Futile Efforts to Serve tne Indicted Men vvlttx Capiases. ARRAIGNING THE MATOK. The graad Jury concludes that la its opinion gambling would instantly sad entirely atop in Chicago if tbe city administration ao desire it Mrvort of tlw January Grand Jury to the Criminal Court. As predicted in thee oolnmnt, the January grand Jury yesterday returned ft batch of indictments against tha gamblers of Chisago. Incidentally, too.

the jary returned a Hootch Terdiot as to Mayor Cregier and bis Chief of Police guilty, but not proven. Bare is the poll of tha jury as to the gamblers: XKDICTKD AJfBXJEXS. GEOBGE Na 134 South Clark street 1 me bill. HABET No. 134 Bbuth Clark street, true bill.

Br far theigreatest achievement of the jury, however, is its fearless arraignment of- the Mayor and his General Superintendent of Polios. It found that these two men could sup-.

prsssgsmbliDg without effort if they so desired. The jury's communication to the Court follows: CHICAGO. Feb. 1. 1890.

Tha Honorable Criminal Court of Cook County The January (rand jary bee leavd to preset in closing ita labors tor the term that So" cases were considered, of which 141 were returned aa trne bills, 144 ignored, and twenty-two passed te the next grand jury. Visits were paid to tha insane arylum. the poor-house, tha County Hospital, and th JaiL They all appeared to be in an excellent aunitary condition, and uader good management The Insane asylum and poor-hone are both crowded to excess, and provision should be made at the earliest data for more room. The food at the coaoty jail waa found wholesome, well cooked, and plentiful. Thia grand jary haa returned a number of indictments against persane charged with keeping common gambliag-hoaaea, and would doubtless have returned more had there been more evidence.

There appeared to be no oueatioa from the beginning aa to the existence of gambling ia Chicago. It required little evidence to prove thia, and the attention of the jury was given to endeavoring to coaaect persons with the criminal Buildinga mav not be' indicted, bat keepers may. Thia offense mast be proven aa any ether, and ia the nature of thine a a grnd jury can not resolve itaeif intoabody of detectivea and itself provide for evidence. It must depend on outaide assistance for that. The Mayor Of Chicago and Chief of Police both readily agreed to give help, but none was forthcoming.

Their good promises amounted to nothing. The work of the grand jury ia inuicting the ramblers was done in-depesdently of the city administration. It ia to be hoped that Jt will lend a more hearty assistance when the caaea come np for trial. The volume of evidence promised and nartly supplied by aa independent organization was weak and ineffective, borne yonn3 boys testified to what the grand-jury already knew of the location of g-mbling-houses, but notbau? as to the keepers. Tne ii rand jury coocinues that, ia ita opinion; gambling would instantly and entirely stop in Chicago if the city administration ao desired, and that the best efforts of a srana jury in tnis direction can only be partial and incomplete.

Very respectfully, Jamkj It. TiLik, Foreman oi the Grand ory. The grand jury, finishing up its business ten mi on tea after it comir-enced at 1U yesterday morning, adjourned till noon in order that AeaiMaut State Attorney George H. Baker might draw up the necessary instruments to present to the Court At 121:45 o'clock Judge Waterman opened court and stmt a baii.ff to tuc grand jury room to inform that body that -the Court was ia readiness to nceive its report Two jarora were absent at the time, but uo time waa lost on that aeeouut For. man Tyler banded iu the jorv's report, whicn the judge received, and wituout more ado dismissed the jury.

There was no representative of the gamblers about the court-room wheu the jury handed in its report None but reporters aud attaches of the State's Attorney's office were present. Immediately on te returoe of the indictments, they were adtd over to the clerk of the Criminal Court, tranaerred to the ro-orla, and CAPIASES ISSUED for the arrest of the indicted men. AH the indiormente were -similar, fixing Aug. 1. 1889, aa trie dale oa which the indicted poisons kept common framing nouses, contrary to tha statute.

All but one contained live different oounta, one for permitting tue game of roulette to be played, others for faro, wheel of fortune, hazard, and cards. George Hank ids and Harry Bomayne, of Na 134 Clark street, were indicted together. Astainet Uankins there are two former indictments and oonvictionsiu 1882. There is a former incitement and conviction against lioniayno in 1882. Because of tbese former convictions bad was fixed at $3,000 for each.

In 1M81 Haukuis was boding forth at Na 134 Clark street, and waa indicted by the Jao-uaiy asd February grand juries in 1882. At the April term of that vear no was eonvioted in ecn case, and fined $500 in one and $J50 ia the other. Bomayne waa then at Na 2137 Wabash avenue, and at the same term of court Was convicted and fitted $2311. Against Andrew J. boott, and be alone, two indicunenta were returned.

