RELEASED ON TECHNICALITIEs.
I Two prisoners defended by F. M.
Brooks were released yesterday by
Judge Gear upon a directed verdict,
of fachnfo11ittoS
In the case of Wing Sing, who was
charged with needless driving and sem
fenced to pay fine of ten dollars by
Judge Wilcox, the jury was directed to
bring a verdict of acquittal because
of the insufficiency of the complaint fill
ed in the District Court. The complaint
failed to specify that the defendants
needless driving was dangerous to the
life and safety of another" and this
omission Judge Gear held to be suffi-
cient to set aside Judge Wilcox's SEN
tence.
In the case of Nishimoto fined $50 by
Judge Wilcox for selling watered milk
the jury was directed to acquit be-
cause of definition of the Century die
tionary that milk is from eighty to
ninety per cent of liquid. Food Com
missioner Shorey testified that the milk
showed $3.50 liquid and but 10.1 of
solids, and that ten per cent Of water
had been added. When the Century
dictionary was introduced, Shorey stat
ed that as a general proposition, milk
might bs. from eighty 70 ninety per cent
liquid but he had never seen milk of
lower standard than S8.5 and had test
ed a good deal of the tactical fluid.
Judge Gear granted Brooks motion for
a directed verdict of acquittal.
Under the courts ruling it will be al
most impossible to secure further con-
victions for the sale of adulterated milk,
as a ninety per cent liquid test would
allow lee way for considerable added
water.
