The('rOney Jury.

One of the jurors in the Croney case
was seen last evening, and after consld-
cradle hesitation, was finally persuaded
to disclose some Of the secrets OF the do
ings of the jurors after they retired to
their room. He said the accounts
which have been published in some Of
the papers were incorrect, and must
either have originated in the imagna-
liOn Of the writer's. or from incorrect
statements given to them. There was Il
ballot taken on Thursday night before
the charge was delivered by the Chief
Justice, which stood, not guilty, 10;
manslaughter, l, and who thought the
prisoner should be punished in some
way. After they were charged on Fri
day, up to the time Of their discharge,
there were Is ballots taken, and on the
last ballot they stood, not guilty 8, man
slaughter 9, murder in the second de-
gree 3. He also said that in the whole
Ii ballots there was very little varia-
tion from the one given in detail. The
Jury considered the charge OF the Chief
Justice rs unfair to the prisoner, and
from the first the greater part resolved
not to be influenced by it, but to be
guided by the evidence. This gentle
man also said that he considered the
charge that had been advanced in some
quarters that they had been influenced
10y politics, as very unjust and uncall-
ed for, as some of the Democrats on the
jury voted for acquitta on every ballot,
while one Republican stood out, from
first to last for murder in the second
degree. He thinks the difference OF
opinion was honest on the part of every
man, although he had no hesitation in
saying that before the charge was de-
livered, one man had expressed the
opinion that Croncy ought to be hung.

DIsORDERLY CONDUCT.
A Man Threatens 10 XIII q Woman
with an Axe.

Last evening James Walsh was
before the Mayor charged with disor-
derly conduct by Mrs. Nellie mellow.
an. The complainant testified that she
resides at No. 800 East Thirteenth
street, and yesterday morning after she
had given her husband his breakfast,
and he had started for his work, she
went up stairs and laid down again.
Shortly before o'clock, she heard some
one come in, and upon coming down
stairs found Walsh, who 1t appears has
been keeping company for the past
three mOnths.with a young girl named
Annie White, who boards with her.
Walsh was under the influence of
liquor, and asked with an oath where
Annie was, and upon Mrs. McGowan
replying that she was sick in bed,
from beating he had given her ON
Saturday night, swore that he would
kill her, and started out in the yard for
an axe. Mrs. McGOwan locked the
back door, and Walsh broke it in with
the axe, and going up to Annie's room
stood over her, with the axe in his
hand, threatning to take her life. Mrs.
McGDwan sent for assistance, and Off
Ger Walker, who was in the vicinity,
came and arrested Walsh. While the
complainant was giving her testimony,
she was interrupted by Il friend of the
prisoner named DoLnelly, who was or
dered by the Mayor to keep quiet. In
less than a minute he interrupted her
again, when the Mayor ordered him to
be locked up, and he was conducted to
the cells by two officers.
Annie White testified to the fact of
the prisoner standing over her with the
uplifted axe, but she was evidently n
very unwilling witness. The Mayor
asked Mrs. MCGOWAN if she was afraid
ofthe prisoner, and upon her answering
in the affirmative, Walsh remarked,
{" you would not be afraid of "A five cent
drink, if it was offered to YOU" The
Mayor imposed fine of $40 and costs,
and ordered him to furnish bail in the
sum of 5000 to keep the peace. "That's
all right, said the prisoner, and the
Mayor answered, "you'll find it 80, be-
fore you get through.
