The Federal Grand Jury yesterday returned a new indictment against Thomas Davis, formerly indicted for committing an assault upon Mrs. Emma Ames on the high seas on O tober 17, 1903. Davis was tried s eral months ago in the United States Circuit Court, and, although the Gov- ernment presented a convincing case, the jury disagreed, some of the jurors not thinking that the case was strong enough on which to a verdict calling for the death penalty, the only penalty provided by the Federal statute for the offense charged. The new in- dictment merely adds a second count, charging an attemnt at the ecrime, which attempt is punishable with im- risonment in the penitentiary for thre vears and a fine of $3000. The trial has been set for next Monday. ® ————— We Do It AlL Engraving, Printing, Electrotyping, Bookbinding. e best work at reason- able prices. nborn, Vail & Co., 741 Market st. . ——— FUR STH DEMANDS PROSECUTION Insists That the Owners of the Steam- ship Siberia Have Violated the Contract Labor Law.
