Nothing Whatever Has Been Done
To Bring Them To
Trial
TWO HUNDRED CASES ARE
NOW BEFORE ASHFORD
District Court Grinding Out Addl-
tional Cases For Upper
Court Daily 4. :.

Nothing whichever is being done
towards bringing TO trial in the circuit
court any OF, the numerous criminal
cases on appeal from th5 district court
There is no prospect that ANYTHING will
be done in the immediate future.
The number of such cases is reported
to approximate two hundred, and more
are being added every day. Anywhere
from four to q dozen cases come mp
from the district court sally and are
added to the long waiting list.
Judge Ashford was asked yesterday
what ne had done in the matter. He
said he had done nothing. He was
asked what he intended to do. He said
he didn't intend to do ANYTHING at
present. He was asked If no action
would be taken until the appointment
Of a third judge. He said he wouldn u
say that. ". Fl. ~ T.
The Judge said the criminal cases
we're not assigned to him; they were as
signed to the third Judge, and there is
now no third Judge As a matter of
fact, Judge Ashford himself assigned
the criminal eases to the third Judge,
and when Judge Coke left the circuit
bench for the supreme bench he re.
assigned the cases TO Judge Ashford.
Tue only other circuit Judge left Is
Judge Whitney, who has resigned and
his resignation has been accepted, to
take effect when he finishes up certain
cases he is trying. Judge Whitney
fas been holding court morning and aft.
ernoon, and has even held night SEES
sions lately. He hoped to leave the
bench by the fifteenth of this month,
but 1t is not certain that,he will finish
his cases by that time.
. Judge Ashford was resting on a sofa
in his chambers yesterday afternoon.
In fact, he said he had been taking q
nap. Asked how his own calendar was
he said he had plenty to do. The
Judge holds court only in the morning
which obviates the possibility of his
helping to clear up the many scores Of
criminal cases awaiting trial. j. -. o., .
The Judge said thai no criminal cases
fsere tried in the eirctit court last year
from February to November From
February to July, he said, there was no
money to pay jurors. The law pro
hibits the trial of criminal jury cases
during July and August. Why no
eases we're tried during September and
October he did not say, He said that
half dozen murder cases and several
Felony cases were tried during Novem-
Der and December, upito the Christmas
holidays. Last month the criminal
cases were assigned to. Judge Coke, but
since he left the bench nothing had
been done. ,,. l..a... .. ...
