FORGER GOES FREE
Clever Young Lawyer Gives Prosecu-
ton of Vann a Surprise.

About all the protection surrounding
the Kansas forgery laws was upset in
the Shawnee county court late this
afternoon when Thomas Lillard,
young lawyer, sprung a bunch of SUI
preme court decisions which threaten
to insure safety for professional cheek
writer's The surprise for the state
came nthe L. ]. Vann case when the
defense asked for instructions which
virtually meant an order to the jury
to return a verdict of not guilty.
In the Vann case, the defendant
was charged with forging endorse
mentS to a humble of checks passed
in Topeka last fall. 1t is probable
that the bunch of checks bore names
of fictitious payees and payers. Vann
signed a name on the back of the
checks and secured the money at a
number of stores. The next day they
We're protested.
Evidence failed to show that Vann
did not have authority from the payce
to Use mis- name and Judge Dana held
that this right was presumed to rest
in the defendant until disprOven by the
state. 1t then became a burden on the
state to produce the payee. This could
not be done 0nd Judge Dana ruled for
the defense. In the information, 1t was
not charged that the names Of the
payee or payer were fictitious; and Lii
lard Strung a rumber of strong su-
preme court decisions from California
and Ohio courts UNFOLDING his conten-
ton.
Now the county attorneys office is puz-
lied as to a method of procedure in for
gerry cases. 1t was confessed by County
Attorney Simon that it is practically i'm
possible to secure convictions under the
kansas law where fictitious names are
used by forgerers under the court rulings
sprung in the Vann case. This is the
first time that the decisions have ever
been produced in a criminal case in Shaw
nee county They were so concise and
clean cut that Judge Dana did not hest
tate to rule for the defendant
Vann was arrested In november, after
serving sly months in the county Jail on
a former forgery charge Liilard was ap-
nointed to defend him.

TAFT STOCK IS RISING
Action of Oklahoma District Has That
Effect.

Washington, Jan. 25.@The outcome
of the Republican convention in the
Fourth congressional district of Okla
homa Tuesday, which instructed two
delegates to the Chicago convention
for President Taft, despite strenuous
efforts by the self appointed Roose-
welt supporters for the former presl-
dent, has sent the stock of the presi-
dent rising among the political lead
ers in Washington today.
The methods used by the Roosevelt
boomers, including balloon ascen-
sion, a boy Rough Rider on horse
back in the convention hall and other
sensational adjuncts, although believed
by Oklahomans in congress to be ex-
aggerated in the press dispatches, have,
nevertheless, had a SOLDERING erect
upon some of the members of congress
who have been loudest in their Roose-
welt talk in recent weeks.
The Taft leaders are jubilant thet
the first test of the political strength
of the president turned out so favor
ably and they predict great moral ef-
feet on succeeding conventions
