Acting Coroner Pond of New Haven Inves- ticates as to tl:e Death of Wrinn-Morri- son Arrested and Discharged-Other Notes.
 Deputy Coroner Pond of New Haven came up here on the early train yes terday morning, and after hearing the facts regarding the death of Thomas wrinn at once ordered the arrest of William Morrison. Deputy Sheriff Rod Austin served the papers, and Morrison was locked up to await the hearing. As the deputy coroner had important busi- ness in New Haven he returned on the s:53 train and came back here on the 12:32. The hearing was had in the court roona with closed doors. The witnesses subpoenaed were James Hayden, John Cox, Mrs. Patrick Taylor, a daughter of the deceased. Patrick Cullen, a liquor drummer from New Haven, was a wit ness of the whole transaction in the sa loon Monday night, but was not pres ent at the hearing. From the first it was evident that the witnesses had been in- structed as to their testimony, and the real facts of the case were being hid den, as none of the witnesses would tes- tify to anything definite, and it was impossible to locate from the evidence, who was responsible for the mans in- iuries and subsequent death. As there was not sufficient evidence introduced the prisoner was discharged, and the hearing came to an end. Deputy Coro- ner Pond returned to New Haven on the 4:3s train.
 Besides the Morrisons there was the New Haven liquor drummer, James Hayden and John Cox who were in the room during the fight, and strange to say no one could be made to remem- per anything about the occurrence or 1t least not enough to locate the blame apon anyone. Even c. B. Smith, who was badly handled, gave no testimony of any value. The affair has caused uuite an excitement here, and the citi- Eens in general are highly indignant
