SMALL SEEKS TO SURRENDER ON HIS BONDS Attorneys Demand Copy So Governor Can Be Delivered to Another Court.

WILL CHOOSE CHICAGO SPRINGFIELI . 111., Aug. 11.—Governor Len Small of Illinois vas to spend part of his $50,(00 “liberty” outside Springfield late today. The Governor left tne capital at noon, taking an Illinois Central train to his home at Kankakee. He announced he probably would attend a Dixie road meeting at Momence tomorrow. His schedule calls for a visit to Chicago over the week-end, but it is intimated this might be' postponed His battery of attorneys, headed now by Corporation Counsel Samuel A. Ettelton of Chicago, meanwhile laid pi* l is for next legal clash with Sangamon “Vonnty officials—a habeas corpus proceedings. The legal aspect of the case developed Into a battle of wits between opposing counsel. The Governor, in a bitterly caustic statement late yesterday, blamed his predicament on the Sangamon County “vice ring" and openly threatened retaliatory prosecutions, llis statement was interpreted to Indicate his legal advisers Intended to investigate State war contracts. Thia referent e was closely associated with his naming ct a “war b<mr<i" early In the week to probe the adjutant general's department. Sheriff Her.y Mester has counter attacked the Governor for his statement. The sheriff took exception to the Governor's charge that his deputies were "picked from the slums of Springfield.” “I deeply regret the Governor was so poorly advised of my visit to the State House,'', said the sheriff. “I took along a few of my regular deputies because the Governor had declared Ue would not submit to arrest. I was prepared to arre-t him by force.” The sherlfT also denied that the Governor was Jeered while in the formers off -e. He declared it was the Go veer's own friends who througed the corridors of the State House and court house before and after the arrest. Attorneys for both aides meanwhile were delving into dusty law books seeking precedents and opinions on the usage of the habeas corpus. They willingly admitted that thia action loomed as the next step “at law." Former Congressman James M. Graham of the Gov.ernor's counsel, opened this fight by demanding a certified copy of the Governor a bonds from Sheriff Mester. The request was refused u-mporarilv by the sheriff, pending a decision from State's Attorney C. Fred Mortimer. The latter Informed the sheriff the statutes did not compel the sheriff to produce a copy of the bonds. On the other band, the Governor's attorneys assailed this opinion. Attorney George B. B Gillespie declared the sheriff was compelled by law to produce a copy. The intimation was given that legal step* might be taken to compel the sheriff to comply. The copy, it was explained, would be the basis of the habeas corpus action. To bring the habeas corpus Into play, both • ides admitted the Governor mast be “surrendered" on his bonds. Fossession of a copy of the bonds would enable hi counsel to “surrender" the Governor to law officers outside Sangamon County. It is this step, reports today confirmed, that will be taken next in the fight to teat the legality of hU arrest. A report that the habeas corpus action would be takeD before the State Supreme Court was discounted by legal authorities here. All Indications now point to the proceeding being brought before a Cook County judge at Chicago.

UNBORN CHILD NOW FIGURES IN KENNEDY CASE (Continued From Page One.) to come. We do not believe murder was premeditated. “We will present ldence to the grand jury to show that B rch, with a shotgun In his hands, approached Kennedy and Insisted that he marry her at once—that night. In an effort to frighten Kennedy, we believe Burch fired. “According to a neighbor, an interval of a minute and a half elapsed before the second shot. In this period, it Is our contention that an argument ensued and that Kennedy, despite the shotgun pointed at him, attempted to draw his revolver. “He wtsn’t quick enough. He was found dead with the revolver In his hand. Tals scene was expected to bring about a marriage—and ended in a murder.” Bun h, in his cell, gave the United Press nis first authorized statement today : “I knew Madalynne Obenchaln when we were in college together. We were good chums then; that was all. I will tell the story as soon as my attorneys, who will Include some of the most prominent in the country, are definitely decided upon.

“I feel that any statement regarding Madalynne aud myself should come from her," he explained. “She Is In great difficulty. I would not want to cause her any trouble —I don't mean regarding this case—but mental trouble.” In response to subpoenaee more than fifteen witnesses gathered at the court house today to testify before the grand Jury. One of the most important witnesses is a clerk In a gun store whose testimony and identity has been guarded with closest secrecy by the district attorney and other investigators. Officials admitted, however, that this clerk has partly identified Burch as the man who tried to buy 12 guage shotgun shells “loaded with halls" from him ten days ago. When told that the store had no shells of that sort the man. whom the clerk Is said to have declared "looks like” Burch, bought shells con talning the largest size shot in the house. SECRET WITNESSES TO APPEAR. It also was intimated by officials that several "secret” witnesses were scheduled to appear at the hearing and their testimony will be sprung ns a surprise, i Deputies aud attorneys carefully guarded the Identity of these witnesses, but it was learned that from them the State will seek to establish several important points. "One of ties* is where Burch wont on several lights when bo hurriedly left his hotel room. Another is where he was on the night of the murder, and a third ia the route of the "death car" on the night of the murder. •If the grand Jury fails to return Indictments It Is stated that attorneys for Mrs. Obenchaln and Burch will start habeas corpus proceedings to obtain j their release* from jail. ; THINKS BI RCH j BOt GUT SHELLS. I One main strand was worsn Into the I net of circumstantial evidence entangling Burch today, a matter of a few hours before the grand jury wa sto consider the arrev of facts against him.

for a hardware and gun store on South Main street. Howell told the district attorney that ten days before the murder he had sold shotgun shells to a man answering the description of Burch. “They took mo to see Burch,” Howell said. “I am pretty sure he Is the man I sold the shells to. “I hate to make a positive assertion, j where a mistake could do the man so much damage—but just the same I told the district attorney that I think Burch j was the man. "The man who bought the ammunition i from me asked for shells loaded with balls. We didn't have that kind. I sold him some containing the largest size shot we had. “I understand the cartridges found near the murder correspond pretty well with the kind I sold this customer. I haven't seem them myself." Tho grand Jury was ordered convened at 10 a. m. today. Four new witnesses, heretofore unnamed In connection with the case, wore summoned to testify before the grand jury.

ZONE FARES TO SOLVE STREET RAIL PROBLEM Traction Expert Says Companies Will Be Ruined Unless System Adopted. CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. 11.—Street railways face ruin unless the zone fare system Is put in operation, Peter Witt, foremost traction expert of the country, said today. “The street car companies at Des Moines and Bay City, Mich., were forced to quit because the value of a dollar changed, prices soared and fares remained the same," said Witt. “When relief did come. It came too late.” Many of the nation's street car companies are facing bankruptcy, said Witt, “l’be remedy,” he said, "is the adoption of the zone fare system, and charge what a ride is worth. In other words if a man rides nine blocks, he should not be forced to pay as much as a man who rides nine miles.” JITNEYS HOLD SWAY IN DAY CITY AND SAGINAW BAY CITY, Mich., Aug. 11.—This city and Its neighbor," Saginaw, took the jitney route to work today.
