Louisville, April 19.—The Franklin county grand jury has returned true bills against Dr. W. Godfrey Hunter, the Republican nominee for the United senate; former Congressman John H. Wilson of the Eleventh dis« trict, Captain Noel Gaines and his brother—in-law, Thomas Tanner of ,Frankfort, all of whom have been in- dicted for conspiracy to bribe. .All are Republicans with the exception of Gaines and Tanner. When the indictments had been re- turned, Judge Cantrili ordered that bench warrants be issued for the arrest of the accused and made returnable for the next term of the court, which is in September. * Bail was fixed at $250 in - each case. When asked why he set the cases for next September, Judge Can— trill said, “I do not think it proper to. try the cases at this term of the court, but if the parties come in and ask for an immediate trial I will proceed with it at once, otherwise it will go over un- til September.” Conspiracy to bribe is a common law offense in Kentucky, the penalty being a fine or imprisonment, or both, at the discretion of the grand jury. The friends of Dr. Hunter are greatly re— joiced that no indictment charging per- jury was returned, as this is a felony. The accused'have engaged the best attorneys in the state to defend ,them, and while no consultation has been held and no steps decided on it is said that immediate trials will be asked. Captain Noel Gaines, one of the in- dicted parties and the man who claimed that Hunter and his lieutenants had endeavored to secure his assistance in obtaining votes, gave out an interview, asserting his innocence and saying among other things, “A man may be forgiven for stealing, as when starva- tion is at hand, but no man should be countenanced for lying, as these men, Hunter, Wilson and others, have done.” He said, that he was satisfied that he would be dismissed as soon as his case was heard. Chairman Jones of the Republican caucus said that it was a “diaboiical conspiracy” and that the Republicans would disprove and resent it in proper spirit. State Senator Deboe was of the same opinion, and not one of the Re— publican leaders hesitated to condemn the action of the grand jury as partisan and prejudiced. BRITONS TAKE GAMASBP. The Native Uprising In' Bechuanaland Sun-erg. a. Setback. " Cape Town, April 19.—The stronghold of Gamasep, Bechuanaland, has been captured by the Duke of Edinburgh’s own volunteer rifles. Galishowe lost 300 horses, many cattle and many Warriors. The British had six wounded. A dispatch from Cape Town on Dec: 26, 1896, announced that the native ris— ing on the Taung reserve in Bechuanas land had developed into serious pro- portions. A parley had been refused by the natives, fighting had been indulged in, and the British had been obliged to wait re—enforcements. It was also re~ ported that Taung rebels, led by whites belonging to the Cape Town volunteers, had mobilized the burghers and that the disturbed districts were under arms. A dispatch from Cape Town two days later announced that the Taung rebels had been routed utterly at Pokwani camp. England After Delagoa Bay. Lisbon, April 19.—The supposed Brit— ish designs upon Delagoa bay are the subject of universal comment in gov- ernment circles. The object of the Ger- man campaign against Great Britain in South African matters is assumed to be carried on with the aim of discrediting England in the eyes of Portugal. The people of Lisbon are incensed at the prospect of losing Delagoa bay. The Republican party has adopted long res- olutions protesting against the surren- der and accusing the monarchy on more than one occasion of having attempted to consummate this “treasonable act, either through outrageous treaties or by capitulating to foreign imposition.” The resolutions also call on the nation by imposing its will on the monarch “to avoid such dishonor and crime."
