FORFEITED BAIL

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
DOVER, Del, March S-Senator
Millers bill introduced yesterday to

or two exceptions no bail bonds that
have been Jumped" or forfeited in
many years have been collected by the
Stat. There was some doubt as to
who should sue TO recover on forfeited
bonds or recOgnizances, and for that
reason the jumping" and forfeiture
of bail seldom has resulted in the per-
son who furnished the bong being re-
quired TO pay. Senator Miller's bill
