CANCEL Steve WRIT
Supreme Court Clears Way
for Murder Appeal Ruling.

Handing down of the decision OF
the supreme court Tuesday, w;ping
out the coram nobis action, paved
the way for final decision in the D.
c. Stephenson murder appeal. it was
pointed out today.
The court cancelled the petition
for writ of error coram nobiS upon
request Of Stephenson filed by Paul
Newman. one of his attorneys. 1t
refused. however, to strike the action
from the record. It has been in
stituted by Attorney Felix Blanken-
baker. Terre Haute.
Among the filings in the action
were several affidavits alleging that
Stephenson failed to testify at the
NobleSville murder trial, because of
fear Of mob violence, inspired by
Imperial Wizard Hiram Wesley
Evans of the Ku-KluX Klan.
Stephenson, one time Indiana
Khan dragon, is serving a life SEN
tence at the Indiana State Prison.

PHILADELPHIA, June 26-At-
torneys for Alphonse iScarface) Ca
pone, Chicago underworld king"
today took their first action looking
toward possibly freeing him from
Holmesburg prison when they filed
q writ of coram nobis in municipal
court.
The application filed before Judge
John Walsh, the same judge who
sentenced Capone and Frank Cline,
his bodyguard, to a year in the
county prison after they had plead
ed guilty to carrying concealed
deadly weapons, is aimed at the rev.
ocation Of the year sentence.
One technical point of law is the
medium through which the Chi
cago gangster hopes to gain his lib
erty.
The point is a rare one, never
before evoked for a misdemeanor
case, it was said, in Pennsylvania.
The action, in legal terms, rested on
the contention that errors in fact
existed at Capone's arraignment be-
fore Judge Walsh have made him
eligible to apply for a writ of coram
nobiS on which can be argued a re-
versal Of sentence.
The writ Of cOrum nobis is heard
only in the court in which original
sentence was passed and empowers
the court to reverse its own de-
cision.
In everyday language, Capone's
complaint is that he was railroad
ed to jail by Philadelphia police
who did not give him a break" It
was rumored that ultimately the
corum nobis proceedings would lead
Capone to try for new trial.
Cline was not included in the
present action to obtain Capone's
release

ported that Wellington Koo, who
