Rescinded TyIer's Contract.

The county commissioners have decided
that there is nothing worthy of investiga-
ton in the charges that the firm of Coffin,
Fletcher & Co. and James H. Coffin were
indebted to the county for a large amount
of property withheld from the tax assessor.
Last spring the commissioners entered into
a contract with ex-Deputy Assessor Tyler.
who averred that he could produce large
amount of taxable property that had never
been put the duplicate. He was to re-
ceiye 5 per cent of the amount collected on
ali such taxables disclosed. Lately the
commissioners learned that Tyler had in
mind the Coffin & Fletcher property. At
he session of the board yesterday the con-
tract was rescnded.

GRAND JURY ADJOURNED.
Fifty-Seven Indictments Returned
During a Ten Days, Session.


The Marion county grand jury adjourned
yesterday, having returned fifty-seven in
dictments during the ten days session. The
last batch of indictments found by the body
were as follows: Charles WALL grand lar
ceny; James Woods. petit larceny; Albert
Hoffman, grand larceny; Joseph Bell OBJ
tanning money under false pretenses; Mary
Walker petit larceny; Frederick Holland,
grand larceny; James Hardy, house break
ing; Albert Gray and William Maxton, petit
larceny. Amos Dean, Albert Johnson and
Eugene Bennett were discharged because of
insufficient evidence to indict.
The grand jury found true bill against
Joseph Bell, colored for obtaining money
under false pretenses The specific charge
upon which Bell was indicted was for the
alleged fraudulent collection of money from
Hiram p. WATSON. 1t was charged that
Bell, under the guise of a minister repre-
scented himself as pastor of one OF the
colored churches. He asserted that his
church was badly in debt and that $500 of
the Indebtedness was being carried by Geo.
L. Knox. "A number of books found in the
possession of the prisoner showed his scheme
had been a profitable one. He denied the
charge that he was an imposter, and boldly
maintained his ministerial air throughout
the Investigation.
The Jury did not complete the investiga-
ton of the case of Nellie Cleggett, the col
ored woman charged with the murder of her
infant. 1t was deemed advisable by the
prosecutor to continue the investigation url-
fill the February session of the jury.
