COURTHOUSE NEWS Trial of John Mackey Taken Up Before Spcial Judge Lutz Todav. JURY NOT SELECTED At Press Time—Ed Tobin Found Guilty of Assault With Intent. Immediately ujion the conclusion of tlie Ed Tobin trial, another important state case was taken up this morning in the circuit court before Special Judge Clark J. Lutz and a jury, being ' the case of John Mackey, who, with ' Ode McClish, co-defendant, was 1 charged with conspiring to steal, and 1 also with stealing, the sum of 3515 1 from Edward Marshand, October 2.1 1909, the affidavit having been made [ by Air. .Marschand. This is one of, the several similar cases in which McClish, with others, was implicated, and for conviction in one of which AlcClish is now serving a sentence tn the state's prison. Prosecutor Parrish is the state's attorney, and Jo' ain i Aloran is conducting the ae f ense X. 1 motion filed Tuesday afternoon lo quash the first count of thb affidavit In which conspiracy V o s t ea i was charged, was thia 'Morning sustained, and this count w as quashed. The motion to quaqh the second count, which charges McClish , and Mackey with the ttelual stealing of the money, was overruled and the trial will be based upon this charge alone—that of actual stealing, as Mackey entered a plea of not guilty In his defense, it is said Mackey will put up the plea that he also put up money with .Marschand, and that he also lost his, McClish getting -his along with that of Marschand. There seems to be great difficulty in finding a jury. The entire day was given over to this and at time of going to press, the selection of a jury had not yet been completed. The case of the State of Indiana vs. Eli W. Steele, assault and battery, with intent to kill and murder, which was set for trial September 17th, was continued, being postponed until October 21st.
