HOLDS FOX BAIL MONEY
City Chamberlain to Pay When
Claimants Prove Right to It.

The 5000 cash bail which was nut up by
some good Samaritan" for Eugene 4.
Fox. the patrolman who was indicted for
bribery and perjury during the police
graft investigation last winter. is still
lying around loose I'm the office OF the City
Chamberlain and Is likely to stay there
until II can be legally determined TO whom
it belongs. The Corporation Counsel
handed down an opinion to the City
Chamberlain yesterday cautionng him
not to pay out the money until the three
claimants had settled among themselves,
I'm court or otherwise. TO which II be-
longcd.
Last week one Herbert Jeffries. a rather
mystical person. came forward to claim
the 5000 with the story that he had put it
up for Fox on wager. District Attorney
Whitman turned 1t over TO the Chamber
lain-not TO Jeffries-at that time, because
the records I'm the Tombs showed that the
bail had been furnished by Fox and his
counsel Louis j. Grant. now dead. Fox
went before Justice Davis in the Supreme
Court Yesterday and obtained an order di-
recting the City Chamberlain to turn over
the money to him.
With Jeffres's claim in mind and the
possible claim of the Grant estate to the
same 5000 also to be considered the City
Chamberlain appealed to the Corporation
Counsel. The opinion from the Corpora
ton Counsel's Office intimated that prob
ably the money should be paid to the
Grant estate and Fox, but advised that
the money be locked up. and the claim
ants left to establish legal right to IL.

Farmers Neglected.

II has, singularly enough. come TO pass
