aq because (was SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1923 HOLDS OLSON SOUGHT T0 GET. DEBT PAYMENT “Governor Gives Grounds on! Which Extradition of Mi- | not Man Was Denied | OLSON FIGHTS CASE! ' Belief that authorities of Indiana were seeking to extradite Jouigen Olson, Minot banker, to that state on charges for the purpose of enforcing collection of a debt, ond no sati explanation | y of two yeurs in| Olson, | igned by Governor | os for declining to grant the re-| tion of the Governor of tndiana | r Olson's return, The Governor | rendered his decision after a hearing | yesterd in which representativ: of the state of Indiana and Olson’s | attorney, R. Sinkler of Minot, argued the cage. charge against a Briefs in the state and a statement +f the charges had been in the hands . of Governor Nestos for sometim Objections of Sinkler that the accu ed was not properly charged with «| crime in Indiana were stained in| fart by thi Govétiior, Willey tude objections of Sinkler were dismissed. | In briefly announcing his decision to} attorneys after the discussion, Gov- ernor Nestos said that he was not dealing with the question of guilt| or innocence of Olson, but that he} was forbidden by the rules govern- | ing him to send Olson back to In-| diana to enfprce the collection of a} I debt, anu that under the North} Dakota rules the delay in indécting him must be explained and no ex- planati offered. The first) count in Indiana _ indictment | the charged Olson with a crime on Oct-| ppber 1, 1921 and February 16, 1921, And the indictment was not returned until September, 192% Two other charges against Olson,' on which previous requisitions had | been asked, were dismissed by In- Aliana authorities. Sinkler based hs charge that Ol- son was sought for collecton of aj debt chiefly tpon affidavits of Jn-} diana authorities. He also alleged | that the cashier of the closed bank had been tried but not convicted amd} that no other directors (Olson be- ing a director) had been charged with a crime thougir jdintly réspon-| sible with Olson, He quoted rule 57 of the Rules of Executive Practice as follows: “The | purpose of granting requisitions be-; ing to aid the administration of criminal law, no requisition will be issued to aid in collecting a debt or enforcing a civil remedy against’ a} person. who has, left the state, jor shalt criminal proceedings be used when said offender is arrested for, azy of such objects.” Under the laws of Indiana the Newburgh bank was a copartnership! and because of this Olson would be personally Jiable, with other direc- -tors, for any loss that the bank might ststain. | Supporting his charge that Olson was sought to enforce collection of a debt, Sinkler set out numerous af- of, Indiana authorities. The it of Charles W. Camp, state examiner, said in pa at H. Youngblood.

Roem- ler, who were receiver and attorney respectively for the Beech Grove Bank, a bank in the sububs of the City of Indianapolis, that had, fail- ed sometime before and in which the said Jourgen Olson was interested, appeared in the Governor's office and | informed the Governor that they had seen to Minot, North Dakota, and sad conferred with the said Jour-! gen Olson and his attorneys and that they believed that, if the said Jour-| gen Olson was not embarrassed by extradition proceedings and was let alone for three months, that he could make some financial deals that were then in progress, by means of | which he could raise sufficient funds to pay and satisfy the creditors of the Beech Grove Bank ‘and possibly the creditors of the Farmers Bank of Newburg, Indiana, and they re- qauested the Governor of Indiana to request the Governor of North Da- kota to delay the hearing of extra- dition for at ~ least three~months, and, in deference,to the wishes of the said Jewett and ‘Boemler, the Gover- nor of Indlana requested the prose- | cuting attorney ‘of Warrick county, | Indiana to congent to the delay; that it was against the’ judgment of. this! affiawt to-delay.the hearing and the prosecuting attorney of — Warrick | county protested and’ insisted that! ‘the said Jourgen Olson be extradited | and returned to-Indiana, and that the criminal laws of the state of Indigna be vindicated, but finally an agree- ment was reached among the. parties and the Governar.of Indiana\ wired the Governor of- North Dakota, as this affiant is informed and believes, to delay the hearing: for three} mgnths.” é a, e first charge against Olson, Sinkler, said, Was conspiracy to de- ‘frayd, the conspiraey consisting in “printing a calendar representing that real estate owned, by the bank’ directors wAs worth one million dol- lars, \ This .charge yas. deppkes. ; RAY BUTLER DIES.
