Washington, June 23.-The grand
jury, which has been investigating
postal affairs, Monday returned an
indictment against August w. Machen,
Diller B. Croft, Samuel A. Croft, George
E. Lorenz and Martha j. Lorenz, the
two latter being residents of Toledo,
.. As previously stated, the specific

government. The Indictment is based
on section $40 of the Revised Stat
utes, which provides a penalty of $10,-
900 or two years Imprisonment, or
both. in the discretion of the court
1t was said by Assistant District
Attorney Taggart that the indict-
ment was found against Mr.. and Mrs.
Lorenz by reason of the fact that the
evidence adduced before the grand
jury showed them to be the go-be
tweens for the Groffs and Machen.
Washington, June 25.-The presi-
dent has sent the following letter to
the attorney general:
'White House, Washington, June
"a, 1903.-Sir;, AS you know, the
charges in connection with the post
office department are now being in
vestigated by Fourth Assistant Post
master General Bristow, who has had
placed at his disposal by the post
master general every resource of the
department! including the services of
Mr.. Robb, whom you detailed from
the department of justice to the post
office department. Immediately after
the removal of Mr.. Tyner. AS re-
suit of this investigation, a number
of indictments have already been
held, and it is probable that other
indictments will hereafter be asked
for. There can be no greater Of
Tense against the government than
a breach of trust. on the part of a
public official or the dishonest man
agement of his office, and, of course,
every effort must be exerted to bring
such offenders to punishment by the
utmost rigor of the law. The district
attorney of the District of Columbia
has faithfully and zealously seconded
the efforts of the post Office depart
ment in this matter, but the amount
of work in the office is such as to
make it difficult, without neglecting
other important public duties, to de-
vote all the time necessary to the
prosecution of these eases. I sug-
gest, therefore, that if you cannot
detail some of your present staff, you
appoint special assistants in these
post Office cases, not only to take
up the cases in which indictments
have been found, or hereafter may
be found. but to examine into all
charges that have been made against
officials in the postal service, with
view to the removal and prosecution
of all guilty men in the service and
the prosecution of guilty men,
whether in the service or not, where
the cases are not barred by the stat
utes of limitations Sincerely yours,
"THEODORE ROOSEVELT.
''Hon. P. C. Knox, Attorney General"
Carrying out the presidents sug-
gestion, Attorney General Knox has
appointed Charles G. Ronaparte, of
Baltimore, special attorney to as
sist in these prosecutions. Mr. Holmes
Conrad, former solicitor general, was
rendered a like appointment.

viii claim Self Defense

Topeka, Kan, June 24.-The line of
defense that will be made in behalf of

Dewey or Wilson or Mcbride, the
three who are under arrest, fired the
shots that were fatal. In fact, it is
