FISH MUST FACE
new TRIAL SOON
Hoyne Declares Other Indict-
ments Against Insurance
Adjuster to Be Pushed.

Chicago, Dec. 26-The acquittal OF
Joseph Fish, public fire insurance
adjuster. who was freed in a Christ
mas Eve verdict of a charge of arson,
is not to end the states activities in
his case, it was announced yesterday.
! States Attorney Hoyne is planning
to put Fish on trial as soon as pos
sible on other indictments which are
pending against him.
I'VE are not seeking revenge in
going after him again and going after
! him hard as we are going to do,
said Mr.. Hoyne. 1T is simple justice.
Proceedings will be started immedi-
ately on new charges"
Mr.. Hoyne added that the investi-
cation of alleged jury tampering
made during the trial will be carried
to completion.
Assistant States Attorney Frank
: Johnston Jr, who was in charge of
the prosecution, declared that he
would appear before Judge O'Connor
the first part of next week and de-
mand that Mr. Fish be placed on trial
at once.
Fish was indicted. not only for the
Joseph Lewis fire, but for IA
other offenses," Mr.. Johnston said
THE charges embrace arson, burning
to defraud, accessory after the fact
and conspiracy to obstruct justice.
THE states attorneys office has
not decided what charge will be pres
sed next. That will be taken up at
conference either tomorrow or Mon
da.
81 have no comment to make upon
the verdict. We are confident we es-
tablished as complete : case as could
have been made against any defend
ant"
Ben c. Bachrach, of counsel for Mr..
Fish, when informed of the states in
tentionu to proceed at once against
his client on the remaining indict-
ments, said:
81 don't believe that Mr.. Fish will
be placed on trial again. His vindica-
ton was complete and it was as much
a verdict for me as for him, because
of the serious charges made during
the trial against me. All that ! care
to say is that we will be prepared to
meet any moves made by the states !
attorney in the matter"
Edward T. Maloy, 100 Seminary av- |
enue. for eighteen years an employe
of the Chicago title and Trust Com
pany, complained that an injustice !
was done him in connection with the
charges of jury tampering made dur
ing the trial. Mr.. Maloy was one of
the jurors and his name was linked
with that o. Miss Anna Maloy. a
friend of Mrs. Joseph Fish. Miss Nal
oy attended the trial and it was re-
ported that she was Juror Maloy's
cousin.
Mr.. Maloy denies that the girl is
lis cousin or that he knows her.
NO one made signals to me and l
certainly made no signs to anyone"

Billiard cues are made of ash, with
usually lighter wood at the handle.
A good cue should balance if mans
finger be placed under the middle of
it. and as it tapers the butt must be
of lighter wood than the shaft. But
there is a vast amount OF individuality
in cues. The making of leather bill
