SUTHERLAND ON TRIAL.
His Counsel VninIy Pleads to Jus
ticc CulIen for Delay.

Justice Cullen opened the February
term Of the Brooklyn oyer and Termlner
this morning, and the first case on his
calendar was that of Kenneth f. Suth-
crland, the Coney Island Justice OF the
Peace and henchman of John Y. McKane,
who is the first of the indicted Graves
end officials 10 follow the chief before the
bar of justice.
There was a great crush In the court
room.
After the MINES OF the new panel OF
jurors had been called. and those who
had excuses were let of by Justice Cui-
len, Col. Lamb came forward and for
mally moved the trial OF Sutherland.
Lawyer Backus was on his feet In a
IN with an objection. He said the
defense wanted a day or two, that sev-
eral of the Couns were very busy with
Mr.. Mechanics affairs and they needed a
few days to prepare their case. Justice
cullen asked. in some surprise, II they
since the case had been set down for
trial. and although Mr.. Backus admitted
this. he made IA variety of excuses for
delay.
Il cannot listen to such exc.ses and
must overrule the objection you make
to proceeding with the trial. We will go
aheau with II at once" said the Justice.
Mr.. BaCkuS made some other excuses
and said that Lawyers Roderick and
Troy could not possibly be- in court to-
day, but this was OF no avail, n the
prosecution was at one" directed to pro
coed with the examination of jurors.
The utfense charged against Sutherland
in the Indictment is a misdemeanor un-
der section so of the Penal Code, which
provides that IA public officer, or per
son pretending to be such. who un-
lawfully and maliciously under pretense
or color of official authority. arrests
another or dctains him against his will.
or does any other act whereby another
person is injured in his person. property
or rights, commits oppression. and is
guilty OF a misdcmeanor."
The Grand Jury found the hin against
sutherland for ordering the Illegal ar

Cullen's decision.
Until so notified" he said. IT will not
attempt to say when McKane will be
taken to Sing Sing. Whether or not he
will be taken up the river to-day depends
upon circumstances"
He declined to state what the ''cir-
cums,ances" depended upon were. but
his manner conveyed the impression
that McKane might not be taken to
Sing Sing to-day.
The Sheriff refused to allow reporters
to see McKane. and also declined 20
state how the Gravesend boss took the
decision.
To prevent reporters from invading the
Jail he stationed himself at the door and
personally met all visitors.
1t was announced last Friday that, in
the event of Justice Cullen's decision
being adverse to McKane, the prisoner
would be taken to Sing Sing to-day.
