FOLK AFTER CAPITALISTS.
May Be Indicted In Connection With
Bribery Of Missouri Solons.

Nay BE indicted In Connection With
Bribery Of Missouri soIons.
st. Louis. July 3.-Circuit Attorney
Attorney Folk has information which
may lead to the indictment of Eastern
capitalists for bribery in connection
with the transit bill which was passed
by the Missouri legislature in 1899.
The statute of limitations prevents the
prosecution Of those persons living in
Missouri who are alleged to have been
connected with the deal, but those liv-
ing in New York are not protected. 1t
is understood that such indictments
would have to be found by the Cole
county grand jury, as the deal was
made in Jefferson, Mo. Should the in
dictments be voted the whole Doodle
story would doubtless come out for the
first time. The legislative agents
were empowered. it is said, to use all
the money necessary to overcome the
objections of any member of the legis-
lature. Circuit Attorney Folk expects
to complete the chain of evidence in a
few days.
