tempting to gain his liberty and to pre-

stand trial for the robbery of the In
gals jewelry store. King has secured
a local attorney for his defense, and
he is putting up a good fight TO prevent
him from being taken to Rock Island
They raised the point of law that ow-
ing to the fact that King had not been
indicted by the grand jury at Rock Is
land, he could not be taken back there
under the requisition papers which
have been issued for him and which
were presented in court this morning
The attorneys in the case decided they
would try the case on its merits the
latter part Of the week. This means
they will secure a number of witness
es from Rock Island to prove that he
has ueen guilty of the crime as al

The matured shares which ! hold

case is sustained by the opinion of
my attorney, Mr.. Wood, and other
first class attorneys who think, on
the proper presentation of my claim.
that the courts will rule in my ia
vor. Had my claim been dealt with
in fair manner it would have been
closed and would have been to the
advantage of the shareholders of the
building association; the affairs of
the association could be closed, the

paying would be stopped.
