GRAND JURY . VOTES SILLS
Indictment! Returned ia Connection with
Chicago Teamster' Striko.
jSHEVS CHARGES COME TO NAUGHT
Statement that He Was Offered SlO.noo
to Call Strike Aaalast Sears,
HMkick A Co. Not
Substantiated.
CHICAOO, Jun t Indictments con
nected with the teamsters' strike have been
voted by the grand Jury and will be re
turned In Judge Barnes' court tomorrow.
The names of the men Indicted could not be
ascertained this afternoon.
It was reported, however, that bills would
not be vbted In connection with the charge
made by President elhea of the Teamsters'
union, that he was offered $10,000 to call a
strike against Sears, Roebuck A Co. It
was found that the statutes of limitations
barred any Indictments and the evidence
given was largely of a hearsay character.
It was rumored that some Indictments
would be based on the charges of con
spiracy to Injure the business of a number
of large concerns, and It was also said that
some Indictment would be found for per
jury. There was nothing definite, however,
la any of these statements. ,
Thome Before Grail Jury.
Robert J. Thome, general manager for
Montgomery Ward St Co.. was before the
grand Jury this afternoon and while denying
absolutely all knowledge of the $10,000, said
to have been offered to Shea and other
labor leaders, declared that he did not even
know Shea at the time the alleged offer of
$10,000 was made. He said that he first met
Shea in April, 1906, and before that time
had never seen nor spoken to him. This
evidence Is in direct opposition to that of
fered by Shea and Albert Young, former
president of the Teamsters' union. The
Jurors expressed themselves as anxious to
hear from John C. Drlscoll, former secre
tary of the Coal Team Owners' association,
who was declared by Shea and Young to
have been present at the time of the offer
of the alleged bribe. Drlscoll, however,
could not be found In the city, although
deputy sheriffs have searched for him for
the greater part of two days.
Teamsters' Joint Council Meets.
The members of the Teamsters' Joint Coun
cil will tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock In
form Mayor Dunne of their final decision
regarding the proposition of the Chicago
Team Owners' association to arbitrate the
Question of deliveries to the boycotted
nouses, it was proposed today that this
matter be left to a committee of seven
representing the teamsters and a like num
ber acting for the Team Owners' associa
tion. This was declined by the teamsters
and they said they would consider the mat
ter, promising to make a final decision by
tomorrow afternoon.
Referred to Track Drivers.
The demands of the members of the
Team Owners' association for arbitration
of whether or not deliveries shall be made
to the boycotted houses has been referred
to the members of the Truck Drivers'
union. At a meeting of the Teamsters'
Joint council tonight It was decided that
the members o! this union, which Is largely
employed by the members of the Team
Owners' association should decide the mat
ter for themselves, the officials "of the
teamsters' union declining the Issue.
The labor leaders had promised during
the day that they would Inform Mayor
Dunne at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon of
their decision regarding the proposition to
arbitrate. At that hour tomorrow they
will Inform htm that the matter has been
passed over to the truck drivers. No meet
ing of this union will be held before next
Tuesday, and the demand of the Team
Owners' association for arbitration will re
main unanswered until that time.
The teamsters employed by the Parma
lee Transfer company, which operates the
omnibus lines between the depots and the
principal hotels? and does the greater part
of the baggage transfer business of the
city, have by a referendum vote decided
not to strike. They had made a demand
for an increase of pay, but it was refused
and the old wage scale offered. The vote
was 257 against a strike and twenty In fa
vor cx it.
Riot Ins; In Lumber District.
Rioting broke out afresh today In the
lumber district when a wagon belonging to
Rlttenhouse Embree company was at
tacked by a crowd of 100 persons at Thirty
second street and Center avenue. The mob
threw stones and pieces of coal at the
nonunion teamster. Two policemen who
were guarding the wagon were hit by the
missiles and slightly Injured. The police
were obliged to fire several shots into the
air in order to keep the crowd at bay.
Upon the arrival of additional police the
crowd quickly scattered. No arrests were
made.
President Shea of the teamsters, supple
mented his bribery charges today by de
claring that an attempt at bribery was
mrt.de by some of the, big packers during
the progress of the stock yards strike.

