The Grand Jury Calls for Informa-
ton from All Kinds of Men.

The grand jury resumed its sitting
yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. Rev.
G. l.. Morrill,, the Eighth ward cham
pion of law and order, was the first wit
ness called. He was closeted with the
jury for over an hour, and it is said, ex-
pressed himself pretty freely on certain
topics. Often and again his voice could
be heard floating down the passage way.
Speaking of the Seance he had with the
jury, he said:
''They examined me pretty closely. l
told them | had lived in several large
cities-Chicago, New York and other
placeS-but Minneapolis was the clean
est and most moral city he had ever

He was all smiles as he made his way
to the clerks Office with an order for his
fee in his hand.
Rev. It. F. Allen was also before the
mighty G. j. Presumably his examina-
ton was in regard to the alleged assig-
nation houses and gambling resorts in
the heart of the city.
1t is said on good authority that the
grand jury proposes to inquire thor
oughly into the gambling houses and

BARDsLEY's REGULATIONS.
report of the Experts on the En-
Treasurer's Books.

PHILADELPHIA, June 4.-The report
OF the expert accountants who have been
investigating the accounts OF ex-City
treasurer Bardsley, were transmitted
to the city council this afternoon by
Mayor Stuart. The work of the ac-
countants Las embraced the accounts of
both the city and the state, but the re-
port only deals with the former, as the
investigation into the condition of the
state funds has not progressed far
enough et to be made public yet. The re-
port IS an extremely yoluminous
BardsleY's accounts with the various
banks. Although the work of the ex-
perts has been kept a secret, still
enough of it was made public at the
hearing of BardSley last week to fore
shadow the report made to-day. The
report shows that on the 2lst of May,
according to the books of the city treas
urer'S returns, there was Oh hand S32,-
2l1, 6OS.5O belonging to the city. OF this
amonnt the books of the city treasurer
show that there was on deposit in the
Keystone bpnk S447. 554.32. This sum is
claimed by Receiver Yardley and Bank
Examiner Drew TO be wrong, and that
the bank books show the actual deposit
to have been S639. 369.l9. With the ex-
ception of this difference between the
books of the city treasurer and the
keystone bank, the experts found the
FUNDS III the city treasurer to represent
the required balance to the credit of the
city, Continuing the report says that
an analysis of the Keystone bank bal
ance, whether the same be made from
the balance shown in the books of the
bank, or those of the city treasurer, in
dicates the true balance of the city in
the Keystone to be S62S, 0S5.O5. This
balance is shown in the report b.
figures to be the correct one. Bardsley
had been carrying as cash in the city
treasury 1896, 043.10 of worthless checks
drawn on the keystone bank. In some
way, not yet definitely known, he
raised this amount in cash and substi-
tuted it for the checks. He then went
to Bank Examiner Drew and asked
that this amount be charged to his ac-
count as city treasurer in the Keystone
bank, and credited to his personal ac-
count. This Dr.. Drew refused to do.
The only other evidence of any criminal
act of BardSley with the city money is
misrepresentation of $50, SIC. This money
belonged to contractors under bonds to
the city and BardSley withdrew it from
bank on his personal checks and used it
to make up part of the S196, 600 that he
required to make good his balance at
the Keystone. Whether Bardsley can
be held liable by the city for this money
is a disputed question, many claiming
that the city has no vested right in it.
The report states that for the years 1899,
1890 and 1891 inclusive Bardsley collect
ed taxes for the state amounting to S4,-
242, SS7, and that the same was duly de-
posted as required. In conclusion the
report says: 1--WE further report that
an Investigation is now in progress,
which will reveal the disposition made
by John Bardsley of state funds by him
received. the particulars of which will
be embodied in report at the earliest
possible moment"

is stopping, asked reporter why the

so closely. The reporter replied that
they did not want to be cleft in case
any Important political developments,
such, for example, as Mr.. Blaire's pos
sible retirement from the cabinet, or
his coming out as a presidential candi-
date. Senator Hale responded: II

