CRIMINAL APPEALS
SET NEW RECORD.
Many Cases Affirmed by That Trl-
bunal During the Last Two
Sessions.

Austin. Texas, Oct. 27.-Should
the court of criminal appeals keep
up 1t present pace, that tribunal VIII
be regarded as a veritable terror to
evil doors and violators of the GRIM
inal laws Of the state. During the
past two sessions the court made 4
record for affirming cases that has
never heretofore been equaled. At
the session held week ago, there
were 6 cases affirmed and none re-
versed, while at the session held
Wednesday, there were Is cases ar
firmed and only reversed and re-
manded
Lawyers and others over the state
are wondering whether this is due to
the fact that the lower courts and
the attorneys generally are commit
ting fewer errors, or whether the
court is determined that no guilty
person shall escape his just punish
ment on trivial technicalties.
