BONDSMEN AT PRISON FACE HARD FUTURE Barred From Corridors — Committing of Perjury Now Is Alleged. Professional bondsmen who operate at city prison today were facing a complex situation. Threatened with disbarment from the privilege of signing surety appearance bonds if they are caught loitering about police headquarters corridors soliciting business, the bondsmen now have heard that police officials are to consult with Prosecutor William H. Remy to learn if they have been committing perjury in their operations. Police say the surety bonds signed at city prison state, “I swear that my property is free from all incumbrance, and is appraised at twice the amount of the bond.” And the officers assert that, although a person may be worth SSO-, 000 in real estate, when he\signs a $25 bond he incumbers his property to the State of Indiana, and until that case '’ is disposed of and the prisoner released from the bond, the property is incumbered and signing of any other bonds would be committing perjury. Take Different View Bondsmen take a different view, Baying that so long as they do not sign bonds totalling more than half the value of their property, they are within the law. They charge $5 for every SIOO placed as surety. Municipal Judge Dan V. White recently induced Inspector of Police Claude Worley to keep the corridors and rooms of city prison free from attorneys and bondsmen when court Is not in session. The house lieutenant is instructed to patrol the building each hour, taking the names of those found there. If they are found there when the next round is made, their names are given to the court for fixing of a penalty. Lawyers will be barred from practicing in the municipal court and bondsmen will be refused the privilege of signing bonds, if they are found loitering in the building, according to Judge White. Cliques Formed Judge White Bald he learned bondsmen and attorneys had formed cliques. Prisoners were solicited as soon as they were locked up, but bondsmen refused to sign for their release unless they retained certain attorneys to defend them in court. Similarly, attorneys had certain bondsmen whom they always called for their clients. White ordered all bondsmen to get offices and telephones and if prisoners call for them they can be summoned by the turnkey. Bondsmen allege that certain competitors have inside means of ■gaming who has been arrested, and they then call for permits to
