MINISTERS DON'T LIkEIT
TO DECLARE THEMSELVES
Richmond Pastors Will Probably Fol-
low Suggestion of Certain of Their
Number and Denounce Fairs Where
Chance Predominates.

1t is asserted that the ministerial
association either at its meeting to-
day or at some time in the near fu-
ture will formally declare itself on
the question of carnivals given under
the auspices of fraternal societies or
any other organizations. There is a
pronounced feeling, it is said, among
the membership, that all such fairs
where the element of chance plays
an important part in any feature of
such entertainments should be elimi-
mated from the social life of the city
and for this reason the association
will in the future assert its right to
have such affairs stopped. There has
been no feeling against the E.ss fair,
it is said. other than the belief that
there was too much to tickle the fan
cies of those of a speculative turn, no
matter whether the values offered
were large or small 1t is against
carnivals in general, not any one in
particular, that the ministers will like
~ array themselves in the future, I'M
less the element of chance is elimi-
mated.

for an aggressive campaign in the in

punishment in Indiana.
Condo, within the next few weeks
will have a talk with Governor Hanly
in regard to the mee~e he proposes
to introduce. The bin will be similar
to the one he introduced two years
ago. 1t received a substantial vote,
but not strong enough to be effective.
Condo has not despaired. He will
ask Governor Hanly to recommend in
his message to the Legislature that
capital punishment be done away
with.

Although Financial Success,
EIkS Feel that Such Event
Is Too Much Work.
SOME FORTUNATE PERSONS
BY THE EVENT HELD IN COLL
scum - IMPORTANT MEErING
THURSDAY NIGHT.

The Elks' Fair is a memory and
probably ever will be so, for the lodge
members who labored faithfully for
the success of two such events, feel
that it will be long time, if ever,
before another project will be taken
up of this character The fair was a
success in all particulars, but it is
not likely that the lodge will know
just how it stands until next Thurs
day night, when the report of the ex-
ecutive committee will be presented
at the regular session. A partial au-
dit of the receipts and expenses show
that while the receipts during the
week were somewhat in excess Of the
receipts of the fair three years ago,
the expenses were very much greater,
hue to various causes, principally to
the fact that the enterprise was car
ried out on a more pretentious scale
than before. 1t is possible that on
Thursday night a formal discussion OF
the proposition to take steps to insure
a permanent home for the local lodge
of Elks will take place.

Attorneys for BIufft0n Murder
er, Now in Easthaven,
Ask for New Trial.
CASE is ALL MIXED UP
STATE WILL PROBABLY At
TEMPT TO AVOID ANOTHER
HEARING ON GROUND THAT
HE is HOPELESSLY INSANE.

John W. Terrell, the Wells county
murderer, who has been an inmate
of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for
the insane, this city. for more than
queer legal controversy resulting
from the interchangeable efforts of his
relatives to secure his release from
the hospital by means of new trial
on the charge of having slain in cold
blood, his son-in-law.
Since Terrell landed in Easthaven
four years ago, he has never given
the slightest indication of a return of
intelligence At first it was openly
charged that Terrell was feigning in
sanity and that the fact would be de-
tected. but it did not take long for
the corps of physicians at the 1nsti-
tuition to determine that Terrell was
insane and probably hopelessly So
About year ago steps We're taken at
Button. the county seat of Wells
county to reopen the Terrell case
but plans miscarried for some cause
and until Saturday no further action
was taken On Saturday, with the
object in view of bringing their client
to trial again, a motion was made in
the Wells circuit court before Judge
c. E. Sturgis by r. w. Slime, of Bluff
ton. and Jay Hindman, of Hartford
City, attorneys for Terrill. asking
that the case be redocketed and set
for trial.
Prosecuting Attorney A. G. Emsh-
weller, of Hartford City, did not
know that any such steps was con-
templated and was not present in
court, and the only attorney for the
State present was Charles G. Daley,
deputy prosecuting attorney, who nad
not been in the case at the original
trial and was not informed in the
matter He did not know that the
motion was to be filed until after he
arrived at the court room a few min
utes before court convened, and the
only step he was prepared to take
was to file an exception and the re-
docketing of the case will be argued
later.
The state probably will endeavor to
avoid new trial on the grounds that
Terrell is insane and that an insane
man cannot be tried on a criminal
charge, and that such trial in Ter
rells present condition would be
useless expense to the county.
Case all Mixed Up.
The famous case is now in most
complicated condition. Terrell was
tried and sentenced to prison for life,
became insane before sent to the pen
itentiary and was brought upon the
governors orders to the Richmond
asylum instead of being taken to pri-
son. His appeal to the Appellate
court resulted in reversal of the
lower court by the order to quash the
indictment. This left the case in the
same position as though it had never
been tried and made Terrell free
man so far as the first indictment and
trial was concerned. The state then
went on the belief that it was neces-
sary TO reindict Terrell and give him
another trial should he again become
sane. The defense held that the
quasl1ing of the old affidavit left him
still in the hands of the state with
no new indictment and no rearrest
necessary. They contended that so
long as there is a charge of murder
lodged against him he is entitled to
n trial

TALLMADGE CASES.
Court Overrules Part of Defendants
Pleas in Abatement, and Jury
Will Try Balance.


In the cases against the Tall
madges, the defense filed pleas in
| abatement. alleging a great many
grounds upon which they claimed
the indictments should be abated.
The government filed answers deny
ing many of the allegations in the
pleas, and also filed demurrer to one
portion of the plea alleging that the
grand jury which found the indict-
ments was not legally drawn. The
point claimed by the defense was
that Judge Pope, in drawing the
names of persons from the box to
serve as grand jurors excluded the
names of six persons from the list
drawn and did not permit them to
serve as jurors, and drew the names
of six other persons instead. The de-
murrer of the government to this part
of the plea was argued late yesterday
afternoon. A. NJ. Stevenson, of Den
yer, made the argument for the de.
fense, and the government was rep
resented by E. l.. Medler, of Albu-
querque, assistant U. S. Attorney.
1t was admitted that the allegation
in the plea concerning the rejection
of these six persons was true. Judge
Pope, however, held that the rejection
of these jurors was not violation
of the statutes and sustained the de-
murrer. In rendering his decision the
Judge stated that he realized that his
position gave the presiding Judge
great and unusual powers in the Sc
lection of grand juries, but that it
would legally exercise these powers
and properly perform his duties The
defense contended that if it was Ie-
gal to exclude six persons, he could
legally exclude any number
The defense admitted that Judge
Pope and the other officials acted in
good faith, but the contention was
that Notwithstanding their good faith
their acts were illegal.
A portion of the pleas of the de-
fense relating to the illegal drawing
of the jury in the Tallmadge cases
were abandoned today. The portion
of the pleas denied by answer will
be tried by the jury as issues of fact.
The attention of the court today was
taken up in securing a jury to try
the case. When court convened at 2
o'clock this afternoon FIVE jurors had
been secured.
