GOES TO Jury
Consider Check Charge
Against Representative.

Case Of the Government against
Russell V. Duncan. Marion County
State Representative, and three CO.
defendants. charging theft = forgery
and conspiracy, was given to Fed
eral jury in Judge Robert c. Bait
zell's court at noon today.
Instructing the jurors. Judge Balt-
zell pointed out the undisputed facts
in the indictments. He raminded
the jury tc take into consideration
that Duncan had received ths-check,
indorsed it, deposited it at the j. +.
Wilk Bank, and that he had never
returned a cent of the amount to
the Government after learning the
circumstances of the check,
District Attorney Albert Ward told
the jury to remember that the con.
tract Duncan alleged had been
drawn for use in the real estate
deal in which he said the check for
S3,094.91 had been given him. was
in possession of n man 12,5O0 miles
away. He also charged that the de.
fense had not subpenaed the local
real estate men who was alleged to
have drawn the contract.
Defense attorneys charge that the
Governments case is built only
on circumstantial evidence and on
opinions of handwriting experts.
Charles w. Tilton, Howard r.
Hamilton and his wife, Suzanne Bak-
er Hamilton, former employees Of
internal revenue office, are de-
PENDANTS with Duncan.
The check, a tax rebate, was made
out to John w. Smith Of Muncie,
NOW dead, on April 81, 1924, and was
cashed in November, 1924. The
Government charged the defendants
stole the check, and indorsed it..

ment for an equity he held in his
home.

William Mitch, secretary of the

while many of the operators wanted
to do all they could to effect an agfee-
