 THE AGE HERALD Mont t0on,ary Ala no, z,

G. Ernest Jones, state senator for Barbour county. was acquitted in federal court here .oday of having used the mails to defraud. The jury n the case deliberated less than two hours, following an exhaustive charge by Federal Judge R. A. Call of Jacksonville, who incorporated in his exposition of the laws involved ali interpretations requested by de- fense counsel, Ray Rushton and Mike Sollie
 The action grew out of the alleged Withholding of moneys collected for rated, and the Hoje Montgomery company from David Abramson, a merchant of Clio. Ala Eight counts were returned in the indictment, four being based on the alleged fraud against Cluett, Peabody, and four against eMontgomery. The senator was charged with having written letters to the credit clearing house. New Orleans and Louisville, in which he left the impression that the money had not been collected. This was construed by the govern ment as being an effort to defraud the companies of the use of the money.
 The defense held that an attorney Is permitted to hold moneys until all court action is cleared and declared that in these cases court action had not been cleared with the payment of the money inasmuch as Jones was security for the payment of the costs. They showed that the money had been remitted in one case before the costs had been paid and in the other immediately after the costs had been settled.
