HONOR TO FIRST
FALLEN HELD UP
Local Authorities Unable to
Learn Whether Body Of Sol
der Has Been Shipped.

Arrangements for the lying IN state
In the Statehouse Of the body Of James
Bethel Gresham of Evansville, first Amer
lean soldier killed in the World War,
were in allegiance today, due to the in
ability of persons making the arrange
ments to learn whether the body had
bee nshipped.
The body was at Hoboken, n. J., yes
terday, where Gen. John J. Pershing and
others paid tribute to more than seven
thousand of the fallen heroes. Accord
ing to the original understanding, the
body was to leave Hoboken last night and
to arrive in indianapolis tonight, and lie
in state at the Capitol tomorrow.
Neither Adjutant General Harry B.
Smith nor J. Frank Cantwell. president
of the Marion county council Of the Ameri-
can Legion, who are making the arrange
ments here, nor persons at Evansville
who are making arrangements there, have
received any word as to whether the body
has been shipped.
The present program is to take the
body to the Capitol whenever it arrives,
accompanied by an escort of United States
marines
1t is thought probable that in the con-
fusion attendant upon the shipment of a
large number Of bodies the transport
tation of that Of Gresham's has been de-
layed

CENSORS
BUILDINGS ON
OR NEAR CIRCLE
Attorney General Gives Ruling
TO Prohibit Tall Structures
Near Monument.

The board or control Of the Soldiers
and Sailors Monument has the legal
right to prevent tie erection OF buildings
on the Circle or adjoining the ap-
proaches to the monument which would
essentially mar the beauty Of the monu-
ment, Attorney General L. $. Lesh held
In a letter to Col Oran Perry, superin-
tendent Of the monument, today.
The ruling resulted from a controversy
over the construction Of buildings above
a certain height in the Circle. Colonel
Perry holds that the erection u tall
buildings would mar the beauty Of the
monument.
While Mr.. Lesh holds that the board
may prescribe restrictions, he advises
that it take up the matter OF the height
Of buildings with the city In order that
basis for legal controversy may be
avoided.
The opinion reads as follows:
your letter Of July l received. i am
inclined to opinion that under the au-
thority conf rred and obligations imposed
BY the various statutory provisions re-
lating 10 the Monument or Circle place
Burns statutes. 1914, Section 1856, etc.
it would he within the power of the board
Of control OF the State Soldiers and Sail
ors Monument to prevent the erection of
buildings or structures adjoining the ap-
proaches thereto which would especially
mar the beauty Of the Monument or the
Circle place and that any efforts to erect
structures Of such a character wOul6 be
subject to restraint upon the ground that
they constitute a nuisance. OF course, it
is highly desirable that your board should
work out a harmonious program with the
appropriate city authorities relating TO
the height Of buildings and thus avoid any
bass.for legal controversy"

Ohio, July 1.-THE State today with

ment charging Mrs. Catherine Eva
Kaber with attempting to poison her
husband, Daniel Kaber, wealthy
Cleveland publisher.
1t gave no explanation and the de-
fense hailed it as victory for the
accused woman, declaring the State
had failed to prove the poison
charges and a most important link
in their case to show a conspiracy
to kill Kaber.
The State rested its case immed-

Mrs. Kaber admitted in the presence
Of the Clevelend police the truth Of state
ments made by Urban Di Corpo, one Of
her alleged lovers, that she repeatedly
beseeched him to kill her husband. This
damaging evidence was given when the
court permitted Detective Phil Mooney to
take the stand after a legal clash be-
tween attorneys

Mrs. Kaber that he learn to operate an

The defense scored an important point
when F. ". Utterbach, nurse. testified
that Kaber. a bed ridden invalid, showed
