Supreme Co.'S Agrees to Consider
Question rrecsness of Judge
Towner's S ion Rsvokns Convict
ed san's Parole Fro" States
Prison =

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines. Nov. l6.-The supreme
court today declined to take jurisdic-
ton of the habeas corpus case OF Leroy
Ware, the convicted Seymour banker,
and asked that the attorneys prepare
stipulation of the facts in the case
with written arguments on the motion
TO revoke the orders of Judge Towner
1t appears there is some doubt as TO
the court having any right to inter
fere in such Il case. Warden Sanders
WAC is present with Mr.. Ware, the
prisoner. and the attorneys, are all
anxious to nave it settled. but do not
know whether they can at once COM
ply with the wishes of the court.
Ware had been paroled but was ar
rested and reincarcerated by Judge
Towner of Corydon under decision
in which he held that the parole board
had no power to liberate men who were
convicted prior TO July 4, 1907. when
the indeterminate sentence law Went
into effect
Immediately after this reincarcera-
tion j. l.. Livingston. Wares attorney.
made application for writ of habeas
corpus 10 the supreme court. Justice
Emlln Mccain issued it, making it re-
turnable on Nov. 16.
Attorney Livingston based his
habeas corpus proceedings upon the
claim that Judge Towners decision is
not right and that by it he violated
the parole granted Ware by the board
of parole.
This pleading puts Judge Towner's
opinion forward as one of the main
questions to be decided in the case
and the supreme court, in handing
down its opinion. will have to pass on
the soundness or unsoundness of
Judge Towner's opinion.
The decision of the high tribunal is
being awaited with much interest, for
If it upholds Judge Towner then many
convicts out on parole who were I'm.
prisoned before the new law went into
effect will be subject to immediate re.
commitment upon the motion of the
| county attorney in the county to which
they were convicted.

CORPORATION TAX LAW volD7
Secretary MacVeigh Finds Doubtful
Clause in New Statute.

Washington, Nov. 16.-WMh the best
corporation lawyers in the world burn
Ing midnight electricity trying to poke
holes in the new corporation tax law.
1t is feared that it's weak point has
been discovered by the men who must
enforce it.
FRANKLIN MacVeagh, secretary of the
treasury, and Commissioner Gabell of
the Internal revenue division would rest
much better tonight if they We're sat
isfied that the new act did not impose
tax of per cent upon the interest
received by corporations from govern
ment bonds. Commissioner Gabell mas
passed the problem along to Secretary
MacVeagh. He is now considering that
and several other perplexing questions
preparatory to putting an o. X. on the
official circular which the division Of
internal revenue will issue as soon as
the doubts can be cleared up.
If the question is sent by the treas
ury department to Attorney General
Wickersham, he is prepared to hold
promptly that the bonds are not tax
able. He drew the act and depends
upon the statute putting United States
bonds outside of the reach of the tax
collector to keep the corporation tax
whole under the assaults of the Cor
porations.

FAvoRs CENTRAL PLAN
Former Director Of the Mint Roberts
Advocates Proposed Central Bank in
Address Before Bankers Meeting, as
Most Feasible Method.

Kansas City, Nov. 16.-George E
Roberts, president of the Commercial
National Bank of Chicago, addressing
meeting here today, declared himself
in favor Of the proposed central bank
plan, which, he said, offers a more
comprehensive treatment of the cur

He says it provides abundant elas-
ticity, under responsible control; pro-
vides a fiscal agency for the govern
ment thru which its enormous collec-
tions and disbursements may be
handled with the least disturbance to
the money market, and would give un-
ity and cohesion and elasticity to the
entire bankine system, which can b,
given in no other way.

Government to Compel Sugar Trust I


Government to Compel Sugar Trust to
Make Good Its SteaIines.
Washington, Nov. 16.-Shorn of all
legal verbiage and circumlocution, the
attitude of the United States govern
ment against the American Sugar Re-
fining Company is this:
Every cent legally due to the gov
ernment by reason of false weighing
shall be collected, even if the payment
of the money means the financial ami
hf1ation of the trust.
Every person in any way connected
with the trust against whom evidence
of completely in the crime can be Sc
cured, Will be sent to the penitentiary,
If possible, without respect to the char
acter of the position or the job held.
Altho every government official hav-
ing any connection with the case de-
clines to be quoted for publication, it
can he said upon authority that Presi-
dent Taft Secretary of the Treasury
MacVeagh and Attorney General Wick
ersham have reached the unanimous
determination to press relentlessly into
the trusts vitals the inquiry as to it's
criminal conduct and that every per-
son engaged in the investigation, or
having any knowledge of its affairs, is
melted to his greatest endeavors by the
knowledge that the wringing of more
millions of ill-gotten gains from the
trust and putting some of its officers
behind the bars will be considered a
crowning achievement of administra-
ton officials.
To put the matter in the light of
politics as we'll as law, high govern
ment official states the case in this
way:
There will be nothing left of the
trust when we get thru with it; we
will get every dollar due, punish the
guilty, and show that the Taft admin
istration can accomplish what the for
mer one did not"

extreme bitter feeling among the two
factions that has been enlarged upon
in the dailies The subject is being
argued quite freely, hut in way that
has not caused enmity. A large con-
gregation was in attendance at both of
the sermons on Sunday and some of
those present expected to hear sensa-
