 We have examined into ten cases and have found six true bills as fol. lows: for murder, three; for grand lar ceny, one; for assault with intent to commit murder, one: aud for rescu- ing d prisoner, one
 We nave ignored two cases, refer red one to the next grand jury, and referred One back to the Justice of the Peace for further action in the matter. We have investigated the charges of alleged dedication on the part of ex.Sherf T. F. Brodrick and append hereto detailed report in the matter. Committees were appointed to examine the county jail and the various county offices and detailed reports of each con- mittee are here appended.
 The Grand Jury finds boy about niue years of age in the county jail confined with adult prisoners. The Grand Jury recommends that this boy be released immediately and it further recommends that the Board of Supervisors provide at once a place of confinement for prisoners Of ten der years which shall keep them apart from adult prisoners.
 The Grand Jury finds that the pub. lie records are kept in unsafe places. 1 It recommends most earnestly that | the Board of Supervisors take m- | mediate steps tO provide necessary and proper prot ectiOn for the public | records against fire and theft. IL is | the sense of the Grand Jury that this | matter cannot be too strongly urged | and it hopes that the Board of Super visors will act promptly on the recon. mendation.
 Respectfully,
 GEO w. ATKINSON
 Foreman Grand Jury. | TO THE FOREMAN OF THE GRAND JURY |
 We the undersigned committee | duly appointed by you to formulate report in the matter of the investi- gation of the accounts of ex-Sheriff | Thos Frederick, respectfully present the following:
 The Grand Jury has examined as fully and carefully as possible all evidence and witnesses presented to 1t or obrainable by it. in the above matter It finds that the keeping Of the accounts of the Sheriff's office un- der Brodrick's administration was loose, careless and repre hensible, re- sulting in clerical errors and making 1t difficult to determine the facts relat- ing to the public moneys. With the exception of four items the Grand Jury finds no evidence to support the charges which have been made against Brodrick. These items are as follows:
 l. Lulley Bros, Of Nogales: The evi- dence in this case proves that Lulley Bros operated two gambling tables during the months of November and December, 1900, for which no license money has been received by the county. Lulley Bros. are unable to show receipt. When a regular re- ceipt is issued for a license 1t is de- tached from stub which is left in the license receipt look. There is no stub unaccounted for.
 9 James Kane, of Crittenden: Testimony on behalf of Kane proves that he paid $40 10 cover saloon license for the two quarters ending December 3lst, l9OO and that he only received a receipt for S20 Of the amount paId S24 was remitted by ex- press and Sl6 was paid in hand to either Brodrick or W. J EKey, the deputy sheriff. Testimony was pro- duced to show that the money was actually handed to Frederick No record can be found of the receipt of the money by the county, and the I stubs in the receipt book show that no receipt was issued.
 Wm. T. Powers of Patagonla h. conclusive evidence was produced to show that Powers paid the full I amount of his license for 1900 with . the exception of BIO. MT. Powers
