EKNIGHTS OF THE SUN. ANOTHER ANTI-CATHOLIC OEDER. Last {all the New York Herald made a great com- ‘motion over the discovery of a secret organization ‘which, according to that varacious newspaper, had for its object the destruction of Roman Catholicism In this country and the election of Gen. Grant fora third term. For several days the subordinates of the journalistic cockfighter waxedicloguent and fm- aginative over the O. A. U. Frightfal pictures were drawn of the society’s work; the. opinion of eversbody eupponed 1o possess one was sought and printed, and nothing was left nndone which could in any way excite the public mind and promote a feeling antagonistic to the President. It remained for THE TiIBUNE lo})lm the true aimsand pori- tion of the order before the country. The work- ing-book and charter of the Illinois branch of the 2. A. U. were publiched, and disclosed so many 3iscrepancics and exnggerations in the alleged copy printed by the Lierald that Mr. Bennett felt called upon to drop the sensation while it was red-hot. 1t is rathier sad that that paper has not heard of the organization of another sccret society, with anti-Catholic proclivities, and of a decidedly more for: ble character than the 0. A. U.” The Knignt« of the Order of the Sun is a much finer dinx title than the Order of American Union, taking into consideration the fact that in the ititary appellatione are used, asplen- D. H. - & kensation has been lost. ¥ of the Order of the Sun was estab- vaca soume months 120 by a few prom- <tunts disgusted with the imperfect r commend for combating the advance o m. Their object wae to draft a con- stititicn which wouldattruct all sound Protestants, ntzi thas forni a £olid phalans agninst the Popeand hi~ euiasaries, After full consideration it was de- cided 10 form an_organization semi-military in its racter, which it was thought would possess 1 far above tho-e of ordinary secret societice. Tae project met with great favor in the State. znd a strong membership was soon enraliuil. The ritual bearsa close resemblance to thut of the 0. A. M., only the obligations azainst eupporting Roman Catholic office-seckers are a lit- tle stronger fu their language. After Nevada had been&retl}' thoroughly worked, a State Commander was dipatched to start the so- ciety there. The Protestants of the Pacific Slope were quite oager to take hold of the thing, and a strong membership was soon obtained. From there the State Commander worked east, meeting with fair sisccese in each place he visited. In Ilimole, Ar. N. C, Nason, s prominent Odd-Fellow, was en- listed as State Commander. That gentleman vis- fted Chicago last weck and at once commenced op- erations. Some twenty citizens were zot together ina down-town office, 1o or three nights ago, and Grand Body" was formed in no time. This ** GrandB ody " is composed of the commissioned officers, such s State-Generale, Majors, Colonels, Paymasters, etc.; the privates and non-commis- sioned officers belong **subordinate™ bodies. Judging from the character . of the entlemen who have received commissions for the énm\ Body of the State of Illinois, they will push the organization vigorously. They think to bring in the members of the Anicrican Protestant Asso- ciation, which haa been on the verge of dissolution for some time. Last night a subol ite body was formed, with 3 membership of over lhlrt{. It in expected that several others will be organized in a very short time, and that a total enrollment of 1,000 will be secured in Chicago. THE COUNTY RING. ITS DOINGS YESTERDAY. The recently-indicted individuals were around the County Building yesterday morning atan carly hour in full strength. The Commissioncrs had read the evidence, or anch portions of it asTus Trisuns had reproduced, and there were some things in it that they conld not understand. Car- roll could understand his cow transaction, bat, if that waa all there was againsthim, he could notsce why he had been indicted. Holden remembered distinctly that he had borrowed 2 pair of blankets from the Insame Asylum, bt in this he AW no gre]:t crime. McCraffrey had not forgotten what nse he had _made of the syxon given him by Kimberly, but he did mot see how it was that he was debarred from receiving presents, especially when they were given him 28 8 testimonial of his official honesty. Juhnson was wavering in his mind, and it was with the greatest difficulty that he could recall the occa- sions upon which he had received money from Peri- olat. or that be could even remember his grocery ac- counts with Foryth & Co. They were all, how- ever, just as eamcst in their Kmxcsmluns of inno- cence and in their curses of the Grand Jury as they ever had been, and, notwithstanding the reports (o the contrary, they #aid, each and all of them, that they would not squeal. If nnthln§ beyond what had been published was presented against them they felt secnre, but none of them were prepared to take many risks. They had a certain confidence in Periolat, but well knew that if _he squealed they would be the sufferers; but he conld not