hood's Alleged Scheme.
ALL THE CITIES SELECTED.

Willing to Put Dp Money.
PITTSBURG IS ON THE LIST.
Manager Hanlon. and the Local Team
Eetnrn From Indianapolis.
GENERAL BASEBALL NEWS OF THE DAT
Sensational details are published relative
to the new baseball organization that is al
leged to supplant the National League. It
is stated that Pittsburg is on the list The
local ball team returned from Indianapolis,
and Manager Hanlon talked interestingly.
There were some exciting Sunday ball
games.
Chicago, September 22. Buying and
selling of baseball players "for revenue
only," happily, it appears, will end with
this season, and the men dealing in that
kind of "merchandise" may have to seek
new employment, when the individual
members of each of the eight ball clubs
become stockholders and commence to "play
ball" in earnest instead of for an alleged
pennant. A morning paper says:
The transfer work is to be done by the
Brotherhood ot Professional Baseball Play
ers, of which John M. "Ward, shortstop of
the Sew York club, is President; Dennis
Brouthers, first baseman of the Boston
team, is Vice President, and Timothy J.
Keefe, the Xew York club's great pitcher,
is Secretary. Most of the details have been
arranged, and remain but to be carried out
after the end of the present playing season
and before the beginning of that of 1890.
Everv man in the League clubs of 1889,
with the exception of half a dozen, among
which Anon, Williamson and Burns are
notable examples, is a member of the
Brotherhood, and sworn to stand by the
new scheme. Its ontlines arc as follows:
THE IfEW ASSOCIATION.
The new organization is to be known as the
tJnited Business Association.
It is to be made up of eight clubs, as follows:
Boston, Iew York, Brooklyn. Philadelphia,
Pittsburg, Cleveland. Buffalo, Chicago. Of
these two are new clubs and not in the present
National League. They are Brooklyn and
Buffalo. The present Indianapolis team is to
be droppod bodily for Brooklyn, where Asso
ciation ball and Sunday games arc said to be
unpopular. The present Washington team is
to be transferred to Buffalo and strengthened
by the aadition of Rowe, White and Myers,
late of Indianapolis.
In each city local capitalists are to operate
the teams formed and placed there by the
Brotherhood, giving a bond of $25,000 for the
performance of their part of the ork. Albert
L Johnson is the Cleveland capitalist, and his
active participation in the deal as a mission
ary caused blm to be mistaken for its national
head. It has no national head at this time out
side of the officers of the Brotherhood. The
association's officials are to be elected this fall.
SALARIES GUARANTEED.
The players are guaranteed their salaries at
the 1ES9 rate for 1S90 and a share of the profits.
All expenses and receipts are to be pooled for
the general benefit, and gate receipts divided
equally between the clubs. The first S10.000
profit is to go into prizes to be distributed
among the clubs as playing prizes. $5,000 to
first. $2,500 to second. SL500 to third, SLOOO to
fourth. Of the first $80,000 after this, $10,000
goes to the capitalists, $10,000 to those of each
club. The next SS0.O00 goes to the players, and
all other profits are pooled half and half. Each
plaver shares equally with the ofiers.
Each club is to be governed by a board made
up of 8 men, 4 capitalists and 4 plajers, and
the main body by a senate of 16, each club
having 2 representatives, 1 a player and the
other a capitalist.
EACH CLUB'S STOCK.
Each clnb is stocked for $20,000, hal f of which
can be held by the players. The S20.000 is in
200 shares of 100 each. No known gamblers
are allowed to hold stock. Of course the classi
fication and reserve rules go with the present
management, but the 1SS9, or classification
figures, are taken as the basis for ISM.
Scare cards and general privileges are to be
considered as profits and pooled as such. The
Association is to make and bell its own balk
Nearly all the work of rearing the fabric as it
stands to-day has been done at Cleveland this
summer. Tho papers were sent to each League
club and signed by the pla ers. Anson. Bums
and Williamson have not signed the Chicago
agreement. In each city capitalists are at
ork over grounds and plans lor next season.
If ere is a list which shows the magnitude of
the scheme and the class of men in it:
BACKERS OF THE SCHEME.
New York Hugh Grant, Mayor; C. Van
Cott, Postmaster. Uptown grounds are in
view.
Cleveland A. L Johnson. Grounds on the
Brooklyn line secured.
Brooklyn A Street .Railroad Company and
Ktate Senator associated with Johnson.
