They had been further informed that
after his appointment Mr.. Hay had held
a three-hours conference with John Hays

against the Transvaal government, and
now an active campaigner against the

Secretary Reltz took the assistant secre.

TO which he is entitled as American consul
With the impression which he must have

This was the status of affairs when Da
Wis took up young Hays case He per
suaded Secretary Reltz to receive him,
partly because he wished to avoid an,

FAR=REACHING DECISION
The Federal Supreme Court Reversed Murder Case
Taken Up from Texas.

the trial court on the ground that
evidence had been offered by defendant
on the point raised. Justice Gray OF
the United States supreme court today
holds that this was false assumption,
as such evidence had only been ten
dered. He says that by this tender
Carter preserved his rights under the
constitution. therefore the decision
was reversed and the case remanded.
The entire supreme bcnch assents and
agrees with Justice Gray
The opinion is expressed here by
eminent iurists that this will have
far reaching effect and means the
successful appeal of every negro found
guilty Of crime by either State or
Federal courts where, members OF their
own race are not included OH both the
grand and petit juries. Henceforth. in
order to make convictions against ne
grees stick, members of that race must
be included In all panels of grand and
petit jurles.
