COMPANY DEFU net
Firm Which Formerly Operat-
ed Bucket Shop Here
DiSContinues.
HEAVY INDEBTEDNESS,

The Odell Brokerage company of
Cincinnati, which has become defunct,
formerly operated bucket shop" in
this city and one at Cambridge City.
Thomas Cogan, attorney for the com.
pany, has been appointed its receiver
The company has been doing business
for several years under various names
and at one time had over 3Op branch
houses. The Indebtedness is placed
at $15oooo. The business is to be
closed out
Aside from its business dealings the
Odell company, under its various
names has been before the public for
a good many yeras because of the diff.
ferent kinds of litigation in which it
was engaged. Probably the most no
table suits were those in which the
Chicago board of trade, the Western
Union and the Odell people were the
principals. These suits involved the
delivery to the Odell company of the
quotations of dealings on the Chicago
board. and one such suit is still in the
caurts awaiting settlement. On ac,
count Of the many changes in the firm
name II became necessary TO renew
several Of these suits. the record OF
which was thereby considerably com
plicated. One of these suits has been
carried 10 the supreme court of the
united States

LITIGATION MAY
NOT END At THE
PRESENT HEARING
Appeals Are Probable in the
Smith-Vaughan Case No
Matter What the Decision
Rendered by the Jury.
JUDGE HAS BEEN
CAREFUL IN CASE.
Has Carefully Ruled on Differ
ent Questions Which Might
Have Made Another Trial
Necessary:

There is every indication that in
case the jury hearing the trial of the
Smith-Naughan preach of promise suit
decides in favor of the plaintiff, an
appeal will be taken to higher court.
In case of a disagreement, it is more
than likely new trial will be asked
for by the plaintiff. In case the jury
decides against the plaintiff. an appeal
is likely to be taken. 1t is practically
present trial may be. the litigation will
not end unless in case the plaintiff
wins, the defendant pays the amount
of damages awarded.
That the defense is preparing its
way for an appeal is made more evi-
dent each day the trial continues.
Countless objections have been made
to the testimony of Witnesses by the
defendants counsel and in case the
court overrules the objections, eXcep-
tions to the rulings have been taken.
1t is upon these exceptions that the
defense will base its right to appeal.
As further indication of the probable
ity of an appeal being asked for by
the defendant, w. Caylor. of Chicago,
a member of the defendants counsel
and son-in-law of the defendant, has
been heard to ask questions in regard
TO the probable cost of a transcript of
the evidence in the case
Judge Careful.
Judge II. c. Fox. who is presiding.
has stated that up to the prese Mt time,
no error has been made in the rul-
ings The judge has been unusually
careful in his deliberations previous to
ruling on legal points that may arise
He has called upon counsel to furnish
authorities TO substantiate their argu.
ment in a number of instances. He
has dismissed the jury a number OF
times so that he might consult author.
tues and twice has closed court ear

the attorneys were involved in areu.

members hear remarks that might

the merits of the case

Local Labor Men Would Have

John Mitchell, the famous labor
leader. has been asked by the Central
Labor Temple of this city to deliver an
address here. 1t is expected Mr.. Mitch

matter of the date will be left to his
convenience. The local union labor

Court Rules That Duke Must
Remain in the County Jail
Until Admitted to EaSthav.
en- Hospital. J
CASE OF YOUNG MAN
APPEALS STRONGLY.
Grieved Himself Into Insanity
Over Disappearance of His
Wife and Now lmagInes
Himself Pursued

Nothing can be done toward granting
the petition of Ora Duke. that the
young man who has beon adjudged iD
sane and is confined at the county jail
be released. They offer TO assume ths
guardianship of him and take upon
themselves the responsibility for his
conduct. The petition was refused
yesterday afternoon by Judge II. G
Fox, after Il consultation with DIR. S.
f. Smith, superintendent of the East.
ern Indiana Hospital for the Insane.
DR.. Smith and the judge both held
they have no jurisdiction in the case
at its present status.
The case of Duke is one filled with
phases that appeal 10 sympathy. The
insanity of the young man developed
subsequent to a protracted period OF
remOrse occasioned by the disappear
ance of his wife Nothing that rela-
tives could do for him succeeded in ap-
peasing his grief. Members of tho
family endeaVored TO keep him at home
and did not inform the authorities of
his condition until it became so bad
that dangerous tendencies were exhib-
tied. Then it was the police were no.
titled and Duke was taken into custo-
dY.

