COURT ITEMs.-The case of Gin Yuen.
charged with an assault to murder, is drag
ging along in Department One of the Su-
perior Court, and the indications are that it
will occupy one or two days more the tax
ing of testimony through an Interpreter
being slow work, especially when the wit
nesses do not care to be very explicit.
The case of NJ. Zeller, for murder, in kill
ing Henry Harris was on the calendar for
trial yesterday, but the Gin Yuen case was
in the way. Grove L. Johnson, attorney
for the defendant, yesterday moved for a
continuance for the term, owing to the fact
that A. Paquin, an important witness, is
sick and unable to appear in Court. The
motion will be argued this morning. The
cases of Lawrence Long and Mary Long.
alias Mary Lambert, indicted for an assault
to commit murder, were continued for the
term by consent.
