ho rase has hf-en continued !? -b'-'o paid him really amounts to

but $2. 1' ", while1 ho lias dorio mote than three times the worth of that in work, is tho statement siven out by A. ri. (Iraham, of the firm of Oraham & b'rane lawyers, reference bein made to the. story published recently concerning fees paid in the matter of the Lincoln highway. "We have not been assisting County Atty Houlihan," aid Mr. Graham yesterday, "hut have been icrvins the Lincoln Hhway association as petitioneis, and the laws of Indiana provide for tho payment of our fees by tho county, rtgardb ss of thi county attorney's service." According to County Atty. Houlihan he has never served the county in road matters, except as advisor to the hoard of county commissioners, up to the time that the suits were started with reference to the Lincoln Highway crossing at New Carlisle of the New York Central, the South Shore and Northern Indiana railways. s.uit in that matter is now pending before the state supreme court, trials having been had, twie before the state public service commission, once before the local circuit court, once before the I,aperte county circuit court, -with the appeal to the supreme court now pending. Outlines His Status. "Ordinarily," as explained by tho county attorney, "the county commissioners sit as a court in the matter of petitions for road improvements, and my position is that of advisor to the court. The law provides that the petitioners may have counsel, and the county shall pay such a counsel; also that rcmonstrators may have counsel, who shall be paid by the county. I couldn't

represent petitioners or remonstra- i

tors if I wanted to, being in theory, at lea.'t, counsel for the public as represented by the board of commissioners. When the Lincoln highway, however, had been authorized, and tho county became interested with the petitioners against an outside party, and before an outside tribunal, as in the case of the rail-

j roads before the public service commission and the courts, then it was ! mv duty to represent the county.

and I did." Mr. Houlihan states that his contract provides for extra fees for such service, as the contracts with county attorneys always have. He blames County Auditor Wolf for the whole humMib, nad without a leg to stand on if the matter were ever brought to an issue. As to the fees paid Graham fc Crane, the county attorney adds: Other Attorney' l'ees Paid. "Why doesn't the auditor say something about two foes of $1."0

v ith reference, to short strips of ii ad? Why doesn't he say they help

ed me? They were paid under thelfc

law same as Graham & Crane has been, not for assisting me, hut for serving their own clients. The only difference is that the Lincoln highway lias been a bigger affair, there has been more litigation and the fees have been larger." Atty Graham in speaking of the fees paid him says the $-.000 covers a period- of nearly four years; that he got $l,löo at one time out f which he was obliged to spend $'00; that he got Jtb'.o at another time, ar.d then came Iiis last bill of $!u)0. He asserts that th total amount paid him would ordinarily not have been g'od fees for tho actual court work done, to say nothing of hours upon hours outside of court, briefing case, attending meetings, and work

i of that order. "Not a cent has everii

l oon paid me oxcept by appropriation of the county cmn :1 and on o dor of the commissioners." Tlv stor, it is asserted, leaked

from the county auditor's offiee as j IS the result of the auditor having a Ij

grudge auauist me county attorney, whose office, it is said, ho would like to appropriate.
