Attorney Charges Prison Kidnapers Were Mistreated.
LA PORTE, Ind, Sept. 8 (U. P.) — Two suits against Warden Alfred F. Dowd of the State Prison at Michigan City, asking his impeachment and $10,000 personal damages on a libel charge were on file today in La Porte Circuit Court by T. Ernest Maholm, an Indianapolis attorney. The suits were regarded as an outgrowth of kidnaping indictments voted against Earl Niverson, Rich-
ard Sweet and Alphonse Skusewich, convicts who held a Crawfordsville welfare worker as hostage while they bartered with prison officials for freedom.
ws,
Mr. Maholm’s impeachment suit] listed 17 separate acts of alleged failures of official duty on Dowd’s part. The charges largely alleged | that Dowd was guilty of cruelty,| particularly to the three prisoners. One of the charges alleged that he had them beaten into unconsciousness and kept in the “hole” without sufficient food or drink. The libel suit charged that Dowd defamed the attorney's character in a letter written to Mrs. Lillian Grove of South Gate, Cal, Niverson's sister, Niverson is a client of Maholm. The impeachment suit was made returnable Sept. 16 while the libel suit must be answered by Sept. 20,