NEW YORK, June I Disputed claim
of victory by the conflicting faotlons In
the Equitable Life Assurance society, and
n apparent readjustment of interests,
marked the meetings of the director ot
the society held today for the purpose ot
passing on the report of the committee of
seven, of which II. C. Frick. Is the chair
man.
The only positive results of the meeting,
of which official announcement was made,
were the rejection of the report of the
Frick committee by a large majority, the
resignation of Mr. Frick. Mr. Bliss and
Mr. Harrlman from the board ot directors
and the passage of the resolutions em
bodying the following statement given out
by the director after the final adjournment:
The board after full discussion and after
replies on their own behalf to the commit
tee by President Alexander, Vice President
Hyde and Vice President Tarbell on motion
of Mr. Schlff adopted the following resolu
tions:
1. That a Chairman of the board be cre
ated with plenary powers over all depart
ments ana anairs ot tne society.
2. That a nominating committee consist
ing of D. O. Mills, John A. Stewart, A. J.
Cassatt, T. Jefferson Cool! rise. August Bel
mont, J. B. Forgan and Robert T. Lincoln
be requested to report at a meeting of the
board to be called on Wednesday next, a
candidate for chairman.
3. That at that meeting of the board the
executive committee be reorganized and
that appropriate amendments to the by
laws should be prepared for submission to
that meeting for the purpose of carrying
uui mese resolutions.
4 That Mr. James Haten Hyde be re
quested, within three months, to divest
nimseii of the control of the stock of the
society on such terms and conditions as
shall be satisfactory to him and the board.
Several Protracted Conference.
Of the full board of fifty directors, thirty-
seven were present. The meeting today
was called at 1 o'clock, prior to which hour
there were protracted conferences in the
office occupied by the Frick committee.
Among those who conferred with Mr. Hyde
were Senator Depew, Samuel Vntermyer,
George Gould, A. W. Krech, W. C. Gulli
ver, Wlnslow S. Pierce, H. C. Haarstlck,
John J. McCook, Bradlsh Johnson, D. H.
Moffatt. H. R. Wlnthrop, William H. Mo-
Intyre and C. B. Alexander. '
It was declared by interests friendly to
Mr. Hyde that strong efforts would be
made at the meeting to defeat the report
of the Frick committeo and withhold It
from publication, and that President Alex
ander and his friends had Joined forces
with Mr. Hyde In supporting this course.
The directors remained in session for sev
eral hours, the time being taken up with
statements by President Alexander and
Vice President Hyde, both of whom op-
jpsed the adoption of the Frick commit
tee rejrort.
After the final adjournment late in the
afternoon, It was learned that the question
of the adoption of the Frick report had
not come before the board. Mr. Frick,
perceiving that he would unquestionably
be outvoted on a resolution to adopt the
report, made no comment, and after tender
ing his resignation left the room. It is
understood that Mr. Bliss and Mr. Harrl
man, both of whom tendered their resigna
tions, followed him Immediately. The
Frick report, it has been ascertained,
recommended the removal of President
Alexander, Vice President Hyde, and Sec
ond Vice President Tarbell. i
Mr. Alexander Speak.
The first speaker at the forenoon session
was President Alexander, who In the course
of an extended address defended the man
agement of the Equitable society and pre
sented data to prove that the business of
the institution had been successfully car
ried on. The management of the agency
Insurance department was highly com
mended by President Alexander, whb dwelt
on the growth of the society In the laBt
quarter of a century. He also laid stress
on the economy with which the society I
business had been conducted.
Mr. Hyde' speech, which E. H. Harrl
man had several times Interrupted with
replies to direct references of the speaker
to him, precipitated an excited and bitter
debate. One of the directors said that al
though as far as he knew the report of
the Frick committee represented only a
sincere effort to do a real service to the
society and the policyholders! yet he
thought it a suspicious circumstance that
the report contained no suggestion looking
to the elimination of one-man control. He
rejected the idea that Mr. Harrlman or
any other financial interests of Wall street
were working for the perpetuation of such
control and he believed that the attacks
on the Frick committee were Unjust and
unfair. ,
Gage' E. Tarbell, the second vice presi
dent, also addressed the meeting, devoting
his remarks to the management of the
domestlo agencle of which he ha direct
charge.
Defense of Mr. Hyde.