Grounds secured.
Buffalo Jim White. John Brown and Georgo
Myers with local capitalists. Already Olympic
Park is in the syndicate's bands.
Pittsburg Local capitalists. Exposition
Park, Allegheny, secured.
Boston Unknown, but work complete.
Philadelphia Adam Foreoaugh, of circus
fame, and Hamilton Disston, local business
men. Grounds a mile nearer the business
center than Philadelphia park, secured.
Chicago Board of Trade men, friends of
Pf effer, as backers count on securing Black
stocking Park.
SOME OP THE PLAYEBS.
Among the players who are already on the
Association's books as stockholders are: Keefe
and Ward, of New York; Brouthers and Clark
son, Boston: Zimmer and Faatz, Cleveland;
Rowe, White and Myers, Buffalo: Dunlap and
Hanlon, Pittsburg. Cleveland was the first to
complete its list. All the 15 men are on the
agreement, and their plan is to engage Tom
Loftns to manage them. Competent men will
be engaged at various ether points.
Tbe men figure that it will be to their in
terest to manage themselves and a general sur
veillance will be kept up by tbe members of
each team on their icllows. A man's interest
in the Association will be continued aslong as
be is a member of it. For bad work he will be
released and bis share turned over to bis suc
cessor. A structure to last forever is to be
reared by the Brotherhood.
PROFITS AND LOSSES.
The profits and losses being pooled, agencral
pooling of Interests and players must follow.
All extra men employed, except at intervals
under the present state of affairs, will be util
ized nnder the new plan, and extra talent put
where it will do the most good. The Associa
tion as it stands to-day has no bead. As soon
as the season closes, a meeting will be held at
New York, at which laws for the governance
of the new body will be framed, officers elected
and tbe machinery of the Association set in
motion. The piesent idea of tbe leaders in the
movementisto elect A. G. Mills, formerly of
Chicago and now of New York, who succeeded
M. A. Hulbert as President of the League in
18S2. Mr. Mills is President of the Association
of American Athletes, and is deeply interested
in the baseball deal.
HOW MATTERS STAND TO-DAY.
So tbe great baseball stands to-day. The
players are united and present a strong case.
They numoer about 120. The League club
owners, practically eight men, say: "Let ns go
to fighting at once. We can beat you. If you
pnt in a team her, we will fill your places with
new men, cut down the prices and see bow
smoothly; our craft will sail in rough water."
The League men do not know, however, how
broad Jlie movement among the players is.
They expect that only part of each team will
go out. In this they are mistaken. Tho Brother
hood has some 130 members. All are 'In with
this play" and in all the eight League clubs, not
ten men win oe leit
.m connection witn luis story it may pe eaioj
that the Brotherhood fleures and estimates are
all the result of calculations and figures made
by players appointed for the purpose in each
liea-rue town last spring. There was talk last
June ofaceneral strike In the League cities
before the morning game July 4, as a
means of forcingtheclnb managers to wipe out
the grievances about which the Brotherhood
had complained. Each chapter of the Brother
hoodeach League club is a chanter in itself
voted on the question of "strike" or "reorgan
ization" on the plan outlined above, and laid
before the Brotherhood early in the year.
IT WAS DISCUSSED BEFOBE.
The vote was overwhelmingly in favor of re
organization. This serves to show how long
the plan has been discussed by the Brother
hood. The first inkling of it got out through
j the "leaking" of some parties in Indianapolis
to whom Al Johnson had told the scheme's out
line. But the "leakers" mixed up the details.
Those given above are absolutely correct.
The League men say: "If the Brotherhood
has any grievances, we are ready to discuss and
remove them."
The Brotherhood leaders say: "It is too late.
We have been deceived before and will not be
again."
The Brotherhood is at this time negotiating
with the players in the American Association,
and a plan of non-interference will probably be
agreed to. The Brotherhood will then say to
the American Association clubs: "Keep out
of this fight and we'll leave your players alone.
If you do not we'll take them."
Among the plans of the Association is the
adoption of the double umpire system and the
formation of a staff of umpires, including
Gaffney, Ferguson, McQuaid, John Kelly,
Knight, Lynch and two others.

two home runs being made off his ineffective
delivery. He simply tossed the ball over the

worth and heartily deserved their victory. A

ICOREierONDENCE OF THE DISPATCH.
lNDiANAroLis, September 22. The local
enthusiasts who have been, up to this time,
feeling very confident that the Hoosiers would
not only beat Pittsburg' out in the League
race, but would head Cleveland off also, are
not so happy and sanguine as they were before
the final series with the "Allies" commenced.
