Court

On Wednesday the trial of the state
against David Warren was begun. This
was the second time this case was before
the court. The state was represented by
Prosecutor Kelsey and John McMullen,
although the latter did all the work.
The same situation existed in the first
trial except that Samuel A. Atkinson
was the states attorney. Mr.. McMullen
is the counsel for the Philadelphia Life
Insurance Company, and while the case
was on indictment for the unlawful
conversion of money, it was, in reality a
suit by the insurance company invol-
wing the settlement of claims that War
rem said he had against the company,
but which they declined to admit, hence
the activity OF McMullen.
V. Claude Palmer and Assemblyman
Peacock represented Warren. The evil
dcnce was the same as was presented at
the former trial. 1t was to the effect
that Warren, an agent of the insurance
company, had placed policies in various
localities and the company claimed he
had not made the necessary financial
returns on the business. To this Warren
replied that he had followed the usual
course and had retained commissions
and money to reimburse him for ex-
penses, and when he was called to ac-
count by the company he entered a
claim for commissions on renewals of
policies which brought the company in
debt to him. The defence claimed that
even if Warren had kept moneys belong
ing to the insurance company it must
be shown conclusively that he had done
so with fraudulent intent.
At the first trial the jury disagreed.
In the second trial it took the jury but
about five minutes to return verdict of
not guilty. 1t is possible that civil
suit will be instituted against the insur-'
ance company to recover the amount of
that Warren claims are due
him.
On Thursday George Hyland, charged
with stealing a bicycle from George
Baker, of Indian Mills, pleaded guilty
and was placed under the care of the
probation officer.
John Hall, of Burlington, pleaded
guilty to carrying concealed deadly
weapon and his case was laid over for
investigation.
James j. Cannon pleaded not guilty
to charge of desertion of his family
This is the fellow who Sheriff Stecher
went to Dewitt, Iowa, to bring to this
county. He was remanded for trial, but
the date was not set.

OFFICIAL RED TAPE
CONTINUES DANGER
lust Who is to Take Response
biIity For Trimming Trees
Can't be Decided.

Who's Who" is a question that mas
been seriously concerning the board of
public works. the board of public safe
" and the common council for the
past four weeks. The controversy is
q matter which has a great deal 10 do
with the public safety, and the delay
caused by the red tape of official COM
mittees may result in serious injuries
and perhaps death TO someone II the
matter is not soon take care of
The question is, who is TO take the
responsibility of instruCting and en-
forcing if necessary. Warren Crook
of y. Spring St, TO trim number OF
trees along his property which come
in contact with the heavy voltage high
tension wires of the Indiana and Mich
igan electric company which gives ser
vice to the plant of the Mishawaka
Wooden Manufacturing Co. and the
CITY electric plant. These wires coming
in contact with the upper branches Of
the trees creates a dangerous condition
during rainy weather as the trees re-
ceive the full charge of the electricity.
This condition, il is alleged, has pre-
vailed for some time along Spring St,
but wOrkmen of the electric company
trimmed the trees along all the prop
erries with the exception of the Crook
where, but it is stated that when they
attempted TO trim Crooks trees he
seriously objected and it was neces-
sary for them TO give up the effort.
A communication was presented to
the board of public works as a result,
by c. S. Kennedy, of the Indiana &
Michigan Co. requesting that the
board give them the power to trim
the trees on the Crook property. The
board. deciding that the matter was a
public safety one, and should be taken
up with the board of safety, referred
il to that committee. In the course
of city events the communication
came before them and after some dis
cussion was referred to the common
council Several days later when this
body met. it again came to light and
after receiving the consideration of
the members, il was pushed back onto
he board of public works. That was
a week ago.
Monday morning the board refused
to interest itself in the matter and
referred it back to the board of public
safety.
Bids for coal for the city water
plant were received and opened and
referred to Supt. Kline of the water
and electric department for tabula-
ton.
