In the city court yesterday morning the cases against Samuel G. Parker and his wife, Georgie I. Parker, were again up for trial and the taking of testimony in the cases was continued. The Incident of the day's trial of the case was a motion made by David E. Fitzgerald, counsel for Mrs. Parker, that she be discharged on aU the counts of forgery but two on the ground that there was no evidence to enow that she had had anything to do with the forger ies except her alleged statements made just prior to and after her arrest. He claimed that the statements were made by her in the hope of shielding her hus band In the metter, ehe thinking that if she took all the blame in the cases on herself her folks would Intercede in her behalf. -'. ' - This Btep by Mr. Fitzgerald indicates that the woman has abandoned her original idea of trying to shield her hus band by declaring, as she did at first, that she committed the forgeries, trust ing to the influence she had with her family to protect them both when the casea Anally came to trial. Now she is simply trying to save herself by endeav oring to make the charges against, her self as light as possible. Mrs. Parker was called to the stand bv her husband's counsel. She said: "I knew nothing about the forgeries till my husband came from New York last January. I had nothing to do with uttering the forgeries. I have made some statements admitting that I sign ed the forged orders. I did so because the suspicion of the thing was on my husband and I thought I could save him. I thought I had influence enough with my people to protect him in case trouble should come." Coming to the stolen Fineout deeds on which Parker raised $800, the witness said ehe had known Fineout for years. H was a frigjjd of the family. She claimed to know nothing about the Fineout matter. Her people cast sus picion upon them (the Parkers), the xuui.uaxv utvu jju heel and spring heel, 30c SHOES. 780 Chapel St. !---- else to throw suspicion on. Samuel G. Parker, the forger husband, was then called to the stand and In re sponse to Lawyer Ullman's questions emphatically declared that his wife did not forge any of the orders in question nor help hiin in any way. The defense rested and adjournment was taken to a week from this after noon for arguments. The prisoners went back to jail. SUIT AGAINST L. G. HOADLEY. Suit was brought yesterday by Law yer J. P.
