Case Is Delayed Until
Tuesday: Await Drawing
of New Charge.

Discovery Of errors in the indict-
ment charging Rupert Mcdonald of
Chicago with the murder OF Wilkin-
son Haag, young Indianapolis drug
gist, May is, 1926, today brought
about postponement of the GRIM
inal court trial until Tuesday.
Defense Attorney Eph Inman had
been questioning prospective jurors
for two hours this morning before.
Prosecutor Judson L. Stark learned
that the second count OF the IN
dictment charged Mcdonald with
an attempt to steal a pocketbook
from Haag before he was shot. Nc
Donald and Lawrence Ghere, in
dicted with him on a similar charge,
demanded a large diamond ring
worn by Haag, and not a purse, ac-
cording to the states evidence.
Police officers in the case went be-
fore the grand jury Immediately
after Inman and Stark agreed on
the return of a new Indictment. This
will be returned this afternoon and
che trial will be, resumed Tuesday.
Collins instructed talesmen to re-
port again Tuesday,
Haag was shot while he and a
woman companion, now dead, we're
lunching in the Green Mill barbecue,
on East Thirty eighth street. near
keystone avenue. The state al
legss that the shooting occurred
after Ghere and Mcdonald had
planned TO rob Haag.
The faulty indictment was re-
turned July 20, 1928, and was the
second one in the case. The f1rSt
indictment, returned October, 1926,
did not name Mcdonald and the
second was returned to cover this
discrepancy.
Ghere's trial is set for March
and he probably will be tried In
Shelbyville.

VINCENNES, Ind, Feb. 25.-Ten
thousand persons are here today as
the city celebrates the capture $50
years ago of FIT. Sackville by George
Rogers Clark. The weather is much
like that Of the day on which the
capture was made.
At 1890 p. m. President Coolidge
touched a telegraph key in Wash
ington which in turn set off a bomb
here on the site of a proposed Clark
memorial. The bomb was set to
raze an elevator on the site, but the
explosion was of only firecracker
force. Then an effort was made to
tear down the building with trac-
tors. It failed. Mayor Claude Gregg
had the structure set afire, but the
flames made little progress, due to
dampness.
Governor Harry G. Leslie and
party arrived by special train short
ly after IL. Governor Elem Samp-
son of Kentucky was expected late
in the afternoon by plane. Gov
ernor Leslie delivered the dedica-
tory address for the memorial site.

Decision.
BIZ United Press

Ety United Press
WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-While
the federal radio commission was
fighting for it's life in congress to-
day, the district court of appeals
handed down a decision in the case
of station WGY, Schenectady, N. Y,
threatening to shear the commission
of its regulating power.
The court ordered the commission
20 renew the license of WGY, giant
station of the General Electric
Company, to broadcast on 100
kilocycle channel. The commission
had ordered WGY to divide time
with a California station operated
by the same company, and an ap-
peal was taken.
Rehearipg Asked
1t was pointed out at the commits
sion offices that if that body did
not have the authority to regulate
WGY then it could not legally regu-
late other stations and q new law
aimed at regulation Of the ether
would have to be made by congress.
A bill extending the life OF the
radio commission for one year has
been passed by the house and was
to be brought up for action In the
senate today.
A repetition of the confusion that
followed a court decision in 1926
holding that the department OF
commerce under the marine law had
no power to regulate the air, was
forecast at the commission offices
if the decision is allowed to stand.
1t was pointed out that when the
federal radio commission was in
augurated March 15, 1927, there
we're 733 broadcoasters. The COM
mission has eliminated many and
otherwise settled chaotic conditions
In the air, one official said.
The commission Immediately will
petition the court of appeals for a
rehearing, Louis G.. Caldwell, gen
eral counsel, said.
IF the petition is denied We VII
then go to the supreme court for a
writ of certiorari,' he said. THE
news of the decision takes me COM
pletely by surprise"
