ADMITS PART IN ATTEMPT TO HOLD UP ROACH Negro, Shot in Hand, Reputed to Have Confessed, Implicating Two Others. THREE FACE CHARGES William Taylor, 24, negro, 631 West Court street, against whom charges of robbery have been pending In Criminal Court for many months after It Is alleged he committed a hold-up in the northwest part of the city, today admitted that he was one of the three men who attempted to hold up and rob Detective Patrick Roach on West street Saturday night. Taylor, who was 6hot in the hand by Detective Roach, has been without medical attention since Saturday and It was not until his arrest last night that the wound was dressed by a physician. SAYS JOHNSON HIT ROACH. Taylor confessed that he was with Ludwig Johnson, 26, 838 West North street, and Clarence Jones, 22, 727 West Eleventh street, negroes, now under arrest, at the time of the attempted hold-up. He said they had been at a house on Eddy street and walked to West street. They saw Detective Roach walking south on West street and Johnson said, “Watch me hit this peck,” and as Roach passed Johnson slugged him with a "black Jack,” according to Taylor’s confession. Roach drew a revolver and fired, the bullet hitting Taylor. Johnson and Jones ran and Taylor fell. When the detective left to go to a telephone, Taylor says he also ran and later in the night met the other two at the house on Eddy street. The “black jack” was hidden under a bridge over Fall Creek. The confession was made to Detectives Fossati and Roach today and the charges of robbery and assault and lottery with intent to kill will be placed against the three negroes. The three suspects were found In an old house in what la known as “lost city” In the low lands, west of Fall Creek and north of Indiana avenue, when Sergeant Thomas’ “night riders” surrounded the place. Mayor Samuel Lewis Shank was so pleased about the arrest, of tbe three negroes suspected of being the ones who attacked Roach that he declared that the officers of the ‘night rider” squad would be promoted. Sergeant Thomas, a former police captain, was in charge of the squad. The other members of the squad, all former detectives, are Walter Coleman, George Stone and Joseph Everson. OTHERS TAKEN BY “NIGHT RAIDERS."

The other “night raider” squad arrested three negroes on vagrancy charges early today. They gave their names as Willie Jenkins, 19, 511 West Tenth street; Leslie Durham, 21, 530 Patterson street, and Elijah Prather, 29, 953 Colton street, Three men were arrested at the Traction Terminal station early today by Rominger and Patrolmen FogarA revolver was found in the Leslie Thompson, 2.. of Strong he was ares'ed charged with HttSw concealed wtat TANARUS.! and y. agPMßhkes. 16, of Monifort, attempted from the police when qc-w ■ arrested on (he charge of vagSherman Beher, 16, of Tipton, was arresLd on a similar charge. seeSoss in JITNEY LOAF American Bakers’ Manager Says 5-Cent Offering Unprofitable. The 5-cent loaf of bread cannot be made and sold profitably by the baker, according to Dr. Harry E. Barnard, burin ess manager rs the American Bakers' association, attending the convention of the Indiana Association of the Baking Industry here today Some department and chain stores are selling bread now at 5 cents a loaf, according to st.-itements made at the convention. Dr. Barnard’s explanation was that only such stores can afford to sell 6-cent loaves because they sell other products on which they make a profit and can sustain a loss on bread. He said that the ingredients of a loaf of bread amount to 6 cents before the labor cost Is added. I. L. Miller, Indiana food and drug commissioner, addressed the convention, suggesting a change in the State baking law to eliminate the three-quarter-pound loaf of bread. He said it has resulted in considerable confusion because of Its similarity In size to the pound loaf. J. M. Hartley of Chicago, in speaking on the subject, “On the Other Side of the Counter,” suggested a State trade commission to untangle commercial difficulties. New officers of the association elected yesterday afternoon are: E. K. Quigg, Richmond, president; A. W. Wilkinson, Rushvllle, vice president, aDd J. A. Dietzen, Frankfort, treasurer. The president will appoint a secretary. The board of the national association and of the American Baking Institute was discussed by A. L. Taggart, Tice president of the American Bakers Association. Mr. Taggart said that some bakers are sacrificing quality In bread for price. 86 PATIENTS AT SUNNYSIDE Report for Month Gives Record of Donations to Institution.

BURRIS SEEKS TO COMPEL ALL FEE PAYMENTS Reports Little Derived From Amusement Act Passed in 1917. A campaign to compel moving picture shows, theaters, circuses, wagon shows, traveling merchants and peddlers and other people to pay to the Auditor of State the money required by a law passed by the 1917 session of the Legislature has been instituted by Ben Burris, State superintendent of public instruction.

QUESTIONNAIRES SENT TO AUDITORS. Since the law was enacted in 1917, very little money has been collected by the county auditors for this purpose, Mr. Burris said. Questionnairs have been seat to all county auditors requiring them to report to the Srate superintendent of public instruction, the number of people taxable under this law. If those required to pay the tax to tbe State do not comply with the law, the State board will institute a suit, and attempt to obtain the money by a judgment. Several thousand dollars have been collected by the State during the past five years, from several counties of the State, but Mr. Burris said that more than half of the ninety-two counties have not complied with the law.
