NEWS IS WIIIIIER III FIRST ROUND CONTEMPT FIGHT Judge Anderson Rules That He Would Not Order Removal Unless Good Grounds For Such Action. SAYS EXPRESS MALICE PROOF IS REQUIRED Newspaper Men Claim Panama Question Was One of ; Public Morality and Public Should Know It. Indianapolis, Ind., June 2. The first encounter In the fight to remove Delevan Smith and Charles R. Williams, owners and publishers of the Indianapolis News, to Washington for trial on Indictment jl tftuntt ; there chsrgiiifc them with criminal libel in editorial comment during the campaign on the Panama Canal deal, waa won by the defendants yesterday; ' "Judge A. B. Anderson, presiding over the Indiana District, ruled emphatical ly that he would not issue an order for removal of the publishers unless', he was convinced that there was ground for indicting them for criminal libel Over the protest of the government's , attorneys, Stewart McNamara, repre senting the Department of Justice, and Charles W. Miller, United States Dis trict Attorney for Indiana, he differentiated very clearly between Implied land expressed malicious libel. The government's attorneys fought i hard to prevent the admission of evi dence, but Judge Anderson very bluntly Interfered with the declaration that ' i mii at ho chnwn nn what the indict ments are built Government's Contention. It was contended by the government's representatives that Judge Anderson was sitting as a committing .nil ttiat tttAvA was. nrt rH. son for hearing evidence further than A REBELLION . .Food Demanded. The human body will stand a lot of abuse but" sometime it will 'surely rebel and demand the proper food in place of the pasty, starchy, greasy stuffs on which - it has been made Then is the time to feed Grape-Nuts, the most scientific and perfect food in . the world. V;: A lady of Washington says: "Three years ago I was very ill with catarrh of the stomach and was given up to die by one doctor. I laid in bed four months and my stomach was so weak that I could not keen down medicine or hardly any kind of food and was so weak and emaciated after four months of this starvation that my daughter could easily lift me from bed and put me in my chair. "But weak as my stomach was, it accepted and relished and digested Grape-Nuts without any difficulty the first time that wonderful food was , tried. .. v--, "My doctor told me ' to eat GrapeNuts, which were predigested, and al though I felt certain I could not keep the food on my stomach I made the trial and it was a most complete success. "I am now strong and in better health than for a great many years and am gradually growing; still stronger. I rely on Grape-Nuts for most of the nourishment that I get. The results have certainly been wonderful in my case and prove that no stomach Is so weak it will not digest GrapeNuts. - r- . - ' "My baby got so fat from feeding on Grape-Nuts I was afraid I would have to stop giving the food to him, but' I guess it is a healthy fat for his health is Just perfect."

aft the presentation of the offensive editorials which were a part of the exhibits contained in the indictments., Once he came near stating plainly that he thought it not unreasonable that newspapers should discuss public transactions over which there was any question of any doubt. This was after Ferdinand Winters, attorney for the News referred to the government investigation of the Panama Canal deal four years ago, during which William Nelson Cromwell failed to produce the names of all the parties who were thought to be interested. The News introduced five witnesses, Ernest Lewis, member of the repertorial staff, who was stationed at Chicago during the campaign, and who testified that he had no instructions to "hand it" to the government about the canal matter; Delavan Smith, who said that he didn't know what the editorial page contained until after it appeared; Charles R. Williams, editor of the paper who took the responsibility for the offensive editorials, and Lewis Howland, editorial writer, who wrote the article. ' Not Guilty, of Malice. Mr. Winter, the attorney for the defendants, maintained today, and sought to prove his points by the evidence presented, that the newspaper publishers were not guilty of the malice necessary, to complete criminal libel, and. that they had not committed an offense for which they could be removed from one district to another for trial, and .that" the indictment charging them with criminal libel was baseless. The' government ' resisted the introduction of evidence in the hearing, Mr. McNamara and Mr. Miller contending that it was inessential for a committing magistrate to hear evidence. The exhibits of " editorials printed in the Indianapolis News, they held, were li belous if they violated a statute of the District of Columbia, providing that criminal libed may lie in the publication of an article not justified in truth and that a person found guilty may be fined not more than SI, 000 or imprisoned for more than five years, or both. The government maintained that on the face of the indictment and the in formation the defendants should be transferred to the District of Columbia for trial. Judge Anderson' ruled against the government. He called attention to the necessity of proving express, not implied, malice in a prosecution for criminel libel, and said that it was his duty to determine this question by hearing evidence before he should decide if the defendants should be removed for trial. . The Man Who Wrote. The defense then placed upon the stand Ernest I. Lewis, a staff correspondent of the News, who denied that he had had any instructions from his employers as to handling the Panama Canal matter in his dispatches from the political headquarters & Chicago during the last campaign. Further objections by the government's attorney to the admittance of evidence was made as each successive witness was called during the day, but Judge Anderson said he would hear all that was offered by either side. Judge Anderson declared malice in a civil action was very different from malice in a , criminal case. Implied malice in a newspaper publication might be sufficient to justify a judg ment for damages against the publisher. But in a criminal action a differ ent degree of malice was required... It must be express malice. CHANGE WAS MADE A portion of the east side section of the E. G. Hill Floral company has been removed to the plant In West Richmond.

