TOM SLOAN IS INDICTED
Former United States Oommiisiener Ac
cused by Federal Grand Jurj.
CHARGE IS FOR FRAUDULENT CLAIMS
arr AAiommm, Which Pnta End to
So-Called Beef Trust Inveatl.
cation In Omaha
Jnat Sow.
Former United States Commissioner
Thomas L. Bloan of Tender was Indicted
by tha federal grand Jury, aa Implied Fri
day by the district attorney's office In re
fusing; either to deny or confirm the re
port of the indictment, which found Its way
to The H;e office. The Jury made Its
return Buturday marring, completing its
work.
This Is the Jury before which the in
vestigation of the Beef trust has been con
ducted. The testimony taken wtll be com
piled and transmitted to Chicago for uso
there.
Bloan was Indicted on the charge of
presenting fraudulent and fictitious claims
for services rendered as I'nlted States
commlslsoner during the quarter ending
September 30, 1002. The total amount of the
claim rendered by CommiHHloner Sloan
for the quarter's services was $329.60. How
evr, of this amount but $18.. H) were found
by Kxamlner Finch to be fraudulent, and
It Is upon this specific latter amount
that the Indictment is brought. There are
eight counts in the Indictment, which cov
ers fifteen or twenty typewritten pages, ex
clusive of copies of the bills and affidavits
supporting the claims and upon which pay
ntont was made.
Too fraudulent practices are alleged In
the Indictment to have grown out of scores
of witness fees cases, in hearings In liquor
case held before Sloan as commissioner
at Tender and elsewhere on the Omaha
and Winnebago Indian rcwrvatlons.
Mr. Sloan appeared before lHairli t Clerk
Hoyt Saturday afternoon and gave bond
in $1,000 before the United States district
"ourt.
r, Bloan Is not disposed to say any
thing about his Indictment at this time
until he has had ample time to look over It
carefully. He maintains, however, that
the Indictment was brought about through
spltework on the part of personal enemies.
Thirty-three Indictments
The grand Jury which convenced May 3
and adjourned sine die at noon Saturday,
has returned during its sittings thirty-three
Indictments. These have largely been for
minor postoffice cases, additional indict
ments against cattle men for Illegal fenc
ing of public lands, one or two counter
feiting cases; two strike cases for In
farctions of the federal injunction of the
summer of 1904; the Indictment against
former United States Commissioner Thomas
L. Sloan for rendering fraudulent claims for
services rendered as such commissioner,
one for cutting timber on government
lands, and two for violation of the inter
state commerce laws in reference to ship
ping game out of the state.
The principal Interest which has sur
rounded the sitting of the grand Jury has
been the Investigation of the Beef trust
cases to ascertain if there had been any
violations of the anti-trust or Interstate
commerce laws. The investigation of these
cases began May 12, and have continued
almost uninterruptedly since. There huve
been 1S1 witnesses examined In these cases
and the entire transcript of the testimony
will comprise between 600 and "00 pages.
This transcript is to be forwarded when
completed, which will take about ten days
yet, to Chicago for the Information of
United States District Attorney Morrison,
who has charge of the Beef trust investi
gations there
Prior to its adjournment Saturday noon,
the grand Jury adopted a series of reso
lutions of thanks to the court and court
officers for courtesies extended und in at
testation of the efficiency of the district
attorney and his assistants.

AFTER WORK AND NOT TIE-UP
John Graat Says He Wants Paving",
bat Is .ot Seeking; More
Litigation.
Paving Contractor Grant, who, with other
contractors, has been suspected of a desire
to involve paving laws and specifications
In litigation because they were not suited,
was asked if he expected to try for any
of the numerous paving Jobs to be done
this year.
yes, sir, I expect to go after some of
the work," was the reply.
To friends Grant disclaimed any inten
tion of endeavoring again to tie up the
paving situation. He has asked the city
engineer for an Interpretation of sidewalk
specifications and is expected to bid for
the cement construction, wiilcb he bad for
several jceajs, .
ALGOES DESERTED BY DUNN
Blackmailers Appear in Court Without
Lawyer Who Championed Their Cause.
JUDGE DAY WILL APPOINT COUNSEL
Man and Woman Plead Jot Gollty to
Charge of Blackmailing;
and Return to
Cells.
Even I. J. Dunn ujs concluded that he
had hold of a bad proposition In the Algoe
cases, and has quit. This early In the
game he has got enough. He Old not ap
pear with them when they were arraigned
in Judge Lay's court Saturday morning.
