JONES HELPED TO
.PAClFY PRISONERS
Convicted Captain and Politician
Baldinger Assisted the City
Sergeant.
Especial to The Times-pispatch.,

NORFOLK, VA. Jan. ia curious in
cident of the fire here tonight was that
when the panic began among the prison
ers of the jail and City Sergeant j. L.
Lawler had determined that they must
be removed for safety, Captain T.. w
Jones ana o. NJ. Baldlnger offered their
assistance in controlling the prisoners.
Captain Jones Is under a sentence of eisn-
teen years In tho petentiary for the muir
der OF Maud Cameron, and O. M. BaldIn-
ger Is under "a sentence of two years for
the forgery of certificates for the trans
fer of voters at the June election. CAPTAIN
Jones was formerly a member of the Sew
enty-first Regiment. and he was as cool
and commanding during the pitifu panic
among the negro prisoners as IL he had
been on dress parade.
The panic among the negroes of the jail
was fearful at the time when the wall of
the peanut factory fell against the wall OF
the jail, but despite the confusion of
transferring the prisoners hut few of them
escaped. IT was Inevitable that some of
them should escape. because it was con-
sidered necessary to get them out of the
jail as quickly as possible to save their
lives.

ICE MEN INDICTED
BY FEDERAL JURY
Two Companies and Officials
~.Eeld-Trust ffeebs in ss
- Washington, D. g. n.

Washington, July 12-The grand jury
of the District Of Columbia today re-
turned indictments against the Amer
ican Ice company and the Chapin- Sacks
Ice company and their local officers on
the charge Of entering into conspiracy
to increase the price of ice. At the re.
quest of District Attorney Baker, Judae
Wright issued warrants for the arrest
of the indicted officials.
In addition to the two companies
named, indictments were returned
against Samuel A. Kimberley, local
manager, and George F Hoover, super
intendent Of routes Of the American
Ice company, and Arthur A Chaplin,
president, and Samuel @ Redman, sec
retary and treasurer Of the Chaplin
Sacks company
The proceeding is under the Sherman
antitrust law, and the indictments
charge "a combination and conspiracy
in restraint of trade and commerce.
The American Ice company and the
Chapin-Sacks company transact about
rs per cent of the ice business in the
District Of Columbia, and while these
two companies were formerly competi-
tors, it is charged that April 20 last,
they entered into a combination agree
| ing not to sell to dealers who should
sell ice at wholesale for less than rs
cents per hundred pounds or at retail
| for less than 40 cents per one hundred
pounds
This combination is said to have had
| the effect Of destroying compet etition not
| only, between the two principal COM
panies. but also among the smaller
dealers .: ..'.
