Rperlpl to The Georgian. Charlotte, N. C„ July II.—It ft thought that thera will be no trial of the alleged Anson county lynchers at this term of the court. The* defense made a motion to quash, but Judge Shaw denied this and last night seemed to be of the opinion that ths trill of Indictment was faulty. If the trial Is postponed It Is thought the Mil against Zeik Lewis will bt ijhashed end the cases against the other defedanls al leged lynchers of J. v. Johnston, will be continued, (peels! te The Georgian. Charlotte, N. C., July II.—Before the grand Jury adjourned yesterday after noon Indictments had been returned agalnlt eleven of the nineteen alleged members of the mob which lynched Johnson at Wadesboro May 28. The Indictments were mads under ths amended charge to the Jury. In place of the former Indictment, which charged the defendants with violating the 18» statute, wide vldes punishment for entering a Jail wltb Intent to Injure or kilt a prisoner, or of conspiring to do so, Hollcltor Robinson this afternoon sent to the grand Jury a bill embodying three counts, vis: conspiring to break and enter a Jail for tha purpose of lynch ing a prisoner; breaking and entering und killing and lynching. Removal Provision Annulled. | It Is contended by the defense that the IMS statute, which provided for trial In another county than that In which the lynching occurred, has been amended by the new code of the state ao as to annul the provision for re ntbval, and that therefore the InrfWt ments should be quaehed and the cases remanded to Anson county for trial. The Indications were that those con tentions would be upheld by the court and that the motion to quash would go to ths suprsme court on appsal by ths state, but decision being deferred the case took the new turn noted.
