The Failure Iteoord.

FIVE MEN INDICTED.

MILWAUKEE, July 12.—Frederick T. Day, prosident, and William Planltinton, vice president of the defunct Plankinton banlc, are among the officials of the bank against whom indictments were returned Tuesday afternoon by the grand jury, which for more than a month has been engaged in an investigation of the Plankinton bank and Lappen failures. Frank A. Lappen is also indicted, but the names of three others said to be officers of the bank are withhold until the capiases for their arrests can be served. The indictment against the bank officials charges illegal banking in receiving deposits while the bank was insolvent. The indictment of Mr. Plankinton will occasion general surprise.

Judge Walber asked tha jury if the indictments were returned under the first or second section of his charge, and the foreman replied the secvjnd. This section of the judge's charge to the jury cited the statue which made it a criminal ott'ense for the officer of any bank or corporation to receive any deposits or transact other business with a knowledge that the bank or corporation was insolvent. The court directed the clerk to issue capiases for the arrest of those indicted, and warned the jury and others with a knowledge of the proceedings to divulge nothing concerning their findings.

J. P. Murphy, cashier of the Fire & Marine Insurance company's bank, has been appolutod receiver of the Lappen Furniture company and required to give a bond for $50,000. Mr. Lappen, anticipating the action of the grand jury, quietly left the city some weeks ago. He was in Chicago until June 13, under police surveillance. On that day he left there, and it is said that he is now in Mexico. At last accounts Day was in a sanitarium near Chattanooga —nearly a phy sical as well as a financial wreck.

FOUND IN A HEAP.

Ghastly Discovery In the Ruins at Jackson Park.

TEN BODIES ARE FOUND IS ONE PILE.

One of Them Is That of a Wouian—A Total nf Ttventv-Three Undies Discovert -Identification of Only Four

Possible— Aid for the Living.

THEIR AWFUL SEARCH REWARDED. CHICAGO, July 12.—Early this morning it was learued that ten more bodies had been found in the ruins of the world's fair cold-storage warehouse. Nine of these bodies are of men and one of a woman. The corpses of the dead lay piled all in a heap near the foot of the elevator shaft. When the searching party discovered the remains a crowd of morbid spectators surrounded the fire lines. The enormity of the unexpected find staggered the firemen who had made the fearful discovery.

Bow the Ghastly Find Was Made. For an hour before the fearful discovery was made a sickening odor issued from a spot near the east side of the ruins to the left of the doorway. Three men wore set to work on this place, and just before the order was given to stop work for the day a heavy beam was lifted and right below through the interstices of half a dozen crossed and broken timbers and bent rods of iron could be Keen a heap of bodies. This was the source of the foul smell. The bodies are quite badly burned, but they lay at the very bottom of the ruins and had been partially protected from the fire by water. It is impossible to tell just how many bodies lie in this terrible pile. The men who discovered them differ as to whether the total number is ten or eleven, but is probably the first named number. One is said to be a woman because of her dress, which Is partly unburnt.

Twenty-Three Bodies Found. Thirteen bodies were found during the day, and those found as narrated above bring the total number up to twentj'-three. Individual identification is possible in but four instances, and most of the bodies recovered will be buried by mourners who know not which of the human cinders was their son or father or husband or companion.

The fdur identified positively are: Paul Schroeder, William Denning, John McBride and N. M. Hartman. Four of the bodies were found during the morning. The distorted and frightful objects wore found in a heap near the northeast corner of the black heap of debris. From each human trunk arms and legs had been burned away and the heads of all but one were missing. Shortly before 5 o'clock ia the afternoon the fifth black stump was dug out of the tangled mass of iron and timbers near the iron pipe that stands as a monument to the awful work of Monday.

Will Make a Close Inquiry*

Coroner Mcllale impaneled 'a jurv at the morgue during morning and began an inquest. After an inspection of the ruins had been made, the jury visited the morgue and view.ed the remains of several unidentified viotlms, also the body of Capt Fltzpatriok. Adjournment was taken until Thursday. Coroner Mcllale declares that the investigation will be a thorough one in order that the responsibility may be placed where it belongs. The assertion in general is that the world's fair management is not wholly without blame for the disaster. Time and again, it is said, word was sent to the council of administration of the dangerous condition of the cold storage warehouse, but they paid no heed to it.

Aid for the Living.

Numbers of subscriptions of ^generous amounts for the relief of the families of the dead firemen are being spontaneously made by large-hearted citizens. Boxes have been placed at various points about the city and the world's fair grounds for the reception of subscriptions, and money is being contributed in other ways. Subscriptions are coming in from fire departments of other cities. The Trocadero management has kindly uome forward with an offer to donate the entire receipts of the performance a week from next Saturday to the dead firemen's families.

