INDICTMENTS ARE
 RETURNED BY JURY
Three Chicago Bandits Will
 Stand Trial for Crimes
MARK IS ALSO INDICTED
Charged That He Killed Detective Quinn, and Is Implicated in Five Murders-Separate Trials
 May .Be Necessary.

Chicago, November 2s-Indictments were voted today by the grand jury against Harvey Vandine. Peter Nieder- mier and Emil Roeski, the three bandits who were arrested yesterday at the close of man hunt in Indiana, 30 miles from Chicago An indictment was also voted against Gaston Marx, who murdered Detective Quinn and was implicated with the other three men In most of their long list of crimes, extending over a period of six months Against yandine indictments were voted charging him with complicity in five murders, against Niedermier in- dictments in connection with four murders and against Marx indictments for four murders.
 Roesli will stand trial for one murder.
 The following are the crimes for which indictments were voted by the jurors:
 Vandine, Roeski and Marx, for the mur- der of Otto Bauder on July 9.
 Niedermier, Vandine and Marx, for the murder of Frank w. Stewart during the car barn robbery on August 30.
 Vandine. Niedermier and Marx, for the murder of John B. Johnson at the car DdTuS dI lue llHle DleWdIl WdS Sldlils
 Marx for the murder of Detective John Quinn on November 21.
 Vandine and Niedermler, for the murder of Adolph Johnson, August 1, at North Seventy eighth and West North avenues, in the saloon of B. c. Lagrosse; also the murder of Lagrosse at the same time
 No cognizance can be taken in Illinois of the murder of Brakeman T. J. Sevea in Indiana on Friday or of of the shooting of Detectives Driscoll and Zimmer in In diana during the fight that preceded the capture of Vandlne, Roeski and Nieder- mier.
 It is the intention of State Attorney Deneen to bring the men to trial as quick ly as possible.
 It may be necessary to have two trials as although the four men usually worked together when the greater crimes were committed, one of the number was often absent. Roesld was not at the robbery of the car barns, and had no part In the murders committed at that time. Marx was alone when he killed Detective Quinn and was in jail yesterday when the crimes were committed in Indiana! Roesk and Marx, therefore, will probably have sep arate trials, unless a general plea of guil- ty Is made by all four men.

 The Mems meeting Sunday afternoon continues to be the leading feature of each week. Every meeting so far has shown good results. The meeting at 3:3O this afternoon will be helpful to any man. MT. J. b. Blair will make practical talk on Temptations and his talk will be followed by others. At the close of the hours service an aftermeeting will be held and following 1t a fellowship lunch will be served. This lunch is an informal affair at which the best of good fellowship prevens.

A number of men have assured the secretaries that thes occasions have been helpful to them.
 So far the religious work of the associa- ton has predominated all other features and 1t is the expressed hope that it may so continue. J. S. B.

Why He Was Not Promoted.
From Success.

From success.
 H. watched the clock.
 He was always grumbling. He was always behindhand
 He had no iron in his blood He was willing but unfitted. He didn't believe in himself. Nte asked too many questions. He was stung by a bad book His stock excuse was 'I forgot" He wasn't ready for the next step. He did not put his heart in his work. He learned nothing from his blunders. He felt that he was above his position. He chose his friends among his in- feriors.
 Ha was content to be a second-rate man.
 He ruined his ability by half doing things. He never dared to act on his own judgment. e He did not think It worth while to learn how.
 He tried to make bluff" take the place of ability.
 He thought he must take amusement every evening.
 Familiarity with slipshod methods par alyzed his ideal. He thought 1t was clever to use coarse and profane language.

WILL NOT
 AGAIN OFFER CUP
Withdrawal of Emperor William
 Practically PostpOnes Race
WILL HELP IN 1905 CONTEST
The Yachtsman Says It Is Now Impos. sible to Start In Again and Get Good Transatlantic
 Race.

London, November 2S.-Sir Thomas Lip- ton today received a telegram from Lord Lonsdale notifying him that as illness had prevented Emperor William from meeting his yachting representatives, it would now be too late to build boats in Europe and make the suggested 1904 race a success, so the emperor decided to post pone offering his cup for a transatlantic race until 1905. Lord Lonsdale added that the emperor, therefore would not take advantage of Sir Thomas Liptons with drawal Sir Thomas replied, agreeing with Lord Lonsdale that It was now too late to make the proposed race a success and pointing out that therefore, 1t was quite useless for him to renew his offer, the withdrawal of which had already been accepted.
 Sir Thomas hopes to enter boat in the race for the emperor's cup in 1905.
 Sir Thomas Lipton, in an interview to- day, said:
 'So far as Emperor William is con cerned, l can only say that your Berlin dispatch announcing the postponement of the cup race, is correct l regret the Illness of such a good sportsman as the German emperor, and heartily look for ward to entering boat In his contest in 1905."
 Asked if he would now renew his of fer to the Atlantic Yacht club, Sir Thom- as said:>
 After this unfortunate hitch, and at so late a day, it would be. quite impossi- ble to start in again and get up really good race for 1904 I shall do everything in my power to make the race for his majesty's cup in 1905 a success, but the reasons which prompt Emperor William to postpone his offer of the cup, also make 1t quite impossible for me to re- new my offers as regards 1904. I only with drew the offer of my own cup in courtesy to the emperor and in the hope of bring ing together every element interested in a transatlantic contest"

BRONX SEEMED INDIFFERENT.
So Z. y. Engineers May Report Against
Harlem River improvements.

The United States Government engineers
who came here on July 10 TO consider the
improvements asked for along the Harlem
River and Bronx Kills, by the North Side
Beard % Trade and citizens of The Bronx,
have written TO Congressman Joseph A.
Goulden of tho Eighteenth district that
they have been unable 10 find anybody
in The Bronx who takes enough interest in
the case to reply to their letters asking for
information, suggestions and opinions.
In May last the North Side Board of Trade,
Taxpayers Alliance and business men Of
The Bronx spent $500 in entertaining the
Rivers and Harbors Committee, and ex-
planned to them what improvements were
needed. Capt. Charles Fl. McKinstry Of
the United States Board Of Engineers,
accompanied by Lieut.. J. r. Slattery of the
Engineers Corps and several assistants
came here and we're taken over the ground
by Dock Commissioner Hawkes..
Lieut. .Slattery, in his letter to Congressman
Goulden, says that not a single repre-
sentative from The Bronx met the party
when it arrived and that it was difficult to
get any tangible information about what
the people wished to be done. The only
answer they received. he said, was one from
Railroad, in which improvements were
suggested at Little He'll Gate. Lieut..
Slattery said that Capt McKinstry went
away with different idea Of the improve
ments needed tina n he had when he came.
Congressman Goulden said Yesterday
that mos of the members of The Bronx
delegation who are interested III he project
are away for the summer, and he supposes
the engineers happened to write to persons
WHO are not interested in improvements.
The agitation will be continued just the
same, he saya.
