Jury ACCUSES
THE POLICEMEN
Indictments Are Returned
in st. Louis Because of
Disturbances at the Polls
OFFICERS ARE SCORED
Governor Is Asked to De-
mand and Accept Resig-
nations of Commissioners

ST. LOUIS, March 31.-The. Grand
Jury called some time ago to investi-
gate the alleged assaults perpetrated
upon voters during the Democratic pri-
paries on March IL made report to-
day, returning indictments against sew
enteen policemen and John LAWN, a
central committeeman, charging them
with failing to queil the disturbances.
The report also severely criticizes Gov
ernor. .Dockery for allowing the ST.
Louis police department. TO be used as
a political machine
The report is couched in temperate
language: The members of the Grand
Jury assert In their report that what
they say is not actuated by partisan
ship, as they call attention to the fact
that eleven of their number are Demo-
Gratis and one is a Republican. 'Ehe
State administration is Democratic.
The Grand Jury report then says that
in partial investigation of the election
outrages in. the Democratic primaries
It found that some of the most promi-
nent men in St. Louis were slugged
and beaten by indians" in the pres
ence of the police; who did nothing to
protect them. The report says that the
police, in some precincts at least, were
in connivance with the ruffians.
The Grand Jury appeals to Governor
.Doekery to take the police out of poll
tics. and in effect recommends that the
Governor accept. the designations of the
present Police Commissioners by sug-
costing that a bipartisan board be
appointed. The. report says that it
favors State control of the police de-
partment. .

the defense demanded that each wit
ness for the Government be called to
the stand for the purpose of cross-ex-
animation by the defense. .
Gross examination on what?" cried
Heney.
'On the averments, the defective
averments of the Indictment Schles-
niger replied.
They have given no testimony" said
Heney, and therefore cannot be cross
examined But the Government has
no objection to your calling them and
examining them as your witnesses.
Call them and get the whole story from
them. You don't dare"
We'll accept Mr.. Heney's gracious
permission" McEnerney said, with a
dry curl of his lips. Let John H.
Fimple be called"
Fimple, who has come all the way
from Washington, D. c., for this hear
ing, took the stand and told the court
that he was the Assistant Commits
sioner of the General Land Office and
had previously held divers other posi-
tons of trust in that bureau as well
as in the Interior Department. But
as soon as McEnerney asked about the
regulations governing land entries and
selections of lieu lands the attorneys
found themselves brought to a stand
still for want of the records and other
papers, a wagon load of which were
safely locked up at a hotel. AS Heney
placed all these at the disposal of the
defense, an early adjournment was talk
en- to permit McEnerney ct al. to dig
deep into the documents. The hearing
will go on at 1890 o'clock this morn
ing, when the records at the bottom
of the indictment will be gone over with
the object of getting proof that the
crime of the defendants, if they COM
mitted any, was done in California.

If such persons would lay their

Round two for Uncle Sam.

cock denied the motion. of Defendants

argued last week and was then denied.
but was, later renewed on additional
grounds. The defendants yesterday,
after entering the customary yolumin-
i:ous exceptions to the Commissioners
ruling. began: the introduction. of evil
dence. announcing their purpose to call
all the Governments witnesses : on
whose testimony the Indictment was
found by the Grand Jury in the SUI
/ preme Court of the District of Column
\ bia- How fully these witnesses viii be
interrogated by the defense is uncer-
tafn-probably not more so than will be
Z necessary to furnish the astute law
.yers with grounds for another attack
7 upon the Indictment and a new motion
to release the defendants. There is
every prospect that the fight will con-
tinue for many weeks: Hyde and Di-
inond are not going to Washington for
trial until they exhaust every resource
of legal strategy.
The principal line of attack on the
Government position thus far devel-
oped by the defendants attorneys has
been. against. the. jurisdiction of the
court in which the indictment was re-
/ .
made and pressed with great force that
the unlawful acts charged in that docu-
nuent We're committed in the States of
Washington. and Oregon, If. committed
at ali, and therefore that the indiet-
ment should have been found in a Fed
eral court IN one OF these States. This
argument has been discredited for the
moment by Commissioner Heacock's
decision. but Il is likely to reappear
shortly. The attorneys for the defense
are too far-sighted TO let the Govern
rnent's witnesses tell all they know. for
having made them their own witnesses
the defendants would be bound by their
testimony, hence It is probable that
they will be questioned Just enough TO
enable McISnerney. Wheeler, Schles-
niger and Knight to extract the facts
they want: These facts are expected to
show that the zs. alleged =: Hyde
Benson conspiracy 3: was @ formed,
il at all, not: in Washington, d. C.,
as charged I'm tho Indictment, hut in

