six months OF the Mckinley administra-
zion were the most disastrous in the his
tory of the country. He charged Senator
Hanna with hostility TO the labor inter-

the twin agents OF fraud and coercion.

SHERIFF MARTIN INDICTED.
Grand Jury Find True Bills for Mur-
der and WOunding.

WILKESBARRE PA, October 2S.-
The grand jury to-day returned a true
bill against Sheriff Martin and HIS depu-
ties for the Lattimer shooting. The true
bills included nineteen for murder-one
for each man killed and one for the
victims considered collectively. Thirty
six true bills were found in the same way
for feonious wounding against the same
defendants. The fact that true bills have
been found occasions no surprise, as this
action was expected. If the jury had
ignored the bills. the defendants would
have been at once rearrested.
The likelihood is that Sheriff Martin
and his deputies will elect TO be tried
together. The re-entry OF Garman g. Nc
Gahren, who withdrew from the case at
the time of the preliminary hearing, In
dicates that the prosecution will be push
ed with vigor.

rzE UNION PACIFIC SALE.
Gable Offers from Coates Syndicate
Meeting Objections Raised.


LONDON, October 29.-Long cable mes
sages have been sent to United States
Attorney General McKenna in the mat
ter Of the Union Pacific sale, on behalf
OF the Coates syndicate, making offers
that meet the objections raised.
The syndicate claims that its bid would
produce 900 more to the govern
fpent than any other bid, and urges that
the sale be adjourned until December
18th, to enable Congress TO determine
MS 10 the advsability Of the acceptance
OF bonds in part payment.
Coates Son e. Co. contend that by the
sale OF the Union Pacific separately, the
limited States Government will be a loser.
while they Coates, Son & Coz proposed
10 pay the government in full for both
roads.
The final cable message sent yesterday
asserts that the latest Schih bid Is very
little better than the previous bids, ana
that II Mr.. Schiff does secure only the
Union Pacific, he will have the Kansas
division at his mercy. and be able to
ge. it at his own price The dispatch
concludes as follows:
'If the government secures a postpone
nent of both sales TO December 18th,
The Coates syndicate will furnish guar
lntees TO pay In full for the government
slalms on both roads. Congress can
hen determine whether both roads
lhould not be sold concurrently. BY our
bids we have already earned SS.0o0,OO for
Inc government. and are. therefore, en-
ntled 70 a fair opportunity. 10 more than
