NEW YORK'S POLICE.
EXTRAORDINARY GRAND .uTRY
CENSURES THEM.
Twenty-Five Indictments Presented
"A Most Horrible State of Affairs
Revealed.

New York, March 1S.-The extraordi-
nary grand jury, which has been out
since Jan. z, reported today. Foreman
Leggett handed up twenty-five indict-
ments and presentment censuring the
police department.
Court adjourned until o'clock this
afternoon. 1t is expected in the mean
time that several arrests will be made
and Justice Graham will fix the bail
this afternoon. The grand jury was
not discharged.
The presentment alludes at the out
set to the work of the Lexow investi-
eating committee as having spent
many months in collecting evidence
which, while ample to satisfy the pub
lie of the existence of corruption, fell
short in most cases of that which the
law requires to establish guilt.
The following passage occurs in the
presentment: The circumstances and
testimony offered have tended to show
financial consideration and in some
cases lax administration Indeed. the
publicity with which the law is violated
and the immunity from arrest enjoyed
by the law breakers is inconsistent
with the laws.

tinues, 1.-The great body of subordinate
officers are honest and capable men,

Recently Discovered at the Mint
Jail Doors Are Yawning For Sew
era1.

Carson, New, March 1S.-Andrew Ma
son, government mint inspector and
superintendent of the New York as
say department, has been in Carson
for the past week inspecting the af-
fairs at the United States mint in this
city. An article in this evenings Tri-
bune to that effect has given rise TO
rumors that something was wrong at
the mint, as heretofore the presence of
government inspector has been
known to the public on the day of ar
rival The fact of so much secrecy
caused ugly rumors, and this evening
it was learned from Hirsch Harris,
melter and refiner, that something was
wrong at the mint and a shortage had
been discovered about a month ago.
It was learned that something over
$50 900 had mySteriOuSly disappeared,
and that five clean-ups, which were
made in quick succession, as it was
thought some clerical error had been
made, failed to reveal the cause OF the
shortage. Refined gold and silver to
that amount has disappeared from the
department, and Inspector Mason ex-
poets to be able to clear up the mys-
terry in a day or two. Mr. Harris also
stated the reason so mich secrecy was
observed that it was deemed advis-
able not to give the matter publicity as
that might prevent the discovery and
recovery of the loss. No direct
charges have been made, as yet, and
it will probably be some days before
the mystery is unravelled. The pres
ence of General Bob Heating in Car
son. to whom several mint employees,
including Superintendent Adams, owe
their positions. is a significant fact.

this character was practicable.
During our entire session no pollce
official, high or low, has volunteered
one particle of aid, nor has any evil
dence whatever been forthcoming from
police officials, except such as has been

In conclusion, the report says:
The enjoyment of the executive head

Ingraham had signed warrants for the
indicted officials, the corridors of the
big building commenced to fill. Grim

cases were soon on hand, but professed
to have no business in view, Being
there simply through curiosity.

lieved her in league with cattle rus
tiers. Some think rustlers committed
the crime for revenge on account of
evidence furnished by the woman
against them. Persons passing the
ranch Saturday found the body and
oner found $50 on the woman's person,
which is regarded as certain evidence
that the crime was not committed by
trampS as at first supposed. Her Strug
gle for life had been a hard one. The
bedding and clothing of the woman
were torn and scattered about the
building. Her shoes had evidently
been removed, probably by herself
preparatory to going to bed, when
surprised by the lynchers. The woman
had evidently been outraged before
she was strung up and everything
points toward a premeditated plan
for the consumation of the dastardly
deed. No warrants have yet been
made, but a meeting of the citizens
of the neighborhoed was held yester-
day and it was decided prompt meas
ures. should be taken, and it is expected
that another and possibly several
hangings will take place before long.
Several persons are under suspicion
and the parties will be taken and COM
PEELED to confess. The latest report
comes that a man named Hunt is i'm
plicated in some way with the lynchers
and it is thought he can be forced In
to a confession. A number Of the al
legged rustlers were recently arrested
and taken to Spring View, where they
broke Jail and escaped to the reser-
walton, where they were afterwards
recaptured and convicted. The prox-

