Robert T. Humes, head of the

Bridges were assigned TO several
speed and liquor cases in city court
today, and expressed surprise when
informed the two had accompanied
Stephenson on the trip to his lrv-

Assignments Differ

Humes asked an assistant in his
office to look up their assignments
for today on the Offices daily rec
ord. The record showed Losey and
Bridges had been sent to patrol
State Rd. s, between Indianapolis
and Lebanon. Humes' assistant said
Losey and Bridges had asked to be
sent out on the F'ranklin-Indian'
apolis road. Humes repeated that
the report that the two were acting
as Stephenson body guard Was
ridiculous.
Stephenson, according to neigh
bors, moved some OF his furniture
from the house several weeks ago.
Records today showed that the
Marion County State Bank holds a
SIS, 200 mortgage on the property.

Denies Violation
Lew denied that question of law

which held that the United states

the Imperial German government

to the extent of several m1ll on

to the fund resulting from the seiz-