One waa for keeping a gaming house at Na 464 State street, and permitting roulette to be played there. BAH. WAS TIXU) at $1,000 in this case. cou was also tndioted unaer the habitual criminal act for keeping a gaming house at Na 86 Fourth avenue, one couDl charging a former conviction in 1882 for running a poker game at Na 295 South Clark street, for which he was fined SoOO. In thu oase bail waa fixed at S2.00U In alt the other ease bad waa fixed at 1,000 for each man, Against John Condon and hamnel Dahi a trae bill waa returned charging them with permitting a Tariaty of game at Na 14 Quincy street.

i. John Jordan and "one Mo An ley, whose first name is unknown, were joined in the mil against Na 119 Dearborn street. Charles Weathers bee, of Na 176 South Clark Street, was indicted alone. -Lavrry ling, Henry Basse tt. and Fred Foes, all connected with Na 170 South Clark street.

Completed the list Tne capias were placed tn the hands of Bailiffs Coey and Carney, and a merry ohaae these two offlciala had. They first sttemptod to find Ban kins and Homayae, the owners of Na 134 South Clark street. Both floors of this. the great-st gambling den ia tha West, were packed with POOBX.Y CXA SfkdKAXICS and laborers. It was after 4 o'clock wben they entered tha place, and the den was then running wide open.

Laborers who bad just received their week's aiarieav were losing their money against the game. The bailiffs soiroued the place from basement to root, but nowhere eould the iu dieted men be found. Ia new of the facts that Georne Hankine jomned the town Friday morning, going to Brooklyn, and that Harry Itomayne haa been in New Orleans ft week, the failure of th bailiffs to ar rest them is not at all surprising. The two men then went down to the Store." Na 176 South Clark street, after Charles Weathers bee. Assuming an air of familiarity, Coey passed through a mob at the faro lay out, and, addressing the dealer, aaked: "Charley in" TBS IEATX WAS 0af is moment Char ley who!" be aaked, Innooeutly.

Why, yon know Weatbersbeer' The presenee of the bailiffs had been kUpped off" to the attaohee of the bouse, and at this stage of the intoi view the two men were surrounded by a circle of men nudging oa another in tha ribs and xohaagiag knowing glances, Weather bee? Weathersbee? Never heard the name before. Gueaa your ia the wrong place, gentlemen, Did you inquire in the tailors below?" At this a -Uy great laugh went an from the crowd, and the bailiffs becoming tred at what they tnougbt waa a deliberate attempt to guy them announced their mission ia no uncertain language, and demanded that Weathers bee make himself kuown. They might just aa well hare called for Scnaaubelt, the bomb-thrower, or Cooney the Fox. Neither of the men knew Weatuersbee. and relied entirely upon strategy for hie ideality.

They failed utterly in their eearcn ror Weatherabee, and lert tne "Store" with the unserved capias for that worthy's arrest still in pocket -it is stated on good authority that TH DKALXB THET aODIIUID at the faro table was none other than the man they were looking foe The bailiffs then knocked dents into th crowns of their hats, surreptiously shed their collars and neckties, bedaubed their highly polished shoes with mud and strode negligently into the lair of the tiger at o. 17 mark. "Fred inf" queried Coey, aa he passed the aooraerper. That personage had been "flagged" by an emissary a moment beior the arrival of th Lai I ffs. "Don't know who you mean," replied th astute door-tender.

"Fred Foes, th fallow with th spectacles and whiakera." explained Coey. glancing about th room for the man who had been described to him in the manner communicated to the man at the door. Fobs specs whiskers?" repeated th latter quruionsly. 'Don't know Is Larrv King here, then?" "What son of a looking man is King?" affect ing the moat painful interest In th bailiff a question. "vi axe coust omcua," finally admitted Coey.

"and we have caplaae for the arrest of these two men." "Don't know either one of them, gentle men." "Well, who ia proprietor or manager of the ni'coT" "Don't know." "Who paya you?" "Nobody." "You re on the door here, are you not? "Guess ot ouly happened to stand bar a you came up." At Na 119 Dearborn t-et they aaked for John Condon. John Condon was not in; he might be found at Na 14 Quincy street At Na 14 Qaiuov street thev were told trial Con don bad not been there all day; they might find lum at Aa 1 is iearuoru street. "Just come from there; waa told that he could be louud here." "Satisfy yourselves, cents." inviting the bailiffs in. Condon wis net in, of eoursa left for Denver immediately upon hearing or the proba bility ot bis being indicted. In this way the BAiurra webe "whipsawxd at every turn.

Though th hearing of th testimony hold over the remains of Robert Gibbons consumed a great deal of time, every witness told substantially th aam story.

