TO ASK ACQU|TTAL
IN GARRETT CASE
Defense Will Move That Life
Cannot Be Jeopardized
Twice.
Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
RICHMOND, Va. August Sit is
the intention of the defense in the
case of Larkin c. Garrett of Cumber-
land county, charged with the murder
him discharged when his second trial
is called.
The basis of this will be mistrial in
the first hearing. or partial hearing
in which the state asked for and was
allowed a mistrial. The contention of
the defense will be that the life of the
accused has been placed in jeopardy
and that it cannot be done a second
time, the Constitution forbidding that.
The move is expected to come at
the very inception of the next trial,
and that will mean fight of some
time. it is believed. The state will
resist the motion. of course. and will
demand that he be tried for the crime
for which he is indicted. holding that
the mistrial resulted in what is equiv
alent to a hung jury.
The matter Is certain to get TO the
supreme court of appeals. for If the
motion of the defense is overruIed
there will be an exception noted for
the purpose of taking IL up for re-
view. Judge White Is considered one
of the ableSt men on the bench in
Virginia, and he would devote a good
deal of time to having the case ar
gued before he made ruling. This
will be new phase of this cele-
brated case, which will become ia
nous for several reasons. among 9th
ers the ordering of mistriaI after
much of the evidence had been heard
and the lawyers were getting ready TO
