COURT or APPEALS
Reyerses Opinion Of the Mason Circuit
Court In the Case Of the Louisville
Tobacco Warehouse Com.
pany vs.. Lee.

Frankfort, KY, November l5-The
Court of Appeals reversed the Mason
Circuit court in the case Of the Louis
Vile Tobacco Warehouse company
against ], NJ. Lee.
The litigation in this case resulted
over settlement of transactions be-
tween Lee and the company for four
years ending January, 1914. During
that time the company furnished Lee
with 100000 with which to buy to-
bacco to be sold in its warehouse in
Louisville. Purchases were made in
Mason, Fleming and Lewis counties,
where Lee lived. Deducting the in
tcrest, storage and credits given Lee,
the company claimed that he was $12,-
9S4.07 in debt to it. The case was
tried by a jury and a verdict of $9.6S
was given to Lee. The court says the
question involved is whether the
warehouse company, at any time when
II was directed by Lee to sell his to-
bacco, failed or refused to do so or
within a reasonable time after receiv-
ing such directions. After an examin-
alton of the evidence the court says
that the verdict is against the evil
dence and reversed the lower court
for a new trial.

INCOMPLETE CANVASSES INDI.
CATE G. o. z. HOUSE

Washington, November 15-Incom-
plete canvasses of the vote in several
close Congressional districts today
brought no changes in the unofficial
election results, which indicate that
PIT Republicans, PIP Democrats and
six of other parties have been elected
to the Sixty-fifth Congress. Repre-
sentative Doremus, chairman of the
Democratic National Committee, still
claims, however, that Democrats will
make gains on the final returns in six
or seven of the close districts which
apparently have elected Republicans
by small majorities Speaker Clark
and other Democratic leaders also
confidently expect to cut down the Re-
publican plurality.
Representative Woods, chairman of
the Republican committee. insisted
tonight that the Republicans undoubt-
eddy would control the organization of
the House. A speaker to be elected
must receive majority of the House,
or 218 votes. Although the unofficial
returns show the Republicans to be
one short of majority, they are court
ing on the Progressive elected in Min
nesota, the Progressive Republican in
Louisiana and the Independent in Mas
sachusetts to vote with them for
James R. Mann for speaker.
Prospects of a Republican gain were
apparent in the Thirty-second Penn
sylvania district, where the canvass
of all Pittsburg precincts today show
ed Representative Barchfeld leading
Guy Campbell. his Democratic op-
ponent, by IL votes. On the unofficial
returns Campbell led Barchfeld by 10
votes. Country precincts still are to
be canvassed.

WALSH RESIGNS
From Position rs Night Sergeant on
the Maysvllle Police Force Yes.
day Afternoon.

Mr. Harry l.. Walsh resigned his po-
sition as night sergeant on the Mays
VILE Police Force yesterday afternoon
his resignation taking effect at once
No one has been appointed to fill the
position as yet.
The resignation was caused by a
controversy between the sergeant and
Chief of Police Mackey. On Tuesday
one Of the officers heard another one
telephone TO Ripley and ask George
Dale to bring him a quart Of whiskey
This conversation was reported to the
chief and Dale was later arrested by
him. Dale alleged that he sent the
whiskey to Maysville by a friend who
left II at one Of the hotels and asked
Walsh to notify the other officer. This
Walsh did. The chief heard of the
matter and Immediately placed the
other fellow under arrest for bringing
whiskey into local option territory for
other than his own use.
The chief and Mr. Walsh then had a
controversy over the matter in the
court room. The argument became
very heated and it seemed for a time
as If the men would come to blows,
but this was averted.
Another cause of the trouble was the
part that Sergeant Walsh took in the
trial of Robert Outten for Bookkeeping
Mr.. Walsh aided the defense in the Sc
lection of the jury and he and the
chief also had an argument over this
Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Walsh
hunted up Mayor Lee and handed in
his resignation. No one has been APP
pointed to his place and it is under
stood that it will be left vacant until
after next council meeting. An ordi-
nance will be brought up at that time
to make the position of night sergeant
elective instead of appointive as here
tofore. A night sergeant will then be
elected by the council for one year.
It is quite probable that there will
be a general shake-up in the Police
Department at the regular meeting OF
City Council in December.
