morning returned three indictments
against Dominick Wagner, the priest

a girl under IS years of age and the
third for abduction. The grand jury is
now investigating charges of embezzle-
mont preferred against the priest by
members of his congregation.
The three indictments returned this
morning will probably be nolle pressed,
the priest having married the girl Satur-
day night, and she cannot be compelled
to appear against her husband The
priest will likely be prosecuted on the
charge of embezzlement. however, as the
expert who examined the books Of the
parish says there is a shortage of $4,000.
Bishop Burke, who reached home from
Rome this morning says before he left
three months ago Wagner admitted that

CHICAGO, Oct. IF the law is not
allowed to take Its course concerning
our men involved in crime the torch may
be applied in those cities where the out
RACES occur" These words were uttered
last night at the close of the
regular evening services by
Rev. T. NJ. Townsend, col
ored, pastor of Quinn chapel, twenty
Fourth street and Wabash avenue. An
audience of a thousand colored people
applauded the sentiment and rose to
their feet to further show their appre
citation Of their pastors stand.
Rev. Mr.. Townsend's sermon had been
called forth by the report in the MORN
ing papers OF the outrage upon Neal
Smith at Chattanooga. When it was
finished the pastor gave out the hymn,
Thou sleepetb, justice; awake"
At the conclusion of the singing Rev.
Mr.. Townsend askedsthe audience to re-
main a short time. II want no one to
leave the house while | am speaking"
He produced clipping from a morn
ing paper, read the account of the tor
turing of Neal Smith, and then said:
This must stop in a Christian land. If
the law IS not 10 be allowed to take its
course concerning our men involved In
crime the torch must be applied in those
cities where the outrages occur"
The preacher delivered these sentences
in an impassioned manner, and as he flu
ished fJr a moment there was silence.
and then the entire audience rose and
applauded.
This quick endorsement of his position
seemed 10 confuse the Rev. Mr.. Town
send, and ne remained silent. One Of
the congreg egation shouted I'VE rise to en-
. dorse what you have said"
The audience was then dismissed, and
slowly left the church.
