BANKER SEEKS
SEIZED LIBERTY
BONDS RETURN
Head of DefunCt Farmers
Trust Asks Mandate
of Receiver.

Two witnesses were called today
in the first round of the fight Of
Charles N. Williams, president Of
the defunct Farmers Trust Com
pany to force B. M. Ralston. the
receiver, TO return liberty bonds
valued at S25,00O
Williams alleged in his suit today
that the liberty bonds, used by the
bank as surety for the deposit Of
Marion county government funds,
are his property and not that of
the bank.
He alleged that he merely had
loaned the bonds to the institution
and introduced an agreement be-
tween him and the bank to this
effect, which was signed by C. A.
Plock, the vice-president.
Dunn Certifies Total
Harry Dunn, county auditor, tes-
titled that a total of $4,000 in lib
erty bonds was deposited by the
Farmers bank in the Indiana Ma
tional bank, to be held in escrow
as surety for the countys deposit.
Maximum to be deposited in the
Farmers bank was placed at $780, 900
by the county finance board, and
S39,67721 was on deposit when the
bank closed, Dunn said.
Williams suit alleged that on
Jan. %, 1881, he loaned the Liberty
bonds to the bank to be used in the
manner stated above and that with
out his knowledge or consent"
these and an additional $4,000 of
Liberty bonds were placed in escrow
with the other bank.
Seeks Court Order
He asks that Ralston be ordered
by the court to take $4,000 from
the cash on hand in the closed in
stitution and buy replacement bonds
these to be returned to him.
Or, he asks, that the bank pay
back to the county the money on
deposit, thus releasing his bonds
for return, or that he be paid in
cash the equivalent Of the value Of
the bonds.
Ralston counters with the state
ment that Williams is not a special
claim, but that he only is a gen
eral creditor and that for this rea-
son, he should take his chances
with the other depositor.
Henry Bowling and Henry Horn
brook appeared for Williams; and
H. Nathan Swain for Ralston.

| (Gilbert Swan turns wandere, again. This time he will take hi. column on a jaunt through pictur. esque Africa.)
 | New York.-It happened some. thing like this:
 | The morning papers contained the information that six more plays had folded up on Broadway and been carted away to Gains warehouse. For weeks the amusement world Journals had been weeping for the dying night clubs.
 | When I went to lunch with friends from the writing world, ] listened to l the moaning of publishers over books | that would not sell. A sort of pessimistic pallor seemed to be creeping over the face of peo- pie and things l encountered. And seeking a few moments of surcease from such realities, I started to drop in on a news reel picture house, just to see what the king of Spain had been up to. In the lobby l met cameraman who had trailed news events in every corner of the earth.
 Aha" he chirped cheerfully, what break this season is for the travelogue boys. The whole country has gone ga-ga over dear old roman tic scenes and quaint customs. Do you realize that 151 different camera expeditions are going to set out within the year to set short release subjects on strange things? Now just take me, I'm going to North Africa next week and get some pie lures of the sultan changing shirts" "Aw, pipe down." returned en- viously.
 "Really-I'm not kidding" my l movie friend went on. People are a bit worried. They want magic carpets. They want to be whisked away for few moments t. faraway lands. They want bit of the Ara blan Nights in their soup."
 Well, lots of luck as though you needed it!"
 And I went into the picture show.
 It was mid-afternoon of the same day.
 As usual, the rhone ran for the two-dozenth time. This time the gent calling was one Clay Morgan. an amiable and portly representa- tive of the French Line boats.

 Yeah, and why don't you take that foo-foo powder out of your cof- fee and come bcak to earth" I re- piled curtly.
 You don't seem to understand me! I think you should take look at that swell new auto road that runs down to Marrakesh. You know the people are in the frame of mind for romance and glamour"
 "Yes, yes. I've heard all about that once to-day. I've got work to do."
 But Gil, Pm serious. I think it's about time you saw the Kasbah of the Oudaias."
 And about time you saw purple partners. old dear, if you keep on the way you have started"
 I'm telling you that we're going across Africa by automobile-we land at the Canary Islands on a reg ular Mediterranean cruise.
