is GE ORGE INDICTED
A RumOr to That Effect From the
Grand jury Room.

A Rumor to That Effect From the
Grand jury Room.
Fred George, the ex-poice clerk, has
been indicted by the grand jury on a
charge of embezzlement-this was the
rumor current in court house circles
yesterday, founded upon what is consid-
cred excellent authority. Ever since
the present grand Jury was sworn in
and took Its seat there has been
q great deal of speculation as
to what would be the final outcome of
the police scandal investigation. The
grand Jurors were determined not to go
hastily in the matter, and all the wit
nesses obtainable were examined. After
this the jury adjourned for several
weeks and the jurors considered the
evidence Individually and at their
leisure. When the jury again con-
vened the case was taken up and
an agreement was reached at once. 1t
was thought for some time that it was
eX-Chief Henderson whom the grand
jurors were after, still it seems that the
charges against Henderson were all
cleared away, and this left as the only
alternative in finding bill against
the clerk, which the Jury. it is claimed,
the man will be brought forward
who has for a goodly number OF years
occupied position of trust. and who. if
he will, so it is thought, can give the
state an opportunity of gaining all the
knowledge necessary 10 faSten the guilt
on the right person, even if he be not
George, as the trial Will determine. 1t
will also give George an opportunity to
explain the whole situation.
Whatever the outcome. the trial, if it
reaches the court room, gives promise
of becoming one Of the most interesting
ones that the Hennepin district court
has ever seen, as the witnesses to be eX-
amined are those who occupy positions
high in trust and estimation in the mu-
nicpality.
The grand jury finally succomDed to
the heat in spite Of the brainy effects
of William DonaldSOn'S nerve mixture.
and adjourned for the day at 4 o'clock,

STRYCHNINE POISON.
But by Whom administered Is
Not Yet Known.

A peculiar case was brought to the at
tention of Coroner Spring at $50 yester
day morning, at which time he was
called to 2206 Washington avenue north
TO investigate the sudden death of An
drew Hundoo, who died at 4:30 a. m.
Mr.. Huudoo came home to his wife and
children about 9:30 last evening. He
complained of the heat and signifed
his intention of sleeping i'll the yard Oh
the grass. The family retired leaving
him to follow his own wishes. About
$3.50 in the morning girl named Ander-
son, employed about the place, woke up
and saw Hundoo still asleep in the yard.
Shortly after this one OF the neigh
bors, Otto Malchow, living about
block from Hundoo's house, heard
groaning in the alley which runs in the
rear of his house. He dressed, and OH
arriving in the alley he found HundoO
lying on the ground in a spaSm. His
linus seemed to have the peculiar rigid
tytbat comes from poisoning by strych-
nine, and Malchow says he was mutter-
He says the words he heard were these:
That - - poisoned me. He runs
- poor 0uSinets anyway"
Another neighbOr who was also at
tracted to the spot heard him mutter-
ing something, but is not sure as to
Weat he said. Hundoo was picked up
and carried back to sthe house, where
he died about one hour later.
About noon yesterday the body was
taken to. the undertaking troomS of
Sundseth IL Byorum and an autopsy
held, conducted by Drs. Drew and Don
aldson, undoubted traces of strychnine
poison being found. The next step in
the case is to discover by whom it was
administered. Hundoo was hard
drinker, SO much so that it is said of late
he has scarcely gone home sober. More
than this, he has threatened to take his
own life. Some days ago he stepped
into the furniture store of Sundseth u
Byorum, where he was owing a small
bill, and asked if they were in
hurry to get their money. "Well. you
won't get it very soon, for | intend to
drown myself" Suspicious appear
ances have been developed also along
another line, but thus far it can only be
conjectured how the poisoning came
about. So far as can be learned no
physician attended the man. The
matter is now i'll the hands of the police
for investigation.

SHOCKED TO DEATH.
Electrician Frank Arnith
Meets Death at a Power
House Switch.
He Loses His Life While At
tempting to Pull Out
6 Plug.
A Brave Mother Saves Her
Child at Her Own Great
Peril.
Grand Jury Said to Have
Found an Indictment
Against George.

