Grand Jury Returns True Bills Against Leader of Irish Rebellion and Soldier Accomplice.

LONDON, May 25.—The grand jury today returned true bills against Sir Roger Casement, leader of the Sinn ?§in revolt, and Daniel J. Bailey, the former British soldier who is held as his accomplice. After a short deliberation the Jury returned true bills. The judge fixed the trial of Sir Roger for June 26.

The action of the grand jury follows the preliminary hearing before police magistrates at whiclj Casement and BaUey withheld their defense and were held without bail pending the grand jury deliberations.

Seventy-five grand jurors were summoned before Lord Chief Justice Reading today and from their number 23 were selected to decide whether indictments for high treason should be returned against the two prisoners. Their decision was reached promptly.

In explaining the law to the jury the judge stated it was necessary that treason should be proved by overt acts., In the indictment against. Casement as Jt stood he said six overt acts were mentioned.

The court nominated Alexander Sullivan, of Dublinj and Artemus Jones, who appeared for the defense at the preliminary hearing, as counsel for Casement. It is understood that Prof. J. H. Morgan, who took part in the defense at the preliminary hearing, also will appear, but under the statute only two attorneys can be nominated.

Holman Gregory and W. T. Snell were namc»i to defend Bailey. Thomas Sc&nlon, member of parliament and one of the secretaries of the Irish" party, also will appear for him.

GASOLINE SUBSTITUTE GIVEN TRY-OUT HERE

Young Inventor Gets a Gallon Can and Sends a Ford About Twelve Miles

A Terre Haute inventor, O. W. Hancock, of 2617 South Seventh street, got his chance, Thursday.

Hancock claims to have a fluid that will replace gasoline and he loaded Sam Lane, agent of the Standard Oil Co., and Col. E. H. Clifford, of the Chamber of Commerce into an auto and took a run, approximately of twelve miles.

The machine used was a Ford runabout. It belonged to a chauffeur, Antoni Georgilius. It was drained dry by Lane and cold water was put in the radiator for the purpose, Lane said, of getting as nearly a cold motor as possible. As for the rest of the story let Lane tell it: "He's got something, I don't know Just what it is. We drained her dry and give her cold water in the radiator, then Hancock got out a gallon can, an ordinary looking can with a Brass cock on top. I took along two gallon cans of kerosene from the Standard Oil plant and offered them to Hancock, but he refused them and used his own can. He claims his invention is something to be added to kerosene. I know the carburetor adjustment was not changed because I took the dash adjustment off the car. He put in the gallon of fluid and we ran from 2617 South Seventh streiet, to Youngstown, thence west to the Bono road and then returned to the starting point. We had no speedometer, but I would say we went approximately twelve mnes. The fluid worked the motor Just as well as the best 'gas.' Hancock is very secretive about it. All I know Is that what he poured out of the can ran the motor and we did the twelve miles on about two-thirds of a gallon. "I couldn't say whether or not it will cost him more td make than gasoline. He claims he can produce it for about the price of kerosene. I didn't see him produce any, however. All I know is that whatever it wasit ran the motor. "Since he is from" Terre Haute, I hope he has got it. I would like to see him make a million dollars."

The ypung inventor Just sawed wood. He didn't tell what he made the fluid out of, nor how, nor how muoh it cost, nor any of the details. He was especially1 secretive when the Standard Oil man was about.

WILSON MAKES CLEAR MAIL SEIZURE STAND

Vigorous Language Characterizes Note to Britain—Resolution Calls for Shipment By Warships.

WASHINGTON, May 25.—Vigorous language, equalling almost that employed in the last communications to Germany on the submarine issue, is understood to characterize the notes delivered to the British and French embassies here yesterday protesting against interference with neutral mails on the high seas.

The United States does not concede the right to even inspect first class mail in transit on the'high seas, assuming that these do not include anything more than correspondence and are not made the vehicle for the supply of, contraband to the belligerents. The "fact that a neutral vessel carrying mails between neutral countries is compelled to come into a belligerent port to comply with belligerent naval rules it is held does not remove the mail matter on board from the privileged character of mail on the high seas.

A resolution authorizing the transportation of mail to and from neutral ports on naval vessels, and declaring that "any interference with our mails shall be resented by such ships with all power of the navy and the ships" was intrbduced today by Rep. Tague of Massachusetts. It was referred to committee.

TESCUM SAVED

HIM FROM THE

DRINK CURSE

Mr. Brown says: "Between all happiness of life and the worst evil that can befall mankind, stands DRINK. It points toward two different paths—the one leads to happiness, prosperity and all that makes life joyful to one's self and one's beloved the other points towards destruction, ill health immorality, poverty and the lowest depths." He says: "I have been through it all, and I curse the day when a seeming friend who represented the devil in human form tempted me to taste that first drink, because there is no such thing as 'that first was my last drink,* or I can stop whenever I please.' Once the curse, drink, gets a hold of anyone he will irrevocably become a victim of alcohol some day he will be unable to release himself from the claws of this poisonous reptile, unless he is tfortunate enough to have a sister, mother or wife, who forces him away from the influence of that xhrice cursed evil. My advice to every woman who has a loved one that drinks, be it ever so little, is to administer Tescum in his meals, as my sister has done in mine, and thus saved me secretly from a rapid downward path. Many a mental and physical wreck could regain perfect balance and again become a useful, member of society, many heart-break-ing experiences of wives, mothers and sisters could te avoided and stopped if my advice is followed- Tesoum is: harmless and inexpensive as compared to the cost of drinking. A seven-day treatment costs only $1, or 14 cents a' day. By giving Tescum you force the drinker to choose the path that leads to happiness." Get Tescum from Nevir Central pharmacy or any first-clasa' drug store.—Advertisement.
