Columbus, Ohio, Feb, 15 (P— Stolen money found on the body of a dead thief may be used to pay his funeral expenses and other costs in administering his estate, the Ohio supreme court held in effect today in refusing to review a case involv- ing use of such money found on a slain bank robber. The case grew out of the robbing of a bank here May 22, 1923. One of the robbers, V. C. Stewart, was Killed later in the day by police of- ficers, On his person was found $2,004 of the loot obtained. Administrators of his estate used $745 of the money for funeral ex- penaes and costs of administering the estate. The bonding company which re- imbursed the bank contended that the administrators could not make such use of the money. The lower courts held it was legal. The su- preme court today refused to review the case. . COMMITTEE FAVORS BITUMINOUS PROBE (Continued from First Page) the money out of the bank.

At police head- quarters police told Captain Kelly the fortune teller told him to go to the bank and withdraw the mioney so that she might give it her “bless- ing.” She actually made wmotions with her hands over the roll of bills, he said, before she staged the trick with the glass of water. Later, how- ever, he told Sergeant Ellinger he had been to the bank and had drawn the money hefore the fortune teller Wmlvd at his home. He also fold the | sergeant he had been talking to both | women on the strect before the “‘dark Spanlard” had called on him. That the trance Gomes descrfbed was accomplished as quickly as his story Indlcated is questioned by (hc police. Belleve Victim Was Doped While going about the city with Sergeant Ellinger, Gomes com- plained of a severe headache, and his eyes had the appearance of be- ‘II\[.' tired. The police believe a drug lor anacsthetic of great power might have been placed in the water unknown to Gomes, so as to insure a long period of unconsciousness and allow the fortune teller to ob- taln a good start away from the i neighborhood and probably away from the city. Gonies said he had not been drinking and he did net en- tertain the fortune teller in any way. He =aid he had not seen her until vesterday and hie had no idea as to her whereahouts.

Stephenson spoke in & clear, rapid manner. When one of the jurors hearing the case requested that Stephenson face the jury, Stephenson complied, declaring: . *I want to see you, too.” Tells of Talks Stephenson told the jury he had talked with Jackson in regard to the appointment of a prosecuting at- torney four or five times before Gov- ernor McCray eventually named Willlam H. Remy to the post. Stephenson said the matter also was discussed with Coffin and Marsh, who also are under indictment. Asked what Jackson had sald at one meeting regarding the appoint- ment, the witness said: “As I recall now, Mr, Jackson said he had been informed that Wil- liam P. Evans was going to resign and he pointed out if a man got it who would use it for political pur- poses it might hurt his candidacy.” Jackson Was Apart At the time Jackson was secretary of state and a prospective candidate on the republican ticket for gover- nor, Stephenson said Jackson was afrald that if some one unfaverablc to his candidacy gained the prose- injure Jackson. Emsley W. Johnson, special assist- ant prosecutor, interrogated Steph- enson. He asked the witness to tell something of Coffin's part in the al- leged conspiracy. Coffin told him on one occasion that it someone .‘hostile” got the ap- pointment it would break up the group with which he was connected. The witness said he had been | designated to go to James W. Noel, one of Governor McCray's attorneys, and make him & proposition to do- nate $10,000 toward McCray's de- fense fund it McCray would make a favorable appointment. Coffin, ac- cording to Stephenson, declared ft to “be dangerous business trying to buy a governor.” Details of Plan Relating what ]|5 said were details of the plan to gain’the office, Steph- enson said: “It was suggested by some one, I don't recall who, that I see Noel and tell him I would donatc $10,000 in the event he could per- suade McCray to name one designat- ed by our group. Marsh introduced me to Noel. Evans and if he ‘would use his in- fluence with McCray that I would donate $10.000 to the defense of Mc- |Cray. (The defense fund referred to was one being raised by friends of McCray to engage attorneys to de- fend in the courts cases then pend- ing against him. He was charged with embezzlement). The former grand dragon said Noel told him to return to his office |at 2 o'clock that afternoon. Steph- enson said when he saw Noel he was informed that McCray had already made up his mind to the appoint- tempt to influence him and thought an effort was being made to “prey on his misfortune.” It was at that point that Stephen- son said: “We had a sob fest after losing the appointment.” Fred B. Robinson, former state | purchasing agent and campaign’ manager for Governor McCray, re- sumed the stand at the opening of the court session today but was dis- missed after a few prefunctory ques- tions. Yesterday he told the jury that he, as an agent for Coffin and Jackson, visited McCray and offered him $10,000 if he would name Mc- Donald as ;\rnuncu(or. Boston Hot Weather Boston, Feb. 15 (UP)—Unseason- ably warm weather continued in this section of New England today.
