dant in This Case.
LITIGATION is FOR
FEES TO THE FERRET
City Has Ordered County Au-
ditor Coe Not to Pay CON-
mission on City's Share of
Tax Collected.

City Attorney, A. NJ. Gardner, an
nounced this morning that the city
would ask the privilege OF the court
to become a party to the suit of Wash
ington E. Lowe, tax inquestor against
Demas s. Coe, county auditor in which
Mr.. Lowe asks for a writ Of mandate.
ordering Mr.. Coe to issue a warrant
for $69SS1 as commission for paid
in taxes. on sequestered property dis
civered by the ferret.
The city has ordered the county
auditor not to issue any warrants in
the interest of Mr.. Lowe, in which the
city's portion of the paid in taxes on
scequestered property is involved. 1t
was for this reason that Mr.. Coe re-
fused to issue the warrant on January
8. following the approval of the Fer
ret's bill by the county commissioners.
Subsequently. suit was brought
against Mr.. Coe By Mr.. Lowe and
Judge Fox ruled that Mr.. Coe should
either issue a warrant for the amount
of Mr.. loves claim or else appear
before the court on January 20. and
show cause why he should not do SO.
Mr.. Coe stated that he would allow
his side to go by default and thus
give the court an early opportunity to
decide. But now that the city wishes
to be made a party to the proceedings,
matters may be delayed.

action similar to that of this city. as
regards to the allowing of comis.
sion for paid in taxes due these re-
spective corporations. What action
they will take as regards to the suit
against Mr.. COe, is problemetical. but
it is presumed that they will also
ask to become parties to the suit At
the recent meeting of the township
trustees, T. J. Study was consulted
and he advised the trustees to con
tinue their objection to the payment
of commission for the portion OF
paid in tax due the townships. which
Mr. Lowe causes to be paid in. The
city, the incorporated towns and the
townships claim that the county com
missioners have no authority to con
tract for the payment of a commission
of taxes due these organizations, and
on this they are basing their conten
tions. AS regards to corporations the
law seems to be plain that the com
missioners do not have the right tc
make contract such as Mr.. Lowe
holds. but in regard to the township

Flaws in the Confession Have
Been Found by Laporte
Officials.
SCHELL REMAINS SILENT
PASTOR TO WHOM MAN MADE
CONFESSION RECENTLY WROTE
PROSECUTOR THAT HE WOULD
NOT GIVE IT OUT.

Laporte. Ind, Jan. 15.-The alleged
confession by Ray Lamphere, sent ON,
from st. Louis. aroused little interest
here because ii contained several
flaws. Prosecutor Smith went over
the story and then made this state
ment:
The story is so manifestly wrong
in many important details that l am
unable to put any stock in it. l fully
believe. in fact know, that Lamphere
made confession to the Rev. DIR.
Schell, but DR.. Schell has never given
me the details of that confession, and
he has just written me that he will
never will make it public. In this ST
Louis story. Lamphere is alleged to
have told that Jennie Olson was chlo-
reformed and burned the night Mrs
Bella Guinness and her three children
lost their lives. Jennie disappeared
long before Lamphere ever became ac-
quaintd with Mrs. Guinness. Only four
charred bodies were found in the fire
those of Mrs. Guinness and the three
children. When the burial ground
was explored Jennie Olson's badly de-
composed body was found. 1t had
been in the ground more than a year.
Another Flaw in Confession.
Lamphere. according to the purport
ed confession. said he bought chloro'
form for Mrs. Guinness to kill three
men, and that he helped her kill one
man and assist in burying three. Dur
ing the time Lamphere worked fol
Mrs. Guinness only one victim came tC
Laporte. Andrew Helgelein. and it was
the events of the night he was killed
January IA. 1908, that started the trou
BILE between Mrs. Guinness and hel
hired man.
Mrs. Guinness had no third hus
band. When the real confession
comes out, if it ever does, and 1 hops
| it does, for l am as anxious to know al
| the details as anybody else, ii will no
be as thin as this st Louis story"
DR.. Schell, president of the lows
Wesleyan university, Mt Pleasant. Ia
who was pastor of the First Metho
dist church here when Lamphere Wa,
in Jail and when he obtained the onl.
real confession, writes friends her
that he is in a very uncomfortable po

confession. He says he had rathe

I0LEARN AEROPLANE
French Army Officers Have
Been Oetaied to Study
Methods.
ARE CRITICISED FOR DELAY
(American News Service)


Paris, Jan. 15.-For some time past
the French military authorities have
been rather severely criticised for ap-
parently neglecting to draw any profit
from the recent progress made in avia-
ton. This is no longer true, as both
the military Governor of Jaris and the
Minister for war have offered an op.
portunity to officers to practice with
new machines, specially purchased for
the purpose.
The reason given for the delay is
that it could not be decided what type
of planes to choose. The three types
of aeroplanes chosen are said to be
IA Wright, a Farman, and Bleriot
machine. Officers have begun to learn
to pilot them at Chalias. in Moudon
and on the Croi1 de Hinsfield, neal