sgueal, how- ever, withont violating a solemn pledge exacted from him since his indictment. The unindicted members of the Board, and the usual Jobby of contractors, presentand pogpective, were also on hand, as well as KIMBERLY AND SWEETSER. The Commiesioners were particularly sore, or at least such of them as had been refected upon by the testimony of Kimberly. Messrs. Cleary and Malloy, for instance, profested that Kimberly bad lied when he said that Periolat had paid them money, etc., which is doubtless true, for thoee who know them could not be persuaded to belicve that they wouid for 8 moment congider any prop- oxitions from him, or in any way place themeelves under obligation to him. = Scveral of the con- tractors, 810, took umbrage at Kimberly's testi- mony, and said oll manner of things tending 0 break down his evidence. Multay and Thiel- man said that what Kimberly had testified about them was false, and that they had never given him a cent for any favors. They claim to have furnish- all supplies” in their line honestly, and to have never \‘Pemnndnd anything more than they were entitled to. THE INDICTED individuals who had ot previonely given bond, were also early on hand. Hugh H. Sweetser pra: sented the names of Solomon H. Burhaus and Andrew Dunning; John. J. Ruasell named Philip Schweinfurth (bread contracton), J. *W. Pinncy. and W. C. Stevenson; Joseph Harris introduce A, J. Snell, of gravel-rond notoricty. and V. F. Millizan; and poor Kimberly came forwerd to re- new his former bond, and to_offer new mames for the new indictment. The attempt to put him in Joil had been unsuccesful, and he was proud to hame s bondsmen Samuel E. Barrett, Edward Goodman, and Horatio W. May. All of the bunds- men were accepted without dispate. Late in the afternoon, there was considersble anxiety manifested in certain circles, coming of the fact that THE BONDSMEN OF PERIOLAT, 2s already indicated in these columne, were in- clined to withdraw. _Louis Multay had toid him Friday that he desired to be released, and to that end had asked him to appeur in court yesterday morning. He did not netice the reuest, however, for some reason or another, and in the afternoon Multay scught releasc in a legal way. —He notified the Clerk of the Criminal Court of his intention, and had the necessary papers drawn. His nest move was to ind Periolat and surrender him to the Sheriff. He found him after ashort search, but the latter begged off, and sent Multsy in search of some one to take his place on the bond. Ex-Commissioner Crawford joined him in the search, with the determination that if he conld not findany one elwe, rather than that Periolat should go to jail, he would sacrifice himeelf, By the time he reached the Court, however, Mr. Craw- ford had changed his mind, feeling that he had already sacrificed all the money he conld afford in the interest of the public good. The next move was to fiid Periolat und surrender him, but up to a Iate honr last evening no returns had been made at the jail. It is doubtfnl whether they were able to find him, as he realizes folly the straits to which he hias bevn reduced. While he was being scarched for by Multay, he was mot aware, per- haps, that ANOTHER OF HIS BONDSMEN, P. J. Sexton, was taking the initiatory steps to ive him up. . Mr. Sexton, it will be remembered, Sizged Periolat's originsl bond, but since then Periolat has made him believe that the indictment had been guashed. Yesterday Sexton becameaware of the fact that Periolat had lied to him in the ‘matter, and the Jast scen of him he was in scarch of his attorney for advice a8 to what course to pur- ene. He was afraid that Periolat would be con- victed, and, in view of that fact, did not sce what he had to guin by remaining in the country, hence his uneasiness. The withdrawzl of Multay and Sexton, which promises to ocenr to-morrow, will leave Edwin Walker and George White to'stem the current alone. The former of. these is not over-responsible, angu view of the gencral belief that Periolat will not_ stand trial, it would not be astonishing to see Periolat in great labor for.the next few days to keep out of jail. Aside from the eiffect of the Grand Jury work upon the county officials, ‘aircady detailed, the Insane Asylum and Poor-House are sufering for cCaflrey has supervision if ali reports be true. taken it upon himeclfto appolnt the Assistaat War, den to Klmbetly's place,—lie is a mere boy,—snd the effect was scen yesterdny in the complaint of several of the ‘paupers of their treatment, Kim- berly considers hin term of office practically at an end, and has yielded to McCaflrey's domineering. Tie ' will eend in his resignation of the office to-morrow, and it will, of course, be gladly received. He does this to save the ** Rinz" fa the Board the unpleasant duty of removing him, which could not be well done without preferring churges arainst him. Any charges that woul stand againet him, except **squealing,” wonld stand equally well against the ‘‘Ring,” and his resignation will no doubt eave a comparison of crimes and & great deal of ofiicial humiliation.

