INDIANoLA, Miss, Aug. 29.--Dick

armed. As the deputies were ap-
preaching the place where the fugitive
was, a load of shot was fred by the
hunted Negro, who was in ambush,
and Paris fell dead. The Negro then

ARRESTED WITHOUT CAUSE.
But Mayor DOran Simply Hands Out
Il ReDrimand


Patrolman Thomas Brennan of the Rondo
street station was on the carpet yesterday to
answer the charges of F. Ascher, who com
planned to the mayor that the officer had ap-
him without cause. Ascher's story was that
on Monday night, or rather Tuesday about |
a. m. he was standing Park avenue,
near the corner of Viola street engaged in
conversation with another young man with
whom he had chanced to walk home The
two were standing in front of the home of
the latter, AScherS house being some four or
five doors beyond.
Ascher, who is a cornice maker by trade,
says that Officer Brennan happened along at
the time and ordered him and his friend tn
''move on" Both of them protested that thew
had right to stand where they were, but
finally Ascher's companion turned away
and and tn,, went into the house But the
and the policeman, and according to
Ascher, oficer Brennan used in
sulting and obscene language The upshot
OF it was that Ascher was arrested and lode-
ed in the Rondo street jail, where he passed
the remainder of the night. Tuesday morn
ing he was arraigned in the police court and
discharged: 1t appeared from the testimony
of one of the sergeants on duty at the Rondo
station that Ascher bore an excellent char
acter, whereas his companion of the night
before does not fare 50 well, so far as the
police go.
officer Brennan in his own defense declared
that ne had good reason to suspect both men,
not only because of recent crimes committed
In that neighborhood but because he had no.
ticed that one Of the windows of a store on
the corner near by had been tampered with,
the putty around the glass having been par
TALLY removed.
The testimony of Patrolman Enright, who
earlier the same night was talking with
AScher'S companion. was that Ascher happen-
ed to pass by at the time and that his meet
ing with the other was purely accidental
On the hearing before the mayor all the
facts were brought out. and in addition
letter from the proprietor of the store which
Officer Brennan declared bore evidence of an
attempt of thieves to effect an entrance, was
produced, denying that any Of the windows
had been tampered with.
The mayor disapproved of the conduct of
the officer, and reprimanded him for the use
OF abusive language. But that was the ex-
tent OF the punishment inflicted upon the
policeman.
Brennan was appointed on the force nearly
ten years ago.

Next Grand Jury's Inquiries May Go
Some Distance.


The panel of twenty-four grand jurors for
the term of court which begins Jan. has
been drawn and is now in the hands of the
sheriff. The names Of the good men and
true will not be made public until they have
been formally served by the sheriff, which is
now being done.
The January session of the grand jury
promises to be interesting one, as, ac-
cording to the rumors current, a number of
matters of moment to the public welfare
will be brought before the body. 1t was
stated yesterday by gentleman, who did not
care to have his name mentioned that the
detectives who have been working in Mime
apolis for the past three months had not
confined their attention solely to- the Mill
City, but had also submitted reports touching
municipal affairs in st. Paul These reports
would, the gentleman said be taken before
the coming session of the grand jury, and
that body would be the ones to judge as to
whether additional investigations were need
ed.
Asked as to what line the detectives had
been working on, the gentleman said he was
not at liberty to make any statements or go
into details at the present time but he in
timated that one of the subjects investigated
was in relation to the transfer Of disreputable
resorts from one section of the city to the
other. In addition to this, the operation Of
policy shops and gambling resorts which
have recently started up, have also been un-
der investigation, and deal of valuable
data gathered. Just how deep the grand jury
would go into these matters the G | 0 e in
