MANCHESTER EXCITED.
The Murderer of Sergeant McAlIister
Bound Over.

Manchester, NH, May 22.-Nothing
of criminal nature has caused SO much
excitement here for half century as
the foul deed which was committed at
the police station last night, when Sergt.
Henry Meal lister was shot and almost
instantly killed by ex-Patrolman Fred
A Stockwell.
The court room could not begin to
contain the people who desired to be
present when the murderer was ar
raigned this morning. When Stock
we'll, guarded by three officers, was
brought before Judge Hunt, he appeared
very cool. Lawyer Jas. l.. Briggs an.
pcared for him, and he was bound over
to appear before the September term of
the grand jury.
1t is probable, however, that arrange
ments will be made whereby he will be
tried ut the term of the supreme court
now sitting in this city. The entjre
front of the police station has been
drained. and there is almost constant
stream of people visiting where the
deed was committed.
Although but 2s. the murderer has
led a very vcnturesome life. He spent
several years as sailor, and for a time
was n cow boy in the west. He ex
nresses not the slightest contrition for
his act.
q II has ctranspired today that there was
one direct witness to the killing of Nc
Al1i.ter. II was ex-Patrolman Charles
D. Healey, who was in the guard room
at the time the deed was done. He
savs the sergeant was sitting on the
mess rable,. He was talking with Stock
we'll who was standing few feet dis
tant. The latter charged McAlIister with
d iiai .d this. Healey says Stockwell then
n,;nted his left hand to McAllister and
said s @You are liar. At the same
f;na he put his right in his pocket
drew out his revolver and fred the fatal
shot.
