Gets Fifteen Months, and His Associates Shorter Terms—Violated Neutrality Laws—Lord Russell Says the Expedition Was Clearly an Invasion. Verdiet of Guilty. The jury in the Jameson South Africa case at London returned a verdict that all the defendants had been found guilty of the charge of violating the neutrality laws in invading the territory of the South At rican republic. Besides Dr. Jameson, the defendants were: Major S.r John NN illoughby, Col. R. Grey, Col. H. b. NN bite, Major R. White and Captain Henry F. Coventry. Dr. Jameson wtis sentenced to fifteen months’ imprisonment without labor, Sir John Willoughby to tifn months imprisonment. Major R. NN bite to seven months' imprisonment and Captain Henry F. Coventry, Col. R. Grey ami Col. 11. F. White to Jive months’ imprisonment each. Lord Russell’s remarks wore distinctly hostile to the defendants. He began by pointing out that there was no I doubt the prisoners had taken part in or abetted the proceedings at Pitsani and Mufeking. where the invading forces were mustered preparatory to entering the Transvaal. It was entirely unimportant, in the opinion of Lord Russell, whether the foreign enlistment a< t had been proclaimed at the places named in 1895. There was no doubt the expedition was of a military character, and whether it was aimed to overthrow the Transvaal government or to force a change of the laws in the interests of others, it was equally an expedition against a friendly State.

Hammond, United States consul at Budapest, who has been asked to resign. State Department officials decline to discuss the published statements that charges have been filed against the consul, but merely say that his resignation has been asked for because “he was not acceptable to the Austrian government.” Friends have intervened in Mr. Hammond’s behalf, but the department recognizes the right of foreign governments to insist on the withdrawal of officials who may lie obnoxious to them.

TERRORS IN THE TOILS. The Whole Gang of Chicago Bobber* Now Under Arreat. After five months of terror, caused by a series of the most daring robberies ever perpetrated in any city, Chicago now rests easily, for the perpetrators are in custody. For some time the police have had out their drag ne«t and have arrested every suspicious character they have-

found in the city limits. More thana hundred have been hauled into the cells, but it is now almost certain that only ten. men have been .1 implicated in the I robberies. These | ten are Red Sulk livan and John j Orme, the lead--11 ers of the gang who have become famous as “the long and the-

short men,” Thomas McGowan, Milehael Monahan, James Dempsey, Barney Hunt, Alfred alias “Sleepy” Burke, Joseph Gordon, Jesse Thames and John (McLane. The police are still looking for Jesse Thames. The others are under arrest. All of the prisoners are under 22 yeara of age, but uro old in crime. Some of them were waifs and bootblacks who never knew a home; others are the vicious (children of respected parents. It was■while confined in the Pontiac reformatory Jnst year that a criminal,organization was formed among them, at the instigation of Orme, who is 21 years old. An oath bound each member of the society to the other by a pledge of death. Any one who betrayed another member of the society was to be put to death. If arrested and put on the witness stand and he told the truth there, he was to lie shot in the court room. If he was put in a police pweat box and betrayed his comrades a. bullet was*to end his existence at the first opportunity. On the other hand, if one of them was captured and remained loyal, every effort was to be made for bis release, Money was to be used and thisfailing, it was arranged that the others-

Jr. CHIEF OF TOT ICE BADEKOCH. were to go into whatever court room» their associate might be in with their frtstols, stand off the bailiffs, shoot down thepolice who might resist them, and fly with the rescued one In the event rescue in a court room was not favorable, they had another scheme for rescue. That was to follow the train on whict^ their convicted associate would be, hold it up when it was in the country and take him off. That is the kind of young.fellows the police department has been fighting against all spring and summer. Chief Badenoch says that in his lifetime and with the knowledge which he has of once famous Chicago criminals, be has never met with a more bloodthirsty or better organized band of thieves than the one which Orme put together. In February the gang who had finishedtheir terms at the reformatory began their depredations. Citizens were held up on their way home at night. In almost every instance assault folowed the robbery and the victims in some cases were found unconscious in the streets. The thugs transferred their operations to the large stores and the depredations there have been alarming. More than a score of business places have been robbed and one murder has been committed. That more lives have not been sacrificed is due to the fact that the robbers have not met with resistance, for they were prepared at all times to shoot down whoever opposed them. Their method almost invariably was to enter a store, draw revolvers, get the drop on all present and then grab the money box and escape before the frightened proprietors, employes or customers could regain their senses sufficiently to act. Sometimes two men did 1 the robbing, sometimes three, four or five,, but in nearly every case a tall man and a short man took a leading part, and fully half the robberies were committed by these two without assistance. The tall man was very thin. The short man had a red face covered with blotches and pimples. For weeks the police seemed dumfounded. Almost in their sight the robbers operated as boldly as if no police officer existed. The activity displayed by the gang was something surprising and the detectives \ A’ I.^ A? MOXAHAN. ORME. DEMPSEY, never knew where they were going to operate next. One night they would do a job in the eenter of the city and a few hours later they would complete another ten miles away. This they kept up for weeks. Finally about two weeks ago Red Sullivan was captured while drunk and from him was obtained information w hich, led to the arrest of the others. Orme, Dempsey and Monahan were the last to be arrested. They were captured in Detroit, where they bad laid plans for similar work. Orme, the leader, is a good dresser and would be taken for a student. There is nothing about him to suggest a criminal and on this account he succeeded so weLL.