The Captain waa sworn, and when fe hid told hi story it took th jury as long to reach a verdict as the time consumed In filling eat th blank form.

But one witness to th shooting, or rather to th aciJB which resulted in th shooting, waa missing. Alderman McCormick. By common oouaent of all the witnesses, this man, who now disgrace the City ConnciL, waa the aggressor, and thsons directly- responsible for the fracas. HAVE MAD rOETT polioamaen out searching for this man all day." explained Captain Koch to Uoroiier Hertz, "but he can't be found." In truth McCormick had good reasons for not wanting to be a witn res, and it is thought that aom criminal proceeding of ft more sarions earn than th charge of disorderly conduct will be brought again at him when he turn up again. Among those wh watched yesterday's proceedings with istereet was ex-ch lef, now Inspector G.

W. Hubbard. Judge Baroum. representing Tom Lynch, waa on hand all morning and. thougn aia duties were light, his glance waa qack and aearchtng, and he lost oot a word of the testimony.

th bweeneya, the Gibbonae, th McCormick were all ttiere all but the one dead G.bbous and on McCormick who really caused tne death, behuettier'a friends were on band, too. Fin.lly tne Market atreet gang took ita hat off. and tbe Captain haying enured and a-ated himself. Coroner Herts said he was rady. County fhysician Dr.

Hencbling took th wttnes ebair first Assisted by Dr. Egbert bad mad a poet-mortem examination of th remain of Kooert Gibbons. "He was a man about 34 years of age." began the Doctor, "a feet 11 lushes high, aid weighing about 210 pounds, We found no external marks on th body except a pnnetursl wound directly above the nipple. The bullet, which afterward found imbedded ia th left lung, had passed through the skin and muscle, fractured th first rib, and penetrated th Jung." Her the doctor exhibited ft 3S-cal bra Englian-niade bullet, which waa iupcted by to jurymen and then returned to th witness. "Now.

Doctor, when did you last see Captain Sobusftlsr before to-day "Between 11 and 1 2 o'clock Taseday night I found him at my house awaiting my retarn to drese his wonnda. I found 'his right forehead bruised and the right eye preuy badly swoUsn, His right ohsek waa awollen, and above th i ight eve there wae aa aberration of tn akin. Th, --re ws a wound juat above th right ear, and my patient bad much difficulty in breathing. There was also a wound, oa the head. All these wounds appeared to hav bean produced by some Hunt instrument" WBS THXT SUCH ft character a to ahow Ibat th Captain had been badly hurt?" Yes; 1 am quit sur that these wound did aroduo severe bodily luiuries." Foreman Mason then inquired if th Doctor though th wound were sever enough to warrant the person receiving them ia believing that he bad been eerioualy hurt, aad that th person who inflicted them meant to in jura th recipient "Beyond doubt," answered the Doctor.

"Were they, in your opinion, mad by powerful man?" Ooly a powerful maa! eould hav inflicted such injuries with his bar flats." Th next and perhaps th beat witness waa th bartender who was oa duty at the time of tne shooting. Edwin Boop by name, of Na 1S8 East Oiiw street went on duty at 6 o'clock last Tuesday evening. Wnea he earns in he found Alderman McCormick. Bob Gib-bone, Tom Lyueu, and Redmond McDonald at the bar drinking. A few other whom he did net know were about the about 8:40 o'clock Captaiu bcnuettler came iu with Mike and Nio Fetrie.

The trio walked up te the bar some distano from th McCormick gang, waom ttiydi not ae till tuey turned and called for drinka After HchueuWe party bad taksa a drink Nie Petrie said to Alderman McCormick: "Do von know Captain tSch "Yea;" said th Alderman dryly, bay mi bfor.n Ihea soms words pissed which did not hear, aad tae next thing be aaw waa th Alderman throw a eigar at Schuettler. HohuetUer aaid to McCormick: "TTe oaa't afford to get in trouble bore." McCormick answered no, thsr would do troubl, and then aaked them all to hav a drink. Cigars wore aerved Instead, and then bohenttler and party started to go out Gibbon started after Hohuettler, and a moment later th bar-tender heard a fall and knew that the two men G.bbone and Bchuettler were acuffling th other aid of th screen which a. pa. rate bar-room from the eigar stand.

At th earns am McCormick attempted to follow bohnettler and Gibbons. McDonald hold him back, aad for hi pain got a blow on th forehead from th spios dish wielded by Mo-Cermiok. Then a abot waa fired, and moment later Gibbon staggered ia and back to th washroom, saying: "In hot; I'm kUld. rest of th atery was givu as told In th press th next day. An officer earn in, and Kcbue tiler erjerod MoCornuck' arras and aaw that to wounded mas was Ukta home.

