All the Marion County Judges Favor
It's ReDeal.

Attorneys of the city who practice in the
Circuit and Superior Courts are growing
moro and more dissatisfied with the special
verdict law and 1t is not unlikely that a
powerful legal influence will be brought to
bear on the next Legislature, looking toward
the repeal Of the law. Many of the attorneys
say the law confuses juries, for in answer
ing the great number OF interrogatories pro-
pounded to them they are apt to lose sight
of important points 1t is said that some of
the corporation attorneys are dissatisfied
with the law Notwithstanding the fact thar
corporations lobbied in its interest The In
dianapolis Bar Association has taken I'D the
question of repeating the law and at the last
meeting of the association a committee was
appointed to take steps in this direction.
All OF the county judges are In favor of
having the law repealed.
