Hit-Run Driver on
Downtown Corner.
SOME ROADS BLOCKED
Two Deaths in State Laid to
Snow; Temperature Not
to Change.

With residential streets a glare of
trescherous ice, Indianapolis traffic
today had one foot in a garage as
cars slid past street intersections,
over railroad crossings and into each
other.
Without even the traction Of a
light snow to give some semblance
of direction to their autos, drivers
found they we're practically power
less to perform any of the quick
maneuvers necessary to motoring
without mishap.
The Weather Bureau predicted
snow for tonight or Friday here and
expected the lowest temperature to-
night would be Is, the same as it
was at today. The thermometer
had risen but one degree by 9.
Southern Indiana had rain and
no snow.
In the state, some highways were
drifted into impassibility and others
were fully as treacherous as The city
st cts. Northern Indiana in many
places was we'll covered with snow,
some places having as much as
seven inches.
Two deaths in the state were cred
tied to the snow. Joseph Carville,
81, died at Hartford City of apo
plexy, thought to have been induced
by exertions in shoveling snow. At
Michigan City. John Wiscomb, Ben
ton Harbor, Mich, was killed when
his car slid on to a railroad track
and was hit by a train. His COM
panion. Elmer Kerr, was seriously
injured
In indianapolis. John Hartley. 8,
of Is w North-st, was injured by a
hit -and-run motorist last night at
Westinghouse and Senate-av. Po-
lice, armed with license numbers, are
searching for the driver, who may
have found the slippery condition of
the street a contributing cause for
the accident. The child is at City
Hospital with serious back and head
injuries.

"a WIN MERCY
FROM GOVERNOR
IA Pardoned, 10 Sentences
COMMITTED by McNutt
on recommendations.

Twenty-four inmates of Indiana
penal institutions this afternoon re-
ceived Christmas presents from Gov
Paul v. McNutt, who issued IA par
donS and 10 communications Oh Tie
recommendation OF his Clemency
Board.
Sixty-nine other prisoners re-
ceived the bleak disappointment of
denials to their petitions, while four
cases were continued by the board
Perhaps most important among
the cases dealt with by the board
was that of j. Stephen Weber. FIT
Wayne, who was sentenced to from
five to so years from Aller. County
Dec. 20, 1881, after he haG pleaded
guilty to embezzlement cf funds
from the Home Loan & Savings
Assn. there.
Weber's petition for a parole
backed by prominent FIT. Wayne citi-
zens, was denied when ofnce.s o. one
association protested against his re-
lease. The board ruled he had not
served enough of his sentence.
A State Accounts Board account
ant said at the time of Weber's ar
rest he had taken $211,00O over q
period of years. Weber said he hao
used the money to save other COM
panies in which he was interested
from bankruptcy.
Among the Marion County cases
most interest attached to that OF
Charles Northern, brother of Mary
Kinder, notorious as the sweetheart
of Harry Pierpont, Dillinger mob
ster who was executed at the Ohio
State Penitentiary, Columbus, in
October.
Northern, serving 10 years fol
auto banditry and robbery, petit
toned for a paro.e, but his petition
was denied on the ground that, SEN
fenced in 1882, he had not served
sufficient of his sentence.

Grave fears were felt for the cafe

Sheriff Tom Cant. James Dugan,
former deputy, reported early TO-DAY
that he saw several members of the

mistrial was declared The Nation
al Guard escort of 100, which
brought Harris here from Nashville
where he had been held since his
arrest, went into action.

rapidly
The mob rushed the courthouse
four separate times. Each time tear
gas bombs and bursts of machine
gun and rife fire, mostly directed
over its head, drove it back. But
several times. soldiers and rioters
locked in hand to hand fighting.
Put Into Uniform
Harris was put into National
Guard uniform. His hands were
gloved and gas mask put over his
face. In this way he was spirited
from the building and taken to
Nashville.
The natio.al guardsmen retreated
to their camp outside the town to
avoid further bloodshed. Enraged,
the mob burned four guard trucks.
Sheriff Cant tried to make a
calming speech. He was stoned.
Soon after dusk. mob leaders broke
into his Office in the courthouse,
saturated it with gasoline and APP
piled a torch.
The fire department attempted to
fight the flames. The hose were cut
and ladders upset. Within few
minutes the two story, high ceiling

a replacement value Of $500 900, was
in ruins.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Dec. 2O.-The
mob which burned the courthouse at
Shelbyville last night was more log
ical than most mobs," the Memphis
Press Scimitar, a Scripps- Howard
paper, editorialized this afternoon.
Because they did not burn the
prisoner; they burned the cour1-
house"
The editorial continued
For a community where q mob

What need has a mob for trial, the
Judge, the jury, the careful search
for truth and justice which the
courthouse stands for-the law?
The young men of Shel0yvllle
were not slain by the soldiers, who
did their manly duty in upholding
the law. They we're slain BY the
mob, which forced the soldiers to
resistance to lawlessness. II they
we're spectators, they we're murdered:

TAX COMMISSION
 OPENS HEARINGS
Taxing of Manufacturing and Mercantile Houses
 to Be Discussed

Hartford, Con-, Jan. 1S-(UP)- A special state tax commission to- day opened the first of its public hearings on taxation of manufac- turing and mercantile businesses with a view of bringing about more equal distribution of the tax burden.
 Under present statutes incorpor- ated businesses pay to the state two per cent of their net incomes as determined for federal income tax purposes. while unincorporated manufacturers and retailers pay one-tenth of one per cent or their gross earnings and unincorporated wholesalers one-fortieth or one per cent.
 Lack of coordination between federal and state tax laws were said to have resulted In many dis advantages in the present system as applicable to corporations.
 The state, according to the cons mission, "has suffered by dras- tic reduction In revenues from this tax, while q relatively small num- Der of inxablo corporations have heen called upon to carry tho ma for part of tho business 'nS bur- den."
 llevenue from lhls hourco, it was pointed out, has dropped from $500, ,OOO lil 1DBO to slightly more than $500. 900 for the present hhcfl year.

RUNAWAY GIRLS
 LOST THEIR WAY
Boston HitCh~Hikers Were Lodged Last Night in
 Police Station

New York, Jan. 1S-CUP)-A hitch hike begun by two girls in Massachusetts Saturday ended to- day in a police station. Brooklyn, which has confused many natives, also confused the mixers, and they found themselves there under the misapprehension that they were really homeward bound after leav- ing Manhattan.
 According to the girls, Esther Driscoll, IT and Mrs. Marie Rog-- CTS Hughes, IS, one high school girl, the other a bride of four monthly. Esther .quarrelled with her parents last Friday night and sought her friends sympathy. The next morning both set out to visit new York, thinking the opportuni- ty propitious. They arrived here Saturday night.
 With less than ten dollars be- tween them, they found lodgings in an ', uptown Manhattan hotel. Yesterday their funds were ex- hausted and they decided to start back. Unfortunately they were not sure of what direction to take, and about midnight they found themselves at the end of Manhat- tan bridge, where a friendly mo- torist gave them lift.
 After explaining that they were going to South Boston, Esther add ed that they had run away from home. The motorist thereupon drove them to the police station. A teletype message was sent to Sout' Boston authorities. asking that Esther's family and Maries husband be notified.