has been thought of. And if you ask
me whether l regard it as a prob
ability l will say | don't think
there is the slightest chance of
1t. Mr.. Blaine is not in vigorous
nealth at present, but period of rest
will relnvigorate him and he will return
to his post like lion refreshed. There
never was time when Mr.. Blaine was
more happily placed as far as public
work is concerned. The work in hand
pleases him to dot. You see the pleas

formed it, even when he was not enjoy

his dearest wish is to continue in his
present post and go on with the work
which he has so ably handled to the
present. l don't believe the notion of
resignation has ever occurred to Mr..
Blaine or has ever been suggested to
him by his friends. In regard to future
presidential nominations, | will only
say that Mr.. Blaine can always depend
upon the state of Maine for anything
within its power"

Knew All About Him.

Half dozen Indians stopped in the
city yesterday. They live up on White
Oak Point, and they had been down
land. They stood on Hennepin avenue
in front of the Kasota block, for a few
minutes and allowed the populace to
gaze upon their forms. There
was Old Dude Who Wears Embroid-
cred Pants, the chief of the
party; Man with the Irish-Mug, a
sort of right bower of Embroidered
Pants, Boy-with- Mud-on-His Toes, a
messenger and pack carrier; Oldham
who-Smokes-C lay-Pipe. Most of them
wore post trader clothes, all except En-
broidered Pants, who was wrapped in a
blanket aud gloom. a crowd soon col
lected. Discussion began Immediately.
''Pd like to see those red devils hung
up by the heels and diSemboweled with
a lawn mower" said middle aged gen.
tleman of round stomach, who looked as
if at peace with all the world.
81 tell you the white man deserves
that treatment more than the Indian
put in a thin, dySpeptic-looking indi-
vidual.
ugh! the nasty brutes! Why don't
they wash?" was a woman's comment.
An expert StenOgrapher could not
have caught all the expressions dropped,
but the Indian question was discussed
| in all its phases and from every stand
point. Within ten minutes the silent
portion of the crowd heard more about
red varmints" than any dime
novel ever contained; more kind
words for the Indian than DIR.
Blair ever dreamed of; more
poetical illusions to his free life

ries of hair-breadth escapes than Buff
falo Bill or Pinto Pete ever invented /;
more about everything in any way bear
ing upon the Indian than anybody of
anywhere ever knew at any time.
And it was just an average crowd of
afternoon pedestrians and staid bust
ness men. The Indian bureau wouldn't
have been sin it' in knowledge of the

The Whisky Trust Now Controls

CHICAGO, June A gigantic deal,
negotiations toward which have been
carried on for the past week, was con-
summated this evening at the Audto-
rum. By the papers which were signed
the whisky trust has. at last, acquired
outright the only remaining important

ago George j. Gibson, the sec
rotary of the whisky trust. is now under
indictment. 1t is thought by many that
the transaction may materially affect

dictive feeling toward him entertained
by the Shufeldts. The news of the pur-
chase was surprise, although rumorS

purchased distilleries have been per-
sistently in circulation. a number of

negotiations which have been carried on
with great secrecy in President Green
hut's rooms at the Auditorium, the
board of directors acting for the trust,
Messrs. Schufeldt and Lynch for their
distillery, and President j. w. Sberri-
dan for the Calumet company. The di
rectors present were j. B. Greenhut, of
Peoria; Warren H. Corning, of Cleve-
land; Herbert l.. Terrell, of New York;
w. n. Hobart, of Cincinnati, and
Nelson Morris and p. j. Hen
messy, of Chicago. The sale of both
plants included real estate, mac hinery
stock of goods, patents, trade marks,
brands and the right to continue the
use of the names. In connection with
the purchase the whisky trust directors
disclaim any intention 10 advance prices.
They absolutely refuse to give the pur-
chase price stating merely that the pur-
chase was for cash, and at figure alike
satisfactory to sellers and purchasers.
The price is, however, known to have
been fully commensurate with the gi-
gantic character of the properties pur-
chased, probably involving the transfer
of about $4,000 00.
