eAPPlNs APPEAL DISMISSED
Court Sounds Note of Warning to
Shyster Lawyers.

The supreme court of Tuesday dis
missed the appeal of Jesse Gappins,
one Of the Brazeil murder trio follow
ing the motion in the morning by So
licitOr Callson in open court for a
dismissal The court dismissed the
appeal for lack of merit, and in the
course of the hearing Chief Justice
Gary heavily scored lawyers for what
he termed as apparent trifling with
the courts.
Under Rule 80 the court can dis
miss appeals where no merit exists
and it was under this rule that Solic-
itor Callison made his motion in the
morning. The order dismissng the
appeal says that everything that an
officer should do is presumed to have
been done unless proved otherwise.
This was in regard to the sole plea
of Gappins for a new trial on the
grounds that the grand jury which
indicted him was not sworn, so far as
the minutes of the court showed.
A motion to quash the indictment
would have been in order on these
grounds, the court says, but no
grounds for an appeal are contained
on such a plea. In dismissing the ap-
peal the court orders the remittitur
sent to the clerk Of court of Lexing-
ton in order that a new day may be
set for the carrying out of the death
sentence of the lower court.
Others May Lose.
The appeals of $. J. Kirby and c. o.
Fox, the other members OF the Braze'l
murder trio, have never been complet-
ed and il is understood that Solicitor
Calison will move for dismissal of
these alleged appeals before the May
term of the court of general sessions

During the hearing on the motion
of Solicitor CallisoI, Chief Justice
Gary strongly scored attorneys for
apparent trihing with the courts and
declared that if the process of law
becomes trifled with the lawyers will

Justice Watts declared that he
thought the court would be stuItify-

without swearing the grand jury, one
of the. first things he is concerned
with in opening the court.
