This fault of his may be responsi- ble for his commitment to the Illinois state prison at Joliet for three Wilson yesterday made the mistake of talking too much in the presence of Chris J. Martineson, Bismarck po- lice chief. He was brought to a local hospital Sunday night after being struck by a hit and run driver on the Memorial highway 200 yards this side of the Missouri river bridge, He gave two different names at the hospital yesterday when officials at- tempted to learn his identity. Martineson immediately communi- cated with R. B. Ziegler and Edwin J. Green, parole officer and warden, at the Illinois prison.

Wilson six years ago was commit- ted to the Illinois prison for a term of six years after being found guilty of a. statutory charge. He was paroled after three years but broke parole and had not been located by officials until now, it is said. Wilson, still in the hospital suffer- ing from a minor shock, will be ar- rested by Martineson as soon as he is released. Hospital authorities believe he will be in condition to leave to- morrow.

STATE COURT HEARS GRAIN FIRMS CASE Arguments were presented to the state supreme court today in the case of the Hoover Grain company vs. H. Thoresen as tax commissioner, in- volving the right of the state to levy an income tax upon the plaintiff's business. The company paid $1,407.38 income taxes in 1925 upon that pa of its in- come received from business done in North Dakota. Later it sought a re- bate, which was denied, and the case was brought to the Burleigh county district court. The lower court up- held the position of the tax commis- sioner and the appeal was taken from its decision. The grain company contends that since it is a commission firm and all grain marketed by it was sold at Min- neapolis and Duluth, none of its Profits were received in North Dakota and are not taxable in this state. The tax commissioner claims that it is @ North Dakota -corporation, Protected by the laws of the state and with its home office at Grand Forks, ‘The fact that it paid out thousands of dollars in salaries and expenses to employes within the state, it is contended, is proof that a part of its business is carried on here.

Fish said that as he was bringing the yacht up New York bay on the way from Wilmington, Del., where he had purchased it, he saw a coast guard boat coming toward him. He went to within 100 yards of the patrol boat, he said, and, receiving no sig- nal, pursued his course, then turned the wheel over to Captain Larsen, an employe of the American Car and Foundry company, from which he had purchased the yacht. “Bhortly after he had taken charge of the boat,” Mr. Fish said in his com- plaint, “he turned the boat directly across its course and stopped it. On asking him why he had done so, he informed me that the coast guard was shooting. Whether at us or in the air I am unable to say, as we were not hit. “The coast guard then came along- side in a very choppy sea and insisted hin Ari put @ man aboard to search it, covering us with five or six any regedit or revolVers of sim- ilar type. The representative who came aboard searched the boat for Uquor, found none, and informed us that we were very lucky that they had not turned the machine gun loose oo stop.” Fish told newspaper men that, al- though his wife and two young sons were present, the search was accom- panied by a “frightful outburst of Profanity and vulgar language.” NEW BOWLING TEAM CHAMP GETS CROWN Chicago, April 2—(AP)—A new champion will be crowned in the five- man division, feature event of the American Bowling Congress tourna- ment.
