Phil- hp~ made the principal argument to the court having intimated ! previously to the State that unless his mind could by satistied with the correctness of the verdict he would set it aside. Af the conclusion of the argument, the judge made his ruling to the effect that the motion for a new trial be granted, and, ac- cordingly, the verdict of guilty was set aside, Thomas Palmer for the defendant then made a motion for a change of venue, setting up in his motion that it would be hard for his client to get a fair and impartial tria] in this county owing to the fact that there has been so much said and written about the case. The motions for change of venue were not granted, but the court rather intimated that he might grant a change of venue to Lee county, and that the case would be tried at Fort Myers some time in September. However, this matter has not been finally determined upon. int in the was the g wis With from the mainland, the coming of a railroad Key West is to have an electric car line that will i traverse the island.
