MIR. F0Ls T4KES THE STAND.
And Testifies TO His Side of Several
NaNy Castle, gtOrips.

Editor Gazette d; Journal: The New Castle
correspondent of the Euening journal has
been writing letter after letter commenting
on red-beaded women and my driving gray
horses and my being arrested In Whining
ton for cruelty to animals.
Now the facts Of the case OF my being ar.
rested in Wilmington are these: 1 hired a
horse to John Tobin to move his family to
Wilmington. The horse was IN good con-
ditlon when I hired him, but NIr. Tobin
drove that horse to and fro to Wilmington
all night long, and when he WIS through
with him, he left him standing from O'Clock
III the morning until IL O'Clock noon, in
the midst OF terrible beating storm. and
the horse was locked up and l was fined
$40 and costs. Now l would like to know
how much justice there was In that?
Now the facts In regard tO my having
Tommy Lancaster arrested for starting my
horse are these: was down on the wharf
loading my wagon when my horse was
started up several times by Tommy Lam
caster, who was In the company of two
Wilmington police officers and some ladies,
and boy-llke he wanted to show of before
them. When cautioned him about start
ing the horse, he threw his head back aud
laughed and started him up again, and
had him arrested for malicious mischief
and taken before Mayor Hanson who, after
hearing all testimony In the case. fined him
SIS and co 'ts, and the general opinion of
the town Is that he served Tommy exactly
right.
Tommy says Mayor Hanson protects
those whom he sells horses to. It Ia true
bought this horse from Mayor Hanson and
am very we'll pleased with him, as he Is n
young, strong and a willing hor.e, but he
does not care to be tIified with by a l6 year
old boy.
II Tommy Lancaster's father would look
after him little closer, as a boy OF his age
should be, think It may save MIN many
hesrtaohe In the future, and I, 3 seems to
be- the sentiment OF this community rather
than writing trashy letters encouraging the
boy IN interfering and insulting men Old
enough to be his father.
Mr.. Lancaster, In his letter to the Eoening
Journal last evening, said that Mayor
Hanson imposed tho heaviest fne possible
In his anxiety to protect me, because
bought tbs horse from him. Taking MIR.
Lancaster's argument for 1t, maybe MIR.
Lancaster's reason for apologlzlng TO Mr.
Blackburn alone is due to the fact that he
rents Mr.. Lancaster's stable.
he says the mayor can make out to read
law, but he ia incapable OF constraing H.,
Perhaps that Is due to the fact that the
mayors construction OF the law in this case
cost Tommy $500. /. A. FoLs.

PHTLApRLpHfA, Aug, 30,-A special to the
Public Ledger says: DR.. Crosby, the physi-
clan VINO IL attending Mary Ann Donnelly,
the nurse stabbed by Mrs. Robert Ray Ham
ilton, submitted report TO Prosecutor Of
Pleas Thompson to- day, on the strength of
which 1t was thought Mrs. Bamilton's re.
lease on bail would ba secured, but the
prosecutor OF the pleAs took exception TO
the language Of DR.. Orosby'S certificate,
saying that It was not eouched 10 suffi
ciently positive language to allow OF bail
being granted.
Ths certificate stated that Nurse Donnelly
was reasonably" out OF danger, and to
that uncertain word the prosecutor TOOK
exceptions and declared that 1t would be
impossible for Mrs Hamilton to get out on
ball on the strength OF such q certificate.
His next move was to notify the county
physician, Or. E. A. Reilly, to make an ex-
animation OF Mrs, Donnelly and give hts
official opinion a. 10 her condition. Then,
as a matter OF professional courtesy, DR..
Reilly refused to visit the sick cham Der un-
less he WAS accompanied by the woman's
physician. The two doctors did NOT come
together, and consequently the official visit
was not made. Late Tonight, however, at
the earnest solicitation OF the prosecutor,
DR.. Reily visited the bedside of the
wounded nurse alone, and his official re-
port will ha made public tomorrow.

Mary DonNeiiY LIKELY TO Recover.
ATLANTIC 0STx, N. j., Aug. 2s.--Mrs.
Mary Donneify, the nurse who was
stabbed, it is charged, by Mrs. Robert
Ray Hamilton, is re5Stng quietly to-day,
and the physician attending her says her
ultimate recovery ia assureGh provided no
new complication arises. Me; Hamilton
Nss in close consultation with iNs lawyer
the greater part of the morning. Inc
attorney said this afternoon that me
favorable condition Of the nurse would
lead him to seek to have Mrs. Hamilton
released on bail. Mrs. Hamilton's first
night in prison was passed in the attic
part OF the sheriff's residence, where she
will be confined until court convenes or
the nurse is convalesoent and bail is
accepted. There is much speculation as
to the amount of bail that would be re-
quired, but no one doubts that it would
be Immediately furnished, whatever the
amount. Hamilton spent four hours with
his wife to-day, and much affection was
displayed on both eides. Mrs. Swinton
and her son, Joshua Mann, are still here,
but can rarely be seen. The Noll cottage
is still under police surveillance.

ATLANTIC OrrY, N j., Aug, 29.-The
interest in the Hamilton stabbing case
to day hinged entirely on the probability
of Mrs. Hamilton being liberated on
bail, and DR.. Crosby, the attending ply
Sieiau, was, therefore, q conspicuous
figure in the matter, for his certificate
thai the wounded woman was out Of dan
ger would make the admission of Mrs.
Hamilton to bail foregone conclusion.
Mrs. Donnelly is reported as being in an
improved condition to day.
There were several important develop.
ments in this case to-day, one of which
was the departure of Mr.. Hamilton this
morning. He left on the 8 O'Clock ex-
press, and it was said that he was going
through to New York aud would probably
not return until tomorrow.
A New York special says: Now that
the report from Atlantic City is that the
woman Donnslly is getting better it is
stated here that all the social and politi-
cal spuIl" that can be exercised by As
ssmblyman Robert Ray Hamilton and
his friends will be called into play to
prevent Jersey justice from being melted
ont to his wife for the murderous assault
she committed. The political influence
will come from Senator William J. Sewell,
the Republican leader in New Jersey,
who is personal friend OF Assemblyman
Hamilton. .s. 5rz..
