Judge Hoover sustained motion
made by the defense to quash an In.
dictment against Ira Grunden,
charged with being an accessory after
the fact to the murder Of J. b. Say.
Ter at Crescent City on July II. The

crime who have already been indicted
are related, Ira Grunden Is q son OF
John Grunden and brother of Mrs. ].
b. Sayler The State did not combat
the motion and Ira Grunden was
shortly afterward released from Gus.
tody. Whether the State will bring
the attention of the next grand jury
to the case and attempt to have a new
indictment returned against Ira Is not
known.

The Globe-republican., 1909-04-08

When the announcement was made
several months ago that Mr.. Taft
would use an automobile during his
term as President, much rivalry de-
veloped among the leading manufac-
turers for the honor Of selling him a
car and the public watched with in
terest to see what Mr.. Tafts choice
would be. The knowing ones predicted
that the White Steamer would be Sc
lected and they pointed out that Presi-
dent Roosevelt had used White Steam
ers for two years at his summer home
at Oyster Bay and had recommended
this make to Mr.. Taft as the most de-
sirable.
This prediction proved correct, al
though Mr.. Taft did not rely solely
on Mr.. Roosevelt's recommendation,
but, with his usual thoroughness, de-
termined to have an investigation
made of all the principal makes. Ac-
cordingly, he asked several officers OF
the War Department to look into the
matter for him, and they tested many
makes of cars, visited number OF
factories so that they might see what
materials were used, and, finally, they
investigated the records Of the differ
ent types of cars in public contests
and in private service.
The Globe-republican., 1909-04-08

When their labors were completed,
the officials reported unanimously to
Mr.. Taft in favor Of the White, and,
accordingly, car Of this make was
Immediately ordered from the manu-
facturers, The White Company OF
Cleveland.
The new car was delivered to Mr..
Taft in Washington a few days be-
fore his Inauguration and since that
time 1t has been In almost constant
use. There has not been a day when
the President or some member OF
his family have not been seen riding
around the National Capital In the
new car. 1t is limited that Mr.. Taft
likes fast travelling and that when
he rides out into the open country, ne
does not always insist that the speed
of the car be kept within the legal
limits.
W. ]. Urquhart, manager Of the west
ern branch of the White Company, 239
Michigan Ave-, Chicago, ILL.,, said re-
Gently to a correspondent of this
paper: 1--WE are receiving many in
quiries each day asking for full de-
tails regarding the construction Of

sending copies of our catalog. Mr.

on either door. In other words
when we make car for the Presi
dent of the United States there Is ~
way in which we can make 1t an.
better than the car which you, q
anybody else, can purchase from US.
Some of those writing to n
about Mr.. Taft's car say that, {
though they are very desirous
having car like Mr.. Taft's, tn
are afraid that such car Is son
what larger and more expensive tn
they desire. In reply to such lette

one can secure an exact duplicate

the same qualities, but of smaller
mensions, for only $4,000. Judging /
the demand for White cars. a good p
portion of those desiring to purchs
automobiles are quite content to trl
