TROUBLE, TOO, FOR JURY
Inactivity May Cause Governor
Hughes TO Prosecute Its
Members

Schenectady n. Y, June 3.-For-
mer Republican Sheriff Merritt Ham,
mond is a fugitive under indictment
for felony and the clerk and three
members of the present Board of Su-
pervisors, the ex-Chairman and eight
ex-members of the board, the ex-Su-
perintendents of Construction and
Repair, and the eX-Superintendent of
County Roads are under indictment
as results of the investigation order
ed by Gov. Hughes.

arrested yesterday afternoon and ar
raigned bef re Justice Van Kirk in
/ the Supren Court Each gave bail
for tria' June 10. Philip Moulderick

The Indictments are for INSIDE

IL is ruL cred that ever since the
jury was IL session, from May 16.
prominent politicians have been in
close touch with them aid used every
EFFORT to persuade the jurros in find
ing indictments which could be dis
posed of with light fines. Special
Prosecutor Virgil X. Kellogg of Wat
ertown has done his best to indict for
felonies, but results indicate that he
has not been very successful.
Gov. Hughes, who ordered the in
yestigation, has taken a great interest
IN the matter, and IL is possible that
he Will order steps taken to prosecute
the jurors for failing in their duty.
This controversy between the jurors
and the Prosecutor caused an ad-
journment last week of the jury until
Wednesday of this week
Fifty indictments were returned by
the jury for the arrest of at least
twenty-five persons. The Sheriff has
arrested only sixteen, but he has war
rants for the others, ard expects to
capture them before court convenes a

HOW ABOUT BASEBALL
Barre and Montpelier Will Try Out
Local FEELING


The first symptoms of the reviving
OF the old Northern league will show
up next Saturday when a team from
this city and one from Barre will
clash at lntercity park under the
management of Arthur w. Daley. who
has been doing much this spring tow
ard starting a baseball feeling in
the state The teams meeting Satur-
day are the strong Barre lndepen-
dents and the yet untried Montpelier
team, the Hibbards. If these games
prove interesting and those between
the Rutland representatives and Bur
lington likewise meet with favor at
the hands of the sports then there is
a strong probability that steps will
be taken. towards forming some kind
of a league between the four cities A
public meeting was held in Rutland
last week for the purpose Of financing
a home team there but the matter
was held off until Burlington, Barre
and Montpelier make q move.-Mont-
