Baker, former county prowcutor, are among the more prominent of the men in dicted. All the men. Democrats. Repub licans and Progressives, are named in a single Indictment, which contains forty-eight counts. The main cljarg? is to commit felonies by violation of the primary laws and the registration laws by bribery and blackmail. The indictment charges certain pri mary registration and election officials with conspiracy to permit persons to register falsely and vote falsely in the primary and general elections. An other count charges persons with re peating. Other counts allege that cer tain primary and election hoards per mitted the destruction of ballots for the purpose of substituting other bal lots therefor.

Both were released on personal bonds of $5,000 each. PARDON IS ASKED FOR HELEN BOYLE [Continued from First Page] attorneys in the case or the father of th« boy. The protest was to the effect that Mr. Lininger did not think pardon should be granted and that he feared Mrs. Boyle might go Into vaudeville or pose for the "movies." W. C. Jacob, of Mulvlhll & Jacob, counsel for the woman, indignantly denied that she would do anything of the kind and declared that he felt sure from con ventions with her that she would not. Questions were asked by mem bers of the board whether the money had not been recovered except for a small amount, to which the attorney replied that when arrested she had all but a small part of the SIO,OOO paid by Whltla as ransom in her stocking. Lieutenant-Governor McClain also asked if the State had not paid $15,000 reward. The argument in behalf of Mrs. Boyle was that she had fallen into bad company and married when but twenty: that a criminal record for five years had been unjustlv given her, together with aliases which she had never borne: that the sentence was drastic because of the aroused state of public opinion; that the woman had stood silent in the trial "and took her medicine" and not brought her family into it; that she had offered no de fense; that she had suffered enough in six years and desired to begin life anew under her parents' care. It was pclnted out that the sentence was already enough to effect reformation and that her example would be good. The point was also made that Mrs. Boyle had been twice In the hospital, although no health certificate was pre sented. and that no petitions had been attempted in her behalf. The board will announce a decision to-day. as there is a long list of cases to be heard. FALL OF LEMBERG IS NOW EXPECTED [Continued from First Page] rlca, via London. June 22.

STATE MILITIA GUARDS DOOR TO GOVERNOR [Continued from First Page] the soldiers to "shoot" accompanying their retort with a desultory bomb ardment of the troops with missiles. Two officers and a private were slightly hurt. No shots were fired, the soldiers advancing with fixed bayonets. No civilians were injured. Soldiers Taken to Home. Th» appearance of the crowd fol lowed several street corner gatherings at the center of the city. A few score started for the Slaton estate, but the number Increased as the march of four miles continued. Governor Slaton was surrounded by a few friends p.nd who had been deputized by Three battalions of militiathad been mob ilized at the armory. Just before mid night orders came to Major Carton to move his battalion to the Governor's home and the soldiers were hurried away in automobiles. While the crowd outside shouted, the Governor conversed with friends and took steps to protect Frank at the Georgia prison farm at Milledge ville. The sheriff at the place was directed over long distance telephone to keep in touch with the Governor in the event of any signs of crowds gathering there. After midnight, reports were re ceived of crowds coming from nearby towns and a second battalion of in fantry and the Governor's horse guard were called out. A cordon of troops was thrown around the estate and outposts were stationed to report any movement of crowds in the surround ing territory. None was seen. Case Still Discussed. Officials of the state and city in sisted that last night's demonstration probably had ended the possibility of any menace to the Governor by the people most bitterly opposed to the commutation of Frank's sentence. A state of preparedness was main tained, however, both by the police and the militia. The soldiers station ed .at Governor Slaton's suburban home attracted attention from pass ersby to-day but time hung heavily on i their hands for there appeared no further evidence of the gathering of a crowd in the vicinity. , The Frank case still was discussed In the streets to-day but the groups were those ordinarily seen on the busier street corners. The calm of to day was In striking contrast to the tension of yesterday and It apparently was welcomed by the majority of At lanta residents. The local newspapers gave very little space to the case to day. PICTURES SELLING CHEAP The Hague, June 23.—The sale of pictures at a great sacrifice continues in Holland, often at auction.

