Governor Ed Jackson, according

upon the copyright story of The In

immunity from prosecution and
$4,000 to Governor Warren T. Nc
Cray in 1923, if McCray would let
George v Coffin. Republican boss,
name the prosecutor of Marion

The Times copyrighted story de-
clared that the proposition was
made to McCray at the time he was
facing indictment for his financial
transactions.
Offer Was Spurned
His son-in-law, William P. Evans,
was resigning as prosecutor because
he did not care to conduct the case.
Evans had recommended appoint
ment of william H. Remy in his
place.
McCray spurned the Jackson offer
and named Remy.
Coffin has denied participation in
the negotiations, saying he never
heard of them.
The Times and the Indianapolis

that jackson disprove the charge
or resign.

I'm the first place" Jackson told
the United Press, II do not know
