Two Escape, but Driver Is
Bruised-Slippery Pavement
Causes Accident.

Three hremen of Engine Company
No. 7 had a narrow escape last night
when the engine turned turtle at
Norfolk street and Central avenue,
hurting them to the ground. The
apparatus, which was driven by
James McCarron, was going north
along Norfolk street, and in crossing
Central avenue the rear wheels
skidded on the slippery pavement.
Captain Cornelius Smith and Fire
man John O'Toole, who were riding
on the rear of the apparatus, jumped
before the engine capsized, but Nc
Carron, who was strapped to the
drivers seat, was thrown to the
pavement. The City Hospital am
bulance was summoned, but there was
no need for its service. McCarron
suffered slight bruises. The engine
was badly damaged.
The fire, which was in the apart
,ment of Louis M. Finger, at 30 Mt.
Prospect avenue. was extinguished
before the arrival of Engine Com
pany II, which was called to take
the place of the damaged engine.
The fire was caused by a quantity
of paraffine which was being used for
canning purposes becoming ignited.
Fire from an unknown cause did
about $15 damage to the rooms of
Joseph Pepper at 10 Union street.

The town Jail at Archer was burned
to the ground yesterday and a negro
prisoner was incinerated. 1t is be-
lieved that he set the building afire

overcome by the smoke before egress

The building was enveloped in
flames before anyone was aware of
the tragedy.
The cries of the doomed man were
heartrending, but nothing could be
done towards rescuing him. as no
one could approach the blaze.
When the building was consumed
the charred remains of the prisoner
were found in the ruins.

3S OUT OF 40 union LABOR
OFFICIALS IN THE DYNAMITE
CONSPIRACY FOUND GUILTY
VERDICT BROUGHT in BY THE
JURY At INDIANAPOLIS At
10 O'CLOCK THIS MORNING
LARGEST NUMBER OF LABOR
MEN EVER FOUND GUILTY AT
ONE TIME IN HISTORY OF THE
UNITED STATES.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Dec. 2s-of
the 40 union labor officials accused
of conspiracy In the transportation of
dynamite, 38 were found guilty in
the federal court here this morning.
Two of the accused men, Herman
Seiffert and Daniel Buckley, were ac-
quilted and were Immediately dis
charged.
The verdict was brought in by the
jury shortly before 10 o'clock this
morning and In part was as follows:
I'VE, the jury, hereby find the de-
PENDANTS. Ryan, Butler, Hockin.
Tveitmoe. Clancy, Cooley, Young.
Higgins. Munsey. Webb, Farrell,
Barry, Morris, Legleitner, Baum,

Painter. Smith, Anderson, Hannah.
Phillips, Wachtmeister, Murphy,
Mooney. Basey, Sherman and Kline,
guilty as charged in the indictment,
and Defendants Buckley and Seiffert
not guilty"
Immediately after the verdict of
the jury had been read the federal
court adjourned until $50 o'clock
Monday morning, when Judge Ander-
son will take up the matter of SEN
tences.
During the reading of the verdict
some of the defendants paled notice
ably, but the majority of them took
the announcement without showing
any signs of emotion. Sobs among
the women, wives and relatives of
the defendants, and the screams of a
child in the lobby heightened the
awfulness of the scene within the
court room.
This is the largest number of
1aboring men ever found guilty at
one time in the history of the
United States.
The jury in the case was out Al
hours. 1t is expected an appeal will
To taken by the attorneys for the
defendants after sentence has been
passed.
When the adjournment of court
was announced the 38 men found
guilty by the verdict were formed
into a double line and marched from
the federal building to the Marion
county Jail.
The verdict is taken to mean that
every one of the defendants is liable
to the maximum penalty within the
law. which is 80 years in the peni-
tentiary and a fine. 1t is within the
power of the court, however, to sus-
pend the sentence or impose fines
without Imprisonment, or impose
both.
The general belief today is that
the average sentence will be about
Is months to two years in the peni
tentiary.

It still behooves the people Of this
state to watch the judicial nominations
carefully. This year the people them:
selves, and not conventions, may choose
their candidates for the supreme court.
Now is the time to scrutinize records
carefully. If there be a judge whose
original selection was due to railroad
or other interests, the time to replace
him with an impartial minded jurist
will soon be at hand: The mere fact
that a judge is in office gives him no
rights to it, unless his career shall
have independence: Of Judgment, free
dom from partisanship, without leaning
to the side of the interests: A 3udge
that will give the benefit of the doubt,
if it exists, to the peoples side is in
finitely preferable to one who sticks
at technicalities to overthrow the
popular will. Watch the judiciary, for
there is the last citadel Of: the interests.
