In the schoolbOy's scrawl, are the tokens

by bay pirates, who took anything they
could lay their hands oD. The ships were
the Kensington, Snaigow, Moreton, Pc.
gasus and Fairport. Their captains came
into town to-day and reported that during
the night the vessels had been looted of
much movable material. They sought the
services of the Constable and Town Mar
shal. who set out to discover the culprits.
Although diligent search has been
made no clew has been obtained. 1t is
believed that the pirates came from San

IN THE DRaGNET
OF A GRAND JURY
DR.. Hunter and Other
Kentucky Statesmen
Indicted.
Charged With Attempting to
Bribe Three Members of
the Legislature.
Said to Be a Conspiracy to Defeat
the Republican in the Sena-
torial Race.

FRANKFORT, KY, April H. The
dragnet OF the Grand Jury caught not
only DR.. Godfrey Hunter, Senatorial can
dldate. but ex-Congressman John H. Will
son, E. T. Franks, Captain Noei Gaines
and Thomas r. Tanner. The charge is
conspiracy to bribe. Warrants were at
once issued the men arrested and put un-
der bonds of $3.50 each. Judge Cantrill
said he would grant an immediate trial If
desired, otherwise he would assign the
cases Tor the September term. No deci-
sion has yet been reached by the defend
ants.
The indictment charges all the men
with conspiracy to bribe three members
OF the Legislature with $4,000 each to in
duce them to vote for Hunter. Hunter
said: "The whole thing is a conspiracy.
l will Continue to be a candidate"
The joint session of the Legislature to
ballot for United States Senator was q
very brief one. Rollcall was dispensed
with. One vote was cast for each of the
candidates as matter of form, and the
session then adjourned.
The indictment resulted from charges
made py Captain Noel Gaines and his
brother-in-law. Captain Thomas Tanner
Hunter. the Republican candidate for
United States Senator, needed three votes
to secure his election. Many ballots had
been taken, but still the three needed
votes could not be obtained. Gaines
stated that about this time a proposition
was made to him to secure the three votes
and he was offered $4,000 for each vote.
This statement by Gaines was corrob-
Grated by Tanner, who said that he had
been summoned to the room of ex-Con-
gressman John H. Wilson, who was act
ing as Hunter manager and shown 500,
600, which, he was told, would be paid for
four votes. H. swore tha. there had been
mum Der of conferences of similar char
acter on the subject.
On the other side, the men accused OF
offering the bribe emphatically denied
that any such offer had been made. Viii.
son made statement asserting that he
had been notified by Hon. e. T. Franks
that Gaines wished to see him, and that
Gaines had said that he could get three
members of the Legislature to vote for
Hunter for $4,000 apiece. According to
Wilson's story Franks suspected that it
was political trick intended to place
Hunter Ill some kind OF compromising
position, and it was decided advisable th at
be (Wiison) should.go to meet Gaines.
He did so, and Gaines told him that he
could deliver three votes for $l5, ,000 but
wanted $1,000 for himself. Wilson refused
to have anything to do with it. and then
Gaines threatened that he would get them
all IN trouble unless paid the $1,000.
This story told by Wilson was corrob-
Grated by both Hunter, who denied all
knowledge OF Gaines and Tanner, and by
Franks.
The charges caused intense excitement
and were generally regarded as an
attempt to defeat Panter. The charges
so far have had little effect, as lie has re-
tanned all his strength. Whether his sup
porters will continue faithful to him after
he has been indicted remains to be seen.
