10 inquire into the alleged Thaw bride
and Alfred Henry Lewis. magazine writer,
testified yesterday before the grand jury.
which is seeking To find out II any bribery
took place and who was responsible for il
II became clear yesterday how either
three or five indictments might he re-
turned. There is some evidence TO show
that three men entered into conspiracy
10 get Thaw out of Mattcawan and to
put money in their own pockets thereby.
nr. John W. Russell. former head OF
Matteawan. has testified that an offer of
s25. 900 was made 10 him TO declare Thaw
sane According TO one story. three men
arc responsible for the bride which Dr.
Russell says was offered him.
The other two are said To be- men who.
after DR. Russell had refused the bride.
entertained him lavishly and sought to
persuade him to take the money. So far
there is not a complete case against the
three men who arc said Ia bc responsible
for the bride. and the case against the
other two Is largely a matter Of con-
lecture. To secure indictments against
the two entertainers 1t would bc ncccs-
sary to show knowledge of criminal in
tent OH their part.
The grand jury inquiry will probably
last through most cf next week. Lewis
will be recalled on Monday. II was said
Yesterday that the question of asking