About noon Judge McAllister joined the conference, which lasted about 5 o'clock. The distinguished jurists _ then adjourned for the” dav. it is definitely understood that Judge Mc- Allister will deliver the opinion. Yesterdsy af- ternoon he took his de rture for Waukegan, where, within hearing distance of the sad sca waves or Glen Flora spring, he sat up the greater part of last night engaged in the prepara- tion of the document. To-morrow morning at 9 o'clock the Judges will convene for a further con- sultation, at which the finishing touches will be givento the opinion. City-Hell habitnes are divided in their opinions on the resull. Some say that the Court will render a judgment of onsteragainst Hoyne, and gt the same time afiirm that therc i¢ a vacancy in the office, which it will be the duty of tie City Council to fl] by the elcction of oncof their own number.

THE BAR ASSOCIATION. TREASURER'S REVORT. The Chicago Bar Association held & regulap montbly meeting in its rooms in the Farwell Hall Block yesterday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.

John H. S. Quick, the Treasurer, presented his report for the months of April and May. The ‘balance in the trcasury at the stated mecting of April 1 was 81,027.69; amount of ducs paid by members, $205; muking a fotal of sfi:z.as; bills_paid, §107.35; leaving a balance of hand of $1,155.34. * The report was placed on file. 1In answer to the call for Committee reporte, Mr. Black stated that several futile efforts had been made to get the Committce of which he wasa ‘member together, In conversation with a major- ity of the members, the opinion was expressed that it was incxpedient to obtain the enactment n},‘ 8 bill relating to the exccution of contracte i writing. The Committee was granted furthertime. THE VACATION. _Mr. Goudy announced that the Judges had de- cided to have their vacation between July and August, and had declined to include September in it. He eaid the Judges would excuse any lawyer during the lattermonth, who was necessarily en- gnflcd ixnllht mg‘rieuf'mnn. r.

Mr. Bond called attention to the delay which home attorneys ugcricnced in having their equity, cascs heard in the United States Courts, and thought a change desirable.

Mr. Jackson moved that the Secretary be in- structed to correspond with Chief Justice Waite, with a view to learning when he would come here, in order that the Board of Managers might arrange for his reception. The Judge's lagt visit here was in September. The motion was adopted. HIRAM M. CHASE. The President informed the mecting that some action on the death of Hiram M.

