MORROW SAYS FORD
PLAN IS IMPRACTICAL
Declares Conditions At Corbin
Such That L. & N. Couldn't
Be Operated That Way

Frankfort, Ky, Aug. Gov
ernor Morrow Wednesday adj
vised Z. G.. Leibold, Henry Ford's
secretary at Detroit, that con-
ditions at Corbin are such that
the Ford plan of operating the
Corbin shops OF the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad Company and
the Eastern Kentucky carrying
lines is thoroughly impractical
BILE" The Governors telegram
which was sent from his Office
here follows:
Find sl1opmen and other rail
road employees at Corbin would
not accept or work under offer as
made by the Ford railroad. | am
confident the proposition cannot
be worked out at either end of
the working lines and is there
fore thoroughly impracticable."
Governor Morrow still is at
Corbin, center of the great
Southeastern Kentucky coal pro
ducing area and the point where
the Louisville & Nashville Rail
road shops are located.
The railroad situation at Cor
bin is regarded as the key to
moving coal out of that section.
Denial that he displayed indif-
ference to the fuel shortage 81
tuation in Michigan or to the
propositions made Saturday b.
representatives of Henry Ford
to assume control Of the situa-
ton at Corbin, KY. to facilitate
coal movement northward was
made by While l.. Mapother,
president of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad, in answer to
statements of Gov. Alex. ].
Groesbeck of Michigan Tuesday
night when that executive. &C
cording to dispatches from De
troit. announced he had appealed
to the Interstate Commerce
Commission for action.
81 was not indifferent. but de-
clined very clearly for the rea-
sons stated at the time
Governor Morrow was still in
Corhin, by, continuing his in
vestigRi6n into the IA, and coal
situat IN there When informed
over long distance telephone
early of Governor Grosbeck's
statement, in which the Kentuc-
Ky executive was criticized, Gov
ernor Morrow said that the
Michigan Governor needs to be
informed that | have not the
power to force AIr. Mapother to
accept the Ford proposition"
"Mr. Mapother refused to &C
cept the proposal on the ground
that they were impracticable,'
Governor Morrow continued.
'The shopmen here refused to
accept them. | do not think the
proposition is at all feasible. No
doubt the engineers here would
be extremely joyous if some of
Mr.. Ford's engineers came here
to take their places"

tective of Cincinnati.
Authorities had not disclosed
the specific information on which
the arrest was amde. Rewards
totaling nearly $1,000 had been
offered by Clark county, the state
OF Kentucky, citizens of Win
chester and the Renaker family
for information leading to the ar
rest and conviction of Renaker's
slayer.
II. H. Moore, county attorney,
turned over to the conference all
information that had been pro-
cured by investigation of Rena-
ker's death. Walter Renaker
then decided that this data
was strong enough to- form the
basis for placing a murder charge
against I1ardman.
Hartman, before being taken
to Lexington for safekeeping, de-
MED his guilt. He is a son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Lee Hartman, of
Austerlitz Station, which is about
ten miles from here just over the
Bourbon county line.
Hardman is former service
man and served III the graves
registration service over seas
After being honorably discharged
he returned home, where he re-
for several months. Then
lie disappeared for an interval OF
six months. Then his where
abouts was disclosed in letter t.
his mother. This letter, which
was printed in a local paper, indi
Gated he had re-enlisted and was
in disinterring bodies of
soldiers in France for
home.
Hartman, who presents a good
personal appearance, but who is
apparently nC't especially well ed
ucated, was engaged in farming
before his enlistment and at one
time operated a truck. Hard
mans sister, Mrs. Clyde Douglass
and Mrs. Leon Renaker have been
very close friends, and apparent '
through this friendship Hardman
became acquainted with the Rem
aker family.
Renaker was one of the most
prominent produce merchants in
Central Kentucky, and was wide
y known. He left life insurance
policies totaling $4,000. besides
L considerable estate. all of which
was bequeathed to his widow.
Mrs. Renaker, at the home of |
Ter father, c. c. Quisenberry, last
hight, when informed of the ar
-est of Hardman, said she did not
know anything in the wide
world about it." She declined to
discuss the arrest.
Hardman is a cousin of Geneva
9 years old, who was
,lain by Will Locket, negro, near
South Elkhorn. Fayette county,

