William Hammond, Sixty years OH,
whose hair is pure white, was a prisoner
before Justice Chester, in Camden, yes

lated against him by his fifteen-year-old

which happened after midnight on Satur-
day at their home, Tenth and Benson
streets, on the outskirts of the Eighth
ward. She said that it was not the first
attempt, and she had been prevented
from entering a complaint with the
authorities on account of threats made by
her father that in the event of the girl or
her mother making known to outsiders OF
his wrong-doing that he would kill them
both.
The mother of the girl accompanied her
to the Justices Office and corrOborated
her statement of her husbands action on
Saturday. She also said that an elder
daughter had been compelled TO leave
husbands cruel and inhuman treatment,
and that he had been convicted in the
courts and served a sentence for a similar
crime on another child.
Thomas Bryant, who occupies the front
part of the house, stated that about a
month ago he was called to the girls bed
room by her cries for help, and when he
saw a man standing by her bedside he
fired several shots from q revolver at the
intruder, who proved to be the father Of
the child. The Justice committed Ham
mond to prison for trial, without bail.

other Items of Interest from Var
ious Parts of the State.

A woman named Mrs. Mary Apologize
residing on Broad street, gave Harry
Prince, of Centre street, Trenton, a good
cowhiding recently. Mrs. Apologize
a that Prince has been persistent in
his calls upon her. Several times he has
insisted on entering her domicile. One
day recently he entered her store and she
claims that he insulted her. At any rate
she drew a rawhide from under the
counter and laid it upon his back in blows
so thick and fast that the man retreated
into the street. Mrs. Apologize followed
and continued to belabor him.
Notwithstanding this treatment Prince
returned the mex day, and Mrs. Apple
gate ordered him away. He again in
suited her, she says. Then she laid for
him, and the following day, seeing him
on the street, she again attacked him
with the rawhide, and whipped him well.

BLoOMTNGToN. H., Oct. 14.-This city was
profoundly excited to-day over the sensational
disappearance of Lester Green, a prominent
citizen and a married man of family, and
Mrs. Baker, wel-known mntron of the city,
a woman of forty, the wife of an engineer of
the Chicago & Alton railway. The couple left
Saturday night, and there is no doubt of their
having eloped together. Green is a man OF
about forty-fve years, and has been in
business here twenty-five years He has for
five years been member of the city council,
and during the last year was acting mayor.
He is the present street commissioner
He failed in business last year and
has been drinking heavily of late. lie and
Mrs. Baker have openly been infatuated with
each other, and the elopement is not a great
surprise. On Saturday Green borrowed
money from his friends to the extent
of perhaps $1,000 and left a large
number of wOrkmen unpaid. Mrs. Baker took
81 800 of her own money and 500 of her hus-
bands and several hundred of borrowed
money. Green leaves his wife and four
children penniless. 1t was learned to-
night that Green and his paramour
we're seen on Sunday morning at Downs, this
county, where they drove in a hack and took
east-bound train OF the Ohio. Indiana &
Western. Also that their baggage was checked
here for Mansfield Ill., on that road.

Through an oversight on the part of a train
dispatcher at Cincinnati five men lost their
lives by collision on the Big Four Saturday
night 4 wrecking train had been sent out to
place on the track a car which had been ditched
near Delhi, a few miles from Cincinnati.
The wrecking train had completed its
work and started to return to
Cincinnati. In the meantime an extra freight
train, No. 81. started out from Cincinnati. The
wreckIng train had the right of way, but the
train dispatcher forgot to notify the freight
that the wrecking train was on the road. Near
Rapid Run the two trains ran into each
other. The cars were thrown into a heap
thirty feet high. The engineer of the freight.
j. NJ. York, who lives at 313 Fletcher-ave. this
city, was thrown from his cab and miraculously

