Indianapolis, November 16.-By a
decision of the Supreme Court hand
ed down today, David e. Sherrick. for
mer Auditor of State, will get new
trial. and he will be returned from
the penitentiary at Michigan City to
this city at once for that purpose,
Sherrick wins on the main points IN
his appeal, the Supreme Court decld-
ing that the money which he was
charged with embeZzling and for
which he was convicted, was not
funds of the State of Indiana. but that
the money belonged to the insurance
companies that had paid it to him.
The contention of the prosecution
was that the money that had been
paid to Sherrick by the insurance
companies belonged to the State as
soon as he had received it from them
under color of his office, and that
when he failed to turn it into the
State treasury he was guilty of en-
bazzIement from the State. On this
theory of the case Sherrick was con-
victed but the Supreme Court rever-
ses the judgment on the ground that
while Sherrick had the money in his
possession he held il merely as agent
FOR the companies.
Sherricks Return Ordered.
AS soon as the decision was hand
ed down the clerk of the Supreme
return Sherrick to the custody o. the
Court issued an order to the warden
Of the Michigan City penitentiarv 70
sheriff of Marion county. SherTick
will be returned to this city tomorrow
In the custody of a prison guard.
He will then be turned over to the
sheriff and viii be released on bond
to await the further action of the
Marion County Criminal Court.
Then it will be mp to the prosecis-
tor to say what the future action will
be. If he thinks that he will still be
able to obtain a conviction at re-triaI 1
in view of the Supreme Courts decis-
ion, he will ask that the case be set
down for trial again. If he feels that
he would not be able to get a con-
viction he may move to nolpros the I
case. In the latter event Sherrick 4
would gain his liberty.
The decision of the Supreme Court /
does not of itself mean that Sherrick +
is TO be freed. 1t says that he shall .
be given a new trial in the Criminal +
Court.
Effect of Decision.
BY declaring that the money receiv-
ed by the State Auditor from the in
surance companies as foreign insur-
ance taxes were received by him mer-
ely as agent for the companies and
not as State official. the court sug-
gests the idea that the State can sue
the companies for any such taxes paid
to the Auditor which did not reach
the State Treasurer. This may open
up vast amount of litigation be-
tween the State and the insurance

ANCHOR ON CRAVE
Iron Relic of River Marks Rest
ing Place of Captain
David Upton.
SERVICE OF STEAMERS CREW
Men of Col. A. Mackenzie and Offic
ers of Corps of Engineers Place
Monument at Chippiannock.

a little service to which considerable
sentiment attaches was performed to
day, when the crew of the government
snag boat Col. a. Mackenzie, under
direction of Colonel c. w. Durham and
Captain Frank Martin. placed an an
Choir on the grave of Captain David Me-
Bride Upton at Chippiannock cemetery
as a memorial to the old time river
captain. The anchor is in itself one of
unusual interest. as it is a relic of the
early days of the Mississippi. 1t was
found near Montrose. Iowa. about five
years ago. during some work of govern
ment dredges. None OF the old resi-
dents along the lower rapids recall any
time when such an anchor was lost.
and where 1t came from is a mystery.
1t is of an entirely different type from
that now in use on Mississippi river
boats. and more nearly resembles
those found on sea vessels. 1t is sup
posed that in the pioneer days boat
from the lower river, venturing north,
lost the anchor on the rapids.
The anchor was left at the yards on
the rapids until the last time the
steamer Col. A Mackenzie came
north. when it was placed on board
and brought TO this city and placed on
the grave of Captain Upton. The an
Choir is a very fitting monument to the
memory of the man whose grave 1t
marks. and the fact that he was for five
years before his death, Sept. %. 1904,
at Red Wing. Mimi. master OF the
Mackenzie. adds to the interest in this
unique tribute by the crew of the boat
and the officers of the corps of enSin-
GERS here.
Was MacEenzie's Master.
Captain David Mcbride Upton at the
time OF his death was &c years of age.
He was born on the Muskingum river,
and in boynood began his career on
the river. He followed the Muskingum
and Ohio rivers for a time. and then
came to the Mississippi. Before the
civil war he was employed as pllo;
on the Northern line. running between
St. Louis and St. Paul During the civil
war he was engaged as pilot on the
government fleet in the lower river
He was engaged in the government rlV-
err service from 1873 to the time OF his
death. on the various snag boats which
were ultimately succeeded by the one
of which he was master when he died.
He was one of the most respected
men in the service of the government
On the river. and word of his death
brought sorrow TO all associated with
him. and to those who knew him. Gen
eraI Mackenzie. for whom the steamer
was named. expressed his sorrow and
regret in a telegram to the engineers
office here. As Captain Upton was
one of the old stamp of river masters.
ii is most appropriate that his grave
is marked with the iron relic OF even
earlier days.
