New Trial Granted Alleged Accessory to Auto Theft Columbus, Neb., April 1.—Holding that evidence in the case of Robert Francis, tried in district court here a year ago, was ilot of a nature to sus tain the verdict of guilty of auto theft which the jury returned against him, the Nebraska supreme court has entered an order reversing the verdict and remanding the case to the district court here for retrial. The higher court took the view that the' evidence was sufficient to convict Francis of being an accessory to the theft of the car, but not to prove that he was the principal. Since his trial the law haa been amended so that an accessory may be prosecuted and convicted as a principal in larceny, but the court says the defendant was "fortunate” in that the amendment was not in force until some months after the offense was committed.
