IN SERIOUS TROUBLE
Federal Grand Jury Indicts Sec.
retary of MIssouri's Governor.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, Oct 9-The fed
eral grand jury late today returned in
dictments against w. A. Morrow, as
sistant private secretary to Gov. A. M.
Dockery, and Thomas E. Barrett, for
merly marshal Of the st. Louis court Of
appeals. The indictments were re-
ported to Judge Elmer B. Adams, of
the United States district court, and
charge the defendants with aiding,
abetting and conspiring to fraudulent
ly naturalize aliens.
1t is charged that Morrow and Bar
rett, in October, 1900, procured by
fraud naturalization papers for ten
alien residents of ST. Louis county and
had them placed in the hands of for
eigners.
Morrow has been in the governors
Office for ten years, having been orig
inally appointed by Gov. Stone, and re-
tanned by Cows. Stephens and Dockery.
United States Marshal Morsey left
for Jefferson City tonight to bring
Morrow into court to give bond.
Barrett will be tried within the next
few weeks on indictments previously
found against him in connection with
fraudulent naturalization of foreigners
in the court of appeals. He is charged

more or less injured.
The loss in the city is impossible to
estimate, but it will run close to
$1,000,000. Much will depend on the
condition of the streets in the flooded
section.
Soundings made by the street depart
ment indicate they are badly torn and
washed out. The state of foundations
of buildings in the flooded section is
also unknown and will remain so until
the water subsidies.
An officer of the Passaic Steel works
tonight said that the loss was already
$4,000 and might be 100000 if the
blasts were not going by morning,
which seems impossible now.
New York Is Flooded.
NEW YORK, Oct 9.-Torrential
rain, commencing early yesterday
morning and continuing with scarcely
any intermission until late this after
noon, during which time the unprece-
dented precipitation of 1904 inches was
recorded at the local weather bureau,
laid New York city and all the sur
rounding country under a flood today,
causing damage that will amount to
many hundred thousands of dollars.
Tonight the rain has ceased, but a
coast storm is reported to be approach
ders it unsafe for vessels of any class
to leave port.
Along all the river front and in many
sections of Brooklyn cellars were flood
ed and an enormous amount of damage
done. A great portion Of the subway
was badly flooded.
Suburban steam and trolley lines,
with hardly an exception, were Grip
pied by floods and washouts, and in
the early morning rush hours thou
sands of suburban residents were un-
able to reach their offices in this city.
Those who were fortunate enough to
cross the ferries found further progress
blocked by the submerged condition of
the water front street, across which
they were ferried4 in trucks and wag-
onS.
Except for the running of the ferry
boats, the Erie railroad was practically
tied up. No trains were run on the
main line west of Passaic. The Della
ware, Lackawanna & Western was also
badly crippled. On the Pennsylvania
it was stated that regular schedules
were maintained.

DASHES TO DEATH
Two Horses Rush MadIy Down
SeIby HilI-.One Is Killed.

Two horses attached to a wagon be-
longing to the st. Paul Messenger and
Express company became frightened on
Selby avenue last night and, after rum
ming five blocks, dashed together head
long down the steep descent of Selby
hill.
On reaching the verge of the hill, and
seeing the almost vertical incline be-
fore them, the horses attempted to
stop, but were carried on by the i'm
petus they had acquired.
A more sensational runaway could
not be imagined than that which fol-
lowed.
Both horses fairly flew down the de-
cline. At the curve near the bottom,
unable to guide their course, they COL
lided with an iron pole of the street
railway company, and one horses
brains were dashed out.
The two mares, a beautiful black
team, were sisters, Lizzie and Queen,
and had been together all their lives.
When Queen, who escaped without in
jury, saw her sister Lizzie lying life
less, with her blood spattered about,
she whinnied most pitifully, and, bend
ing over the PROSTATE form of the
dead animal, sought apparently to
learn the cause of her stiffness.
Queen was unhitched when the driv-
er arrived, but she could not be moved
from the spot until her eyes We're hood
ed. When taken to the barn, where
she had occupied the stall adjoining
that of her sister, Queen, acted like a
human bereaved of a loved one.
The team had been hitched on Selby
avenue, while Percy Regan, who was
driving them, had gone into a house to
deliver a parcel. One of the animals
got its bride loose and started to run.
The two continued in a mad gallon till
they precipitated themselves down the
hill.

