 Jurors Organized.

: The grand jury of the United States Court for the Middle District of Alabama for the May term was regularly orga- nized yesterday by Judge Thomas C.. Jones with Judah T. Moses of Montgom- cry as foreman.
 At 10 o'clock the 70 Yez' of the court crier signalized the entrance of the Judge of the Court and the opening of the May term. The audience of attorneys and spectators rose, according to custom, be- ing their salutation to the court on its opening.
 Judge Jones immediately went into the organization of the grand jury. Tuesday on account of the absence of several ju- TOTS summoned and excuses by others, the grand jury lacked ten men of being complete. Yesterday the jury was filled by United States Marshal L. J. Bryan and the jury was regularly empanelled.
 Judge Jones as soon as all the jurors were seated called forward Judah T.. Moses of Montgomery and instructed the clerk to administer the oath of foreman to him. The oath. having been admins tered the rest of the jurors were sworn in body.
 The charge of the court was then de- livered. Judge Jones instructed the ju- TOTS as to the importance of their duties. I1e SduCIlIy OI OdLHS, run WhOiii they should receive information. the find ing of true bills. the distinction between misdemeanors and felonies and their con duct in and out of the jury room. while they were members of the grand jury.
