Judge Fawcett ir Brooklyn instructed @ Grand Jury to investigate the ao-| called crime wave, and advised that speakers at a recent church mass mireting be summoned to déffuse in- | fJurmation on that subject Judge Mulqueen advised that the Grand Jury has nothing to do with | the government of any city depart: ment dbevond finding indictments upon sufficient evidence against of- ficials charged with crime, Judge Fawcett gave the Grand Jury of| Kings County a sort of roving com- mission to institute a widespread in- vestigation into civic ‘conditions were Tf there had been an Intention of in- terested persons to bring about an tn- vestigation by a new Grand Jury of the epecial Grand Jury which has been in Veatigating police conditions, Judge Mul: |, Queen effectually smothered the project | to-day when he swore in two Grand Juries in the Court of General Sessions. He went to some length and took great Pains in explaining to the members of the two bodies that ther sole duty ts to investigate crimes and find tndict- ments upon legal evidence, or refurg to find indictments #hould the evidence be Anaufficient. The necessity of keeping the proceed- tngs of the Grand Jury secret was em- phasized, The jurors were particularly instructed to refrain from engaging themselves with gosmp or trivial affi- davits and to particularly avoid any- thing that might tend to advance or retard tho political fortunes of any in- dividual or organization. Grand Juries, Judge Muiqueen said, have no legal war- rant for returning presentments, nor are they entrusted with the management of the Police Department, although it t# their duty to Investigate corrupt prac- Gees of public offi, Whitman Differs on Law. One of Judge Mulqueen's statements ‘Was that it is a misdemeanor for any One to disclose the Grand Jury proverd- tmgs. When this statement was called to the Whitman he said ‘That ts not wo, The Jaw only makes tt a misdemeanor for the stenographer to disclose what transpires before the Grand Jury,” Dantel F. Treacy, a plano manufac- turer of No. Bast Kighty-ninth street, Was cvhosen foreman of the regular Grand Jury, Maurice Jacobi, a real es tate man, of No, 71 Nassau street, will as foreman of the additional Grand Judge Mulqueen charged both Grand Juries as follows “Gentlemen, not from choice, but @ecause 1 am legally enjoined to do so, fam going to charge you as to your Guties as members of the Grand Jury.

If you go beyond ‘your duties and concern yourselves with | matters outside your jurisdiction violate the law governing the Grana | Jury, which is the oldest legal institu: | tion in America.” Judge Mulqueen carefully read the! sections relating to Grand Juries and | their duties, Continuing, he said “You see from this that you have nothing to do but investigate crimes. | Ut is not your duty to advance or retard | the political fortunes of any person or | organization, I cal! @ttention to the! fact that you are to consider only legal documenary evidence.

You know just what you are paying for and that the ingredients are gathered from Nature's laboratory, being selected from the most valuable native medicinal roots found growing in our American forests and while potent to cure are perfectly harm- lgss—even to the most delicate women and children.
