“ nt BUG IN ~TOILERS EARS. "Big Bil” Carries His Mayoralty \ Campaign Into the Working- man’s Camp and Lulls Unions with Songs of Hie Greatness. HAS A-TALL LIEUTENANT. Bam Parks, a Big Labor Leader, Is Delegated by the “Greatest Chief Ever” to Dispense Deveryesque Information Among His Fellows. plerced into the gioom of the poor man’s home. Sam Parks, former representative of the Housesmiths and Bridgemen’s| of Unton in the United Board of Butiding ngaged by Devery to sentiment among the unfon tollers. Parks is a character quite as quaint as the former Chief of Police. He eently returned ¢rom Hot Springs, Va.. where he had been recuperating. <Al- though constantly in great physica] pain, Parks carries a cheerful air, and (Ms tall figure and lean, hungry jaws command attention. Assemblyman ‘James McKinley" But- ‘er turned the card which made Parks @ Devery henchman. Butler, whose right name is Dick, who unfortunately tangled a reference to a dead President with the memory of a statesman from Maine, and Parks are close friends, Both are structural ‘ronworkers grad- uated via the walking delegate oppor- tunity. For the last week Parks has been making his headquarters in East Fifty- fourth street, across from Brevoort Hall. A chair’ placed upon the eldewalk @erves the purpose of a pump. Here- @bouts the idle carpenters and team- sters gather and learn of the greatness ot Devery, his limitless generosity and his friendship for the working ,classes. Butler frequently visits the east side imitation of a pump, and then awes the out-of-work laborers by whipping up his horse and driving rapidly down the treet toward the Ninth. “The ‘Big Fellow’ has got them all," declared the Assemblyman to an Even- ing World reporter to-day. ery man, woman and child will vote for him, There will soon be pumps all over the city.” “It's the workingman’s chance," Parks. ‘Ten carpenters, four teamsters and five fdiers nodded their heads. “It's spread- ing like the ftch. The east side and the west side will go down together for Devery. There will be a lightning bug 4m every poor man's home.” Here But- Jer paused, and after shaking hands all around and twice with his friend Parks he jumped into his buggy and rattled way just like “Big Bi" always did when he’ ruled the police. ‘ FUGITIVE CASHIER SEEN NEAR HOME.

Secret Service Unearths Peonage System and Ten Indictments Are Expected To-Day. ‘WASHINGTON, May 27—The Secret Service has unearthed a system under which negroes in Alabama are held in Glavery and treated as convicts. The Federel Grand Jury at Montgomery 1s expected to retum indictments against ‘ten prominent “slave holders’ to-day. They will be charged with the al- most forgotten crime of peonage, the ‘penalty for which ‘s a fine of from $1,000) to @,000 and imprisonment from one to five years or both. Robert M. Franklin 4s already under indictment on tho charge of keeping a negro in vervitude for @ year. + The eystem was called to the attention of the Department of Justice a month ago, and Ohlef Wilkie sent Capt Dickey to Montgomery to investigate. His reports indicate collusion between magistrates and plantation owners who wanted cheap help. ‘The plan is ror a negro to be brought before the Magistrute on charges on which he is heavily fined. Some white man offers to pay his fine and save him from jail if he will agree to work tor eae until his wages reach the amount the fine ‘The negro practically selis bineeey into slavery. e8, it is NOONAN GETS PLACE CLAIMED BY DEVERY.
