Sarah AIthea Hill Terry ACCUSES him
of Completely In the shooting.
Judge Terry's Record as a 0on'eder'
ate and His Wife's as Filr.
The Characters Brought to PromI-
nence BY the Tragedy.

STOCKTON. Cal, August 15.-A warrant
was issued today for the arrest OIL justice S.
j. Field on complaint of Mrs. Sarah Terry,
who charges him with comphcily IN the
killing of her husband. Sheriff Cunning
ham left for San Francisco this afternoon to
arrest Justice Field.
The funeral of Terry will be held on Fri
day. The body is still at the morgue Mrs.
Terry has not left 1t at any time.
SAN FRANCISCO. August lo.-Justice
Field resumed his judicial duties today and
sat in the Circuit Court with Judge Sawyer
and Judge ID. j. Brewer of Kansas. He is
still constantly under the protection OF dep.
uty marshal, as is also Judge SAWYER.
Nagle says he Is confident that Terry drew
back his hand after striking Field for the
purpose of pulling from his coat knife. He
once made an affidavit that he always went
armed. The theory of those about the
United States marshaPs office is that Mrs
Terry, when she threw herself on her hus-
bands body, took the weapon from him
When the body was searched no weapon
was found.
The Inquest.
STOCKTON, CAL. August 15.-At an inquest
last night over the body of Judge david
Terry no new facts developed. A number Of
witnesses were examined. among them being
the proprietors of the hotel at Lathrop. The
coroner's jury returned a verdict that the
deceased came to his death from the effects
of gunshot wounds inflicted by David Nagle
at Lathrop.
The body was brought here last night
Mrs. Terry rode in the express car with the
remains, accompanied by several friends OF
the deceased. When the body was taken fl
the car she followed and rode with it in an
express wagon to the morgue. She was dis
tressed, and said it was a most cowardly
murder of an unarmed man. There is con-
siderable excitement in this city over the
affair. The general belief is that Nagle will
not be punished, as he was in the act of pro-
tecting Justice Field from assault.
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 5.-A passenger
who was on the train at Lathrop says that
when be heard the shooting he rushed out
of the car and saw Mrs. Terry with satchel
in her hand. She was trying to open it and
he took it from her. She tried to gain posses.
sion Of it again, but failed When the
satchel was opened afterwards pistol was
found in it.

CUMBERLAND. Mp, Ang. 3d. Forty 1--we
men We're at work In the Allegheny mine,
10 miles from Cumberland belonging TO the
Consolidated Coal Company this morning
when the wall between II and the adjoining
worked.out Boston or .Etna mine gave way
from pressure OF water In the old mine. l;
flowed steadily In strong stream over
four feet In depth, and there were grave
fears for the men inside. Hours passed be-
fore any relief could be obtained by the men
inside, and outside the deep concern OF
wives, children and loving friends was de-
picted on every countenAnce. Finally the
water had subsidized to depth that would
allow entrance to the mius, and ii. p.
Meem, the mining engineer OF the com.
pany, started In alone In search of the i'm
prlsoned men, none of the outsiders being
willing 10 venture. After wading through
the water, against strong current, up to
his armpits and over an Irregular bed 800
feat, he came to u group OF 43 men, who
told him Of man and boy being IL "a dis
tlnt room. No one would go 10 their relief.
He started on anew, aud, hnding the two,
placed the boy on his shoulders, and bid
ding the man to follow, turned back aud
Joined the gtoup. The men seemed terrified
and without judgment. They declined to
SO forward until after much persuasion,
and then only after Meem had taken tine
lead with the child on his shoulders. For
tunatey all escaped. The water vas an
accumulation OF years, and is still flowing
at considerable depth, though with less
force.
The loss TO tho coal company Is said TO
be heavy. The full extent will not be aseer-
tanned until after the water has entirely
subsidized.
Mems courage In entering the mine, his
young spirit and the hope aud encourage
ment be gave the entombed minsrs, when
he met them, may be justly considered
their salvation. He is certainly the hene-
that would be griet stricken, where widows
tears and orphans cries would prevail IN
place OF joyfu and thankful hearts.