It was thought that the home team would cer
tainly get two of tbe three games played, but the
shoe was on tbe other foot when the battle was
over, and as a result the Hoosiers are prac
tically tied Tilth the Pittsburg team. They
have a very rough road to travel during the
coming week. New York and Boston will be
here in tbe order named, and as is well known
both of these teams are after "blood" and will
make a bold effort to down the Hoosiers.
Heretofore Boston has been rather an easy
mark for the local men. but the club is not re
garded as a snap by any means. Getzein is
himself again, however, and the club is now in
much better shape than it has been for a month
or more. Of late the management has been
securing pitchers from all directions, and it
looks now as if the club will have at least seven
men for that department within a week or two.
It has five now and there are two counties to
hear from.
While in Chicago last week Manager Glass
cock signed Fanning, who has been a member
of the Davenport club up until recently. He
was with Bulfalo last season and a part of this.
fanning did splendid work with Davenport,
and it was on his record made in that clnb that
tbe local management signed him. He was in
the. box against Pittsburg yesterday, bnt was
injured early in the game and had no chance to
show what he-can do. He will be retained,
however, and given another trial. Young Fee,
who was secured in the East while tbe club
was in Washington, has pitched two games that
lead the management to think that be is going
to be a laniiner. He is a big, muscular fellow,
with great speed and fairly good command of
the ball.
While in Boston Manager Glasscock had a
talk with Burkett, of the Worcester club, and
it is understood he, too, is to join the Hoosiers
within a few days. Glasscock has been watch
ing this young man for some time, and thinks
that be will develop into a good one. He is
left-handed, and is a rattliug base runner,
strong batter and a olever player in all re
spects. 1 think the scheme is to give Burkett a
trial in some of tbe coming games, and if he
shows up well he Hell be signed for next season.
Pitcher Shrcve, who was released by the
Hoosiers in tho spring and went to Detroit,
came back to Indianapolis to-day, and it is
not improbable that he, too. will help tbe local
team out. He was always effective against
New York, and it is likely he will pitch in one
or two of the series nith that team. Itis un
derstood that Detroit could not reserve Shreve
under tbe terms of his contract, and that he
refuses to play there again. He wants to come
back to Indianapolis. It is the evident inten
tion of the local management to get every
pitcher in sight, hoping to find a "phenom" or
two for next season. President Bruh is out
again with a positive statement that the
Hoosiers will be in tho Leagne in ISM.
A. G. Ovens.
MANAGER HANLOX EXPLAINS.
Ho Shows Where McQuaid Was Wrong
Opinions About DIaaL
The home baseball players returned from
Indianapolis last evening looking weary
enough for their short trip. They arrived at
the Baltimore and Ohio depot, and hurried
away to tbe otber side of the river without
delay. Manager Hanlon took time to talk a
little about baseball affairs, and tbe little dif
ference between himself and Umpire McQuaid
at Indianapolis. Tbe manager said:
"McQuaid was wrong, and be owned it up to
me on Friday. The trouble arose concerning
Bassett, who bad three strikes called on him,
and he allowed the next ball to hit him. Stalcy
Miller had changed the signs on him, and he
was fooled. He ought to have been out ac
cording to rule, but McQuaid gave him bis
base. I came in from the field and pointed ont
to the umpire that he was wrong. Tbis was the
second time be had made a mistake
and I argued strongly He ordered me out of
the game and fined me S10. However, on Fri
day when I went to show him the rnles he said
he bad made a mistake. He also allowed Denny
and Glasscock to rnn to second base to coacli a
man from there. He did not even reprimand
them until I spoke, and then he fined Denny
S5."
Regarding the local clnb. Manager Hanlon
said: "Maul will certainly pitch against tbe
Washingtons this week. Sowders is not in
form at present and is too unreliable. I think
Maul can become an excellent pitcher if he will
only put bis heart into his work. He knows
now that he has nothing to depend on but
pitching, as his batting is not KOod enough to
keep him in the field. He has all the curves
necessary, and all that he requires is a good
heart. I really believe that after he pitches a
few games be will be looked upon as one of our
best men. At any rate, we'll try him. I don't
think we'll havo time to try Jones and Hess "
Either Galvin or Staley will face the Sena
tors to-dav, and Fcrson or Keefe will be in the
box for the visitors.
