Has Resisted Serving of Indict-
ments for the Past
Three Weeks.
MADE PROTEST TO
THE LAST MOMENT
Climax of Long Contest Between
Governor Small and County
Authorities.
tRy The Associated Press,


SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Aug. 9.-Gov-
ernor Len Small, of Illinois, after re-
sisting arrest on indictment charging
embezzlement and conspiracy, for
three weeks on the plea of executive
immunity, or that the king can do
no wrong" as stated by his counsel,
today finally submitted to Sheriff
Mester after the latter had besieged
the state capitol with deputies for sew
eral hours.
The governor protested his arrest
until the last, charging persecution,
and asserting his innocence, but the
sheriff of Sangamon county was ada
mant and insisted on taking the gov
ernor from the executive mansion to
the court house where Abraham Lin
coin used to practice law, before ac-
cepting the bonds. There the COVER
nor gave surety for $4,000, and went
his way to await trial on the charge
of defrauding the people of the state
Of some $2,OO0.000 while state treas
urer through alleged failure to turn
over to the state the proper interest
on state funds.
It was dramatic day in the capitol
of Illinois and the whole city was at
white heat for hours as the climax of
the long contest between governor and
county officers drew near. After the
governor had refused yesterday to
yield to service of the three warrants
held by the sheriff, the latter had told
him he would serve the papers today
or as soon thereafter as possible,
either quietly or with any necessary
effort.
When the sheriff went to the capt.
tol to perform his duty as directed by
Judge Smith of the county court, Gov
ernor Small, attended by several adj
Visers was in his office and refused
to come out at the sheriff's request.
The sheriff then placed deputies
around the building to block any un-
deferred egress of the governor and
sat down in the lobby to smoke until
the chief officer of the commonwealth
should decide to emerge. He an
nounced that he had the advantage of
the besieged man because he had TAX
en- precautions to eat his luncheon be-
fore investing the capitol and laugh
ingly remarked that he had little else
except the arrest of the governor to
occupy his time.
The governor finally sent out word,
a couple of hours after the lunch hour
that the sheriff might come into his
office and serve the warrants but the
sheriff declined, saying he was in no
hurry and would prefer to make the
arrest outside to avoid any technical
charge of interrupting executive busi-
ness. This act of the sheriff was in
pursuance of the attitude adopted from
the time the indictments were re-
turned on July 90.
Crowds gathered around the state
house as the afternoon wore on and
there was a holiday appearance with
in the structure as flash lights doomed
and the high rotunda filled with smoke.
But the governor kept at work in his
office sending out two lists of ap-
pointments during the seige.
