Special TO the Herald,
Mckinney, July Ion Saturday night
the Jury returned verdict of not guilty in
the case of the state against Thomas Spots
wood, charged with completely in the Allen
train robbery with Sam Bass gang, some two
years ago. There were four or five witnesses
for the state who swore positively that he was
in Allen the day the robbery occurred, and
there were large number of witnesses
for the defense who swore equally
as positively that he could not have been
the party, because he was seen in Denton
county the same day and night, SO that il
would have been physically impossible for
him TO have been at both places the same
day. The most charitable view to take OF
the matter is that the witnesses on one side
are mistaken, as both sets
of witnesses appeared equally honest.
A. L. Jones, our city marshal, is quite sick
with brain fever.
Tho weather is extremely hot, and yegeta-
ton shows signs of willing.
District court is now in progress. The
case against Brinler, for murder, is set for
Thursday. The one against Frost, on a
similar charge, ia set for next week.
