PENDING GRAND JURY'S AGTION

Prisoner Claims Shooting of Callahan Here in 1934 Was Accidental.

Charles Streeton, 37, of Cincinnati, today awaited Marion County Grand Jury action on charges that he jnurdered Bert Callahan, IndianHis real estate operator, in 1934.

He was returned yesterday frome San Francisco where he was arrested by Department of Justice agents. He told police ‘here that the shooting, which occurred in Mr. Callahan’s home, was accidental.

Streeton, a knife thrower and sharpshooter for carnivals and circuses, said he had had a pickup acquaintance with Mr. Callahan that lasted over a period of several weeks, police said.

Reveals Gun Purchase

Police reported Streeton told them that on the day of the shooting, he had bought a rifle at Mr. Callahan’s suggestion and that they had intended to drive to Cincinnati, where they expected to go frog hunting. The gun, he told police, was placed in the Callahan home and the two went downtown to drink beer, police reported. They returned late that night, Streeton told police, and Mr. Callahan made an improper advance which precipitated the fight. Streeton told police that Mr. Callahan produced a pistol and menaced him, but that he was unable to wrest it from the real estate operator’s hands.

Exploded in Struggle

Later in the scramble, Streeton told police, Callahan got the rifle and while they struggled near the front door of the home, the rifle exploded, police said. Mr. Callahan fell, mortally wounded, and Streeton told police he covered the body with a rug, took some money from Mr. Callahan's pocket,

some clothing and his pistol and

left. The fugitive took a bus for Cincinnati, he told police, was joined by a woman friend, and together

HOLDS WRONG FORMS ISSUED BY GOVERNOR

Attorney “donerdl Jackson Infers Purdue Commissions Not Legal.

Commission forms used by Governor Townsend in appointment of

Purdue University trustees were issued under the wrong law, Attorney Gen. Omar 8S. Jackson held in effect in an opinion handed down today. The opinion was requested by the Governor's office after Purdue trustees had asked whether the 1933 State Reorganization Act applied to them. Dick Heller, Gavernor's secretary, said, “If there has been a mistake it will be corrected.” The commissions, issued by the

Governor several months ago, noti- |
