Ewald, the resigned magistrate, original target of the inquiry which Governor Roosevelt was forced to order some months ago when his political foes (Republican) aroused public suspicion that New York City judgeships were being sold for cash by Tammany Hall. Two county juries came to no decision on Judge Ewald's case, though a Federal jury indicted him on a mail fraud charge.
