the examiner's attention to the publication
la a newspaper In this city this morning
of the letters, telegrams and cables which
have been the object of examination at
several hearings before you. These letters,
telegrams and cables were sot exhibited in
evidence because Mr. Alexander felt con
strained to plead privilege and confidence
because they were the private Communica
tions from members of a law firm In rela
tion to the private business of their clients.
Pending the ruling of the court on the
question of the admissibility ot those com
munications which you said you would
certify to the court and while. these letttirs,
telegrams arid cables were claimed to be
'ijrlvlleged.'.'they. wera furnished to a news
paper and published this morning. We un
derstand this publication to be a direct
contempt of. court, and that -the person
g-ullty ofaustng their publication is guilty
of a gross contempt. We ask you, there

CHICAGO, Dec. 22. The liverymen's as
sociation at a meeting this afternoon de
cided that unless a peaceable Settlement
of the drivers' strike was reached tomor
row they would open tor business with non
union employes and would appeal to the
courts "for an ' injunction to 'prevent the
strikers from Interfering In any manner
with the driving of carriages or hearses. '
Word of the injunction proposal reached
the strikers Just as a vote had been com
pleted aa to the submission of the Issues
In the controversy to an arbitration, and
the action of the employers was bitterly
criticized by the men. No announcement
of the result of the vote of the strikers
was made public, hut the general Impres
sion was that arbitration had been ac
cepted. At the snme time that the men were
Voting on the question of conciliation the
members . of the? Liverymen's association
decided to submit the whole difficulty to
arbitration, provided that the strikers took
the initiative In the matter and that , the
demand for a peaceable settlement should
come from the men. In anticipation of the
proposition being accepted by the men a
committee was appointed to receive any
overtures that the union, might be willing
tn mRkA. The union nffintfilfl were Immedi
ately notified cl the decision reached by
the employers and the-latter, it la said,
wi:i have a reply. ready tomorrow. morning.
First I'nloa Label' Fnheral.
The union men met todaV''ti 'consider
an arbitration plan to sctt? their Strike.
The plan grew out of a meeting of a Com
mittee of employers arid representatives of
the" union lest night. '
; While arbitration was being considered
today news-wail received of the first "union
labor funeral" wince the strike began. The
funeral was arranged by Undertaker G. M.
Marks- the- tody of the decedent being re
moved. in a "dead" wagon bearing -a plac
ard proclaiming the vehicle to be owned by
an undertaker paying the, union scale.' It
was also the first funeral In jrhlch a pro
cession of, carriages waa supplied to. carry
the- mourners. There were .six - jcarrlages,
labeled like the improvised; .jheaese.-1 . , y j-
The funeral of John J. Kelly waa held
under coyer of darkness on account of the
possibility of violence. The services had
been 'announced 'before the recall of pickets
last night After simple home services an
undertaker's wagon conveyed the remains
to a railroad depot, from which the body
was shipped to St. Paul; Minn. '
The body of Mrs.' Catherlria Mastereon,
mother of Rev. John Macterson, was borne
through the streets on a'harid truck, while
undertakers and liverymen and their
drivers 'argued ak. to whether' they ou'gt
to submit the contest to arbitration'. i
The coffin ' was carried ''alohg sidewalks
from the home to the chtifcti of the Holy
Family on an undertaker's truck, which was
used In substitution tor a hearse; Six pall
bearers walked bareheaded beside the flower-strewn
coffin, 'and following them came
a procession of mourners, i -
Fifty . carriages had been- aeked for, but
Bone . wba furnished and ovec .JOO people
wero prevented fa-en a.ttodlng the burial.,
foni 'of" the 'many dther" funeral" from
which; hearses were withheld' today took
place not' far from -that of Mrs. Masterson
and led to the charge that liverymen had
entered into a "pool" or combination to
prevent the use of hearses for bearing dead
to the grave yards. After' engaging a
hearse for a funeral Undertaker Q.. M.
Marks, who yesterday signed.' the union
scale, -was refused by a UVery wner the
use of the vehicle.' For. two hours -he
funeral was delayed,, while -the mourners
awaited a hearse. . When none could be
had a "dead" wagon was used. i--. -,..
To urova the "pool" story It was pointed
out that the liverymen who had hearses
yesterday protested at their meeting against
"Independent" , undertakers who favor hir
ing union drivers for- the hearses. . Members
admit that the "Undertakers' - association"
as a body Is not In favor of the- move of
a few- of their number to iriaka peace with
the union, but "favor standing by the
liverymen.",- :. :w
Electrical Workers Plead Onllty.
Five members' of the Electrical .Workers4
union who were recently Indicted' for par
ticipation in a plot to keep witnesses' out
of the state and prevent tbem from testify
ing pleaded guilty today before Judge Mc-
Ewen. The men were A. B.- Wilson, J, T.
Kingsbury, Charles L. White, John H. Ma
honey and William Cleff. - .
The case in connection with which the
men wero ' found guilty was that against
Harry Pelktia, an employe of the clerk , of
the criminal court, who la charged with
having; falsified the court records--to show
that cases agalast oner Joha Gallagher, in-
dieted for-assaulting -nonunion' men, had
been dismissed. . It was claimed that Pel
kus received $300 for his part of the work,
It was shown by Edward A. Richer, for
merly - treasurer of the union, that the
money had been appropriated for the pur,
pose of rewarding Pelkus for having fiial
fled the records. Pelkus will be tried later
and. Gallagher has fled from the city. It
is expected 'that Judge McEwen will pasp
sentence tomorrow.
Press feeders Are Indicted.
Two officials and three . other member
of Franklin union of pressfeeders were in
dicted by the grand jury this evening, the
speclflo charga, against them being riot. The
men indicted are Charlej Woerner, presl,
dent ot the union; John Shea, treasurer;
Frederick Kltchil, Joseph Mucher and
Charles Smith. . . .
It Is said the Indictments were found
on the affidavits made by men who suffered
from violence during the prese feeders'
strike. It was predicted this evening that
more Indictments of a 'similar character
would be voted tomorrow. Efforts on the
part of the Jury to secure similar evidence
against the officials of the street car' men's
union did not prove so successful. - It was
found difficult to secure any evidence tpnd
lr.g to show that officials of the union urgtd
tneir men to violence. . . ,

