REMAINDER WITHOUT BAIL.
Simon Gabert Lodged in Jail to Await His
Trial.


Trial.
Yesterday morning Judge Hood said
he was r. ady to hear the testimony in
the case of SIMON Gabert, in
dicted by. the grand jury for
murder in the first degree
for the killing of w. G. Jeter in De-
cember last, the present trial being on
a writ of habeas corpus, sued out by
! Messrs Furman ~ Caps, defendants
! attornles. "A number of witnesses
were examined as to threats of Jeter,
etc., but Mrs. Dugan, relied upon by
Gaberts lawyers to prove the attack
on Gabert by Jeter with n scantling,
was not present. The new develop
ments made by the state were, that
Jeter at the time lie was
killed had his left hand Grip
led, this having occurred some
months previous; also that his right
hand was at the time badly swollen,
and was wrapped up in such a way
That Jeter had TO have his meat cut for
him at meal time, besides having cot
ton bales cut by some one else, not
being able to use knife. The state
further showed that Jeter was not
armed al the time OF the difficulty, and
was not in the habit of going armed.
The view of the killing sheld by the
state was that the killing was case of
lying in wait. After all the testimony
was in, Judge Hood ordered Gabert TO
TO be taken to Jail to await his trial.
Before doing this Deputy Sheriff
George Weir took Gabert TO his resi-
dence to see his wife and children.
IL is needless TO say the result of the
trial was great surprise to many. AS
il is SAID strong evidence in Gabert's
favor was not produced, it is possible
that another writ will he sued out.
The full facts will surely come out at
the final trial.
