Nicholson Law Violated in Northern Indiana. HAMMOND, Ind., Nov. 22.—The trials of the Lake county saloonkeepers for alleged violations of the Nicholson law were begun in the Lake circuit court at Crown Point yesterday, and the results of those trials are looked forward to with much interest both by the saloon men and the temperance people. The fight was begun at the last session of the court, when a vigorous effort was made by the temperance people to have the saloon men indicted. Nearly 500 witnesses were subpenaed to appear before the grand jury, but as that body had only two weeks in which to complete its investigations, a great many of these witnesses did not have a chance to testify.

As it is, 1.-57 indictments were returned, but had the grand jury been given a longer time for investigation there is no doubt that that number would have been increased to at least 200. The temperance people were well organized for the fight and went about it in a systematic way.

DEBvS FREE AGAIN.

He Is Now a Martyr and Will Soon Take the Lecture Platform. CHICAGO, NOV. 22.—Eugene V. Debs became a free man again at 12 o'clock midnight. His term of six months' imprisonment in the Woodstock jail came to an end while he snored blissfully in his cell. In no degree changed in his convictions, in no wise repentant of his attitude in times past, and with the same opinion that the federal courts have yet to learn how to administer justice, Mr. Debs finishes his sentence in about the same condition, both mentally and physically, as when Sheriff Eckert took him in charge 183 days ago. He is the same earnest and magnetic champion of organized labor as in days gone by, his genial disposition not having suffered in the least by his enforced confinement.

He explained all this last night while sitting in the sheriff's office at Woodstock by saying: "I have been sustained by the consciousness that I was paying the penalty for doing what I conceived to be my duty."

Had Mr. Debs so chosen he could I have walked out of the jail at midnight, but he was satisfied with the comfort of his quarters, and preferred to remain a prisoner until morning.

A party of 800 admirers and friends will go to Woodstock this afternoon to great the labor leader upon his release. A party composed of representatives of all the Central labor bodies and of the several local unions will be among those to first greet Mr. Debs. Mr. Debs will receive them at the jail and will then march around the public square with the party to the music of a brass band and dram corps. Coffee and sandwiches will be served to the visitors in the restaurants of the town just before boarding the train again.

A delegation of the trades assembly of Cincinnati will come in over the Big Four and another from the American Railway union of Cleveland will arrive over the Nickel Plate this morning to take part in the general jubilee which will be held in Battery Din the evening.

Mr. Debs has already laid plans that will keep him very much before the public. He said last night that lit* had arranged to visit all the principal cities in the country, primarily in the interests of the American Railway union but combining his efforts also to bring organized labor into a defensive alliance.

NAVAL PREPARATIONS.

Secretary Herbert Pressing Vigorously tlie Work of Defense. WASHINGTON, NOV. 22. Secretary Herbert is pressing vigorously the preparations of plans for the defense of the United States against possible attack by any foreign naval power. Already much has been done by the naval war college in that line during the session just closed under the secretary's direction, and the program for the next session, which begins June 1 next, at Newport, and runs till the 1st of October, just published, shows that the work is to be carried forward without interruption.

Twenty-five officers, 20 of whom will be above the grade of lieutenant, will constitute the next class and of these five will be selected to continue the work during the winter and prepare the plans for the ensuing year.