Donnelly, Populist candidate for gov

cial announcement that the Peoples
party of Minnesota will not join the
free silver coinage party. Mr.. DON
nelly says:
'The idea of our party deserving the
principles laid down in the Omaha
platform and consenting to be the tail
to an exclusive free silver party is alb
surd. The Peoples party has other
fully as important plans for the anne
Iteration of the condition of mankind.
If the silver men are earnest in their
move let them join our party. We
have always favored the free coinage
of silver, but we have other plans in
view which we cannot abandon. Had
the silver men stood by our party in
the last election we should have car
ried Colorado, Montana. Washington,
Idaho, Wyoming. and perhaps other
states. Instead of doing this they said
that the Republican party in those
states was in favor of the free coinage
of silver and that therefore it was
good enough for them. If that is so,
I do not see wy the same party is
not good enough for them STILL"

ANOTHER OUTRAGE.
AMERICAN VESSEL SUNK BY 4
SPANISH WARSHIP.
1t is Alleged That at Least Sixteen
Persons Were Aboard When She
Went Down.

New York, March 1S.-A special dis
patch to a morning paper from Tampa,
Fla, says: Passengers on the steamer
which arrived from Havana, bring
news of reports in circulation there of
further depredations by Spanish cruis-
ers on American vessels along the Gu
ban coast.
The latest report is to the effect that
the Spanish gunboat Arcedo fired into
and sunk an American schooner off
Puerto Padre. 1t is reported that the
crew of the vessel, numbering sixteen
persons, persisted. 1t IS not known
whether the schooner had arms or car
ried an expedition of Cubans. 1t was
reported in Havana that the schooner
had sailed from Key West. Inquiries,
however, failed to show any boat miss
ing or unreported except those engaged
in legitimate trade. Many called re-

New York, March 1S.-There arrived
at the st. Dennis hotel last night a
young man who, since Wednesday
morning last, has been flying to this
city at the fastest possible rate with
piece of highly interesting news. His
name is Thomas Gordon. and he is a
member Of the cooperative community
OF liberal A1ormons. which for the past
Y years has been established at Bluff.
San Juan county, Utah.
In 1887 young Gordon was sent, az
the expense Of the community, to the
University Of Pennsylvania to receive
an education to ft him to become a
teacher in the graded high schools. He
took the full academic course was
graduated in 1891, and Immediately re-
turned to his home.
A week ago last Saturday accord
ing to his story. some of the older
pupils got into discussion concerning
the transporting power of moving
water in relation to river beds and to
settle the dispute he volunteered to
take the class on Monday morning to
the bank of the San Juan river and
show them the qualification
AT 10 a. m, accompanied by about
20 scholars, the teacher went to the
about a mile in search of a place for
the demonstration. Several of the
older boys had long handled spades.
a point was selected at a bend of the
river, near a high bluff of basaltic
rock, on the New Mexico side of the
stream Not half dozen spades full
of sand had been scOoped UP before a
gold nugget the size of a pea was
brought to light. This was followed by
the finding of many fakes of gold. All
thoughts OF geological investigation
was at once banished, and the news
that there was gold in the river was
carried to the settlement by the ex-
cited pupils. Among the members of
fornia miners. and they Immediately
took command of the operations in
which the entire colony at once en-
gagged.
Directly across the San Juan from
Bluff is a reservation of the Navajo
Indians; with them the MormonS are
on the best of terms. 1t was decided to
try both sides of the river, and
small Golfer dam was constructed on
the reservation side. On noon Monday,
and at the close of work on Tuesday
there was taken from the river bed
by the most primitive methods a. sum
of gold in flakes and nuggets equal to
s., 300 a meeting of the elders was
held at once, and it was decided to
despatch the school teacher to New
York with letters to influential friends
here. Mr.. Gordon left Bluff last We'd
nesday and reached Durango, 80 miles
distant, in time to catch the fast train
Thursday for Denver. He defines to
discuss the details Of his mission to
the east.
