Crown Point, Ind, April Cup
Criminal Court Judge William j
Murray, bitterly scored in the re-
port of the grand jury investigat-
ing John Dillinger's escape from
the county Jail here, to-day ordered
the grand jurors to appear in court
Monday and show cause why they
should not be cited for contempt.
Judge Murray in issuing war;
rants for the six members of the
special grand jury which returned
its report and two indictments last
Tuesday called the report "scan-
dalous and contemptuous in its
language"
He referred to the portions of
the report which assailed him for
refusing to permit the transfer of
DilliNger to the state prison at
Michigan City after the desperado's
return from Tucson, .Ariz, where he
was captured.
The Judge said immediately after
the filing OF the report that he
had been withIIt any legal auth
ority to order Dillingers transfer
from the Crown Point jail unless
1t was shown there was danger OF
mob violence.
IF Dillihger is recaptured will
order him put right back in the
Crown Point jail again." he said.
Judge Murray's threatened con-
tempt action against the six grand
Jurors was based on what he called
IAN unjustified report"
1T not only attacks my dignity
but the dignity Of the courts of

Adolph Baum of New York, owner
of the establishment, was here on
business yesterday and spent the
night at Keene. He said he was un-
decided as to whether he would re-
build.
A short circuit of one of the fac.
tory's SO looms. which were valued
at $250,000, was believed to have
caused the fire. The one-story
wooden and concrete structure was
doomed when Emile Speiss, plant
manager who lived in the adjoining
tenement house, was awaken by
the coughing of his children, Dor
othy, 8, and Emile, Jr., s. They
and Mrs Speiss had to flee. their
second floor fiat in night clothing
and could save only few effects,
but Speiss was able to save his
automobile from a nearby garage.
Mr. and Mrs Clifford Hebert, &C.
cupants of the first-floor tenement
were able to save most of their
furniture and effects. Records of
the Wovencraft company were
salvaged and the employees were
paid by check today. The factory
machinery was warped by the in
tense heat and most of 1t was be-
lieyed beyond repair. The damage
was partly covered by insurance.
Detachments of firemen from
Keene helped confine the fire to
the two buildings.
