Shelbyville Citizen Demard that lie Take Hay to Prison. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. SIIELLYV1LLE, Ind., Feb. 10. Crowds of people stood around on the streets all day discussing the verdict in the Hay case and criticising Sheriff Luther because he does not confine Itay to Jail, as he would any ordinary prisoner. This morning Lu ther was asked if Ray spent the night in Jail, and he informed the questioner that it was none of the public's business where Itay spent the night. From the best information obtainable Ray slept in his own house, in charge of Deputy Sheriff Chester Luther. Public feeling Is rising to such an extent that an indignation meeting Is likely to be held before the week passes. In charge of Deputy Luther,. Ray paraded the streets to-day, laughing and talking as If he were getting ready to take a trip to Hot Springs. He spent part of the morning in a barber shop, surrounded by his friends and former associates. At noon to day ho took dinner at the sheriff's reslonce. it is very probable that to-morrow Im peachment proceedings will be begun against Luther.- An attorney is authority for the statement that all that is necessary is the affidavit of a citizen that Luther Is not doing his duty, and that there exists great danger that a prisoner may escape, Such an affidavit would be presented to the Judge, who. If the case merits it, may suspend the sheriff and appoint another to serve, snena lutnvr is a canaiuate tor reeieciion iwo years nence, ana me xreaiment of Ray differently from other prison ers may result in his defeat.

MARTIAN SIGNAL LIGHTS MR. EDDY SAYS THEY WOULD IlEQIIWC lOO MILES OF MIIIHORS. Experiments with Mirror Flashes and L.Islit from Snow Important Results Uenrins on Army Signals. . NEW YORK, Feb. 10. William A. Eddy, at Bayonne, N. J., to-day continued and i mensur mnieted his tests of the fi9hpS n iV - -- i compared with sun-lit and cloud-shaded I snow. As a result of to-day's experiments Mr. Eddy found that mirror sun flashes were about fourteen times as bright as cloud-shaded snow and eight times as I bright as sun-lit snow. Previous experi ments showed that sun-lit snow was only about twice as bright as snow shadowed by clouds of ordinary density.. Mr. Eddy considers these experiments important. In that they bear upon the visibility of army signals from snow-capped mountain peaks. The test for the relative lighting powers was made by taking a sixteen-candle power oil lamp held close to a sheet of paper. the center of which had been made semi transparent by oil.

TO BE SET AT LIBERTY

MUS. MAYI1I11CK SAID TO HAVE KC CHI VCD A PARDON. neport from London that the Long Suffering Amerlenn Woman AVI 11 De Given Freedom To-Dar. CHICAGO. Feb. 10. A special cablegram frcm London to the Chicago Record says: "A well-authenticated report reaches the Record correspondent to-night to the ef fect that Florence T. Maybrick will be released from Aylesbury prison to-morrow (Monday.) At the United States embassy nothing is known about the matter, and Ambassador Choate when seon at his residence to-night declined either to deny or cenfirm the rumor. Ever since Charles Thomson Ritchie, the new home secretary, came into office, last November, efforts to secure the release of Mrs. Maybrick have been active, and have continued up to within a very few days ago. The efforts of Ambassador Choate, although made informally, have been un ceasing. When Mrs. Maybrick was allowed the privilege of seeing her New York lawyer, Mr. Clarke Bell, last sum mer, that gentleman told the Record cor respondent that the chances for his client's release were more favorable than they had been at any other time during her twelve years' incarceration. The authorities conversant with attempts to secure the famous prisoner's freedom assert that if at last she is to be given her liberty, this may be regarded as due to the influence of King Edward, and may be in terpreted as a token of appreciation of American sympathy over the death of Queen Victoria. n nnrPTi fr mrtnrn KriM HKIaiIo 1 Ut IHKcb ML 11 SUPPOSED TO BE IMPLICATED IX THE 31 AXILLA, I A., RODDERY. Safe Contained SIO.OOO, of Which 912,0()0 Was Cash None of the Money Ha? Been Recovered. SIOUX CITY, Ia.f Feb. ld.-Prompt and effective work by the authorities at Manilla, la., resulted in the arrest of three men who were accused of having been impli cated in the theft of a United States ex press safe, said to have contained J40.000. The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul train on which the safe was taken from Sioux City, arrived at Manilla at 8:03 p. m. Saturday night. The Omaha train was late, and James Sturtevant, of Sioux City, the ex press messenger, did not hurry in un loading the goods and packages from his car. The express safe, with other articles, was unloaded and placed on the platform, and Sturtevant and the baggageman went to the other end of the platform to get another truckioad. When Sturtevant re turned he noticed that the articles on the truck were disarranged, and a glance showed that tho iron box was gone. There was great excitement, and no time was lost In spreading the alarm. City Marshal Ferrell hastily assembled a posse and vigorous work was begun. Snow lay thick on. the ground, and it did not take long to discover the tracks of two persons, who evidently had been carrying some heavy object directly from the truck, as it stood upon the depot platform. They carried the safe a distance of about two diocks ana men loauea it into a wagon I " "- tiuu unu ibii liicic III nailing. 1 ilC lf riÄ0UiJi I1? 5f " was rorced a-w V V J UtlU . A illG CaiO open and the contents ab stracted. The men there abandoned the safe and went their way on a new track. it was not difficult to trace them, however, and this morning three arrests were rr.ade. The men arrested are John Jackecn, John.Stovall and Charles Hayes. All are men who livo at Manilla and are well known. Their reputations heretofore have r.ot been bad. They stoutly protest their innocence, but the authorities believe the evidence against at least two or them will Irove conclusive. The safe which was stolen contained in the neighborhood of Ho.UOO. Twelve thousand was in cash and the remainder in drafts, checks and. van ous valuables. While the robbery undoubtedly was deHterately planned, as the horse and wagou were in waiting in a convenient spot, it is not believed that the men knew they weo n.aklng so rich a haul. They had no means of knowing the contents of the safe, oniy that it was used for carrying valuables They found an unusually favorable opportunity when Sturtevant lert the safe on the ttuck, and had It not been for the tell-tale Hacks in the snow, it is not likely that I crrests would have been made so promptly. Jackson, Stovall and Hayes have been in the habit of hanging about the depot r.t train time, but that was not considered signlticant, as it Is the custom of a number of townspeople at Manilla. Mrs. Jackson, wife of John Jackson, also v.-as arrested, but at a preliminary hearing held this evening, she was released. T.io examination will be continued to-morrow. The threo prisoners are in Jail, having been arable to furnish bonds of JlXUX) each. The authorities say the shoes of two of the- men exactly fit the tincks in tho snow at th? depot, where the safe was carried cff. None of the money or valuables has bien recovered.