WERE OLD ENEMIES
TiIIman and Gonzales Began
Quarrel in 1890.

LEXINGTON, S. c., Oct. 9-James
H.. Tillman was on the stand today
over four hours, witness in his own
behalf. For one hour he was sub
jected to the fire of cross examination
by council for the state. But one other
witness was placed on the stand by the
defense, after which the defense rested.
Witnesses in rebuttal placed on the
stand by the state were heard during
the closing hours. Splendid progress
was made today toward the conclusion
of the trial, which already has con-
sumed nearly two weeks.
In answer to questions the defendant
said the differences between Gonzales
and himself began in 1890. He wrote
a letter to Gonzales in 1892, thanking
him for a kindness, and their differ
ences were at an end at that time He
identified the letter, which was offered
in evidence by the state and read.
On further cross examination Mr..
Tillman said he had no i'll feeling to-
ward Gonzales until the attacks were
made on him the time he was in the
army.
''You spoke of him severely on every
stump in the state?" queried Mr.. Bell
niger.
"Pretty near every one," was the
reply.
Having stated that he did not care
to get into any trouble while lieuten-
ant governor, Mr.. Bellinger asked:

GUARDS SHOOT DOWN
ESCAPING CONY|CTS
Prisoners in Utah Penitentiary
Make Daring Attempt
to Escape.

SALT LAKE, Utah, Oct. 9.-As a
result of a well organized and partial
ly successful attempt at wholesale de-
livery of prisoners at the state prison
tonight, one prisoner was killed, one
guard was shot and wounded and an
other man was beaten almost into in
sensibility, three prisoners were wound
ed and three others, under death SEN
tence, escaped.
The Dead
FRANK DAYTON, serving twelve
year term for attempted highway rob-
The wounded
Guard Wilkins, shot in leg.
Guard Jacobs, badly beaten by con-
victs.
Convict Ed Mullen, serving three-year
term for burglary, shot in the leg.
Convict Abe Majors, serving life term
for murder of Capt. Brown, of Ogden,
Frank Waddell. serving seven-year term
for burglary.
Escaped
Fred Haworth. sentenced to death for
the murder of Night Watchman Kendall,
in Dayton, Utah. and A. Lynch sentenced
to death for murder of Col. Prowse in a
gambling house in this city, three years
ago.
None of the wounded, it is haid, is
seriously hurt.
About dozen of prison guards, with
several bloodhounds, were promptly
detailed on the trail of the two es-
capped convicts, but owing to darkness
and the wild nature of the country in
the immediate vicinity of the prison,
no results are looked for tonight.
The outbreak occurred as the pris-
oners were being placed in their cells
for the night by Guards Wilkins and
Jacobs. Two of the prisoners over
powered Wilkins and Jacobs, the former
being shot and slightly wounded, and
the latter frightfully beaten. The con-
victs took their prison keys from the
guards and released five other prison
ers who had already been locked up.
The seven prisoners then compelled
Guard wilkins, Notwithstanding his in
juries, to march at their head, and with
the assistance of ladders found near
the workshop they proceeded to scale
the wall. Wilkins was made to ascend
first.
AS the first convict reached the top
Guard Taylor, who was on the south
wall, opened fire. This was the signal
for a general alarm, and several
guards who were in the office quickly
seized their guns and hastened to the
scene.
Guard briggs reached the wall just

PASSAIC FLOODS
PATERSON AGAIN
New Jersey Town Is Cut Off From Outside World by
Water for Hours---Bridge Swept Away Carries Girl
to Her Death---Loss in the City Will Run Close
to Million Dollars.

