The argument was concluded In the
case of the State of Texas vs. Tony
Woodward tharged with the murder
of Jim Steepleton Wednesday after-
noon at 8: Sit. In our report of the
rase ye.-nerady we stated the a6
would probably not Le submtHed to
the jury before today but the attor-
neys aureed yesterday on only two
hours to each side for argument
which ne essartlr shortened the caso.
JudK" J. W. Horenius cloned the ras
for the defense in a spee u of thir-
ty minute's making a most poerful
and logjtul plea for an cuuittal. Ha
was followed by District Attorney W.
C. Davis In a speech of about one
hour and twenty minutes. Ills address
was lHpned la by a large crowd of
Interested Siectators. He made an
earnest plea for the conviction of the
defendant at timet growing very e!r.
Hient. The Jury took the case under
advisement until 9 oYlo k last night
and retired at that hour. This morn-
ing they tMk the papers in the case
and again c nsldere I It until 9:21
when they filed into court and pre-
Keii.d the following vcnllit: "We
the j.iry. find the defendant not guilty.
W. W. Crlffln. Foreman."
No case tried here In years created
more Interest than the Woodward case
has. The defendant an Italian mer-
chant on North Main street shot to
death Jim Steepleton on the 1Mb. day
of January. 1915. in the yard of An-
tone Pureck In the nonrthern part of
the city. His pleat was self-defense.
