BUPT. HICKEY, HIS TRIAL BRT FOR MONDAY WXEK. Upon the opening of the Criminal Court yeater- day moming, Supt. Hickey, throngh his attornoy, Sidney Smith, appeared and demanded an imme- diate trial on the Indictment pending againat him, State’s-Attorney Mlils called the attention of the Court Lo the fact that the indictment had beon but recently found, and stated that the prosecution was not ready for trlal on acconnt of the absence of a material witness, Mixs Chilson, Mr. Bmith then urged the importance of A speedy trial, and rald that Mr, lickey had been promiscd n trisl yesterday, Ilis client was anxlons for a trinl, for as lie now sinod as S“b“c ofticer_his arm was comparatively paralyzed, and the effect was _ being ’lll lhrflnshlml the pollco force. He had been promired o trial Saturday, bot had given way, but he did not now wani any farther delay, The |m!mruncl of an carly trial was apparent. The public Interest demanded that the Isauc be met at once before a petit Jory, unless tho yrosecation conld give eome reason different from that nlrl.'ld{ lih‘l.'n. ‘The defonse were not standing on technicalities, The wrong number of the house had been given in the fndictment, still the defense wonld walvo that, and were prrgnml toamend it, That could bo dune, as the charge was hut a miademesnor. Here the Court inquired whether the matter of ncru:luc upon a day for trial had been called to his attention, State's-Attorney Mills reptled that it had not, and then went on'to aay that e bnd no personal feellng in the matter. 1lo appreciated Mr. [Tickey's situation, but he conld not ko to trisl this week, as he was not preparod, The Qrand Jury had ree turned an indictment, and the duty devolved upon him to give It a full investigation. "It waa certainly & little early to demand a irial within a weck after the return of the indlctment, ‘The Court eald that the case required speedy at- tentlon, not purticularly on account of Me. ilickey, but on Acconnt of his relations to the publie. \When the Stato’s Attorney nssnred the Conrt that the coee cannot go to trinl, it would not be sattafy. ing the Publl: togoon. If the defendant was in. nocent it would appesr on a fair !rial, but he ought to have as apeedy & trial as possible under the circumatancer. Mr. Simith agaln asked If the date could not be fixed earlier, and again repeated that to-day had been agreed wpon. Mr. 3illa roplied that the agreement was candi- onal, Me. Smith satd that perhaps the case stood abont thia way: Ronmebody had eald that Miss Chilson knew romething avout tho case, ile ventared to that nota living sonl in the county knew what she was to be called about, Mr. Milln replied that Mr. Smith wan mietaken anto the chiaracter of Mitss Cnllson’s evidence.
