WASHINGTON, Jan. 12.-As intimated in
Journal special night before last, very strong
pressure has been brought to bear upon both
Attorney general Garland and President Cleve-
land by Indiana Democrats to have the indict-
ments against Sim Coy and others charged with
tally-sheet forgeries nollied. Among those who
called and made this remarkable request were
Senator Voorhees, and ex-senator Mcdonald 1t
is said that other Indiana Democrats il official

far as demand that a nolle be entered in these
indictments. There is feeling of general
depression among Indiana Democrats in
Washington to night over the sue
cess achieved by the Hon. William
Henderson, who came here with the citizens
petition and secured the employment of Judge
Sol Ciaypool an assistant in the prosecution,
Information about which was learned through
the Journal of yesterday. which arrived to day.
The friends of Senator Voorhees, continue to
deny that he will go to Indianapolis to defend
the indicted men, but the Senator himself does
not give expression to what his real intentions
are. 1t is believed in Washington that the
ical influences will have effect, either at the
throne in this city or through the atmosphere OF
Indianapolis, and that the probabilities are that
some of the scoundrels will have opportunity
of residing at the penitentiary.

has still in his possession the deeds for the lots
bought by the Anarchist defense committee, and
insists upon the latter signing an ironclad
agreement that no other bodies shall be inferred
in the plot; that demonstrations or speeches
are to take place inside the cemetery, and that
monument inscriptions shall be submitted to
the cemetery directors. The Anarchists claim
that all this was part of their bargain quite
the reverse in fact, and that they have been
overreached after having paid their money.
They say the deed was retnrnedt to Mr. Buehlsr
merely to be rewritten in unimportant
particulars. To-day the Anarchists friends
were recalling that Spies and Parsons had ex-
pressed desire to have their bodies creInated,
and canvass showed that many members
the defense committee were in favor of sendingf
the remains to Cincinnati for that purpose.
The general idea was that urns with the ashes
could then easily be preserved in some hall, and
there the Anarchists could assemble for an al
nual demonstration.
