CHICAGO JURY
TO INVESTIGATE
GAMBLING RING
Syndicate Linked to PoIti-
tics, Is Belief of Attorney,
Directing Probe.

By United Press
CHICAGO, Nov. 9.--Syndicated
gambling will be the object of the
next investigation here by a special
grand jury.
Election frauds and violence have
been probed infinitely by five preW
GUS juries, and the sixth, to be inn
paneled next Tuesday, will look into
a gambling ring, said to be operated
by two men formerly prominent in
politics and a former Halstead street
saloon keeper.
The November grand jury, author
lied Thursday by Chief Justice John
j. Sullivan of the criminal court, will
be the last, Frank j. LoeSch, special
assistant encouragement, who is
conducting the Investigations, said.
Link Ring to Politicians
'There is much evidence that a
syndicate has control of gambling
and slot machines" Loesch said,
and there apparently is a connec-
ton between the ring and politi-
Clans"
Meantime, two witnesses in the
Eller henchmen election fraud trial
assured Sheridan A. Bruseaux, chief
Investigator for the prosecution, of
threatening them in order to force
them to make false statements and
identi1cations in the murder of
OctaviuS Granady, Negro.
Granady was slain last April. He
was the opponent of Morris Eller,
city collector, in the primary cleo
tons for ward committeeman.
Eller and his son, Judge Emanuel
Eller, also have been indicted in
connection with the murder and are
awaiting trial.
Testifies of Threat
One of the witnesses told his
story to Judge John M. O'Connor
in chambers and the other from the
stand.
j. G. Mcmillan, Negro preacher,
testified that Bruseaux had threat
ened him with Indictment if he
didn't identify John ArTnondo, one
of the sixteen defendants, as the
man who shot Granady.
Mcmillan, however, testified to an
alibi for Armondo.

There may be differences of opin-
ion as to just how much the ac-
tivities of the Anti-saloon League
figured in the results, but there will
be no controversy over the facts OF
the increased dry majority in both
houses of congress. In the lower
house the Anti-Saloon League
makes claims of a gain Of from fif-
teen to twenty members.
