Oudger yesterday afternoon to hear the trial of Will Gasperaoon, Tom Praytor, colored, and Wood Hyatt, colored, who are charged with the killing of Aaron Walker, on, July 1, t.iat it wa de cvtdod to move the case to the police court room, where for two .hour and a half the evidence 'In the case of the slate against Wood Hyatt was heard. Th. court room waa filled with people anxious to 'hear the trials und moat of them stayed until court waa dismissed. The state wa represented by W. P. Brown; Well and Hwaln appeared for Gaepereon; H. It. Alston, colored, wa Praytor' attorney, and G. Spear Reynold represented Hyatt. After hearing th greaUr part of the evidence, tie cases were continued un til next Haturday at 10 o'clock, the negroe having bfn .held without ball and the white man, witin the permis sion of Mr. Brown, having been re leased on his own cognlssnce. Trtie attorney for the state asked for a continuance upon the grounds Uhat he desired the' testimony of the car Inapector who had Inspected fie trsln which is alleged to have killed Walker and the fact that he had been unable to examine Robert Praytor, six-year-old son of one of bh defen dant. . However, he agreed to have the case against Hyatt called if Mr. Reynolds would admit for trat trial that the car Inspector would swear that the train had no blood on It. A number of witnesses for the state wier examined, the majority of whom wor that Hyatt had told them siat he had no Idea that the train killed th deceased although ha knew who did do It. Ths Praytor boy waa greatly excited and It was contended by Mr. Brown Mat i had baon beat en by his parent and his life threat ened if he should tell what h knew. He stated that he had ssen the mur. der committed and the body lain on Wte track by, h three men charged with the commission of i.h.e crime, al though a few. minutes after he mad (hat statement h declared that he knew nothing about the affair but ihad r been; told ayouj It by DllHs Lane, oi west Asuieviue. In view of tho fact that Lance was not at the trial It was decided to postpone 1,t until, next Saturday, al though tahca will b called upon to testify in titu court f - Magistrate Oudger this afternoon at o'clock. It was declared uhat the1 rtegro boy had made certain damaging statement to Solicitor Reynolds against the d ft fon dant although when he was aaked about them, he cried and staled that he had only told what had been told to him by Lance. Tth attorney for she state Insisted that the boy be takn from the cus tody of the parent and placed In the (hands of some disinterested per son. Tl!il course was taken, the sheriff having been instructed to turn the boy over to Martha Johnson, who conducts a boarding house for colored people, with the Instructions that s'.ie allow no one to talk to the boy and keep ihim away from hia parents. Tho cases were continued until next Saturday, when an effort will be mad to finish, the trials. A large number of witnesses have been summoned to appear In th cases and thiy promise to be most Interesting. It will be recalled that Aaron Walk er was found on toe railroad track near the Murphy Junction on the night of July 1, 'Ma head having been al most severed from his body and hp jaw having been crushed. It was thought Uhat he had been killed by the tram, although since that time Hie authorities have been working on the case and the three men wre arrested a few day ago charged wlt'i laying the man. r convention In New Orleans, and lis been the guest of his. brother, Mr. A. 3.
