which He Gave-The Case Can.

Asheville, N. c., Nov 3.-This after
noon at 1855 Judge Adams called in
the Watkins jury and finding that an
agreement was impossible, discharged
them and ordered a mistrial. The Jury
had been out total of four days and
live minutes, having taken the case

When the jury came in this after

the twelve men to agree. The jury
was polled, and it was found that six
stood for acquittal and six for man

Judge Adams required bond from Mr..
Watkins in the sum of $4,000 for his
appearance at the next term of the
Superior Court for the trial of crimi-
nal cases. The bond was given imme-
diately.
There has been some talk that an
effort might be made to have the case
removed to another county for the
next trial, but Solicitor Brown said
this afternoon that no such action had
been taken. That such action was
not contemplated. The solicitor said
that the case could not be tried again
before the February term.

THE BUFFERS SCORE
Supreme Court Gives Them
a New Trial in Su-
perlo, Court.
Judge Manning in a Well Written
Opinion for the Court Discusses
Only Two Legal Errors Cem-
mitted by Trial Judge.

Raleigh, N. c., Nov. 4-The we'll
known case of State against Marion
and Lester Butler was sent back to
Guilford county for new trial by a
decision of the Supreme Court yester-
day.
Marion and Lester Butler were in
dicted for publishing in the Caucasian
criminal libel on Judge Spencer B.
Adams.
Upon trial last summer in Green's
boro, they were convicted and SEN
fenced to pay fine. From this judg
ment, they appealed to the Supreme
Court, which gave them new trial.
Judge Manning, in a well-written
opinion for the court, discusses only
two legal errors committed by the
trial judge. One of the errors for
which new trial was ordered was
the admission in evidence of state
ments made by attorneys of the But
lers at the preliminary trial. It seems
that the State asked for a continu-
ance of the preliminary trial on the
ground that it had been unable to Sc
cure certain statements about the
Caucasian from the Secretary of
State. The attorneys for the Buffers
stated that they did not want the trial
continued, and that they would admit
that Lester Butler was in the edito-
rial department of the Caucasian, and
that Marion Butler was connected
Witt IN frio in Cun
Court, the documents from the Secre-
tary of States Office were introduced
in evidence and also the statements
made by Buffers attorneys. The Su-
preme Court says this was error; that
the statements made by Buffers at
torneys were only competent in the
preliminary trial and should not have
been allowed in the regular trial.
The only other matter discussed in
the opinion is the allowing an opinion
of the Supreme Court of the District
of Columbia to be introduced in evil
dence. The Buffers had alleged that
the Choctaw and Chickasaw Citizen
ship Court, of which Judge Adams
was a member, had allowed $750,00C
as fee to firm of attorneys and that
Judge Adams had received part of this
fee. Suit was brought in the Distric,
of Columbia to enjoin the payment Of
this fee by the Secretary of the Treas
ury of the United States. The Supreme
Court of the District of Columbia re
fused to enjoin the Secretary of tn.
Treasury. In the opinion for the cour
by one of the judges, it is stated Incl
dentally and not as ruling OF law
that he thinks such a fee was a rea
sonable sum and not excessive or un
reasonable. This opinion duly certi
! fed, and not the judgment of tn
court, was put In evidence by tn
State in the Butler trial.
The Supreme Court holds that thi
was error; that decisions of othe
states may be put in evidence whe
it is desired to ascertain the law i
such a state, but the Buffers not bein
parties to the suit in the District c
Columbia, it was certainly error to al
low in evidence that part of opinio
: wherein the Judge gives his persona
views as to the $75O,000 being reason
| able.
The further fight in this matter wi
} be watched with great interest.
