GRAND JURY BUSY AT SPRINGFIELD Six Alleged Leaders in Riots Arrested as Result of . Investigations
TASK IS NOT HALF DONE. i 8MALL TOWN NEAR SPRINGFIELD ISSUES WARNING AND NEGROES HAVE BEGUN TO FLEE FOR THEIR LIVES. Springfield, 111., Aug. 22. The grand Jury yesterday indicted six more alleged leaders In the recent race riots. Four of them were Indicted four times each for malicious mischief and Inciting riot, and two were held on two charges each. All were the result of the destruction of Lopcr's restaurant. Those . Indicted today were Ernst Humphrey, huckster; Rudolph Bredmeyer, mechanic; John Schienle, grocery clerk;. William Sutton, cabman; Herbert Carey, blacksmith, and one other man whose identity was kept secret at the order of Judge Creighton because he is understood to have fled from Springfield. It is rumored an Indictment charging murder also is to be returned against Humphrey and more Indictments are anticipated against Kate Howard and Abraham Raymer, who are under serious indictments. Among others who may be indicted are many living in nearby towns. Jury's Task Not Half Done. That the grand jury has not half finished the task is shown by the state ment of Assistant State's attorney Wines tonight. He said the prosecutors were confident half a hundred or more indictments would be returned within the next ten days. The coroner's Jury returned a verdict saying Louis Johnson, the boy who was killed during the riot at Loper's restaurant, was shot by an unknown person. This decision was reached only after a delay, Coroner Woodruff having discovered no autopsy had been made. The coroner and a physician went to Mechanicsburg, where they exhumed the body and made an examination. The physician reported to the jury that the boy was killed by the shot which Btruck him in the neck. Rolla Keyes, the boy who was shot accidentally by a playmate, which occurrence almost caused a riot under the supposition that a negro had shot him, Is said to have a good chance of recovery. William II. Bowe, who was shot and beaten by negro thugs, is thought to be on the road to recovery. News came from Buffalo, fifteen miles from Springfield, today, saying that race hatred has reached a high pitch there. In front of the interurban station at Buffalo is a large sign: "All niggers are warned out of town by Monday, 12 m., sharp. "BUFFALO SHARP SHOOTERS.

Hall of the Night Riders, will probably go to the Boston Americans. Charles Dryden, in the Chicago Tribune, says: "Connie Mack has signed a pitcher named Salved.

Following closely upon the sale of Billy Gray to the Washington Americans, It was announced that "Rube" Ellis, the young left fielder of the Los Angeles team, has been sold to the Cincinnati Reds. FILING OF BRIEF STOPPING POINT Marks End of Route in Freight Interchange Case That Was Long. HOPE. TO WIN THE CASE. ATTORNEYS FEEL REASONABLY SURE OF FAVORABLE VERDICT IN CELEBRATED CASE NOW IN COURT. The filing of the brief In the case of the Commercial club of the City of Richmond and the Indiana State Railway Commission against the P., C, C. & St. L. Railway company, yesterday, marked the consummation of a long legal preliminary. The counsel for the plaintiffs has hope for favorable action upon the part of the high court. The point at stake is one of principle and fair dealing, as much as law, but sentiment never weighs in the balance of justice. The case began with the petition of the Commercial club before the railroad commission. An orGer was made by the commission directing the roads to make a physical connection and interchange freight. From this order the Pennsylvania took an appeal unto statute to the superior court of Marion county. The superior court affirmed and sustained the order of the commission and the Pennsylvania then ap pealed the judgment to the superior court of Indiana. The case has been presented so far upon the complaint filed by the Penn ylvania railroad in the superior court and the appeal to the supreme court is upon the sufficiency of the complaint filed by the railroad company. If the supreme court upholds the complaint then the case will be sent down for the trial in the Marlon superior court and tried upon its merits and evidence introduced by both sides the case being tried in the regular way. If a demurrer to the complaint is sustained, the Pennsylvania railroad will then be compelled to either file an amended complaint or abandon its proceedings. The presumption is that the railroad company in its present complaint has alleged all the fact which will support its contention, and if defeated on the present complaint the matter will probably be closed.

