SEEK NEW TRIAL FOR TONY PALMO Counsel Charge That His Con viction Was Due to Errors of Court at Trial Wllkes-Ilarrc, Sept. 5. Tony Palmo, convicted of first degree mur der for cutting the throat of Benny Myskowskl at Plains in the night of January 27, sat it. court yesterday for over three hours while his coun sel, Joseph F. Cohan and A. P. Con ni(T, argued and pleaded reasons for a new trial in his behalf. The pris oner, while thinner and paler look ing than at the time of his trial, seemed bouyed with the hope that he would receive another chance for his life. Judges Fuller, Garman, Strauss and Woodward were on the bench and followed the arguments care fully, at t times interrupting the at torneys to ask questions. At ad journment they took the case under advisement and will announce their decision later. The attorneys for the defendant are hopeful that a new trial will be awarded. Assistant District Attorney Arthur B. Turner represented the Common wealth in opposing a new trial. He argued that the conviction of Pal mo was a just and legal verdict, that the defendant had had a fair and impartial trial and that there are no errors that should set aside the ver dict of the jury. I Palmo was convicted principally on circumstantial evidence, after a sensational trial lasting two weeks the verdict being returned on April 18. He was charged with entering the home of Myskowskl at midnight and slashing the latter's throat as Myskowski lay asleep by the side of j his wife. The motive charged was , jealousy and it was proven at the trial how Palmo followed Mrs. Myskowski to Heading and Atlantic : City, lived with her, quarreled with her husband and made threats. Although no person saw him en ter or leave the house, his conviction was brought about mainly by the burned remnant of a razor found in an ash pile in rear of the house where he boarded, and by a piece of blood stained feather, similar to the kind in the pillow that was slash ed open when the murder was com mitted, found attached to a blood stained handkerchief in his pocket. The Commonwealth has all the ex hibits, blood stained bed, etc., should a new trial be granted. HAS VISION Chamborsburg, Pa., Sept. 5.—P. j A.
