NEW YORK, August 31.-The Cunar-
der Etruria came into port yesterday
with eight seamen in the hospital. One
man had been killed on the voyage
from Liverpool and buried at sea, and
several of the survivors are in a preca-
rious state.
Eight seamen and a boatswain's mate
had the forecastle watch early on Tues
day morning last, at 6:SO o'clock. The
Etruria shipped a big sea forward,
which knocked all the nine men off
their feet, and swept them across the
deck and against the deck rails, Grip
pling or otherwise disabling all OF them.
On board the Etruria they think that
il was something like a tidal wave-per-
haps one OF the cumulative waves that
sometimes rise by the coincidence OF a
number Of lesser waves.
The sea Just before the accident was
as il usually is in August under the In
fuence of brisk westerly breeze. The
first and only warning Of the nearness
of the lowering surge was the prellmi-
nary plunge Of the big ships bows into
the trough ahead of the wave. The
Etruria's iib was set and just before the
wave struck her the wind hauled to the
north and the sail began to shiver.
Chief Officer Carbine, who was on the
bridge, shouted to the fOrecastle:
'Haul over the jib sheet"
Ii was while this order was being ex-
ecuted that the wall Of water tumbled
aboard. II it had come over either bow
instead Of directly over the stem, most
of the men would have been washed
into the sea. The wave seemed to tower
az least ten feet over the deck.
Ii was all over in moment, and the
men lay where they had fallen. Help
was instantly at hand. DR.. Pointon,
the ships surgeon, pwas asleep in his
room aft when a sailor pushed In his
door, shook him into Wakefulness and
cried: We've shipped a sea and the
watch is damaged"
DR.. POnton found the nine men ly-
ing about the deck, some Of them cry
ing with pain. One Of the injured men,
jeremiah Harrington, died at 11:15.
He had a compound fracture Of the |
skull, broken ribs and broken jaw. He |
was 30 years old, and left wife in Liv-
erDOOl.

WILLIS LIBERATED
and Morris Davis Indicted-SensatiOnal
Turn In the Watts Murder.

and Morris Davis Indicted-Sensational
Turn In the Watts Murder.
HUNTINGTON, August 3O.-Quite a
sensational turn in the Ross Watts
murder case took place yesterday even
ing. When the grad jury returned a
list OF indictments there was one against
Morris Davis, charged with the murder
OF Watts 1t was also a surprise to
some to know that Curt Willis, who
had been confined IN Jail for months
past on the same charge, n await the
action of the grand jury, was not IN
dicted.
Davis was at once arrested and taken
to Jail. Special Judge Marcum fixed
his bond at So, 900 for his appearance at
court this morning. James McLaugh-
lin, J, L. Fisher, G. w. Campbell and
John II. Holt became his bOndsmen
and he was released.
Willis was liberated as soon as the
grand Jury had concluded its labors and
failed TO find an indictment against him.
He was taken into court, however, and
his personal recogniZance taken for his
=
next Monday morning.
There was not 1.-THE Of evidence pro-
duced before the grand jury to show
that Willis was guilty of the crime for
which he has so long been held in dreary
confinement. A large number Of wit
nesses we're examined, but all the .evi-
denCe was damaging TO Davis and an
indictment was returned against him.
This case needs not to be extensively
reviewed. Almost everybody In this
community knows that few months
ago Ross Watts, q young man, lost his
life at or near the shanty boat OF Daisy
Mathews. The body was afterward
found floating in the river at Catletts-
burg. Davis was arrested and a hear
ing begun, which was not concluded on
account of a confession Willis is alleged
10 have made. Davis was liberated
aud Willis was jailed. The action OF
the grand jury shows mistake, prooa-
bly,, in the procedure of that time.
Davis appeared in court this morning
and an extension Of the bond was made
till Monday morning, when this IA
nous murder case will be tried.
