WRITES LETTER TO

That there are over five hundred
Iable-bodied men who have refused to
pay the 81 county road tax or work it
out on the roads is the report District
Attorney Alexander Read has heard
And he proposes to get busy.
II the tax is not paid by November
Goth, Mr.. Read intends to file individ-
ual suits. So he states in the follow
ing letter:
Santa Fe, N. NJ, Nov 5. 1913.
Hon. Arthur Seligman,
Chairman Road Board, LIST Dist,
Santa Fe County,
Santa Fe, n, NJ.
Dear Sir:
In compliance with the request
made by the Road Board at its meet
ing of November. 18th, 1919. I will say,
that have investigated the matter of
collecting the delinquent road tax,
and can see no other course to pur-
sue but to comply with the law and
commence individual suits for the col
lection of this delinquent tax.
/ am informed that there are over
500 persons who have either refused to
pay this tax, or perform the three days
labor required by law.
These individual suits will be COM
menced before the district court, and
the costs in each case will amount to
from $12 to SIS. If possible to avoid
these costs I would suggest, that all
delinquents be allowed until the Goth,
day of November, 1919, to pay their
road tax.
trust that 1t will not become neces-
sary for me to take this step to en-
force the payment of this tax, as all
good citizens are or should be inter-
ested in good roads.
can see no reason why this tax
should not be paid, and if 1t is not,
then I am prepared to bring individual
suits at any time the Road Board de-
sires ME to do so. srr
Very truly yours,
(Signed) ALEXANDER READ,
District Attorney.

Indianapolis, Nov. 5.--The first
street car to be moved since the trac-
ton employees strike was called Fri
day night, was deserted in the streets
today after strike breakers had run it
less than mile through constant
hail of bricks. One strike breaker
was taken from the car badly hurt.
Four other strike breakers and num-
Der of patrolmen were less seriously
hurt by the downpour of missiles that
came from roofs and windows from
the time the car left the barns until
1t was abandoned. Conditions be-
came so dangerous for the strike
breakers that they lay down on the
floor of the car and after few min
utes as a sign of surrender, threw the
controller and all their arms into the
street. They were taken in charge by
strikers and policemen and later TAX

FUNK TESTIF|ES IN HIS
own BEHALF
IN THE CHICAGO DEFAMATION TRIAL THE
PRINCIPAL IN THE CASE TESTIFIES
THAT he never SAW MRS. HENNING
UNTIL TRlAl.--STATE RESTS CASE.

| Chicago, Nov. 5.-Clarence S. Funk
today testified in the trial of Daniel
Donahoe and Isaac Steifel, who are
tcharged with conspiring to defame
him.
Mr.. Funk sketched his early career
until he became manager of the Inter
national Harvester company.
y! Almost Immediately the names of
former Senator Lorimer and Of Ed
ward Hines We're brought into the
case. There was prompt objection by
counsel for the defense, and the jury
was excluded while arguments were
made.
In his preliminary testimony, the
harvester man said that he knew Don
Iahoe by sight and that Stiefel had been
pointed out to him.
There was immediate objection by
counsel for the defense when Mr.. Funk
was asked if he took part in an inves-
tigation at Springfield, ILL.,. in April,
1911.
The investigation referred to was
that of the election of Lorimer.
The jury was excluded from the
court room and for the first time the
prosecution declared its contention
that Funk's connection with the Lori
mer case was the cause of the attack
on his character.
Judge Pam would not allow the pros
ecution to show that detectives had
followed Mr.. Funk and made reports
to Edward Hines at Washington. The
witness was allowed, however, to re-
peat testimony he had given before
the legislative committee.
Mr. Funk testified that he had never
seen Mrs. Henning until she appeared
in court to testify at this trial. His
testimony was not changed by cross
The state rested its case this after
noon.
