and Charles Miller Killed John
Miskus mt Tripp's Crossing Last
March..Large Number Of Ignored
Bills Returned TO the Court.

Bills Returned TO the Court.
The grand jury presented its final re-
port yesterday morning. They ignored
the Indictment for murder against Jo-
seph Grescha and Charles Miller for the
death of John Miskus. True bills were
returned against the young men VINO
were concerned with Maggie Conway,
Of Nealis court. in enricing little girls
into her resort of infamy. The jury
also reported the following recon-
mendations:
First-We recommend that the COM
missoners provide another room with
twelve cots and mattresses for petit
jurors.
Second-We also find the roof Of the
court house in a very bad condition and
recommend it be given immediate atten-
| tion.
Thrd-We would respectfully recon-
mend that the county commissioners AT
| the proposed remodelling Of the court
house. provide the court stenographers
with a larger Office than the one now oc-
cupied by them. The stenographic notes
of the testimony which 1t Is necessary
| for them to preserve are rapidly accumu-
| latng. and 1t will be but u short time be-
| fore the room now occupied will be en-
| tirely inadequate to contain these records
We would recommend, therefore, that
| larger office be provided for the stenogra-
piers and that a suitable vault be placed
| therein for the purpose of properly pre-
serving these important records.
| Fourth-We also recommend the placing
of telephone in the Office of the district
attorney as the business Of the office de-
| mands It,
We also wish to return our sincere
| thanks to the district attorney for his kind
attention and assistance during our ses-
| sion.
We find the Jail in good state of health
| and commend the officers ON the neat
hess of the building and grounds.
