Oliver K. Pagin confirms our Joint opinion
In this respect, and thus confined the In
quiry before the present grand Jury to an
Investigation of allotted violations of law
as tbey might be the subject of prosecu
tion in other Jurisdictions.
Valnable Evidence Collected.
Evidence valuable to the government In
any prosecution which may lie commenced
elsewhere has been adduced before the
grand Jury and probabty will be at once
put Into use in the proper Jurisdiction
probably Chicago by the attorney general.
The attorney general has directed that
the summing up of the evidence taken be
fore the present grand Jury, the preparation
of the case and the conduct of the trial In
Chicago be assumed by myself, with the
help of a specially appointed assistant at
torney general and tiie United States at
torney in Chicago.
It appearing from this statement that
from under the facts aa they now appear
there Is no lawful Jurisdiction in this par
ticular Judicial district, the grand Jury
did not vote upon the Jurisdiction of In
dictments at all. but the sitting of that
body f kth present time was important In
pot onirf1-, developing whem the prosecution
of UjeJ leged offenses should be had, but

act to regulate commerce among the states.
Captain Grmramer'a Statement, .
The dismissal of the grand Jury came Im
mediately following the testimony of Cap
tain O. J. Orammer, vlee -prealdent of the
Ike Shore fk Michigan Southern Railway
company, who wai in the grand Jury room
about an hour.
Questioned concerning the alleged cancel
lation of storage charges against the Stand
ard Oil company at Chicago, Orammer
sweepingly denied that any charges had
been cancelled. He Insisted that no storage
voucher had ever been sent from Chicago
to the auditor' department In thla city to
be. marked paid and that testimony to that
effect by M. C. Tully before the Interstate
Commerce commission had been put Into
Tully' mouth by Judge Prouty of the
commission. Captain Orammer waa elated
following the dismissal of the grand Jury.
"Because I knew to an absolute certainty
that there wan no foundation for the
charge that the Lake Shore & Michigan
Southern had extended favors to the Stand
ard Oil company to the detriment of com
petltora, I anticipated the reault of the
deliberation of the grand Jury," aald Cap
tain Orammer.

TOPEKA, Kan., July 17. A meat slaught

that Dr. J. S. Crumbtne, secretary 6f the

If the order Is not complied with In the
time specified arreat and prosecution may
follow.
"It Is Impossible for- me to describe the
actual condition aa I found them." said
Dr. Crumbine. "No person who hasn't seen
the place, can conceive the mthlneas of it.
It waa so bad that I cannot see how tha
place can be cleaned in five day or fifty
day. It's my opinion that the burning of
the house will be the only means of eradi
cating the disease germ.
"There may be other slaughter house In
almost a bad a condition, none can be a
bad, and I hope by sending notices to all
county commissioners there may be a gen
eral cleaning up."
The order applies to some of the big
packing houses at Kansas City, whose

BODY USED AS CLOAK FOR INQUISITION
Attorneys Allege thnt Prfendnnt Has
Right to Be Represented at
Taking of All Testimony
t nder Oath.
NEW YORK, July i;.The defense in the
case of Harry K. Thaw, accused of the
murder of Stanford White, made an unusual I
and unexpected move today when a writ
of prohibition was secured from Justice
Blsnchard In the supreme court restraining
the district attorney and the July grand
Jury from taking further evidence under
oath against the prisoner. The application
for the writ was made, by John Gleason of
counsel for Thaw and the order to show
cause why It should not be continued was
made returnable tomorrow. It was said to
night that the district attorney's office will
equest an adjournment of the matter be
cause of the absence from the city of Dis
trict Attorney Jerome and his assistant,
Mr. Garvan.
Detrimental to Prisoner's Interest.
Counsel for Thaw allege that through the
illegal use of grand jury subpoenas the
district attorned is summoning all possible
wltnessea lh the caso to hi office, putting
them' tender1 oath there and tawing deposi
tion which may be detrimental to the pris
oner's Interest. It Is further alleged that as
Thaw Is already under Indictment and no
new Indictment for the murder of White
Is contemplated, the district attorney has
no right to use the grand Jury aa a cloak
for his own Inquisition. Almost every per
son who can appear as a witness In the
rase, forty-Seven of them so far, have been
sworn by the district . attorney. It I as
serted, and depositions made for use at the
trial, and at all of this counsel for the
defense has not been allowed to be present.
Mrs. Thaw visited her husband In the
Tombs today and afterwards went to the
office of Judge Olcott'tt law Arm, which haa
been re-engaged by Thaw' mother.
It was reported today that Thaw has
been under the close scrutiny of an alien
ist, disguised aa a prison attendant, ever
since the possibility wrs raised of an In
sanity plea being urged.
Allegations In Complaint.
The allegations on which the restraining
writ was Issued state that as Thaw had
been Indicted by the grand Jury It Is Illegal
for the district attorney to Issue grand
Jury subpoenas and to obtain further evi
dence for the' presecution through witnesses
who appear t the district attorney' office
In answer to summonses. Application for
the writ contained the following allegations:
For the purpose of nrenarina the case for
trial aiibpnenss are made by the district
attorney, addressed to witnesses, requiring
mem to appear snd testiry berore the
grand Jury in an Investigation before it.
The subpjoenas are not made for the pur
pose of procuring any new Indictments for
the killing of Stanford White, but for tho
purpose of procuring evidence to be used
against the defendant at the trial. The
witnesses are required by the district attor
ney io be sworn aa beiore the granu. jury
and the depositions are taken. The news
papers keep track of the witnesses thu
produced and undertake to state the facta
to which they have testified. The taking
of these depositions against the defendant
has .been chiefly entrusted to Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Garvao, and from time to
time Interviews purporting to come from
him nave apearea in trie purine press, ill
which the Intent to take the depositions
before the grand Jury for use against
Harry K. ' Thaw' at his trial haa been
plainly -started... i" i
Mr. Gleason served ai' copy of the order
opon Acting District1 Attorney Sym Smyth,
who said prnbablsVith district attorney
would,, ask. for 4n adjournment tomorrow.
When, the nppllcatlbuvl' returnable In the
aupreme court. 4 .
Thaw Will Be Declared Insane.
The World tomorrow will ay: "Harry
Thaw will never , Jje .placed on trial for
the murder of Stanford White. An appli
cation will be mads tor the appointment
of a commission to inquire into hla sanity.
There is no doubt that he will be declared
Inriine and rent to- the hospital for the
Criminal Insane at -Mattewan:"
District Attorney Jerome la not expected
to Interpose any serious objection to the
appointment of a commission to inquire
Into Harry Thaw'a sanity. Some of the
alienists retained by the district attorney
have reported to htm their belief that Thaw
is mentally Irresponsible.. Many-friends of
Stanford White have asked the district
attorney to consent to such a disposition
of the case rather than have the notoriety
of a trial. "
