The grand jury took up their cases this after noon, but will hardly be ready to bring in a bill before this afternoon.
 Judge Curtis of the criminal Super for court assigned Judge Carl Foster to assist Attorney John Keogh as counsel for Balog, and Attorney John c. Chamberlain was assigned to help Attorney Linxweiler of South Norwalk in the defense of Joseph Szalia. At torrey Keogh is looking out for the interests of the other three prison CTS.
 Another case considered by the grand jury today is that of Antonio Collette of this city, charged with the murder of Pasquale Nespoli during a brawl in North Washington avenue. The members of the grand jury are: John M. Hawley and Thomas Arnold, IT,, of this city; Joseph G. Houghton and Edward Tupper of Stamfords Frank ripper and David A. Nichols of Huntington; Stephen T.

MAYOR AND AUDITOR
 HAD IDEA IN MIND
Heating and Buckingham Had Planned to Have Elk perts Investigate City's Methods of Bookkeeping Mayor to Name Com mittee.

Mayor Buckingham was asked today as to his ideas on the resolution in- troduced in the Common Council by Alderman Jackson, last evening, call ing for the appointment of a commit tee of five, consisting of the Mayor, the City Auditor and three Aldermen. to investigate the different systems of modern accounting, the same to cover the entire operations of cities of one hundred thousand population and over. The Mayor said:
 T am in hearty accord with the ob- Jects of the resolution. The matter has been in my mind for some time past and I intended in my annual message, at the first meeting in June, to make recommendation along these lines. It is in keeping with progres- siye municipal government Many of the large cities throughout the coun- try, which are the best governed and most advanced in the application of the most modern business ideas to their governments, have called in ex- perts to study and revise their finan- cial systems. In private enterprises, men have been devoting their efforts tn the study of scientific methods to obtain the best results in all branches of manufacturing and industrial con- corns.
 Great efficiency and great saving have been accomplished thereby. Like wise, specialists, have been devoting their attention to the most scientific methods of governing municipalities They have devised simpler but more effective methods of accounting and in the conduct of the finances of the city government, They have been called into many cities and have gone over the methods in vogue, have entirely revised them and substituted more ad- vanced and scientific ones. I think it would be an admirable thing to bring into Bridgeport specialists of this kind and let them examine our meth ods of conducting finances of the city and make such recommendations as they think might promote greater effi- ciency, economy and accuracy.
 'I am satisfied that for the ex- pense to the city, the returns would more than pay I believe that it is our duty in this growing and progress siye city to adopt any system or de- vice for the better government of the city, which we are financially able to procure. I have several times dis cussed this question with the city au- ditor and he has been heartily in favor of it. As I say, I expected to dwell at length on this matter in my an- nual message and the resolution in- troduced last evening simply antici- pates what proposed doing"
