AFTER POLITICIANS
indianapolis Election Thieyes
Scurry to Cover When the
Federal Probe Starts.
NEWSPAPERS ARE WARNED
They Must Not Tell Names of Those
Called On to Testify Before Gov.
ss eminent Grand Jury.

Indianapolis, Jan. 5-When William
~. Patten, auditor OF Marion county
went before the federal grand jury
yesterday the federal probe OF charges
that negro voters were intimidated al
the polls at the recent election and
that there had been many irregulari
ties of registration was formally
opened.
The fact that 100 local men already
have been subpoenaed to appear this
week Indicated that the probe would
be thorough. Because it follows so
closely the federal indictment of ia
| Terre Haute men. including Mayor
Dom NJ. Roberts and many OF his
official family. the report of the grand
jury Is awaited with great interest
and in some circles with apprehension.
Newspapers Enjoined to Secrecy.
Politicians were aware yesterday for
the first time that corps of depu-
ties were busy serving summonses.
Patten took with him to the grand
jury room the original certificate of
the September and October registra-
ton In certain precincts.
AS In the Terre Haute investigation,
when newspaper men were called be-
fore Federal Judge Anderson and
warned not to publish names of those
called before the grand jury, 1t is sup
posed that this probe will be con-
Quoted with secrecy. The Terre Haute
probe opened with the arrest of eigh-
teer Terre Haute men on affidavits
sworn to in that city. 1t is now I'M
derstood that most or all of these men
voluntarily confessed to alleged elec-
ton frauds and were released on their
own recognizance Few, if any, volun-
tary confessions are expected in the
Indianapolis probe.
Prosecutor and Sheriff Called.
I, 1t Is understood that among the
number called are several men who
appeared before District Attorney
Bailey the day following the October
registration and made affidavits that
they saw Samuel v. Perrott chief of
police, personally distribute riot clubs
to several policemen in the Ninth pre-
cinct Of the Third ward, at about 6
o'clock on registration day. This is
a negro ward. The negro vote here
is heavy and strongly Republican, and
the heavy vote comes after 6 o'clock.
The city administration is Democratic.
These men swore that these riot
clubs were used to intimidate negro
voters. Many negroes, they said.
were driven away and some of them
slugged. with the result that the ne
gro registration was small
The election which followed resulted
in Republican landslide in Marion
county, though the state went Demo
cratic.
