FILES NEW INDICTMENT AGAINST FORGER DILLARD Federal Grand Jury Tries to Insure Conviction by More Perfect Legal Instrument. Because its former indictment contained some flaws which caused it to be thrown out by Judge de Haven of the United Btates District Court the Federal Grand Jury returned yesterday a new indictment sgainst Dillard, the former clerk in the office of the Collector of Revenues, charged with uttering fraudulent Chinese certificates. Upon this new document he will be held to answer stand trial. The formér indictment, which was ex- tremely lengthy and prolix in its com- position, ‘contained no less than thirty- three counts in its charge against the alleged forger. . The indictment filed yesterday contains twenty-eight counts in its charge against Dillard, and the District Attorney thinks that it will be hard for the former con- fidential tlerk of Collector John Lynch to clear himself. e u'rvl\zvf:h;fonhl;:, J.,ph mnb:’,—'nn Internation- 500,000, to scauire Batent rients And wreratd wireless telegraph and telephone system, was incorporated here to-day.
