Chicago, April 4.-Eight hundred

cording to Charles F. Clyne, United
States district attorney under whose
direction the federal grand jury yes

of the government taxes on trades.
Not more than a half million of dol

The grand jury investigation will
continue today as it is the opinion of
the district attorney that there is still
much to do in searching for evidence
of conspiracy to evade payment.