The American Exhibitors' association, the national commission, and, in fact, all the organizations having such connection with the fair that they may bo depended upon to assist in collecting money will join the throng of fund-raisers. Upon the beard of trade, a place where sympathy for bereaved families iu cases like that of Monday always takes a quick and deep root, no time was lost in starting a subscription list

Several private contributions of $1,000 have been received, Messrs. Ed Partridge, Potter Palmer and Byron L. Smith being among those to send checks for that amount. Phil Armour will contribute largely to the fund. The mayor, it is understood, will appoint a committee of business men to take charge of the arrrangements for the receiving of subscriptions.

Hercules Works Assigns.

Losses entailed by the fire caused the Hercules iron works to make an assignment iu the county court. The Chicago Title A. Trust company is made assignee. The company was incorporated In 1885 with a capital stock of $400,000. It owns a plant at Auroi a covering 7 acres. Its assets are estimated at $400,000, against $200,000 liabilities. The fire caused a loss of $200,000.

FRIENDS OF SILVKlt MEET.

DENVER, Col., July 12.—The mass meeting called by President Merrick, of the State Silver league, and joint committees of the chamber of commerce, real estate and stock exchanges met at the Coliseum hall at noon Tuesday. The building was crowded with 1,000 delegates from every section of the state who had come to see what could be done toward crystalizing sentiment in Colorado on the establishment of the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Among the delegates were these leading men of the state: Senator Wolcott, Congressmen Bell and Pence, Gov. Waite, David H. Moffatt, president of the First national bank, with many other bankers and.members of the Colorado general assembly.

But One Feeling.

There appeared to be but one feeling in all the gathering and that was free coinage or nothing. In his address calling the meeting to order President Merriak said: "We ask for justice, for our riRhta. We will nocopt nuihlQK less. The pioneers of Colorado have hud their contract violated. Petitions and rcmonstrauccB have been unavailing. The crime of 1873 has KODC on all those years unpunished. Wo aro liore to demand ail early and speody settlement of the silver question."

Hurls Dellanoe at Europe.

Gov. Waite, in his address before tha convention, was warlike. Among other things he said: "If the money power sliull attempt to sustain Its usurpation by 'the strong hand' we will meet that Issue when 1s forced upon us, lor It Is better Infinitely that blood should flow to the horses' til-Idles rathor than our national libertiCB bo destroyed. If it Is true that the United States Is unable to carry out Its governmental policy without the dictation or coasont of foreign powers if we are a provluce of European monarchists, then we need another revolution, another appeal to arms, and we have won that battle If war la forced upon us we will send to Halifax a f»r greater number of 'British tortcs,' accerdlng to our population, tkan our forefathers sent there after the revolutionary war. The war has begun: it Is the same war which must always be waged against oppression and tyranny to preserve the liberties of man."

The address creatod a sensation, and in great confusion the sentiments were indorsed. Judge Kerr, of Pueblo, spoke in the same inflammatory vein as the governor.

Views of the Bankers.

Presidents of Denver banks and other capitalists contributed $1,000 toward the expense of delegates to represent Colorada at St. Louis, Washington and other places. They said: "Wo wish to add our voice to your sentiments because our welfare depends groally on the prosperity of the trans-MlB6lsslppl states We t^or thu use of sliver as money and that It be freely coined with gold at the present ratio of sixteen to ons, without discrimination lu favor of or against either metal."

DEMAND CLOSED GATES.

National Commission on Record—By Vote of SI to 0 the National Body Declares the World's Fair to Be Illegally

Opeu on Sundity. CHICAGO, July 12.—By a rote of 34 to 0 the national commission adopted resolution on Tuesday declaring that the ruling now being enforced by the directors for the purpose of opening the world's fair gates on Sunday has not been approved by the commission and is being enforced without the assent or authority of the national commission.

The passage of the resolution and the discussion which preceded its adoption were accepted by exposition people generally as indicating the early and complete surrender of the commissioners and directors who have made the fight for a seven-day fair. Only six commissioners voted against the resolution, while of the fifty-four who were recorded for it at least twenty voted with the Sunday openers when It came to a test on the rule submitted by the directory to open the fair. Conspicuous among the conversions was the admission of Commissioner Burton, who was a leader in the tight for opening, that a Sunday fair had not been a success and would probably be abandoned If the directory aud commissioners could be brought together in a conference on the subject.