DRAGNET OF THE POLICE .LAUDED MAX P. EMMERICH
Young Indianapolis Absconder Is Captured Yesterday Afternoon in a Hotel at Jack sonville, Fla. SAYS DEFALCATION TOTALS TO $30,000 He States That Paul Gall Started Him on Road to Ruin and He Committed Wrong To Right Another. Jacksonville, Fla.", June 2. Max P. Emmerich, absconding bookkeeper of the Capital National Bank, Indianapolis, was arrested here in the lobby of the Duval Hotel shortly after noon yesterday by Detective Crawford of the local force. At first he denied his identity, but finally admitted that he was the man wanted. When arrested, Emmerich was trav eling under the name of Charles M Wilson of Springfield, 111. He had been at the Duval since last Monday, and, although he was doubtfully recog nized by William Foor, proprietor of the hotel, who was formerly proprie tor of the Imperial Hotel in Indianap olis, he was not finally identified un til Indianapolis papers bearing his photo, reached this city. Foor thought he knew Emmerich when he registered a week ago last Monday, but refrained from saying anything to him, fearing that he was mistaken. When news of the embezzlement reached the local police through the Pinkerton agency and a search was begun, Emmerich had removed from the hotel to a private rooming house at 426 East- Adams street, but he still visited, the hotel and sat in the chairs about the lobby. When questioned about the man yesterday - Mr. Foor pointed out "Emmerich to Detective Crawford, who placed him under arrest, but not until he admitted his identity was the former Indianapolis man sure of the identification. " ' , . ' Makes a Clean Breast. At the police headquarters yesterday afternoon Emmerich made a clean breast of the whole affair to newspa per men in the presence of Mr. Foor, Regardless of the-fact that pressure-, ports had credited him with a shortage of not more than $10,000. Emmerich declared that his - manipulations would reach a figure of $30,000 or more. In making his statement, Emmerich implicated two other men, Paul Gall, , a cigar dealer, and H. C. Prinzler, a real estate man, both of In dianapolis. About, three years ago," said Em merich. "Paul Gall came to me and asked as a friend that I should allow him to overdraw his account, saying he didn't wish to ask the officers of the bank for a loan. Although 1 knew at the time I was doing wrong, 'I thought he would make it good in few days and the whole affair would be undiscovered. But instead of mat ing the shortage good, Gall called upon me for other and larger amounts, un til finally I went to him and demanded that he make the money good. "This he often agreed to do, telling me not to worry, that he would settle it all risrht. Fearing detection and wishing to repay the amounts taken from the bank, I went to another friend. H. C. Prinzler. a real estate dealer, told, him the whole truth and asked him to aid in a scheme to re place the money through the profits from real estate. . Prinzler Agreed to Help. "Prinzler, although he realized as did the danger if we should be caught, agreed , to the proposition, and using the bank's money through checks that came to my hands Prinzler made in vestments in real estate." Then Emmerich commented upon the looseness of the system of bank examination in Indiana, stating that he was able by a clever manipulation of the figures to make everything ap pear perfectly correct when the exam iner visited the institution in which he was employed. : Continuing, he said: "Everything went on smoothly from the start of these operations with Prinzler a little over a year ago and I had every reason to believe that when the property was sold I would be, able to replace the money and have some profit for Prinzler, due him for his trouble and risk. Then the examination of banks by special examiners, sent out from' Washington, began and I realized that it would be only a few days until I would be caught, and fearing to face my friends and family and the disgrace that would be brought upon them, I left, coming direct to Florida by way of Terre Haute and the Dixie Flyer. Wants to Right the Wrong. "I have been in Jacksonville most of the time since, except for a trip to Savannah and to the Atlanta beach. I realize that I have done wrong, and tried to right one wrong by another. But It was my only chance, and I took it, only to lose. I am willing to go back to face it all, and believe that we can make good every dollar of the money taken"I do not know the exact figures at present, but by checking over the books I will be able to tell in a few minutes. I am positive, however, that the sum will reach $30,000 or more. : Emmerich had deposited about $1,800 in a local bank, and of this the police hare secured , f tfC&TS, wfeich
who comes here to return him. Emmerich la willing to return, without requisition papers and will probably leave on Thursday or Friday In the custody of W. E. Webster, assistant superintendent of the Plnkerton Agency, who, according to advices received by the police here, left Indianapolis tonight.

