Judge Wadhams Scores
Him in Court as Labor
Leaders Listen.
SAYS LAW AND ORDER
ARE INDICATED
|. r. T. Heads Action Is
Called "IlI-AdviSed and
Improper

The action Of Theodore P Shonts, in
writing letters 20 members Of the
grand jury. chsrscterizing certain labor
leaders as crafty" and "cowsrdly," and
urging an investigation Of their acts,
was scored yesterday By Judge William
II. Wadhams.
Although the court held that the ju-
dietary law Of New York State did not
make the sending OF a communication
20 grand juror a crime, he declared
that the action OF Mr.. Shonts was ell
advised" and highly improper"
Taking advantage of the loop-holes
IN the law 70 commit acts which VIC
late a sense Of fairness and common
justice is the kind OF conduct which
breeds rancor and hatred, leading 70
violence and strife" said Judge Wad-
hams.
Law and Order Vindi ated.
III person who honestly believes
that an indictment should be found
may communicate with a grand juror
for the purpose Of urging him 20 in
vestigate a case, 20 the end that an in
dictment may be found. then person
who honestly believes that an indict-
ment should not be found may also
communicate for the purpose Of pre-
venting the finding Of an indictment.
H. .1..A 20 oh
tain q full performance Of duty on the
part Of grand Juries. Law and order
are daily being indicated. No just
complaint has been preferred against
any official for failure 20 perform his
duty In suppressing violence and pun
ishing offenders.
Il am informed that the records OF
this court show that the city magls-
rates in this county have passed judg-
ment on 232 cases arising from dis
order due 20 the strike. The grand
juries OF this county have already
handed I'D five indictments before the
receipt of these letters. and fifteen
complaints are still under investigs-
ton"
Labor Leaders Present.
Judge Wadhams delivered this opin-
ion 20 the grand jury in General SEES
sions The courtroom was crowded.
Among the spectators we're several Ia
Dor leaders and their attorneys, James
II. Vahey. of Boston. and Louis Fridi-
ger. OF this city.
Early yesterday Delaney Nicoll, at
torrev for the Interborough Rapid
Transit Company, presented a brief 20
Judge Wadhams in behalf Of the com
pany's officials.
Holding that the Shonts pamphlets
had inyalidated further action BY the
grand jury on strike cases, Judge Wad-
hams transferred all cases 20 the add
tional grand jury. He said if IL should
develop that members of this body, too,
had received copies he would empanel
a third grand jury.
