BANDIT SUSPECT

Willard Kelly Places City
Detective on Stand,
Questions Him.

Willard Kelly, bandit suspect,
turned attorney today and defended
himself in criminal court on rob-
berry charge while his lawyer, j. w.
McElfresh, twiddled his thumbs and
became merely an onlooker.
Kelley, alleged to have been one
of the machine gun bandit gang
that robbed the william H. Roberts
e. Sons dairy, put Fay Davis, de-
tective on the stand and attempted
to establish police persecution.
Did you have me indicted on
what Red Giberson (alleged Jones
gang member said in his state
ment?" Kelly asked. Davis denied
this.
Kelly questioned Davis at length
on the "showup' at police head
quarters at which ten persons iden-
titled Kelly as one of the dairy ban
dts.
Didn't you say that you'd turn
in your badge if you didn't get a
conviction on me?'" Kelly asked the
detective
Possibly" smiled Davis.
Kelly. still pursuing the role of
attorney as we'll as defendant
planned to put more police officers
on the stand later this afternoon

Importers Are Scored by
Cox During Fry Trial

''If at first you don't succeed. try,
try again!"
This alleged attitude of the state
excise department crept out of the
attack on the constitutionality of
the wine provisions of the excise
act yesterday and today when Ralph
Whitaker, agent for wine COM
pany, testified in circuit court that
he was shown how to get wine
permit after being refused the
license by the excise department.
Whitaker testified that Fred r.
Bechdolt, counsel for Paul Fry, ex-
else director, told him, I'm sorry
We can't give you a permit" and
then in the next breath suggested
but 1 know of a beer permit hold
er who can not meet his payments
and you may be able to get his per-
nit"
1t was Whittaker's contention
from the witness box that a wine
permit could not be obtained unless
a company first held a malt bev-
erage or beer license.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1934-04-10

L. L. Henderson, attorney for
Whitaker, was present in Bech-
dolt's Office when the suggested
method of gaining a wine license
was made by Bechdolt, Whitaker
said
Importers we're scored by Circuit
Judge Earl r. Cox as unnecessary.
1T is hard for me to see why the
state can not collect the BEER tax
itself, instead of hiring private in
dividuals, called importers, to do the
collecting" the judge interposed
during the hearing.
Confinement of beer and vine
wholesalers to the sale of products
in one county and charges that a
monopoly was created By the excise
department, was made in testimony
of Frank Quisser. president of the
Marion County Beverage Company.
The beverage company is an inter-
venor in the suit.
Judge Cox took the case under adj
visement and authorized the filing
of briefs.

Mans Estate Left to
Housekeeper.

Will of Bert Callahan, city real
estate agent, slain mysteriously last
Thursday night. which today was Of
fered in court for probate, cuts off
relatives with S. requests, and leaves
most of the estate to a Negro
housekeeper and to friend.
A sister. Miss Marguerite Louise
Callahan of Washington, objected
to its filing and indicated she will
contest its provisions.
In the meantime, police continued
their search for cleWs to the slayers
of Mr.. Callahan, with little result.
The will names Elmer H. Landers
341 Poplar road, railroad employe
and personal friend of Mr.. Cal
lahan, as executor.
1t leaves SIS requests to John L.
Callahan, a brother; the sister
Roger Callahan. a nephew; Martin
Callahan, Harvey, Ill, brother
and the father j. F. Callahan.

provided for his father during his
life and felt that the other chill
dren should assume the duty after
his death.
After making provision for sale
of all property believed to total
more than $1,000. the will hequeaths
$50 a month to the housekeeper for
the rest of her life. At her death
the remaining sum is to go to Ruth
J. Landers, a relative of the execu-
tor. A small diamond solitaire
ring also was left to Miss Lam
ders, and an opal scarfpin, set with
twelve small diamonds, to Mrs
Lena F. Sanders.
Detectives of the homicide squad
were inclined to disparage reports
today that nervous woman who
checked a long white coat at the
Traction Terminal the night of the
murder, may have been the mys-
FERROUS woman in white seen
pounding on Mr.. Galatians front
door on the night of the murder.
The woman, according to the re-
port, was concerned about the man
ner in which the attendant handled
the coat, demanding that he hang
it up instead of folding it, Police
said that they had been unable to
find trace of such a woman.
