The Grand Jury is making en invee _ tigation into the methods of the Dis |” trict-Attorney's office in trial of cases. Yesterday Elbridge T. Gerry, President of the 8. P. C.

None of the Asslstant-District Attor- Reys would speak about the investiga- tion, Assistant District-Attorney George Gordon Battle said: “I don't know anything about this ige vestigation.

The foreman, James W. O'Brien, has been particu- |tarly active, and in a close personal friend of Recorder Goff. One of the Assistant District-Attor- neys said that he thought matters would come to a head perhaps to-mor- row. Col. Fellows was seen this afternoon and asked about the investigation by the Grand Jury. He said: “I Know nothing about it. Let them Investigate all they please. The more Investigation the merrier, I welcome any tnvest‘gation they may make, but I have no knowledge, as I have not been consulted. If I had such knowl- edge it would not be Proper to speak about it.” Col. Fellows was joined by ex-District- | Attorney De Lancey Nicoll, and th went together into the former's office, —< BOLTEN WILL SUE.
