cials and well-known lawyers. who for
several years have been engaged in a
novel conspiracy to defraud the state OF

rated chiefly in odessa and Warsaw was
TO obtain possession OF such estates by
the use OF fraudulent documents or by
bringing forward false heirs. An order
placed with an engraver OF Vienna for a
duplicate OF an official seal led TO the dis
coverv OF the frauds The persons impl-
Gated are said to have derived about $780,

SEND ISSUES, Of
FACT TO A JURY

Judge Tanner today heard and held
for advisement complainant's motion
in the case OF Kenneth C. Mann VS..
Edward T. Mann that certain issues of
fact be submitted to a Jury.
This case involves charges OF fraud
in the transfer OF part OF an estate.
and the question is whether the court
will pass upon all questions involved
or ask the aid OF n jury.
Judge Tanner today said that since
the superior court had been in exist
ence. no Issues OF fact have been sent
to jury. Counsel for complainant
argued that that was because no one
had asked for such a submission. Coun-
sci for defendant thought the practi
had been previous to the establish
ment OF the superior court II the
court could best deal with all the facts
itself there should be no submission
TO a jury.
