MORE CHARGES
AGAINST MORSE
FURTHER CRIMES ARE LAID AT
THE DOOR OF NEW Works.
"FRENzIED FINANcIER."

NEW YORK, Feb. 14.-New COM
plants against Charles W. Morse were
filed today with the special grand jury
Of the county Of New York now In
vestigating alleged banking and in
surance crimes in this county. Those
complaints, it is understood, amount
practically to a charge of grand lar
ceny in connection with one of Morse's
steamship schemes. The sum In
volved is 100000, which, it is de-
clared. Morse took without color OF
right from the treasury Of the Hudson
River Navigation Co.
In the federal courts the grand jury
there was also busy looking into the
affairs of Morse and his associates
and as far as known it is believed they
transgressed the national banking
laws. Indictments, it was expected,
would have been handed down tomor-
row or next day, but owing to the In
ability of the stenographers to finish
them in time for tomorrow. and as the
grand jury is not in session on Sat
urday, none is likely to be returned
until next week.
In the meantime Mr.. Morse when
he arrives at this port on the Etruria
Saturday or Sunday, will be put under
arrest, either directly by detectives
from the office of the district attorney,
or indirectly through notification to
his counsel to produce him in court
at the earliest possible moment to be
arraigned and put under bail.

Mossville, Service and Soso are the

about noon, and in most instances is
reported to have carried the buildings
in it's path completely off the lots on
which they stood. Nearby fields were
covered with wreckage, and the
branches of several trees we're Uttered
with small household articles.
l.. s. Morrison, resident of Moss
vile, who came here after the storm,
said that he was outdoors during the
blow, and was compelled to grasp a
wire fence to keep from being blown
away. He said the dead at Mossville
are Alec Windham and wife, negroes.
Near the town, he said, four white
persons had been killed, man and
wife and their children, whose names
he did not learn.
The seriously injured at Mossville
are ]. w. Robertson, manager Of the

IGNORANT BOYS ARE ARRESTED
Judoe Hart Lays Down The Ia"
on Deputies Of
Officers.

NASHVILLE. Tenn, Feb. 10
Ice Morris and William Sloan, deputy
game wardens, were each fined SlO
by Judge Hart yesterday on charge
of false Imprisonment. II was
charged that they arrested FRANK
Brown and Enoch Gee, colored boys
for hunting rabbits in Shelby Bottom
and that they were fined by Justice
w. II. Allen without a fair trial. IL
was charged that these game wardens
were in the habit of arresting every
body who owned dog, and that the
arrests we're made without proper
warrants or proper service OF the war
rants that they had.
This is the first step in breaking up
the alleged abuses. 1t is claimed that
there are a number of deputy game
wardens who make arrests for the
sole purpose of getting the fines and
without cause. 1t is also claimed that
there are many game wardens, nn
name officers, etc, who used 10 hans
around the Office of Justice W. II.
Allen and practice extortion on ignor-
ant prisoners. Allen himself has been
indicted for official extortion, and his
case is set for trial Monday. Humane
officer McGarr has also been indicted
and Ex-Deputy Sheriff ]. H. Adkins
is under indictment for impersonating
an officer and extortion.
Judge Hart in announcing his sen
tence. said that warrant to be prop
erly issued should be issued on an
affidavit, and that the justice should
issue them for the public good and
not for the purpose of working VI
costs. filing the docket, or getting
cases. He stated that the warrant IL
this case was not properly issued OF
properly served, and that when the
negro boys were brought before JUS
tice Allen they were unfairly infiu
enced to plead guilty, and that nc

paroled and later, without reason, re
