Of the Excelsior Stables in West Fifty-hfth
street, charged with murder IN the second
degree In killing stableman James Cummings

ana man named Hurley beat Galivan with
balestick Bennett advised the latter to
shoot the men.
A warrant was ISSUED for Benefits arrest,
and when he appeared In the courtroom and
took front seat In the spectators box Capt.
Lindsay, OF the Court squad, asked him to
step outside the room.
Bennett, who seemed to be under the inft-
ence OF liquor, refused, and when the oflicer
undertood to eject him he resisted.
A scriminage cnsued between Bennett and
several court officers, which brought the pro-
cecdings to u standStlll.
Bennett was finally overpOwered and taken
in charge by Detective Trainor OF the Dis
trict-Atlorhey's office. He will be indicted
for pei jury.
Two ply sicians were called to the witness
stand this m lrning, and their evidence closed
the case for both Sides.
DR.. Charles +. Chctwood, one Of the visit
ing physicians at the City Prison, testified
that, vii DR.. McGee, he examined Galivan
when he was brought in and found him sui
feiing from injuries about the face and body.
Three ribs and the nasal bone were broken,
beside several other injuries about the head.
