Important Murder-Trial Decision o

Important Murder-Trial Decision of
the Supreme Court.
The Supreme Court yesterday granted
new trial to Alexander Thompson, who
killed William Spray in Amador County
in May, 1890, and was convicted of MUIR
der in the first degree. Thompson adj
mitted killing Spray, but contended that
he did so in self-detense.
In support of this assertion he wished
to prove TO the court that for some time
previous Spray had been in vindictive
frame of mind toward him. But the
Judge refused to let in any evidence to
show Sprays frame of mind toward the
defendant.
The Supreme Court finds that ruling
sufficient to order a reversal of the iudg-
ment and to give Thompson a new trial.
