Homaday. The petition was filed by the firm of Part & Parr of Leb anon, and Charles L. Tindall, Greenfield, attorneys for Mrs. Sim mons. Indiana statutes require dismis sal of indictments through failure to try them during three consecu tive terms of court. The state, should it obtain new evidence, could reopen the case, but only after new grand jury in dictments had been voted. The prosecution made no effort to forestall the quashing of the charges. Mrs. Simmons was released on a SIO,OOO bond Nov. 7, 1931, after a six-weeks' trial on the charge of poisoning her daughter, Alice Jean, at a family reunion picnic in Leb- anon. The jury failed to agree. The final ballot was eight to four for acquittal. The state charged her with the death of two children and poisoning of five other persons.
