Who Is to Blame?

Christ Ritter, q well known citizen
of West Hammond. is in the village jail
In West Hammond on the charge of
assaulting John Okray, a police officer.
He claims that Okray assaulted him.
Judge Frank Green went over to the
village hall for the purpose of per-
hitting the prisoner to give bond, but
the police have disappeared. This is
In line with their policy of keeping
prisoners against whom they have a
grudge in Jail as long as they can be-
fore releasing them on bond.

offer that the money has been paid"
said Patterson. And Atwood fen into
the trap. He produced the Cancelled
voucher and the affidavit from zim-
norman. There's the evidence" said
he.
It looked as though the defense had
scored big point until Patterson pro-
duced copy of the agreement between
Atwood and Zimmerman. and then the
court began to see that there was
something crooked in the transaction
Zimmerman then admitted that the
money had not actually been paid over.
The court declared that the situation
was a serious one, and announced that
he intended taking a whole day to go
to the bottom. Of the matter He set the
case until the 18th of this month. when

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

- .
indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 1s.--Thomas
Taggart and Governor Marshall had a
conference in the office of the Cover
nor at the state house yesterday aft
ernoon. and it would probably be worth
a good deal to have been a little mouse
In corner listening to the converse
ton that took place between them
Taggart had just returned from Wash
ington. He was there attending the
meeting of the Democrtic national
committee. and incidentally to boost
Governor Marshall for the Presidency.
1t is supposed that he made report to
Marshall on conditions as he found
them. And it is safe to say THAI he told
of conditions as he actually found them
he did not give the Governor very
pleasant half hour.
Those who recall the bitter fight
which ragged for SO long between Tag
CART and Marshall for control of the
state committee. will relish the news or
the conference behind closed doors
which these two politicians held yes
terday. Those who would expect to
see them using meat axes on each other
may assauge their fears with the In
formation that there was no bloodshed
Not even a harsh word was spoken, II
is believed. The bitterness of thel-
fight. and the luminosity" which they
have shown toward each other in their
"ferocious" political battles of late-all
of this together did not cause the BIT
terness to ooze from the Governors
office and trickle down the stairs OF the
state house
This conference is being pointed to