They stood up before the court without
counsel and pleaded not guilty to the
seven counts in the complaint against them
for blackmail committed against Edward
Kosewater.
la reply to the tjucslions of the court
the man and the woman both suid they
had no attorney and no money to employ
one.
After a. moment's consideration Judge
Day said: "I will not appoint counsel for
you now, but will take until Monday, prob
ably, to consider the matter. lull will
then be notified as to the attorney I will
name to look after your Interests."
During the arraignment Mrs. Algoe
seemed to be on the point of breaking
down. There was an uncertain quiver
about the mouth and her eyes looked as If
ready to brim over, but she managed to
restrain herself and went quietly away
with the deputy sheriff.
Dunn tins Little to Say.
Asked why he dropped the blackmailers,
whom he so ardently had championed and
In whose behalf he gave out so many ghost
stories of what he proposed to do and how
he was going to show up certain people,
Dunn, who somehow appears in a meeker
mood than for years, said:
"Oh, I merely dropped them; that's all
there Is to It. I found my clients had too
many friends In the Bee building."
The fact that he did so so soon after the
Algoe woman was quoted in the Daily
News as saying that had It not been for
Dunn they never would have gone this far
with their plot. Is a matter of considerable
comment on the streets.
PRICE AND DIGGS IN JAIL
Colored Men Who Obtain Money
Vnder False Pretenses Draw
Twenty Iys.
After several days of postponement the
case of J. Trice and J. Digs, the . two
colored individuals who were arrested a
week ago on a charge of obtaining money
nndi.. r.i.. i.rtenss. was dlapus.-u ! by
Judge iirk oalui4a, uiuruiii, Xhcjr. i-
celved a sentence of twenty days In the
county Jail. These are the two men who
were circulating the petition alleged to
come from the South Omaha and Omaha
Colored club, setting forth that the club
would give a band concert and a picnic
June 28 and asking for monetary assist
ance from business men. It was proven
that the petition was not drawn up by the
colored club and that the men were op
erating fraudulently. Attorney Fred Smith,
the colored lawyer, defended them. Trice
and Dlggs seemed well pleased that they
got off with so light a sentence.
CITY ASSESSMENT INCREASES
Returns Show Nearly Million and
Half More, but Some May
Be Lopped Off.
County Assessor Reed has now received
complete returns from his deputy assessors
In the city of Omaha. The returns show
an increase of $1,4S0,&40 over the real estate
assessment for 19)4. The figures for this
year are $09,,225, while for 194 they were
$U8.145,58(.
Mr. Reed is of the opinion there will be
some reduction from this total, for the rea-,
son that, under Instructions from the Btate
board, he has placed on the list properties
like the Young Men's Christian association,
Crelghton law school and the parsonages
of the city. It Is expected these proper
ties will make an effort to be made e
empt when the equalization board goes Into
session.
The deputy county assessors have, it is
understood, kept the valuations on good
business property at a pretty stiff figure;
at least they have not reduced It at all
from last year. The city assessment fig
ures, made under direction of Tax Commis
sioner Fleming, readied the total of $71,
100,175. It Is believed this Increase over
the county figures Just compiled is mostly
scattered over outside property that is not
considered as valuable now as It used to be.
until Wednesday, to which time the petit
Jury has been given a recess.
The first cases to be heard will be on the
district court docket, beginning with tho
land-fencing cases. The Krause case conies
first and the remainder of the week will
be consumed In Its hearing. A lnrge num
ber of witnesses have been called In the
cases, of which there are fourteen all told.
The court does not expect to get through
with the fencing cases before the middle
of June, If then. Following the disposition
of these cases the regular criminal trial
doc,ket of the federal court will be taken up.
ANDERSON DENIES CHARGE
South Omaha Tacklua" House Employe
Tleads .Not Guilty of
Assault,
George Anderson, employed in one of the
South Omaha packing houses, was ar
raigned before Judge Munger in the United
States district court Saturday morning for
violation of the Injunction order of July 24,
1901. which prohibited strikers from inter
fering with or assaulting strike breakers.
He plebded not guilty. It appears that An
derson, who was a striker during the pack
ing house strike last summer, returned to
work after the strike was declared off, and
an ugly feeling has existed between the
old strikers who wore re-employed and the
strike breakers who held onto their Jobs.
Anderson was charged with assaulting one
of these strike breakers May 7. This was
deemed a violation of the Injunction order,
and hence Anderson's arrest by the Fnlted
Slates officers and his subsequent Indict
ment. Xbe fdrai court! it Ukea nistii

It an ordeal which all