closures Promised.
CHICAGO, ILL.,. Oct. 14-In Judge Bakers
court to-day a special grand jury, to further IN
vestigate the charges of iury-bribing. sworn.
1t is composed of well-known citizens. S. B.
Chase was chosen as foreman. Judge Baker
briefly addressed the jury, telling its members
that above all things they must remember to
observe strict secrecy in regard to the matters
brought under their observation. The judge
then read the law regarding the penalties
to be enforced in case of violation OF the
secrecy of the grand jury room. At o'clock
the grand jury returned an indictment against
John Graham, as well true bills against the
six men indicted Saturday.
The excitement about the criminal court
building was so intense this afternoon that it
was found necessary to lock and bar the out
side doors. John Graham, the clerk in A. 8.
Trude's office, who is now under indictment,
was arrested Sunday night about u o'clock,
and has been under lock and key ever since.
He was the man who was to put up the money
with which to bribe the jurors and it is as
serted by Judge Longenecker that the evidence
against him is very conclusive.
After presenting the indictments the grand
jury adjourned for the afternoon, but the
state attorney says the case, by no means
ends with the present Indictment but will be
very much more far reaching than the most
sanguine can suppose. Other indictments may
be expected to follow in short order. When
the matter is ripe the state attorney, or one
of his associates will give 70 the reporters de-
tailed account of another branch of the jury
bribing conspiracy.
The indictment returned by the grand jury
this afternoon is a joint bill against John
Graham, Mark Solomon, Alexander l.. Hanks
and Fred w. Smith.
But little information about Graham could
be secured at the office of Lawyer A. 5. Trude,
where Graham has a desk. He had been there
for the last twelve or fourteen years and had
lived in Chicago ever since the great fire.
Lawyer A. B. jerks said Graham had never
been admitted to the bar and had never prac-
ticed law. "He was simply a clerk" said he
"and he occupied desk in Mr.. Trude's re-
eeption ROOM"
'NO, he has never been in trouble before, at
least not to my knowledge. | have never
heard that he was connected with any jury
bribing, nor that he had any trouble with his
family. He was the last man that should
suspect of being connected with this business.
| don't think they will find anything against
him. He has not been connected with the
Cronin case in any way, so far as | know"
This evening it was learned from the state
attorney that the clerk. Graham, is the sup
posed prominent citizen" whose mysterious
confinement in the Chicago-ave. and Larrabee
st. police station gave rise TO many sur
mises Graham gave a ten-thOusand-dollar
bond this evening and was released.

SOUTH DAKOTA POLITICS.

Exceedingly Lively One.

The Fight Over the Senatorial Question an
Exceedingly Lively One.
PIERRE S. Dak.. Oct. 1.-THE political pot
is boiling at terrific rate here tonight. The
members of the legislature are all on the
ground, and the real estate boom falls into
insignifcance in comparison with politics.
The senatorial question being the only issue,
the entire fight centers on the question.
Pettigrew, Moody. Edgeiton and Wardell are
the only candidates enlisted so far, but possi-
bly, Melette may jump into the swim.
The plan concocted this afternoon is to nomi-
nate Pettigrew first, and he will undoubtedly
be elected with grand hurrah, leaving Moody
and Edgerton to finish the scrap. Moody
is conceded to have the advantage, but
the result will hinge in the way in
which Pettigrew will throw his influence.
Every attempt is being made to have Edgerton
withdraw and leave clear field for
Moody. A caucus will be held to-mor-
row morning, at which time Edeerton
will be formally requested to withdraw.
1t is estimated that there are 10000 strangers
in the city, brought here by the meeting of the
legislature and the real estate excitement.

THROWING OUT VOTES.

tana-Counting in Their Men.
HELENA, Mont, Oct 1.-THE canvassers in
Silver Bow county to-day threw out the vote
in what is kr own as the railroad precinct,
which gave the democratic majority of ia.
This action, if =. is upheld by the courts, will
seat the entire republican delegation from that
county (eleven members) and overcome the
democratic majority in the legislature, and give
the republicans control of the legislature. The
democratic managers will ask Judge Dewolfe
for a writ of mandamus to compel the canvass
ers to count the rejected precinct. The throw
ing out of this vote. while reducing Toole's vote
for governor, does not overcome his majority.
