This was decided Thursday by Judge Foster in the court of general sessions at New York. after hearing arguments on a presentment handed up by the grand jury which declared there was a conflict in the testimony and requested the court to send the minutes to Albany. The request was opposed by counsel for the attorney general, who contended that the action of the grand jury in making the presentment was gratuitous and absolutely without authority of law. In announcing his decision Judge Foster said that nothing evil appeared in the presentment. He said the filing of the presentment was in accordance with the custom of grand juries to file a document of this kind.
