HIGH COURT HOLDS
SPECIAL SESSION
TO SAVE POOR MAN
Appellate Division in Brooklyn
Also Establishes a Precedent
in This Country.

The Appellate Division OF the Supreme
Court. sitting In special session In
Brooklyn for hearing the plea OF a pow
erty-stricken laborer to-day, reversed
all of the decisions of New York courts
relating to an alibl a. a reason for re-
fusing to extradite a person wanted In
another State for an alleged crime.
For the first time in the history of
American courts an opinion was rem
dered that where the Governor OF n
State demanded the extradition OF a
resident OF New York. the prisoner
might show that he was not In the
State where the crime was committed
at the time. and procure his release.
This striking decision was rendered
In the case OF Vita Gena, who lives
with his bride OF a year and little baby
at No. pa North Fifth street, Brooklyn.
The case concerned a murder which
was committed on Sunday. oct. 10, 1910,
In Collinsvllle. III. The Grand Jury at
Colllnsyllle indicted Gena for the crime
1t happened that there was n wedding
In New York on the same day. Gena
and his wife were guests at the we'd
ding. Many witnesses swore TO that
fact.
The man was employed by Corrigan q

building at Thirty-hrs street and Madi-
son avenue. Manhattan. The time books
Of the firm showed that the man worked

procured n writ of habeas corpus after
the Governor OF Illinois made the usual
demand upon the Governor OF New
York for ~eXtradition OF the man. jus
tice Kapper heard the case. lie dis
missed TIE writ. but said that he was
forced to take this action because all Of
the precedeSts OF tbs courts held that
an abb was a part Of the defense 20
be placed before the trial court and
could not be set up as a reason for re-
fusIng extraditlon.
Justice Kapper in Diminishing the
writ was so impressed with the situa-
ton that he asked Currcn to take the
case before the Appellate Division. Cur
ren's client was poor, He had no money
TO carry the expense of the litigation.
THE Appellate Division Is not In
session. Your Honor urged the at
torney.
Get them TO call a special hearing
