The Doodle Investigation.

Chicago, March 26.-This afternoon
the investigation by tho grand jury took
took All unexpected turn, the inquiry
leading away for the time being from the
crooked aldermen to members of the
city board of education. Otis Jones,
heating apparatus manufacturer, was
called to explain how his firm received
nearly all the contracts. Jones was un-
der fire but few minutes when he
tainted. Great commotion ensucd among
the jurors, but the witness was revived
and the examination continued. Jones
testimony, if true, would seriously reflect
on ex State Senator w. B. Hereby, one of
the members of the board of education,
and Tanks Creiger. son of cX-Mayor
Creiger. Through Jones clerk, f. II.
Goodrich, now secretary Of the Mascou-
tab Kennel club, it was claimed that
about $1,000 had been paid to Hereby
and young Creiger: to the former to get
contracts, and to the latter to have
Hereby appointed by Mayor Creiger
Goodrich succeeded Jones on the witness
stand and declared Jones testimony ma
liciously false. Except Aldermen Bowler
and Michaelson none Of the many sus
poets we're indicted today. Bowler and
Michaelson each gave $4,000 bail.
Foreman Lieb of the grand jury is in
favor of special grand jury and is daily
urging the necessity of the same on the
states attorney. In speaking of the mat
ter Gen. Lieb said, II do not think the
jury is just what it ought to be for
handling such matters of great import
ance. If il is not done before, shall in
my report recommend the calling of a
special grand jury to complete the work.
"Do you think there is a leak in the
city,"
''Thercs not the slightest doubt about
it in my mind"
Gen. Lieb also gave as additional
reason for his belief that certain mem
bers of the jury were leaking. the fact
that he had detected them taking notes
of testimony.
