Regular Visitors to Cedar Lake Being Twigged.

Crown Point, Ind., Oct. 12.—Editor Wheeler has some inside dope on the grand jury sessions this week as follows: “The grand jury is still holding daily sessions, beginning on the fifth week, and the end is nowhere in sight. Some of the members have stated that with the work that is still ahead of them it would not be surprising if the ,sessions continue to end of the present term of the circuit court, which will hold until the second week in November. It appears that the county is being gone over with a fine tooth comb and it is quite certain that Deputy Prosecutor Bremer and the jury will bring in the largest lot of indictments ever returned by a grand jury in Lake county. Nothing along the line of ‘free and easy’ affairs is escaping the notice of the jury; in fact, witnesses by the wholesale are daily called to the captain’s office to tell what they know about this and that. Cedar Lake, it is said, is coming in for a grand clean-up—-dozens of witnesses having been asked about the blondes, brunettes and the fat and slim ones, who have made the lake their habitat this season, on the theory that those who dance must pay the fiddler, and from the outside appearances around the jury room it looks as though something heavy is going to drop on the Cedar Lake environments when the jury weaves together their mass of evidence secured in the past few days.”
