HEAR BADER ARGUMENTS.

Jasper County False Claim Case Before Supreme Court. Indianapolis, Ind., April 26 Arguments in the case of Clinton L. Bader, or Charles Bader,

were heard in the supreme court yesterday. Bader was convicted in the Jasper circuit court fifteen months ago on a charge of having presented a false claim to the commissioners of that county, in filing a ball in behalf of, the Winamac Bridge Company, of which he was a representative. The case attracted unusual attention at the time because of the fact that when Bader was convicted Governor Marshall issued a parole for him, pending the decision of the supreme court, provided appeal was taken within a certain time, and the conditions were complied with.

Bader’s real name is Clinton L. Bader, but as appellant in the case, his name was given as Charles Bader, due to an error. G. A. \\ illiams of Rensselaer appeared in Bader’s behalf, asserting that the charge against the accused was not sufficiently explicit to warrant conviction. The state was represented by Fred Longwell, prosecuting attorney.
