COURT SAYS CASE
IS ON DOCKET
Interesting Arguments ReIa-
tive u Charges Pending
AeainSt'A. |. Tyre

One Of the most interesting and inn
portant arguments that has been heard
before the County Courts recently was
brought TO the attention of the bench
yesterday by a revival Of the case Of
the state VS.. Abram L. Tyre, who is
under indictment for alleged compile
ity in the Shellpot election frauds.
At the November term of Court OF
General Sessions Tyre was tried on
the above named charge and the jury
failed to reach an agreement His coun-
sci was ]. Frank Ball, who opposed
every step upon the part of the state,
represented by Attorney General Rob-
ert II. Richards and Deputy Attorney
General Daniel o. Hastings, the result
being that after hours Of dellberation
the jurors announced that IL was i'm
possible TO render a verdict The case
at that point was apparently dropped
by the state, although no official an
nouncement to this effect was made
from the Attorney Generals office.
In considering cases TO be tried at
this term Mr.. Richards on Monday an
nounced that the case of the State VS..
Abram l. Tyre would be tried on Mon
day. February H. Mr.. Ball, who was
present at the time. at once expressed
surprise at such an announcement.
stating TO the court that he was under
the impression that the case had been
dropped by the prosecution. Mr.. Ball
gave as his reason for such an asser-
ton that inasmuch as no continuance
had been asked for by either side and
that no renewal OF bond had been de-
manded on the part Of the State the
presumption on his part was that the
matter would not be taken up again.
Was Not Prepared.
In view Of these facts he said that
he was utterly unprepared for trial and
could not possibly be ready at the time
mentioned.
Mr.. Richards contended on the other
hand that as the case was not disposed
Of at the last term that it must neces-
sarily so over until the present term
He also asked that capias forthwith
be issued causing Abram L. Tyre to ap-
pear before the court on the following
day yesterday.
Alr Bah objected 70 this mode OF
procedure and said that IL such a cap
las was issued by the court he would
argue the legality Of it. Tho paper was
