Pietzel, was today filed in the quarter session court The document was presented by Lawyers Samuel P. Ro- tan and w. A. Shoemaker and the court will hear argument on Monday next. Eff teen reasons why a new trial should be granted are given. the first three alleging that the verdict is against the evidence. The fourth asserts that new material has been discovered since the trial and the fifth declares that ''the district attorney in his opening speech made statements which were not proven and which related to other crimes which could not be a part of the evidence, and they were of such terrible nature that their effect upon the jurors was of necessity so adverse to the defendant that it was impossible for them to decide purely upon the evidence in the case"
 It is urged that the district attorney in his closing address mentioned the death of the children and the finding of their dead bodies, and it is claimed that the court erred in several particulars specifed.
