here continues to be about the sum-
mary of the grand jury by Judge Per-
son. But two grand juries have been
summoned in this county in thirty
years, hence the sensation, The jury
will go to the bottom Of charges that
have been made of bribery during the
last session of the legislature. One Of
the principal bills in connection with
which 1t is charged that money was
used Is that authorizing the city Of
Detroit to purchase it's street railway
system. Another required all street
cars to be equipped with air brakes,
while third contemplated q vast ex-
penditure for the purpose of placing a
full set Of all state reports in each
county In the state.

The two last named bills were killed,
but the former became a law. The
defeat Of the bill to repeal the law pro-
viding closed season for fishing in
the great lakes also created a scandal.

ACTING MAYOR S0LIGNAC RESIGNS.
The Whole Burden of City Administration
Had Fallen on His Shoulders and He
Could Not Sacrifice His Law
Practice.

Acting Mayor Solignac called a spe-
cial meeting last night of the city coun-
Gil, to consider his resignation as pres
ident of the council and alderman from
ward A. Mr. Solignac stated that the
burden of the municipal administration
had fallen on his shoulders since the
inability of Mayor Hudson to attend to
the duties of the office through serious
illness, and the burden, especially in the
present eXigency, was altogether too
heavy. 1t was interfering with his law
practice seriously. and he was unwilling
to continue further.
The council at first declined to accept
Mr.. Solignac's resignation, but as he in
sisted on it, and declared he would no
longer carry the burden of the office,
the resignation was accepted, and the
vacancy created by such resignation
was filled by the choice of Mr.. Liberato
Baca, at present the chief clerk Of the
house of representatives.

ToDAY's BUSINESS.
IN THE HOUSE.

A bill introduced by Hon, William Kill
patrick to provide for geological sur

of mill for the maintenance Of the
same, was passed.
A bill to create preparatory schools in

tions of learning, which measure carries
an appropriation of 81 200 for each coun-
ty, was passed.
The educational bill pending was
tabled and a substitute prepared by the
committee discussed in committee Of the
whole house and passed.
When the bill to make a tax levy for
the maintenance of geological survey
came before the legislature Hon. A. D.
Mcintosh made an excellent speech in
favor of the measure. He elaborated on
the fact that New Mexico has never
been thoroughly advertised and that a
geological survey would prove the sort
Of advertising to carry conviction with
investors. The result of the survey
would be the thorough development Of
the mining resources and he thought
that the bill If passed would be of more
benefit to the territory than any meas
ure yet passed by the legislature. Hon.
VIM. Fitzpatrick, introducer of the bill,
delved into past history and pointed out
the good accomplished for Colorado by
geological surveys and stated that in