Mr. Hyde opened his defense before the
directors by saying that he recognized
this to be the crisis of his life. From
the beginning of this unfortunate contro
versy he had endeavored to bear his
troubles patiently and with a dignity be
fitting the high office which h held, but
even patience had Its limits and the wel
fare of the society, which was nearer his
heart than any other Interest involved in
the controversy, required him now to speak
out in no uncertain tone for its good name,
which had been assailed and dragged in
the dust by Its enemies, whose policy had
been one of rule or ruin.
Mr. Hyde referred . to this great monu
ment to prosperity that had been erected
by his father and said that he would be
false to his duty to the memory of his
father and to himself and his family if he
failed to defend his good name against the
Innumerable slurs that had been concocted
to capture me great trust fund that was
being held for the policy holders. He then
took up In detail the reports which he said
were four in number and stated that If any
honest man could find In anything con
tallied In the evidence before the commit
tee a single word or fact that could be
construed into wrongdoing he would sur
render his stock and retire to the oblivion
to which he was Justly deserving.
Cambon Dinner DUcaased.
He Insisted that there was not a single
act throughout his entire career with 'the
society which was the subject of so much
a Just criticism on the part of a fair
minded man, with the possible exception
of the Cambon dinner, and that difference
Of opinion as to business methods. In his
connection he said that --while he had de
posited the amount of his expenditure with

Dae. Mr. Alexander, ne said, was aware
before the giving ot the dinner that while
It was given In his (Hyde's) name, It was
a business proposition to help the society.
Mr. Hyde said of this function that fully
one-quarter of the guests had been Invited
by other people connected with the society
and were men of proininenoe In the com
munity with whom he was unacquainted. It
had been purely a business project, dis
cussed between th officers in advance. He
referred to the fact that shortly after the
dinner Mr. Alexander had oome to him

I.. WALL
Run Down In Strength, a Result of Stomach Catarrh
RIIsb L, Wall, 3.V) N. Dale street, St. Taul, Minn., wrltesTj
Last spring l haa a very severe case or catarru or tne
stomach and bowels. 1 was very much run tlown In
strength and lost my appetite.
"I took three bottles of Teruna and found myself gain
ing very quickly In every way.
"I nlso had catarrh in my head, which has been entirely
J cured. I thank Peruna for the health 1 ain enjoying."
WHAT IS DYSPEPSIA?
EPS1A is a term that has long betrw
in use. It is Intended to include all
disturbances of the dlitestlve organs.
If the stomnch is Inflamed and digestion
cease. It Is called dyspepsia.
If the saliva falls to perform Its function,
It Is cnlled dyspepsia.
If the glands of the stomach dry up, and
no longer secrete the peptic Juices, It Is
called dyspepsia.
Catarrh of the stomach Is called dyspepsia.
It is really a form of dyspepsia.
How Catarrh Affects Digestion
When catarrh attacks the mucous mem
branes of the stomach, the glands that
secrete the gastric Juices are deranged, the gastric
Juice isendered Inert and perverted in its action.
No one cau have healthy stomach or anything like
a healthy dlgttttlon so long as they have catarrh of
the stomach.
It Is useless to try to remedy dyspepsia caused by catarrh
of the stomach by taking pepsin powders or other dys
pepsia remedies.
A Rational Treatment
The first thing that must be done Is to remove the
catarrh, when the dyspeptical symptoms will disappear.
The stomach that Is free from catarrhal congestion will
do its work properly.
Pe-ru-na, the Correct Remedy
Peruna has become famous as a dyspepsia medicine only
because it cures catarrh of the stomach.
So many cases of dyspepsia depend upon catarrh of the
stomach, that the two diseases are becoming confused In
the minds of many people.
Not a Dyspepala Remedy
In ordinary sense, Peruna Is not a dyspepsia remedy.
It cures thousands of cases of dyspepsia by curing ca
tarrh of the stomnch, catarrh of the liver and catarrh of
all the digestive organs.
Whenever any one Is troubled with dyspepsia any length
of time, catarrh of the digestive organs may be suspected.
Do Not Waste Valuable Time
There is no use In wasting time with other remedies.
rrnnia reaches the spot at once and removes the cause.
Its cures are permanent, as it removes the cause.
