/ the defense. Shanor was freed on the
obstructing Justice charge in the local
court, motions to quash failed and
I Shanor was convicted on the charge OF
adultery and Mrs Mailer of perjury
and assisting in an abortion. Motions
! for new trials were refused, ana aIter
! the defendants had been sentenced 10
| the penitentiary for one year IN each
case, arrests of Judgment were secured
the cases appealed to the superior
Court and after argument the superior
Court reversed the lower court on
| technicalities. and new trials were
awarded When Shanor first employed
Ralston he paid him $50, and later gave
him 300 TO divide with Mr.. McQuistion.
A. T. Scott was also in the case as
private attorney for Mrs. Mailer, but 1t
did not appear whether he had ever
been paid anything by Shanor Shanor
aIsu paid the printing bill. $500, and the
costs of appeal. Messrs Ralston and
McQuistion claimed that as soon as
Shanor saw in the newspapers that the
local court had been reversed and new
trials awarded, instead of coming to his
ATTORNEYS and making arrangements
for the future, he avoided them and at
once went to the Butler Savings q
Trust Co. where he had $1,000 on de-
posit to secure his bail, and which they
claimed it had been agreed among them
should be used to finish paying his at
torneys in case they secured freedom
lor him and Mrs Mailer, and tried to
draw out the money. This was stopped
by an attachment, and the suit for
$1,000 fees was then entered. Attorneys
Forquer and Wilson tried the case Tor
the plaintiffs and Mcdowell for the de-
fendant. Attorneys Bowser, Williams,
Goucher Scott and Moore stated on the
witness stand that considering the
amount of work done and results ac-
complished, $500 was a reasonable Zee
in each case, making the total $1,000.
The defense tried to show that lawyers
could be secured to do the same for
SlO0 and that Messrs McQuistion and
Ralston offered to do it for nothing
Mrs Mailer swore on the stand that the
plaintiffs took no part in her trials. In
the arguments to the jury the council
for the defense stated he was defending
an honest man from conspirators and
malefactors The jury returned
verdict of $500 for the plaintiffs.
The Supreme Court met in Pittsburg,
with five members on the Bench. Of
the other members one is sick and the
Otner was detained.
P.B. Fennell, John L. Dipner and
Samuel Milligar have been appointed
