ROBBERY CHARGE AGAINST
SPENCER MAN is DROPPED

o. J. Smith Of Spencer, arrested
here yesterday afternoon by Chief
OF Police L. D. Snider on a charge
Of stealing raincoat from the. Bos-
ton Restaurant in Clarksburg, was
released last night when the owner
of the raincoat arrived here and
after getting his coat refused to
push the case against Smith.
The owner of the coat told Chief
Snider that the story told by Smith
was probably true as Smith had
left his coat in the restaurant anc
taken the wrong coat. Smith
claimed that he did not know thas
he had the wrong coat until arrest
ed here yesterday afternoon.
Smith could not have used the
coat that he carried away with him
as it was several sizes too small
for him. Smith left the city last
evening for his home.

CHARLES TOWN. May 1s.

CHARLES TOWN, May 19.-
(By the Associated III Press -
Judge Woods today overruled a
motion to direct verdict of not
guilty in the case of William Biz
zard, youthful mine union official
charged with treason. as result
Of the armed march last summer
against Logan County, non-union
stronghold in the coal fields Of
the state.
Taking up one by one, in his
decision, the principal points ad-
vanced in the arguments, Judge
Woods held first that there had
been evidence sufficient for con-
slderation by the jury that war
existed and had been levied by
the armed men. s4
He also reviewed the argument
that treason against a state was
impossible because of the divis-
ion Of authority between state and
federal government and held that
this position could not be main
tanned.
Judge Woods on the other de-
tense motion limited the state as
to the overt act on which it relied
