today's Indictment was returned so
quickly.
The grand jury Immediately re.
sumed It's session to take up the In.

Standard Oil was given direct re-.

The Indictment contains nineteen

The Indictment. MS explained by

company received no payment of five
cents ton day from the oil com.

About 200 seals were killed, but the
raiders were eventually repulsed as

the morning of July IT, two native
watchmen shot and killed two OF an
armed landing party. Crews from
the schooner. under protection OF
dense fog, shot seals in water close
TO the shore most of the day.
On the evening of the same day
crews of at least three schooners
made concerted raids on widely sep.
Grated rookeries. The raid on Sea

native guards after considering firin4

"Raid on North East Point was

killed.
"The raid which was apparently

crew in five boats, was repulsed By
Agents Lempke. Judge, and native

were killed snd five captured.
Most of the seals killed on shore
