Photostatic copies were made for use by the court in the conduct of the case when- a new trial is request ed. Judge W. C. (Buck) Harris of Raleigh is sclioduled* to preside at the term ot court here next week. Upon being advised of the newly- found evidence in the case. Gover nor Gregg Cherry ordered the execu tion of Phillips held up. The latest execution date was set as May 9. Contention of the defense that Mrs. Phllll'm took her own life will be renewed, and ‘the ‘‘suicide" note will bo relied upon to prove that contention. If Phillips is granted a new tilal, it will probably be at next SepteiU* l)or term that it will come before the court. Next week's term ts for Hie trial of criminal cases, but neither Solicitor Hooks nor the counsel for ihe defense will hardly want to take it UP tlien. Considerable time Is vetiulrod to piepare for trial a case of such Importance. Next week's term is the last criminal session be fore the first week in September.
