CRIMINAL ASSAULT AS WELL AS MURDER Counts in the Indictments Against Jennie Bosschieter's Murderers. ItEnUBUC SPECIAL. New York. Oct. 31.

Murder, as well as criminal assault, will constitute the counts in tho indictments of Walter McAllister, Andrew Campbell, Georgo Kerr and Will-lam Death, which will be found to-morrow against tha four men charged with the death of Jessie Bosschleter. Judge Jonathan Dixon, before whom, tho four men will be tried, ho directed tho Grand Jury to-day, and it Is known that that body is now prepared to follow tho court's direction. Judgo Dixon, who Is ono of Xew Jersey's leading Jurists, did not mlnco words In his talk to the Jury. Ho made a special charge to that body, and his remarks evidenced a familiarity with all the horrifying details of tho case. To-night buupoenaa wero issued lor the appearance the Grand Jury room of tho witnesses who are tho same as testified at tho Coroner's Inquest, l'rosecutor linley 1ms completed the preparation of tho case and no expects the Indictment of tho accused men lor murder In the first degree.

Conviction on that Indictment means capital punishment. To establish the presence of chloral or a stupefying drug in tho stomach of the murdered girl, tho chemist who made the analytical examination of the contents of the stomach will probably be a witness before tho Grand Jury. The examination has been completed, and the chemist 1-s prepared to stato on oath that such a drug was discovered. In the absence of tho chemist as a witness. Campbell or Death, who have confessed, will probably be called upon to testify that a drug was dropped into the drink purtaken of by Jennie.

In this event, If asked, they will declare that Walter McAllister poured the drug Into the girl's glass. McAllister's relatives are making a herculean effort to engage a prominent lawyer in Patorson to look after the Interests of the accused man. Overture have been mails which he up to tho present holds In abeyance. Several lawyers of Paterson, who harn been approached, have declined the offer of handsome retaining fec, not caring to be Identified with tho case. Price Current' Coninarlnona.

DAVID NICnOLSOS, 8L LonlJ, Ho. STRUGGLED TO KEEP FRGBi PRISON CELL. It Required Two Officers to Evict Guslav Behring From the Victoria Hotel. "ONLY DEMANDED RIGHTS. Puts ITe Was Told by TTis Mother oil Her Deathbed That He Was the Son of George M.

Pullman, Sr. r.npunr.ic special New York, Oct. 31. Broadway's busy morning throng stopped on Its way to luncheon to-day to watch the frantic struggles of a man. He wa3 tall, broad-r-houldered and 33.

and Policeman Converse and Dotcctlvo Clifford were having all tliey could do to drag him from the Victoria Hotel to the Tenderloin 1'ollco Station. A few minuted brforo this man had given half a dozen porters In tho Victoria a tussle, in which chairs and tables were overturned like nine pins. Tho man was Gustav I'ehring Gustav Tollman, he says without a home, but. according to his claims, entitled to a share In tho millions left by the late parlor-car magnate, whom ISehrlng claimed as a father. This claim ha.i caused tho claimant neverul kinds of Inconvenience and tho Pullman family no end of annoyance.

Out In Chicago he has been nrrestcd at their Instance again and again, but ho has borne his Incarceration with fortitude nnd, on being llbernted, has again presented his claims. This tlmo he sauntered Into tho Victoria and up to the desk, taking a card from a well-worn wallot. Ho was not fashionably dresred and fo had to await the b'lsure of tho clerk of whom ho had nsked: "May I seo George W. Sanger Pullman?" But when at last the card was considered and tho namo "Gustav Pullman" was seen on Its faco, it was quickly sent upstairs and tho visitor. pardon wao begged.

In reply to the card, however, Georgo Pullman sent this note to the clerk: "I can't sec this fellow. Have thrown out." "I nra a son of the late George M. Pullman," slid the man when he was told to go. "and I have a right to demand the I came hero to get." Then camo tho tiilo with the hotel porters, who, one by one, were called In to re-enforce the man who first attempted to obey tho orders of George M. Pullman.

