PAVILION
DEPENDS on BILL
Livestock Show Building May
Not Be Constructed,

Hopes OF the business men Of Ok
lahoma City for a mammoth livestock
pavilion at the stookyards to be built
in time to handle the annual spring
livestock show in 1920, depend largely
upon whether the kendriok bill passes
congress.
Business men who have been active

yesterday that representatives OF vii
son and company and Morris AMI
company have agreed to give SJ00O
each for the proposed building, pro-
viding the Kendriek bill is killed. Il
the proposed legislation for licensing
and regulation Of the packing business
carries, the inference is tina, there will
be no appropriation for livestock
show building at the stockyards in
Oklahoma City.
The plan is 10 erect a building TO
cost $4,000. Of which $4,000 was to

Attorney General S. p. freezing was
present during the empaneling Of the

o'clock and after appointing Dorset
Carter foreman, the Judge read hi,
cnrse and the jury with Robert
burns. county attorney, and the AZ
tofney general. retired for the morn
ing to begin Investigations.
Judge Clark stated that the jury was
called in response to petition Of the
people and that II was 1t liberty 10
follow any line OF investigation as far
as il thinks best This charge. coming
soon after a charge concerning the
powers OF the jury in regard TO in
vestigation OF officials, was considered
significant by some who anticipated
an invest .,ation into the conduct OF
city affairs by the present administra-
ton.
Every one is looking to the grand
jury to take up the reasons for the
high cost Of living Clark said.
Restraint Of Trade.
Except to investigate from the
anale oi> unlawful combinations In
restraint OF trade. such action will be
vory expensive and equally unprof-
table and will occupy time that may
better be spent along other lines"
The jury was specifically instructed
70 investigate conditions in the eoun'
~ jail such ~ the care Of prisoners,
food, etc, and to report on any cases
where persons have been held with.
out information having been filed
sgaint them in the district court.

! While county officials have not
generally favored the calling Of a

called upon to bring before Il infor-
nation to keep Investigations going
II is rumored that there will be no

jury 90 far ~ federal authorities are
concerned. Il Is runsored that more
than one hundred cases are to be pre-
sented by the U. S. district attorneys

Many OF the members called for
service on the grand jury pleaded
with Judge Clark to excuse them
from service on account Of the finan-
cial loss that will Come to them,
bM the judge would not excuse them.
