DEADLOCK OYER ICE.
Grand Jury Takes No ActiOn, Er-
cept to Call More WitnesseS.

The mot yet but soon situation of the ice in
vestigation by the grand jury was unchanged
yesterday and the long anticipated indictments
were not forthcoming. 1t was announced. how
ever. that the investigation is not ended. and
more witnesses will appear for examination.
There is apparently a deadlock in the grand
jury, some OF whom favor the bringing OF in
dictments against ice officials while others want
to submit only a presentment The calling Of
more witnesses is final effort OF those who
hold out for indictments TO obtain more con-
vincing and incriminati ting testimony to support
their stand.
Judge Rosalsky. it said, is much disap-
pointed the failure so far by the grand jury
TO agree on some definite action. The judge. Ber-
nard Karsch, foreman Of the jury, and Edward 7.
Hillyer. another juryman, held another confer
ence yesterday, during which Judge Rosalsky
handed Mr.. Karsch bundle Of papers relating
to the ice investigation. Some Of these dOcu-
ments were transcripts of evidence given in
civil suits against the American Ice Company.
