DE PALMA wins
Mercedes Driver Captures Ex-
citing Indianapolis Race.
All Previous Records Broken
Speed 80 Miles.

Indianapolis, June 1.-Ralph De
Palma. driving a German car, won
the fifth annual 500 mile automobile
race here today, breaking all records
for the distance. De Palma took the
lead lust before the 20 mile mark
was passed and held it practically all
the rest of the distance.
De Palma's time for the 500 miles
was 5:33: $3.50, an average speed of
1884 miles an hour. Rene Thomas.
who won last year, averaged S2.4I
miles an hour.
Dario Resta, in a French car, fin
ished second. and Gil Anderson, in an
American car, ran third.
Popular Victory.
That De Palma's victory was pop
ular one was shown by the demonstra-
ton by the thousands of spectators
who rose and CHECKED wildly as the
winner finished his last lap. The win
ner's first words were praise for the
mechanician who rode by his side dur
ing the long grind.
De Palma drove a consistent race
He never was back of fourth place. He
wrested the lead from Resta in the one
hundred and seventy-fifth mile. He
lost the lead in the three hundred and
fifteenth mile, when he stopped at the
pits. but regained it in the three hun
bred and thirty-fIfth when Resta
skidded into the retaining wall and
was forced to make a tire change, as
a result. De Palma's machine ran
perfectly until the beginning of the
four hundred and ninety-eighth mile,
when it showed signs or faltering.
This years race was the first held
here in which no person was injured.
the weather was threatening
and the race had been postponed from
a large crowd was on hand
to witness the event. The track was
ideal for high speed, as it was chilly
and tires lasted much longer than is
usual on a brick course. The winner
made two stops for tires and fuel.
Ten drivers divided the $50, 900 prize
of which De Palma's share is
100000

TEST VALIDITY OF
The TRUSKETT BILL


the passage of the law and that the
board had decided the Truskett case
in advance of the enactment.
The original bill looking to the free
dom of A A. Truskett was introduced
by Ben F. Endres, representative from
Leavenworth county. TruSkett was
committed to the hospital for criminal
insane after having been acquitted on
murder charge by a Montgomery
county jury. Elsie May Truskett, a
niece of the imprisoned man, was an
active lobbyist during the time the
measure was before the legislature. 1t
was due largely to her personal effort
that the measure passed the senate.
Proceedings Irregular.
When the bill went to the senate,
it is claimed that w. L. Gronjaw)
Brown took an interest in the passage
of the measure. This fact may be
urged by the attorney general in his
argument that the bill did not pass in
the regular manner.
"It is my intention to test the valid
ity of the Truskett BILL" said Brew
ster today. There is no doubt in my
improper and irregular and that meth
DDS used were not proper 1t was a
measure that undoubtedly justified a
veto.
II do not so much object to the
freedom granted Truskett, but the law
is not a good one and I am not pleased
with the facts surrounding the con-
sideration of the bill Whether the
state will attempt to return Truskett
to prison in event the law is not up
held, is a matter which 1 have not
determined.''
There are several persons in the
hospital for criminal insane at Lans-
ing who are affected by the pro-
visions of the law, it is claimed. The
measure takes from the trial judge
the right to hold up the granting of
a pardon or parole to a person sent
to the criminal insane ward. AL
most absolute power is vested in the
prison board. The fact that the law
vests unusual powers in the board and
the further fact that members of the
board showed an interest in the pas
sage of the law and perhaps even the
and actions of Truskett's at
tractive niece, may be urged evil
dence that the legislature slipped a
cog