He saw some one hit sm on else a tu iaid of th bar-room, and wha lie stepped to th dividing screen tbar in front of th oigar-atand be saw one man on too of Schuettler with his hands grasping the Cap- lain a throat Schnsttler waa prone on hi back and his assailant, was striking him with hi dis engaged Then he beard a pistol shot' Kchusttler's assailant relaxed his grasp, straightened up, and staggered back in th barroom, followed by McCormick. Then Bohnettler came back and tbe three me went to th wash-room.

Wbea Boh settler cam 'back aaid in reepona to a question: "I nCr THAT SmOT." Th next witn waa William B. Nntt, of Na 1611 Wabash a venne, who ia a renting agent Mr. Nutt earn int th ealooa at 6:30 o'clock tn company with Mr. Geeeeman. He reoosmised Max Petri aad spoke to him.

To first hoard of any trouble waa wben McCormick aaid to bohnettler: "I bav a mouthful at dirty word for you. Schuettler aaa wared: "I will hav no troubl with you to-night" Witnaas said McCormick than mad aa thou-h hs would striks bohnettler, but Bsdmood McDonald held the Alderman back. Witneea waa aiUing at the table at the opposite aide of tbe room and did not watch the partis closely. The next thing he remembered was wbsa ft moment later Schuettler and th Petri brother started to go out, McCormick struck Nio Petri aa passed by. Almost at th asm moment a big man grabbed Bonnet tier, who was a little ahead of th Fetries, and threw Schuettler on the ground, Witne thought Gibbon tripped Bobuttir with hi foot be for th Captain really knew that hs was being attacked.

Almost simultaneously, at th other' aid of th screen, MoCormiok stmck Bedmond McDonald with a apios-diah. Tbe blood spurted from McDonald's forehead. There was a general row, th witn thought At himaelf ws sitting on th table by thi time. Nio Petri was trying to fiad his way out through th rear trait aad evo th bartender waa making tracks for tbe washroom. He heard a ahot aad aaw McCormick run atricken with terror toward th rear an-traaoa.

i hen Gibbons staggered in. saying: "I'm hit, John." John waa making track to get out at thia time, and Gibbon staggered after him toward the wash-room. Witness knew Tom Lynch, but did not see him make any offensive movements. Kedmoud McDonald, th Camp 20 ex-polio. man, who.

In th Cronin trial, swore to Coughlin' alibi, waa tne a called. Hi memory was very defective said he did try to bold McCormick back sevsral timea, and at last got atrnck with a dish lor nio paina, xbinga were kinaer dim up. bcnuettler and get excited Tom Lynch, aaid, got out of th saloon before the shooting. He entered th saloon at about 6:30 o'clock with Alderman McCormick, Tom Lynch, and Bob Gibbons. Tnsy had ft few drinks, of course, bnt as oae in hi party had too much aboard.

"Now, what waa th conversation batwar th Schuettler party and your party?" Well, really the witness couldn't remember anything tuat waa aaid. Ths Coroner triad again and again, nutting bis questions in various forms, but lik all Camp 20 witnesses lied McDooa a mind was a total blank. He kuew all were sober; bnt there, "on the dead square," couldn't remember word that was spogrn. "wxxx, MX IKHAIJ," aid th Coroner, a little aggravated by the ob-tuseaees of tbe witness, "it is not proper for me to say I do not believa yon, bnt 1 wisn I had tii power to lock you-up. You ar interfering with thia investigation and hindering ths jury from getting at tbe truth of thia affair." "1 can't help it," aaid th witness; "I tell yon I heard some one mention Scbaack'e name aud then some one said there shouldn't be any fight then, bnt I cau't remember wno said these things or anything siae that was said titer.

"Yon hav been on th fore bar for two yen re. Do you remember that bebuetUer revoked Gibbons' license once?" I don't know. "Bnt didu't you hear that eueh waa the ease?" "1 guees so; I think I heard soma thing about that' A few more fa tils questions lik this, and th Coron'r gave over hi efforts to extract anything further from the ex-policeman. Aa a friend of the deceased. John Chamber waa then called.

He aaid Bob Gibbon had been born io Ireland: had a wife and four eiiUdrej, three of whom war living. Gibbon had worked aa a journeyman plumber for five years before he open hi aaloou. Witness heard it said tuat Bohnettler had polled bis guu and tnreatened to shoot before Gibbons ma-Je ths saeanlt Bnt really, try as be might, wit-eea could not remember who he beard say this. No; Gibbons otdn't say it Ha heard it aomewbeia John Vogelsang, -proprietor of th saloon where the anoouog occurred, bad but little to tell. He left th saloon at 6:20 o'clock on Tueeday evening aad did not return till 8 'clock.
