WILL BE RETIRED
NEW TRIAL FOR THOMAS PoOLEY,
SLAYER OF LITTLEJOHNs.
JUDGE CLANCY TO GRANT 1T
Order Will Be Made Next Saturday.
Impossible to Settle Bill of Ex-
eptions-Stenographer's
Notes Are Lost.

Thomas Pooley, who killed his daughter
and his son-in-law, Lydia and Thomas
Littlejohn, about a year and half ago,
and who was convicted Of murder in the
second degree last September, will be
granted a new trial.
Judge Clancy made the announcement
in court this afternoon.
Judge Clancy said he would have
to grant Pooley a new trial. The reason
for this is that the stenographer's notes
of the trial, which was held before Judge
Clancy, are in part lost, and therefore it
is impossible to settle the defendants
bill of exceptions on his motion for
new trial.
Attorneys Not Agreed.
The matter Of the settlement of the
exceptions came up before the judge this
morning and this afternoon, and it de-
veloped that County Attorney Breen and
Attorney Thresher -. the latter repre-
sents Pooley-could not argue on the eX-
ceptions on account of the condition Of
the records. Hence the conclusion
reached by the court.
Judge Clancy said that he would have
Pooley brought before him next Satur-
day morning, and then issue his order.
Mr.. Thresher desired the motion passed
on at once, but the court was too busy
with other matters.
Records Are Lost.
Pooley was tried while Attorney Con-
molly was county attorney, and there
were three transcripts of the testimony
made, one private and one official record
in question and answer form, and one
narrative record.
There was no agreement among the
three records, and Stenographer Wilson's
notes were called for. It was found then
that part of the notes had been lost.
The killing of the Littlejohns by Pooley
created great excitement when it oc-
CURED, the former shooting the two lat
ter on the street.
Pooley has been in the county jail since
n.s trial, awaiting the determination OF
his request for a new trial.

THE WILDMAN ESTATE
Some Exceedingly Technical Questions
involved Therein

The probate court, which handles
the estate of the late Consul General
Rounsenvelle Wildman and that of his
wife, Mrs. Letitia Aldrich-Wildman,
will have some very hair-splitting
questions to decide.
Mrs. Louis Aldrich, mother of Mrs.
Wildman has applied for letters of ad-
ministration on the estate of her
daughter, and the public administrator
has applied for letters of administra-
ton over that of Mrs. Wildman. Ed
win Wildman, brother of the dead
consul, is here, and he is seeking
proofs as to which died f1rst-Mr. or
Mrs. Wildman.
That is the point that may cause
trouble. If Mrs. Wildman died first,
with the children, her husband would
be her heir, while if she survided Mr..
Wildman, no matter how many min
utes, she would be entitled to her
half of the estate and to that of the
community property. In the first case
Edwin Wildman would inherit the
property of both, as his brothers heir,
while in the other, Mrs. Wildman's
relatives would get nearly all of both
estates.
From the testimony of the witnesses
at the investigation Mrs Wildman
was half way down the ships ladder,
near the ships surgeons boat, when
the Rio went down, while one of the
children was with Pilot Jordan at the
top of the ladder. Mr.. Wildman was
elsewhere on the deck.
Which withstood the water longest
is what the court will have to deter
mine. Who knows?
