TROUBLE GROWS OUT
OF ATTACHMENT CASE
Gary Justice of the Peace Would
Keep Court Costs Out of the
Money Paid to Him in Compliance
With a Decision Handed Down By
Him in Case Recently.

I'VE intend to start impeachment
proceedings at once against Justice of
the Peace, Harley A. Townsley, the re-
cent candidate for judge of the supreme
court of Indiana on the charge of at
tempting to collect illegal fees. There
are several instances in which we be-
lieve him to be guilty of this act, and
we intend to prosecute him." said At
torney John NJ. Fox, of the firm of
Fox & Dunn.
The specific case which was cited
yesterday by Mr.. Fox was that of olga
Radisch VS.. Misha Jokov, which was
filed in the latters court and in which
the above attorneys appeared for the
complainants. An attachment of the
defendant for the sum of $50 was
sought against .Jokov and judgment
for the full amount was given to Fox
Dunn. The costs, however, the at
torneys say, was assessed against them
instead of against the defendants who
lost in the case.
Who Must Pay the Costs.
The amount of the costs was $3.50.
This they refused to pay, but after an
argument with the court the amount
of the costs was reduced SO, and that
amount was RENTED to them. Yes
terday, however, they received notif-
cation that the payment of the check
for that amount which they had re-
ceived, had been stopped. This means.
they say. that they will be expected
to pay all of the costs of the case,
amounting to $3.50
| The attorneys claim that in winning
the case, for the attachment they were
absolved from the payment of the costs
and that it should have been assessed
against the defendant. The above is
the one specific case in which the i'm
parchment proceedings will probably be
started against the local justice of the
peace.
The attorneys claim, however, that
there are several other instances in
which the same thing has happened and
they will be brought to light at the
proper time. Besides this charge they
have complaints against the judge of
another character, one of which occur
red in this same case.
Civil Suit Is Started.
Attorney Fox claimed that the $50
which they had due them by winning
the case was paid into the court by
the defendant in cash shortly after
the trial, and that this money was
held by court illegally. Judge Towns
ley claimed that an appeal had been
taken to the superior court and that
he had held it pending the appeal. In
contradiction to this. however. the at
torneys said that the money should
have been paid over at once. When
they did receive it, it was given them
in amounts different than tina: paid in.
and partly also in checks, dated ahead
they claiming that during this time
the money had been APPROPRIATED by
1.-THE judge for his own use.
, A civil suit was also started Saturday
J by Attorneys Fox & Dunn for the
amount of damages which they have
paid TO the Judge. Their attorney in

GARY BOYS ARE BEATEN
At MICHIGAN CITY

The Gary football team went to
Michigan City yesterday and was de-
feated by an aggregation known as the
West nds by the score of 40 to 0. The
defeat of the Gary team is laid to a
number of causes. among them being
the fact that the members of the team
would not practice and that some of
the heavier members on the team
failed show up for the trip.
The Gary eleven was beaten at all
stages of the game and acknowledged
its complete rout. The Gary manage
ment. however, secured a return game
at Gary for next Thanksgiving and
the team representing the steel city
promises to get in shape for a con-
test which will wipe out the disgrace
of the game yesterday.
About fifteen rooters went to Michi-
gan City with the Gary team yester-
day.

of North Side and Find
Quarry in Shacks.

The blind pig raids, which THE TIMES

off last week, were held Saturday and
when the spoils of war were taken to
the station the police had as evidence
that liquor is consumed in the shacks

haul obtained from part of the places
where they have been suspected of
selling liquor.
Those who were arrested with run
ming blind tiger" are John Mirtom,
Tony Kirk, Sam Milonoych and Kizo
Selarlya. These men all live near the
Lake Shore tracks and have been SUI
spected of the act for which they were
arrested for some time. There is no
question but what they will be bound
over to the superior court, although
prney Clarence Bretsch, who has
=. employed to defend them. says
that he believes that he will be able
to clear one or two of them.
There is no question but what there
has been. intoxicating liquor on the
premises. but the question which the
police will be compelled to prove is
that the fire water" was sold and not
server with the. meals at the shacks
The police say that they have the evil
dence that the liquor has been sold tc
the men for some time.
Since the closing of the saloons
some time ago the city has been full
of blind pigs and the police are de
termed to wipe them out. The crusade
against them. will continue.