"Some year ago," says the city attorney,

son, Paul W..Horbach, now of New York,
foreclosed On the John A. Smiley estate, lo
cated ln-'the' north part.-of the clty - to
satisfy a mortgage for $15,000. Special taxes-
for. paving, etc, were then standing against
the property to the amount of about $14,-
000. In the appraisement-of .the :property
previous to buying It in.' the amount of the
taxes was deducted, thus establishing the
taxes aa valid lien against the property.
In accordance with the supreme court's de
cision, affirming the right of estoppal. . .
' 'ow, it appear that after having -done
this and lessened the appraised value of
lha property, by $14,0Op, a deal was made to
evade; the taxes.. Two ld judgments against

receipt for $17,000 from the Horbach peo
ple. 8ult was then brought to cancel th
taxes' under the plea that in Barrett'
case tho epocial taxes were not made
valid and 'binding because -they were not
deducted. Barrett, however, does not ap
pear tn court and th long and tangled
history of the case made U suspicious. '
Statement by Barrett.
'Barrett 'admitted that ha waa an old
frtend of Eugene J. Sullivan tf Omaha,
wHb had had charge ' of the- Horbach
affairs for a long time and wa guardian
for the elder Horbach while the latter
wag1' Insane. Barrett had never seen
Horbach except when th ' latter . paid
visit to his old hotne, but had signed
papers aenf to him, as a itiatter of accom-medat-kra;'-
had lived for twelve year
Oh irhll salary and' admit fed that he
never possessed a sum like $17,000. After
being placed In nominal possession of the
property he deeded It back to Sullivan,
also . Indorsing hack again the check that
the latter gave to him. He ha had no
accounting with Sullivan for years, gave
him the power of attorney and by his own
admissions simply acted a a stool pigeon.
"We shall attempt to show In court that
deception has been attempted And thaA-rhe
real title to the property never passed out
of Horbach's hands."
"Mr Goes la In no way connected In the
matter, except that he was the Horbach
attorney in the first foreclosure suit and
was aware of the. Barrett deal, H declined
to, give the Information we sought about
Barrett- holding that a an attorney ha
had no right to do so. Later, however, be
fore the court he gave the facta that en
abled us to locate Barrett"
