CHICAGO, July 11.—Tho federal grand jury atter receiving the instructions of United States Judge Grosscup yeBterday afternoon returned indictments against Eugene V. Debs, president of the American Railway union, George W. Howard its vice president, Sylvester Keleher, secretary and L. W. Rogers, one of its directors, and shortly thereafter the four men were arrested. They are charged with conspiracy to commit an unlawful act—that is, to block the progress of the United States mails. Joined in the indictment with the four leaders of the railway union was James Murwin, the Rock Island striker who threw tlie switch which derailed a mail train at Rock Island on tho night of June 30. Dobs, Howard, Keleher and Rogers were taken into tlie office of District Attorney Milclirist immediately after their arrest, and after a few hours detention were released on bail by Judge Grosscup, their bonds being $10,000 each, leased oil Debs' Utterances.

The federal grand jury spent but little time on tlie case of Debs and the other leaders of the strike. The case against them for conspiracy bad been prepared some days ago by Attorneys Milchrist and Walker, and tho grand jurors had been at work two hours when tlie indictment was ready to be presented in court. It was based on some of the public utterances of Debs and the other leaders aud this was clinched by tlie original orders in writing sent out by Debs directing men on different railways to quit their work and this stopped tho running of mail trains. A large number of telegrams sent by Debs from his headquarters giving directions which extended the blockade of trains were submitted to the grand jury by F. M. Mulford, manager of the Western Union Telegraph company, under a subpena issued by too United States court. Judge Grosscup overruled the telegraph company's protest tliat the messages were privileged documents and exempt from seizure.

Debs Brought In.

Mr. Mulford had left the grand jury room but a few minutes when the jury filed out and walked into Judge Grosscup's court. Foreman Sanborn handed to the court tlie indictment, which was at once taken to the office of the district attorney. Marshal Arnold and a deputy were sent out with warrants. Shortly before 5 o'clock Marshal Arnold returned with President Debs as a prisoner, Debs was taken into Mr. Milclirist's private office. He was accompanied by Theodore Debs, his brother. There were in the office when the head of tho American Railway union arrived as a prisoner Edward Walker and Mr. Milchrist and these were soon joined by Judge Grosscup, who had been sent for to take bail. Debs sent his brother out to look for bondsmen, and while waiting for his friends to appear sat with the judge, the two attorneys for the government and the marshal who had arrested him, while the door of the office was locked to all comers.

Howard Shows Anger.

It was not long until Deputy Logan appeared with Keleher, the secretary. Iu a short time Theodore Debs returned with Attorney L. R. Bisbee, who had been retained to defend the prisoners. At 0 o'clock Deputy Logan appeared with Rogers and Vice President Howard. The latter was the only ono of the four whose face bore traces of anger or resentment as he was taken into the back room. The others took their arrest oalmly. It was after 7:80 o'clock that Clerk Burnlnun appeared and the bail bond was legally accepted. The bondsmen are Alderman William Fitzgerald, who qualified to the sum of $250,000, and William Skakel, who qualified at $."i0,00), the bonds being in the sum of $10,000 each. It was some time later when the formality of signing was completed and the indicted ones left tho building in company with thoir bondsmen.

Takes Ills Arrest Calmly.

Marshal Arnold found Debs in his apartments at tho Lelatid, when he took him into custody. The strike leader was sitting in an outer room which he used as an office when the marshal appeared and there were several porsons with him. When the marshal introduced himself Debs stepped back into an inner room asking the marshal to go with him aud then tlie marshal showed his warrant. "I am ready to go with you," said Debs, with apparent cheerfulness, as he walked into the outer room, and reached for his hat and walkingsticlt. "I have been indicted and arrested," he said to those who were in his office, and without any further remark he hurried away with the marshal. The indictment against Debs, Keleher, Howard, and Murwin is founded on sections 5,508, 5509 and 5330 of the federal statute.

Attempt on Wickes' Life.

An attempt was made Monday afternoon by a man wlioso name the police will not divulge to kill Vice President Wickes of the Pullman company with an infernal machine. Tho man entered the building carrying a small bundle under bis arm. He asked to see Mr. Wickes and was conducted to his offlce where the special officers who guard the building quietly took his bundle away. It was found to be a glass bottle with a fuse attached and filled with cartridges, iron scraps and a substance unknown to the officers. The bottle was confiscated and the man taken out of the building. Yesterday an analysis of the substance in the bottle was made and it was found to be a dangerous explosive, which would explode with great violence upon the application of a gentle heat.

