On March 2 last Ingalsbe, while passing the Cowell ranch, calldd Cowell from a field to the road. After some conversa- tion_between them Ingalsbe shot Cowell. The aged millionaire seemed to recover from the wound, and Ingalsbe was tried on a charge of assault with intent to mur- der. He was acquitted on the ground of temporary insanity. After shooting Cowell Ingalsbe turned his gun on Milton Thomas and Charles Kennedy, employes of Cowell, and fired one shot each at them, missing both times. Two charges of assault to mur- der were filed against him for those shots, and he was to have been tried on those charges after the hot weather was over. In the meantime, however, Cowell died and Ingalsbe was again arrested, this time on the charge of murder. This is the case now on trial. MERCED, Oct. 12.—After two days of hard work, during which nearly 200 tales- men were examined, a jury was floally secured to-night to try Leigh Ingalsbe on the charge of murdering Henry Coweil.
