COURT THINKS FIVE
YEAR SENTENCE TOO
LONG FOR THEFT
Judge McCrory Says He
Will Set Aside McDan-
iel Penalty.

Seven years in the state peniten-
tiary was tlh punishment melted out
by jury Tuesday afternoon in the
case of Clayton G. c. Mcdaniel, prin-
cipal in the famous scissors, murder
trial, on two charges of theft over
$50. Judge w. W. McCrory of the
.I4th District Court, before whom Nc
Daniel was tried. indicated that he
would set aside one Of the judgments.
that for five years, and grant a new
trial. The jury had given Mcdaniel
two years in one case and five in
the second.
The latter verdict came as d.
tinct surprise TO both court and Co h..
sci. Mcdaniel had been tried lasr
July for the murder of his wife. L,fu,
Mcdaniel. and acquitted. Since t,.t
time he has been in police court sew
cral times and recently was indicted
on four counts of theft and burglary.
When his case was called Tuesday.
Assistant District Attorney John
Shook agreed with McDanicl's counsel
that if the defendant would enter
pleas of guilty in the two theft cases
the two charges Of burglary would be
dismissed.
A jury was selected and the plea
of guilty entered. The defendant took
the stand and admitted the theft of
more than $50 worth Of tools from a
carpenter named n. II. Shanks. Mr..
Shook then told the jury that Nc
Daniel had made "clean breast" of
his offense and he would recommend
the lowest penalty. The Jury re.
turned verdict of guilty and assessed
his punishment at two years in the
penitentiary.
Approving the promptness with
which the jury had handled the ease.
court and counsel immediately decided
to retain the same jury for the trial
| of the second case. the charge being
that Mcdaniel had stolen more than
! $50 worth of tools from another car.
! penter. Mr.. Shoot, went throuh the
same procedure, complying with al
the requirements Of the law, and thu
! jury retired TO celebrate.
! They stayed out considerably longel
than on the first occasion and court
counsel and defendant began TO lool
anxious.
"Flve years." Judge McCrory reat
out when the jury finally returned
and handed him the verdict. There
was whispered consultation between
court and counsel, then between court
and the assistant district attorney
Mr.. Shook was satisfied with the yer.
diet but the court and defense thought
it should have been two years. Judge
McCrory had planned to let the two,
two-year sentences run concurrently
had the jury not staged the surprise.
IL think two years would be enough,
he is young man." Judge McCrory
said.
He said he would set aside the five
year verdict and grant Mcdaniel a
new trial. Mr.. Shook pointed gut
that the fixing of the punishment
was within the discretion of the court
