WTLMETH HITS
TINE CLOCK ON
RIGHT SIDE OF 8
One Booze Offender Fined 500
and GiUen Thirty Days
in Jail.

In accordance with his campaign
promise that city court should start
promptly at clock each morning. Judge
Delbert O. Wiimeth convened court on
time today. During his campaign he
announced at q meeting in Brightwood
that he would donate a So gold piece to
some charitable organization every time
court opened late. He said he would
carry out this promise, but did not in
tend to start the morning session late.
One of the first cases was that Of
Fred Okerston, 3131b West Walnut street,
who was charged with operating blind
tiger" Okerston was arrested a few
days ago at Maryland and Illinois streets,
where he was acting suspiciously. A
search revealed that he had four half
pints of whisky. He told the court that
he had "just happened to meet some
body" and mad purchased the liquor.
Judge Wilmeth found him guilty and
assessed a fine Of 800 and sentenced
him to thirty days in jail.
Martin Barrego and Daniel Mendoza,
Mexicans, who are stationed with the
Regular Army at Ft. BENJAMIN Harrison,
and who were arrested New Years eve
at West Washington and Missouri streets
when an officer noticed bottle in Men
doza's pocket, were also before the judge.
As the municipal court has no jurisdic-
ton over men in the military service,
Judge Wilmeth dismissed the charges
against the men and ordered them held
for military police, who viii take them
TO their station. The men viii be tried
there.
George Cox, negro, giving his address
as $50 East Court street, was discharged
on a blind tiger" charge because Of
lack of evidence.
La Verne Woodfork, 80 West Seven
teenth street, and OTTO Simmons, 81
West Eighteenth street, both negroes,
were fined 81 and costs on the charge OF
petit larceny. The negroes pleaded
guilty to stealing coal from a railroad
right of way at Adams and Ray streets.
Elmer Johnson. 1435 Bates street. was
fined a similar amount for throwing coal
of cars and taking it to his home.

department will exert every effort to
make the campaign even a greater success

NEW RECORDFOR
FINES IN COURT
MADE PAST YEAR
Collections Totaled $1O3,50O,
or $4,000 More Than
Previous Record.
MORE ARRESTS MADE

During the year 1921, the records Of
the city clerks office show that a total
Of sos, 50010 was paid by defendants
convicted in city court This sets new
record, the largest previous amounts be-
Ing collected in 1919, when $91,991.27
were paid to the city clerk. In 1920 the
total collected by the clerk was S79,-
100. In 1918 the amount collected was
So 1884 O9. This makes a total collection
Of the city clerks office during the four
years that Judge Walter Pritchard was
judge of the city court, $3.50, 1910.
The number Of convictions in State
cases in city court in 1918 was 4,049; in
1919, 1914; in 1920, 5,177, and in 1921,
5e25. The number Of convictions in city
cases in 1918 was 517; in 1919, $50; IN
1920. 365. and in 1921, 575. The largest
total of convictions was in 1921, when
$500 State and city cases resulted in con-
vfctions.
The total Of $1O3,5O01O, collected in
fines and costs in 1921 is a larger amount
than the combined collections Of tines
and costs in city court during the three
years 1915, 1916 and 1917. In those years
the total was S99930.37 The smallest
amount collected was in 1916, when there
were 4 775 convictions in state cases, b53
convictions in city cases and the ines
ana costs dmOuILeu TO 1-urJ--t'O- IL A0Ao'
there were 5,714 convictions in state
cases. !, 422 convictions in city cases,
which makes the largest total number OF
cases in which convictions resulted in
city court in seven years. However, in
the total Of 7,136 convictions the collec-
lions of the city clerk in 1915, amounted
to only S34939.37. In 1917, the number
of convictions in state cases was 4,635;
and the number of convictions in city
cases was 1904, the total collection Of
fines and costs being $36,658.G7.
1t is pointed out that the increased
amount of fines and costs collected while
George o. Hutsen was city clerk during
the last four years, was due to the many
blind tiger cases in which the fines and
costs are very heavy, and to Judge Pritch-
ards system of assessing heavy fines in
speeding cases and in cases where a
driver Of an automobile was found guilty
of driving past a street car while pas
sengers were getting on and off. 1t also
is a fact that the city clerk has the fines
and costs collected up closer al the close
of the last four years than any other city
clerk who has held the office in Indian
apolis. John w. Rhodenhamel, the new
city clerk takes office with fewer stayed
fines pending.

receipts 70 rthe year amounted to 81
913, 4s0.74, an increase of 800, 99T.I4 over
those of 1920.
As a result of the fine showing of the
office during the year postoffice employees
are jubilant, for they are certain that the
So, 100000 mark will be passed during the
year 1922 and when that occurs salaries
will be increased automatically.
AS Il always the case stamp sales ae-
counted for the greater part of the re-
ceipts, S2615, 363.29 being realized from
this department alone. During the year,

they will remain substantially as the
city has found them.
The problem Of administering the
property is a large one. 1t Includes two
apartment houses, each with many ten
ants. In order to take care Of these, the
city council last night adopted an ordi-
nance providing for the appointment of
a janitor and a custodian for each. The
apartment buildings are the Chalfont and
the San Toy The custodian Of each is TO
receive $95 a month and the janitor will
receive SO a month. William LIE Rue,

ments, was reappointed. This was done

ers occupy. These leases Will run for
six months, but can be terminated by

DR.. James II. Taylor. There are a num-
Der Of small houses and doubles which

ness building which also will be rented

pected in connection with other prop
critics.