Mr. Sovereign of tne Knights of Labor caid last evening "I think that the refnsal of the Pullman company to consider the proposition mode by a committee of laboring men and aldermen a dianlav of Arrncrnnna An anneal was

made to the company to have the trouble investigated to see if there was anything to arbitrate. Even this liberal proposition was not considered. I think the position of the laboring man is stronger than ever."

They Say the Southern Pacific Will Hot lie Allowed to Move Trains. SAN FRANCISCO, July 11.—The publica

tion of President Cleveland's proclamation has caused intense excitement in Sacramento, but when it became positively known that Colonel Graham and his soldiers to the number of 300 were already en route to reinforce the state troops at the capital the excitement there became intense. The strikers grew louder in their threats to resist any further attempt to clear the railroad yards and depot and their leaders loudly proclaimed that the Southern Pacific company would not be permitted to moro its trains. Nor were the hostile demonstrations confined to talk alone. Armed men soon appeared in the streets. As if in preparation for battle they transferred tlioir arms and ammunition from their storehouse on street to thoir headquarters nearest the railroad yards. No attempt at concealment was made. The strikers marched boldly through the streets bearing the weapons on their shoulders and they were loudly cheered by hordes of sympathizers. It is claimed that the American Railway union arsenal holds at least 1,000 rifles and shotguns and quantities of ammunition.

Bomb Found on the Track. IJIHEBTV, Ind., July 11.—A large dyna

mite bomb was found oa the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton railroad track here by the crew of the midnight freight. Tlie fuse had burned within an ch of the bomb when discovered.

CLEVELAND, July 11.—The first violence in Cleveland occurred yesterday when a crowd of strikers forced a switching crew in the Erie yards to quit work.

To Use Negroes.

MEMPHIS. July 11. Firebugs last night applied tlie torch to the residence of Engineer Mills, an Iron Mouutain employe who refused to join the strike.

Declared to Be Homicide.

DANVILLK, Ills., July 11.—The coroners jury in the case of Miss Clara James and Mrs. Mary Glenon, the two women killed near Grape Creek in the skirmish between miners and militia, returned a verdict declaring it to be a clear case of unjustifiable homicide and recommended that legal action be taken to bring the offenders to justice.

Will Disregard the Order. KANSAS CITY, July 11.—A high officer

of the Industrial council said last night that the order from Debs to the men on the Missouri Pacific to go out would be disregarded because the men felt that the strike at Chicago had no particular bearing on tliem.

11.—Like a thunder

clap came an order from C. E. Schaff of the Big Four last night discharging from the entire Big Four system fully 3,000 employes. The reason assigned is the blockade of trains and the paralysis of business. The men affectod are assured that they will be restored the moment a revival of business justifies. This does not affect men engaged in running trains and it does not Immediately involve the reduction of trains. It is a ourtailment of expenses.

It is not true that I had accomplices."

Almost Certain to Hang.

¶ CHICAGO, July 11.—At 5 clock yesterday afternoon Judge Bailey of the Illinois supreme court announced that he would refuse to issue a supersedeas in the case of Prendergast, the assassin of Mayor Harrison.

AN EXPERT SWINDLER.

A 'oman Wil li a Remarkable Record Just Sent to Prinon In England.

Mrs. Annie Frost, alias Mrs. Gordon Bailis, who wits sentenced to prison in Loudon tho other day on a chargo of fraud, has had an extraordinary caroor as an adventuress. She is described as a woman of very prepossessing appearance, having a good figure, pretty eyes and a pale complexion, although she is now past 40. She victimized people all over tho continent, in Scotland, Australia and New Zealand. She has assumed, at one timo and another, over 40 different names.

Her system usually consisted in renting some largo house, living in an extravagant and lavish fashion and posing as woman of largo wealth and distinguished,family. Sho would, while iu Scotland, speak of her immense possessions in Australia. Aftor becoming fixed in a new place and her crodit established sho would proceed to run up bills, borrow money and got jiossession of everything of value possible. The place would becomo too hot to hold her, and she would disappear and seek new fields for her peculiar talents.

At one timo sho obtained assistance from an old baronet to the amount of £5,000. Sirs. Graham was victimized for £8,000, and no less a personage than Professor Blackio of Edinburgh foil a victim to her guileless ways. Sho had just completed a flvo year sentenco in prison last October and apparently has lost no time in getting back there. For a time at least tho tradesmen will be safe, as her sentence was for soven years. ——London

FOR GOVERNMENT CONTROL.