WOMAN WAS SHOT BY WILD BULLET Mrs. Hutchens at Fountain City Sustains a Very Painful Wound. SHOOTING IS MYSTERIOUS A3 VICTIM STEPPED OUT OF A DOOR WA8 STRUCK IN FACE BY A FLOBERT RIFLE BALLPIERCES TONGUE. Fountain City-Ind. June 2. Mrs. Quilley Hutchens of Winchester, who has been visiting the family of Xath Hunt on a farm near , here, was the victim of a peculiar accidental shooting when she was struck in the cheek by a flobert rifle bullet, fired by an unseen and unknown person. Mrs. Hutchens had just stepped out of the house door when she felt a stinging sensation on her cheek and began bleeding at the mouth. She then discovered that a bullet had penetrated her mouth, going through the cheek and tongue. , A physician was called and on ex amination said the bullet appeared to be one fired from a .22 caliber rifle, but it was battered as though it had been deflected -from some object rather than coming direct from the gun. The wound is not considered serious unless blood poisoning should develop. SUNDAY OUTING EXCURSIONS Pennsylvania Lines, June 6.

One Fastidious Bird That Woufd Steal Only New Balls. The crow seems to be attracted to golf balls in a way wholly peculiar from the rest of the bird species. In parks, where the rook and the crow abound, one can notice them sitting in the trees or bopping about the putting greens In the distance watching the roll of the ball with a direct or sidelong glance expressive of the keenest interest and curiosity, which is soon translated Into a desire to carry it off to the rsost ra the neighboring wood. , The Kew gardens adjoin the midSurrey course, and in the royal pre serve there used to be a fairly large colony of crows nesting among the trees. Of this colony there was one particular crew that found his greatest a muse meat In mingling among the golfers and in disconcerting their play by Indulging in repeated - predatory campaigns against their golf balls. His policy was to hover In attend ance on those players who used new white balls only. Those on which the paint had been chipped or which had been vsed In play for several rounds by an economical player were always rejected by this particular bird as be ing beneath his fastidious attentionLondon Field. a - sir.

PLAI! ALOMlll DANCE Members of High School Class Of 1908 Start Ball to Rolling. ASK FOR CO-OPERATION Members of the class of 1908 of the local high school have undertaken to revive interest in the alumni dance for this year. Graduates with other classes have been asked to co-operate tq make the affair a success. It Is proposed to use a downtown hall or the pavilion at Jackson park for the purpose. Unless a guarantee can be obtained that a sufficient number will attend to defray the expenses, the high school' building will have to be used. The alumni dance is one deserving of encouragement. It is the only af fair of the year in which the gradu ates of the school take part. It serves as a reception to the commencement class that always proves a social fea ture. Not as much interest has been taken in these gatherings in recent years as formerly and it is hoped by those promoting this year's that ev erybody will help. The committee looking after the arrangements is made up of the following graduates: Miss Florence Corwin and Martha McClellan, Walker Land, Paul Fisher and Will Reller. ' The Prince and the Captain.

011 MAY POLICE REPORT The arrests made by the police de partment last month for public Intox ication are more than one half again In excess of the number for all other causes. The total number of arrests was 51 with 31 of them due to strong drink. Ths Normal Attitude Toward Death. Tbe normal attitude of men toward death seems to be one of inattention or evasion. They do not trouble sbont it; they do not want to trouble about it, and they resent Its being called to their notice. On this point the iste Frederick Myers used to ten a story which I hsve slwsys thought very illuminating. In conversation after dinner he was pressing on his host tbe unwelcome question what he thought would happen after death. After many evasions and much recalcitrancy the reluctant admission wss extorted. "Of course, if yon press me I believe that we shall an enter Into eternal bliss, bat I wish yon wouldn't talk about such disagreeable subjects." This I believe Is typical of the normal mood of most men. They don't want to be worried, and though probably, if the question were pressed, they would object to tbe idea of extinction, they can hardly be said to desire immortality. Even at the point of death, it would seem, this attitude is often maintained. O. Lowes Dickinson la Atlantic.
