THE ELLIOTT GRAND JURY
Chosen, and Not an Irishman ON liver
diet Anxiously Awaited.

Il
COLUMBUS, o., March 3.-Fifteen men
were selected this morning out OF the
panel of 20 made yesterday for grand
jury to investigate the Elliott murder.
and AT 1890 began examining witnesses.
OF the - iurymen sitting iO are from
the country ard from the city. The
Eliotts being IriShmen ii Is remarkable
that there is not an IriShman on this
jury. They are fine looking body Of
men, and there is a general feeling that
the case is In good hands. Several years
ago when overwhelming, convincing
evidence was submitted to grand jury,
with the object Of indicting Elliott for
malfeasance as supervisor Of State
printing, the jury threw the case aside.
1t was the general impression that the
jury was fixed. Hence there was the
greatest interest to-day 10 know the
personnel of the jury. The populace
is quiet now, but failure on the part OF
this jury To indict aS severely as the
case demands would instantly call
forth storm Of indignation. The
grand jury will probably report about
next Friday or Saturday.
