CORONER CALLS JEROME A LIAR.
NJ. J. JACKSON ATTACKS HIM AND MEDICAL
socrETy-LATER MoDIFIEs HIS WORDS.

NJ J JACKSON ATTACKS HIM AND MEDICAL
soCIETY-LATER MoDIFIEs HIS WORDS.
coroner NJ J. Jackson was angry yesterday when
his attention was directed to remarks concerning
the coronersr office attributed 10 District Attorney
Jerome which printed in morning news
paper Mr.. Jerome quoted as saying that the
coroners Office haven Of political ringsters,
that IT was useless and did more TO aid the escape
of criminals than bring them TO justice He said
that IL cost S500O0 year, while all the work it did
could be more satisfactorily done for $4,000.
Mr. Jerome is liar" declared Mr. Jackson
He's crazy if he made such assertions Jerome
don't know how TO run the District Attorneys
Office and, furthermore the District Attorneys
Office ought TO be abolished. The coroneTs' office,
shown in the past, is Of more value to the
public and the public interest than the District
Attorneys Office. 1t has done more efficient service
and has been upheld by the Supreme Court in many
more instances than has the District Attorneys
Office ] think If the District Attorneys Office
turned to the charge of the coroners cases
would be disposed Of with greater dispatch than the
District Attorneys office IS disposing Of them. And
as the County Medical Society and the State
Medical Association. both are bands Of anarchists"
He went 10 say that the trouble with the
medical societies was that they did not know any
thing about the coroners' office. He said that IN
1886 when he was a member of the County Medical
Society. he signed a petition to the Governor that
the coroners Office be abolished at the urging OF
at their solicitation supposing that they had in
vestgated the affair Later he made an investiga-
tion for himself. he said and found that the func
tions Of the office invaluable to the public.
District Attorney Jerome would not comment on
what Coroner Jackson had said, and when the lat
ter was told Of the fact, he remarked
Jerome doesn't dare TO say anything He's con-
founded idiot"
Last evening after having read the evening
papers, Coroner Jackson said that he wished TO
modify certain expressions attributed to him He
said:
What ] wished TO say was: II l correctly
Informed TO Mr. Jerome's statement. then he
what true When ! used the word
anarchists in the interview IL was in connection
with neither the County nor State Medical societies
but referred entirely separate organiza ton
Coroner Jackson admitted that one of the state
meuts attributed TO hum was accurate. 1t as
follows:
Why Mr.. Jerome is a COMPOUNDED idiot If he
made that statement about regulating the coroners
office. The Board of COroners could run his Office
better than he is running 1t now. He ought TO at
tend his own business"
