IS INVOLVED IN
THIS CASE
Editors of the Manila
Freedom
BEFORE SUPREME COURT

Washington, D. c., April 21.-The
right of trial by jury and the right
of claiming jeopardy when once ac-
quilted by u Philippine court were in
volvcd in the cases of Fred L. Darr
and f. +. OBrien, proprietors and
editor of the Manila Freedom; Thom-
as e, Kepner, a Manila attorney and
Secundino Mendezona Y. Mendezona,
a native. argued as one before the
supreme court today. The two cases
were tried without jury under the
criminal code in the Philippines
on the charge Of embezzlement and
the men acquitted On an appeal by
the government, the court OF last re-
sort declared them guilty and SEN
fenced them to Imprisonment, The
newspapermen were accused OF libel
ling q Philippine citizen, demanded a
jury trial, were refused found guilty
and given a fine OF $4,000 and SEN
fenced to six months imprisonment.
The supreme court of the Philippines
affirmed the judgment
The cases come to the United States
supreme court on an error. The coun-
sci for the appellants claimed that
trial by jury is required under the
constitution and that an appeal by the
prosecution in a criminal case puts
defendant twice in jeopardy. Solicitor
General Hoyle contended that the jury
system had not been introduced in the
Philippines and that the right of ap-
peal existed under the Spanish laws
and has not been superseded.
