USELESS 100000 BRIDGE
AND ROAD NEAR NEWBURG
CONSTRUCTED BY STATE

that it will be an extraordinary
hazard.
In the past it usually has been
the custom to file petition with
the public service commission for
a crossing and after the petition is
granted, begin road construction.
I'm this case" declared John Nc
Cradle, commission chairman, "the
petition for a crossing was filed
after the work had started and the
railroad filed an objection because
of the hazard.
Instead of delaying work until
the question was settled the con-
struction continued and now there
is a bridge one-half mile east of
Newburg which would have to be
abandoned or torn up if the COM
mission would decide against the
highway commission.
What the commission will do, we
do not know until after the hearings
are completed and the results dis
cuSsed."
A deadlock appears to be the sit
uation at the hearing with the
highway commission refusing to re-
treat and the rail officials and citi-
zenS protesting against the hazard.

PULLMAN PORTER HELD
WITHOUT BOOZE WARRANT;
SET FREE BY CITY JUDGE

Goodwin and found nearly a pint
of bonded whisky in Goodwin's
grip as the porter was leaving the
Union station.
When Ira M. Holmes, defense at
torney, objected to the arrest with
out a search warrant, Municipal
Judge Paul c. Wetter dismissed the
case over protest of Huntington,
who said the case probably would
be relied in federal court.
"The federal law permits search
of q person or his possessions, eX-
cepting his home, without a search
warrant when the federal officer has
probable cause, based on informa-
ton which would lead prudent,
cautious and discreet person to be-
lieve the law is, or is about to be,
violated" Huntington declared to-
day.
James M. Browning, deputy dry
administrator for Indiana, upheld
Huntington's version of the law.
Huntington added he had been in
formed by railroad officials that
Goodwin had been transporting liq-
uor on his Pullman run to New York
and back.
"The law permits federal officer
to search suspect of this character
without a search warrant and to use
force, if necessary" Huntington
added.
He based his Interpretation Of the
law on a textbook issued TO dry
agents by Webster 5pates, Washing
ton, prohibition department attor-
ney
The textbook further explained,
according to Huntington, that the
Constitution does not provide
against unreasonable search and
seizure.
Search and arrest of Goodwin was
termed by Attorney Holmes as ex-
tremely high handed and uncon-
stitutional," -. n

TRANSPORT CHIEF
HIRES . RELATIVES
Hold Positions Drawing
Approximately 1854
Each Month.

Five near relatives of Oner S.
Manlove, chief of the motor trans
port division of the state highway
department, hold positions in his di-
vision, drawing, with their employer,
approximately 1854 monthly on the
states pay roll, inspection of depart
ment records disclosed today.
A sixth until recently drew $115
month as telephone operator in
the highway department in the
statehouse annex, but resigned upon
her marriage.
How this situation will be recon-
ciled with Governor Harry G. Les
lies vigorous denunciation of nepot-
ism. when data on motor transport
division expenditures are presented
him upon his return from Cana
dian fishing trip, was a matter of
speculation about the statehouse
and highway department today.
Manlove, as motor division head,
draws $4,000 a year.
His relative-employes, now on his
pay roll, according to department
records, and their approximate
monthly salaries and duties are:
Irwin Manlove, his son, mechanic,
$135; Sanford Weaver, cousin,
second floor foreman, $146; James
Wright, stepson, handling stock
records, 500; Miss Catherine Hunt,
niece, purchase order clerk, $115;
Fred Bronnenberg, a brother-in-law.
mechanic, $135.
Until her recent marriage, Man
loves daughter, Miss Martha Man
love, received $115 monthly at the
annex telephone job. Wright was
employed only recently. With all
working, the family groups pay roll
would aggregate about $4,000 q
year.
Manlove has blamed the criticism
leveled at his division upon dis
charged employees and upon Ed Paul,
Cambridge City, Republican leader,
who was instrumental in having
Fred R. Huddleston, 1866 East

MILLS FIELD, SAN FRANCISCO,
Aug. 16.-The Spokane Sun God
continued its round trip nonstop en-
durance flight from Spokane to New
York today after taking aboard $50
gallons of gasoline from a refueling
plane.
Two refueling contacts were made,
the last at 7:19 a. m. A few minutes
later the Sun God, piloted by Lieut..
Nick Manner and Art Walker, sped
eastward.
The second refueling was accom-
plished several miles south of the
airport. Observers on the ground
had difficulty sighting the plane be-
fore it flashed into the east, bounu
for Cheyenne.
Manner and Walker had intended
taking on larger quantity of gaso-
line, but evidently decided their
tanks held enough for the journey
to the wyoming city.
A note dropped by Manner said
the Sun God had reached San Fran
cisco at a. m. but was unable to
locate the airport. The note said
an average speed of 100 miles an
hour was being maintained.

Indications that the 1880 Marion
county tax rate will be higher than
ever before were given today by
County Auditor Harry Dunn as he
completed compilation of figures
for the new budget.
While Dunn would not declare
definitely just what the rate would
be, it was understood that it will be
between 40 or so cents on 500 of
taxable property. The present rate
is 31.5 cents.
Increases in the free gravel road
fund levy, expenses of county in
mates in state institutions and pro-
visions to retire bonds and meet ex-
penses without borrowing, are list
ed by Dunn as reasons for the
boost.
Dunn expects to have the budget
