GRAND JURY To
PROBE ASSAULT
AND THIEVERY
Doubt is Expressed That Chas.
S. CIuney, Janitor, Who is
Charged With Assault on
Child, Will be Indicted.

Several important cases from this
city are being heard before the grand
jury today. Detective Sergeants Huff
and Long and Patrolmen Gutowski,
Hartmann and MCGOWAN are at the
county seat to testify before the tri-
bunal.
One of the most important cases to
which local interest attaches, which
is being considered today. rs that in
which Charles S. Cluney, formerly
1anitor of No. 2 school in State
street, is charged with assault and
battery on seven year old Lily
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Pasquale
Sanford, of 211 Broad street. Doubt
is expressed by those who have been
studying the case whether an indiet-
ment will be found against the jani-
tor, because of the young age of his
aeeuser, and because no one Is said
to have seen the alleged attack. Clu-
ney is under a bail bond of $500.
The child, it was alleged, told g. s1'
mother that the accused mistreated
her in the cellar of thu school.
Wire Thievery Case.
Another case which the grand Jury
is scheduled to hear is that In which
bernard Kelly. twenty years old, of
100 DeKalb avenue, and Joseph Sc
rada, sixteen, of 544 Cortlandt street
are alleged to have stolen over
1000 feet of brass wire owned by
the Standard Underground Cable
Company. They were trapped in a
cellar In DeKalb avenue March Ie,
by Detective Sergeants HUFF and
Long.
The charge of robbing freight cars
on the siding of the Central railroad
near the Raritan Copper Works,
against George MacheH, OF 176 Grant
street, is scheduled to come before
the grand jury. In a desperate
struggle with jeremiah Cruit,
railroad guard, the man was severely
beaten. knocked unconscious and
taken to the city hospital, where he
was confined several weeks. To
keep him from escaping Patrolmen
Hartmann and Gutowski were sta
toned at the institution during the
mans convalescence. When he re-
covered he was taken to the county

SINKS; RESCUE
ALL ON BOARD
Mallory Liner Goes Down in
Mid-0cean-Cause of Sink
ing Not Known - Crew of
u. S. Ship Evelyn on Board.
SpeoiGi By United Press Wire. .

Spectdi bU United Press Wire.
New York, March 24:--Phe NAL
lory liner Denver sunk in mid-ocean
yesterday. Her crew and her passen-
gers were rescued according to wire
less today The cause of the sinking
is not yet known. A mix-up in trans
n ission of wireless signals caused Of
ficials of the line to believe that 1t
was because of a collision. Later
this was established as incorrect. The
original message from the White Star
liner Megantic spoke of the rescue of
the crew of the Aviland. This was
believed by officials to indicate that
the Denver had collided with such a
vessel Later it was decided that
this was an error for Evelyn.
1t was known that the Denver was
bringing back to the United States the
captain and crew of the American
steamer Evelyn, destroyed by mine
off Borkum, Highland Island, Feb
ruary 20.
The message from the M"gantic
was held to indicate clearly that the
crew of the Evelyn, including Cap
tain Smith, had again been rescued
this time from the Denver. Officials
could offer no explanation for the
sinking of the ship. A further mes
sage from the Megantic cleared up
earlier confusion in regard to the ac-
.cident, but still failed to give any ex-
planation of why the Denver should
have suddenly found herself sinking
The rescue of both crews and pas
sengers occurred In mid-oeean yes
terday. The location was not given.