JUDGE DRUMMOND. The President called the attention of the mem- bers toa large, life-like portrait of Judge Drum- mond on the wall, and stated that it had been pre- sented to the Association by a number of gentle- men connected with it._ He paid a complimentary and trothful tribute to Judge Drammond's integrity and care in the exercise of his duties. Mr, Goodwin said it gave him great pleasure to Dear testimony to what was said of Judge Drum- mond, and in earnest terms alluded to the studions care which he exercised in the administration of justice. 1lc moved a vote of thanks to the pre- sentees of the portrait, and it was unanimously pussed. The Association then adjourned. THE CONDUIT. RECENT DISCOVERIES. In speaking of the work at the Fullerton avenue conduit, City Engincer Chesbrough told a reporter yesterday eome farther facts in regard o the re- cent discoverics that hie had made In relation there- to. Hesaid that the facts would have been made known sooner had he not been unable to attend to much work, his health being not what it should be. One of his assistants had visited the scene of ope- rations every day, but had found everything pro- grossing finely, the Inspectors attending to thelr Dbosiness, and the bricks being lald correctly, But itecemed that the masons had, in the absence of the city officers, done work carelessly, and acted- as they pleased, the Ins}-:cc!ou evidently neither caring nor seeing, even if they were present at all. He had found by cutting into the walls that the inner rows of bricks (the tunnel ie built of four thicknesses of brick) were in many places put ide in without mortar, and even on the inside surface Lricks had been misplaced and misfitted. The job Avas a poor one, and the fault luy with the sub-con- tractors. 2 In answer to a question, Mr. Chesbrough stated that the original contract had & provision that the work should not be relet, but Fitzsimons & Con- nell had sublet it to Pete Callaban, who was part- 1y to blame for the poor quality of ‘the work. By poor but rapid work Callahan could save moneyand mortar. 41 do not think," raid the intervicwed, *‘that Fitzsimone & Connell knew of anything wrong. 1do not mistrust them in the least, but they cer- tainly were not right in subletting the .contract. They fecl greatly pat ont about the occarrence.” He “then stated that a thorough esamination would be made and all defects remedied. Where the walls_had been imperfectly built, thc‘g would be torn down and rebailt. Fitzsimons Connell would lose money to be smre—abcut $3,000; bat the city would lose nothing, but mere- 1y beput back for a little time. The whole matter may be simmered down to this, that the original contractors, s they shonld not have done, snblet their contract to a wman who did bad work, and the Inspectors allowed it. The Inspectors were removed, and the sub-contractor obliged to quit. The work will be repaired and 311 things straightened, when it will progress as before, ~There has been considerable of 2 breeze about it. Py One who Luows told the writer yesterday that the Inspector Barclay was no man at all for the gl:u;e he held, and that he was given the situation oy the Board of Public Works “(who did not know him) on the order of Mr. Colvin. Mr. Chesbrough did not know him, but supposed him all right. _Of the otber Inepector the informant could say but little, but those two men were responsible for the whole business. THE FIRST REGIMENT. GENTILE'S PHOTOGRAPIL. One of the most elaborate photographs ever got- ten up in this country was unveiled last Wednes- day evening in the presence of a large and select company at Gentile’s gallery; cornér of Washing- ton and State strects. This mammoth pictare, which covers an arca of 72x4f incher, is a photo- graphic view of the First Regiment, I S. G., and represents the scene after the breaking of ranks at the last review on the Sonth Park. There are over 400 figures grouped in the most life-like postures. _In the centre foreground sits Gov. Bev- eridge, while near by are Gen. Sheridan, Col. M. V. Sheridan, Geu. Forsythe, Gen. Ducat, Prof. Swing, Chaplain of the Regiment, Adjt.-Gen. Dilger, Col. Davis, and the officers of the regi- ment. On either side and to the rear almost as far 28 the eye can reach are the men and non-commis- sioncd officers of the regiment, plctaresquely grouped; while stacks of arms und piles of drams, and the two regimental flags beautifully draped relicve _the ecene in a very artistic man- ner. Each figure is a scparate photograph, and po two_have the same posc. . These photo- graphs have been graduated in sizc €023 to thor- oughly meet the 1aws of perspective, and all have been so mounted as to produce & perfect hanmoni- ouns whole. The portraits in the background, though much reduced in sizc 83 compared with those immediately in front of the spectator, are excellent in tone, and are pronounced cupital like- nesses. So accurately has the mounting been done that no overlapping is diccernable. Allthe pleces fit with the accuracy and delicacy of the most costly specimens of mosaic. The frame, which is composed of bird's-eye maple, Japancae ash, and gilt, is