FOUND SEVEN INDICTMENTS.
The Chicago Grand Jury Finishes Il
Work in the Cronin Case.

The Chicago Grand Jury Finishes Its
Work in the Cronin Case.
CHICAGO, July The special grand jury
Investigating the Cronin murder has at last
got through its work and presented its re-
port The indictments found are against the
following persons: Daniel Coughlin, John F.
Beggs, Patrick O'Sullivan, Martin Burke, Pat
rick Cooney, Frank Woodruff, John Kunze
All of these men were already under arrest
except kunze, who has disappeared, but is
indicted as the man who drove Cronin to the
cottage on the night of the murder 1t is the
belief of the grand jury, after the hearing of
the evidence, that Cronin was killed by
Coughlin, Cooney and Burke, and that z.
O'Sullivan was present in the cottage when
the blows were dealt, if not actually en-
gagged in the bloody work They also believe
that Coughlin arranged the details and struck
the murderous blows.
Lawyers Sullivan and Beggs.
The fact that A. l.. Sullivan was not in
cluded in the list was a surprise to most peo-
pie but Judge Longenecker says that he was
left out for several reasons, one being that
the jury id not have time to hear the evil
dence. The case has not been dropped, how
ever, and viii be considered by another
grand jury. Another reason was that the
prosecution had more evidence, but it was
not complete, and an indictment would have
brought the fight into court, where the state
would have been called upon To state its
evidence, which was not considered
good policy at this stage of the matter
Beggs, it is believed, had no hand in the work
outside the secret meetings of the inner cir
Gle of Camp No 20, where, it is asserted, the
removal of Cronin was determined The
officials are confident that several in the
above list will swing for the crime, and ate
also confident that this crime, like the murd r

1t Ii not very surprising that
there should be number of cleo.
ton contests arising out Of the re-
cent election for county officers in
this state. In most Of the counties
the manner in which these election
were conducted was calculated to
invite contests. The fact that gem
orally nominations were not made
brought about scramble for the offs
ces, and the counties were secured
tor votes by the different candi;lat>
es. Frequently votes were cast by
people who were not qualified to
cast them, and in other intoncse,
while it would be difficult to show
that bribery was practised, there
was enough to warrant The suspic-
ion of vote buying, AMI to cause
defeated candidates to hope to
change the result by contests.
The remedy for elections Of this
kind is nominations. In the coun-
tics ii which nominations were
made, the only excitement was that
which was incident to the mass
meetings or primaries. The elec~
tons were held quietly and were
free from unpleasantness. Nomin-
ations not only secure quiet cleo
tions and prevent contests in most
instances, but they result generally
| in the election of better officers.
! When no nominations. the cans
didates having the greatest intfunce
among certain classes Of people are
very likely to be Unsuccessful ones.
Under the nomination system in
this state at present the election
is virtually settled in advance, and
it is settlod'by the people who are
qualified, both legally and Intellect
ually. to decide aS to the relative
fitness for Office of tie different can,
dididates for the nomination.
The people, alter almost every
county election, see the Importance
of making nominations ;bat they
seem TO forget it before the II ext
election comes round. The senti-
mcnt in favor of nominations is
spreading, however, though very
gradually, and it is probable that
in nearly if notquite all OF tn ecoun>
ties Of the staetit will soon be the

A Beautiful Anonymous Poem.

The following lines by an un-
known arthor were found written
on the crumbling walls of the old
Blandford church of PETERSBURG.
Va, in 1871. The church was
built in 1885:
Thou art crumbling to the dust old
pile,
Thou art hast'ning to thy fall,
And round thee in thy loneliness
Cl.ngs the ivy to the wall.
The worshippers are scattered now
Who kneIt before thy shrine,
And silence reigns where anthems
In days of "Auld Lang syne."
And sadly signs the wand'ring wind
Where Oft in years gone by,
Prayers rose from many hearts 10
Him,
The Highest of the High.
The tramp of many a busy foot
That sought thy aisles is DER,
And many a weary heart around
Is still-forever more.
How doth ambitions. hope take
wing
How droops the spirit now;
We hear the distant city's din;
The dead are mute below
The sun that shone upon their
paths,
Now guilds their lonely graves;
The zephyr which once famed
their brows
The grass above them waves.
On! could we call the many buck
Who've gathered here i'll vain
Who've careless roved where We do
nov,
Who'll never meet again,
How would our very souls he
stirred;
To meet the earnest gaze
OF the lovely and tie beautiful,
The light Of other days,

Mahone's old soldiers say that he was

might be expected, most careful and
provident of the comfort of his men.

Joined some of the men were detailed
for picket duty on a part of the line
where the utmost quiet and vigilance
were necessary, for the Union forces
were on the alert and pressing closer
and closer. 1t was after midnight
when Malone set out to visit his out
posts What was his establishment and
wrath, as he crossed the little ravine
which led from the Union line to the
Crater to hear a voice singing, or
shouting, n Southern song and to see
outlined against the sky the figure of a
stalwart sentinel of his own command,
who was marching up and down with
the butt of his gun in the air. Malone
rushed up the slope with barred sword,
and as he got near the soldier exclaim-
ed in a suppressed voice, half choked
with anger:
What in thunder are you doing2
who are you? Where do you belong?"
The sentinel stopped. brought his gun
to his shoulder, and said:

The Republicans of Virginia.

The Republican factions in Virginia
who have been "out of tune" for q
long time. have been brought together
on an equitable basis of agreement,
through the kindly offices of members
of the National Executive Committee.
and there is every reason to hope that
as time wears on they will be so
closely united as to justify the expec-
tation that in the near future they will
be able to swing the Old Dominion in
to the Republican column. The main
cause of the dissatisfaction was the
arbitrary course alleged to have been
pursued by General Malone. This
belligerent leader has made conces-
sions of Importance to the Groner-
Brady opposition, and the result will
be the remodeling of the party rules
and the enlargement of the liberty
of the individual voters. The
agreement has the sanction of the
President, who has shown his dispc-
sition to advance the interests of the
party as a whole by recognizing the
claims of both factions Pittsburgh