JOHNSON CONFIRMS IT.
He Says the New Baseball Scheme is a
Sure Go.
St. Louis, September 22. Will Johnson, the
street railway magnate of this city whose
name has been connected with the schemes of
the Base Ball Brotherhood, has just returned
from New York.
Some of the players have seen fit to talk,"
said he, "and although I was sworn to secrecy
some time ago, I guess there is no longer any
effort at concealment. To begin with, let me
tell you that every Player In tho League, with
the single exception of Anson, has signed an
agreement to join in the movement, Anson,
as I said, is the only recalcitrant, and he is an
old horse who will be led to tbe stable next
year, so that his absence will not be felt. Every
one of tbe others bas signed a pledge to stand
by this agreement.
"With all the details in view, lam free to
say that I believe the Brotherhood will prove a
success from the start. Besides furnishing the
best ball in the country, tbe players will have
the sympathy of the people with them. So
man living that 1 know of feels friendly to the
Leagne bosses. Tbis Eelling and trading of
players, as though they were so many cattle, is
all wrong, and the time has come when the
players must tako the bull by the horns and do
something for themselves."
Will Johnson is one of the best business men
in the West, and bis acquaintance among the
professional players is general. He socially is
friendly with all the League players.
A Rather Serlons Charge.
Philadelphia, September 22. After to
day's game at Gloucester, Manager Baraie. of
Baltimore, accused the Athletic officials of
passing people through a side gate, receiving
their money and making no return for it. The
Athletic people admit that 2 was received in
that way, but deny that they had any attention
to defraud.

FOUGHT FOR BLOOD.
Billy Bissell and Jack Jlyan Have a
Desperate Fistic Battle.
THE LAWEENCEV1LLE MAN WINS.
Abont Two Hundred Pittslmrgers Witness
the Sunday Horning fight.
J. L. SDLLIYAN'S BACKER IN TROOBLE.
A Well-Known Bicyclist Undertakes to Ride a long
Journey.
There was a desperate prize fight not far
from the city between Billy Bissell and
Jack Eyan, two Pittsburgers. Bissell
knocked Byan senseless. John L. Sulli
van's backer, "Wakely, knocked a giant's
teeth out and was arrested.
There was something like an old-time
prize fight several miles down the Panhandle
Bailroad early yesterday morning. The
principals were Billy Bissell, of Lawrence
ville, and Jack Byan, of the Sonthside.
They fought at catch-weight to a finish with
small gloves, Queensberry rules, for a purse
of $150. The ring, which was one of 16
feet, was formed in a shod, and fully 200
people witnessed tbe battle. The contest was a
desperate ose, and Ryan was knocked out in
the eighth round by a terrific blow on the
jugular.
The principals accompanied by their seconds
leftthe city about 8.30 Saturday night and
reached the battle ground about midnight.
About two hours later tho contest started
amid considerable excitement, Byan bad
scarcely a friend in tho ciowd, and a local
light pugilist volunteered to second him.
When tbe Drincipals entered tbe ring there
was a big contrast between them. Bissell
weighed about 160 younds and was young and
vigorous.
A FISTIC VETERAN-.
Ryan, who is something of a fistic veteran,
looked in poor condition, and only scaled 145
pounds. While he looked a little weary he
seemed confident, however, and when the
referee called time he was the first to rash
from his corner.
At tbe call ot time for the first round scarce
ly a word could be heard. Rjan seemed
auxions to get into tho middle of the ring and
Bissell was also eager to get to work. They
sparred around considerably and Ryan at once
gave proof that he knew how to use his bands.
Bissell became impatient and led off bis blow,
falling short. Ryan tried to get home, but was
also a little short They both went at it then
hammer and tongs and as a windup to the
round Bissell landed bis right heavily ou Ryan's
ear. Ryan went to his corner considerably
dazed.
The second ronnd was lively enough to de
light the spectators. Both men kept in the cen
ter of the ring and thumped away at each other
right and left. Bissell was much quicker and
stronger than Ryan and the latter
GOT THE LION'S SHAKE
of tbe punishment. However, both fighters
received strong doses, and they were soon cov
ered with blood. The round, which was of the
give-and-tako kind, wound up by Ryan receiv
ing another heavy blow on tho left ear which
knocked nim down.