an exquisite specimen of mechanical skill, and greatly adds to the intrinsic beauty of the icture. It was manufactured after special devigns y Mrs. L. J. Cadwell, the cashier of the gallery. On the occasion of the unveiling of the picture, the gallery was turned for the time into a perfect conservatory. Flowers and plants of the most ‘varied hues and most fragrant perfume were strewed around the reception room 1o the greatest profu- sion. DMlost of these were the gifts of members of the regiment to Mrs. Cadwell. ~Music, both vocal and instrumental, cnlivencd the scene, and when the hour of departare arrived, the guests made their adieus regretting that this world wasnot com- posed cutirely of pictures, flowers, and music. STRAW BAIL. AN ATTORNEY ARRESTED. Some days ago the incarceration of one McAr- thur in the County Jail was noted in these col- umns. ] Subscquently it was' stated that Homer Abbott and Thomas B. Reed appeared and offered themselves ns bondsmen, and that they were ar- rested upon the charge of perjury, and sent to mect their friend. They were recognized by the Clerk of the Court as straw-bailers, and, be- ing unable to disprove the charge, were T Whero they would b an . expénse i the _county. Yesterday a8 new feature was added tothe case by the appearance of Reed Defore_the Court in the capacity of a ** squealer.” He maintained that he had been led to make a false oath by one James L. Van Syckel, an attorney, and caused his arrest. Van Syckel isa practitioner of doubtfal repute around the Justice's Conrts, and if his knowledge of his_profcsslon I8 to be measnred by his éize it mnst be small. He was found in a beer #aloon, and as merry 28 could be. When Depuity-Sherift Bouteld lid hands upon iz D was not a little astonished, and when heclaimed nims prisoner he wilted {0 such an extent as to create & suspicion that the lightning had not made o mistake in striking him. When he reached the Coart his legal knowledge was very near exhausted, he having becn already engaged in reasoning with the officer. He was in the best of shape, however, to receive his deserts. He protested in person and by counsel that he was innocent. but_the weight of cvidence scemed sguinst him. He was allowed every opportanity to secure bail, butupto 8 o'clock last evening all effort, been in vain, as he had been unable to find any one ‘who had $2,500 worth of confidence in him. Several ap- plied, however, but the fact that they were known was against them.

Slagan D The Joint Committee on Streetsand All the three divisions is called for Monda aAt] é'g' ,f:.r to consider a reference, which is an ordinance sub- mgitted by Ald. Throop for discontinuing the clean- ing of sireets, slleys, and ditches, and that the duty of framing an ordinance with & view to econ- omy in that department be referred to a special committee of h?n from each division of the city. The Committes on Streets and Alleys for the Soath Division held a meeting yesterday after- noon, snd spent a good deal of time discussing the ordinance granting & franchise to a corporation known as the Chicago & Englewood Horse Rail- way Company. Mr. Vaughan, one of the fncor- porators, waa present, and argued with the Com- mittee. ' No action was taken, though the matter was favorably looked upon. Another meeting. will held next week, before which, advice will be taken, and the matter submitted to the Law De- partment for criticism and suggestions. ‘The Boerd of Public Works opened bids yester- day for the construction of the superstructure of the viaduct over the railway tracks on Milwaukee avenuc. The lowest bidder was Thomas Leighton, of Rochester, N. Y., at $72.000. The American Bridge Company followed closely at $72,894, and theirbid was much the lowest foF certain parts of the work, 8o that the contract may be divided be- tween the two lowest bidders, Before the award the matter will be pregented to the railway com- pany who are to bear most of the expense. The Judiciary Committce held a meeting yester- day afternoon in_the oftice of Ald. Thompson, Room 29 Reaper Block, to consider the propricty of allowing the Hartford Insurance Company, rep- resented by A. Moore, which now insures boilers. 10 {ssue, at a cost of $2each, certificates which will relieve ' the party insured from a visit from the regulsr City Steam Boiler Io- spector. The insurance company clalms that the 82 paid to the city on cach certificate would bea sonrce of revenue, and that moncy and time would be saved to the boller-owners who are now obliged to pay 35 for each inspection made by the CityTn- spector. While the Committec was consideringthe subject. Mr. Cunningham, a boiler expert of this city, gave his views on the methods of testing. _He snid_that the hydrostatic-pressure method used by the City Inspector wasinjurieus and unsatisfactory, and that the insurance company's method was the bet. After a good desl of discussion action was deferred to hear the other side. The Comunittee then considered a subject of too much importance fogive to the public. In regard to the power to allow the requested right to the insurance company o question arose on the Council's