DAVID S. Terry, was heard in the Fourth Dis
trict Court yesterday forenoon. The grounds
urged by counsel for defendant, for the trans
mssioa uf the indictment to the Fourth District
Court, were, thut tue crime charged was muir
der, and thc Court Of Sessions has no jurisdic4
tion Of murder cases. District Attorney Browne
contended that dueIin6 was d statutary c,lmc,
and that the statute gave the Court Of Sessions
Jurisdiction. Judge lager denied the motion
Of the argument, and IN so doing adopted the
views Of the District Lttorney, that ''the crime
Of fighting duel' was neither murder nor man
slaughter, the only crimes the District Court
has coguHance of. The case goesat once to The
Supreme Court, having been appealed W Terry.
