CIIIOAQO , Oct. 10. fSpocinl TcloRratn to
' Til B 11 F : K.I The News this afternoon mnUes
fionsatlonul dlsclosUrct rctfardinR the alleged
ofllcinl IrrcRularlllos of .ludgo Tuthilt , of the
criminal court , In connection with the I'les-
nc - haw bon.d robbery.
' Koarly-lwoyeari npo two Inrf3 ( buslnuss
houses of this city were burglarized In iiulclt
succession , and from exploded safes over
f"X3,00J worth of bonds were taken , In De
cember last , ten months after the robberies ,
nn advertisement appeared In ono of the city
papers offering a lot of bonds for sale. The
i inspector of pollco opcnod nogotiatlonsfand
the advertisement was traced to the men
running what they termed the "Columbia
Building uml Savings assocuitlon " In the
nrrcstfTtliut followed llonry Plesncr , who
IVOR the head and front of the Columbia
li'utldititf and Savings association . F ,
Shaw , Q. U. Taylor and Otis Corbln. of Uoclc
Island , Shaw's fnthor-la-law , were taken
in , The bonds wore recovered in
the safety deposit vaults , where they
Oind been left for sifo : keeping.
U'ho fraudulent character of the business
the men had carried on n bogus building
association and limuranco company came
out In the investigation. The full extent of
their tranxaction us never discovered , but
the fact did coma out that they had operated
extensively among the farmers of this state
and of Indiana and Iowa. The crime which
they were called upon to answer for , however -
over , teas that of having in their possession
the stolen bonds and trying to negotiate
thorn , Uho Mows discovers that Plesuer is
a free man ; that a few days after the trial
the verdict against him was set aside by the
court , and while the public supposed he was
nt Jollct ho has been freely walking the
streets.
States Attorney Longnecltor is not the
least Indignant at this travesty on justice.
"I insisted on a scntonco In accordance wi h
the verdict , " said he , "and tlio court is
wholly responsible for this Mnsn's Im
munity. I will say this , that
I believed then nnd believe now
that I'lo'lior was at the bottom of the bond
business and that ho got Shaw Into it. lie
i ought to bo In the penitentiary now. I don't ,
wuiit to bo understood us lellccting on , ludgo
Tuthill's action. "
"It Is a sliaino , " said Lieutenant Horace
Elliott , I'tlmt I'lesner escaped. The police
work up cases against criminals , and when
they get the criminals into ttio courts they
nro turned loose. Ilia evidence showed that
Plesner was the head of the concern , and
how It is that ho is walking the streets a fieo
, man in more than I can understand. It was
Judge Tutlull who freed Scully , Jordan and
Daly , the men who were twice convicted of
nn outrageous highway robbery , the victim
of which was Dr. Prank Uodgo. "
Xuthill was seen this evening , but declined
tq.mukouny statement regarding tne charges
ngdinit him.

THE LOCAL POLITICAL FIELD.
iNlntb. Wnrci Republicans Discuss the
Convention's Action ,
SOME OF THE DELEGATES SCORED
Meeting of Ynrtaitq Other Clubir-
Brief ykntclicB of the Oftiidi-
for the County Olllueo
Political
Ninth Ward llcjuiblloiins
There was considerable "roasting" done
it the Ninth ward republican club meeting
last night. The trouble arose over the lact
that the delegates from that ward trailed off
Charles J. Johnson , a candidate from 'tho
Ninth for 'justice of the peace , for Mike Leo.
The ne < used delegates were M. S. Lindsay ,
A , TJ. Wlggiuft nnd J. B. Borgcss.
Oharlcs . ! . Djurono made an eloquent
BDcccli denouncing the delegates to the re-
DUbllcnn county convention because thny
went back oa his old friend Johnson. Ho
believed that cents and dollars llgurnd
larccr than principle , as the delegates had
been individually instructed to vote for
Johnson for Justice.
Charllo Johnson was there. Ho spoke scv-
ural times nnd abused the delegation every
time ho spoke. "I wouldn't bohuvc some of
these fellows under oath , " ho remarked ,
"and I don't know where we could Unit a
worsoset. They ncteit like hoodiuin * . They
nro schemers nrnl tricksters. But don't you
forgot It , wo ain't all dt-ad yet. "
U. J. Burgess , ono of the accused ilelc-
gntcs , said that ho went Intotheeonventlon n
Lee man , and did all ho could to secure his
nomination. Ho considered that ho had
acted tnlrly In the matter and had no apolo *
ulos to make. He had asked Djurcno to vote
for Lee anil ho refused. Ha in turn refused
to vote for DJurono's candidate for Justice.
J. C. Christiansen thought that the action
of tlio delegation was a slop nt his national
ity , and it made him warm to bo thus ig
nored. Ho pronounced the fellows who did
him upas rascals and scoundrels , and de
clared openly that Johnson's friends would
put him through yot.
At this Junction William Klcrstcad , who is
the president of thu club , created peace nnd
harmony by n pleasant little speech , explain
ing the matter in dutuil. The meeting then
adjourned for ono week.
The
It was 0 o'clock before the meeting of the
German-American association was called to
order last night. There was n very small
attendance of members. S. C. Heebo pre
sided and Otto Kuntzu acted as secretary.
Mr. Kecua complained that thu members
of the ward comnuttpa did not perform their
duties , li. D. Sch'icht , a member of the
committee , resigned , but his icsignation was
not accepted , the election being made by ttio
central committee. Mr. Bruening proposed
that the committee bo given eight dajs
longer to repoit. Ho said ho was sorry that
the ofllcers of the central committee did
not perform their duties , l.ut that the
members ought to stand together nnd
the success of the Burgervcrcm would be
assured. Air. O. C. Kcebo complained that
ho had been charged with selling out. He
said ho was a democrat , but that he would
give his support only to a liberal man. The
Independent Burgervcrcin has { nothing
to do with the county elections , but the
membeis should work and see that only lib
eral men \vere elected. Ho said the repub
lican ticket had already been nominated.
The democratic tlcitet was to bo nominated
this week , and then it was the duty of this
club to consider who were the best and most
capable men. Whether German , Swede or
lush , lepublicau or democrat , and they alone
ought 'o bo suppoi ted. There was only one
way , ami that was to work in harmony.
It was decided to insist that thp ofllccrs of
thecentr.il committee attend to their duty ,
and to insist that the secretary send the
constitution and by-laws to the secretary of

evening in Mueller's hall , Eighteenth uud

thirty yean ago , nt a certain custom
house on the American border , stiya
the Now York Sun , ono of the locnl

warehouse. The man who made the
discovery covered the body with a tar-
patiliu and then blurted to broalc the
news to the widow. lie found her
seated on the var.niilu , and saluted her
and nsked her it Dan was homo. She
replied in the negative , and ho tat
down and talked about the weather and
other mutters for n quarter of an hour
before saying :
"Mrs. Philbrok. you and the collec

"O , yes , the best of friends. "
"And through her you could inlltienco
the collector1"
"I don't Know about Unit/ '
"But if thorn should be a vacancy
among the appraisers would you bo will-
iiitr to spnalr a good word for inoV"
"Why , yes ; I'm sure T would. "
"If , fnr instance Dan should resign ,
could I count on your Kind efforts ? "
"O. certainly. "
He returned" the warehouse , redis
covered the body , gnvo the alarm , uud
had it tent home. Three hours Inter
he culled to oiler his borviees as ,0110 of
the dead much , and ns ho took the sol-

'Poor Dan' Cut down in the prime ot
