NEw YoRK. Aug. 2-When John l.
Sullivan appeared at the Office of Dis
trict Attorney Fellows, after spending
the night in the cell at police head
quarters once occupied by the spook
priestess. Ann O'Delia Solomon Diss
Debar. he was accompanied by his faith
ful friend Muldoon and the officer from
Mississippi.
John was unconcerned,n said Null
doom to . reporter. We've been ex-
pecting this for some time, and are just
as glad to have it come and get through
with it. At will be time or money. and,
of course. we'd rather have it money.
/ spent the morning with him, and he
isn't broken up over the thing. He was
talking Just as usual.
John l.. leaned little stiffiy against
library OF law books, and occasionally
caressed his dimpled chin with a hand
that would have terrified Achilles. He
talked in an undertone to Charley John
som while Clerk McDonough and Col.
Fellows examined the document which
was giving John L. all the trouble.
Then Col. Fellows stepped modestly up
to the giant In the pepper and salt suit
and remarked: "You have simply rot 10
be identified That Is the only n0int IN
question whether you are John l.. Sui
livan." The great and only John looked
slightly ratified az the idea that he could
be anybody else, or that there could be
any doubt about the great and only.
Then he said: II expect to meet my
counsel, De Lancey Nicoll, here. He
will know what to do"
Taken TO Court.
De Lancey NicolI soon appeared, and
after consultation decided to make a
fight i'm the courts here. With District
Attorney Fellows, Assistant District At
torney Harry Macdona, John +. Sulli-
van and Deputy Sheriff Charles, and
followed by thousands Of persons, they
wended their way to the big court
house, where the principals Of the affair
proceeded at once to supreme court
chambers, where Judge Morgan O'Brien
is sitting.
The court room was soon filed to the
doors, and an extra force Of police was
necessary to keep the crowds from push
ing into the building.
Assistant District Attorney Macedonia
stated the proceedings taken by Gov
ernor Lowry, as well IS the indorse-
ment by Governor Hill, and handed up
the papers.
De Lancey NIcoIl's Plea.
De Lancey NicolI said that Sullivan
did not intend to deny that he was the
person mentioned in the feuuisition
paper. He had intended, after the ex-
hibition tonight 20 go back 70 Missis-
sippi and surrender himself to the au-
thOrities. He was not aware until after
the fight that he had broken the law.
When the fight was arranged the bat
tie ground was chosen in the state Of
Louisiana and it was not till the morn
ing of the day on which the fight took
place that he was aware that it was 20
come of in Mississippi. Sullivan had
to fight, or refuse and suffer himself to
be charged with poltroonery.
Sullivan Goes Back.
Sullivan then stepped up to the table
and in the presence Of the Judge and
Detective Adams he signed waiver and
was at once handed over to Deputy
Sheriff Childs.
The party started from Jersey City at
$3.50 o'clock last night ON the PennsyIva-
mia road, and will go right through to
Columbia, Marion county, Miss.
1t is expected that Sullivan will be
arraigned in court on Monday next.
