STATE TO
GIVE TESTIMONY
Attorneys for Walter Runyan say
That Precedent Was
Violated.

CRAWFORDSN Ind. Feb.
10.-Contrary to the rulings in the
Harry ThaW case in New York and in
the Moore murder trial at Nincennes.
Judge Vinton, presiding at the trial of
Walter Runyan for killing Arlie Stull,
Monday permitted the state in rebut-
tai to disprove, if poss~ble,- statements
which Runyan said that Arlie Stull
made 10 him and which caused state
of fear in his mind.
John Higbee was put on the stand
to testify that he haG never had any
conversation with Arlie Stull regard
ing the latter's parentage and that
Stull had never threatened to Kill
him. This testimony was admitted
over the objections of the defense.
Runyan had testified that Stull had
discussed his birth with Higbee and
had threatened the latter's life.
In the cases of ThaW and Moore, il
was claimed that statements 10 them
by their wives had produced a state
of mind that caused the killings. but
the presiding judges refused 10 per
nit the defense TO disprOVe that those
statements were untrue.
Witnesses today also testified 10 the
good reputation of Stull as a peace

in KeySer Drainage District
Issues Warning to Prospect
i've Buyers.

Impending litigation over me Key
ser drain established in Marshall
county for which many St. Joseph
farm owners have been assessed. cut
short the delinquent tax sale at the
court house Monday
The property on which the assess
ments for this drain had gone de-
linquent was offered for sale by
Treasurer Martin but there were no
bidders. y warning was given by
Stuart MacKibbin, attorney for the
land owners who are protesting the
assessments, that the sale would i'm
mediately be followed by litigation
and there We're none Of the pro
fessionals" who cared 10 mix up in
the fight.
The Keyser ditch was ordered es-
tablished eight years ago by the
Marshall county circuit court, prOvid-
ing for the deepening and straighten-
ing of Yellow river. 1t is claimed by
the St Joseph county farmers who
were assessed that their assessments
are much higher than those of Mar
shall county farmers just south Of the
line. They declare they had no notice
Of the assessments until the roll was
delivered to assessing officers Of this
county from the Marshall county
authorities.
The reason assigned for the assess
ment Of st. Joseph county farmers
was that their drainage was toward
the south. Several of those assessed.
however, claim their drainage is en-
tirely north or northwest into the
Kankakee and st. Joseph rivers. They
have united, TO fight the assessments.
Had any Of the properties been pur-
chased the owner would have insti-
tuted legal proceedings Immediately