Tlie Kansas Senator's Resolution on That Onestion I.II111 Before the Semite -Hill

For tlie Admission or Utiili Pusses tlie

l'l"ler House Turin Hill CunferreeH HHVO Miidi No Progress H* Yet.

WASHINGTON. July 11. —When the senate met yesterday and after tho transaction of some routine business the resolution introduced by Senator Poller was laid before the senate. Mr. Poller discussed his resolution which looks to tho government control of tho railways and coal fields and the adoption of the doctrine of a single tax. Ho appealed to senators to listen, for while he was not a prophet, nor the son of a prophet nor an alarmist, yet he had time aud time again called the attention of the country to what seems to him to be within the range of an ordinary man's horizon—the public danger. All his propositions related to ono fundamental error which tho country had fallen into—the danger of allowing a few men hero and a few men there to usurp tho governmental functions. All tho public functions should be exercised bv government officers.

May Hear More of Debn.

Ho referred to Debs as a man of whom the country had heard a great deal lately, but of whom it was likely to hear very much more before long. Air. Peffer said that when tlie Pullman company established what the people of the world believed to be an ideal community in which all should have equal rights and none special privileges, every one commended it for its philanthropy. But the charges for rent aud for the necessaries of life were deducted from the men's monthly pay and when their wages were reduced the men submitted, but asked that their rents and taxes bo reduced, but found that they were in tlie power of a corporation without a soul, until finally thoy came to the conclusion that they might as well starve in support of their rights as in filling the cofforS of Pullman.

After Mr. Peffor's speech was concluded tho postoffico appropriation bill was taken up and passed. The bill for the admission of Utah was also passed, after which the senate wont into executive session.

HOUSU AFFAIRS.

Bills Opening Indian Reservations Passed. Land Forfeited. WASHINGTON, July 11.—The house yes

terday passed a bill opening the Uncompahgre and Uintah Indian reservations in Utah, alloting lands in severalty to the Indians and restoring about 3,000,000 acres to tho public domain. Most of the day was devoted to debate on a bill extending tho act of 1890, declaring lands granted to railroads not then constructed forfeited to the government so as to forfeit tlie lands of railroads whose roads were not completed within the time specified in tho land grants. It excluded from tho operation of the act, however, lands acquired in good faith by purchase from railroads confirming such titles. The bill involved about 54,000,000 acres. It, was not disposed of.

The title of Mr. Enloe to his seat as representative from the Eight Tennessee district which was contested by B. F. Thrasher, was confirmed without opposition and the committee on elections being unanimous in the opinion that Mr. Thrasher had no ground for contest.

SENT WITH A. TAG.

Fight-Year-Old Girl Shipped From Texas to Raleigh, N. C. WASHINGTON, July 11.—Mr. Bailey of

Texas was the recipient of as queer an express package as usually falls to the lot of a member of congress. It was an 8-year-old girl with an express tag attached, and the member from Texas was made a sort of baggagemaster during the layover of a day here in Washington. Katie Brady was a resident of Mr. Bailey's town of Gainesville, Tox., where sho had lived with her parents till their death. She was on her way to an aunt in Raleigh, N. C. Miss Brady had a neat label hanging from tho lapel of her traveling jacket bearing her name and destination. She was rather frightened at all the swift changes of scene and guardianship to which she had been subjected, aud was somewhat tearful when she reached the hotel. But she was taken in charge by the steward who, judiciously or not, took her into tho diningrooin and fed her with ice cream till sho was all smiles again.

TO INVKSTIGATK THE KTItl KK.

House Committee on Interstate Commerce Will Consider the Question, WASHINGTON, July 11.—There is a

possibility that the great railroad strike will be investigated by the house committee on interstate and foreign commerce. Several resolutions to this purport, notably that introduced by Representative Crain of Texas, have been referred to the committee, and Chairman Wise of Virginia has designated a subcommittee to consider the whole question. It can bo said on authority of ono of the subcommittee that the report will recommend that an investigation of the whole railroad strike be made. This would bo broader than was contemplated in the resolutions introduced, which were for an inquiry into the troubles of the Pullman company with its employes.

WASHINGTON, July 11.—The tariff conferrees adjourned after being together for eight hours yesterday. It was stated that the discussion was being marked by great stubbornness and that neither side had yet yielded in the least on any of the main issues involved The general

STAY AWAY.

Warning to Americans of Smalt Means to Steer Clear of Mexico.
