Cairo is Quiet;
Militia Will Be
Ordered Home
Special Grand Jury May Be Called
to Consider Indictment of
Mob Leaders.

CAIRO, H., Nov. I3.-Orders for the de-
mobilization Of the Fourth regiment Of the
Illinois National Guard which has occupied
Cairo since early yesterday, were confi-
IDENTIFY expected by the commanders Of the
organization this morning. The absen e
last night Of any sign Of a disposition TO
renew mob rule and the safe arrival at
Kankakee Of Arthur Alexander, who w
escorted from here late yesterday by =
companies of militia led both the local az.
state authorities to believe that there was
no chance Of further disturbance in this
city
Alexander, who is suspected of compile
ity in the murder Of Annie Pelley, is the
only individual in whom members of the
mob now have any interest. The an.
nounced intention OF Sheriff Davis and
General Wells was to land the negro at
some point so far removed from Cairo
that no attempt could be made to take
him from the properly constituted peace
authorities and it is the general opinion
here that this object was fully accom-
plished by the journey to Kankakee.
Whether special grand jury is to be
summoned to consider possible charges
against members Of the mob may also be
determined today.
Under present conditions OF public opin.
ion, It is conceded by the local peace au-
thorities that the chances of obtaining in
dictments against members of Thursday
nights mob are remote.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Secretary Of
the Treasury MacVeagh has come out with
the flat statement that not only will he
probe to the bottom the scandal growing
out Of the frauds committed in the New
York customs house by the so-called sugar
trust and its agent, but he proposes to
renovate the entire business He declares
he will shoulder all the responsibility for
such a campaign.
1t has developed also that the Depart
ment Of Justice is working in conjunction
with the Treasury department Attorney
General Wickersham has been gathering
evidence through his corps of special agents
and the evidence is being worked up by
the legal experts.
Secretary MacVeagh, however, indicates
that he is going further than merely seek
ing to discover and punish those who
have been guilty of past wrong doing. 1t
is understood to be his purpose to re-
organize the force of inspectors who kept
the close check on the general force in
past years. These inspectors will be re-
cruited with tried and trusted men, famil-
lar with the workings of the customs
houses and they will be shifted from place
to place.
The report sent broadcast that the sugar
trust actually owes the government $780,
! OOO, ,OOO instead Of the S2,135OO0 in unpaid
duties and which It paid under duress' the
treasury officials declare is absurd.
! The same officials point out that most
careful examination Of the books of the
New York customs house was made and
| that every cent due the government was
accounted for

NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-United States At
torney Wise, acting upon Instructions re-
ceived from Attorney General Wickersham,
is today preparing to appeal from the de-
cision Of Judge Holt, recently rendered In
the United States circuit court here, which
! practically frees the directors and officers
| of the American Sugar Refining company
| from prosecution in connection with the
Pennsylvania Refining company shutdown,
which the federal grand jury charged had
been brought against 1t by coercion cited
by the so-caled trust"
Judge Hollis decision exempts those in
dicted from prosecution on the grounds
that the acts alleged to have been COM
mltted are outl - ed by the statute OF
Limitation.
1t became known today that federal au-
thoritles are investigating a burglary
which occurred in the new custom house
in January, 1908.
The desk of Special Agent Parr, who
had been working on the sugar weighing
frauds, was broken open. Various mem
oranda and data of evidence that he hat
