Hunter Is now under sentence of
death In connection with the triple
murder. Frequent effort* had been
made'on the part of the state and coun
sel to bring Coker to trial. He was ar
rested In January. 1910. One obstruc
tion and another were Interposed In
making the trial a long time In being
reached. After Hunter had been tried,
convicted and sentenced and the case
reviewed by two governors, It was de.
clared he should have a respite until tho
charges against Coker hod been deter
mined.
Just what effect the verdict In the
Coker case will hare on the Hunter

olrcles. There are some', who argui
that the acquittal of Coker will argui

In the twe cases was quite similar.
Counsel for Hunter will take early steps
