State’s Attorney Convinces Foreman That He Was Too Hasty. —— CHICAGO, April 4—Undue haste in vot- |ing true bills for prominent Board of Trade firms yesterday gave rise to an in- | vestigation of the action of the Grand Jury to-day and caused the State’s Attor- ney to interfere with the return of the | indictments and delay final action on the charges. The true bills are said to have been voted despite the protest of Assist- ant State's Attorney Sprogle, who insist- ed that the testimony introduced did not censtitute a prima facie case. When the | affair came to the attention of State’s Attorney Deneen he at once summoned the foreman of the Grand Jury, and for two hours the men were in conference. At the afternoon session of the Grand Jury it was decided to defer the aciion of yesterday invoting indictments against the Board of Trade men and to allow the submission of new testimony. After the hearing of this evidence a vote of no bills was returned and the case was dis- missed. William 8. Warren, chairman of the market report committee of the Chicago | Board of Trade and fommerly president of the board, in a publifhed statement touching the Grand Jury hearing says: “A premature publication this morning | exposed & plot on the part of the bucket shops to retaliate on the Chicago Board ot Trade for refusing to give them its quotations by attempting to obtaln the indictment of certain board members on misleading evidence. Apparently when the Grand Jury came to look into the character of the charges they saw through the scheme snd refused to bring any indictmen Steam Yacht Czarina Launched.

QUESTION THE FIGURES SUBMITTED BY FORAKER Southern Pacific Engineers Say the Counsel for James R. Keene Exaggerated. OGDEN, Utah_ April 4—The Standard to-day published a statement based on interviews with the Southern Pacific en- gineers, in which it is clalmed that Sen- ator Foraker's figures, given by him be- fore the court at Nashville, Tenn., yes- terday, are based on much exaggerated accounts of the sinking of a few feet of track on the construction work across Great Salt Lake. The Southern Pacific engineers assert that they have encoun- tered no difficulties they had not antlet- pated and that were not easily overcome, and the great engineering project of span- ning Great Salt Lake will be accomplish- ed by July 4 and the cut-off opened to traffic before the end of the year. The estimated cost of the undertaking is $4,000000, and not $13,000,000 as stated by Senator Foraker. The cut-off will, It is said, reduce the distance between Og- den and San Francisco forty-six miles and eliminate 150 miles of the most dan- gerous and difficuit piece of mountain road on the Central Pacific.
