was a new trial. The case was that of
Rito Ramirez; convicted Of robbery aG
the March term, 1904 and sentenced TO
five years in the territorial prison.
The alleged robbery was committed on
John Murray, the amount, 50. The
contention of defendants attorney was
sustained. The opinion and decision Is
summed up in the concluding para
graph, as follows:
''There being 10 evidence to sustain
the verdict or the Judgment based
thereon, the judgment of the lower
court is reversed and the defendant dis
charged"
1t being the first case of the kind
within the knowledge of the prison
authorities they were q little skeptical

release came en- Sunday. the 7th5 and
he was given his freedom the next day,
having served liUGle over year for a
crime which he did not commit.

over the result as the released prisoner,
