Two suits filed by attorney against Elmer E Stoner unfold

The Greenfield Republican reports that A R Black filed two bribery election law suits against Elmer E Stoner on the relation of Nelson Lace and Joseph Hamilton. It hints at personal friction between Black and Stoner. Also noted is the resignation of Rev T DeWitt Talmage from First Presbyterian Washington due to rising demands of religious journalism and continual calls for broader church work. A separate brief mentions a mystery around a path near the Chicago and Erie tracks by the depot Monday morning.