Tbe third round was in many respects similar
to the second. Ryan was evidently losing
strength, but he stuck to bis man gamely. Bis
sell also looked somewhat tired. Tbeytoattered
away at each, however, like demons, and
science seemed to be discarded. Ryan began
to "keep out of the way" a little toward the
clo?e of the ronnd, and just before time was
caiiea ne lanacn a Hwinging diow on .uisseii s
neck and Bissell went down.
The fighters were now a sorry sight and were
getting weak. Bissell's left eye was closing
fast and blood was flowing copiously from his
nose and mouth. Ryan was even more battered
than Bissell as he bad a big gash on bis fore
head above bis left eye, and be was bleeding at
the nose profusely. His body was also a mass
of bruises, and altogether there was plenty of
evidence of the severity of the encounter. The
fourth round was therefore tame compared to
tbe previous ones, as each man sparred for
wind. What blows were delivered were not
very effective.
A TEET LIVELY BOUND.
The fifth round was another lively jre. The
contestants had gotten their second wind, and
tbey at once resorted to the hammer and tonga
process of punishment. Bissell's superior
strength here began to tell perceptibly, and ho
punished the little old fellow terribly. Ryan
responded, but with little elf ect, and was nearly
exhausted when time was called.
Ryan kept out of barm's way In the sixth
round, and only tried for "long blows." He
managed tbis very well, and recovered his wind
wonderfully during the round. He camo up
with renewed vigor in tbe seventh, and showed
so much fighting ability that at one time he
looked like a winner. During the round he
returned all Bissell's blows with good interest,
and when tbe round finished he was every bit
as good as nis big opuonenr.
Ryan started out well in the eighth and last
round. Ho struck out viciously, knocking
Bissell clean off his feet by a swinging right
hander Bissell was soon up, however, and
after a few more exchanges he landed a terrific
swinging blow on Ryan's jugular, knocking
him senseless. Tbis ended the battle, as Ryan
was unable to respond to tbe call of time. A
collection was made for him, aud about (20
were realized.
Ryan arrived in tbis country not long ago
from England, and has had a long experience
in pugilistic affairs. He was too old and too
light, however, for Bissell.
HE FOUND WAKELY.
A Giant Asks for Snlllvan's Backers and
Loses Three Teeth.
XSI'ECIAL TKXEPBAM TO TUB PISrATCrtl
New Yobk; September 22. Before the good
people of this town had finished their slumbers
tbis morning there was a violent commotion at
the northeast corner of Forty-second street and
Sixth avenue. A few minutes before 6 o'clock
a giant had passed in through the side entrance
to Jim Wakely's "art gallery." Somo mo
monts passed and then there was a sound of
quarreling voices, followed by violent noises
that much resembled tbe charge of a wild bull
against a brick wall. Immediately thereafter
the side door was again opened and the afore
sail giant tumbled out on tbe sidewalk in a
bloody and much disheveled condition. He
was followed by the redoubtable Wakely him
self. The prostrate giant picked himself up
and started at a rapid gait up Sixth avenue
vowing tbat be would have Wakely arrested.
Wakely and Bluett the giant were escorted to
the Yorkvllle police court by Roundsman
White.
Bluett made a sensation in court by fishing
tnree oioouy lccu uut ul uis jjuukbi. ituu de
claring that they had been firmly rooted in his
jaws before Wakely bad disturbed their found
ations. As the two men stood together Wakely
looked like a mere pigmy beside Bluett Wake
ly admitted tbat Bluett had been in bis saloon
and also tbat be had thrashed him. "He came
into the place this morning drunk," said
Wakely. "Ho swaggered around and said, -I
am looking for a man in hero to lick.' Some
body asked him whom ho was looking for and
he said, 'Wakelv.' I said. 'I'm rieht here, and
you get out Ho would not go, so I drove him
out."
He alleged that Bluett had given him plenty
of provocation. ,He asked for an opportunity
to produce witnesses, and Judge Murray held
him in J500 bail for examination. No questions
were asked about tbe violation of the excise
law in having the saloon open.

kln in his corner against tho ropes, and bend
ing bis opponent's back almost donble over tbe

SPECIAL TELEGHAM TO THE DISPATCH.l
Phillipsbueg, Center Counts', Sep
tember 22. Great excitement prevails in
this city to-day as a result of a terrible
tragedy enacted this morning. Several
years ago W. 8. Hopkins, a young car
penter of Rochester, N. T., came to this
city and became infatuated with Miss Maggie
Wighaman, a fair and beautiful yonng
lady, and after a short courtship they were
married. The union proved an unhappy
one in some respects and jealousies rose,
Hopkins blaming his yonng wife with being
nntrne to him.
