LOGAN Loses His Case.

W. N. Logan's case in the district
court at Corydon for the recovery of
$4,000 from the Bank of Lineville was
dismissed on last Thursday on motion of
of the defense. Mr.. Logan sold his fine
farm 81 miles northwest of this place
something over three years ago, and
aftey buying residence property in
Lineville moved to town and invested
all of his remaining money in stock in
the Bank of Lineville, amounting to
5000. The stock had belonged to
Morg WATSON, but had been forfeited
to the bank by loans and overdrafts
to WATSON and the basis of Mr.. Logan's
claim was that the stock he bought
belonged to the bank and had been
sold to him under false representations
as to the solvency of the bank at that
time. The court however, did not hold
the stockholders as responsible for
the alleged misrepresentation as to the
con lition of the bank by it's officers,
and Mr.. Logan lost his case.

recalling one of the most important
criminal prosecutions in the history of
Ringgold county. Geo. H. Price, now
OF Diagonal, but formerly of Monroe
township, has set in motion through his
attorney, Frank K. Reynard, of Mt. Ayr,
suit for $4,000 damages against Thos.
A. Drake and Mrs. Thos. A. Drake, of
Monroe township, and Eli Landr, tn, of
Creston. The damages claimed are for
malicious prosecution and conspiracy.
The petition has not yet been filed, nor
have the notices been served.
The amount is claimed collectively
from the four persons named. All we're
active in the prosecutions of Price fer
offenses which it was alleged he com
mitted against his step-daughter, Ger
trude Blackmore. The notice placed in
sheriff Miller's hands for service on the
defendants alleges that damages to the
amount stated have been sustained by
the plaintiffs unlawful, illegal, and
malicious prosecution on the criminal
charges of rape and incest" and his
unlawful arrest on said charges"
Further, that each of the defendants
''conspired together, knowing the plain
tiff to be innocent, to secure his arrest,
indictment, and prosecution"
Eli Landreth is the grandfather of the
girl, Gertrude Blackmore, who was the
prosecuting witness in the Price cases;
Frank Landreth is the brother and Mrs.
Drake the sister OF Mrs. George Price,
who is the mother of the Blackmore
girl. Gertrude Blackmore is now under
the guardianship of Frank Landreth, by
order of the court, made at the time of
the second Price trial.
Price was indicted in April, 1902, for
both rape and incest. In November
1902, he was acquitted on the charge of
rape after closely contested trial. In
February, 1903, he was convicted of in
cest and given five year sentence by
Judge Parrish. Pending appeal, he was
out on bond, and on April 18th of the
present year the case was reversed by
the state supreme court on the point
raised by the defense that the defend.
ant had been twice placed in jeopardy
for the same offense. There was long
delay on the part of the court in hand
ing down decision, and an interesting
story is told among lawyers to the effect
that the supreme court was deadlocked
for eight months with three judges on a
side, until finally one of the judges hold
ing for the prosecution was convinced
by the other side and changed to the
defendants side of the case, reversing
the lower court by a vote of four to
two.-Mt. Ayr News.
