4 BUN&LENG CASE
Worked Up by Grand Jury ny Advice
OF n Too Enthusiastic Assistant
AttOrney-SsvcFe Rebuke
by the Judge OF the
Court

ST LOUIS, February 24-It will be recol-
lected that few days ago these dispatches
noted the arrest Of Harrison Attaway, State
coal-oil inspector, by order of the grand jury,
and in what was regarded by all c'ssses IN
the most arbitrary manner, he being arrested
before an Indictment had been found against
him-without warrant. To-day the grand
jury closed their labors and made their report
to the criminal court. After the reading OF
their report, Judge Laughlin thanked
them for their general efficiency, out
referred to the arrest of Attaway, not
only as grave mistake, but a usurpation OF
power, which, if allowed to pass unrebuked,
would lead to the direst results. His censure
was very pointed and quite severe. At the
end of Judge Laughlin' S address, Dwight
Durkee, an old and prominent citizen, and a
member of the jury, stated to the court that
the jury had acted under the advice of the
assistant prosecuting attorney of the court,
and had not the slightest desire or design to
do the humblest citizen the slightest Injury.
The affair created considerable stir In court
and is the subject OF much comment on the
street and elsewhere.
