ING Bribery.

Counsel Argues Trial Improper BE.
cause One Transaction Is Iu-
VOWED In Both Complaints.

Former Chief Of Police Honest
George" Sheets is lighting hard 20 es-
cape trial on the charge OF bribery.
brought against him in connection with
the robbing and swindling Of the Nc
Whittier brothers in the Anter ROOM
ing house ia west Second South street
little over a year ago. The informa-
ton charges him with having received
a bride OF Sl,sO0 from the participants
IN the sensational transaction by which
the gullible Scotchmeu were relieved
of $4,000 In hard earned and carefully
boarded cash soon after their arrival IN
this country from the bucolic settle
ment of Maybole, nestled among the
rolling greenswards Of AYRSHIRE The
contention Of the defendant. through

T.. A. Wedgwood. of counsel for the

ing session of court today. at which
Judge Charles W Morse presided MI
WedgwoOd, as a preliminary TO his ac-
tual argument Of the facts Ia the case.
presented the legal ground upon which
they VIII stand, outlining the laws COW
ering the case in all OF its phases. the
intention Of the legislative bodies which
formulated and placed upon the statute
books the provisions IN mind and then,
for the purposes of his argument. as
sumed the facts brought out In evil
dence in previous hearings OF the case.
WEDGWOOD'S ARGUMENT.
Mr.. Wedgwood asserted In his pre-
liminary address 70 the bench that the
state NAV search a given transaction,
one transaction. and from % evolve a
charge OF act contrary to law. They
may prosecute the defendant on that
charge but only on that charge. Fur
ther. he argued, when a defendant is
bound over for trial by a committing
magistrate to answer I'm trial court
for that crime. the prosecution has not
the right 20 bring out Of the uansac-
tion referred TO in the prior action an
other charge and seek to place the de-
PENDANT on trial for that. too. 1t is
upon these two propositions that the
defense win seek TO have the informa-
ton against Honest" George Quashed.
All further argument was along the
lire Of showing fact 20 support the
contention OF the defense that the
charge OF bribery IS drawn out Of the
same transaction as the conspiracy
charge. upon which charge the deposcd
chief awaits trial. Mr.. Wedgwood had
not finished at the noon adjournment.