Hardn1an Wcn't Ia k
(By Associated Press

Lexington. KY. Aug. 11-Sco-
bee Hardman. affable, smiling and
apparently unpreturbed, is in the
tayette county jail today, charg-
ed with the murder Of Leon Rem
aker at Winchester. He was
brought here as matter of pre-
caution. Beyond reiteraring that
he is not guilty, he refused to dis
cuss the case. He said also ne
had not seen a lawyer.
81 am not guilty" Hartman
said in answer to questions
soon as he was placed behind the
bars, last night. Further than
this the arrested man would not
answer questions or discuss the
affair.
Il am not going to tax" he
said. Il have my mind made 10
and there is no use trying to
make me"
In answer to a query as tC
where he was on the night OF the
murder, Hardman said to the
newspaper representatives:
Il know YOU are after d story.
ii | have anything to say VII
give it to you later. but now |
don't wish to talk.
Ora NJ. Slater, Cincinnati prs
vate detective, and Patrolman Oil
yer, accompanied Chief of Police
Mullins in bringing Hardman to
Lexington.
On the way to this city. the
men said. Hardman did not APP
pear to be nervous or worried
over the charges against him. He
talked continually on the way to
Lexington and at times laughed
and joked with the officers.
No threats of violence have
been made in Winchester. it was
said, but the accused man was
brought to this city for safekeep-
ing because Of the extreme inter
est that has been taken in the case
in Winchester and because off
cials desired to take every po5si-
bic precaution against trouble.
Winchester. KY. Aug. 11-Sco-
bee Hartman, p years old, OF
Austerlitz Station, Bourbon coun-
~, was arrested at 6 o'clock
Wednesday night in Winchester
on a warrant charging him with
the murder OF Leon Renaker. He
was placed in the Clark county
jail and later, in charge of Off
GERS, was taken to Lexington for
safekeeping.
The warrant on which Hard
man was arrested was sworn to
by Walter Renaker, of Cincinna-
ii, brother of the slain man. Leon
Renaker was found dead in bed
at his home here July %. His
skull had been crushed with a
blunt instrument.
This startling development in
the investigation of Renaker's
death, which has been carried on
necessarily since his body was
found by Mrs. Renaker on her re-

ence attended by Barry and Kirk

DEMPSEY NOT IN SHAPE
!. TO FIGHT, GOSSIP HAS It
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK, April 22<-Jack
Dempsey's desire to avoid any
thing in the way of fistic engage
ments on his present journey in Eu-
rope and Jack Kearns' grouchiness
have given color to reports current
in the metropolis just before Jack
sailed that his condition was not
overly good.
From San Diego now comes word
that Jack was not exactly in strict
training upon the occasion of several
merry parties at Tia Juana, the Mexi-
can town Just below the border where
a man can raise thirst and not have
to seek out a bootlegger to have 1t
gratified. The story is that Jack was
surrounded by jovial company ana
that the popping of corks was louder
than the pounding of horses hoo1s on
the Tia Juana track.
This may be only the sort of tosh
that follows champion pugilist IN
his wanderings about the earth. But
1t is the sort of tosh that preceded
the Dempsey Brennan bout. And look
at the way Dempsey conducted HILL
self in that fight.
If there is any truth in this yarn
II may account for Jacks anxiety to
get to Paris. 1t may account for his
Statement that he was not abroad to
fight. but merely to frolic, and finally,
n NAV account for the string of set
ms that has been arranged for him
when he returns to this country. Greb
in Philadelphia and Bill Brennan at
Michigan City.
