SHELBYVILLE. Ind. Feb. 2.-To-mor-
row is the day set for the argument for a
new trial in the George NJ Ray case, in
which he was recently convicted of con-
spiracy to defraud the county on a print
ing contract. From present indications the
town will be crowded with people to listen
TO the argument To-day Ray had SUBJ
poenas issued for large number of per-
sons friendly TO himself. 1t is not known
for what purpose they are to be used. 1t
is understood that several affidavits have
been prepared attacking the integrity of
some of the jurors, and these will be sub
mitted.
The feeling has grown so intense over the
matter that 1t will need but slight out

FAILED ON LIQUID AIR.
Edward Palmer, Promoter, Who Ii
Under Arrest at Chicago.

CHICAGO, Feb. 2.-Edmund Palmer,
whose banks in Desplaines and Ashley,
ILL.,, and Ellettsville, Ind, have closed, with
total liabilities estimated at $4,000. was
arrested at his home in Desplaines to-day.
Palmer is wanted by the authorities at
Ashley, and his arrest was at their re-
quest.
Against Palmers bank at Ashley there
are unsatisfied claims of $4,000. Depositors
of the Ellettsville concern claim $50, 900, and
have filed many suits of attachment since
the bank closed its doors, week ago. The
deficit in the accounts of the Desplaines
institution is put at $4,000 The police
have been looking for Palmer since Mon
day.
AS a lecturer on the properties of liquid
air Palmer has travelled all over the United
States. Palmer said to-day that inability
to realize on his securities in liquid-air
projects was the cause of the closing of
his banks, but asserted that If allowed TO
carry out his plans he would be able TO
pay his creditors dollar for dollar.
If Palmer is brought to trial his defense
may be unique. His attorney, c. 8. OAR
row, took the position to-day that Palmer S
interest in the subject of liquid air and
what 1t is destined to do for humanity was
so intense that Palmer was not responsible
for his actions. When the attorney tried
to get from Palmer an account of his finan-
cial transactions he was met with a long
discourse upon the wonderful things that
could be accomplished by the use of liquid
air, and the attempt 10 gain information
was given UP.
