Investigation OF Alexander Sulllvan's Con-
nection with the Tragedy Goes Over
Until the Next Jury.
CHICAGO, July 1.-The clock in Judge
6heperd's court room registered the hour Of
$40 Saturday afternoon when the special
grand jury, which has been investigating
the Cronin mystery, filed into the room with
their report. Every Juror answered to his
name as the clerk called the roll, and as the
call was completed Judge Sheperd addressed
foreman Clough, "Hsve you report to
makel" 1--WE have" and document upon
which all eyes fastened with eager interest,
was handed TO the Judge.
'Have you any further business, gentle
menf' was the next query.
II think we have finished what we have
10 do.n
"Then you may be excused from any fur
ther service
This conversation ended the work of the
grand Jury.
The report indicts seven men, Of whom
three were already in Jail under previous
Indictment Coughlin, p. o. Sullivan and
Woodruff-and a fourth, John f. Beggs,
was under arrest on suspicion. The fifth
man was Martin Burke, the suspect in Gus
tody at Winnipeg. The sixth and seventh
men indicted are st!ll at large-Patrick
Cooney 1.-THE Fox" and John Kunze a
friend Of detective Coughlin, whose alleged
completely was brought TO the attention OF
the authorities only within the past two
days. Within an hour after the return Of
the indictment capias bad been made out
for John f. Beggs, the senior guardian df
Camp No. 20, of the Clan Ma Gael, whose
place Of detention has been down. town
police station. He was at once transferred
TO cell near the other accused in murder
er's row at the county jail.
None Of the prisoners or suspects were
represen'e G ! in court when the Cronin grand
Jury reported to Judge Shepherd. Fewper-
sons at all were presentbesides officials, ex-
cept number Of newspaper mon.
After the formaiities Of the long inquisi-
tion were ended, States Attorney Longe-
necker told number OF reporters that he
had not yet dropped the case in Its relation
10 Alexander Sullivan. The States Attor-
ney claimed that the grand jury had been
unable, owing TO tina expiration Of It's term,
10 hear all the evidence that could be pre-
sented against Mr.. Sullivan. The inquiry
as TO Sullivan would be continued to the
next Jury.
Kunze, the Cronin suspect whose name
became talked about for the first time Sat
urday, Is picture frame maker who spent
good deal Of time around the Chicago ave-
uue police station TO which detective Cough
lin was attached. Kunze Is supposed to
have driven Coughlin 70 the Carlson cot
tage the night of May 4. States Attorney
Longenecker talks very positively about
having evidence enough 10 surely hang
Coughlin and KunZe. II is intimated that
the State has in reserve two witnesses who
will swear TO seeing Coughlin and Kunze
near the cottage that night and equally di-
rect testimony against Cooney and Burke.
One Of the witnesses is said 10 be q member
Of Camp 20. The evidence against Beggs Is
understood to consist chiefly Of suspicious
passages In his correspondence with his su-
perior officer in the Clan-Na- Gael, Edward
5pcllman, Of Peoria. .k.1 RI
Foreman Clough, OF the grand Jury, said
yesterday that more damuable conspiracy
was never conceived and executed. All of
the men named in the indictment were
deeply implicated In the murder Of DR..
Cronin. John ONeil, another juror, said
he believed DR.. Cronin was sentenced "a
death in Camp 20 OF the Clan Nat Gael.
Kunke, who has hardly been mentioned In
connection with the case until his indict-
ment he said, was surely one Of the mur-
derers. His connection with the murder, he