WITNESSES CAN BE MADE TO TESTIFY [Continued from First Pace.] several of the residents, will have no effect on the hearing* City Solicitor D. S. Seitz said to-day. The rule is re turnable within ton days and the soli citor will answer within that time- B. F. Nead, of Nead and Nead, attorneys for the petitioners, didn't appear to day, however, as he declared his clients do not recognise the commis sion. The only witnesses heard to-day were Mr. and Mrs. James Dinger, 1332 North Front, Oliver T. Dandls, a wit ness who testified before, and John Yingst. Attorney John C. Nlssley attended also and his expression of opinion led the board of viewers through Paul G. Smith, the president, to explain In unmistakable language that the board was doing its best to got the facts and resented any imputations that might be cast to the contrary. Mr. and Mrs. Dinger think their property is worth $2,800 although the former admitted his inability to recol lect any recent sales In the vicinity Mr. Dinger declared, however, that he could get no witnesses to attend. Ca«'t Get Witnesses. "For some reason or other," added Senator John E. Fox, attorney for Dinger, "witnesses don't want to testify." "Well, the board wishes all the help it can obtain on this problem and if we're not to get the assistance of the witnesses who are acquainted with the situation, how are we to get at the facts?" asked President Paul G. Smith of the board. "The board would like to help all it can, but It must be in formed." "Anyway the people won't come and you can't get 'em here. They seem to be afraid,' said Dinger. "Why should they be afraid to tell the truth?" asked Karl Steward. "The people should look to the view ers as the medium by which they will get a square deal, not the medium through which they might be cheated. If you have witnesses in mind and they won't come voluntarily why there's a way to make them come. You can get the board to subpoena them." "Um-um," suddenly smiled Mr. Dinger, "well, then there's Gus Wild man and Mr. Morrett. "If you say so we'll get our sub poenas for them!" "All, right, s'pose you do," agreed Mr. Dinger. Seitu "Calls" Nissley. "Has the board and the city solicitor ever paused to think why the people are afraid to come," asked Attorney J. C. Nissley. "That Is the second fling of the sort you've taken at this board Mr. Nlss ley," quickly returned Mr. Seltz, "and I wish to say that it is surely unwar ranted. The first time you apologized. What, would you say, Mr. Nlssley?" Mr. Nlssley just smiled and shook his head. Then President Smith declared that the board was appointed by the court to sit and that it was bound to do so, that it meant to consider the facts fairly and impartially and that this it is trying to do by hearing all the testi mony on the subject that It can ob tain. "Naturally," concluded Mr. Smith pointedly, "the .board think* any imputations are unwarranted and uncalled for." Property Held Conditionally. In response to an inquiry of Oliver T. I .andis City Solicitor Seltz explained that the title to all the properties of the west side of Front street were held conditionally, that Is that the ground lying beween low water mark and average high water mark belonged to the public insofar as the fishing and boating privileges were concerned. This was the reason Mr. Seltz pointed out that the city got the quit claims from the property owners when the interceptor was put through the sec tion. "Do you mean that I can't build a boat wharf on my water frontage un less I should give other people the same chance to use the water there?" asked Mr. Landls. "That Is the law. You could have landing places, but you could not maintain a wharf or landing to the exclusion of the public," answered Mr. Seitz. "Why there're lots of wharves up there now," said Mr. Landis. "And every one of them is there in violation of the law. If the State 1 wished to do so It could have every one of them removed." As To Assessment. Mr. Landls also ventured a sug gestion about the possibility of as sessors keeping down property values on the west side of fVont street for years with the "Hardscrabble" con demnation question In view. An assessor he said once told him that "he wasn't allowed to raise the assess ment." "If any assessor told you that," said Mr. Seitz, "he committed a deliberate act of perjury because he Is sworn to tlx the values which are proper and just to the best of his knowledge and belief." John Ylngst's suggestion as to bringing In witnesses closed the ses sion. He declared that he had tried again and again to get competent men but he couldn't. "They won't come, they say,' said Mr. Yingst. "We'll subpoena them If you say and make them come," suggested Mr. Steward. "Yes'n if you make 'em come," bluntly returned Mr. Yingst, "they'll go against you!" 1.1 SITAMA VICTIM'S LETTER Queenstown, June 23.—Watersoaked and partly illegible, the unfinished and unsigned letter-diary of a girl pas senger on the Lusitania was picked up a few days ago near the scene of the disaster, and is awaiting a claimant here.
