The automobile which figured in the apprehension of James T. Holmes, Harry W.

Lelsinger, Augus 28 last, will be admitted in evidence at the trial now in progress of the three men before Chief Justice Mc- Coy in Criminal Division 2. The court last week decided that as the police had taken possession of the car without a search warrant it could not be accepted as evidence against Holmes, from whose garage it had been seized. The other accus- ed cannot clalm any benefit from the alleged illegal violation by the police of Holmes' rights, the court declar- ed today, and so testimony may be presented by the prosecution as to the automobile and its condition as evi- dence against Freeman and Gross. The change in the matter of ac- cepting evidence of the car was caused by an application of Attorney James A. O'Shea for the surrender of the vehicle to Holmes because scized In_violation of his constitutional right.
