evidence may be admitted in criminal
cases, accor ding to a Supreme courl

ty charged with a criminal offense
The point was brought before the
court in the case of James Denmore
and Willie Wallace VS.. State from the
Circuit court of Hancock county. The
appellants were convicted of criminal,
~ assaulting a girl. After the pre-
liminary trial and while the boys were
being taken to jail, one of them
charged the other with getting him
into trouble and a quarrel ensued
which, was overheard by a lawyer
named Gets. The latter was called
on to testify in behalf of the State at
the trial in the Circuit court which
resulted in ten-year sentence for
each prisoner. Appeal to the Supreme
court was taken and the chief point
set up was that the evidence of Gets
was wholly hearsay and therefore not
competent. In a brief opinion read
by Chief Justice Truly the Supreme
court held otherwise.

The Charge Is Grand Larceny-Mrs.
Cartoons Body to Be Exumed
Today.
(By the Associated Press. }


New York July 18.-An indictment
charging grand larceny in the first
degree was returned by the Kings
County grand jury in Brooklyn today
against Frederick E. Carlton, who was
arrested several days ago on COM
plant of Henry j. B. Sshaub, who is
one of the engineers of the United
States submarine boat POrpOise.
1t charges that Criton obtained$17,000
from him by fraudulent real estate
transaction. Carlton is in Jail in de-
fault of $4,000 bail in the case and
District Attorney Clarke, of Kings
county, said today that he would ask
that this amount be increased. His
request would be in measure due to
the fact, he said, that an official inves-
tigation is to be made into the manner
of the death Cartons second wife,
Mary Carlton.
The body of Mrs. Carlton will be
exhumed tomorrow by order of JUS
tice of the Supreme Court and the
stomach and other internal organs
will be removed and subjected to
chemical analysis.
DR.. Charles A. Goldsmith, of Siam
ford Connecticut, today identified
Carlton as man whom he had
known as j. O. Martinez, who. he said,
on July 80, 1900. drugged him and
robbed him of $500 in cash and ST.,
900 worth Of jewelry in a hotel in
Park Row, Manhattan. DIR. Goldsmith
picked out Carlton from among ten
prisoners in the Raymond Street Jail.
Carlton made no comment when DR..
Goldsmith accused him of being the
man who robbed him.

A LYNCHING Is FEARED.
Governor jerks Orders Troops to Lin.
den to Protect Richardson.
nv the Associated Pres

Montgomery, Ala, July lS.-After
receiving a telegram from the au-
thorities in Linden that the lynchlng
of Robert Richardson, negro con-
fined in the Marengo county jail there
was imminent, Governor jerks through,
his private secretary, j. Kirk Jackson,
this afternoon ordered Major V. b. At
kins, in command of the cavalry
squadron of Selma to go al once to the
scene. In less than an hour after
wards the order was issued by tbs
governor, he received a message from
Major Atkins who stated that the
squadron had been gotten together
and had left in a special train for
Linden.
Richardson is one of the two sus-
poets of the murder of DR.. Fosque
near Linden a few xeeks ago. He has
been in the jail at Linden some time,
and the rumor of probable lynch
ing is due to the absence of the Sher-
if and all his deputies from the coun
ty-seat. There was a Jail delivery x
Linden a day or two ago and the as
sumption is that the sheriff and his
force are in pursuit of prisoners who
escaped. This would explain their alb
sence and the anticipation OF an at
tack on the Jail at this time.
The governor it is understood, has
given Major Atkins, who is mayor OF
Selma complete control of the Sltua
ton on his arrival at Linden. rms
will prevent any delay OF the part or
the soldiers upon arrival III Lendon.
