crime wherever it existed. and has found
thirty-sx indictments and we feel that the
of work accomplished by the grand jury Is
unwarranted and unjust
CAUSE FOR DISSATISFACTION.
The fact that gambling indictments did
not cut larger figure in the report is
subject of unfavorable comment in court
circles. Hundreds of witnesses were sum-
moned before the jury during the investi-
cation of the evil and that but one gambler
should have been indicted and he a man
who left for parts unknown, has occasioned
expressions Of dissatisfaction. "The diff
Guilty" said member Of the jury, clay in
the fact that no complaints, or very few,
were brought before us, and when presented
the witnesses would deny all knowledge of
the matter. Let us, for instance, suppose
a case like this: A party runs a gambling
house, and pays certain official an amount
of money for protection. He is protected /;
we know in our hearts that he Is protected,
and that he is not protected for love. But
let me ask how are we to prove the fact?
Only one way is possible, and that is to
get some Of the parties to such a contract
| to turn states evidence. We got just such
| a party and were in fair way to prove a
case when the court refused to compel our
witness to answer.
Referring to Judge Scotts statement that
| he was in possession of certain facts re-
garding the question of the gambling investi-
cation which convinced him that five of the
| jurors were protecting portion OF the
| gambling fraternity, one of the jury ad-
| mitted that there was no question but that
some one was giving information about the
doings of the jury, but he denied the pos
| sibility Of any one being able to give such
accurate information as this was alleged
| to be. -.
No little i'll feeling toward Judge Scott
is expressed by the members of the jury
They do not think they were fairly treated
or given credit by him for the immense
amount of work they did.
