WHOM HOUSE SUMMONED
Grand Jury Investigating Charge of
Legislative Bribery in
Massachusetts,.

Boston. May 9.-Following the defeat of
the anti-bucket shop bill in the house
branch of the legislature recently several
representatives were alleged TO have as
serted outside the house that they were
offered money to vote against the measure
The matter was brought to the attention
of District Attorney John B. Moran, who
in turn laid IL before the grand jury, and
the representatives who were said to have
made the charges were called before that
body.
Today Mr.. Moran announced his inten-
ton OF Summoning before the grand jury
the entire membership of the legislature
in connection with the case. Already
summOnSeS have been issued for seventy
five members OF the general assembly.
During the day the house committee on
rules started of its own accord an in
vestigatiOn of the bribery allegations.
The anti-bucket shop bill was passed
by the senate, but was defeated in the
house after one of the most bitter con-
tests in the history of the general assem-
bly,. IT would have made all bucket shops,
sO-called, illegal in Massachusetts.