authority in the matter, a5 the duties of the boiler-inspector wag fixed by ordinance. BRIDEWELL PRISONERS. Mayor Hoyne and some of his advisers have dia- covered that the flprlennvr! now in the Bridewell working out their fines at 50 cents 2 day should be released, for the incorporationact provides: **The City Councll or Board of Trustces shall have power to provide, by ordinance, that every person so committed shall be required to work for the cor- poration at such labor as his or her strength will ermit, within and without such prison, iorl ouse, house of correction, or other places pri vided for the incarceration of such offenders, not excceding ten hours each working day, and for such work the person so employed to be allowed, exclusive of his or her board, §2 for each day's work on account ef snch fine and cost.” Follnfl‘infi the instructions and, as he says, be- cause he did not want to involve the city in an un- known number of suits for damagcs, Hoyne has been pardoning out siich pereons as have worked out their fines, allowing $2 per day. Since the 18th of May, 133 persons have been re- lensed, and more will probubly follow. Of this number about fonr-fifths have been relcased since Junel. Noneof themhave been pardoned in the unsual way, which was by the Mayor writing “¢pardoned™ (or words to that cffcct) on the ex- ecation which i8] held by the Comptroller. In these cascs the Comptroller has refused to give up the esecations, and the Mayor has addressed notes to Supt. Felton. Mr, Hayes says that he has kept no ofticial record of the pardone, and shall not en- ter them in the records till the Mayoralty question is decided. *‘Then, should Mr. Colvin be de- clared the Mayor, well—" and Mr. Hayes stopped and emiled audibly. He meantto convey the idea that if Thomas Hoyne be the Mayor, he (lIn{es) wiil not be Comptroller, and Comptroller Derick- son conld do os he saw fit. GOOD NEWS FROM THE EAST. Any news that points to a better turn in financial affairs is hailed with delight by city officers and employes. So with Mayor Hoyne, who rejoiced all day at the receipt of a letter from Ald.Pearson, a prominent member of the Finance Committee, who is now in New York talking with the bankers and capitalists. 1le wrote that he had seen nearly all holders of certificates in that city, and they had agreed not to protest. Hestated that the bankers were thoronghly posted on and inter- ested in Chicago finances and intended to stick to the city, and when the time came, to Jend any amount of money that mlfihl be needed to bridge over the difficnity. The Alderman will proceed to Boston In a few days and will use his powers of persuasionandstate the true condition and prospects of the city to the bankers of that place. Mr. Pear- con's efforts are warmly applauded by his fellow Coancilmen. Mayor Hoyne also received an enconraging letter from Mr. George S. Coe, President of the Ameri- can Exchange Nationsl Bank of New York. Mr. Coe cxpressed his confidence in the policy and capability of the present administration, and volun- teercd his aid to give such aid as he might be able to supply. As before stated, the Mayor is pleased, and thinks that there will be no ditliculty in get- ting holders of certificates to have them changed so as to agree with the resolution of the Council.

An adjonrned meeting of the property-owners on Halsted street was held in Irus Coy's office, at the Stock-Yards, yesterday afternoon. Ald. Mark Sheridan occupied the Chair and Mr. F. Hannon acted as Secretary. Mr. C. B. Holmes, Superintendent of the South Sde Railway, was present, and on being requested stated that he was authorized to state that the Company would fill, improve, and keep in repair that portion of the street occupied by the tracks, provided the people saw fit to grant them a right of way. The Chair atated that it would cost the city for their share of the improvements, which would be ‘mainly at street intersections, the sum of $15,000, and thoy would aid in the improvement as soon a8 the treasury would warrant the expenditure. Mr. S. A. Ricker remarked that the packers would contribute $10, 000 to the enterprise, and he thonght §5,000 might easily be gotten from other sources. On motion, a committee, conslstin C. B. Holmes, N. K.

Elkader (1a.) Journal. Some young ladics on retiring to their bed- room Sunday evening, opened the window and saw a wasp’s nest outside in the upper corner of the casing, and, not knowing what it was, thought to knock it off would be proper, and proceeded so to do. What was their surprise and horror, & moment later, to hear o dozen or more wasps buzzing around them. They were not in a condition to be “buzzed,” neither were they prepared to run down-stairs, where their arents had company, but no other choice was fen them, so down they rushed, followed by the pestiferous insects. The company arosc in {right as the two apparitions from the upper re- gion put in an appearance, and a general stam- pede took place in that parlor, and—well, the girls slept in the “spare *” room that night, and the company went home and dreamed of beau- ;i tifal bobgoblins. ———— Toughened Glass.

