Judge 2. W: Mabry of the City Court of Selma today decreed that bali in the penalty of n.2oo should be granted to Wtn s. Briggs. charged with the murder of Jchn scuiiy. but Hon. W. B.. Craig acting as solicitor gave notice of appeal and pending the appeal Briggs will have to remain in jail.
 The fixing of bond today was the issue of Q petition of Briggs for writ of habeas corpus in ordeg that the court might allow him baM Briggs was arrested early in January on a warrant charging him with the murder of John Scully and
 with Pearl Scott, Clay Hillman and Flor
 encs Lsftwich was indicted by the grand jury a few weeks ago. The application
 for writ of habeas corpus was made two
 weeks ago but from time to time was continued.
 It was set up in the petition that the petitioner was i'll and that incarceration might render his illness fatal. and the proof was not evident nor the presump-
 ton great that he was guilty of the
 crime with which he was charged. Judge Mabry granted the prayer of the petition and after hearing the testimony of John Briggs to the effect that his brother. the petitioner, was devoid of property he fixed the bond at N.2Oo. Mir. Craig who Is acting as solicitor in place of Hon. ". W. Quariss gave notice of appeal to the Supreme Court of Alabama and pending the hearing of the appeal the decree of Judge Mabry is ineffective.
