PRACTICES
INDISCREET

OF BAY STATE
LEGISLATORS
County Grand Jury
Reported on 1918 In
vestigation

Boston, June 2l.-The Suffolk county
grand jury reported to-day to District
Attorney O'Brien that its investigation
of charges Of corruption and graft
among public officials in connection
with the passage Of street railway legis-
lation in 1918, indicated, that indiscreet
practices we're induIged in by members
OF the general court, but that the cvi-
dence submitted did not call for in.
dictments against any person or per-
sons.
'AVhile no evidence is disclosed read
the report. in the present grand Jury
inquiry upon which the jurors could in
good conscience base an indictment
against any person or persons, the ju-
rors do. however, take this occasion to
call public attention to and express
their unanimous condemnation Of in
discreet practices INDUCED in by GER
tain members Of the general court at
a period of time coincident with the
passage Of these highly important leg
islative measures.
I'VE refer most particularly 10
loans made TO members of the lcgisla-
ture by the Fidelity Trust Company
and to investments made by legisla
tors in street railway stocks at a time
so closely related to the passage of the
street railway legislation in question
as to afford a basis for reasonable sus-
picion in the public mind"

his possible knowledge OF the murder

Naval authorities have SO far re.
fused to give up Lawhorn to the civil

not enough evidence to connect him
with the crime. Lawhorn was brought
into the case through the alleged CON

Lawhorn had confessed TO him that he

BURNSIDE
SHOPMEN TURN
DOWN STRIKE
These Employees Of Illinois
Central Railroad Are Re-
ported to Have Voted
Overwhelmingly Against
Walkout As Prote $ t
Against Wage Reduction

Chicago, June q (By the Associated
Press Union headquarters, where
the strike vote of railway employees
was tabulated, to-day admitted disap-
pointment over the volume of returns
in the nation wide referendum of shop
men and other rail workers on the
question of a walkout in protest
against wage cuts ordered by the Unit
ed States railroad labor board. Re
ports on the balloting at the Burn
side shops Of the Illinois Central were
that the boilermakers there had voted
Overwhelmingly against a strike.
Only five days remain before the
general committee Of ninety represent
ing the rail workers meet in Chicago
to canvass the returns. The general
chairmen are expected to arrive FRI
day and Saturday, intending to begin
the ballot count on Sunday. B. VI.
Jewell, head of the railway employees
department of the American Fedora
tion of Labor, who urged the union
voters to return their ballots early so
the result could be announced at the
same time the $l36.000.O00 wage cuts
become effective July I, is expected
back from the Cincinnati convention
to morrow.
Rail workers and their leaders. to-
day were digesting the reply of Ben
W. Hooper, chairman of the railroad
labor board, to the nine union chiefs
who informed the board that strike.
would be authorized if the referendum
favors suspension of work on the
roads.
What effect Mr.. Hooper's statement,
that the proposed strike would be dis
astrous to the railway unions, unfor
tunate for their members and unjust
to the public, would have on the bal
loting the remainder of the week was
a matter of conjecture.
Mr.. Hooper's letter, which was ad
dressed to Mr.. Jewell, said the strike
vote should not be taken on any mis-
understanding of the action or attitude
of the board, and asserted that the ul
timatum of the union chiefs manifest
ed "a strictly distorted conception Of |
what the board has done and why il |
did it"
Mr.. Hooper said although he felt no
reply was required, he also felt it his
duty to answer the union leaders in 1
the interest of railway peace and be- /
cause the threatened strike contains
such possibilities of loss and detri-
ment" to the strikers.
