HAZEN COOL A He
GETS LIFE TERM
Attorneys Make Vain Plea for
New Trial for Slayer
of Sims.

Fay E, HRzen, slayer OF b R. Sims.
showed 10 signs Of emotion Saturday IN
First criminal court when Judge Rich
ards overruled his motion for a new
trial and sentenced him 10 serve the
remainder Of life In the state peniten-
tiary at Nashville,
Hazen's attorneys. Hugh Magevney
and clyde GoinG, argued In behalf Of
their client for a new trial for two
hours, hut in vain. They held that the
indictment did not specify the form Of
homicide the defendant was charged
with and the jury in It's verdict did not
state what form Of homicide II found
HaEen guilty Of This, MaEeVney ar
gued, was ground for a lev trial. The
Judge. he declared. could not change
the 1ury's verdict, as he only could in
struCt the jury as to the law n not
as tosthe facts In the case.
Attorneys for Hazen then presented
a motion for arrest OF Judgment, but
that, too, was uverruled, and HaEen was
then ordered to stand up and he sem
fenced Shortly after the sentence was
passed he smiled.
THE attorneys for the defendant We're
given Is days in which TO prepare a bill
Of exceptions for an appeal Of the case
TO the supreme court and their client
later was released on an appeal bnnd
Of sos, 600, the suretlos being r, l.. Jor-
dan and John T, Fisher, his present
bondsmen.
Hazen shot and killed Sims Is the
latter was aboard a sleeping car at the
Union depot in company with Mrs;
Hazen. The grand jury at first ignored
the bill Of indictment, but on resubmis-
sion Hazen was indicted for murder In
the first degree. The jury In the first
trial of the case failed to agree and
was discharged, but Hazen was found
guilty the second time he was brought
before the bar Of justice. The life pen
atty is the extreme limit Of the law IN
his case, as the killing took place be
fore the restoration Of capital punish
ment for murder In the first degree.
