made by Thomas II. Adams, publisher
of the Vincennes. Ind, Commercial,
today had reached an official investi-

grand jury as the fairest tribunal
before which hearing can be- had at
this time. Adams reiterated. how
ever. that he believed a state Senate
Investigation would be Of greater
scope and more able to unearth the
whole mass of corruption that he in
sistS exists.
The grand jury investigation was
ordered Yesterday by James "A. Col

Day Toll of Two San Fran

SAN FRANCISCO, October 12.-
Every San Francisco policeman on
vacation or otherwise off duty was
called back to his post today to join
in the concerted effort of the Police
Department to round up two mania
tai young gunmen who have carried
on a wanton reign of killing, robbery
and shooting since Saturday night.
Scores of firemen also were detail
ed to police duty and 900 rifles were
requisitioned from the National
Guard armor'y TO equip the officers for
the man hunt.
Striking rapidly in various parts OF
the city the bandits last night follow
ed up an orgy of crime on Saturday
night and Sunday by Killing three
men and wounding five others, either
by shooting them or by beating them
with pistol butts. In the shootings
Saturday and Sunday one man was
killed outright, another died of
wounds and three We're shot.
Taxi Driver Slain.
The bandits started operations last
night by killing Walter Swanson. a
taXicab driver. They then took his
clothes. threw the body over via
duct and continued their depreda
tions in Swanson's cab. Within an
hour they killed two more men and
wounded three others.
After Staying Swanson. the pair en-
tered a restaurant, where they shot
Louis Fernandez, q cook, and robbed
the cash register Of $40. Two men In
the restaurant said the bandits fired
-hI, 1,a io6
thought their command of 'hands up
was Joke.
Crossing the street to filing sta
ton. the bandits shot and killed Jack
Duane. a night watchman, and wound
ed G.. w. Johnson, station attendant,
and his companion. r. A. Hayden.
Johnson was shot when he ran from
the gunner.
The third Staying occurred in an
other section of the city, where MI
chael Petrovitch, a steam shovel oper-
ator. was shot to death as he strolled
along the sidewalk. Lust for killing
apparently was the only motive for
Staying Petrovitch, as he had not
been robbed.
Two Beaten and Robbed.
. Next the bandits encountered Alvin
Anderson. seaman, ana Stepnei,
Walker and beat them both after
robbing them. They were pursued
bv a policeman after robbing Walker,
but escaped after an exchange OF
shots. Forced to abandon the CAB,
they stole another automobile, ana.
driving by the spot where they killed
swanson, they directed a fusillade
of shots at an officer. They missed,
however, and the policeman returned
the fire without effect.
One suspect was arrested when he
was unable to give a satisfactory ar,
count of his presence in an abandoned
taxicab. Although he is still being
held. police believe he had no con-
nection with the crimes. He sald
his name was Michael Price,
