A picture of Harrison's had been found in the home of Mrs. Kath erine Smolek, the white comyplain ant against him. and Williams told the “judge” that vnless he made a eanfesion. it would go very bad for him in court if it were brought out that he had had a love affair with 2 white woman. The investigator. still trying to obtain Harrison's sig gature., is also said to have referr a4 to the fact that he Williams, aras born in Mississippi. and since darrison was born there. too, he, Williams. would take care of a fel 0w Mississippian. white or black.

State Tries Hard to . : Convict J. Catone NEGRO CONFESSED MEMPHIS, Tennessee, Dec. 2.-- Charlie Collins, who pleaded guilty to a series of spectacular robberies, and pointed to John Catone, white, proprietor of a gro cery store, as the receiver of stolen voods amounting to several hun. dred dollars. was sentenced ¢ corve eight years in the state| penitentiary. He was convicted unt 'three charges. housebreaking, lar ‘ceny, and receiving stolen pro perty. The same jury that gave Collins nearly the full extent of | the penalty for his criminal acts! returned on the very same d:n'v] | Wednesday, December 2. a mistrial ) verdict in the case of John Catone | indicted on a charge of receiving the stolen property. The two mon lwere indicted jointly several lweeks ago by a Shelby County Grand Jury. - The white defendant was repre sented by attorney R. R. Bond. celebrated lawyer of this city. Un able to secure a legal representa tive, Collins received "the service of a public defender. Attorney Ed ward Burten, A fierce and un merciful prosecution of both de fendants came from Assistant At ftm’ncy General Will Gerber and | Attorney Campbell. Since Collins ‘'had already brought the wrath of 'the criminal law upon his head through his confession, the two state prosecutors blazed their fier: ‘attack at John Catone, who was convicted on a similar charge sev leral years ago. The last case wa¢ lheard in Judge Harsh's court division No. 2. The voung public defender Bur ton realized that his client had thrown himse!f on the merices of ‘court, and he merely pleaded that ‘the jury would deal gently with ‘him. | “From the very beginning.” At torney Burton declared. Collins has co-operated with the police *force.”” 'After his confession, he took the officers immediately to the place where the goods were ' stored. I realize that you are | duty bound to sentence this Ne 'gro defendant, but do so wthout prejudice and passion.” Attorney Bond pointed out that Collin’s confession was invalid so far as Catone, his client, was con cerned. The weight of evidence must rest upon semething clse rather than the confession of the Negro defendant. The law does not hold one accomplice account 'able on the strength of the evid ence presented by another. “And| without the confession of (_'n%'insj Catone would have never been ar rested.” The defense counselor went far ther and stated that the state must prove that Catcne bought the goods with the Kknowledge that they were stolen goods and with the fraudulent intention of d priving the owner or owhers of them. “The fact that Catone spent sixty days in the county jail on a like charge does not have any bearing on the present case. At torney Bond closed his summary with the appeal that the defendant w+as the head of large family. that his wife is an expectant mother, and his little children would be lanking to ‘him as their Sania (Claus around Chistmas time Assistant Attorney General ter ber declared that Catone knew those goods were stolen or he | would not have denied at first ‘that he had them in his poss ssion. The fact that he beught sevocal rexpensive coats, a diamond ring. men suits from time to time frore Collins for a meager sum of ten ‘dollars, proves his guilt. If Catome had thought that the bed spread belonged to that WNegro thisf. he would have never put them cn his own bed. Those coats and manvy other pieces of clothes were hang ing in his own wardrobe to be used by Catone and his family. - If it were not for John Ca'lone. an intelligent white man. who pruts his hands out to a Negro thief and takes: from him the siopeirtv. of otner people, Charlie Calling , o .

The cuestion was raised that it would te mockery for the convention to rcrelvy custain the present 18th mendment prohibiting the lega ized sale of liquor when the three endments dealing with the fun vnental rights of the Negro are e ng utterly disregarded. It was ‘nally decided that the prohibition ne involved a great moral ques tion on which the eyes of the coun try are focused, and the conven ‘ion should take one solid stand in support of means by which America may keep dry.
