EUREKA COUNTY GRAND JURY

The Sentinel has the following
regarding the Eureka county grand
jury:
Saturday afternoon at LAS
o'clock the Grand Jury filed into
court, and on being called by the
clerk all answered to their names.
~Thereupon the Judge asked the
foreman if the Grand Jury had any
report to make. The foreman an
swered yes, and handed to the court
certain reports. Thereupon the
court ordered the clerk to file each
and all of said reports and findings,
and made the following order:
1T is ordered that the clerk issue
all necessary bench warrants on
the application of the district at
torney for the arrest of each and
all persons mentioned in certain
findings of the grand jury filed in
court this day."
The district attorney o and
asked that the grand jury be not
discharged at this time, because
he believed that there are other
matters which should be called to
the grand jury's attention, and also
stated that he would not ask for
bench warrants to be issued at this
time.
Thereupon the court said, that
it was unusual to postpone the is
suance of bench warrants for an
indefinice period. However, the
statute devolve on the district at
torney the duty Of conducting any
and all prosecutions which may be
necessary by reason of the action of
a grand jury. The district or pro-
scouting attorney is supposed to be
familiar with the details and re-
quirements of each ease in his keep
ing and to know the proper course
to pursue in the interest of justice
and the enforcement of the law.
The court has no right to dictate
nor even to suggest the proper action
to take in such matters, and it is
not going to do so; but the court
wants it to be understood, and to
be made of record, that neither
the judge nor the court shall be
held responsible for any course of
action which may be pursued by the
district attorney Of Eureka County
in the discharge of his official duty
in relation to the matters and things
at present before U.S."
The court then excused the grand
jury subject to the call of the fore
man thereof. or the order of the
court.
AS will be seen by the above pro-
ceedings, indictments have been
found by the grand jury, but as the
district attorney has asked that no
bench warrant be issued at present
for the arrest of the indicted parties,
these indictments, as we'll as the re.
port of the grand jury have been
placed in the custody of the county
clerk and are not obtainable for
publication at this time.
While no mention is made that the
the failure of the Eureka County
Bank, 1t is generally understood
that the indictments above referred
to are against the head officials OF
! the Eureka County Bank.