Wadsworth’s and Ward's Attorneys Object to Their Witnesses Being Sent Down, And After a Struggle Succeed in Carrying Their Point. It Is Not Settled Whose Uase Will Come Up for Trial Tuesday. Sad s 1t i to relate, the Government made a backdown yesterday from the position it had taken the day before in regard to the sentenc- ing of the whisky-men. While the latter arc fully aware that the day of doom must come some time or another, they had some very decided complaints to make yesterday morning after reading Tar TRIBOUNE article and receiv- ing, as a supplemental dose, notifications through their attorneys, that the District Attorney would expect some of them to be around Tuesday, and some Wednesday, to hear the opinion of the Court as to their deserts. There was [ndignation in eyery breast, and the cause of it was simple. They had very great objections to being singled out and sentenced before any of their brethren, and the idea of Jake Rehim and a dozen others escaping for the present, and perhaps altogether, was too much for them when it came to be fully realized. There was - ANOTIER AND GRAVER CAUSE FOR DEMURRING. Some of the second batch are witnesses {n the ‘Wadsworth and Ward cases for the defense. Now, the idea of sending them up and closing their mouths, while Juke and the rest had un- limited opportunities for occupying the stand, struck them and their attorneys as being wholly unjust, and their indignation “would seem to be inagreat part of the righteous sort. Yet it may be said that the Governmentis prosccuting and not engaged in defending the whisky-men. If they did not relish the idea of being sen- could bave walked into tenced at once !h‘t?' court Tuesday or Wednesday and asked for a gosv.poncmcnt of scntence. This they ad o perfect right to do. It was done in~ the McKee case and in others, and _ there is . scarcely a possibility that Judge Blodgett would have turned a deaf ear. Or, cven if they were sentenced and con- ducted to Joliet, thmolfld be brought to Chi- cago on a writ of habeas us, and, as the crime for which they would be sent down is not a felony, their testimony could be accepted. Nelther the District Attorney and his able as- sistants nor the distillers themsclves saw this. ‘The former do not scen to have worried them- selyes to seck out any defense for their action, and the latter were too much excited to ponder over anything but the disgrace of learning a trade at the Penitentiary or serving out a base and ignoble cxistence in'the County Jail. And yet, despite. all this violent displeasure on the part of the distillers, they cracked jokes with one another, and with ‘an audience largely composed of reporters as to the probable “dis- fosmon they would make of themsclves at olict, and what particular branch of industry each man would pursue. While the merry joke went round, however, their wrath was being nursed to keep it warm, and after some_consid- erable discussion it was determined to deputize somebody to wait on the Government attorneys and speak the corporate mind of the batch. . STORRS WAS SELECTED to interview Judge Bangs and his legal brethren, and as Storr’s i Wadsworth’s counsel, there was considerable propriety in the decision. He, too, was Indignant that some of his witnesscs were to be virtually intimidated, as he called it, by the ax being held over their ircads, and he 1ost no time in visitiug the Government build- ing and saying, In pretty plain terms, just what "he” thought ‘of such pro- ceedings on the part of the Government. The conference was warm and long. \r. Storrs urged the injustice of the scheme, and Judge Bangs told a story toillustratethe folly of delay- ing till some indcfinite time what could just as well be done Tuesday or Wednesday. The peo- gle wanted somebody sentenced.” There had ecn enough dilly-dallying, and the Government, to business. Delays were no longer in order. And then Mr. Storrs went at it again, in even more vigorous style. In short, the conference resulted in apartial back-down on the part of the aforesaid Govern- ment attorneys, who told Mr. Storrs that they would sec hirn fater. _The hour of 3 o'clock i the afternoon was setfor % ANOTHER CONFERENCE, at which time Judge Bangs would give an answer either_one way or another. In,the in- terim the conferences were renewed on the out- side. The favorite lunch places were in re- sorted to, and the injustice of the whole busi- ness discussed amidst copious potations of sour- mash. At 2 o'dock Mr. Storrs was true to his engagement at the Govtroment building. The District-Attorney had just finished an claborate Qissertation on Herbert Spencer and the au- thenticity of the Scriptures to his brother at- torneys, and had [;ot. to the words ‘‘quod erat demonstrandum ** when Storrs, pufling and blowing, entered the inner sunctuary. The topic of conversation was suddenly changed. The party got down to business. The whole ground was gone over with this exception, that tie Gov- ernment _representatives simply made one de- fense,—that this thing had” been delayed long enough already. Mr. Storrs grew eloquent. meant to get down as he commented on what he considered the outrageous injustice of the proposed plan of shipping those who were of no use to the Gov- emment, but of considerable use to him and ing is now being carried on briskly.

