As the relief plane came to a

Finally the police drove an auto

lifted from the plane to the closed

motorcycle escort, the automobile
was driven into the Junkers hangar
and the doors were closed.

In returning ten additional Indict

based upon alleged embezzlement
of the prohibition funds and upon
each of which indictments the
names of the snme witnesses who
new or additional testimony was

Interests of Justice and fair play
,to relate to tho )oplo of this
county oiuh of the facts and cir
cumstances underlying this so-called
Investigation by this grand Jury
and the return of these Indictments.
"This same grand Jury has been
in session since sometime la Feb
ruary, and as Is shown by the
names of the witnesses endorsed
at the foot of these Indictments, It
has heard, among other witnesses,
I he testimony of handwriting ex
perts, peace officers and stool pig
eons, and such investigation has
meant un oiitli.v to thlu pnnnlv nf
a large sum of money. Under duto
I'"' A',r" 1Mh- lai!8. an indictment
was returned against Mr. Chancy,
charging him; with having convert
ed JJlo.O'l of money belonging
the prohibition fund of this county
lo his own personal use. This con
version was alleged to have taken
place on June 4th, ID I'll. As soon
as the indictment was returned,
Mr. Chaney waived his rights for
time and Immediately plended 'not
guilty.' and tho date of the trial
was set for May 14th. Tho counsel
for the defense, at such time not
even knowing definitely upon what
the Indictment was based. A con-1
vlctlon upon such a chargo would
mean imnrisonment In tho state
ANY
penitentiary for from one to 15ntl wuh paid for his counsel
years, nnd by a fine equal to the
amount of money taken, and pre
sumptively this Indictment em-
braces what the special prosecutors!
will consider ttholr strongest case.
Hence, n conviction or nn acquittal
would necessarily mean tho end of
this controversy.
"In view of such a situation It
was deemed by all that no further
indictments would be returned and
that this case could be heard upon
Its merits without any attempt up
on tho part of anyone to further
Influence or prejudice any prospec
tive Jurors. Hence, we are at loss
to understand why such grand
Jury, after returning this first in
dictment on April 11th, and sub
sequently meeting several times
thereafter, and without apparently
examining any new evidence, on as
late a date as Tuesday, April 24th,
came In nnd returned this ava
lanche of Indictments, except for
the purpose of attempting to hoi
ster up the state's case on this one
Indictment and to try to unswer
the criticism which has necessarily
been placed upon them hy reatfon
of their action In this matter.
"Wo have offered our services
voluntarily to Mr. Chaney, knowing
that we will . receive no remunera
tion or compensation for the same,
6 i and not expecting any, and with
1 J the knowledge, that he hnd vol
untarily turned over nil of his or

golfer, was far In the rear at the
finish of the first 36 holes of his
72-hole golf match with Archie
Compston, llritlsh professional to
day, Comrtston being fourteen up.
Two rounds of devastating golf
put Ilugen in almost hopeless posi
tion. Never hus a London golfing
gallery seen an American star of
Jlagen's caliber in such helpless
straits ns llagen was all day long
before the faultless game displayed
by Compston.
Two rounds of 67 and 66 on a
pnr course with thirteen birdies
Included in Compston's score made
llagen's golf seem really worse
than It really was.
llagen came home in one over
fours and still lost seven holes.
Compston created a new golfing
record, making two short holes
twice In twoB on the same day for
four of his birdies. Hngen had
another unUBUnl experience, for
this afternoon the sport loving
llritlsh gallery oherred him sym
pathetically as he struggled for
holes he. could not win. Hagen is
used to cheers but cheers for the
victor, not for the vanquished. .
Throughout the day Compston
outdrove the American, which was
expected, but also outplayed him
around the greens and on them.
On a dozen greens Compston took
only one putt, rarely three, while
Mugen took three numerous times.
Time lifter time llagen pulled his
putts to the left and lost another
hole.

there will be hardly need for a
fourth round.

Hagen ......5 4 3 6 ( 5 3 4 4 38
Hagen played without the bril
liant dash and fighting spirit that
the Ilrlttsti gallery had expected
of him. He only began to show
a flash of the golf which was
expected near the end of the
round.
Compston's golf was unbeat
able. His 67 was within' a stroke
of Handy Herd's course record of
60.
Compston" by dazzling golf,
ruccd to a five-hole lead over
Hagen in the outward journey of
tho first round. The American
played 13 holes before he could
win one of them, and then took
two more, the fifteenth and the
eighteenth, before going to lunch,
four down. .
CompBton outclassed Hagen In
nil the phases of the game on the
outward Journey and smothered
his opponent with a flock of rive
birdies, holing putts from all cor
ners of the green. He added two
birdies on the homeward Journey,
but Hagen had recovered and
steady par figures with one hlrdle
let him chop down his opponent's
lend.
