LONG CONFLICT
ON MAYORALTY
MAY Be FUTILE
City Manager Rule Likely
Before Legal TangIe
Is Settled.

City manager government may
overtake indianapolis before any of
the three claimants of the mayors
Office is able to establish his right
to the chair through the courts.
This became evident to lawyers
representing Mayor L. Ert Slack,
Joseph L. Hogue and Ira M. Holmes,
the claimants, today, with an
nouncement from Chief Justice
David A. Myers of Indiana Supreme
Court that it is the consensus of
tn Supreme judges that court shall
adjourn for summer vacation July
20.
Arguments upon the mayoralty
tangle, which at present is before
Supreme Court in suits Of Hogue
and Holmes, each seeking to GUST
Slack and seat himself, we're held
Friday.
Briefs Yet to Be Filed
This did not put the matter
squarely before the judges for deci-
sion, since Holmes and Slack have
not filed reply briefs to the latest
brief OF Hogue in his suit
With but one more week of ses.
sions in prospect, it was not re-
garded likely by most lawyers that
the court would settle the highly
involved question with considera-
ton OF only a few days.
Even if the court does hand down
decision next week, the matter is
not ended definitely. The nature
of the suits is such that no matter
who wins they must go back to the
Marion County courts, where they
originated.
Courts in Vacation
The county courts now are in va
cation until September. Should the
matter get back to them early in
the fall there still would be oppor-
tunity of appeal on error back TO
Supreme Court and the same rou-
tine of brieflng and argument would
be carried on again.
Lawyers recall that such cases
often, without undue dragging by
judges, take from eighteen to twenty
months to be decided
1t is just eighteen months until
the city manager form of govern
ment goes into effect and after that
citizens care not who legally should
have been mayor during the term
Slack has held office.
Slack Would Stay
Attorneys generally say that while
the matter is being fought out in
the courts Slack would continue
to- hold office, even though the SUI
preme Court decided against him in
the present affair, unless Hogue or
Holmes found some novel means of
tossing him out of the chair and
sliding into his place.
One attorney in the case has made.
two informal pleas to the Supreme
judges that the decision be handed
down before the summer adjourn
ment, because Indianapolis govern
ment is hampered through inability
of the city to sell bonds for needed
improvements.
Banks will not buy the bonds be-.
cause they require the mayors sig
nature and they do not care to &C.
cept a signature clouded by tbs
suits.

Freight Rates on
Canadian Coal Cut

Reductions in freight rates on
coal from Canadian provinces to
North Dakota and Minnesota have
been ordered by the interstate COM
mcrce commission, the state rail-
road board was informed today. The
cut will range from SO cents to 81
ton and will become effective
August /. The new rates for Can
adian coal still arc twice as high
as those applicable to North Da-
kota Ignite, however, traffic ex-
perts for the railroad board said.
The case was brought by dealers
and consumers Of Canadian coal,
among them the Piper-Howe Lum-
Der company Of Minot and the
Northwest Lumbermen's Associa-
tion Of Minneapolis. representing
1000 coal dealers in the Northwest.
The Monarch Elevator company,
which operates coal yards in this
state, also was complainant.
Dealers shipping coal from the
head Of the lakes and some North
Dakota Ignite miners opposed the
reduction in Canadian coal rates.
The new rate will be So ton
from the mines at Drumheller,
Alta, to the border and sliding
scale from points Of entry to dcstin-
alton, the maximum rate being
$3.50 for shipments penetrating
border states 500 miles.
The record Of the case shows that
Approximately 100000 tons Of Cam
adian coal were used in North Da-
kota last year.
In report to the interstate COM
mcrce' commission by one Of it's
examiners, recommendation ha 8
been made that rates on salt in
carload lots from Kansas to points
in North Dakota be reduced APP
proximately 20 per cent. Complaint
was filed by the salt manufacturers
in q case involving rates to many
parts of the United States. The re-
port recommends a break in the
rates to be made at the Missouri
river, rates west Of the river being
higher than those to points east Of

POSSES STILL
SEARCHING FOR
4DESPERADOES
Casualty List in Wake of Bank
Robbery Shows 3 Dead
and 2 Wounded

Scott City. HANS, May 28.-OP-
A casualty list showing three dead,
one missing two wounded today
kept scores of possemen on the alert
in the hope some trace would be
found of the four desperadoes who
disappeared in the canyons and
thickets Of this rugged country after
robbing a bank at Lamar, Colo,
Wednesday last.
After four days devoted to follow
ing vague leads, posses yesterday
hurried to a cabin near Healy,
kans.. when the robbers were re-
ported barricaded there. Like many
other rumors that caused the volun-
teer searchers to hasten to isolated
places in western Colorado and
western Kansas. this proved without
foundation. The cabin yielded q
party Of hunters.
The tension under which the tired
possemen worked was indicated Sat
urday night when L. l.. Robinson OF
Hill City. Kans., and Carl T. Peter.
son. former sheriff Of that city,
were shot and seriously wounded by
possemen. Robinson and Peterson
were on patrol duty near Norton
and drew the fire of a posse sent ia
that area on the report of farmer
boy that Bandits held me up"
While search of the cactus strewn
hills, chalk caves and thickets of the
badlands of western Kansas and
eastern Colorado had not been en-
tirely abandoned today, many Of the
volunteers returned to their homes.
Scores had had little sleep since
Thursday night when DR.. w. w.
Wieninger of Dighton, 20 miles east
Of here, was kidnapped to treat one
of the robbers wounded by bank
officials and slain the next day.

GENTLE RAIN
Rainfall Oaly Local, However

Crop Damage

The parched Missouri Slope
country, after an unprecedented
hot spell in the vicinity of Bismarck,
today receiving its first relief in
eight days when gentle rain began
falling at ! p. m. On May 20 the
last rainfall was a barc.02 Of an
inch.
Since January ! there has been a
deficiency Of 3.2l inches, the United
States weather bureau here reports.
The total precipitation so far this
year has been 90 inches.
Crop damage in some sections of
the Slope country is expected as a
result of the spring drouth of the
past month. Grain seed in many
sections has not been sprouted while
other grains are reported to be
stunted by the heat and lack OF
moisture.
There is still considerable
amount of subsoil moisture, accord
ing to farmers, but this is being
rapidly used up and rains are sorely
needed.
Not much rain is expected here,
according to the weather bureau.
The shower here is only local. The
