From the evidence introduced on tho trial
Of the co.defendant of this defendant, it
appeared that there was less evidence
tending to inculpate this defendant than
there was to inculpate the party who
was tried, C. G. Bohannon, who, having
been duly acquitted, it would be futile
to proceed to the trial Of Anselmi, and
therefore upon the ground Of insufficient
evidence to convict, / (the District At
