In the event Of objections being
raised to the grand jury returning
any indictments which have been
under consideration, the same condi'
ton of affairs would prevail. Suspect
ed ones, undergoing examination,
would necessarily be kept in custody
or under bond until the next regular
term of court.
The District Attorney hoped that no
such process would be rendered neces'
sary; defendants should be given a
speedy trial. At any rate they would
have all benefits possible under the
law.
As to whether the question uHder
Section COZ will be taken advantage
of, If there is any advantage possible
in holding up proceedings four or five
months. and whether, II the question
is pressed, the court will read the
statute one way or the other, Mr.

Washington, Nov. 9.-"Hon. George
A. Lear" did not take his seat in the
House to-day, as he had declared he
would. He was arrested while prowl-
ing around the White House who has
been picked up by the Washington
police during the past week.
Lear claimed to have been elected an
Independent representative from Chi
cago by one million majority with the
aid OF Dowie, and he notified the clerk
OF the House that he would be on hand
to-day to take his seat. The Capitol
police were looking for Lear when
they heard OF his arrest near the White
House.
Five of the other cranks were from
outside of Washington, and as they
they were harmless they were sent
back to their homes. None Of the
others were violent, though they were
all found around the White House
looking for the President. The num-
Der of cranks who visit the White
House is steadily increasing.

DAMAGE BY WATER.

The storm Sunday afternoon did a
lot of damage along River street. just
below Vineyard. 1t was along this
portion of the thoroughfare that the
water from the stream came down
with swiftest force with the result
that the Chinese shops OF the vicinity
were flooded. Much of the stun set
on the floors was rendered useless by
he water which flooded the ten or a
dozen stores and several hundred dol
lars was thus lost.

IN SEcLUSIoN.

In the summer and fall a prominent
broker doing business in New York
HES himself to a small town in Jersey
and revels In its imaginary bucolic
life. The other day he engaged very
respectful colored man to cut the grass
in front of his cottage.
That night, upon returning from the
city, he paused to watch the colored
brother gathering up his tools in lazy
fashion, and asked him where he came
from.

Treasurer Kcpoikai is furnishing as
much material for official speculation
as the coming Of the commissions. II
the Treasurer has said all he is cred
tied with from different sources, he
has certainly boxed the compass,
When events prove the facts it will
probably be found that the Treasurer
has kept mum except to officials and
the furore is the result Of speculation
on what he might do.

Made Murderer Dig Grave.

United States deputy marshals IN
Indian Territory have variety oi
functions to perform, and quite often
do duty as coroner and undertaken as
well in murder cases. Deputy X T.
Fleming of Wewoka, has had reveral
experiences of this kind lately, but
one occurred this week which had
a rather new feature, In that the muir
derer was compelled to assist IN the
burial arrangements, and dug the
grave in which his victim was placed
Mr.. Fleming was called to a place
about eighteen miles northwest OF
wewoka to arrest the murderer ana
found him backed up in fence cor
ner and guarded by four or five men,
who had been standing watch over
him for several hours. He inquired
about the murdered man, and was
shown his body, where it had been ly-
ing ever since the murder took place
None of the bystanders would give
any assistance in the disposal OF the
body, and the deputy had no author-
ity to compel them to do so. He did
have authority over his prisoner
however. and accordingly set him TO
work digging a grave, in which the
body was buried.

LARORERS ARE SCARCE
Western Roads Ask Chicago for Men for
Construction Work.

Chicago, May 6.-Representatives of
contractors on railways in the western part
of the country are calling upon Chicago
for, assistance in getting laborers to rush
thru the work planned for the present sea
son:&. There is said to be great. danger
thatfthe construction plans of several lines
may he interfered with seriously on ac-
count of inability to get workmen. In
duccments are being offered laborers to
go to the Southern Pacific lines west of
Ogden and calls from. the Northern Pa
cific extensions in the far northwest have
been, made. That the seekers after rail-
road laborers should come as far east as
Chicago is taken as proof Of the lack of
laborers in the west. AT least there is
a lack of enough to supply the pressing
needs of the builders of railroads. One
reason for the condition is said to be the
activity in the mining regions and the
increased demand for workmen on the
farms and in the cities of that section of
the country. ,&
In many sections Of the west. railroad
construction far in excess Of the usual
amount is now going forward, The lines
under construction are scattered from the
Mexican border to Manitoba and from the
Mississippi river to the Pacific coast.
The recent interpretation of the new
immigrant law to permit of skilled labor
ers being brought into the country under
