Tho Case of Blake, santce and ,Tc Phcrson.
Mr.. SMITH, the counsel for the prisoners
who were found guilty yesterday of the bur
glary at the Ten Mile House, applied this
morning on behalf of Santee for a new trial
on the ground ofnewly discovered evidence,
and also that the verdict against him was
contrary to the evidence adduced on The tri-
al. Judge HUBBELL in reply to the appica-
ton said that as regards SANTEE, he himself
was not satisfied with the verdict, and he
thought if the facts now stated were true,
that for the purposes of justice, new trial
ought to be granted. He further minated
to counsel and to Santee's father, who was
present, that if the latter could procure an
affidavit to be made by some respectable
person embracing the new evidence. he
would have the matter open for two weeks
ito give him an opportunity of presenting
the same to the Mlwaukee Meas.
