ASPIRANT INDICTED.
PARTISAN FEELING HIGH.
True Bllls Returned by the Grand Jury
Against Three Republican Leaders

to Corrupt LegisIators-TwO
Democrats Also Indicted
by the Jury.

FRANKFORT, KY. April 10. - This
morning the Franklin county grand
jury returned a true bill against DIR.
w. Godfrey Hunter, Republican nom
inee for the United States Senate; ex-
congressman John Henry Wilson of
the Eleventh district; Z. L. Franks of
the Second district; Captain Noel
Gaines and his brother-in-law
Thomas Tanner. of Frankfort, charg-
Ing them all with conspiracy to bribe.
All are Republicans with the excep-
tion of Gaines and Tanner
The news at once became public and
created the greatest Indignation
among the Republicans, all of whom
denounced 1t as q conspiracy among
Frankfort Democrats to defeat and
humiliate Hunter. They claimed that
the indictments against Gaines and
Tanner, the Democrats, were returned
simply as savers" to prevent the pub
lie generally from gaining the impress
sion that the grand jury had been
made an engine of political persecu-
tion, and that they would be dismissed
at the first hearing on account of in
sufficient evidence.
Chairman Jones of the Republican
caucus said that it was ''diabolical
and hellish conspiracy" and that the
Republicans would disprove and re-
sent 1t In proper spirit. State Senator
Deboe was of the same opinion and
not one of the Repu blican leaders hes
itated to condemn the action of the
grand jury as partisan and preiudiced.
DR.. Hunter has at last rebelled
against Hanna and his agent here.
Samuel Taylor of Ohio, and Yesterday
afternoon sent request to Taylor that
he leave Frankfort at once and not re-
turn to meddle in the Senatorial mud
ole. This was not done, however. un-
I'll 1t became known that the admins
tration had withdrawn its support
from Hunter, and that it was the de-
sire OF Mr.. Hanna that Hunter should
retire in favor of some candidate that
could unite the party. Taylor COM
municated with Mr.. Hanna at once
and was told to use his own discretion.
He will remain, at least for a time.

WASHINGTON, April l7-The Repub-
lican subcommittee of the Senate com
mittee on finance held an all day ses-
sion at the capitol yesterday to afford
an opportunity to other Senators to
make suggestions on the tariff bill.
Among the Senator's who called and
had conference with the committee
were Messrs. Quay, Sewall, Elkins,
Wellington, Perkins, Shoup, Pritch-
ard, Baker and Harris of Kansas.
Platt of New York
Senators Baker and Harris asked for
a duty Of 81 per ton on gypsum and
for decrease CT the duty imposed on
Mexican cattle. They represented
that there were immense beds of
gypsum in the West, sufficient to sup
ply the wants of the entire country.
With reference to cattle importations.
they represented that the cattle were
needed to consume the grass crop of
the West, and that it was more eco
nomical to move the cattle than the
grass.
During the day number of the Re-
publican senators from the intermoun-
tain states met 20 agree upon a plan

finite conclusion except to stand
together in their demands on wool,

Franklin and other great historic
characters Mr.. Miller revereneed them
by printing anecdotes of them. com.

Over Fourth of the Spanish Army I'm
Cuba VIII BE Sent Back
WASHINGTON, April 17.-Accoring to
information received here, when the
rainy season shall set In in Cuba, TO-
600 Spanish troops will be sent back
to Spain. and soon afterward sc, 1000
more will be recalled.
The Spanish insist positively that it
means only that little or nothing of
the insurrection remains; that Gomez
has only about fifty or hundred fol-
lowerers, and to watch these under
the conditions in which the campaign
has been necessarily conducted few
thousand men are quite as effective as
the 100000 men which have been main
tanned in Cuba. The Cuban contin-
gent, on the other hand, insist that
the Spanish financial resources are ex-
hausted and that the troops are to be
withdrawn because of lack of monev
to keep them in service.
