GREAT CROWD WILL
SEE MRS. CHADWICK.
Cleveland Is AnxiOusIy Awaiting
Her Appearance.


Cleveland, o.. Dec. 13.-The home
coming of Mrs. Cassie L. Chadwick
tomorrow will create more excitement
in this city than any event of recent
years. The probability of a tremen-
dous crowd at the depot has compelled
Chief of Police Koehler to arrange de-
tails of officers to restrain the crowd.
and United States Marshal Chandler,
to whose offices she will be taken i'm
mediately upon her arrival, has de-
around his office to prevent the throng
from taking the room by storm.
The prospects tonight are that Mrs.
Chadwick will be compelled to go to
Jail unless she give bail to the amount
of $4,000, and she may be asked to
furnish security as high as $52,50O.
The county grand jury resumed its
investigation OF the affairs of Mrs.
Chadwick, but returned no indictment
against her. Notwithstanding report
to the contrary. Prosecutor Keeler
announced, however, that the appear
ance of Iri Reynolds, secretary and
treasurer of the Wade Park Bank. be-
fore the jury to give evidence of the
woman's transactions. had materially
strengthened the case against her.
1t is understood that an Indictment
relating to the uttering and forging
of the $5,OOO,OOO note on deposit in the
Wade Park Bank. which was the prin-
cipal matter considered by the inves-
tigating body to-day, has been draft
ed. Whether or not it will be return

DEPUTIES WERE R0WDY.
Boxed the Ears and spat in the
Faces OF the Guards.

Buda Pest. Dec. 1S.-Hoping to at
tract the sympathy of the populace the

House of Deputies met early to-day,

other leaders. marched In procession
to the Parliament building. The pub
lie, however. displayed scant interest
and only a few idlers cheered them.

lice commissioner. who requested them
to enter singly. He was roughly
thrust aside and maltreated. whilst
the procession, dripping and with mud
dy boots swarmed into the chamber

vanced to the guards of the Presidents
tribune. consisting OF forty men. with
a roar of execration and ordered them
to quit the chamber. Acting on in
structious, the guards remained mute,
but immovable. which so incensed the
opposition deputies that they boxed
the ears and spat in the faces Of the
guards.
The deputies fought their way to
the platform, tore 1t to pieces, scat
tered the debris over the house, tore to
atoms the codes of law on the presi-
dents table. smashed the tables and
chairs and destroyed the platform and
distributed the broken pieces among
the deputies, who thus armed. attacked
the guards, and after a brief fight,
drove them from the house. The desks
were then torn down and the interior
of the house was almost completely
wrecked.
Seven of the guards were injured in
the scrimmage before they fled from
the chamber.
Having piled the debris in the middle
of the chamber, the rioters crowned
their work of destruction by erecting
model of a gallows from broken
benches, from which an effigy of Pre-
mier Tisza was hanged.
Soon afterwards Premier Tisza, with
other members of the Hungarian min
istry, appeared in the building and
were greeted with deafening shouts of
abuse, "Scoundrer and Rogue" be-
ing the mlldest terms employed.

AGAINST THE GRAFTERs
Was the Decision of the Court or

Appeals.
Washington, Dec. 13.-The District
of Columbia Court of Appeals to-day
affirmed the decision of the criminal
court in the postal conspiracy cases of
August w. Machen, George E. Lorenz,
Samuel A. Croft and Diller B. Croft,
who were sentenced to two years i'm
prisonment in the West Virginia peni-
tentiary and to pay a fine of 100000
The Court of Appeals announced that
after considering every point made by
counsel, no error had been found in
the proceedings in the trial for which
the judgment ought to be reversed.
The opinion called attention to re-
marks of special counsel for the gov
ernment. in which the latter had said
that the only juror who hung out in
the star route trials subsequently was
indicted for bribery, and stated that
If the lower court had not interrupted
this line of argument. as It had done,
the case would have been reversed.
1t is probable that the counsel for
the defense in the postal cases will
now seek to carry the cases to the Su-
preme Court of the United States.
