PLACE FOR AN EXILE (Continued from First Page.) ber for Drog-heta, and the warm hearted and redoubtable Dr. Tanner was, when he abandoned hla profession for political life, one of the most eminent of the rising gen eration of surgeons. Mr. John Dillon, as everybody knows, was intended for the medical . profession, passed through his course of lectures and took the degree of licentiate in the College of Surgeons. Many stories' are told of the late Dr. Kevin Jzod O'Doherty. It is said that one of the judges who tried him for high treason in 1848 exclaimed in humorous horror: ' "Heaven! How could a man with a name like that help being a rebel?" When Dr. tJ'Doherty stcod for the first time as parliamentary candidate for Bris bane he was called away on the evening of polling day to an urgent case Some dis tance outside the city. On his return he met some horsemen comina; from Brisbane. In response to his inquiry an to the latest new from the polling places and the ques tion "who's In?" he received the gratifying if somewhat ungracious reply: "That damned old rebel, O'Doherty." GREAT LOCKOUT IN BERLIN Three Electrical Companies Close the Gates Against 83,000 Work- BERLIN, Sept. 30.-A lockout in three of the greatest electrical companies In Berlin I began this afternoon. It affects all the fac tories of the Allgeinelne, the Siemens Ilalske and the Slemens-Shuckert com panies except one lamp factory, and throws about 33,000 workmen out of employment. As yet the trouble has not affected the entire electrical industry, but It shows signs of spreading. The employes of the Berlin electrical works, which generates nearly all the electricity consumed for power and traction purposes In Berlin, met this even ing to consider a sympathetic strike, but deferred action until Sunday night In order to await the result of a conference to be held Sunday morning between the three companies affected and the employes. This conference will be presided over by Herr von Schults, president of the government arbitration bureau, but will have no official character, as the companies refuse to par ticipate in the appeal for arbitration. They agreed, however, to meet the labor repre sentatives In conference with Herr von Schults presiding. He is an expert in set tling labor difficulties and therefore it is hoped he will succeed In stopping the pres ent trouble.

GRAND JURY MAKES ITS FINAL REPORT Says City aad CoaaTty OSBeee Are Honeycombed with Corraotloa aad Vice Is Itegnlarly Organised. MILWAUKEE, Sept. JO.-Comollus L. Corcoran, the president of the eom mnn council of this city, together with a former alderman and two private citizen, were Indicted by the grand Jury In Its nnal sitting, which ended tonight at 10 o'clock. Corcoran In th only capias Issued for his arrest Is eharged with selling hay and oats to the city, which Is a violation of a city statute which states that no officeholder shall enter Into a contract to sell goods of any kind to the city. Frank C. Klode, president of a local furniture company I which sold furniture to the county, Is In dicted on a charge of perjury. William Murphy, a former alderman, ia charred with bribery and Fred C. Schults, a re porter, with bribery. The grand Jury rec ommended the calling of grand Juries periodically. The number of indictments returned In the final sitting was twenty-four, Involving four persons, as follows; , Cornelius L. Corcoran, president of the Common council, twenty counts. Fred C. Schults, newspaper reporter, one Indictment, bribery Frank C. Klode, president of a local fur. nitnre-company, one Indictment, perjury. William Murphy, former alderman, two indictments, perjury. Vice and Crime Organised. The total number of Indictments returned since th Jury convened. Including to night's batch, will approximate nearly 150 and will affect about forty individuals. In Its report on the tabors of the summer ths grand Jury took occasion to say that Its In vestigation had developed a most surprising state of affairs, "vice and crime being reg ularly organised and fostered." The report continues: Wa doubt if one cltiien In 1,000 knows the corrupt ways In which the affairs of this community have been conducted. The ef fort fully to expose these conditions has been opposed by corrupt interest and sys. tematlc resistance of power In efforts to conceal the truth and encourage crime. tVe have been hampered by the efforts of wit nesses to conceal the facts and in many of these instances It haa been apparent that the witness was testifying falBely. Our observations regarding the vice and crime of perjury Is such that we must charac terise It as nothing short of outrageous. Officers Charge Illegal Fees. The report states that the administration of the sheriff's office during the last six years has been Investigated and that it has been found that after that office was placed on a salary basis a system of fee taking grew up at variance within the meaning of the statute. It recommends that this fee taking be still further scrutinized and that th county board take steps to stop this form of grafting. Many ways tn which th sheriff's office profits from these fees are mentioned. Bribery, the report says, Is an everyday affair. County offices should be Investigated. The county clerk should not get fees, but does, and th practice should be stopped at once. Th recent raid upon gambling houses and prosecution of the keepers and Inmates thereof by the district attorney's office dis closes that In the city of Milwaukee there have been for years at least eight fully equipped wide open gambling houses. The Investigation discloses, the report says, that the eight gambling houses raided are per mitted in the very heart of the city and without Interference tb conduct common games of faro, roulette, craps' and poker, while other gamblers who sought to start such games In their places Of business were promptly raided by the police. The Jury's report says that since 'the starting of the Investigation of affairs in county and city in 1903 there has-been a noticeable decline In "grafting" and other corruptness. Th Jury recommends that grand Juries be sum moned periodically to Investigate affairs in county and city.
