CORRECTED REPORT is
SENT TO LOCAL COURT
Supreme Court Reversed Judge Funk :
Decision in Land Tax
Case.

1t was learned Tuesday morning
that the report of the decision of the
supreme court in the case of taxing
of land contracts was erroneous. The
first report sent TO the St Joseph
county clerk stated that the supreme
court sustained the decision of
Judge Funk before whom the test
case was tried out in the circuit
court two years ago. A correction
was sent Tuesday morning, and it
was learned That's the decision of the
lower court had been reversed.
The case which has created SO
much attention was that of Warner
Wise VS.. Fred w. Martin, county
treasurer. Counsel Tor Mr.. Wise Sc
cured an injunction enjoining the
county treasurer from levying on the
land contracts held by their client.
Judge Funk decided that such land
contracts were not taxable, and Fred
Woodward, then county attorney, APP
pealed the case.
The case taken into the supreme
court is one which has often been
brought TO the attention of county
officials, but has never been tested
out until Mr.. Wise took the matter
into court. There has never been a
decision before in Indiana touching
upon this question. The attorney for
Mr.. Wise advanced the contention
that the treasurer had no authority
TO collect the tax under the statutes.

Defense Attorney Says Side
Was Ready to Prove How
State Spent Its Money
For Witnesses.
JURY WILL NOT GET
CASE TILL WEDNESDAY
Reading of Instructions at Bell
Trial is Expected to Con-
sumo About Two
Hours.

INDIANAPOLIS. oct. 12.-AlthoUgh
all the arguments in the trial of
Mayor Bell, charged with election
conspiracy, will be completed before
court adjourns today, the jury will not
get the case until Wednesday noon.
Judge Eichhorn intimated that his in
structions to the jury will consume
about two hours of the courts time
Wednesday forenoon. Henry y. Span
for the defense and Pros. Rucker oc-
cupied the floor today.
With the court room packed and
standing room in the galleries crowd
ed, Henry y. Span made the closing
argument for the defense this fore
noon.
Spaan opened his argument by re-
ferring 10 Pros. Fuckers statement
that it was necessary for the state to
spend money 10 obtain witnesses.
where are the witnesses 2" de-
manded Span Big Chief O'Leary
testified he spent $50 for 10 drinks
to buy votes, but the states investi-
gators said he spent money for drinks
for William Petit, got him drunk and
then took him TO the prosecutors Of
flee After that they spent money for
pair Of pants for William Clark and
provided him with a woman for COM
partnership"
The rest of the story. Spaan de-
clared, was kept from the jury by
Pros. Roach and Rucker, while
mayor stood with a pile of kilograms
in his hand to prove how the state
had spent money for witnesses.
Prosecutor Objects
Special Pros Roach objected at this
point, accusing Spaan of going outside
the records. Spaan replied by stating
instances in Roach's speech where the
latter had gone outside the record.
Spaan asked why Thomas Taggart
had been drawn into the case when
there was no proof that Taggart had
collected $1,000 from the brewers.
Spaan paid a high tribute TO Taggart,
saying ne never denied a deserving
man.
Spaan said that when the unspeak-
able Nugent came to Taggart for aid
the state tried to make capital out or
it. He said whenever a witness came
from Terre Haute another man came
from that city to ask him questions,
and he referred TO Roach as Foul
Mouthed" Roach
There was general laughter when
Spaan in his high pitched voice quoted
from William Pettit's testimony and
asserted that the prosecution had
found that in the cases in federal
court a "wrecking crew" was neces-
sary and the prosecution attempted 10
frame a 'wreCking crew" in the Bell
trial.
Span mentioned the names Of
many of the states witnesses, to whom
he sarcastically referred as being Of
high character"
