Bretz Asks For New Trial
on Ground That Act of
1878 Is Unconstitutional

Attacking the constitutionality of
the Act of June IL, 1878, under
which Harry NJ. Bretz, lawyer, was
convicted on charges of embezzle-
ment as attorney, O. G.. Wicker
sham, as his counsel to-day filed
motions for new trials in the four
cases in which the jury returned
verdicts of guilty.
Mr.. Wickersham, in giving his
reason for asking a retrial states
that under the Act of 1878 the term
attorney" is used in referring to d
lawyer acting as agent FOR a bank
or other corporation and not in ,pri-
vate legal business. He declares that
for this reason it does not apply to
the indictments under which Bretz
was tried and that they should have
been quashed. The court refused to
quash the indictments when Bretz
was called for trial and refused a
separate trial in each case. These
points are raised also as reasons for
a new trial.
The motion for a new trial may
be listed for the session of argument
court to be held next Tuesday.

EVANS LAWYERS
ASK NEW TRIAL
tcontinucd from First Page.l

using the remarks of Mr.. Wicker
sham as one of the reasons.
Evans was tried twice before
Judge A. w. Johnson, specially pre-
siding, and was convicted of first de-
gree murder at both trials. At the
first trial 1t was claimed the court
erred in the charge to the jury.
Judge johnson at that time granted
motion for new trial and heard
the case a second time during the
criminal court session last week.
Evans attorneys claim that when
they closed the defense Mr.. Wicker
sham remarked: 81 am surprised!
Your Honor will excuse me for a
moment" He struck a table or a
chair with his hand, arose and
strobe out of the courtroom to an
other room used by attorneys.
Evans counsel state the jury may
have been prejudiced by that re-
mark which to them seemed to in
!dicate Mr.. Wickersham was surpris-
ed Evans was not sent to the stand.
In giving other reasons Mr.. Ear
nest and Mr. McCarrell allege the
court erred in. a discussion of
whether testimony was to be adj
mitted when 1t said The court
would get into an error and we
would have to try the case over
again., remark which may have
influenced the jury to believe a
conviction would be returned in the
verdict.
The attorneys also declare there
waSAno complcte ohlitcraticn of the
verdict at the first trial with the ex-
ceptian of pie of napcr pasted
over the return If the jury and
nothing to show that this was a sec
ond trial. The motion may be argued
