History Of Case.
This is the third i Of. Clark. and
.Grockard. III March 1913, they were
summoned into federal court before
Federal Judge Willard to answer to
"a counts of sending obscene litera-
ture through interstate commerce
channels. The first trial resulted in
disagreement. r
The second trial was held in June
of that year when the defendants
were found guilty on both counts
Judge Willard imposed fine of $4,000
and costs for each count on each de-
PENDANTS with sentence of two years
each in the federal penitentiary. The
verdict of the jury was based on two
specific charges of the March and an.
other issue of Jim Jam Jem known as
the sec:i-annlIal edition that year.
Clark and Crockard carried the case
to the United States Circuit Court of
Appeals and won out, the higher court
in it's decision of March 2, 1914, order.
ing a retrial on the grounds that the
case involved not only the two para
graphs of the issues on which the de-
PENDANTS had been found guilty, but
the entire articles of those publica-
tions. Something like 14S errors were
also put forth by the defendants in
their appeal, but these were set aside
by the higher court. The present or
third trial now under way is accord.
ingly a re-trial of the two counts on
which Clark and Crockard had been
found guilty. Judge Willard who
passed sentence in the trial of June,
1918, has since died, and Judge Booth
