Either for or Against Husband, Is
 Decision in Night-Rider Case.

Union City, Tenn, Dec. 30-The question of whether a wife can testi- fy for her husband was raised to-day in the trials of the eight alleged night riders for the murder of Capt. Ran ken, and the court ruled that under the laws of Tennessee, a wife could not testify for or against her hus- band.
