MILTON PHYSICIAN HAS BEEN
UNABLE TO SECURE BOND
FOB RELEASE

Nfan0 rVTkS, March S1.-Dr. j. y.
Reilly, arrested at Larimore the fore.
part Of last week and returned to
Langdon, is still being held in the
county Jail. IT,
States Attorney Graham of Cava.
ier county said today that so far as
he knew tho defendant physician was
making no further effort to secure
bond.
Freedom for the physician would
require bond of $4,000. and the
bond under which he enjoyed freedom
previous to the decision of the su.
preme court which upheld the finding
OF the district court by which he was
sentenced to ten years in the state
penitentiary, no longer holds because
OF the fact that three Of the five
bondsmea Withdrew their names
Should the physician fail to secure
reheasang, he probably will have to
60 TO the state penitentiary during
the week OF April as on April s the
stay OF execution ordered by the su-
prene court expires.
The application for rehearinp will
90 presented 10 the uspreme court
new evidence being the plea on which
the physician seeks to have the case
reopened.

Percy Jones the Fort Myers lawyer
on trial in Tampa last week charged
with assault with intent to murder his
sister-in-law, was defended by Col.
Robert w. Davis, formerly of this city
and for many years Congressman from
the Second district.
Jones was convicted, but the
eloquence of Col. Davis, together with
his brilliant handling of the case re-
suited in a verdict for lesser crime
than that charged. The Tampa Times;
gives considerable space to the sum-
ming up of the case, and of the ad-
dress of Col. Davis says:
During the speech of Colonel Da-
Wis, which closed the side for the de.
fense, the criminal courtroom echoed
to one of the most brilliant and elo-
quent speeches ever made in that
building. The distinguished lawyer
was at his best, and the courtroom
was hushed to silence as the gifted
speaker eloquently argued to the jury
for the man on trial. During the
entire time that Colonel Davis spoke
undertone which more or less marks
large gathering, even in court
room, was absent, and his words
could be heard to the galleries.
Sentence of the prisoner was post
poned pending an appeal for re-trial'