Detective Clifford then made an effort to convey the disturber to tho West Thirtieth Street Police Station, but so strenuous were the struggles of his prisoner that ho had to call lor the a.bl?tnnce of Policeman Converse, with which lie succeeded. Bulir-lng was nrralgntd before Magistrate Mott In the Jefferson Market Police Court and sent to liellevua Hospital for examination as to his sanity. It was not the first time that a recognized child of the dead millionaire had sent this man for such itn examination, and In the lust one, which was in Chicago, tho outcast came out a victor. He was ad-Judged by Doctor Bergeron, an expert of that city, in tho public service. Behriiis's story is this: IIIk Muthcr'H Deathbed Statement.

"I am not Insane, nor have I willfully created any disturbance, but I will not meekly submit to arrest when I am peaceably asserting my legal rights. My mother waa an honest woman, and on her deathbed she said that I was her son and Georgw inillman. Sr's. She would hardly havo lied then, of all times. No one ever thought of calling me Insane until I preaented my cluims.

They did this to be rid of me. My mother was a governess In the Pullman homo twenty-nine yearn ago, and the Pullmans know that my atory la true." IJehring tried to enter tho Pullman residence In Chicago during tho funeral services of the dead millionaire on October 20, He waa ejected and arrested, and a week later Doctor Ecrgeon declared tliat was sane. A year previous to that time, according to hi story. had presented to Mr. Pullman proof of his parentage, and had been forcibly doiiorted to Germany.

On Ids return, ho the parlor-car magnate snatched the papers ho had In proof of his birth and tore them up before his fven. Then he thrust Behring from his house and lmd him placed In an Insane asvlum. Thi is what Behring says. The Pullmans deny it. I'lvo times in Chlcjgo 1, ii fnr cnllimr at the residence of Mr.

Renounce McKinleyism and Will Hold Mass Meeting Sunday to Organize a Club. BIG SUFFERERS BY TRUSTS. Publications of the Race Denounce This Evil in Explaining Their Defection Bryan Writes io the Leaders. As a result of tho change of their two publications of widest circulation to the Democratic party, the Hebrews of St. Louis have called a maa meeting for Sunday next at Harugari Hall to form a St.

Ixul: Hebrew Democratic Club, to be permanent lu organization. The action of tho Jewish Dally News and the Jewish Gazette In going over to Bryan October 28, adopting tho policy taken by the Jewish Dvenlng Post ten days ago, leaves the Republican party without a single representative Journal among the Hebrews, who wero up to this year always firmly allied with that party. In his editorial of October ZS Hyman Sarahson, edltor-ln-chief of the Jewish Dally Newy, gave an the paramount reason for hi.s advocacy of the democratic principles of the Democratic party his belief that the trusts, which are f.ivored by the Republican administration, hurt the Hebrews as a class more than any other contingent of our population. Tho Hebrews, Mr. Sarahson explained, aro a raco of small and middle merchants, to whom any trut or monopoly Is directly antagonistic Many of the raco who were, up to a short time ago.

Independent merchants, he stated, h.ivo been orowded out by the trusts or forced to become their employes at small salaries. This, Mr. Sarahson says, is matter of current comment In Hebrew circles everywhere to-day. Heretofore the Jewish Herald alone among the national publications of tho Hebrews Mood for the Democratic party. Now not one favors McKInley.

All of these papers have large circulations in thin city, where the Jewish vote amounts to upwards of The change of a greater portion of this vote to the Democratic party in this city, whero majorities for the Republicans have ranged from only 5,110 to 14.000, tantamount to a shifting of the buluncc of power Into tho hands of the Democratic party. Doctor George II. Alch, chairman of the commltteo In charge of arrangements fo'r the mass meeting at Harugurl Hall, will point out In his Introductory speech Sunday night that many If not most of the Hebrews In tills city are of RusMan birth, having departed their native land because of the enforced military sen-ice to which their sons aro there subjected during the best five years of their lives. The menace of Imperialism is particularly baneful to them. The meeting is to ba conducted almost entirely In Hebrew, in which language, too, tho speeches are to be delivered.

All points in tho national Issues will be taken up In detail; the editorial of tho Jewish Dally News will ba read, as will also Mr. Bryan's reply to the same on October 19. There will be also a ytereoptlcon exhibition by the Jeffer-aon Club. feTlIX APTEll Sim.SCRIPTTO.VS. ISepubllcan City Committee's Itcpre-jicntulivc Again Inruile City Hall.

The Judges and clerks of both parties in tho city and Stuto havo been notified to this effect by their respective chairmen.
