A special report trigned by five grand jurors was, however, presented to judge Kyle. The report, in effect. Is as follows: To the Hon, Chas. H. Kyle, Judge .of the Common. Pleas Court of Greene County, Ohio: We, the members of the October Grand Jury, 1911, further wish to re­ port that in the investigation of al­ leged election frauds, we find that a t the regular primary election in Sep: tember, 1911, an attempt was made to have said election held/and conducted In a cprimpt, fradulenf and irregular manner, in this towit.; that an attempt was made to bribe certain judges of election in precincts II and {?, in Xenia city, to count ballots different from what they had been cast and that there, was given and delivered to one judge of election $76 to induce and in­ fluence said judge to fradulently count the ballots differently from tbe way they, had been cast at said election. We find the evidence in proof of this was conclusive. We, therefore, recom­ mend that some proper action should be taken to Insure the electorate in the above precincts that in the future no such corrupt attempts will be made to brihe tbe sworn officers of elections to count ballots other than they are cast. • " ■ (Signed) George Haller, Daniel Den- nehy; Albert Cline, C. L. McClellan, William H. Shields. Judge Kyle announced .that the grand juiy would be continued until further order of' the court. NEWS 'ITEMS OF IHTEHEST.
