" , Peoria, 111., special: Because of the complications resulting from the re turn of forgery indictments by the wholesale against Newton C. Dough erty, the Peoria National bank, of which he was president, has been closed. It was admitted that a disastrous ran would be inevitable, and the only recourse was to liquidate at once. A loan of $100,000, made by the Peoria clearing-house, was tied up in such a way that it could not be accepted. Among the withdrawals from the bank many were by banks in neigh* boring towns. The Peoria National was -capitalized at |2OO,Oa0O. A representative of the comptroller is expected from Chicago before noon. With a rapidity that astonished and shocked the community disclosure followed disclosure in the Dougherty embezzlement scandal. The grand jury continued its investigation, and at adjournment Friday had found a total of eighty-six indictments against the former school superintendent. Indictments Pile Up. The inquisitors will continue their investigation and it is believed will return from 300 to 500 indictments, all based upon evidence considered by State's Attorney Robert Scholes as closely approaching the legal dead line of conclusiveness. Mr. Dougherty is still at large, though under strict sur veillance. His bail bonds given when thirteen indictments were returned amount to $12,700, but he can obtain ten times that sum in sureties at any time. The Indicted man, according to O. J. Bailey, member of the school board who was placed temporarily at the head of the schools, has arranged to offset shortages with $200,000 worth of gilt-edged securities. Every report from the grand jury room suggests betrayal of trust of a startling nature. These stories are strengthened by statements made by business men, former employes of banks and other individuals, who have had an inkling of the scandal for weeks and months. Among the state ments is one from Erwin J. Schnebly, until recently discount and exchange clerk at the Peoria National Bank. Bank Clerk Tells Story. About seven years ago I first took charge of the 'Individual* books at the Peoria National Bank, and shortly af ter I began to notice the queer method Mr. Dougherty had of handling the funds of the Peoria school board," said Mr. Schnebly. After I had been working in this de partment I became suspicious and thought I would look up the indorse ments on the drafts. Upon examina tion I found thdt as well as being is sued to his own order, he had used them in his private business.' "It was Mr. Dougherty's custom, as I understand it, to indorse school t>oard checks payable to local firms with their names, which looked to me like simple forgery. He would also sign the names, as I recall of outside firms, under the apparently forged signature. After finding out, as I b lieved, that these drafts, made paya ble to Mr. Dougherty and purchased with school board checks drawn to the order of outside firms were used In his private business enterprises in the West, I commenced to keep a rec ord of them, and the last time that National Bank Examiner Cook went over the bank accounts I laid the mat ter before him. Notifies the Authorities. "That was about five months ago. Mr. Cook advised me to take the mat ter up with the highest state authori ties, as he said the affair was beyond his jurisdiction. Following this advice, I went to Springfield and conferred with Attorney General Stead. He ad vised me to take it up with the state's attorney, Mr. Scholes." Apparently reliable storieg of what Is transpiring before the grand jury Indicate that the indictments already returned represent an alleged defal cation of only $9,000, and that items on which true bills are based range from $10 to $300. Probably larger amounts, concerning which there is al ready grave suspicion, will be looked into. The character of the evidence be ing submitted to the inquisitors is hinted at by Dooley Brothers, ..local coal merchants. It is declared they swore they never had Bold coal to the Editor Gets a Consulate. Columbus, Ohio, dispatch: Senator Dick is in receipt of a letter from J. A.

Chicago, 111., special: Peaceful pick eting is as impossible as gentlemanly vulgarity or lawful lynching, according to an opinion handed down by Justice Smith in the appellate "court. The case which called for the de- cision is that of Franklin union, No. 4, three of whose members were fined $100 each and senteced to thirty days' Imprisonment by Judge Holdom for contempt of court nearly two years ago. At the same time Judge Holdom fined the union itself, which was an incorporated body, $1,000, and this de cision is also affirmed by the appellate court. "It is Idle to talk of picketing for lawful persuasive purpose?' said Judge Smith, "Men do not form picket lines for the purpose of lawful persuasion and of conversation. "Courts should be practical. When they form an opinion from evidence it must be a practical one. They have no opportunity, no license, for star gazing or for indulging in poetic fancy. In Imagination and in theory a peace ful picket line may be possible, but in fact, a picket line is never peaceful." CRANBERRIES SUFFER BLIGHT Thia Fruit will Be Scarce and High Fall and Winter.

Moscow cable: A pitched battle between crowds of strikers and Cos sacks took place Oct. 8.--The troops fired three volleys at the strikers and the latter replied) with revolvers' and stones. It is impossible to estimate the number of casualties/ for as soon as the mob was dispersed the streets were cordoned and the dead and" wounded removed and the gates closed. It is known that the number of victims is large. After the fighting was over, men, women and children were dragged in to the prefect's court yard, the gates to which were closed. Thereupon be gan what is known as giving a lesson to "intellectuals." Scores were taken to a long stable. Along the sides were drawn up two lines of picked troops, mostly Cossacks. The victims were made to run the gauntlet. There were fifty men on each side, who brutally struck them with whips and the butt ends of rifles. The victims of this ferocious • bru tality are forced to run the gantlet until they dTop fainting or dead. They are then picked up and removed to prison, the infirmary or mortuary. Such brutality it is impossible to par allel in any civilized couptry. The unfortunate creatures are taken from the street to this peculiar Russian form of execution without the possi bility of offering any defense_or hear ing what accusation is made against them. Cossacks Slain by Bombs? It is stated that the bomb thrown at the game market killed twelve Cos sack patrols. It is impossible to con firm the report, but it is certain that a number of riderless Cossack horses returned to the barracks after the col lision with the bomb.

Washington dispatch: "I think the sensational stories printed in many newspapers recently to the effect that there will be a great coal strike next spring are unwarranted," said John Mitchell, president of the United Mine- workers of America, who came here to see President Roosevelt. "As far as I can judge, after having been in the an thracite coal field for some time, everything will work out harmoniously in the end. • "I can see no reason N why there should be a general strike next spring. I have not seen the railroad presidents who are also presidents of the com panies, and I do not expect to hear from them for some time, but I do ex pect that in time there will be a re adjustment along the lines on which we are now working." P Mr. Mitchell said, In response to a suggestion that large supplies of coal were now being stored away in antici pation of a strike, that he did not take any stock in that story. "This is the time of year," said he, "when coal is always stored in large quantities." Mr. Mitchell says the response to his efforts to Increase the strength of his organization has far exceeded his expectations. The coal situation was not discussed with the president, he said.

The convict was called in and In* dignantly asked why he had not used this evidence in getting a new trial. "I'll tell you, captain. In my time I was acquitted three or four times when I was guilty, so when I was con victed of something I never did I just thought I'd even things tip by taking my medicine without kicking.
