After pleading not guilty to the charge each one demanded a separate Jury trial and proceeded to subpoena every member of the army as a witness, thereby hoping to get all of their comrades . jot at $2 a day during the trial of the eight different cases.

FORT WAYNE'S SHAME
Democratic Fraud that Outdoes Tammany Hall Trickery. True History of Shanibau&rirs Nomination for Mayor Torre Haute Prohibitionists in a Uox. FORT WAYNE, Ind.. April IS. The members of the "executive" committee of the Democratic city central committee, being the "ring" that had charge of the primaries held in this city as well as supervision of the count of the votes, have tendered their resignations to the Democratic city central committee. This is done at the urgent "request" of a number of prominent Democrats who were dissr.tlsfk-d with the way things wore conducted at the primaries, and also at the canvassing of the votes. Their resignation will not go into effect until after the election, but they will re tire at once from the management of the affairs of the party during the present cam paign. The resignation is drawn up and signed by each member and ls in the hands of a prominent Democrat of this city. It Is high time the truth were known about the iKIitical situation in Fort Wayne. Such a united howl has been set up by the Democrats themselves that anything Repub licans can say will sound tam in comparison. Eouis Hellbroaer, a saloon and pool room keeper, with Phil Lintlag, a brewery agent, are at the head of the ring known as the executive committee that has resigned. These two, with their friends. ha,d charge of the count of the votes. There is not the least dispute that Mr. Read was fairly chosen by the votes at the primaries on the Saturday previous, his plurality being about 110. At about 11 o'clock on that Saturday night all the precincts were In but three. The returns already gave Read a majority, and the missing precincts were known to be Read precincts. The iShambaugh men pave up the light, but the ex ecutive committee which to-day has been rorcea to resign did not give up. Trusty agents were sent out to bring in the returns, and when the missing ones were iinally counted at 12:30 o'clock Sunday morning, Shambaugh was announced to have been successful by just two votes. The official count came the next Monday, and this was conducted by this same "ex ecutive committee. As soon as a Read man put In a protest against a manifest fraud the room was cleared of every one except the committee and a few stragglers, who were Shambaugh men. With these conditions the count was continued and Shambaugh was declared elected by only une majority. .Never has such a political storm been seen In Fort Wayne as has been raging since that vote was announced. Two of the Democratic papers denounced the result and demanded the removal of the executive committee from all part In the management of the campaign. The Staats Zeitung in a column editorial this week aid the Fort Wayne Democratic ring had been guilty of an outrage that would put Tammany Hall to shame. The Sentinel spared the committee no more than did the German paper. It was growing plainer every day that the central committee must do something and do it quick. Roth Democratic papers refused to support the ticket and Democrats were coming out for Col. Oakley, the Republican candidate, by hundreds. It was therefore to stop this stampede to Oakley that the cetnral committee, at the command of the Democratic papers, called for the resignation of the executive committee. However, no one is deceived by this alleged "resignation." It is announced that the executive committer will take no further hand In the campaign. This is as false as was the nomination of Shambaugh. Hellbroner, Lintlag & Co.. as the head of the executive committee Is styled, constitute the political machine of Fort Wayne. Thev are the brains of the whole concern. Hellbroner in his pool room was giving odds of JlOrt to $T.O that Shambaugh would be the nominee and he hajl to be elected to save Hellbroner. These men have their clutches on the party machine and while they mav say they have resigned and that they will give up the management of th campaign. It ls only done to deceive. They do not mean to resign "after the election" as Is announced, except in name. The llrst thing they will do will be to re-elect themselves as the executive committee. There is one great satisfaction to the Republicans In all this. It gives Republicans the hope that Colonel Oakley will be elected Mayor of Fort Waj'ne. TOO SLOW FOIt THIS KAIITI!.

The Prohibitionists are much exercised over the announcement that the names of their candidates for city offices will not be printed on the city ticket. The law provides that the names of candidates be furnished to the city clerk fifteen days before the election. Yesterday was the fifteenth day and the Prohibitionists had not furnished their, names. They did so to-day and they are going into court, if necessary, to force the election commissioners, who meet on Saturday, to cause their ticket to be printed, claiming that the law is not mandatory', but directory.

