She / | did not know it was to be a house 'of tragedy. Sachs took over the house heavily mortgaged. The sister left several months ago. But Hillman stayed on. He did not work —he could not hear well. He read a great deal, and he brooded. He th ugbt he had beer w -onged when t Sachs was given title to the house, and he grew suspicious. He locked the door of his room, and refused to allow Mia. Sachs in to clean it. Bey Witness The climaJr. that turned the house from a house of trouble into a house of trage iy, came Tueeday. Lloyd was there, and he remembers it vividly; so vividly that he has not been able to eat since. “I*m not hungry.” he says when meal time comes. Lioyd decribed the scene Treeday with simplicity of a boy. There were no dramatics., ""Father” (the boy called Sachs "father" or "Bill" throughout his talk) "came home from work at J. C. Perry & 00., late In the afternoon,” he said. "Mother and Delores and I were In the kitchen with/the man-’* Lloyd referred to Hillman as “the man" almost always. Occasionally he called him “Fritz." Health Board Called "The board of health man had been here earlier in the day," bo explained. “They called him cause my uncle wouldn't let motn er clean his room. He kept the door locked. The board of health said that room was enough to kill a horse. When the man left,, Fritz said to mother, ‘You started the ball rolling, and I’m going to finish It.’ I didn't know what he meant. • "When my father came hone, he hung up his coat and sa<d to my mother: *How many eggs do the birds have, sweetie?’ “ Sachs raised canaries as a hobby. He had a cage with t~o pairs. "Mother said, Three/ ” the boy went on. "My father hung his coat up. The man went Over to his own coat on the other wall.

Motor Measures Withdrawn Representative Ebaugh, Indianapolis, Unlay obtained consent of the House to withdraw two bills calling for a 4-cent gasoline tax and providing fov permanent registration of motor vehicles. Assurance of passage of a 8-eent gasoline tax bill and of the Lafuse bill licensing motor vehicles by weight and horsepower prompted withdrawal, Ebaugh explained.

Prosecutor William H. Remy also indicated all is not over yet, perhaps. "I have promised no one immunity,” said Remy. "It is not in my 1 power. The case is in the hands of the grand Jury, and I want to soy I will bring no pressurwon- that body one way or the other.” • -- "A criminal offense is not Ilk# a civil case, which can be withdrawn by the plaintiff. Ooce in the hands of the State, it is the law —the witnesses have nothing to do with it." Would Push Charges "They came voluntarily and asked an investigation, which was made. If Indictments are returned by the. grand Jury I will certainly push them to the end." L Nejdl asserted positively this morning that no promises had been made the recalcitrant minority concerning the Penrod bill which caused the revolt. ' “ "Von Orman nor myself promised them nothing in regard to that bill, and I would not be surprised to see it passed the first time bills come up for third reading in the Senate." he said. "All w promised them was immunity from arrest by the Senate. They are already Immune from arrest on any Indictments until after the end of the session.” 1 ,f As to the grand Jury action, I could not promise them any im munity or that the investigation will be stopped. That is in the hands of Marion County authorities. ’’ No New Bolt It was believed the Democratic Senators would not attempt another bolt if Republicans should attempt to pass the gerrymander. Senator Lutz of' Boonvllle, Democrat, said: “We are back and if j they disregard the agreement given ]to us hy Van Orman, it’s up to j them.” Senator Saunders of Biuffton said, there would not be another bolt If. “the Republicans f tried to go hack on their word received in good faith by the Democrats,”

STEPHENSON BACK DF SENATE PEACE (Continued From Page One) seph Cravens had difficulty in holding them in check. The long distance telephone between Indianapolis and Democratic Dayton headquarters was kept hot until late in the afternoon. Senator Charles C. Batt, talked to an “Indianapolis business man,” who urged him to come back. Attorney General Charles C. Gilliom called Senator Perkins, South Bend, and promised him Immunity from indictment if he would return, according to Perkins. Perkins thanked his fellow townsman (Gllliom is also from South Bend), but declined to come. Promised Immunity Senator Crosby. Huntington, also was promised immunity if he would return. Senator King, Sweetser. talked to "an Indianapolis business man,” who assured him everything the Democrats wanted would be granted "for the benefit of the State and the taxpayers and for the good Os both political parties.” Later in the afternoon it was discovered the calls from the “Indianapolis business man” were coming in over the Dayton local lines. Sen ator .Joseph and Harmon left the Gibbons Hotel and conferred for an hour with an emissary from Van Orman. The Indianapolis Times correspondent accosted Stephenson In the lobby of the hotel. "What’s the lowdown, Steve?” he was asked. “Oh, I!m just visiting friends here in Dayton, along with attending to a few little business matters,” he said as he grinned and walked away. Following -the conference Cravens and HArmon announced to the cau c.us they were ready to return, but did not divulge the name of the "Indianapolis business man.” Later, Senators King and Easton conferred with Stephenson ans afterward again assured the bolters they were ready to return. “Well, I for one will go back whether you fellows do or not," King said. Senator SaOhders, Bluffton, said, “Os course we do not know who your informer-was and we will act on the words of Senator Cravens and Senator Chambers.” Start Home At a conference shortly after dinner Cravens gave the word and the bolters 'grabbed their overcoats—they had no baggage—and entrained in the “big blue bus” which stood waiting them in front of the hotel. Stephenson's limousine, Indiana license No. 33, followed the bus out of .Day ton and passed the senatorial party Just as it crossed the Indiana line. .; With Stephenson were Omer Haw--tins, sheriff of Marlon County, and Representative H. Walker De Haven of Indianapolis. Van Orman was awaiting the Democrats at the Claypool and wel corned them. “You will be welcomed in just as hearty a manner as you were the first day of the session,” Van Orman said ■** '' ‘ It was intimated that Senator Penrod, author of the gerrymander bill, might withdraw the bill in an effort to show good faith on the part of the Republicans. Senator Lindley, Kingman, leader of the farm bloc, in. telephone conversations and by felegram ‘.assured the Democrats he would lead the fight against the hill. The Democratic policy in the Senate durirg the balance of the session will not be to obstruct, leaders said, fcj'.f they want sober consideration o' the administration appropriation bill.
