ATTORNEY EP0ME
Is AFTER THE FACTS

New York, Aug. 3.-District Attor-
ney Jerome told Justice Davis in the
criminal branch of the New York state
supreme court during the day that he
might need special grand jury to in
vesttgate the Equitable Life Assurance
society's affairs before the legislative
committee has finished its investiga-
ton of life insurance conditions which
is>soon to begin. The court has been
kept sitting to await possible action
by Mr.. Jerome. He informed it during
the Gay that he was not certain
whether he would want the special
grand jury or not, but requested the
court to adjourn to Sept. II, which it
did. In the meantime, he said, any
justice of the court could grant the or
der for special jury. s
In making the request for an ad-
journment Mr.. Jerome said:
@As result of the investigations of
the state superintendent of insurance,
which called attention to the condition
OF the Equitable company, have dis
covered in the Investigation an
Extraordinary State Of Affairs
which affects not only this country but
all parts of the world. Transactions
have been of such a character on their
face that they require investigation by
the district attorney of this county.
The state superintendent of insurance
is not a prosecuting officer and the in
yestigation he conducted was not with
q view Of finding whether the COM
pany had conducted its business in q
criminal manner. While the investiga-
ton Of the superintendent covered a
wide field there were points that were
inadequate for prosecuting officer
for the purpose of prosecution. Since
reading the testimony / have made
some investigation and inquiries for
myself and as q result Of them further
Inquiry is necessary and important In
my own investigation.
= Mr. Jerome added that the legisla-
tive Investigating committee would APP
gprpach' the subject about as did the
saoerint endent Of INSURANCE.

New Orleans, Aug. 5.-The yellow
fever situation in the South is not so
favorable, high temperatures and
heavy rains in New Orleans, the center
of infection, not only producing unfa-
vorable climatic conditions but undo
ing much that had been accomplished
in the past twenty-four hours in the
way of oiling cutters, cisterns and
ponds and causing this work to be
done over. The authorities have conf
dence in their ability to control the
situation and the developments of the
past twenty-four hours, they maintain,
were nothing more than was to be ex-
pected in, the progress of the plague.
Passenger and freight traffic on the
railroads in and out of New Orleans is
practically paralyzed. All suburban
service to coast towns was discontin-
ued week ago and almost daily the
railways have been dropping one CT
more trains until the service on most
Of the lines is at its minimum.
There were no developments during
the day in the controversy over the al
legged invasion of Louisiana by Missis-
sippi troops guarding the frontier. ex-
cept the announcement from Jackson
that Governor Vardaman had decided
to 60 personally to the scene and in
vestigate the conditions for himself.
The governor acted on receipt Of a
telegram of complaint from Governor
Blanchard. Before leaving Jackson
Governor Vardaman said he desired to
make no statement until his investiga-
ton of the matter had been finished.
Mobile has frightened its protective
Gordon and has ordered, in addition t.
disinfection, detention of five dayn
for all boats coming from Central and
South American ports.
Texarkana, on the line between Ar
kansas and Texas, has ordered dis
continuance of all trains between
Shreveport, La, where case has ap-
peared, and Texarkana.
Arkansas as well as Mississippi is
using it's militiamen as quarantine off,
GERS and has stationed them at various
points to prevent the landing of people
from infected districts.

All our tide water docks and freight offices l are on the east side of these proposed hills, while the city is spread out for ! miles on the west side. Everything received by boat or rail, and everything shipped from our city must be carted i over these hills.

 I think their accuracy will not be 1 disputed, as my friend Mr. Watrous submitted them to his engineers, and, 1 if remember correctly, their decision | was that the line shown at the corner of Chapel and Union streets was three inches only higher than the proposed roadway.

midsummer. No less than ten peti- tfons sprang up from different sections of the city, and every ward in the cen ter of the city was represented, remon, strating against the raising of these bridges.
 While several hundred interested property holders and citizens protested by their words and their presence against the raising of these bridges and increasing the already steep grades; while many disinterested ex- cept as citizens, including Yale profess sors, sent communications protesting against a grade to exceed three per cent, stating that: the grades asked for by the railroad company would result in wear and tear upon vehicles, horses and harness, and an increased cost of either hauling half loads for full team or a double team for full load over these hills, and would cost the public morefin one year than the mod flied improvements proposed by City Engineer Kelly and planned for reduc- ing the grade to three per cent, which grade is the grade recommended by the board of aldermen of the city of New Haven.
 Everybody seemed desirous of grant
 ing the privilege ito the railroad compa- ny, including the railroad commission CTS themselves. The only difference between the psople and the railroad
 commissioners is that the property owners and citizens wished to have their streets left in as good condition as at present New Haven was selected as a site for city by it's founders on aeeountof the lewsl space. The grades already acquired are steep enough and ? have been acquired without authority
 and ought to be lowered two feet in-
 stead of raised two feet, as the two feet already acquired happened when the people were asleep and the railroad
 people were awake The day that the , decision was rendered by the railroad
 commissioners, if they could have seen
 the embarrassments and difficulties
 that existed at that time, when ice and snow was upon the ground, I do not believe there had been an hour in the day for one week that some horse was not down or some team unable to draw l its load of merchandise over the Chap el street bridge, that l have had the misfortune to overlook or to be adja- cent to for more than forty years, and have seen horses drop dead endeavor- | ing to draw the load over the present grading.

GENERAL FORD'S ADDRESS

Cut.o
 General For1's address before the "Wednesday concerning the Consolidat-l ed Railroad company's proposed change of the layout of the company's tracks in the cut in this city Is as follows:
 The situation has been so clearly expressed and the conditions So con- cisely described by the corporation counsel of the city of New Haven, and conveys the facts developed at ten pub lie hearings before the aldermanic com mittee on roads and bridges, and the discussions and conclusions arrived at by the board of aldermen of the city of New Haven upon this subject, that it seems hardly necessary to burden the members of this committee with fur ther testimony or occupy your time, when you have so many matters of im- portance before you for consideration.
 This is matter of tremendous im- portanee that it is impossible for par- ties interested on either side, from drawings, words or statements to com prehend the actual results implied. x OUCH d IUlIlS GUS TdiSluS lue IUdQWdy in the streets in the center of a city of thesizeof New Haven. I do not believe in the history of railroading ever oc- cured. The raising of Union street for two blocks up in the air to allow the railroad to run underneath, and asking the city for such a privilege is asking too much. If such a privilege were asked of the corporation, am quite sure they would feel in duty bound to decline, Yet this petition was brought and these hearings were ordered in the month of August, creating a feeling in the community that such an impor- tant subject had been sprung upon the public at the season when those most interested were absent from home. Some were unkind enough to say that there was a significance attached to ! this fact, that the railroad commission CTS, although requested by the corpora ton counsel for a postponement insis- ted upon the hearing going forward in
