In addition to the testimony of this viii

Should the Jury be of opinion that the
prisoner is guilty of the offence charged
against him as capital, according 10 The
explanation OF the law given by the court,
they may find him generally guilty. If
they should think him guilty of assisting
only IN simple robbery of The mail or
that the life of the mail carrier was not in
jeopardy, according 10 the meaning of
that word as given by the court, then
they will find him guilty ON the Sd or 4tii

FURTHER PROCEEDINGS.
After the conviction in this case the prison
err counsel moved the Court 10 arrest the
Judgment, Oh the ground, among others, of an
error III the caption of the Indictment which
states the Court of the United States for the
pennsylvania District, whereas, as was argu-
ed, since the passage of the late Act of Con.
gress dated The 10th of April, 1918, for dividing
the State of Pennsylvania, into two judicial
Districts, there is no District of Pennsylvania
but Eastern and Western Districts of Penn
sylvania. The Court overruled this obi eciion,
but determined that as the offence charged did
not appear by tie Indictment to have been
committed in the Eastern District of Penn
s,lvania, there Was no judicial evidence of the
Perpetraiion of the offence within the jnrisdic-
tion OF the Circuit Court for the Eastern Dis
t.ict, and consequently that, for this reason,
the Judgment must be arrested. The prisoner
was then re committed for further prosecution.