Fanciful Ideas.

Duke was examined by 4 sanity com
mission in Squire Abbott's court some
time later and adjudged insane. He
was taken to the county Jail TO await
admittance to Easthaven. Owing 10 the
crowded conditions at that institution
il has been impossible to take him
there. The prisoner imagines he il
pursued by an agent of the secret SER
vice who desires to injure him. At
frequent intervals Duke attempts to
fight off these imaginary antagonists
The parents of Duke appealed to
Squire Abbot and he gave them a req
uisitiOn for his release, which was d.
rected TO the sheriff When the pa
per came into the hands of Sheriff Mer-
edith, he appealed TO Judge Fox for
guidance. and the judge held the mat
ter was beyond the power of the sher-
iff or himself. 1t was To obtain the
opinion of DR. Smith that the confer
cnCe was held
The law directs that the sheriff shall
have the guardianship of insane pa
tients. who have been considered dam
gerOus to run at large and shall con-
fine them at the county Jail. II IL
because he is held responsible for
Duke legally, that the sheriff fears to
accord him his liberty. If the man
were TO become a victim of a sudden
attack of arrangement and commit
harm upon some person. whom he
might imagine to be a foe. the sheriff
might be liable to reproach and prob
able litigation.

Marshall Case. Similar.

A situation similar 10 that in the
shall. This young man has been in
the county jail for more than go DAYS
awaiting admittanec to the hospital.
He was arrested almost one year ago
and charged with attempt to kill his
father. Grant Marshall Young Mar
shall returned To his fathers home and
shot him in the mouth. Later he was
adjudged insane and the criminal
charge against him was dismissed
Since being placed in jail young Mar
shall has shown no dangerous tenden-
cies. authorities say. His father has
been appealed TO provide funds for an
operation TO remove pressure Of Lne
skull on his sons brain. but has refus-
ed. The senior Marshall is said TO fear
his own safety IL his son is at large.
In case Marshall we're at Eastharen, he
probably would be operated upon by
the hospital surgeons. He can not get
into the hospital. however. and IL In
claimed the father will not pay for tho
operation, so the young man must re-
main at the county Jail. The court
has no jurisdiction TO releace him.
There is practically no probability
either Marshall or Duke will be ad-
mitted TO Easthaven until after the
completion Of The new buildings. The
circumstances surrounding their cases
are unusual

PARTNERSHIPS FIGHT
PRIMARY OCCURS TODAY IT
 CHOOSE 4 GOVERNOR.
Fiercest Campai@n Ever Known in state Comes to Close--Eov- ernor Patterson Opposed by
 Former Senator CarInncHk.

Nashville Tenn. June 2S.--Tomor- row a Democratic primary occurs in Tennessee, which marks the close of the. nercest campaign ever known in the State. Governor M. R. Patterson and former United States Senator E. W. Carmack are candidates for the guber~ material nomination and around these two a storm has ragged which, in bit- terness and intensity of feeling, has no equal in Tennessee history. Tuesday the two closed a long series of joint discussions which has carried them over the length and breadth of the State.
 Since the joint discussions ended, the candidates have continued the arduous campaign separately. Tonight they both closed in this city.
 Statewide prohibition had been made the issue, Carmack advocating it, while Patterson has defended his administra- tion, under which practically local ops ton is in vogue. The action of the State Committee in ordering a pri- mary on the county unit plan. which means a convention later, has also been a prominent issue.
 The Carmack forces urged a State- wide general primary and have de- nounced the plan adopted in unmeas- ured terms. The prohibition question has attracted to CarmacS the support of the W. c. T. U., and the Anti Saloon League. Women orators have stumped the State in his behalf and to. morrow the woman and children are to continue the work at the polls.
 So great has been the fight over the Governorship. that the fact that other nominations arc to be made have been largely overlooked. One candidate for the Supreme Court is to be named and one for Railroad Commissioner.
