INDICTED were two of Nixon's former top aides, onetime Atty. Gen. John Mitchell and past Com- merce Secretary Maurice Stans. * SHAKEN-UP was the already shaken administration of President Nixon. Democratic 'turncoat John Connally came back into the ad- ministration as an unpaid advisor to the President. CIA boss James Schlesinger was named by Nixon as Secretary of Defense. *.ON THE OTHER SIDE of the nation, the Pentagon Papers trial became the scene of yet another stunning development as Judge Matthew Byrne announced that, de- spite -government pledges to the contrary, defendant Daniel Ellsberg was overheard on -.n illegal FBI wiretap. * DISMANTLED was Nixon's "super cabinet," a group of key ad- visors with interdepartmental re- sponsibility. * JOHN DEAN, former White House counsel, charged there was a conspiracy to silence him and pre- vent testimony linking the President to the string of shady deals in the Watergate affair. WASHINGTON d' - President Nixon shuffled personnel to fill Watergate-created White House vacancies yesterday as a federal grand jury indicted two of his former Cabinet members for fi- nancial irregularities in last year's re-election campaign. The President recalled new Repub- lican John Connally from 'private life to be a special adviser and named CIA Director James Schle- singer as Secretary of Defense. AS THIS WAS happening, evicted White House lawyer John Dean charged some- one is out to keep him from telling the full truth about Watergate and attempts to cover up the scandal. He said there are efforts to discredit what he has to say. John Mitchell, who headed the re- election campaign until two weeks after the Watergate break-in, and Maurice Stans, the campaign's chief fund raiser, were charged with conspiring to arrange a secret $200,000 contribution to the elec- tion effort. Also indicted by the grand jury in New York were a New Jersey Republican leader, Harry Sears, and Robert Vesco, former board chairman of International Controls Corp., who made the donation. "THERE HAS BEEN no wrongdoing on my part," said Mitchell,;once Nixon's close associate and law partner. "I am certain that the judicial proceedings in this case will fully vindicate and confirm the absence of any wrongdoing." Mitchell, who arrived at the Capitol to be questioned by Senate investigators yesterday afternoon, said the indictment was "one of the most irresponsible acts -I ever heard of coming out of the Justice Department" which he formerly headed. Meanwhile, a statement by convicted Watergate conspirator James McCord has named Mitchell as the person who gave the go-ahead in the Watergate operation. THE McCORD DEPOSITION was taken in connection with the Democrats' $6.4 million civil suit against the Committee for the Re-election of the President and others See JUDGE, Page 10 AP Photo DANIEL ELLSBERG and his wife Pat approach the Federal building in Los Angeles yesterday.
