for Killing a Cincinnati Man.

Last evening, two Italians, giving their names
as Dominick Jendo and Dominick Depano were
arrested on the charge of vagrancy. An Italian
of this city, who was at the station-house when
the prisoners were brought in, thought he rec
ognized Jendo as an italian with whom he was
acquainted in Cincinnati. why're he went by the
name of Kerino, and sold knick-knacks about
the market Kerino was charged with the kill
ing of man by the name of Hannigan about
year ago Kerino escaped the nightof the murder
and nothing had been heard or seen of him since
unless Jendo is the same person under an as
sumed name, as is strongly insisted upon by the
Italian, who says he recognizes him as the same
man. Jendo had in his possession when arrested

ALFRED IiRRnnIISON's BOND.
How His Release Was Secured After His Re-
fasal to Write His Signature.

Referring to the manner Of Alfred HarrisQn's
release from custody, night before last, on a
bond not signed by him as principal, lawyer of
considerable criminal practice said the advice
given by Harrison's attorneys was the worst
xnisstep they had taken throughout the whole
affair. "If he had been my Client" continued
iihe lawyer. "such advice would hare been far
away from my purpose il looked solely to ev-
cry little advantage I could gain in his behalf.

est attention. 1t was bad move"
Mr Walls. who is presumably Harrison's lead
err in the defense, said his client did not refuse
to sign the bond. ~ did the refusing" he went
thought the bond sufficiently good without his
signature The insisting that he should
sign IL was only another scheme on
the part of the prosecution to entrap Harrison
into giving specimen Of his handwriting There
are number of decisions that hold a bond
good without the signature of the principal.
The money value was on it in the names of Sui
Myan and Bernhamer and that is all that is
necessary to make the security valid"
what part did Ross Clark play in this AFFAIR."
~ went over to the Jail to see Sheriff Carter
and induce him to accept the bond, as he had a
right to do. could not find him, and then went
10 the Denison House, where l understood he
could possibly be found. He was not there, but
ran across Ross Clark and asked him to APP
prove rha bond as judge of the Criminal Court
He refused, not from any doubt as to
his power, but through dislike to take
such action when the case was yet far
away from his judicial cognizance. I then re-
ferred him to decisions in Blackford and author
ities la Bicknells Practice, where it is stated
bond is not invalid through an error in form,
and further, that the absence of the prisoners

value. requested him TO go to the Jail and
