Chicago, Dec. 14.-Francis Hurlbert,
the 17-year-old son Of Arthur G. Hurl-
bert, OF Lien ElIyn. Ill, who is in jaiI

his father meant just what he said
when he advised him to stay in prison
and when he got out become mayor and
get even with his prosecutors
Although he has been advised several
times that he can obtain the release of
his son for $3.50. Mr.. Hurlbert said last
night that he had no notion of sending
money for any such purpose.
The parent is convinced that the
scheme is one of blackmaiI and there
fore refuses to listen to it. Then too,
he believes that his son should be in
jail that he may learn humanity
against the oppressed.
Il have written the boy a letter in
which 1 told him to turn his expert
ences Ito profit for further USE" said
Mr.. Hurlbert last night. Il have re-
ceived letters from a man who signs
himself an attorney telling me that the
jail is insanitary, but I will not be
moved by any of these scheming per-
sons.''
Mr.. Hurlbert said that from what he
could learn, his son was a victim of cir
cumstances. He expressed himself as
being thoroughly convinced of his sons
innocence in connection with the dis
appearance of a ring

TAX IS RESISTED.
England Tries to Levy on an Estate
in America.

London, Dec. 14.-The important
question as to whether American
estates inherited by persons domiciled
in Great Britain, but which have never
actually been transferred to this coun-
try are liable to estate duty, was raised
in the chancery division of the high
court of justice. The suit arose in
connection with the fortune inherited
from her brother by the late Consuelo
Duchess of Manchester, who was a
daughter of Antonio Yznaga de Vale
of Louisiana and Cuba.
The executors of the countess will
resisted the demands of the British
revenue authorities for death duty on
the whole of her estate.
Counsel of the executors pointed out
that 100000 of the property was
still in America and had never come
to Great Britain.

TO CALL ON HOUSE
Attorney General Waits an Or
der From Stubs.
Governor Intimates Next Act
VIII Soon Begin.
LINDSEY is WRONG
Executive Displeased With Work
of Topeka Lawyer.
Investigation to Be Made in
Southeast Kansas.

Attorney General Dawson will soon
subpoena Jay E. House. the Topeka
newspaper man, TO make him tell what
he knows about violations of the pro-
hibitory law in Kansas. The supreme
court decided last week that the at
torney general would have to obey the
mandate Of the governor in this mat
ter.
81 viii confer with the governor to-
day about it, said Mr.. Dawson, and
If he is still of the same mind, will
subpoena Mr.. House at once. As some
four months have elapsed since Mr.
House drank beer over a bar in a
small town. do not suppose that MS
testimony will be very valuable at
this time. / suppose the governor will
want his Mr.. Trickett to conduct the
fnQuisition."
The governor, when asked today
about the House 1nqulsltlon, stated
that he was of the same mind about
the matter. So the House inquisition
win be the next number in the Vaude-
Vile show on the prohibition law cir
cult
That is, it will be, unless the latest
developments from Cherokee county
crowd it out of the limelight- Word
has come to the governor that that
old war horse among prohibition
workers, Judge Lindsey of Topeka, has
recommended that convicted jointists
be let off with fines and the Jail SEN
Dawson worker in the vineyard The
governors henchmen, Bramlette,
Erickson, Jones and Armstrong, have
notified the governor that these Lind
sey recommendations are wrong. The
governor is exercised over the matter
and will order an investigation. The
governor said today:
Governor Is Angry.
81 am not pleased with the Lindsey
recommendations And Judge Sapp
of the Cherokee court appears to be
more in favor of the non-enforcementl
forcement- He IS letting the convicted
jointists off with too light sentences"
On the other hand, Attorney Cen
eraI Dawson seems to be well salts
fled with the work of Judge Lindsey
IN Cherokee county. He had a letter
today from Lindsey, which reads as
follows:
Armstrong. Norris. Erickson and
Shaner all got here this morning and
the certified entries from the internal
revenue office got in all right. The /
fellows began pleading guilty as fast
as their cases were called. Pat Quinn, |
J. B. Martin, Lich CoWan and Dick /
Martin were among those pleading
guilty We also took an order for the /
detention of the J. B. Martin stuff tax /
en- at the cold storage in Weir City |
This is the eighty barrels of beer from
which the thefts We're made as it was
coming to Columbus. Several have
asked to be permitted to plead guilty |
tomorrow and I am inclined to think |
that all our first cases will bring pleas
of guilty OF convictions
Attorney General Dawson called on |
Governor Stubs late this afternoon.
He was informed by the governor that
he would expect him to call House as |
soon as Mr. Nichett can be present at |
the hearing.
