Dorser,s Oounsel Indlcted.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Feb. 26.-The Grand
Jury has found an indictment against A. B.
Williams, one of the Star Route counsel,
specially employed by Dorsey. The formal
charge is that of receiving stolen
goods, and is based upon his action
as counsel for the parties charged with
having stolen watch, and other valusbles
from Miss Ellis over year ego, and Mr..
Williams says the charge Is absurd and the
Outerowth of i'll will of the Department OF
Justice, because he has taken an active
part in the defense of Dorsey. The
latter has written q long letter 10 Williams
declaring that the present indictment is al
act of persecution against himself Dorsey
through his counsel. Dorsey also says
in this letter that an attempt will
be made to Iadict Colonel Ingersoll
upon the charge of defsming the Depart
ment of Justice. Mr.. Williams thinks this
idea is not seriously entertained, but says
the Department. of Justice has endeavored
TO hnd grounds for such an Indictment
against Colonel Ingersoll.

than probable he had told French
that he could initiate Dorsey

came near being attended with serious
results. Four prisoners, Damed Will
liams, Ritchie, Banks, and Billy the Kid,

for prompt action on the part of the
guards, would have succeeded. Being
near the outer gate they caught the
turnkey. Mr.. Fredley, and keeping him
between them as protection from the
guns OF the guards, they rushed out OF
the enclosure. Before they were many
feet from the gate, however, the turnkey
got loose from them, and the guards.
with their guns in position, called upon
them to turn back. As the game was
up they obeyed, and were locked up for
the night. They each had rock tied
in handkerchief as weapon. In the
morning, while the prisoners were in the
main hall, after breakfast, the Superin.
tendent of the prison called for these
four men, in order to punish them. They
detied his authority and refused to come
out. As there were about seventy.tivt

The Superintendent then gave them
their choice between obedience and gun,

willingness to accept the latter they
were put in irons. Capt. Meeden says
