VANDERBILT DIDN'T COME
To-day's Grand Jury Likely to Deal
nth Garfield Case.

Although according to the statements given
out at the house of his mother-in-law Mrs.
Frederic Nelson. Reginald C. Vanderbilt neither
came to town yesterday, was expected, nor
was served with any subpoena in the Canfleld
gambling case. The June grand jury to be
sworn to-day, will probably be called on to deal
with the case against Mr.. Garfield. The grand
jury which will be sworn by Judge Newburger
in General Sessions Court will also have to deal
with the poolroom cases.
Reports to the contrary Notwithstanding,
those who have talked with the District At
torney do not believe Mr.. Jerome is suspend
ing the calling of witnesses who may know
what occurred in the Forty-fourth-st. gambling
house until the higher court shall give its de-
cison the refusal of Jesse Lewisohn to an
swer certain questions propounded before the
grand jury. The argument the writ of certi-
orari obtained from Justice Dugro will be made
before the Appellate Division of the Supreme
Court Tomorrow Should the decision be
against Lewisohn, Alfred Lauterbach. his
lawyer, may carry the case to the Court of
Appeals.
Mr. Jerome however was quoted recently as
avowing his disbelief that this would be done,
Mr.. Lauterbach would consider such action
to be of avail. Should Mr. Lauterbach share
this view. Mr.. Lauterbach's client would have
no option other than to purge himself of con-
tempt by answering all questions put 10 him.
and others would probably follow suit. In this
event the whole matter might be placed before
the next grand jury, and the many men for
whom subpPnas were issued recently be asked
to hold themselves in immediate readiness.
These men include John w. Gates, John A.
Drake. James NJ. Waterbury, jr., Eberhard
Faber Sarsfield Lavelle, Joseph Israels and
William Z. Peck
AS told already in The Tribune. Mr.. Canheld's'
,counsel have denied that he had offered to
plead guilty provided he merely fined an
nouncinG that he was ready to appear at an
hours notice whenever wanted. 1t is intimated
that should he be indicted the contention that
no connection can be shown between Garfield
and the proprietorship of the Forty fourth-st
house will form the principal line of defence.
Mr.. Jerome. who is expected back in town from
Lakeville, Conn. this morning, would not dis
cuss last night Mr. Vanderbilt's reported move
ments or any phase of the Garfield situation
Although 1t was announced yesterday that Mr.
Vanderbilt free from any misgivings as to pro-
cess servers on the Sabbath, might pay a flying
visit after = m, Tribune reporter was for

bilt had neither arrived nor would arrive that
