Henry U. Johnson, was listened to
with eager attention by the twelve

CROWDS PREJUDICE
Will FORM GROUND
FOR APPEAL PLEA

1t was intimated by one of the at
torneys for the plaintiff in the Hase-
meier -Bentlage case. today that if the
jury returns a verdict for the defense,
a motion will be made for a new trial
and a change Of venue will be asked
out of the county
Undue prejudice" will be the cause
for the appeal for a new trial, said
the attorney.
The demonstration made in the
court room Monday afternoon during
the argument OF Henry U. johnson,
will be made the basis Of the plea for
a new trial providing the Jury returns
verdict In favor Of the defense, he
stated. In event a new trial is refused
on this grounds it is highly probable
that an appeal will be taken to higher
courts and that all of the evidence
presented during the past three weeks
will have to be transcribed by the
court reporter.
I'VE had nothing to conceal in this
case," the attorney continued. "and
for that reason we did not ask that
the case be taken out Of the county
The sentiment which was demonstrate
ed in the Kissing in court, will un-
doubtedly tend to have an affect on
the jurymen and prejudice will be
made the basis of new trial. provid-
ing the verdict is against u.s."