The fatal electrical fluid claimed an
other victim last night in Minneapolis
In a shocking and terrible manner, again
demonstrating that the current of cleo
tricity used upon the trolley wires is
sufficient to produce instant death to
mankind. The unfortunate electrocu-
tion of last night was not due TO the
trolly wire itself, but nevertheless
the fatal circuit and the pressure were
the same as are carried upon the street
wires. The dead man is Frank Arnlth,
electrician for the street railway com
pany at the power house at the corner
OF Washington avenue north and Third
street. Arnith has been long i'll the
employ of the company, and has
been always considered careful and a
competent employe. Last night at 7:30
the unfortunate man went TO the switch
bosrd as usual to change the circuits.
AT this hour there is change
in the schedule upon which the
street ears run, which change
necessitates an alteration in the
circuits as operated during
the day. Arnith went to the switch
board and raised his left hand to the
plug to pull it out. He had done the
same thing hundred times before, and
was thoroughly accustomed to the duty,
which shows that something un-
expected happened, and WHICH will
never be known, or that the very
familiarity with the work had made
him careless. Possibly the plug refused
to come out, or perhaps Arnith lost his
balance. for lie was seen TO put up his
other hand to the switch board, grasp
another plug and keel heavily back
ward. The whole accident was but the
work of second, and so totally uneX-
pected was it that no one had time to
grasp the details of the affair. Arnith's
death was not instantaneous. For
second he lay prone upon the floor, with
his face upturned, and wearing an
agoniZed expression. Suddenly he
seemed to regain consciousness, for he
made a pitiable effort to regain his feet,
in which he partially succeeded. The
unfortunate man staggered and reeled
for distance of fifteen feet, and then
fell for the last time full upon his face.
But a rev seconds had elapsed; but by
this time the accident had been
noticed, and willing hands placed
the man upon an improvised
cot, but the electrocution had been COM
plete. Arnith was dead. His burned
hands told the tale, and showed the
cause of his death. His remains were
removed to Warmers morgue. He
leaves wife ard child and was 2S years
of aye.

Liquid Oxygen by the Pint.

Boston Journal.
Hrof. Dewar, of the Royal Institution
at London, has been conducting some
highly interesting experiments recently
in the llquefaction of gas. Up to fif-
teen years ago oxygen and nitrogen
we're regarded as 'permanent cases."
these two having defined all the efforts
of Faraday to change their conditions.
In 1877 CailIetet and Pictet were able
to reduce small quantities of both
gases to rapidly evanescent blu
ish mists. but so evanesccnt were
they as to be useless tor investigation.
By pressure, freezing and surrounding
vacuum, Prof. Dewar, however. has been
able to liquefy not only oxygen. but air
by the pint, ,and to retain them for hours
in that form. Already the professor has
been able to establish the most i'm
portant properties of oxygen-its pure
azure color, Its high magnetic power and
Its characteristic spectrum-and even
more striking triumphs are promised
him in the future.

Fngilsh Hatred orGfadstone.

The hatred of Gladstone is almost uni
versal among the upper and upper mid
die classes in England. This hatred,
too, finds expression in violence Of
language which is seldom met with in
any country except during period Of
revolution or civil war, and has long
been banished from English social and
political life One hears him in the best
circles treated as an old villain, for
whom capital punishment would be too
good, and frantic desire for his death is
openly uttered. That "G. o. M" stands
for Goods Only Mistake" is one of the
grim jokes of the Conservative clubs,
and old ladies will avow their willing
ness to walk miles with peas in their
shoes to see him hanged. Stories Of his
abandoned prohigacy are of course not
generally told in public, the subject be-
ing a delicate one, but they are very
prominent part of the Gladstone legend,

large coil of new rope with him,
which he proceeded to recoil care
fully into two piles. When this was
done, he made one end of the rope
fast securely around tree and the
other around his body. Then he
picked up one pile of the rope and
hung it carefully over his arm and
walked coolly into the water.
Straight out he swan, with the
sure stroke of an expert and power
ful swimmer, until the rope on the
bank had all run out. Then, coil by
coil, he let the rope on his arm slip
off also, while the current carried
him downward toward the old snag
and Matt. When only few coils Of
the rope remained upon his arm, he
reached it in safety.
II didn't think you would come and
help me-" said Matt family as he
grasped the outstretched hand of his
friend. DO you know, Sang, l

Neither would l, Matt, said Sang.
But today it is different Now, how
ever, we must be getting away from
here while we can. Just let me make
the end of the rope fast around your
body, and the current will soon swing
us into the bank without much exer-
ton on our part.
Matt was weak and worn from
long exposure and anxiety and sub
mitted quietly to everything Sang
proposed. When all was ready, they
let themselves down into the water
and in a few minutes were safely
landed by the current against the
shore.
The evening sun was shining bright
