GRAND JURY
HEARS ADAMS.
STEPHENSON
Prisoner Believed on Stand
Toe Brief a Time To Give
Much Information

indianapolis, Ind, Oct. l4.-LP1-
The Marion county grand jury today
speeded up its Investigation into
charges of alleged political corrup-
tion in Indiana with u view to COM
pleting the taking Of testimony with
in the next two or three days.
Thomas H. Adams, publisher of the
Vincennes, Ind, Commercial. who
originally made the charges Of alleg-
ed bartering Of offices by public Of
ficials. and ID. G.. Stephenson. named
BY Adams as q source Of confirmation
Of the charges, have both testified
beforeN the Grand jurors and appar-
emily only the gathering up of loose
ends remained before conclusion of
the probe.
Stephenson Back in Prison
With Stephenson back in the In
diana state prison after his trip to
Indianapolis, the grand jury session
divided interest with the possibility
Of the corruption charges becoming
the subject of q hearing by the SEN
atorial campaign funds investigating
committee. st. Louis dispatches last
night quoted q newspaper of that
city as saying that United States
Senator James A. Reed Of Missouri.
chairman Of the senate committee,
had called q meeting of its members
in Indianapolis.
Earl Klenck, former bodyguard Of
Stephenson and who was acquitted
last year when he was co-defendant
with Stephenson on the charge Of
numbering Madge Oberholtzer. Of
which Stephenson was convicted and
is now serving life sentence
in the Indiana state prison,
was expected to complete today the
testimony he started yesterday be-
fort the grand jury.
That the jury would investigate
the new angle injected into the case
yesterday by Floyd Christian, Mobiles
Vile attorney, appeared unlikely.
Christian made public statement in
which he said he had seen, while Wis
iting Stephenson in the Hamilton
county jail before the Oberholtxer
trial, check which he said was
'spavable to Ed. Jackson Governor
of Indiana) for $6y0QO," and signed
by Stephenson. Il was pointed out
that the jury would probably not con-
eern itself with this statement mas.
much as Christian indicated that he
did not have possession Of such d
check.
Jackson Denies Charge
Governor Jackson denied vigorous
" that he had received such . check
from Stephenson. ID. G. Stephenson
never at. any time gave me check
for 5000 or any such amount as .
gift or for campaign purposes and
any statement that he did Is absolute.
" .1alsc," tho governor said.
The impression persisted here that
Stephenson volunteered little il any
information to the grand jury. It
appeared to be based ON the one
hour duration Of his session with the
jurors, which was considered too brief
20 permit the intricate revelations
which Adams some time ago said
would be Forthcoming il Stephenson
were called to testify.
After his appearance before the
grand jury, Stephenson was taken TO
tho snpeyior court in connection with
4 civil suit but refused 70 testify.

Shoot Anyone Carrying Gun
Chief Collins orders were to shoot
on sight any person caught gun in
hand, or involved in any violence in
gangster haunts.

Inquest Develops Little
The inquest into the death Of the
two gangsters, shot down by enfilad-
ing machine gun fire which swept
the Holy Name Cathedral and wound

There was testimony substantiating
information to the police that Weiss
was the victim of a double cross,
and detectives also were interested
in a report that Murray was employed
To lure Weiss into a trap and then
was killed by his supposed allies.
Names Of all the jurors in the trial
of Joe Salts and Lefty" koncil for
the murder of a rival beer gangster
were found in the investigation of
the Weiss. Murray shooting and the
court opened the trial by asking each

RESOLUTION REAFFIRMING
COURT STAND IS DEFEATED

PhiIadelphia, Oct. 14-N1-Thc
American Legion convention today de-
feated a resolution rcaffirming its
position in favor of the world court.
There was a short debate on the
resolution, the burden Of the opposi-
tion being that the world court mat
ter was political and that the legion
was nonpolitical.
The convention also defeated q
resolution urging congress to extend
for one year from May, 1927, the law
permitting foreign soldiers who
served in the American forces in the
world war to enter the United States
as extra quota under the immigra-
ton law. The department sat Italy

Shows Little Optimism

Two or three new faces will appear
in the Demon lineup when the players
20 to the field against Minot Satur-
day, Coach H. f. Collins said today.
lncligibility has removed two grid
ders from the lineup this week,
Strauss and Minover being the un-
lucky ones.
At o'clock tomorrow the team will
leave for Minot, getting there some
time in the evening, and . number of
rOOters are expected to accompany
the group. The players will have .
light workout tonight and then rest
until game time.
Practice this week has been devoted
to improvement of defense, which
showed up poorly during the Fargo
game last Saturday. Some time has
also been devoted to interference and
the team is much better prepared for
the Minot game than 1t was for that
with the Midgets.
Benser May Not Go

been causing him trouble since scrim.
mage several days ago, has been TAX
