particularly prominent. Special interest
attached to the latter two. They insisted
that they were before the jury simply to
give evidence against Fred Bordeaux, the
assailant of helpless women.
Kurmweide on Hand.
Captain Henry Krumweide was
among those who appeared before
the grand jury this morning in an
swer to summons to testify in regard
to police matters. Captain Krumweide
said before going that he would volun-
teer no information but that he would
answer truthfully any questions put to
him.. So. ..
II expect to be. asked 5000 questions,
for understand. the grand jury knows
as much about police matters as / do
myself. When I leave the room they
will say that I have told the truth.
Inspector George A. Harvey is believed
to be indicted. The evidence has been
heard and indictments for perjury and So
Letting a bride are expected.
Carrie Emerson seems to be sure of an
Indictment and by the irony of fate it
will come through the testimony Of
Christopher c. Norbeck, the man she was
seeking to shield from pursuit; The
has had any communication with him
since Monday night. f
A report from the jury is expected late
this afternoon. AS Judge Simpson is en-
gagged on the King case, the jury will
probably be received by Judge Harrison.
Looking Into bling Pigs.
Mrs. Schubert, who is under indictment
charging her with running a blind pig at
Minnehaha :. avenue and Thirty sixth
street, is before the grand jury this AFTER
noon. It is the belief that she knows a
great deal about persons in the police de-
partment who have been receiving money
from violators Of the law who have re-
ceived protection from the police and that
she will tell what she knows. The ground
for this belief is the assumption that she
would not have been allowed to continue
the place she is under Indictment for run
ming had she not paid considerable money
into the hands of some Of Mayor Ames's
police officers. Who those men are, is
the question.