FHEY'S ADVANCE MEN They Come to Organize a Coxey Brigade Here To-Night. The General Now at Terre HauteWliat the Governor Thinks About the Army's Coming. Col. J. A. Aubry and Lieut J. A. Salisbury, of General Frey's division of the Coxey army, arrived in Indianapolis last night. These officials came into town In a "White-line sleeper," known In the army as a freight car. They came directly from St. Louis over the Vandalla, arriving here at 5 o'clock last night. Roth men left Los Angeles, Cal.. cn March 1G with General Frey. At St. Louis a slight misunderstanding arose between General Frey and Colonel Aubry, which resulted In the latter withdrawing himself from the main branch for a time. Colonel Aubry advocated the theory that riding was as cheap as walking, which did not meet with the approval of the superior oliicer, who favors the original plan of footing it to Washington. It was decided that Colonel Aubry, with Lieutenant Salisbury, should come to Indianaiolls, organize a division of lndustrials, and join the brigade in Washington. With this punose In view the Colonel and Lieutenant set out for this city some days ago. They expect to leave Indlanai oli.3 next week with five hundred men, and proiose to meet the Coxey millions In the Nation's capital on May 1. Colonel Aubry and his lieutenant are guests of the George Hotel. Roth show distinct traces of. hard campaigning. Evidently, military title ls in easy reach of the followers of Coxey. Colonel Aubry is twenty-four year3 old, while Lieutenant Salisbury is but twentytwo. They are honest looking young fellows who would, with a practical administration of soap and water and a visit to a gents' furnishing store, make admirable candidates for a ury-fepoods store clerkship. Jjy occupation Colonel Aubry is a lookkeeper, and he stated that his lieutenant had been a tea and coffee 'drummer" until the panic came on. The Colonel's attire coni&Lsis of a light check spring suit mid a yachting cap of navy blue. Lieutenant ballsbury wear a decent suit of black. and lacks the decidedly dudlsh appearance or ms superior. However, the CJeutenant smokes cigarettes and rolls his own to bacco wdth a nonchalance to be envied by the most dapper swell. Colonel Aubry says that he expects to find an army of a million men when he gets to Washington. He Is convinced that Congress will not refuse the things to be asked for, and he has no doubt about the ultimate success of the movement. He states the platform of the Industrial army a follows: "Stoipage for ten years of foreign Immigration, employment for America's unemployed citizens, and a stoppage of alien landlordism." The Western division of the army is to ask Congress for an appropriation to be used in the irrigation of the great Western desert, which industry would give employment to thousands. The Colonel states that the notice received by the jolice from General Frey regarding advance solicitors has no reference to himself and Lieutenant Salisbury. They are seeking no help, and only desire to b- heard by the laboring men. The army reached St. Louis by the way of El Paso. Tex., and. from the statement of Colonel Aubry, endured many hardships in the Southwest. The ilivlslcn numbers about four hundred men, and will arrive In this city some tim next week. General Frey reached Terre Haute yesterday ahead of his men, to prepare a reception for them. He states that his njen are poorly clad and poorly fed, which accourt? tor the slow progress they are making. The General will secure a hall in Terre Haute and deliver i lecture for the benefit of his army. While- in that city, vesterdav, Governor Mattthews, in speaking of the treatment of the industrials, said: "A well-fed animal Is easily handled. The people had better feed them and shove them along. I do not tdleve they will commit any depredations." To-night the first steps toward organizing a division of the army in Indianapolis will be taken at a meeting to be held In the Criminal Court room. Colonel Aubry win ie xne cnier orator, lie exjects to nave no trouble in securing five hundred men, and will lgin drilling them at once He says that the most ritrid discinllno will be practiced, and that when a man grows unruly he is treated to an old-fa.shioned spanking, in which the entire . regiment uiKes a nana. uit. Ji:civi:ss vikws. Cocy, He TIiIiiLn. Is an Hint rumen t In tli IlamlM f Ciinl. Dr. Joseph Jenckes, who was formerly pastor of St. Paul's Church, claims that Coxey did not organize his industrial army of his own free will, but is simply on in strument in the hands of God to carry out the provisions of the divine law. "The fulfillment of the tror.heeles which I made in St. Raul's years ao are comlmr true, .sure enouph," said Dr. Jrnc!;es yesterday. "People call us cranks, but as they realize me iruin oi our predictions they will befrin to see ariirht. We have all alonsr contended that the immediate future ha.s In store unrest revolution ami Stygian blackness in every branch of earthly exitenv, soclil, political and industrial. Aren't our predictions romlnt: true? Take. for instance, the many scandal, uch as the l'oilurd-Hreciannde trial. Doesn't that show that there's a vortex of scandal In the social ivorld? In lln-inial spheres luox at tne tianio o; last tali and, locally. tne jnoianapoiis uaim wreeKape. Ixok at the iMjlitlcal crru;tion, and. as a result, the movement of the unemployed to Washington. They are all sure indications of the millennium." Ir. Jenckea called the reporter's attention to the fact that an Austrian savant named Tail, has recently llxed upon Nov. 11, l-'J. as the date for the second coming of the Messiah. Professor Totten, years ago. deeded that the Sivinrs advent would happen on March IT.. 1S.W. and the Doctor ha.s written a letter to the latter complimenting both upon the seeming remarkable prescience which led them to select the sntne year for thait auspicious occurrence. He expects a reply fhortly. Col. c;alvlu DlvUlon. Spci:il to the Indianapolis Journal. SRYMOt'R. Ind., April IS.-This mornIns at 8 o'clock "'A men, under Col.