FF READS OFF WALL Bandage Removed From Their Eyes Since Roosevelt Calls for Hughes. WANT ON BAND WAGON. CHASING IN FROM StJMMER RESORTS AND MOUNTAIN SIDES AND HOTFOOTING TO CATCH REAR HANDLES. New York, Aug. 22. Chairman Tim Woodruff and the other fellows in the high up ranks among the republican politicians, who had a dream that they were the leaders of political thought in the Empire state, got the word what to do today direct from The People. As has been told in these dispatches from day to day, these "leaders" could not see the handwriting on the wall. They kept hotfooting it down to see the People at Sagamore Hill to convince him that Hughes would not do at all. Now they have been told that he will do and they are chasing each other into town from the mountains and seaside resorts, doing a regular Marathon, and preparing to do the mightiest kind of high Jump acts to leap into the band wagon on which President Roosevelt is holding the ribbons and doing a classy bit of driving and steering. Any lingering doubts as to the certainty of Hughes' renomination that may have existed were dissipated today by a formal statement from James S. Sherman, the republican vice presidential nominee. "The sentiment of our conference with the president yesterday," he declared at republican national headquarters, "was decidedly favorable to the nomination of Governor Hughes. No other candidate was discussed." is ASKED By SUII Glen Miller Traction Squabble in Court for Another Hearing. HILL IS THE PLAINTIFF. CLAIMS HIS RESIDENCE IS DAMAGED AND ANNOYANCE WILL FOLLOW OPERATION OF INTERURBAN CARS. This afternoon In the circuit court suit for injunction against the city and the T. H. I. & E. traction com pany, to prevent the placing of a trac tion line through Glen Miller park, was filed. In this suit George W. Hill, 2277 Main street, was named as plaintiff. He represents all the citizens who have protested against the placing of a traction line in the park. In the suit the plaintiff sets forth specific damages, alleging that his home is opposite the point where the park line joins with the Main street line and that his property is damaged by the operation of cars through the park; that it mars the view from hi3 home and that he will be greatly annoyed by the additional noise and confusion. The injunction proceedings were prepared by Attorneys Wilfred Jessup and A. M. Gardner. It is not known when the case will be brought to the attention of Judge Fox. MERLE CAMPBELL NAMED. Accused of Being Co-respondent in ' Divorce Suit. Mrs. Hazel F. Carter in her suit for divorce against Charles H. Carter, alleges that Mrs. Merle Campbell had been receiving marked attentions from her husband. In her divorce she asks for the custody of the child, Nolan Dale Carter, two and one-half years old. The couple separated December 17, 1907. LIGHTNING KILLS TWO. Followed Railway Rails Into Tunnel, Exploding Dynamite. Pottsville, Pa., Aug. 22. Lightning followed steel rails thirteen hundred feet into a tunnel in a mountain side and set off a charge of dynamite, killing Philip Ellinger and George Hollenstein, workmen, and probably fatally injured a third man. ONLY SMALL FIRE. Just three minutes before noon the fire department was called out by a fire on North Second street The blaze was on the roof of a small residence and was quickly extinguished. Many people thought the fire alarm balls were the noon bells so there are now several watches in the city three minutes fast. CITY STATISTICS.

H'S S G iAL FIRED LAST NIGHT Opened the Campaign at Des Moines Last Night, Attacking Republicans. TELLS HIS PARTY'S AIM. CLAIMS IT ASKS ONLY EVENHANDED JUSTICE IN TAXATION EACH INDIVIDUAL SHOULD CONTRIBUTE TO SUPPORT. Des Moines, la., Aug. 22. Comparing the attitude of the two dominant parties on the tariff question William J. Bryan, the democratic candidate for the presidency, at the base ball park, in this city last night before a vast audience, fired the first gun in the campaign. He attacked the republican promises of tariff revision and asked if the democratic party was not justified when it included in its platform the declaration that "the people cannot safely entrust the execution of this important work with a party which is so deeply obligated to the highly protected interests as the republican party." "The whole aim of our party," he said in summarizing, "is to secure justice in taxation. We believe that each Individual should contribute to the support of the government in proportion to the benefits which he receives under the protecting government. We believe that a revenue tariff, approached gradually, according to the plan laid down in our platform, will equalize the burdens of taxation and that the addition of an income tax will make taxation still more equal. "If the republican party Is to have the support of the people who find a pecuniary profit in the legislation of the taxing power as a private asset in their business we ought to have the support of that large majority of the people who produce the nation's wealth in time of peace, protect the nation's flag in time of war and ask for nothing from the government but even-handed justice." TAKES HIS OWN TREATMENT NOW Physician Inoculated While Making Experiment. Chicago, Aug. 22. Dr. A. Lagorio, head of the Pasteur Institute has been inoculated with hydrophobia germs while experimenting with an inoculated guinea pig. He is taking his own treatment and is not alarmed. Issue Ordered to Cover Expense of New Washington Township Road. MAY BE SOME COMPLAINT. The county commissioners met this afternoon and passed an ordinance authorizing the issuance of bonds to the amount of $1G,UOO for the building of the Washington township road. This was the first road petitioned for in Wayne county under the new law. It has been a thorn In the side of the commissioners ever since the petition was filed with them. The bonds authorized today will be placed on sale two weeks from today. It is regarded as probable that remonstrators against the road will seek to prevent the commissioners from selling these bonds by filing suit to enjoin. - YOUNG MAN DIES. Joseph Elstro's Bright Prospects Are Dimmed Early. Joseph Elstro died at the home of his father, Henry Elstro Thursday afternoon at the age of 24 years after a long illness. The deceased was one of the bright young men of the city and before his death was employed at Dayton, O., in architectural work. He is survived by his father . and two brothers. The funeral will be Monday morning at 0 o'clock from the St. Andrew's church. The burial will be in the St. Andrew's cemetery. REPORT DENIED. Denver, Aug. 22. President Winchell, of the Rock Island railroad, denies report that the road has been placed in the hands of a receiver. He says it is a stock jobbing rumor. CHARGE AGAINST LAPAYLIA.

