BiacUwell and J. C. Williams, janitors at police head u.uarters the former accused of lock ing a woman in a cell set aside for men in city jail and the latter of lock ing a man in Ihe cell occupied by the woman on the night of January 25. Lizzie Morris, the woman, testified, as did a ntimher of police officers with regard to the occurrence and the ar rangement of the cells. The defense offered no testimony, nor was cross examination ot the woman under taken. The case was apparently de cided on Ihe theory that the state iaw regarding common jails did not apply to the city jail, and that separate prisons for male and female prisoners had not been provided as required by the city code. The Morris woman teslilled that she was locked in the same cell with Mar anville on the night of January 25 for several hours. Testimony of officers corroborated this, except for the ex tent of time that the two had remained together In the cell. This evidence was not rebutted by the defense. Evidence given by Chief Loralnao and Sergeant fonder was to the effect that there had been a custom observed to lock white Women" prisoners in cells down stairs and they were never luken to the upper tier of cells except when all ihe lower ones were full. Xo writ ten order as 'to a. specified separation ot celts had ever been made, they swore. 8. Q. Bernard, the city prosecutor, who conducted the case, argued for the application of the section of Ihe North Carolina code, which provides that Ihe common jails of Ihe several counties of the state shall have live separate and distinct apartments for the separation of prisoners'. One for white wom?n, one for white men, one for colored women, one for colored men, and one for other prisoners. Fol lowing the disclosures made concern ing this case. Chief laminae issued an order complying with this statute rela tive to the separation of prisoners in the city jail. This argument was met by the de fense, represented by Fortune & Rob erts and J. Frailer Glenn by the argu ment that the Supreme court of North Carolina has decided that the cities of the state shall have control of their jails and therefore the section cited does not apply to this case. It was further argued that a section of Bourne's code provides that the city shall provide a separate prison for women, to be in charge of some repu table woman; that this arrangement has never been provided, for Which the two men indicted could not be held responsible.
