GRAND JURY WILL
ADJOURN TODAY
Concludes It's Investigations
and Viii Submit Final
Report.

The grand jury yesterday afternoon
concluded it's investigation of the al
legged protected immortality and graft
In st. Paul, and a final report on the
result. Of the investigation, together
with other work done by the grand
juryj will be made to Judge Bum this
afternoon.
The report. it is stated, will not in
Guide anything bordering on sensation
alism, since the evidence furnished the
BODY by pastors and others who were
called upon to supply information, is
said not to have been sufficiently def
mite to warrant indictments being is
sued, or even scathing report regard
ing the conduct OF city officials.
Ministers called before the Jury are
said to have been closely questioned,
and While they had many suggestions
to offer, it is said that none Of them
was able to make sworn statements of
specific cases, which would be neces-
sary to secure indictments.
After much of this evidence had
been received, and it was found that
the information was not of such a ma
ture that it'would be of any assistance
in the prosecution Of the cases, the
grand jury yesterday decided to call
the investigation at an end, and the
final adjournment will take place to-
day. s1 ss'.i-tt
Was Voluntary Inmate.
Several witnesses were before the
grandejury yesterday, including a wom-
an who was brought forward as a per-
son who had been detained in a disor-
derby house on Jackson street for sew
eral months against her will, and while
it was shown that the woman had been
an inmate of the place, it was also
discovered by close questioning that
she had been permitted to leave the
place when she desired to, and that
upon one or two occasions, once at
Fort Smelling, she had been arrested
for misconduct while outside the Jack
son street resort.
Several young men from the Y. M.
G. A, who some time ago made an in
vestigation of gambling in the city,
were called before the jury, and whiia
one Of them is said to have told the
jury that he once witnessed a policy
drawing, about a year ago, he could
not state just what the location was
or the name Of the persons connected
with 1t.

Mrs. Johnson and her daughter were
on their way home, having been de-
tanned at friends house. The night
was dark and they were hurrying
along when they passed a man who
appeared to have emerged from bush

which they did. He then demanded
their money, threatening to shoot if
they refused to comply with his order.
Terrified, Miss Johnson screamed

women then emptied their purses of
the money, amounting to SIS, and the

COMMUNICATION OF BOARD.
To the Honorable Mayor and City
Council, Newberry, S. c.:
Gentlemen: At the meeting OF
the board of heath OH January s,
1904, the following resolution was
passed:
"Inasmuch as the mayor and city
council have appointed two (e) new
members of the board Of health to
serve five years each, thereby con-
stituting a board of health of six (6)
members; and, whereas, the official
census of 1900 gives the population
o! the city as less than 5000 inhab-
itants; be it
Resolved, That the Board of

service of said board"
Respectfully submitted,

Newberry, January II.
REPLY OF CITY ATTORNEY.
Dr.. P. G.. Ellesor, Chairman Board
Health, Newberry, S. c.:
Dear Sir: The communication of
your board Of January nth, through
your secretary, to the mayor and
city council, has been referred to
me for reply, and I beg leave to
say:
I. That the constitution of South
Carolina provides that no person
shall hold two Offices Of profit or
honor at the same time. The gen.
eral assembly created the Office OF
member of the board Of health.
Your board of health by resolution
created the Office Of secretary.
That resolution was afterwards
made an ordinance by the town
council, thereby creating the office
Of secretary of your board at sal
ary of $1,000 per mouth. There
fore, no one can hold the position OF
member of the board of health, aud
secretary of the board at one and
the same time.
Consequently, Mr.. Cabaniss is
not a member of the board Of health,
and your board has but FIVE mem
bers. Very respectfully,
Cole L. Blease.
City Attorney.
