The court has not failed to take
notice of the misconduct of the de-
fendant's counsel in the trial. when
he made an unfounded attack on
the prosecuting attorney and the
court. in his argument before the
jury. To such an extent was this
done, that the press OF the city
commented on the same. The court
believes that such unfounded at
tacks may have, and probably did.
have some effect on the minds OF
the jury. An unconscious prejudice
may have been created in the minds
OF the jury thru the actions of this
attorney.
"ln order that IL may not be said
that any man has been deprived of
