LANSING, March f6.--The time of the
circuit court at it's session Thursday
morning was occupied with the rear
ranging of the calendar. After the
criminal cases of local interest were
disposed of Judge Person asked what
indicted man the counsel would like to
try this term. He announced that the
Ellis case would not be taken up, and
as it would likely be impossible to try
more than one, or at most two of the
cases, to select the most convenient
cases.
Prosecuting Attorney Gardner said
the people would like to take up the
case of Secretary Jochim on the charge
of falsely and feloniously making a
public record with intent to injure and
defraud; then the case of Potter and
Warren, to be followed if possible by
the case of Ellis and May. When asked
if he could be ready for trial on Mon
day, April 0. Attorney Day said he sup
posed so, and the court determined it
should be tried on that date.
