Counsel for August w. Machen to-day
filed in the Criminal Court of the dis
trict a demurrer to the former indict-
ments of Machen. 1t alleges that every
count in the indictments is fatally
defective. in that it fails to show that
Machen was an officer of the govern
ment at the time the offenses alleged
were committed. Machen withdrew his
plea of not guilty.
The demurrer to the indictment Of
bribery against Diller B. and Samuel
A. Croft, in connection with Machen,
was filed. Like Machen, the Croft
brothers withdrew their plea of not
guilty. and say that every count of
the indictment is defective.
The demurrer contends that the in
dictment does not in a legal manner
charge the defendants with the COM
mission of an offense against the
United States, and that it does not
charge any act or promise which is a
crime or misdemeanor under any law
of the United States.

CAN'T AFFECT OTHER CASE.

Washington, Aug. 1.-Mr. Day, as
sistant to the Attorney General. was
asked what effect the decision of Judge
Lochren in the suit of the state of Min
nesota agains THE Northern Securities
Company would have on the case of
the United States against this COM
pany. He replied:
at can have no effect whatever. The
case of the United States against the
securities company was brought under
the Sherman antitrust law, charging
a violation of it's provisions. and 1t
was decided by four United States cir
cult Judges, in a unanimous opinion,
that the Northern Securities Company
was a conspiracy in restraint of in
terstate commerce. and, therefore, UNI
lawful.
This case was not brought under
the Sherman antitrust law or any
other federal statute. 1t is a suit of
the state of Minnesota for an alleged
violation of it's constitution and laws,
and the decision of District Judge Locn-
rem in such a case could in no event
affect the result reached by the four
circuit Judges in the former case"

Placerville, Cal, Aug. 1.-Reports of
an encounter between the law officers
and thirteen of the convicts who es-
capped from the Folsom prison are be-
ing received tonight, but owing to the
remoteness of the scene of the battle.
and to the fact that the night fell al
most Immediately following the re-
ceipt of the first news, details are COM
ing in SLOWLY. 1t is known, however,
that the sheriff's posse. assisted by a
force of the Placerville militia, came
upon some fUgitives near the Grand
Victory mine about dusk. and shots
were exchanged.
Dallas Bosquit, the son of Sheriff
Bosquit, is said to be among the slain,
and a message by telephone, says his
body was found along the roadside.
Militiaman Dill was shot through the
body and is not expected to recover.
The greatest anxiety prevailsg here
concerning the safety of the soldiers.
It is known that six of them went into
the brush after the convicts, and the
only trace of them was the wounded
man, Din, who was unable to give any
clue concerning his companions.
The convicts are believed to have
taken refuge in the Grand Victory
mine, and there is talk of setting fire
to it and driving out the criminals.
Additional forces are being hurried to
the mine.
Another account of the battle reach
ed Brainard F. Smith. chief clerk of
the Folsom prison. He was notified
that three of the attacking party were
killed, and that it was presumed two
of the convicts were badly wounded.

Pekin, Aug. IA journalist of
this city named Shen Chen
ives executed here yesterday Ac-
cording to the official report of the
execution. Chen was beheaded, but it
became known tonight that this re-
port was false and that the condemn
ed man was beaten to death in ac-
cordance with special instructions is
sued by the Dowager Empress, who
desired to make an example Of the
journalist with which to terrify other
reformers. The incident is declared
to be the most horrible that has oc-
CURED in China since the massacre of
1900.
No one except officials was permit
ted to see the prisoner after his ar
rest. The evidence at the trial was so
weak that Chen probably would have
been acquitted, had he not boldly pro-
claimed his principles throughout and
his willingness to die for them. He
frankly admitted the charge that he
had attempted to organize a rebellion
at Hankow, In 1900, and boosted that
he had always advocated the assassina-
ton of the Manchus, in order to rid
the country of the dynasty.
Despite the precautions taken by the
officials, the prisoner smuggled from
his cell farewell message in the form
of poem, in which he glorihed re-
form and exhorted his colleagues to
continue the work
Chen was 30 years of age and had
many friends among the foreign resi-
dents of the city, who descibe him as
an educated hiRh-minded gentleman
The affair has created intense feeling
in the foreign community, and a strong
sentiment against surrendering the
Shanghai reformers to Chinese juris-
diction.
