Judge Evans presiding, for the tria.
of Elmer Lloyd, charged with raping
Mrs. Lily Mullane at Annapolis last
October. A jury was secured tina
day and the taking Of evidence began
Tuesday morning. The evidence Of
Mrs. Mullane was much the same al
that she has given heretofore. A sur
prise was injected into the proceed
ings, however, when Lemrow Kelly
one of the seven defendants, was in
PRODUCED Tuesday evening by the state
as a witness. His, story was inimical
to the defense, and was very much
in accord with that told by Mullant
and his wife at the time the affail
happened. 1t will probably require
all of to-day to complete the trial O
Loyd's case. When it is over VIM
Brewer will be put on trial again, the
Sheriff having been ordered to have
jury here. Brewers trial last Deem
Der, it will be remembered, resulted
in a hung jury. Whether any othe.
of the ase will be disposed of a
this sitting Of the court is doubtful, a.
Judge Evans has to go to Dunklii
county next week.