PATERSON, n. J., Oct. 9.-Cut off
afternoon, Paterson saw the Passaic
river rise until it lacked just nine
inches of the height attained by the
great flood of February last.
The isolation of the city was prac-
ticaily complete, all telephone and tel
egraphic communication being entire
ly suspended for four hours. Not a
train has arrived here since morning
over any road except the Lackawanna,
which managed to get a local through
tonight. The Erie is out of communi-
cation entirely and trains are stalled
on both sides of the city. There is not
a trolley wheel turning in most parts
of the city On a few lines a car or
two runs back and forth between flood
ed points.
Of the thousands of commuters who
left here this morning, only few have
succeeded in getting back this evening.
One death has resulted from the flood.
Mary Hadley, fourteen years old, was
swept to death when the bridge over
Olden creek was carried away.
Probably the greatest damage will
result at the Passaic steel works. The
water poured into the fire rooms and
all the fires were put out. Every fur
mace in the plant was running all the
time and filled with molten metal. The
putting out of the fires is causing the
metal to solidify and unless the fires
are going by morning the steel will be
hard and there will be nothing for it
but to tear down the furnaces and re-
build.
Water poured into the Rogers loco
motive works, compelling them to shut
down.
In the city the water stood ten feet
deep on the lower streets near the
river which for a time early this aft
ernoon rose at the rate of one foot
an hour. When the rain ceased the
flood began to subside.
All the factories along the river shut
down this morning. 1t is feared that
the walls of many have been danger
ously undermined by the current. The
abutments of the West Twenty fifth
street bridge were undermined, and the
whole structure collapsed.
At Littles Falls, above the city many
bridges were swept away. A train on
the Newark branch of the Erie road
was wrecked today by a washout near
Nutley. Two of the cars crashed

eral occasions, and one evening, just
after supper, disappeared. A search
for the missing man was prosecuted
through the night and all of the fol-
lowing day without success. Not a
trace of Mckee could be found, even
by posse which was organized for
the purpose. The theory was that he
had been drowned and his body swept
down the river, or that he had been
attacked and devoured by wild ami
mails.
The identity of the skeleton found
pinioned under a birch tree was not
suspected until today, when several OF
the men who had been with Mckee,
Frank w. Eaton among the number,
called at the morgue, Fragments of
the clothing were shown to them, and
they were positive in Identifying them.
Measurements of the skull tailed with
the size of the hat he wore, the same
tooth was missing and other marks
made them certain that the body was
that of Mckee, who came here from
Ohio to buy horses ten years ago.

SKELETON OF A man TEN
YEARS MISSING IS FOUND
Remains of an Ohio oseman Discovered Minnesota Woods
and Positively Identified.

Special to The Globe.
DULUTH, Mimi. Oct. 9.-After be-
ing hidden for decade in the heart of
Minnesota's forest, far out of the path
way Of chance travellers, the bones of
George Mckee, prominent horseman
Of Belle Fountaine, Ohio, have at last
been revealed, and by their discovery
the closing chapter of a mysterious
disappearance has been written. The
skeleton found several days ago was
identified through the bits of cloth
ing picked up in the vicinity by ex-
Mayor Sutphin, of Duluth, and H. c.
Kendall, both of whom were well ac-
quainted with Mckee.
Mckee was a member of hunting
party which encamped near the Clo-
quet dam in 1893. During the trip he

Assemblyman Van Slylxe, a member
of the city hall and court house COM
mission, says recent excavations be-
meath the basement OF the building
have brought to light things that tend
to make occupants nervous, and he
wants an investigation.
City Engineer Ordered to Investigate.
He aired his suspicious before the
commission yesterday, and at his sug-
gestion City Engineer Rundlett was in
structed to investigate and report at
an early a date as possible. Mr.. Van
Sykes suspicious were received with
not little interest by the other mem
bers of the commission.
According to Mr.. Van Slyke, the
basement of the building, which is con-
siderably below the surrounding terri
tory, is a constant receptacle for all the
moisture caught in the light wells that
surround the building. This water has
been for years seeping through the
porous mass of sandstone on which the
big building rests, disintegrating the
stone and consequently affecting the
foundation. There is, no artificial
drainage. The water must find some
natural outlet. II
Sandstone Bedrock Is Saturated.
Mr.. Van Slyke says his attention
was DIOuSHJ 10 tie pOSSlUullIy Oh GAM
age to the building by the statement
of contractor who was employed to
make an excavation under the base
ment floor. He said that the stone was
saturated by water that was pouring
in, and that much of the stone had
rotted in consequence. To substanti- :
ate his story of damage by water the
contractor brought to view a section of
pipe removed that was practically de-
stroyed by reason of corrosion.
Another effect of the water is shown
in the uneven surface on the tile floor
in the basement. The floor has been
pushed upward in a number of places,
and this, it is claimed, is due to frost.
The floor rests directly upon this satu-
rated sandstone. A bad looking crack
has appeared on the Wabasha street
side of the building, just where the
tower stands, and II is claimed that
this is due to disturbance now going
l on underground.
