further interchange of views pre-
paratory to the formulating of pro-

PERRY HELD ON
SERIOUS charge
FORMER CHICAGO BANK PREsI-
DENT Is INDICTED FOR
ARSON.
PROSPECTS FOR EARLY
TRIAL OF THE CASE
Assistant States Attorney Declares
Evidence That He Set Fire to Heg-
ewisch Car Shops Is Circumstan-
tial But Convincing.

Chicago, Dec. 24.-Two indictments
for arson were returned against Isaac
N. Perry, former president of the Ma
tional Bank of North America, by the
grand jury In Judge Kersten's court
Friday. One Indictment charged arson
and the other arson with intent to de-
fraud AZ insurance companies out Of
$4,000. There were two counts in each
indictment, the counts differing only in
technical wording. The bond was fixed
ut $4,000 in each indictment. A capias
for the arrest was issued by Judge Ker-
stem Immediately after the return had
been made and was placed in the hands
Of Deputy Sheriff Steiner for service.
The prospects are that the celebrated
case will go to early trial. Mr.. Forrest,
attorney for Mr.. Perry. said Friday that
he would try to arrange for trial at a.
early date as his other engagements
viii permit. Assistant States Attorney
Lindley, who appeared as the states
representative in the preliminary hear
ing Of the case, which resulted in Mr..
Persy's discharge in Justice Fosters
court in South Chicago. said that the
case probably would be set for trial at
the January term of court.
Evidence Said to Be Conclusive.
Assistant States Attorney Lindley,
Fire Attorney Johnson, and Hajine r.
Pearson, who conducted the prosecution
In Justice Fosters court, are sanguine
Of securing conviction in the criminal
court 1.-THE evidence" said Mr.. Lind
10y, proves conclusively the fire at
the Hegewisch plant of the Chicago Car
and Locomotive company, October 8.
was of incendiary origin. This is es-
tsblished by the discovery Of oil-soaked
carbon bricks and slow-hurning fuses.
The evidence against Mr.. Perry is cir
cumstantial, but convincing. 1t proves
Mr.. Perry to be man with a possible
motive for the crime, with an opportu-
mtg Of committing it and with the abil-
ity TO commit it. In purely circum-
stantial case 1t usually Is necessary to
establish more than this. Mr.. Perry has
11SS 200 or his own money invested in
the plant His bank had advanced this
money to F. NJ. Pease, who formerly
owned the works. When Mr.. Perry
bought the plant he assumed the debt.
II the plant burned. the insurance went
10 him. At the same time Pease's debt
was Mquidated. So the fire must have
benefited either MT. Perry or Mr.. Pease.
H. Fsase was in Philsdelphia. MT.
Perry Was on the grounds the after
noon Of the IRE. He had 80 minutes in
| which 10 set the fuses and touch them
OF. He had only 1900 feet to travs'
from building to building. He could
have travelled this distance in eight min.
utss. The doors Of the buildings were
all unlocked. So the ability, opportu.
nifty au0motiye areall clearly set forth
