THE M’COY CASES

At Hammond Not Likely to Come to Trial Until Next Term of the Superior Court. Ex-Prosecuting Attorney John _ B. Peterson of Crown Point has been engaged by Judge Hanley to prosecute the criminal cases against the McCoys now pending in. the Lake Superior court at Hammond. We are told that the usual motions on the indictments, will be heard at the present term of court there, but there is no probability of their being tried this term. Should the indictments be held bad, a grand jury will be called at the February term of court in this county and new indictments returned. No one has yet been employed to assist in the caSes venued to White county, and they, also, will not come up until the next term of court there.
