Suit for injunction to prevetn the pub

In Federal Court today.
This is the second suit of this char
acter to be filed against the public serv-
ice commission in Federal Court, the
other being filed about two months ago

Wayne. Like the complaint of the FIT.
Wayne Company, the one filed today is
based upon the fourteenth amendment to
the Constitution of the United States,
which provides that no person shall be

Of law. 1t is insisted that the action Of
the public service commission in refusing
to put into effect rates which will take
care Of the depreciation Of the property
of the company and yield a reasonable re
turn upon the investment. constitutes a
violation of the fourteenth amendment.
The complaint states that the present

THE report that has been previously
given out to the effect that Francis said
that Lew Shank. candidate for mayor OF
Indianapolis, accompanied Francis, Mrs
Francis and Herbert Hartman and his
wife and Kid Duga1 to Louisville to
attend the Derby is incorrect What
Francis said. It Is understood, was that
on the day Of the Derby he and his party
saw Shank several times and that we
wanted Shank to go to West Baden with
us He added, however, that Shank did
not go to West Baden, but went on to
Washington, D. G."
In his sworn statement, Francis says
I'VE met Shank and Doc Christy.
They had a quart Of whisky. He
(Hartman) said he would meet them
at the Tyler hotel. Shank went to
the Tyler hotel and registered there.
We met him and took him to the
races. We drove down and got him

Henry Warrum, an attorney for Robb'
explained that the duties of the organ
izer in West Virginia consisted of the
distribution Of relief.
He had no more to do with the actual
killing than l have he said. He Is
charged on the theory that there was a
conspiracy to kill. Under that theory
there could be any number of arrests in
West Virginia, Indiana and other
States "
Mr.. Warrum pointed out that the kill
ing occurred in May. but that RObb was
rot deported until two months after
ward. 1t was explained that Ro5b was
deported with others as a result of a
charge of holding a disorderly meeting.
1t was said he was given the choice be-
tween leaving the State or going to jail.
RAISES QUESTION
or ROBES SAFETY.
The attorney declared there was a
question in his mind as to the physical
safety of Robb should he return to West
Virginia In this connection he referred
to the case OF sid Hatfield, who was
killed while under arrest.
IF you win investigate conditions you
wouldn't send 4 favorite dog to West

Comparison of the sworn statement of
Francis with what was published here

other instances of garbling, perversiOn
and misrepresentation, the obvious object
in each case Ec.ng to connect Shank with
Francis and Hartman, and to protect
members of the Jewett administration and
supporters of Mr.. Thomas c. Howe.
In Tuesdays issue the News says.
Francis apparently has intimate
knowledge in regard to political con-
ferences that were held at the home of
Lew Shank, nominee for mayor. after the
primary election. At least it is said he
has told the police the names Of those
who attended one Of these conferences,
and has repeated remarks which he said
were made by various persons at the
meeting. Francis seems to know that it
was the plan of certain Shank supporters
to make Herman Rikhoff chief of po-
lice in event of Shank's election
The sworn statement of Francis
does not contain any reference to
any meetings at Shanks house. and
it does not mention Herman Rikhoff.
