a notice supplementary to that sent out
by the District Attorney, requiring all
claimants and lessees of property along
the river front within the District to
place on record the amount of their
claims, as well as full description of the
property. The purpose of reopening the
cases at this time. as has heretofore been
stated. is to determine the value of the

IN THE DISTRICT COURTS
Speculation on the Decision in the
Latney Larceny Case.
A Question Raised as to a Flaw in
tie ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Anderson
Mny Be Assigned to Criminal Court
No. I-Davis Embexziement Trial.

The Court of Appeals for the District,
after a recess of several weeks. meets
tomorrow morning. and it is expected that
opiuions will be handed down in several
important criminal cases. Among these
are decisions in the appeals of Boyd wal
lace, eolored, convicted of murder, ana
Julius Latney, also coiored, convicted of
a second offence of petit larceny
A great deal Of interest has been taken
in tn. latter case because of the grounds
upon which the appeal from the~triai
court are based. In this case it Is con-
tended by Latney, through his counsel,
Levi David. that the conviction in the
Supreme Court of the District is void be-
cause the information upon which the de-
PENDANT was arrested was nullity in the
eye of the law, for the reason that it was
not sworn to by a proper officer. On this
question there is a difference of opinion
among some OF the members of the
bench of the Supreme Court of the Dis
trict. In several instances wherein per-
sons were arrested under circumstances
similar to those under which Latney was
taken into custody and sentenced in the
Police Court to Imprisonment in the Dis
trict iail or the workhouse, the prisoners
have been released on habeas corpus pro-
ceetiings on the ground that the informa-
ton was defective When Latney was
called to trial, however, the contention
that the information was defective was
overruled and he was convicted. There
are several other cases Of similar ma
ture on appeal before the Court of APP
meals for decision. In the other cases,
however. the appeals were taken by the
Government.
In the event that the Court of Appeals
grants the appeal in the Latney case. 1t
will be equivalent to denying the appeal
of the Government in the other cases re-
ferred to. If this is done it is said there
are a large number of persons now IN the
penitentiary. convicted under circum-
stances similar TO Latney, who will en-
deayor to secure their release through
habeas corpus proceedings. In the hope
that the Court of Appeals will grant Lat
ney $ appeal, it is said that several prls-
oners have already engaged Counsel