This became necessary because of all police stations and city Jails being swamped by wholesale arrests recently. A HOPELESS SITUATION. Odd Climax That Waa Tfot a Fart of the Play. Frank Gillmore, the actor, tells the following story about his aunt. Miss Sarah Thome, who was leading woman at the Theatre Royal, Dublin, many years ago. "Miss Thorne was given a part In 'The Masked Prince,' the second piece of the evening," said Mr. Gillmore. "Glancing through her part hastily at breakfast, she noticed that there was one scene in which she hadno little to say that it coulil be learned justbefore going on. She decided to skip that scene and get to the longer passages. "When night came, and my aunt made her appearance, she did very well in the llrst scene. In the second scene occurred the passages she had skipped In the morning. She rushed to the corner in which she left her book, but it was not there. Finally, the stage manager, receiving no response to his repeated calls, sought her out and pushed her on the stage. There she was, before a large audience, without the slightest idea of what she was supposed to do or say. The scene was a courtroom. At a high desk sat the presiding judge, letter -perfect in his purt, because he had it ready to read from the papers in front of him. A trial was taking place, and Miss Thorne, to her horror, discovered thnt phe was to be the principal witness, on whose answers hung the entire plot of the play. The Jwdge adjusted his spectacles, looked at his part, and said in solemn tones. 'The witness will now ! state what she saw the prisoner do on this particular night. "What was she to answer? She glanced around helplessly. She hadn't the faintest idea what she had seen the prisoner do on that particular night. The critical moment had arrived; some one must speak, but she couldn't. Her eye alighted on one of the characters in the play who looked particularly reliable. He looked like a rprson who could get one out of any sort of difficulty. So, pointing at him, she exclaimed in impressive tones, Ask that tnnnr "The entire cast seemed disconcerted by this remark. They did not know precisely what ought to be said, but instinct told them something wai wrong. The judge, thinking he might ! have made some mistake, turned over ' a couple of pages of manuscript and. having convinced himself on this point, again addressed the witness. My aunt glanced at the uncomfortable gentleman and, no other idea coming to her, again exclaimed. 'Ask that manT This concentration of public attention was too much for him, and he sneaked off the stage with a feeble 'Excuse me. Of course the situation was a hopeless one, and the curtain had to be rung down. Success.
The Spanlnh Main. "What do you understand by 'the Spanish main?" Such was the problem propounded at the club lunch table, and many and varied were the answers. In the "Wreck of the Hesperus' it was remembered that there spake up "an oil sailor who had sailed the Spanish main," and it wa3 recalled that in the "Icgolsby LegsndV one says. "My father dear he is not here; he seeks the Spanish main." There was, however, a certain . vagueness about the speakers views as to what particular thing was meant by the word, some thinking one thing and some thinking another, and only one speaking with the authority of "an old sailor who bad sailed the Spanish main." Such a discussion tends to show how satisfied most of ta are to half know a thing or to think that we know without troubling about veriflcarlnn JfiTjdftT) f hyj-wtrla-
