It wa even hinted that the indictment of Hamilton by a special grand jury call ed by the goverao and hi extradition e charges of grand larceny may be 'considered in the near future unless thia course i rendered unecessary by similar action on the part of District Attorney Jerome. . The proceeding In .such a case ia for the governor, either on the application ef the attorney-general or otherwise, to appoint a special prosecutor in connec tion with the assembling of the special grand jury, but such an undertaking is seldom if ever put through unless tbe State officials are convinced that the fecal district attorney baa failed to act within a reasonable time. What Judge Mayer think of tbe dis closure against both John Mctall and Hamilton contained in the Fowler com mittee's report may be judged from an interview that be granted at hi office here yesterday. He said: "The character of tbe report of the Fowler committee for thoroughness and candor is mot encouraging and indi cate the good faith of the committee." Ifave you arrival at any conclusion as to pulitkwl contributions!"' he was a-ked. ""Yes," wa th reply. "A'Ur study ing the legal prnjio-.it inns involved.

Judge Mayer; it U learned, ha eonfl deaee in toe bowler committee and its counsel, but the probability that John A.

It may be aid that if suck a situation arm, after the deter mination of the proposed litigation against MeCall and Hamilton, the court would be asked to determine whether the trustees were not required to make good the difference between the total illegal payment and the amount re- i covered.

"The gold rup, worth AWUU, whkh Smathem won at that time, has been taken by n deputy sheriff out of his suite in the Pterpont and is now in the sheriffs ofllce. Mr. Smsthers, when urea late last night, said the rup had been eized before he learned of the startling accusation. "On Wednesday, while Mr. Smather wa out of town, Deputy Sheriff John Murray went to the Firrpont and, after demanding admittance, showed the clerk a writ of replevin for the cup w'alch was surrendered. "Smsthers returned to hi spirt- ments yesterday and on learning of the seizure of the cup, wa furious.
