$l02, 500 was used ia influencing legis.
lation, the source of the money and
the dispensers of it are to be the focus
of the grand jury's attention tomor.
row morning. A considerable portion
of the big bride fund is charged to
certain banks that sought to get city
deposits. They succeeded, but it is
the desire of the grand jury, as pro-
nounced in its report of Friday last,
that the bank deposits ordinance be
rescinded and the banks, if found
guilty, be deprived of the use OF city
money. 1t is known that some repre-.
sentatives of the banks are to be
called tomorrow to testify.
While the big show continues there
is q lively side feature in q crusa de
against all varieties OF graft and
wrongdoing in Pittsburg. Disorderly
houses are being closed up and every
night lately there has been q roundup
OF women in the tenderloin district.
At q meeting of citizens In the Fort
