Tom Mooney on the charge of murder
in connection with the preparedness

the acquittal of his wife, Mrs. Rena
Mooney, of a similar charge late yes

Attorney Maxwell McNutt, chief de-

trial just closed, made this statement
today, declaring that the failure Of
the states case had demonstrated the
futility of further effort to connect
Mooney with the outrage which killed
ten persons and injured forty on July
%, 1916.
Mrs. Mooney, overjoyed with the
verdict which removes from her
name the stigma of a murder charge,
made preparations today to leave the
Jail which she has occupied for a year,
