HOLDS ACQUITTAL
COVERS ALL CASES
Ray Pfanschmidts Attorneys Have
Another Card to Play it Present
Ruling 10 Not Favorable.

The SUNDAY Quincy Wing says:
Taking advantage OF every procedure
of criminal law, Covert & Lancaster,
counsel for Ray Pfanschmidt, will ask
for the release OF their client because
of his acquittal at Macomb If Judge
Davis of Princeton refuses to sustain
the motion that the prisoner be set at
liberty for the alleged murder OF EN-
ma Kaempen and Charles Pfanschmidt
because he was not tried within four
months from the date of his arrest.
The defense, nevertheless, is hopeful
and declares that in its opinion the
arguments on the motion at Princeton
Friday were Of sufficient weight to re-
suit in a decision favoring the Adams
county young man In the Bureau coun.
ty Jail and it will not be necessary to
enter the motion for release because
of the former acquittal.
Such a motion would be based on
the verdict of the jury at Macomb
which found the defendant not guilty
of the murder of his sister, Blanche
Pfanschuidt, after he had been sent
enced to death on the same Charge ny
the jurors OF this county,
Covert & Lancaster hold that to
find Ray Pfanschmidt not guilty OF
numbering his sister is equivalent &C
declaring the defendant innocent OF
staying his father and Miss Emma
Kaempen The Indictment for the
murder OF his mother, Matilda Plan
schmidt, was nolle pressed before the
| first trial started because the state
feared that the whole four true bills
might be thrown out of court on q
/ tecFnicality.
| The prosecution indicted Ray Plan
schmidt for the killing Of four persons
separately because it believes that Il
is impossible for anybody to murder
four persons with one blow.
! The attorneys in the case will re
turn to Princeton Monday to hear the
decision of Judge Davis on the motion
TO set the defendant at liberty ant
providing 1t is against the defense the
motion to bar John E Wall as counse
= for the prosecution will be argued. The
