Should this report prove authentic it

was derived from the Sunday and mid

The change in the management of the

CONTEXT
OF TRUE BILLS
Minute History of Grand
Jury Findings in Lake
Circuit Court.

Crown Point, Ind. March 22.-The
nolle pressing of the charge against
Mike Yokonovich Dog Faced
Charley, is one of the steps in the
prosecution of the grand jury cases
against Mayor Thomas Knots, Chief
of Police Joseph Martin and others.
For fear the general public NAV
get the impression that the action CT
the prosecutor is preliminary to the
dismissal of the cases against Knots
and Martin the following explanation
is given.
The arrest OF Dog Faced Charley
was the result of the most bitter
municipal and state election that was
ever held in Northern Indiana. on the
complaint OF Fred Friedley, Yokono-
vich was arrested and charged with
unlawfully, felonfously, purposely and
with premeditated malice attempt to
commit violent injury to the person
of Thomas Grant by attempting TO
shoot him.
Yokonoyfcn was then arrested and
taken before Judge Harry Nicholson
OF Crown Point where he waived ar
raignment and pleaded not guilty The
case was then submitted to trial and
the defendant was bound over TO the
Lake Superior Court under $4,000
bonds Mayor Knots went on the
bond.
MIKE LATER INDICTED.
Later the matter was taken up be-
fore the grand jury and an Indictment
was returned against Yokonovich and
he was placed under $4,000 bond
charged with conspiracy to murder
Sheriff Thomas Grant.
Following the indictment by the
grand jury it was agreed that the case
in the Lake Superior court should be
dropped. This action was taken by
Prosecuting Attorney Greenwald yes
terday.
This action aroused great deal OF
comment until 1t became known thai
1t did not relieve Dog Faced Charley
of the responsibility for the crime he
IL alleged to have committee on that
memorable election day.
The dismissal of the case against
Yokonovich renews the interest in the
Indictment of Mayor Knots, Joseph
Martin and a number of others. 1t has
now become known what are the con-
tents of these indictments.
Mayor Knots and Joseph Martin are
indicted on six counts One of these
counts charges the mayor with being
a participant in a conspiracy to murdel
Sheriff Thomas Grant.
