SAN RAFAEL, Nov. 2O.-After being con-
fined in the County Jail for fifty-four days
on charge of sending weapons into San
Quentin Prison, with intent TO aid prisoners
to escape, S. w. Sullivan was to-day dis
charged from custody by order of Superior
Judge Angelotti. Sullivan was tried some
weeks ago on this charge, but the jury
could not agree, and after being out thir-
teen hours were discharged. The popular
verdict was that Sullivan was innocent Of
the charge, and great surprise was mani
Tested when the jury failed to agree. The
San Quentin officials went on still hunt
for more evidence, but were unsuccessful in
this line. They claimed they had made im-
pOrtant discoveries, but they were never
made known. This morning District AttOr-
ney CochTane made a motion in the Supe-
ri0r Court that Sullivan be released on his
own recognizance and that the case be con-
tinued over the term. Sullivan was re-
leased and this afternoon again appeared
with his attorney, 7. j. Crowley, who
asked that the case be dismissed, as
there was no evidence and a conviction
could never be secured. District Attorney
Cochrsne admitted that there was no
evidence 1urther than that aduuced at
the trial, and claimed that Sullivan's re-
lease on his own recOgnizance was for the
present sufficient, and that he would move
TO dismiss the case III January. The Court
held that il being conceded by the District
Attorney that there was no evidence in adj
dltiUn 10 that adduced on the former trial,
the case was one that should be dismissed,
especially in view of the fact that accord
ing to the District Attorneys statement 1t
had been a>certaintd since the last trial of
the case that the testimony introduced by
defendant on that trial, to the effect that
defendant WAS on August 10 and 20 1891. in
Santa Cruz County, aud not either in San
Francisco or Marin. was true. The Court
thereupOn entered an order of dismissal.
The dismissal meets with general satsfac-
ton, as the case. II again brought to trial,
would undoubtedly end IN an acquittal, and
the county would have several thousand
dollars less III The treasury.
