GRAND JURY FAILS TO
REACH A CONCLUSION
Investigates Fire Commissioners
Award Of Horse Shoeing Con-
tract to Eddie Graney.

The Grand Jury yesterday failed to
reach a conclusion on the Fire Com
missioners' award Of the contract for
shoeing the horses of the Fire De-
partment TO Z. NJ Graney, who pre-
sented the only bid. The Fire Com
rnissfoners testified that Graney's bid
TO shoe horses for 81 so per head was
a reasonable one and that as he had
previously done this work for the city
in a satisfactory manner there was
no reason why he should not get the
contract The charter required that
the contract be given TO the lowest
bidder.
On the stand Graney said that the
award 70 him was a political "muxup"
and that politics went a long way in
the distribution OF contracts.
The Grand Jury postponed the case
Of George 7. Bsllinger until the next
week, when further testimony will be
taken Ballinger is-accused Of having
embezzled $3.50 from the California
Art Glass Bending and Cutting Works.

John G.. Klumpke is more than 80

others his children, represented by
Henry TreukamD, have petitioned the
Superior Court TO remove him from
his position as administrator of the
estate Of his deceased wife, A E G.
Bernardina Klumpke, who died No
vember 1. 1902. They allege that the
old man is feeble and has not looked
after the estate, which more than a
year and a half ago should have been
settled. They say. too, that Charles
Bergeson and Frank Bergeson brought
fraudulent claims against the estate
for s2336 and 317S1 respectively.
which Klumpke allowed, and they de-
clare that he is hostile to the heirs
and will make the expense of admins
tration as heavy as possible. Mrs.
