INDICTMENT oUAsHED.
The Charges Against the Late Treasurer Of
the Whisky Trust.

The Charges Against the Late Treasurer Of
the Whisky Trust.
CHICAGO, June 8.-Judge Blodgett this
morning quashed the United States indict-
ment against George J. Gibson, Secretary of
the Whisky Trust, charged with conspiracy
to destroy tEe Shuefeldt Distillery. The
decision was on the ground that the case is
one for the State court and not for the
United States courts, and in which there
was no statute providing a penalty for the
crime for which Gibson was indicted.
The Federal indictment against Gibson
charged him with c0nspiring to bribe Gauger
Dewar to set fire to Shuieldt'S distillery.
Judge Blodgett said the statutes make 1t a
crime for any one TO offer to bribe United
States officer TO do any act in violation of
his lawful duties, bat to bTibe or induce such
officer 10 do an act not contained within the
line Of his official duties infringes upon no
statute of the United States. The distiller-
les are not under the protection of the
United States, ana the Offense charged is not
within Federal cOgnizance. States AttOr-
ney Longrnecker this evening said the
State indictments for having explosives, for
conspiracy to commit felony with parties
unknown and for attempted arson will be
pushed against Gibson.

Sensation Among Orthodox Ministers Caused
by Statements Of Pastor.
ST. LOUIS, June SUI ier the head of
"Creeds Crumbling." an evening paper
quotes Rev. Frank G. Tyrell, pastor Of the
Central Christian Church of this city, as
saying that all signs point to the dissolution
of orthodox creeds. Mr.. Tyrell pointed
out forcibly the discussion in regard to
matters of belief and faith which have
shaken the Protestant church, and from

cannot, he says, accept the belief of the
Trinity of Jesus, and as to why he believed
that Protestant creeds are failing. he said

the Gospel are demanding the right to make
their own deductions, provided they ae-
knowledge the divinity Of Christ. TyrelPs

doX ministers.

Result of Rough Treatment.

Among the brute creation man has no better friend than the horse. With them, however, as with human beings, much depends upon early training. An exchange speaking upon this sub. lect, says that "a gentle horse IS more than 1t would be if not gentle. What Is termed viciousness in horses is fre- quently nothing but sheer timidity, and almost invariably Is the result of rough treatment. Horses would not give way to fear when man approach es them if they had been accustomed to receive always kind and humane treatment. Now that the season for putting the young colts into the hands of trainers IS at hand, it is good time to commence teaching them not to fear the approach of human being. They are fond of being petted, and with constant kindness will become quite doeile. A nubbin of corn. a handful of grain or little sugar otfer- eel occasionally will gain their conf. dence, and they will gradually lose all fear of mankind. The spirit of trust. fitness thus inspired, and the result. ing gentleness of disposition, will last through life, unless adverse influences are allowed to intervene"
