Grand Jury Will Uncover Nest Of

Says Attorney.

DANVILLE, Ill, Jan. ,21.-That the

cal corruption. was made evident to-

lily and present a book, in which he
has kept the names OF all the persons
whose votes he has purchased and
the amounts paid them.
1t Is believed that the appearance
OF this man before the grand jury will
be followed by Wholesale confessions
OF the persons he duplicates and that
each OF them will name several other
voters who have sold their ballots.
The county officials still maintained
today thai they expected that be-
tween $500 and 1000 voters would be
disfranChised as a result OF the probe.
Isaac Woodward, the foreman OF the
grand jury, declared today he expected
to invoke The law regarding criminal
conspiracy as well as the law as to
the buying and selling Of votes. Under
the laws governing vote selling, the
grand jury cannot investigate acts
further back than lS months, while
under the criminal conspiracy act, 1t
can go back as far as three years.

Judge Kimbrough, who ordered the
investigation, Mayor Platt, States Az

numerous other state, city and county

is no charge that any OF these men

ANNEXATION IS
OFF FOR PRESENT
Supervisors Can't Hold Meeting To
Arrange for Vote On Taking in
Highland Park.

Assistant Prosecutor Aldrich, in the
absence of the prosecutor. gave an
opinion, Friday, to the effect that the
board of county supervisors cannot
legally hold a special meeting be-
tween now and the spring elections
for the purpose OF arranging for the
proposed vote on the annexation OF
Highland Park to Detroit. The assist
ant prosecutor points out that the law
provides for the holding Of only two
special meetings by the board during
the Official year, and that this limit
has been reached, the board having
met in special session on May and
Jan. 4. The next oficial year does
not begin until April 4. The opinion
was given at the request Of those op
posed to annexation.
Col. 0. A. James, president and
treasurer OF the Annexation club or
Highland Park, says that the annexa-
tionists will now wait until the cleo
tions next fall in order to vote on
annexation. He says no new petitions
will Der equired.

Morton; did not know Mr.. Morton and
did not know why their names had
bsen associated" said Fletcher Do
byns, member of the Chicago law
firm.
Mrs. Herman said that she was
quite sure her husband had no ap-
pointment with Mr.. Morton. When
she was asked IL her husband knew
Mr.. Norton, she replied: IF he knew
Mr.. Morton at all 1t was purely in q
business way"
When asked IL she knew Mr. Nor

nothing about the case at all. Whar'
ever there Is to be said, will have to
come from my husband when he re.
turns from Chicago"
At the law office of Br. Herman II
