How GLEN CANE oUr.-Relstive to
the shooting ARRAY on New Years
night among the c%outrabands at q col.
ored ball in Carson, of which we had an
item in yesterdays News, an examina-
ton of Glen Berry, alleged to have
done the shooting, was held before
Justice McKeeby, of Carson, yesterday.
According to the report of the trial in
to-day's Appeal the aspect Of things is a
little mixed. Some Of the witnesses
swear positively that they stood close
to Clcm, saw the pistol in his hand, and
saw him shoot it. They also heard him
at the same time say, take that, damn
YOU" Others swear quite MS positively
that they had Clem by the arms
holding him when tho pistol was
fired, and that it was fred by ono n
from behind. Pretty much all agree
that Glenn misbehaved himself at the
party, and one witness states that Glenn
said he was going down there to " bust
the devil out" Tho single barrelled
pistol, however, which was picked up
as Clem's, proved to be too small for
the ball which was extracted from
Nahl's shoulder, aud vas loaded when
picked up. The Court thought advisa-
BILE to put Glenn under $1,000 bonds to
appear before tho Grand Jury.
