morning issued venire for special grand
jury to. investigate the attempts at jury
fixing in connection with the Cronin trial.

sembled in the courtroom. Ex-Mayor
Roche is foreman of the body. The jury
examined large number of witnesses, and
at 1870 tonight returned indictments
against the following persons: Hanks, Sol
omon, Smith. Kavanagh, O'Donnell and
Joseph Kohn. The latter is fruit-dealer,
who: it IS said, was to go on the jury and
get $1,000 from Hanks.
Hanks has been bailiff for eight or nine
years. having been appointed in Sheriff
Matson's time He has always been re-
garded as a square, man; Mark solomon
was appointed bailiff in Nav, 1888 from the
Tenth ward. Little is known about him.
Fred w. Smith is unknown around the
courthouse. Thomas Kavanagh was en-
gineer at the Insane Asylum during the
'.bocdlers' regime, and was mixed up In
that transaction. He is now in business on
Franklin street, and, strange to say, his
partner was Summoned as juror. When
the examination of the States attorney re-
vealed his connection with Kavanagh, he
was peremptOrily challenged.
1t was about midnight when the special
grand jury adjourned. Their report was
short and formal ia character, except for
an intlmation that the jurors believed the
Gated by the six indictments returned. All
the indicted persons spent the night in the
county Jail.
According to a statement by lawyer Mills,
it was the baiiiff Solomon who first at
tempted TO bribe citizen Tachapat. who was
afterward to be summoned as juror. Sol
Omon also is the man whose confession was
obtained. Solomon turned over to the
States attorney a list of names and ad
dresses said to be prospective corrupt
jurors. Only two of the list had yet been
summoned and neither was yet examined.
Solomon said the list had been furnished to
him by bailiff Hanks while they were seated
in the courtroom just behind the Cronin
suspects whom they were guarding. Hanks
had said $4,000 would be given for fixed
juror-half to the man in the box and half
to the bailiffs. Last night" Mr. Mills's
narrative continued, 1.-The men on the list
One man stated that he had been ap-
preached with an offer of $1,000 to
go on the jury by Fred w. Smith,
hardware manufacturers agent. An
other citizen was also similarly approached
by Smith. "O'Donnell's part, as told by Mr..
Mills. was similar to that of Smiths He
sounded at least one man, and offered him
$1,000. O'Donnell, who was arrested early
that person understood to be Kavanagh,
guaranteed that the money offered would
be forthcoming. The supposed corrupt
veniremen were carefully instructed as to
court, being told how they should answer,
and to be gruf with the lawyers for the de-
tense.
States Attorney Longenecker to-day
emphatically denied the elaborate reports
published this morning. that the records
and exhibits in the CronIn case had been
stolen from his Office, and that his former
stenographer, James Purcell. was the guilty
man. Mr.. Longenecker said it was an out
rage to drag PurcelFs name into such con-
nection. and that the stories of the theft
were fiction.
Boulanger's English Friends.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
LONDON, Oct. 12-The anxiety which
General Boulanger has always shown to
to induced the British public to take ia
vorable view of his prospects, notwithstand-
ing the almost unanimous hostility of the
British press to his pretension. may be ex-
planned on very material grounds. There
is no doubt that q very considerable pOr-
tiOn of the funds which have been put to SO
many questionable uses in the recent French
elections were subscribed In London, pre-
sumably to great extent by members of
the French colony in the English capital,
but by no means wholly: If ever full list
be found to include not o few London spec
ulators and financiers, at least one English
peer and several members of the House of
Commons, of whom no one would ever
dream as being likely to interest them
| selves actively in French politics. Gen.
Boulanger owes great deal to the
romantic liberality of women. One French
lady of rank residing in London sold her
| jewels In order to make him a present of
| the proceeds, and another confesses to have
| run herself into deDt to swell the Generals
| finances. Until the result of the second
| elections of last Sunday became definitely
known. BOulanger continued to be lionized
| in certain quarters. Visions of another
Napoleon III seem to have filled the heads
| of many English hostesses. They were
proud to meet the General, and acknowl-
| edged him in public with evident pleasure
| at his condescensiOn in recognizing them.
| and seemed to believe that they would be
| bright stars at his court when he rebuilt
| the Tuilleries. The people of France have
| dispelled the illusion and the would-be
| asteroids have become asterisks.
