Two Murder Cases Slated for Trial In District Court (Continued from page one) and Young represent the railroad company. Suit of $15,000 is being waged by W. J, Altringer against Alfred Karlson, a farmer north of the city, whose car struck Jeanette Altringer last April 11 at Rosser and Twelfth streets. Karlson was arrested by the police at the time but the only case they were able to make out against him then was failure to report the accident. Police Magistrate E. S. Allen fined Karlson on that charge, but recently, in looking up the law, he says, he found he had no authority to impose the fine and he is planning to ask the city commission to remit the amount. William Langer represents the Altringers and George M. and George S. Register will appear for Karlson. Ford Tax Case Back Dr. F. M.