Personal Mention of a Number of Chia cago’s Principal Loan-Agents, A. LIPMAN. One of the best known loan-offices in this city is that of Mr. A. Lipman, at the corner of Mon- roe and Clark streets. It is centrally located in the buslest part of the business district, and enjoys an almost unequaled popularity among all who wish to realize ready moncy on all sorty of collaterals. Mr. Lipman has long been in business in Chicago, and is well known as an en. terprising, upright, and leading citizen. Hig means are very large, and the loans which he g able to negouate are almost without limit. Mg is fair and generous, and uniformly courteous to all who may have business with him. Hig stock of fine watches, jewelry, and diamonds {s scarcely equaled by any of ihe houses wholly devoted to the jewelry trade, and his prices arg always exceptionally low. There is no better lace in the city for transactions which fall within his line. PHILLIP LICHTENSTADT'S #Security Loan Office,” at the northwest copr- ner of West Bnndolxph and Jefferson streets, i3 justly entitled to a front rank among institn- tions of the kind. Mr. Lichtenstadt personally is an honor to _the fraternity of pawnbrokers, being a man of the strictest honor and highest business principles. Every one who visits his Bluc is “certamn to be courteously treated and onestly dealt with. His store is one of the finest in the city, being elegantly - fitted up and provided with mammoth burglar and fire-proof safes for the sccurity of the valuables intrusted to their keeping. Mr. Lichtenstadt’s stock em- braces iminense lines of watches, fine jewelry, clothing, musical instrumeunts, fircarms, an other merchandise connccted with the trade, in almost endless variety, all of which he sells at. incredibly low prices. He loans money in any amount and at the most favorable terms. MR. A, GOLD3MID, who follows this business at No. 90 East Made ison street, is one of Chicago’s oldest and most reliable citizens. Hehas been established in this trade since 1865, and has builtup a large business by his enterprise and honorable busi- ness course. Pledges of all sorts are received. He also buys old gold und silver, ores and buli fon, diamonds, pearls, cte. His stock of jewelry is fine and extensive. An auction sale of this stock will be held Tuesday next, when it will be sold cheap. MR. HENRY S. TIASS, whose place of business is at 120 Glark street, is known both in connection with the business and as a gentleman whose word and social qualitics his clients. In short, the distillers triumphed, and the Government took the beck-track. The result of this second conference was that Mr. Storrs received assurances that such witnesses as he wished to use should not be sentenced till after he had done with them. Those distillers ‘who cannot be of any possible use to either side will be sent down. It remains to be scen just who they are. Of course the news of the re- spite wasreccived with a good deal of suppressed Jjoy, and each man in turn ordered the .flmu all around. TUESDAT. A TRIBUNE reporter saw Judge Bangs yester- day afternoon, and, besides learning the above facts, was told that the witnesses in the Wads- worth and Ward cases would be expected to be on hand Tucsday morning. If no sentences were pronounced on such of the whisky men as cannot be used, the Government would open the day with the'trial of somebody. Whether it would be Wadsworth or not he could not tell. He remarked that it might be Hildreth, whose attorneys had been around during the morning and arranged -to have their illnstrious client present Tuesday morning to be tried, if he did not plead guilty. And as to the latter condition Judge Bangs could only surmise. He really did not know whether Hildreth wanted to be tried or not, but of onc thing le was absolutely certaiu, and that was that” Hildreth had not squealed on anybody up to date. It was current yesterday, howerver, that he intend- ed to squeal on somebody,—nomatter if the vic- tim was his grandmother or a snow-bird. Even the revenue men distrust the eloquent yet un- grammatical Alderinan, and openly say he would squeal on anybody if there was the least pros- peet of saving himsclf.
