A large cosmopolitan crowd was present
in tbe lIenrico County Court yesterday
morning at the preliminary hearing OF the
case of Thomas sully (colored), charged
with the murder Of Sammox Rossdeitcher'
, short time after noon sully was brought
IN nv Deputy-Sheriff Neurobr and the Court
opened. sully even looks better now than
no did when he was arrested, and looked Oh
the proceedings with no more than usuaI
interest. ma. alton
Mr., Thomas. the Commonwealth attor-
nev stated TO Squire Atlee, who was presiu-
ing. that the doctors who were WITNESSES III
tho case were not then present lhey were
;mnortant witnesses, lnasmuch as II was
necessary 10 prove that murder hau Ueen
committed. lie believed, however, that tne
counsel for the accused had course VI ac-
ton that would render the presence Vi '"0
doctors unnecessary. ,
lanes HAYES (colored). sully's counsel,
stated that the defense waived AN eXalnina-
strued as TO mean an admission OF the gulit
of his client, but that his associate counsei,
MIR +. h. slater. was in New 0rk; that
he 1Uaves) expected to leave shortly on
two-wccks' trip. such being the case, "a
short continuance Of the case would 40
them no good. ~. o..,,i-
'Suuire Alice agreed 10 waive the eXaml-
nation. and the witnesses were recOghileu
for their appearance before the grand jury
on September Sth.
THE WITNESSES.
Among the witnesses were Jacob feitig,
Thornton Adams, Hugh l.. DAVIS, keeper Ol
the Uenrico pOOrhouse; Dr. Marcy, inc
physican at the poorhOuse VINO aliehueu
Rossieitcher; :. stern, pawnDrOker; bainIe
Brill. and i. II. Sutherland, defective;
Daniel. alias Gaines, the witness arles'eu
a few days ago. --..,;,od
After the Witnesses had been recoSIiHcu'
HAYES submitted a motion for bail. III was
refused bv the magistrate on the same
Grounds as the bail was refused Adams
and the LAWYER stated that he would Apply
10 Judge Minor tor writ OF haDeas corpus
Sullv was then taken TO the magistrate
office. where he had talk with his father
and mother r..,..o
Uayes Immediately applied to Judge
Minor. The latter stated that II the Iolh-
monwealth's Attorney would allow pan ne
would bail sully for 1000; that II the COM
monwealth's Attorney opposed the Daliing
of sully it would be necessary Tor MN 10
hear the evidence before IL could be deter
mined whether or not bail would be allowed.
HAYES left the courthouse TO find bonds
men. but up TO last night he had not sue
ceeded.
WORTHLESS BOND.
Apropos Of bail bonds, it has been as
covered within the past two days that Eel
tig's bond is of very little account, except
that the men giving the bond would ieel II
a moral obligation 10 pay the Common
wealth if Feitig were to leave the state.
The magistrate who balled him had no
right bv the Code to do such an act, and
literally Feitig could Jump his baiI' and
place the officials in a pretty dilemma.
DR.. Chalkley was expected nome last
night. and Sheriff Southwark VIII have MN
make an examination of the bloody chips
taken from Mr.. Feiug's on Wednesday. Dr.
Chalkley is virtually the county physician,
as ne attends the inmates of the jail.
MIR. Harris Jacobs and several other
friends are in New York endeayoring TO
collect funds to be used in employing coun-
sci 10 assist Mr.. Thomas III the prosecu-
tiOn.
