SENATOR DIETRICH INDICTED
WORK OF FEDERAL GAND JURY
IN NEBRASKA.
The Senator and Postmaster Fisher OF
Hastings, Neb., Charged With Con-
spiracy and Bribery-Evidence Be-
fore Jury-Other Cases to Come Up
First of the Kind Against Senator.

Omaha, Nov. 18.-The federal grand
jury has returned true bills against
United States Senator Charles H.
Dietrich and Postmaster Jacob H. Fish
er of Hastings, Neb., charging them
with conspiracy and bribery in connec-
ton with the appointment of Fisher
to the position of postmaster. The In
dictments were brought into the dis
trict court. Judge Munger presiding,
and were placed on file. The court
merely accepted the report of Inc
grand jury, making no remarks on its
contents beyond making an order to
the clerk for filing of the bills.
The indictment against Senator Diet
rich charges that he accepted money
and property in consideration of mis-
recommending Fisher for appointment
as postmaster at Hastings. That
against Postmaster Fisher charges him
with making an agreement with oena-
tor Dietrich by which the former was
to pay in property and money $500
for securing Fisher the appointment.
Evidence was presented to the
grand jury to show that Fisher had
bought postoffice fixtures from the
Grand Army post at Hastings, Of the
value of $500, and later turned the
property over to Senator Dietrich, to
whose building it was removed, and to
whom was paid rental by the govern
ment. In addition to turning over this
property, it is charged that Fisher
paid to the senator $500 in cash.
The members of jury came from all
parts of the state, no two of them be-
ing resident of the same town. The
foreman, Frank E. White of Omaha, is
secretary of the grand lodge of the
Masonic order of Nebraska. The 9TH
er members are mostly prominent
business and professional men. Four
other cases, said to be of a similar
nature, are being investigated by the
jury and report on all or part of
them is expected very soon. All arc
cases In which postoffices and pest
masters are concerned.
This indictment is said to be tho
ture and caused intense excitement in
official circles in Nebraska when it be-
came public.
Postmaster Fisher was formerly
mayor of Hastings and has been
prominent in republican politics Of Ne
braska for several years. He said in
Omaha:
There is really nothing in the
charges, and my friends will support
me in my defense. If witnesses had
been permitted to have been cross-ex-
amined the result would have been
quite different and no indictment
would have followed. Men have push
ed this matter who were turned oswn
for reappointment and have trumped
up charges to get even"

HORSES IN THE UNITED STATES.
According to Secretary Wilson's Count
Thei Are 16,557,OOO of
Them.

The Statisltician sat in the gloomlest
corner of the Hoffman corridor yester-
day afternoon and plsled himself with
pencil and paper, says the New YORK
Telegraph
II have Just SEEM said he. 1.-THE
annual report Ut the Secretary nf
ArgIculture Mr.. Wilson tells US, III
mis- admirable thesis, which begins
with the educational requirements for
AGRICULTURAL research, that there are
16. 557. 900 horses in the United States,
with a total value of ISL, 031. 900. OOO.
That comes within couple OF hundred
millions Of equaling the entire national
debt
"Taklng the departmental figures as
exact, the average value OF every horse
In the countryis little more than
$50. The thirty cent ones must Do
mighty numerous to keep the average
down when horse like Hermis went
for $50, 900 at private sale. Waterooy
and McChesney must have lot OF
pretty poor brothers ana sisters In all
that sixteen millions and a half OF
horsefiseh.
..Pur all those horses in line, nose
and tail, and there'd be 1000 miles
OF them. The head or the processioh
would be IN NewaYork aud the other
would back around the globe. across
the Pacific, all through Asia and into
Eastern Europe.
THE funny part Of the whole bust
ness is that mules is worth more than
the average horse. Mr.. Wilson tells
Us that the mule in the United States
have Increased to 2 72S, 600. with
value of nearly $500, 600, 600. That
means about $7B for every mule, as
against $50 for the horse. The mule.
without pride of ancestry or hope OF
posterity, seems to more than bold MS
own with his better bred brother.
"As | figure 1t out, there were less
than s OU0 thoroughbreds that raced IN
the United States last year. That
brings the race horses to proportion
of abour $. l00ths of cent OF all the
horses IN the country. In other words,
there were 3, 800 times more horses III
the land than there were racers. Every
time a horse went to the post In u
running contest thore we're 800 times
more horses IN the Cnited States that
didn't.
And guess thatll be about all
for this afternoon. y
