a dozen Italians were walking down the

the ire of the saloon man was so aroused
that he threw the tray at the crowd, and
simultaneously the whole crowd sailed in

Amelia Gehring, the maid who was re-
Gently tried and acquitted ON charge of
robbing her employer, Mrs. Amy Gillig,
received something of setback in the
Superior Court yesterday.
Shortly after Miss Gehring, through her
attorneys-Lincoln and Clinton White
commenced her suit against the Gilligs
for $4,000 damages, attorney Charles L.
Jones, counsel for Mr.. and Mrs. Gillig,
demurred to the complaint. The de-
murrer came up yesterday for considera-
ton before Judge Catlin. The demurrer
maintained that the complaint did not
state facts sufficient to constitute q cause
of action, inasmuch as it was not shown
that the criminal proceedings were at an
end and that Miss Gehring had been ac-
quilted.
1t was also contended that there was no
malicious prosecution, as set forth in the
complaint.
Judge Catlin sustained the demurrer on
the ground that the conclusion of the
proceedings had not been shown. Miss
| Gehring's counsel were allowed ten days
to amend their complaint.

PnLADGLrIlA, Dec. 3.-John Nc.
Manus WAS hanged in tho corridor OF
Moyamensns prison this morning.
The drop fell at 1000 o'clock. The
crime for which he was hanged was
the fatal shooting on the night OF Feb.
ruary 81, 1890, OF Eugene McGinnis.
McAlanus to-day terminated Il life that
has been marked throughout It's course
by violent deeds. McAlannus was born
In this city forty years ago. In early
life llo shot and killed sailor in this
city, for which crime he served five
years in the pcnitentary. McNlanus as
he grew older took an active part In
politics and proved himself on num-
Der OF occasions IN exceedingly useful
man TO the leaders OF his ward. His
next appearance In tho dock was the
fatal shooting in 1870 Of Il man named
Barney leymy at Democratic mass
meeting.
For this crime he was acquitted for
lack OF evidence. Since then brawls,
fights and assaults have been common in
cidcntsof hiscareer. Forsome time prior
to the committal OF the crime for which
he was hanged, Mcaianus lived with u
notorious woman named Amanda Cross.
On the night OF the murder McManus,
the woman Cross and McGinnis had
been drinking together. Liquor was
AlcAanus's bane through life and
seemed to bring all his evil passions to
the surface. As the party drank to.
Gethcr McAlanus accused McGinnis OF
trying TO ALLEVIATE the affections OF tho
woman from him. A quarrel took place
and McGinnis Left. the house. McAlanus
followed him and SHOT him twice. Nc
.Ginnis died and McAIanus was tried and
convicted OF his murder. When found
guilty McNlanus broke ont into a terri
bio TRADE against tho district attorney
and was impossible to sentence him at
the time owing to his violent behavior.
Subsequently McNIanus was sentenced
to be hanged on August IL last, but an
appeal was taken 10 the supreme court.
This court affirmed tho sentence OF the
lower court and the board OF pardons
having refused to Interfere, McNanus
to-day answered TO the law for tho MUIR
der OF McGinnis.

NAVAL ORDNANCE.



Tho Armament OF the Vessels.
WAsniSoros, Dec. .. Commodore
Folsor, chief OF the Bureau 81 Ordnance,
in his annual report to tho Secretary OF
the Navy, estimates tho expenses OF
tho bureau for the next fiscal year at
$i,7So,20l OF which total tho sum OF
81, $4,000 is to be applied towards tho
improvement OF now vessels. The
number OF guns required to arm tho
new vessels Is placed Mt 3i7, ranging IN
calibrc from four to thirteen inches.
Although none OF the Slips authorized
to BIO built require guns of sixteen-inch
calibrc, 1t believed that such guns
may DO needed, SO aho necessary
plans havo been made and authority Is
sought for construction OF one OF them.
1t is believed that tho difficulties exper-
fenced abroad with these large guns
can be overcome. In order to facilitate
interchange OF ammunition in case OF
war, it is recommended that Ill projcc-
tiles used by the army and navy be
made OF uniform sizes and weights.
The trials OF smokelcss powder manu-.
featured ut the torpedo station are said
to have resulted satisfactorily, and /
believe THAI within n very short time
the use OF gun powder will ba entirely
abandoned in caibres OF six-inch and
below it, being replaced by SONIC ono OF
tho numerous forms OF so-calleG smoke
less powder.
After describing successful trials
made with emmensitc, the report says:
at is the bureaus intention to recon-
mend tho adoption OF Il relatively short
gun OF largocalibre, using powder rs the
propulsivo charge and firing projectile
containing charge OF emmcnsitc OF
gun cotton, for feature OF the arma-
ment OF vessels, with view OF utilizing
an aerial or submarine torpc 10 effect ut
ranges which the question of accuracy
OF fire is absolutely eliminated"
The experience OF European countries
is said to be conclusive as TO the merits
OF the now small calibrc smokeless
powder rifles, and the navy is only
waiting the action OF the army board to
arm tho sailors with new small arms.
Touching tie submarine gun now ap-
proaching completion, the report says:
"a further consideration OF the subject
OF submarine artillery inclincs the
bureau to bulief that 1t will prove q
valuable and important adjunct to our
defensive armament, particularly when
mounted OH beard OF vessels intended
especially for RI mining. 1t seems proba-
bic that the CHI ances OF the ram being
able to reach Ever antagonist with de-
structive effect will be Qundrupled by
the addition OF this upon her means OF
olcnsc."
