message for the North and for the

this land. It is to hold up the
law, and to suy everywhere that
every man owes allegiance to it,
and that all law breakers must be

utter disappointment, sliockinir to
public opinion, provoking repealed
accusations that some of the jury
have been unfaithful to their
othee.
We are lead to conclude that the
jury undertook to try the case
when it was submitted, by their
own estimitc of the value of
statem -r.ts made by parties not
called :is witnesses. With strange
unanimity they dwelt upon what
they knew by reading and hearsay
oi certain incidents ol tne assass
ination prior to the trial, and
made these the basis of a i.ower-
lui persuasion for giving tiie ac
cused the uenelit ot doubt and
concluding their deliberations in
their favor.
It is clear that as affecting three
of the accused, I'olitz, calledi
and Monastens, the jury engaged
in iieitDcralion lour or live hours
and on repeated ballots stood six
guiiiy ami six not guuiy. Tins is
a clearly defined indication of the
conviction that the evidence was
sutlieieiit to justify the six jurors
w ho stood resolute and determined
for a verdict of guilty, making it
wel: nigh impossible to reach an
other conclusion than a mis trial.
Tlie three accused named above
were probably unwilling actors
designated by the leaders of the
conspiracy to execute the villain
ous part in which they had neither
personal motives nor interest.
Following this investigation it was
'piickly learned that the talesmen
had been approached in various
manners, the vile work even being
carried forward iu the court room
during the trial. One favorable
expression was that big money
might be made by going on the
jury and doing right.
Among the talesmen a number
of our citizens have nobly come
forward, furnishing sime" of the
missing links in the chain of cir
cumstantial evidence drawn around
th's organized band of jury bribers.
The grand jury knows that the
list of the talesmen was in the
office of O'Malley it Adams at 11
o'clock Sunday morning.Ffebruary
22, though the trial :fudge had
issued orders that ttyf list should
not be made puUifc', or given to
the counsel oiieither side until
Monday. It urnot shown by whoee
hands theclist was secured, but
enough, is secured to con firm the
secret and tlie powerful influence
of the so-called private detective
agency aud Counsel Adams to
handle the machinery of the court.
The evidence shows that the lists
of names were tampered with
when drawn from the jury and
before they readied the jury box
in the court.
biillicieut evidence was offered
by voluntary and reliable witnesses
to justifying the indictment of six
men as follows: Thos. McCrystol
and John Coonev. with D. V..
p' I'Malley, for attempting to bribe
taiesmen, ana Bernard Uliudi,
Chas. Granger and Ferneard Ar
mant for attempting by each to
brilie three different talesmen.
We are forced to the conclusion
that loininick O". Mai ley is charge
able w ith know ledge of and parti
cipation in most, if not all, of the
unlawful acts in connection with
that celebrated case. Without his
assiJious and corrupting influence
we believe the verdict would have
been radically different, and as a
natural consequence the tragic
occurrences of the 14th of March
last, never would have been re
corded.
The grand jury recites the pei-
nicious combination of mrv
bribers, the blood-curdlinsr crimes
of the Malia society, it being al
most iiiijiossible to discover the
perjietratora or secure witnesses.
I I i e olllccis of tl.e Mafia and many
of its members are now knowii.
Among them are men born in
New Orleans, ot Italian origin,
using their towers for the basest
pu Mioses, be it said te their
eternal disgrace.
The jury declares that a crisis is
reached, and it becomes the dutv
of the next congress to quickly
enact such vigorous laws that
complete protection shall be af
fonled. The report says: It is
show n in evidence that the gath
ering on Saturday, March 14, em-
iraceii several thousand of the
first, best and even the most law
ibidihg citizens of the city, Evi-
ictice is ueiore us irom omcial
sources, that eleven persona were
killed in the attack on the prison.
F.fght of them were beyond
ine.stioii American citizens. The
magnitude of the affair at the
prison makes it a difficult task to
lix the guilt upon any number of
tarticipants. In fact tbe act
eemed to involve the entire
eople of the parish and citv of
New Orleans. In view of these
m-idcratians a thorough examin-
ition of the subject has failed to
lisclose necessary facts to iustifv
this grand jury in presenting iu-
iiilments.

w Asiiisii ioN, May 5. Hon. C.
A. liolph, of l'ortlaud, Oregon,
brother of Senator Dolph, has
tiled his indorsements at the de
partment of justice to succeed
Circuit Judge Sawyer. This may
be considered a little early to take
such steps, but it is gossip here
that Judfc-e Sawyer has decided to
esigii as soon the president has
disposed of the work of appoint
ing the nine circuit judges pro
vided for at the last session to
relieve the supreme couit. It is
said the Oregon delegation has
decided to press Dolph energetic
ally; at least Mitchell and Her
mann will be active. Chief
Juetice Blake, of Montana, ia also
a candidate. He has not tiled .his
recommendations yet, but has had
some correspondence about the
matter with Attorney-General
Miller. He is getting ready to
present his claims. It is said he
has the Montana senators behind
him and that he w ill receive from
t'lem an energetic support. This
rather conflicts with the report
that L' nited States District Judge
Notes, of Montana, will be Dressed
for promotion. It is believed that
Nevada's strength will be concen
trated on United States District
Judge Hawley, but personally he
win take no nana in the matter.
So far Washington and Idaho have
not been hei rd from. It ia still
believed that ex-Kepreeentative
Morrow is reasonably "sure of ap
pointment as one of the nine new-
circuit judges the president will
appoint. Iu such an event it is
claimed that California will not
stand a very good show to furnish
a man to 8 cce.d Sawyer.