other point on the Pacific Coast. Armed
with such evidence the legal gladiators
will again ask the Commissioners to
dismiss the complaint ON the ground
that the District OF Z Columbia lacks
3urisdsction over the. alleged crime.
LONG FIGHT AHEAD.
1t is a pretty fight, with the COM
batants well matched. Heney and Pugh
have won thus far, but the quartet of
keen San Francisco lawyers against
them have a barrel full of motions and
objections to spring on the Commits
sioner before he can reach the point of
holding the defendants for trial. IL he
should finally so decide. Even then
they will by no means be at the end Of
their rope, for there are vast possibili-

the work, forgot all about the possible
discomfort of the girl. When he finally
did think of her it was with a start OF

watch that the patient model had held
that trying pose for more than an hour.

That Dodd's Kidney Pills are doing a
great work in curing the more terrible
forms of Kidney Disease, such as
Bright's Disease, Dropsy and Diabetes,
everybody knows. But it must also be
noted that they are doing a still greater
work in wiping out thousands of cases
of the earlier stages of Kidney Disease.
Take, for instance, Mrs. Peter Bar

II have been subject to pains in my
back and knees for about three years,
but since | have been taking Dodd's

cured"
Others here tell similar stories. In
fact, in this part Of Missouri there are

Their Reunion Rcviyes Memories OF Their
Thrilling Career.


Apropos Of the late reunion in Alex
andria, Va, of the survivors of Mosby's
partisan rangers. a letter TO the Phila-
lelphia Press from that city says:
When Mosby organized his rangers"
as they were called, numbers of young
men, from the rich planters son to the
struggling store clerk, living in the
counties of I.oudoun. Fauquier. Gull
pepper. Prince William and Fairfax
locked TO his standard. This youthful
and impetuous band Of troopers, who
had, metaphorically speaking, grown
up ia the saddle were thoroughly famil-
lar with that romantic belt OF country
in whose streams they had fished. and
over the hills and through the valleys of
which they had hunted the fox. and
with a good horse under them. and q
brace of pistols in their belt, they be-
came perfect darc-deyi,s under Mosby's
intrepid leadership. and to execute his
plans would run the risk Of being cap
tured or shot with an abandon that was
rs gay as il was reckless.
Alosby aimed to do on land what Adj
miral Semmes did ON the high seas.
though ON a much smaller sale. His

their progress by tearing up the rail-
roads and other schemes of strategy. to-

ed, sometimes surprising whole regi-
ment with a mere handful OF men, aided
the southern army materially in the
early stages OF the late war, and proved
him 10 be a genius in that mode Of war;
fare. At the close OF the war Mosby
was an idol in Virginia and could have
had any honor within tie gift of her
people. Neither the prestige of the
goyernorship nor that Of the United
States senate would have been beyond
his reach, probably. But when he re-
pudiated the principles OF the confeder-
acy aud swore allegiance to Gen. Grant.
his popularity began to wane, his
friends and admirers gave him the cold
shoulder, and in few years his name,
that had been on so many tongues, lost
its magic.
The result was he abandoned what
had been a lucrative law practice at the
Warrenton bar, then the ablest in the
state. with abundant litigation before it

home and accepted 4 petty ~consulship
