No bill was found against Lieutenant Commander. Mentz, as he has effected a settlement with the United States Treas- ury. It is reported that others suspected of complicity in the smuggling escaped indictments on t same ground. It is said here that if District Attorney Pettingill . refuses to prosecute those against whom .indictments have been found the Jndge will appoint a substi- tute for Pettingill. Robert O.

Although Senor Todd is a Re- the party machine protested against his nomination and demanded that he .withdraw. Governor Hunt, however, | appointed him to“the post and he will as- | sume his duties on Monday. The recent prosecution for fraud and the consequent removals from office have been a great blow ‘to the Republican machine. When the present investigations at Mayaguez are completed sifmilar investigations will be made at other cities, and it is expect- ed that frauds equal to those at Maya- { guez will be disclosed. The Grand Jury failed to find bills against Rear Admiral Stirling (who held the rank of captain and was commandant | of ‘the naval station in San Juan last year) and C. B. Howard.

Crabbe and Glles were arraigned at § o’clock this afternoon; Butler was ar- raigned this morning. All pleaded not guilty and each w held under $1000 bonds.

MAYAGUEZ, Porto Rico, April 18.— Mateo Fajardo, the Maycr of Mayaguez, who was arrested yesterday, charged with municipal frauds, was released to- day on bail. He started immediately for San Juan. His bond was reduced from $30,000 to $17,000. There are three charges of embezzlement against him for . the amounts of $8000, $700 and $43.

Attorney General Orow Con- fident of Obtaining Convictions. JEFFERSON CITY, Mo., April 18—The Cole County Grand Jury to-night returned feur indictments, three presumably | against State Senators, for alleged accept- ance of bribes in connection with the | alum bill legislation. Strict secrecy is maintained, and definite information as to the indictments cannot be obtained. | But by deduction it is belleved that one | indictment is against a St. Louis Senator, two against Senators living outside of St Louis and the fourth against some oue living in Jefferson City. This makes sev- en indictments so far issued by the Grand Jury. | The witnesses before the Grand Jury io- day were Senator Marshall of Scott Coun- vi Hugh J. Koenig, paying teller of a | St. Louis bank, where Senators are sup- | posed to have deposited large sums of | the Senate, and John E. Price of Olean. 4fter the indictments were returned the Grand Jury adjourned to April 27 to per- | mit_Circuit Judge Hazell, who convened | the body, to hold court in Morgan County, Attorney General Crow said _to-night that he felt confident the indictments | would stick, as they were issued of strong evidence. | _ Circuit Attorney Folk has given Sheriff | Dickman _instructions to exert every ef- fort to locate Senator Farris and the | other Senators wanted by the Grand Jury.

TRACING BIG GREENBACEKS. | Four More One-Thousand Dollar Bills Interest Officials. ST. LOUIS, April 18.—Trace of four more $1000 bills was obtained in the evi- dence presented to-day. It is said that three of these bills were used in connec- tion with the alum legislation in the Sen- ate and the fourth in influencing textbook legislation in the House. This Informa- tion will be transmitted to Attorney Gen- eral Crow at Jefferson City and the in- dictments will be found there. Among the witnesses to-day was Rev. Crayton Brooks, pastor of the Christian Church at Jefferson City, who h‘:an the boodle crusade by declaring from ghe pul- | pit that bribery was rampant in the Mis- souri Legislature. Rev. Mr. Brooks fur- ther astounded his audience py declaring that he knew a man to whom a $1000 bill had been paid for legislative Influence. Right on the heels of this' came the charges of Speaker Whitcotton on the floor of the House that money had been used to defeat the textbogk bill. The Grand Jury investigation simultaneously in Jefferson City and St. Louis resulted. While Lieutenant Governor John A. Lee i€ believed to.be in Chicago, nothing more was learned to-day as to his exact where- abouts. Both Mrs. Lee, his wife, and Robert Lee, his brother, declare that Governor Lee is away simply for a needed rest and that after he has sufficiently recuperated EXPERT OPTICIAN. ‘@ BEWARE Of Impostors Who Use the Name George Mayerle and Claim to Have Mayerle's Glasses and German Eyewater.

DENTIST PARR REFUSES TO SUPPORT CHILDREN New Warrant Issued and Officer Sent to Arrest Him at Horn- ‘brook. Willlam H. Parr. a dentist at Horn- brook, Siskiyou County, was arrested some weeks ago on complaint of his wife, Mrs. Myra Parr, on the charge of failure to provide for his three children. When he appeared before Police Judge Fritz he promised to contribute $65 per month for the support of thg children and also to pay the rent of the house where his wife and children live. On that promise the case was dismissed. Attorney J. S. Meyer represented Mrs. Parr, and he has sent several telegrams to Parr asking why he was not carrying | out his promise, as he had not sent any money. He received a reply yesterday | morning telling him that Parr would do | as he pleased, and he at once called with | Mrs. Parr at the Hall of Justice and she | swore to another complaint charging Parr with failure to provide. Chief Wittman wired to the authorities | at Hornbrook to arrest Parr, and Detec- tive Freel left yesterday afternoon to bring him to this city. The complaint was sworn to before Judge Fritz, who will deal severely with Parr unless he can satisfactorily explain his conduct, which is practically contempt of court. RPN L e e AR THREATENS TO XILL HIS WIFE AND SON Jacob Shoemmel Placed Under Arrest With Loaded Revolver in Pocket. Jacob Shoemmel, a carpenter at 411 Jackson street, was arrested Friday night in front of his wife’s residence, 130 Fair- mount street, by Policeman O'Connell and on being searched a loaded revolver was found in his pocket. Shoemmel was book- ed on a charge of carrying a concealed weapon. The case was called in Police Judge Mogan's court yesterday, and it was stated that Shoemmel and his wife had been living apart for the last five weeks. He had been threatening to kill his wife and son Willard, and Friday evening he met Willard and told him that he was going to buy a revolver to kill him and his mother that night. Mrs. Shoemmel notified Policeman O’Connell, who watch- ed Mrs. Shoemmel's house and, seeing Shoemmel approaching it, placed him un- der arrest. The Judge instructed Mrs. Shoemmel, who was in court, to swear out a war- rant for her husband's arrest on the charge of threats against life, and contin- ued the other case till to-morrow. Shoem- mel was booked on the charge of threats against life. e Laboring Men Meet. lmportant reductions during the week. a _special inducement we will offer several styles of I’\RIbIAN HAND-MADE SETS, as well as some éour Ferry Cafe, 16 Market Street, Changes hands Monday, April 20.

A gang of counterfeiters was confound- ed last Friday by United States Secret Service Agents George W. Hazen, Thomas B. Foster and Harry Moffitt, when they arrested Christo Patrikiuopoulou, alias Chris Johnson, James Tsoucas and George Rose, all Greeks, on a charge of having conspired to make counterfeit money. Some time ago the agents learned tnat the prisoners had rented a house at %8 Thirty-third avenue from Mrs. Jurgensen, and left it at the end of three weeks with- out giving her notice. When she went to clean up the house she found bits of plas- ter of paris and burms on the woodwork that had evidently been made with a gas- oline blow furnace. She reported the | facts to the secret service men and the Greeks were arrested. On Christo’'s per- son were found two blank steel dies. Rose is a partner in a barber ship at 779 Folsom street. Tsoucas worked on the railroad at Elko as a laborer. Rose made a confession to the effect that the three and one other, now at large, went into the business of making counterfeit mon.y, but did not succeed, and were unable to find an engraver who would engrave the steel dies for them.