Not a Cure-All
Teruna Is not a cure-all. It cures one disease that dis
ease is catarrh.
However, catarrh makes itself known by such varied
symptoms, that its various forms appear to the unprofes
sloual as so many different diseases. Catarrh Is catarrh,
no matter in what part of the body it locates Itself.
Ternua cures catarrh wherever located.
Cambon, referring to various matters in
France In which the society was Interested.
As to his participation In syndicates Mr.
Hyde said he had been in many syndicates,
always with Mr. Alexander," In which the
Equitable had no concern whatever, and In
many of them he lost money. Mr. Hyde
said that every man present knew that If
the fact of being an officer of a financial
institution was to debar a man from In
vesting his own money in syndicates or
other operations nobody of any financial
ability could ever be got to take a position
with a financial institution.
Mr. Hyde went on to say that he pro
posed to insist on his rights to these com
missions. After a full analysis of the
various transactions he referred to the
great prosperity of the society, saying that
the enormous Increase in Its surplus was
due to the wisdom and conservatism of its
management, to its many successful sub
sidiary companies and the way In which
they had been managed. He concluded by
demanding the utter rejection and repudia
tion of any report that criticised his ad
ministration and said he would force an
opportunity to let the public know what
was behind these attacks.
It is understood that a motion was then
made to discharge the committee and that
It was carried.
Mr. Hyde's friends on the board then
stated that they recognized the welfare of
the society required some man of great
dominating Influence and national reputa
tion at Its head to restore public confi
dence.
'Will Elect Chairman of Bonrd.
A resolution providing for the appoint
ment of a chairman of the board was ac
cordingly offered and was voted for by all
present. It is said. This chairman will
have all the power that heretofore was
vested by the by-laws In the president.
No candidates were suggested.
The question as to whether Mr. Hyde
would be willing to trustee his stock was
then raised and the resolution requesting
that he divest himself of control by such
a trusteeship was aonpieo.
Mr. Hyde, however, made no pledge on
that subject.
In the course of the heated debate many
Insinuations were thrown out as to the real
purpose of the report and the alleged at
tempt to capture control of the society.
In thlB connection it was pointed out that
the position of the rival factions Is inter
esting In its bearing on what is called a
great pending railroad war.
The supposed efforts of the Pennsylvania
railroad to keep the Oould system out of
Pittsburg were cited as a case in point.
The reported strained relations between
the Harrlman and Gould factions because
of Mr. Gould's proposed extension of his
system to the Pacific coast were cited In
this same connection.
After the final adjournment Mr. Ingalls
said on leaving the board room: "It's all
gone Hyde's way."
When Mr. Frick came out he said: "Our
report has been practically rejected by
the board and I have resigned In disgust.
I shall have nothing further to do with
Equitable affairs."
Mr. Hyde appeared to be satisfied and
Mr. Tarbell seemed pleased.

Better of the Argument In
Late Rounds.
SAN FRANCISCO. June 1-Eddle Han
Ion fouftht Young Corbel t to a standstill
during the Inst few rounds of a twenty
round contest tonight and was awarded a
trrd earned decision by Referee Homan.
The fight was an exciting one from start
to finish. During the first part of the con
test Hanlon had a slight advantage, but no
harm was done to either man until the
eleventh round. Then Hanlon rushed Cor
bett to the ropes, but the Denver man
stalled him off and blocked a number of
stomach punches. Corbett got to the cnter
of the ring and In a mlx-up landed left and
right swings on Hanlon's law. The San
Francisco boy went to his knees and took
the count of nine. He came up fighting and
In snlte of Corhett's strenuous efforts to
put him out he finished the round strong.
For the next four rounds Corbett went at
his ma and In the thirteenth had Hanlon
very tired, hut he could not land a knock
out blow. Hanlon braced up In the four
teenth and seemed to have a slight margin
over Corbett. The fifteenth round was
about even. Hanlon landed a left and right
to the Jaw. but thev did no harm. The six
teenth was Corbett's by a large majority.
He landed a series of right upperout t
the face and Hanlon was very tired. Th
seventeenth was Hanlon's round. He up
percutted Corbett to the face and stomach,
Corbett was apparently tired and unable to .
hit back. The eighteenth was about even,
although Corbett had a shade the better oi
it at the end. The nineteenth and twentieth
