HAUSER MAY GET
ONE MORE CHANGE
Application for New Trial Will
be Forwarded to Supreme
Court This Week.
ALLEGES ERRORS BY SEARS

Arthur Hauser, convicted of man
slaughter for the killing of William
H. Smith, cashier of the Woodmen
of the World, on October 10, 1915,
may have one last chance to secure
his liberty, OF reduction Of his SEN
tence. Hauser is now serving life
sentence at the state penitentiary.
Public Defender Richard A. Horton
is completing the preparation OF
lengthy transcript of evidence show
ing that errors were committed when
Judge Willis G. Sears, who heard the
case following the death Of Judge
English, refused to grant change OF
venue because of prejudice against
Hauser in Douglas county.
More than 100 instances of where
alleged errors crept into the handling
of the case are set forth in the appli-
cation for new trial.
This is the first instance Of a test
in Nebraska to prove that the death
of the trial judge demands that the
defendant be given new trial. Pub
lie Defender Horton maintains that
the laws of most states require that
thirteen men hear the evidence
twelve jurors and the Judge, and that
the situation in the Hauser case was
similar. He asserts that the death
of Judge English during the trial
automatically granted new hearing
to Hauser. The motion was denied
by Presiding Judge Sears, who sen
fenced Hauser to spend the remainder
of his days in the state penitentiary.
