GRAND JURY READY TO REPORT
MORE PATERSON OFFICIALS SAID TO HAVE BEEN
INDICTED

MORE PATERSON OFFICIALS SAID To HAVE BEEN
INDICTED.
Tho feast Of the members OF the Passaic County
Grand Jury, which took place IN Paterson on
"Wednesday evening. gave rise to a rumor mat the
body had completed its labors, and would report
Yesterday afternoon. AS a consequence, there was
great deaf of talk about possible indictments ana
the names OF two officials were commonly men
tiored as being among those against whom the
Grand Jury had found true bills
One of these is Policeman Mulln. who Is charged
with false arrest and Imprisonment. Members OF
tho Grand Jury who have not the faculty OF Keeping
ouet have assured their friends that the Prose-
cutor of the Pleas had been Instructed TO draw up
an Indictment against Mullins. and from what they
say the case against the officer was extremely well
made out The circumstances or the case were
these: one night about two months ago colored
dance was In progress in hal. and Mullins. with
some friends went around and insisted on being adj
United for nothing. The dcorkeeper demuTred, ana
the policeman and his friends pushed their way in
and arrested two OF the men. The charge agains'
them was not sustained. and they entered charges
against the officer AS result he was Immediately
suspended and the case carried to the Grand
Jury
The other official who is said to have been in
dlcted is Freebooter Row. OF the Fifth Ward The
accusation against Row Is that he was mixed up in
an Illegal and eStravagant payment for repairs TO
the Barclay-st bridge over the canal This bridge
is notorious for the amount Of money II costs 10
keep II in repair, and those who testified in Rows
case are said to stated that the contractors
received 500 for furnishing and laying few planks
which under ordinary circumstances could not have
cost more than $50 1t was rumored that the con-
tractors had also been indicted for conspiracy but
little credencc given to this report.
As the Grand Jury's term nears IT'S cose the I'M
preston grows that Lay-Judge Van Hovenberg was
included In the list OF those who were indicted. \
gentleman who is on terms OF great intimacy with
a member of the Grand jury declares that ne mas
seen tally list Of the vote on the Van Hovenberg
case and that 1t stood l6 to in favor of an indci-
ment. He says that the other persons inter
ested with Judge Van Hovenberg In the property in
which Deutschens dive was located have been In
dlcted Since the vote was taken on the lndIct-
ment there have been maay efforts made TO Induce
the Grand Jurors to reconsider their action. Inc
ma jority was strong however, that the PROPOSE
ton has been turned down in most positive man
As yesterday the last day OF the term OF
court IL IS almost a certainty that when the Grand
Jury meets to-day II will present its report and ask
Judge Hopper to be discharged.
