Last OF Cases Against Famous
Prisoner Results in Giving
Freedom
THREE TIMES BEFORE COURT
Last Trial Was on Charge of Arson
in Burning Webster City Felt Shoe
Factory - Jury Out Only a Few
Hours-state Failed to Make Good
Case.
Special to Times-Republican.

Special to Times-Republican.
Clarion, March 21--George Mackown,
one of the most famous prisoners ever
tried in the courts of Iowa, is now a
free man. His liberty was placed in
jeopardy three times within the past
two years, and he now has secured ac-
quittal and therefore legal generation
on every charge against him.
The trial in the district court here
during the past week is the second
under the Indictment charging arson,
the state attempting to show that he
set fire to the 100000 felt shoe fac
tory at Webster City for the purpose
of covering up the embezzlement Of a
large sum OF company funds.
The case was closed at 5 o'clock last
evening, after arguments lasting a day
and half. Judge Wright at once in
structed the jury, the instructions be-
ing quite lengthy but considered fair
to both sides. The jury retired. and
at 10 o'clock last night agreed upon
verdict of not guilty. On the first bal
lot the jury stood II to l in favor
of a verdict for defendant, and it re-
CURED little time to bring the twelfth
juror into line with the idea of the ma
jority.
The Several Trials.
Mackown, who was manager of the
felt shoe factory up to within a short
time before the plant was completely
destroyed by fire. and who left Web
ster City Immediately afterward. was
arrested after several months and ta-
ken to Webster City, where he was in
dicted for both emhezzlement and ar
son. The plant was owned by local
capitalists of Webster City. who lost
heavily thru the acknowledgment of
the concern and thru the following
loss by fire. While Mackown was in
Webster City he lived high and was
believed to be spending more money
than his salary would justify. This
directed suspicion towards him.
He was first tried on the arson
charge at Webster City, the jury re-
turning a verdict of guilty. The YER
OlSl was SCI dS1uc NY LIE COuIl. w ueIl
the case on the ENLIGHTENMENT charge
was begun, Mackown secured a change
of venue to Fort Dodge, on the plea
that the people of Hamilton county
were prejudiced. This trial resulted
in acquittal, and left the state with
out a motive on the arson charge. The
second trial on this charge was taken
to Wright county. and this time re-
suited in the acquittal of defendant,
Mackown, who has been in Jail all
this time, was released today He has
not as yet announced his plans for the
future.
The case of the state on the arson
charge was lamentably weak after
Mackown secured a verdict of acquital
upon the embezzlement charge, which
crime constituted the states chief mo-
tive for arson. The verdict was not a,
all unexpected. The case just finished
the gamut of proceedings
against this famous prisoner, he having
undergone the strain of the three trials
in five months.
