DEFENDANTS HARD LUCK.

Wov1Ams& Let Han, :" -.

It is not unusual for persons In
dicted for crime to plead guilty, but
very seldom does It happen that .
prisoner admits that he has bsen
rightfully accused IL compelled to
enter a plea Of not guilty. Such IN
incident occurred in Washington r.
Gently.
It was desired to make q test case
in order to secure q ruling from the
appellate court ON . hmotty legal
proposition. A certain colored indi-
vidual who was in the tolls was 10
lected to furnish framework for tho
issue. he was escorted into court
for arraignment. Prior to that for
mality, however, the prosecuting Of
heer took the precaution TO remark:
"Of course, you are going to plead
not guilty" Such a plea was essen
tial in order to take the matter be-
fore the higher court.
The response was q surprise and
somewhat disconcerting, for the at-
torneys and the court were anxious
to go ahead with the test proceed
ing. The prisoner declered: Use
guilty, an I wants to be sentenced
right here an now" This disar-
ranged the programme very deeid-
edly.
It required the combined persua-
sive efforts of the prosecuting officer,
and the counsel assigned to repre-
sent the defendant. says the WASH
ington Star, to induce the latter to
consent to plead not guilty. Az he
was led from the courtroom he
shook his head dubiously and muir
mured: II didn't want to do ii,
cause Use guilty, all right. Don't
