Night Raids of Police Department Are Also to Come In for Investi gation, It Is Said. Final report of the March grand Jury, expected today, is awaited with unusual interest because of the possi bilities of the report. For several weeks-past the Jury has been working In the dark, so far as the public is concerned, and only unofficial Infor mation has come from the Investi gators. It is learned authoritatively that there is sure to be caustic mention made of the City Engineer's office, and that one or more indictments may bo expected. City Engineer Taylor him self has not been found guilty of mis conduct, but It was learned last night that street inspectors have been flushed who are In the habit of turn ing supplies and surplus labor to their own account. District Attorney Cameron has been conducting a vigorous Investigation Into the engineering department. He declines to say what the fruits have been. but from an unquestionable source it has been revealed that the grand Jury's brand will mark one or more street Inspectors or other out ride men. Bookkeeper Pugh, of tho City -Engineer's - office, spent several hours with the Jury yesterday, but what revelations he made -will not b known until the final report comes out. 'The subject of night raiding by" the police is likewise expected to figure conspicuously in the final report. As the result of raids made about the city by warrantless officers, the grand Jury went thoroughly into the subject some time ago. Mayor Lane passed the re sponsibility along to- T. G. Greene, who runs the police department. Greene passed It along to Chief Gritamacher who passed it along to Captain Slover. who took the blame rather than try to blame his subordinates, Kienlen, Kay Keller and others, who made the raids' Although the month ends with to day, the grand Jury can continue its investigations through the week The new grand Jury term does not set in until next Monday, and the present inquisitors have a few days of unex pected grace. The Indications are however, that the report will be turned In today to the Circuit Court. BUNS! BUNS! BUNS! The delicious kind we served you last year.
