SCHUMANN ASKS FOR
 A NEW HEARING.
ATTORNEY Boulc CITES 70 AL LEGED IRREGULARITIES IN
 THE FORMAL MOTION.
Charges Prejudice Was shown by Prosecuting Attorney and Trial Judge in the Manner of
 Remarks.

The formal motion for a new trial Tor Clarence A. Schumann convicted of murder in the first degree for Killing his wife in this city last July, was lied yesterday with the circuit court and will be heard next Tues day. Seventy exceptions saved in the record during the trial of the case are referred to in the motion. dealing with the evidence taking, the rulings Of the court, and alleged incidents in the progress of the arguments.
 MT. Bouic, who was appointed by the court to defend Schumann. is cer. tainly evidencing zeal in his clients behalf as is snown in perusal of the motion, which is lengthy and con- tains many details.
 Particular notice is given in the mo- tion for the new trial to the charge that Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Scott Wood made preiudiciai state. ments in the argument of the case. and that Circuit Judge Cothams ac- tions, while arbitrating between Wood and himself duritg contentious over the argument, were such as to preju dice the interests of Schumann.
 The exceptions were numerous and cover many points, one being that Deputy Prosecutor Wood asked Off, cer Howell if Charles Bluitt, a de fense witness, had not been convicted of petty larceny, when the motion |sets forth the allegation that Deputy Wood knew at the time that Bluitt had not been convicted.
 Another paragraph calls particular attention to the ruling of the court wherein MT. Bouic was not allowed to put Rev. Fomey Hutchinson.E Rev. Percy Cross and others on the8stand to prove that Mrs Schumann had stated to them that Schumann was a morphine victim and was crazy at times waen using it.
 The courts ruling on this point was covered in the general rule that a wife can not under the Arkansas code testify either for or against her hus- band. and that to present in the trial statements the wife might have made, would be introducing statements Mrs. Schumann would not be permitted to make herself, were she alive, and were some other the victim of Schu- mann's murder.
 Judge Gotham will rule on the mo tio1 for new trial next Tuesday, after which it is expected that the death sentence will be announced Mr BouIt will then give notice of an appeal to the supreme court, and there seek to at least stay the execu- tion of his client as long as possible.
