COX INDICTMENTS
ARE QUAsHEO
MOTION OF REPUBLICAN LEAD
ER's ATTORNEYS GRANTED IN
CINCINNATI COURT.
ESCAPE FOR NOTORIOUS BOSS
Judge Finds Violation of Constitution
al Rights in Testimony Of 1906
Case Has Been Fought Be-
fore Fifteen Judges.

Cincinnati, May 22.-Motions t.
quash the perjury indictments against
George B. Cox. banker and Republican
political leader, made by his attorneys
two weeks ago, were granted by
Judge William T. Dickson. Judge
Dickson found the indictments defect
i've in substance. this phase of the
decision operating to free Cox from
re Indictment on the same set of al
legged facts by IN subsequent jury.
Cox was indicted on February 81
and his case mas been fought before
Is judges of the common pleas circuit
and supreme courts of Ohio, the bat.
tie of technicalities starting when Cox
swore off the bench Judge Frank Cor.
man, then sitting in the criminal
branch of the court of common pleas.
Fought Prosecutors Right.
From this point the attorneys fought
the right OF a prosecutor to take SINH
lar action through the circuit court to
the supreme court of the state. the
latter body giving out a finding which
virtually confirmed the position taken
by Cox's attorneys that the common
pleas court of Hamilton county had
suficient jurisdiction to dispose of the
questions involved.
Judge Charles J.. Hunt thereupon
held the Cox affidavit against Judge
German sufficient, oyerruled a similar
afidavit by the prosecutor directed
ouasrus U,,d0a Dsorso and rouHrnod
the latter as the trial judge. The mo-
ton to quash was originally made be-
fore Judge German. but it reverted to
Dickson when the latter vas finally
named to hear the case for and against
Cox.
Judge Dickson holds In substance
that in calling Cox before the grand
jury in 1906 and compelling him TO
testify there, and then indicting him
for perjury because of that testimony,
there was a violation of his constitu-
tional right.
The Indictments against Cox
charged that in testifying before a
grand jury in 1906 he declared that
he had received none of the money
paid by various banks to county
E~treasurers as ~gratufties" for the de.
post of county funds in the institu-
tons, the existence of these g~ratuities
having been brought out before the
Drake investigating committee of the
state legislature.
The grand jury of January. 1911.
however, charged it had information
that he did receive interest money
from Tilden r. French and John HI.
Gibson while they were county treas
urers, the Indictment asserting that
he was given $500 by Gibson and
81, 500 by French.

Washington, May 23.-Impressive
ceremonies marked the unwilling to-
day OF the memorial to Major Len
FAINT, the French engineer who laid
out the plans for the city of Washing
ton, at Arlington. President Taft,
Senator Root and the French ambas-
sador. M. Jusserand, delivered brief
addresses, and the occasion was given
a degree of military pomp by the
presence of a considerable number of
the troops stationed in Washington
and Fort Myer.
For many years the body of Major
L'Enfant lay in a modest grave on
the old Digges farm, in Prince Georges
county, Md. HI. B. F. mcfarland, at
that time president of the board Of
district commissioners, took a lively
interest in the project to remoye Ma
jor L'Enfant's remains to Arlington.
and congress finally authorized the
commissioners to expend $1,000 in
transferring the remains. The body
was reinterred at Arlington on the
afternoon of April %. 1903, after in
.teresting services at the capital.
