GRAND JURY REPORT
TO CIRCUIT Court
SHORT BUT BUSY SES-
SION
TWENTY INDICTMENTS MADE
Recommend That Steps Be
Taken 10 Place Insane Poor

Asylum
TWENTY INDICTMENTS MADE

To Hon. J. M. Carter, Circuit
Judge
The Grand Jury for thepresent
term of this court, having com
pleted their labors, beg leave to
make the following report:
We have examined into all
criminal cases brought to our
notice by transcript or oral
testimony of witnesses brought
before us, and in doing SO have
examined 43 witnesses. These
Investigations have resulted in
our finding 20 True Bills, of
Indictment, which have been
duly returned into Court.
We did not examine the re-
cords of the various County Off
GERS, as the Commissioners of
Accounts, appointed annually by
your Honor to investigate and
report upon the accounts and
settlements Of the various county
officers, made a thorough and
complete investigation Of these
various Officers at t h e last
October term of Court, which re-
port was filed with this Court,
thus making it unnecessary for
this body to make an investiga-
tiOn of same at this time.
We visited the County Jail in
a body and found the same in
good condition, everything neatly
kept, and the prisoners confined
therein well cared for. We
would recommend to the County
Judge that the sewer pipe run
ming from the ceils, and which al
present terminates, and deposits
the waste just outside the walls
of the main building, be extended
some fifty OF sixty feet, or {
convenient distance from the
building, and the waste be re
moved and disposed of regularly
this would greatly help the sani
tary condition Of the Jail. We
would also recommend that a new
roof be put on the front gallery
of the Jail, and the roof on tbf
main building be re-painted, anC
the walls of the two front rooms
Ire e-plastered.
A committee of our body, Sc
lected and appointed by our eff
cient Foreman, visited the Poor
House, in which the unfortunate
of our County are confined, anC
they report eight inmates (tw'
white, and six colored) and fivo
of them hopelessly insane, ant
we recommend that steps b.
taken by the proper authorities
to send these unfortunates to TIN
State Hospital for Nervous Dis
eases.
We found these inmates wei
clothed and cared for, and al
nicely and cleanly kept as it i
possible for those in their con
dition to be.
We have examined the report
Of the various Justices of tn
Peace of the County, and find tina
all have properly reported. ex

SCHWARZES ATTACK
DEAD ANIMAL PACT
ITrom a STAN Correspondent.

TRENTON, Jan. 31.--Reasons were
filed In the Supreme Court today in
the certiorari proceedings of Schwarz
Bros. Company and Eugene j. Schwarz
to have set aside the ordinance passed
by the Board of Health of Jersey City
giving to Louis Stern a contract for
the moving of dead animals from the
streets of Jersey City.
The reasons set out that the giving
of the contract to Stern is beyond the
power of the board that it denies
equal protection of the laws; that it
is taking OF property without due
process of law, and is invalid in that
the Board of Health has the power or
authority under police power or other
wise to pass the ordinance; that the
ordinance violates the State constitu-
tion that it is unreasonable and was
not properly passed.

State depends for conviction.
Chief Justice William S. Gummero

His charge was shorter than expect

it, favored the prisoners side.
He said that the case was founded

Outside in the corridors We're hun

Others many of the most prominent
lawyers in Newark.
The judges charge was delivered in
a masterful style. without any waste

MacFarland looked confident as the
Jury went out. He turned to his coun-
sci, Frank M. McDermit, and asked
How long do you think they will be
out?" Mr.. McDermit shook his head.
Prosecutor Mott. as he came from
the courtroom, refused to answer any
questions as to what he thought of the

men that an acquittal seemed sure, he
threw UP both hands and said: We'll,
