COURT ORDERS BANK
TO DIG UP THE CASH

In spite of the formal assertions
Of Attorney Sam Stems that Judge
Hinkle had not the jurisdiction to
order the Old National bank to turn
over Helen Kubillus' deposits to
satisfy judgment given Ben Bres-
chill on promissory note, signed
by her husband, the court rendered
judgment to the plaintiff this
morning for the recovery OF $503.75.
He also instructed the bank to dig
up. A promissory note at three
months for $500 was given by
Adolph and August Kubillus to
Breschli, February z, 1903. When
the note was matured the Kubillis
refused to pay. It was learned that
Helen Kubillus, wife of Adolph. had
a deposit of $1100 in the Old Ma
tional bank, but so far 1t Ia de-
clared that the Judge has no juris-
diction over the bank and that 1t
has not been shown what parts Of
the deposit there belongs to the diff
ferent defendants In the case. Lit
igation Is said to be already started
to decide that part Of the question.

to go ahead with the inquiry In
spite Of it's action Saturday in ask
ing discharge unless Judge Huneke

The court refused this but the
Jury began its session again this
afternoon. Prosecutor Pugh went

who Is q stenographer. An inter
estins phase of the present situa'

happen to witness who informs
on leaving the room whether

held by some attorneys not en-

though he told none blu the court.
The first witness this afternoon
was George e. Wright, secretary of
