GRAND JURY NOT
DONE WITH ROBBERY

SALT LAKE. May 21.-The
grand jury appointed by the
} United States court five weeks
ago made a partial report of its
investigation yesterday. The
jury returned eight indictments,
J seven of which are made public.
J 1t is said that the eighth indict-
J ment has to do with land fraud
} and involves Illegal fencing.
The jury's report did not
touch the inquiry into the rob-
berry of the Utah National bank
in January, when $10c,250 was
stolen from the reserve chest.
On this case the jury has been
working more than four weeks
and has had before 1t large
} number of witnesses who have
gone into the affairs of the
bank, those connected with It ut
present and those who were !
} connected with 1t in the past.
On June IS, in conformity
} with the permission granted by
, Judge John A. Marshall, the
} jury will resume the hank rcb-
} hery inquiry. Meanwhile the
} district attorney will continue
, to gather evidence that will he
. submitted. It il evnected that
, many more witnesses will h"
, summoned and that these will
, not all be local witnesses.

sumed in reading the report.
The Connecticut members joined
in voting against the resolution by
which the house adopted the conclu-
sions of the committee as its own.
Mr.. Williams of Mississippi denounc-
ed Mr.. Lilley as being guilty of trea-
son, for which he said he should be
expelled. 1t was a noticeable fact
that the five members of the special
committee, Messrs. Boutell, Ohm
sted, Stevens. Broussard and How
ard, sat together throughout the pro-
ceedings, and that none of them sub
mitted any remarks in connection
with the report.

the settlement of the estate of James
McDougal in which J. l.. Smith is
administrator, was indicated yester-
day by the filing of written objec-
ton to the court accepting Smiths
final accounting and releasing. him
from liability. as he wishes. The
protest is filed by Mrs. Jeanette Nc
Dougal. While not specifying sums,
Mrs. MeDougal's petition declares
that the final accounting does not
show proper charges against the es-
tate and does not show all the assets
which ought to be in the hands of
the administrator. 1t therefore asks
that his statement be not accepted
until II is amended and presented in
the proper form.
About month ago Mrs. MeDougal
filed petition that Smith be re-
moved from his position as admins
traitor for the estate and that she be
appointed In his place. At that time
she alleged that he had taken vari-
Gus actions practically rendering him
liable on peculation charges. Smith
filed counter petition asking that he
be granted guardianship of Willie
Thomas, the grandson of Mrs. Nc
DougaI, as she was not proper per-
son to have charge. He alleged the
child was not receiving the care he
should have. At the time the matter
came up before Judge Brown. how
ever, H. seemed that it would be
amicablv settled, the court ordering
that upon acceptance of the final ac-
counting of Smith he be released

EXAMINATION
Twenty Out of Twenty-fiv
Men Stand Physical
Test.

Twenty-Five men yesterday took the
examination for switchmen and brake
men on the Baltimore & Ohio road, at
DR.. Hughes office in the Lincoln build
ing.
OF the twenty-five men that took the
examination twenty passed with flying
colors. Recently the Baltimore & Ohio
road began putting their older en-
ployes on the pension list and now men
are being pushed in their places.
Speaking of the matter yesterday,
DR.. e. ]. Hughes. the local examining
physician, said: In thinning out the
old-timers the road is doing a good
thing, as it lessons the danger of ac-
cidents that formerly have been oc-
curing with an alarming rapidity in
various branches of the system"
According to DR.. Hughes dope it will
be matter of only a few weeks until
the Baltimore & Ohio system will have
been given a thorough renovation and
the old men will be put on the pension
list to spend the remainder of their
days without work.

a chorus composed of young women