Not long ago he had some trouble with
some of" the immediate family of his wife,
when he was arrested on a charge of assault
and was placed under bail. For some days
past Hopkins" has been away from this place,
stopping at Houtzdale and Osceola, two
towns within a few miles of here, but last
night came back and lnrked around town,
his wife, it appears, not knowing ot his
presence. Last night at a late hour it is
supposed he secreted himself in the cellar of
his late home, where his wife stayed. At 10
o'clock this morning he entered the honse,
went upstairs, and shot and instantly killed
Mrs. Wighaman, his mother-in-law. When
he came down to the kitchen he fired a shot,
almost instantly killing his wife, who was
at the time washing the breakfast dishes.
He then ran ont of the house on to the
street, informed several persons that he had
shot and killed his wife and mother-in-law.
AND THEN HIMSELF.
He went to A. H. All port's livery stable
and, raising the same revolver he had used
to kill his wife and mother-in-law above
his head, fired two shots, both striking and
glancing from his skull instead of entering
his brain, as was intended. One of the
glancing balls struck and entered tbe door,
which has been viewed by hundreds of
curious people to-day. The murderer was
taken into custody and now lies in a pre
carious condition from the wonnds made by
his own hands. He is very weak from loss
of blood. The physicians think he will
survive. The following letters were fonnd
upon him:
Houtzdale, Pa., September 21.
I have written many statements on what I
am going to do. Most of the people in-Fhilips-
burg say I have been hounded to get me out of
the way so Edward Hughes and dear Eddie
uoiancKS, tne cracker agent can nave their
own way. I want my body sent to Bert Hop
kins. 27 Stone street, Rochester, N. Y. I hope
we will both reach heaven. Good bye. all. I
am in Osceola now on my way. Whoever
comes in my way when I meet Maggie will go
down with her.
ALL PREMEDITATED.
Satdrdat, September 2L
To-night is my time. If everything is all
right Mind my words. I want my body sent
home just as I fall. I hate to do a crime like
this, but tbey havo hounded me around until I
am stirred to it
This letter was addressed to a newspaper,
with the request that it be published after
the death of the writer. Hopkins, who has
been away from town for a few days, was ar
rested Saturday for assault and battery on
his wife, committed a week ago. He was
tried and committed to jail in default of
bail. For some reason the constable failed
to take him to jail, but permitted him to
rnn at liberty.

Chicago, September 22. As soon as the

read a peculiar open letter. It was unanim
ously adopted as the utterance of the gather
ing. The letter says:
To Judge Longenecker, State's Attorney:
Dear Sin We respectfully recall your at
tention to tbe ease of Ernest Dunnivant, sen
tenced by Judge Anthony February 2, 1SS7, to
four years' imprisonment. Dunnivant, a poor
hut respectable paper carrier, became ac
quainted with the daughter ot a millionaire
living on Dearborn avenue, who, becoming
aware of the intimacy of tbe young couple and
bavlne more lofty ideas as to tbe future of his
daughter, with unlimited confidence in the
power of the almighty dollar, employed city
aetectives to nx some criminal cnarge upon nis
daughter's poor but honest admirer that would
send him to State's prison. This was accom
plished with the aid of a self-confessed
thief, who pleaded guilty to an alleged bur
glary and swore tbat Dunnivant was a partner
thereto. Though both were sentenced at the
same time, by the same judge and for the same
term of imprisonment, this agent ot the de
tectives was liberated after a two weeks visit
to the Bridewell, while the innocent victim is
yet in the State's prison. We respectfully in
sist, tbat inasmuch as it is publicly stated that
all the facts in tbis case are known to J. J.
West, ex-editor of the Times, James Bonfield,
ex-Inspector of Police, and H. H. Gross, at
torney, and as it is privately asserted tbat
every live newspaper man in town is familiar
with its details, we deem it your duty to bring
it to tbe scrutiny oftbe grand jury tbat justice
may be done, either by clearing tbe reputation
of the millionaire whose name must eventually
become public, or by punishing him and libera
ting his victim.
In conclusion the State's Attorney is
urged "to endeavor in this case to prove
that the law is more powerful than the
greatest millionaire."
