a meeting of the court tomorrow. Com
' mlssloner Oldham failed to reach the city
until late this afternoon.
It was expected that at this sitting the
decision In the Llllle murder case would
be handed down, but It Is probable that
thla opinion will not be reported until at
least one mora sitting. The evidence in
the ease. Is so voluminous that It has been
Impossible for the judges to go over It
thoroughly and more time. It Is believed,

criminal cases the only one that Is expected
to come down Is that of McCormlck against

1902, he was sentenced and taken to the

the supreme court on error and the dl
clslon of the trial wae affirmed In all par
ticulars except that It. waa remanded ao
that sentence could be passed according to
law,, the records showingThat the trial
judge) had failed to Inform the prisoner
of his conviction and to. ask him If he had
anything to say why judgment should not
be passed upon htm. ' In January, 1903, Mc
Cormlck was again before the trial judge,
and, acting within the mandate of the su
preme court, sentence, wta , again passed
utkon ?Um itirhe was- rrtufned to the pen

MoCormiek's attorney contended:
First Thst the first Judgment waa par
tially rompulsorlly satisfied while it stood,
and therefore the second Judgment called
for the Inlllctlon of a second punishment
for the same offense.
Second The order of the supreme court
directing the entry of a second judgment
on me same veraiet mat ine nrst juagment
was rendered was unauthorised, and the
sentence pronounced thereon waa without
