Mid~season lethargy was disclosed
in a survey of Indiana business and
industry for the week ended today.
Too early for large scale spring ac-
tivities, and with winter practically
ended, there was little change from
the situation prevailing in the pre-
ceding week.
During the week the Indiana rail-
road announced it would spend
100000 in erecting power substa-
tons as step in its progress for
speedier interurban service. The
stations will be NNcated at Fortville,
Eaton, Pendleton and site near

Reprieve Move.
LESLIE AGAIN ABSENT
Aids Will Try to Reach
Governor If Petition
Is Filed.

Double-barreled effort was
launched today to get an executive
reprieve for Frank Scott, South
Bend Negro. sentenced to die in the
electric chair at Indiana state
prison, Michigan City, March 20.
Last week Scott had no attorney
taking an interest in the case. He
now has three.
Attorney r. L. Bailey, Negro, In
dianapolis, is in Michigan City to in
terview Scott in his death cell to
secure data for possible reopening
of the case and perfecting an appeal
to the supreme court.
Bailey left for Michigan City
Thursday night, following a confer
ence with l., o. ChaSey, secretary to
Governor Harry G. Leslie. He was
accompanied at the conference in
the Governors office by his law
partner, r. L. Brockenburr, Negro.
Will "Try" to Reach Leslie
Chasey promised that if facts in
the case warrant he vii try to reach
Governor Leslie on his Florida
yachting cruise and lay the reprieve
plans before him.
Brockenburr explained today his
firm became interested in the mat
ter when Bailey received a letter
from Scott stating that his defense.
had been inadequate.
I'VE are seeking no special
favors for Scott" Brockenburr de-
clared. But we do want to see
that he receives the ordinary treat
ment accorded in murder cases in
Indiana"
Scott was sentenced for the nur-
der of Isham Hampton, Negro,
whom he claims had an affair with
his wife. He was the first MUIR
derer to receive the death penalty
in st. Joseph county in forty years.
Promises to File Petition
Edwin Sommer, South Bend, de-
Tended him as pauper attorney, ap-
pointed by the court. He took no
appeal.
Sonn1er told The Times Thurs
day he will be in Leslie'S office not
later than Saturday with petit
ton for communication of sentence
to life imprisonment.
The indianapolis attorneys who
have entered the case will ask for /
stay of execution to perfect appeal,
under the present plan, Broken
burr said today.
Bailey expects to visit South Bend
and talk to the court about the
case, if SCOTS story merits his
further interest, his partner said.
Just year ago James Britt, Gary
Negro, was executed at the prison
while Leslie was on his yachting
vacation and could not be reached
for last minute reprieve.
Britt was the only murderer to
pay the death penalty in 1890.
