Seventeen Indictments In
Springfield Riot Cases

Springfield, III. Sept. 4.-The spe,
cial grand jury called TO probe the
recent race war, adjourned last night
after returning seventeen indictments
This makes a total of III during the
month.
Among the indictments returned
were four against Springfield police
men. They are indicted for alleged
failure TO suppress the riot when de-
tailed for that duty.
Sheriff Werner, Chief of Police VIII
bur Morris, Captain Charles Walsh
Of Troop D, Springfield. and other Of
ficers are commended by the grand
jury.
The report condemns alleged COW
ards among the officials, and says
After the most diligent inquiry, we
condemn in unmeasured terms the
cowardly, contemptuous action Of
members Of the police force who. hav-
ing taken the oath OF office, failed to
do their duty; men who were paid
from money obtained from the pockets
of the people of this city to protect
life and property; men who were
ordered by the head of the depart
ment of police to 60 out and dispense
the mob and not only failed to use
club, handle a pistol or raise voice
against the mob and on the side OF
the law and order, but some Of whom
are shown to have assisted in doinI
the work that has brought destruction
to thousands of dollars worth Of prop
erty and has brought the blush OF
shame TO every law-abiding citizen Of
this city; men who under oath were
bound and who had they acted
promptly, could have driven back to
the obscurity from whence It came
the mob that for a time assumed to
hold Springfield in its bloody grasp

Parker Finds Democratic
Sentiment Growing

New York, Sept 4.-Former Judge
Alton B. Parker who has just return
ed from visit to the Pacific coast,
where he made several speeches for
William j. Bryan, conferred over an
hour last night with National Chair,
man Mack at Democratic national
headquarters. Plans for a speaking
campaign in the East by Mr.. Parker
in the interests of the Democratic tick
ct were discussed. Ae report circu-
lated today was to the effect that the
former Democratic presidential eandi-
date might be nominated for governor
of the state Mr.. Parker had nothing
Ito say. regarding the report.
4 visited Oregon, Washington and
Montana" said Mr.. Parker. and
everywhere there was a surprising
growth of sentiment for the Demo
cIdllc uckel
4 talked with many Republicans
who told me that they were going to
support the Democratic ticket. Some
gave one reason, some another I met
an Ohio manufacturer who told me
that he was seriously considering sup
porting the ticket on the ground that
he wanted to maintain the status quo.
He said that with Bryan in the White
House and Republican senate, moth
ing could be done, and everything
would go in the business world just
the same.
4 am going to make several
speeches in the East for the party
but the dates and places have not
been fixed.

indian DEAD

Ardmore, Okla, Sept 4.-Jerry Nc
Lish Of Wapanucka, one Of the wealth
lest and most influential young m
dians Of the Chickasaw nation, died
in his room at the Wilmington hotel
of uraemic poison. After spending an
evening with his wife and friends in
the hotel parlor he retired at mid
night, apparently in his usual health.
An hour later his wife was awakened
by his groans and found him uncon-
scious. She called a physician and
efforts to relieve his suffering were
ended by death at $50.
It was the wedding OF jerry Nc
Lish to pretty Brunetta Howell, daugh-
ter of a prominent Indian physician
and banker at Davis, few weeks ago,
that set mark for future Indian mar
riages. II was a unique affair in that
both contracting parties, the minister,
the bridesmaids, the best man, and
all the attendants were Indians The
young lady who played the wedding
march was one that was peculiarly
fitting the twentieth century descend
ants Of the American aborigines.
McLish was 22 years old, highly edu-
Gated and accomplished and a success
full business man. His bride was one
Of the prettiest and wealthiest Indian
girls Of the United States.
