FOCCY DEAN TO
Get new TRIAL
Jury Is Discharged After
Deadlock; New Hearing
in November.

Edward (Foggy) Dean, accused as
trigger man" in the submachine
gun murder of Police Sergeant Les
ter Jones, must face another trial in
November. Prosecutor Herbert E.
Wilson announced today.
An exhausted jury, hopeleSsly
deadlocked after more than thirty
hours elaboration, filed into Marion
criminal court late yesterday to be
discharged by Special Judge Clyde
Jones and end Deans three-week
trial on first-degree murder charge.
Dean was returned to the county
Jail to await the new trial.
Failure of the jury to reach ver-
dict marked the second disagree
ment in the trials arising from the
murder of Sergeant Jones during a
robbery of the Peoples Motor Coach
Company garage here in February,
1888.
Willie Mason, now a crippled
fugitive, was tried at NobleSville
last year and the jury there dis
agreed. Several months later,
Mason sawed his way out of the
county Jail. He is still fugitive.
Ernest (Red Giberson, alleged
member of the bandit gang, is in
Marion county Jail awaiting trial.
Disagreement as to the inter
probation OF the courts instructions
to the jury is said to have made it
impossible to reach verdict in the
Dean ease. At one time. it was re-
ported, the jury stood eight to four
for conviction. When the jury was
discharged, however. it was reliably
reported that six members stood for
acquittal.

Regulated Confessions

They put on their bathing suits in

began swimming. When she swan

ately, gave three confessions. In
court he repudiated them all, claim
ing that Miss McKechnie died OF

The trial began last Monday. The

Childhood Sweethearts

Edwards and Miss McKechnie
were childhood sweethearts." She
grew up to become a telephone oper-
ator, but he was more ambitious,
obtained part Of college education,
and had his eye on the ministry.
Miss McKechnie was his love until
he met Miss Grain, of East Aurora,
N. Y, cultured, skilled in music and
literature, at college. Then his love
for Miss McKechnie began to dim.
Last March Miss Grain and Ed
wards we're meeting periodically for
"trysts." Between trysts, Edwards
continued his companionship with
Miss McKechnie. In his own story
from the witness stand, he said it
was natural for man to seek COM
partnership in the "other sex"
Then last July, Miss McKechnie
informed him that she would be-
come mother within five months.
Edwards told her they would elope
Aug. l. But the night of July 30,
he took her swimming at Harvey's
lake in the mountains near Ed
wardsville.

through most of the night.
They examined the dress Miss
McKechnie had made to wear
at her wedding, believing
Edwards was about to put the
seal of legality upon their af-
fair. The 172 letters Edwards
wrote his second sweetheart, Miss
Margaret Grain, were sent into the
juryroom where, presumably, they
were read carefully.
At $50 a. m. Judge w. A. Valen-
tine reconvened court to receive the
verdict. The clerk didn't need ask
for it; it was evident in the faces
of twelve men.
Fatal Words Read
Edwards blanched when the fatal
words were read-"guilty-death."
His lips contracted into thin, white
line. He whispered to his counsel.
The jury was polled. Each man
in firm voice responded: Guilty
in the first degree-death."
Judge Valentine thanked the jury
and adjourned court.
Edwards, 81 years old and even
younger in appearance, produced a
cigaret and lighted it with a trem-
bling hand. His face was express
sionless as photographers exploded
their flash bulbs. He put out his
left hand for the manacles that
chained him to a deputy sheriff, and
almost ran out of the room. He
was taken to "murderers' row" OF
county prison.
Parents All Absent
Neither Edwards parents nor the
parents of the murdered girl were
in court. Once close friends, they
had attended all previous sessions
without so much as glancing at one
another. They are next door neigh
borS and leading citizens of the
nearby mining community Of Ed
Wardsville.
Judge Valentine will formally
sentence Edwards to the electric
chair after defense counsel has had
an opportunity to file notice of ap-
peal. Under Pennsylvania law the
jury fixes both the guilt and the
punishment in capital cases.
Thomas E. Lewis, the prosecutor,
said he thought the verdict very
proper" Defense counsel would not
comment.

Cleanliness. simplicity, irreproach-

demanded from every last storm
trooper.
The first five commandments de-
mand the strictest obedience from
storm troop leaders and specify that
the luxurious staff headquarters in
Berlin is to be closed Immediately,
since it has become known that up to
10000 marks monthly has been
squandered for dinners, etc"
Hitler forbade all party depart
ments from arranging so-called fes-
tival banquets, excepting those given
for state reasons by the Reich Presi-
dent and the foreign minister.
The fifth commandment forbids
storm troop leaders from making
costly inspection trips.
The sixth paragraph says storm
troop leaders who get drunk in public
are unworthy to be leaders of their
people"
The seventh commandment says. Il
demand from all leaders they shall
keep the storm troops as a clean in

storm troops without fear of moral
danger. want to see men as storm
troop leaders. and not ridiculous

BERLIN, June 30.-Victor Lutte,

mander of the NaZi storm troops after
the deposition Of Ernst Roehm. is 43
years old and soldier by inclination.
He enlisted as a private in the i'm
perial army in 1912, had a good
record during the World War for
audacity and resourcefulneSs, and left
the service minus one eye.
Lutte joined the Nazi party soon
after its inception. He was active in
the Ruhr during the French occu-
patton in 1923, and was named Nazi
chief of that district.
Subsequently Lutte was appointed
chief of the northern division, with
headquarters at Hanover.
His final reward came when Hitler
took power. The new storm troop
chieftain was then made police presi-
dent of Hanover, and afterward
provincial governor and counselor
of state.
