against queer court proceedings and
delays DR.. l. w. Hodgens was dis
charged by Judge George Kersten in
the criminal court building yesterday.
Alleged to have practiced a con-
tidence game against a detective
working under the direction of a
Tribune reporter, the physician was
arrested during the TribUne's war on
alleged quacks a year ago last April
Not one Of the twenty physicians Eek
posed" by the Tribune were convict
ed. All Of them charge that they were
victims of a frame-up.
During the newspaper strike two
years ago DR.. HOdgens was asked to
help the unions by advertising in the
Daily World. He was not a member
of the American Medical Assn and
signed a contract. Shortly after his
advertisements began to appear Hold
gems claims he was called on the
phone by a man who said he was an
advertising solicitor employed by the
Tribune. 81 was asked to break my
contract and sign one with the Trib-
Une," said Hodgens. 81 was non
committaI over the phone and asked
the man to call. Nobody appeared at
my office, but a few days later the
phone rang again and the same voice
advised me to withdraw his advertise
ments."
A year later the great expose" be-
gan. DR.. Hodgens and his assistant,
Dr. Thomas DuPiUs, were arrested
for con game.
Before Municipal Judge Fake, Her
man Eastman, a detective, testified
how he visited DR.. DuPius and said
he felt sick He was examined and
told to come back for the laboratory
report. A few days later he again
appeared. He was told that the lab

ment.. Then he arrested the physi-
clans.
Upon hearing the testimony Judge
Fake discharged HOdgens and held
DuPius to the grand jury. A month
later the grand jury discharged Du-
Plus and held DR.. Hodgens for trial.
A jury, before Judge O'COnnOr, found
DR.. Hodgens guilty.
After hearing his own lawyer
praise the testimony Of the reporter
and Eastman, DR.. Hodgens thought
it best to engage new attorney So
he instructed Atty E. A. Moran, who
was trying the case. to ask for new
trial. This was granted later.
Atty Clarence DaTTOw was called
in on the case. He asked the law
firm of Rankin & Moran for the tes-
timony taken during the trial. They
demanded $165, although the trial
only lasted one day. DarrOw sum-
moned Moran into court and OBJ
tanned the evidence,
Then began the fight to get a trial.
For months barrow made weekly
trips to the criminal court building IN
an effort to get a judge to hear the
case. Judge after judge was appealed
to. They all made the stereOtyped
answer: Lets get the Jail emptied
first"
JaiIer Davies recently made public
figures in The Day Book showing
how the population of the jail is in
creasing instead Of being lowered by
the industry" of the judges. and how
the bail cases are already two years
behind the docket. DR.. HOdgens was
innocent. He wanted the stain re-
moved from his. name. Crooks who
were indicted and are out on bail had
been at liberty for two years.
Yesterday the case was called be-
fore Judge KeTsten. 'The charge of
con game will not stand in this case"
barrow told the Judge, The defiui-

AT their meeting in the state house
today, members of the state board
discussed details of the 1915 school
legislation and authorized Superin-
