"a INSULL'S PLEA FOR REDUCTION IN BOND REJECTED BY COURT Chicago Jurist Holds Govern- « ment Entitled to Assurance of His Presence Chicago, May 10.—(4)—Samuel In- ull Thursday was refused a reduction Gf the $200,000 bond under which he #5 held prisoner in the Cook county Sail. * Judge Will M. Sparks of the U. 8. Circuit Court of Appeals said he felt the evidence did not entitle the 74- year-old defendant to any lowering ot ‘the bond which Insull's attorney, Floyd E. Thompson, asserted was the highest ever demanded of a defendant ia any United States Court. Thompson had brought his plea be- fore Judge Sparks in a petition for a habeas corpus writ. Insull himself re- + mained in the county jail hospital where he has rested since Judge John F. Barnes Tuesday fixed the bond on charges of using the mails fraudu- Jently and violating the bankruptcy ret. Forest A. Harness, special assistant attorney general, told Judge Sparks the government would show that frauds involving one hundred million dollars were committed in the mail fraud case and that $2,000,000 was in- volved in the alleged mishandling of assets in anticivation of bankruptcy. Entitled to Assurance “The importance of these sums,” ‘Harness said, “entitles the government to assurance that Insull will be on hand for his trials.” Judge Sparks concluded the hearing with the remark: . .I do not see how any one could refuse you a hearing, but I am going to deny your application.” iyson. a former chief justice of the Illinois sunreme court. had tola Judge Sparks that the erstwhile mul- timillionaire was wholly without prop- erty or funds and that to fix so great: «a sum for his bond was tantamount to denying him the right to bail. Insull’s son, Samuel Jr. and his attorney had prepared to supply 100.000 bond if necessary, and said ‘Thursday they could raise the extra $50,000 the state demands on its in- dictments of embezzlement. But $200,000 they insisted, was beyond their power. Nevertheless, refused any aid from Judge Sparks, Thompson said that two courses remain open. He may eppeal the habeas corpus proceeding to the circuit court of appeals, since Judge Sparks was sittiing today as a Judge of the district court, or he may seek to raise more funds. * Samuel, Jr., left the court at the close of the hearing to tell his father of the adverse decision. Reed May Run for Old Seat in Senate Kansas City, May 10.—(?)—Former Senator James A. Reed of Missouri, said on his arrival here Thursday from Chicago that he had not defin- itely decided whether he would seek the Democratic nomination for his old seat in the United States senate. + Asked if there was a possibility he would be a candidate, he shrugged his shoulders and said: “All things are possible.” Shown Chicago news reports quot- ing him as saying that “I think I'll try it,” the former senator stated he would not say that he had been mis- quoted, “But I do think someone who'll tell the people what's going on at Wash- ington should run,” he added.
