IT Is GETTING WARM.
The Cronin Jury Plot Going all to
Pieces.

CHICAGO, Oct 1.-THE arrest Of Alexander
Sullivan is expected hourly.
The Ne,cs today says: Scarcity Of cash prob
ably prevented the finding" of the Cronin
jury two weeks ago. Bailiff Hanks swore before
the grand jury that the negotiations with Gra-
ham began in August. Hanks moved slowly
because the money was slow in coming. He
saw Graham after concerning the method OF
procuring . juror. After plans had been
agreed on, Hanks wanted to know what assur-
ance he had that money would be forthcoming,
and was informed by Graham that a certain
''trianger" would furnish il. Hanks finally
went to work, but Was not successful. Graham
became impatient and urged him to do some
thing, saying that not one Of the eight men
chosen could be depended on by the defense.
As an explanation why money was not more
plentiful. Graham told Hanks that 1.-The fellow
at the Chicago opera house" was having hard
time to pay the lawyers. In this connection
Graham said that Alexander Sullivan had
raised SS 600 for the defense, but he had been
compelled to give it all to Attorney Forrest,
who was clamoring for money. Another big
sum of money was coming in soon, Graham
said. and Hanks was given to understand that
he could rely on getting some of it.
This 5000 that is claimed to have gone to
Mr.. Forrest is said to have been the canse of
the breach that has been apparent between
Mr.. Foster, Beggs' lawyer, and his associates
for some time. Foster charged that Beggs was
being left out Of consideration, nothing was
being done for him, and his lawyer was not
getting any of the money raised by the ''Tri-
anglers" He protested that Mr.. Forrest
should not have all the money, and in behalf

Being left out in the cold. Mr.. Foster has been
using his peremptory challenges, which are
worth more than money now, for Mr.. Beggs'
sole and exclusive benefit. Not q dollar was
paid the jury bribers; at any rate Hanks got
nothing except promises"
SULLIVAN INVOLVED.
Tom Kavanaugh. the jury briber, who is out
on bail, visited the Office of Alexander Sullivan
and was closeted with that gentleman q con-
siderable time.
II have nothing to say" said Sullivan to a
Times reporter last night, ''save that Mr.. Kava-
naugh was at my Office. Our firm has been for
a long time his legal adviser. and he was to see
us on legal business. If there is anything sus-
picious in that you have the fact. He certainly
was at our Office this afternoon" On no other
phase of the case would Mr.. Sullivan express
himself.
Sullivan was seated at his desk debating a
letter to his private secretary when the officers
| came for the latter. Sullivan and his partner
visited Longcnecker's Office and demanded to
see Stoltenberg during his retention last even

1t is unfortunate for Graham that his initials

he answers the description of the man VINO
filed tho telegram.
The prolonged absence of ]. s. Trude with
whom Graham mas been connected for ten
years, il the source of many rumors His arrest
is among the probabilities and will create a
sensation. HIS brother, Geo. Trude. says that
he is in South Dakota.
