Capt. Noung Not Satisfied With the
4. :. Commissioners Ruling.

The case OF the sailors Of the schooner
Jennie Thomas. mentioned in the Morn
ing News yesterday. has been carried be-
fore Judge Speer. The facts, as stated by
Capt Young, appear 10 Dc that the seamen
do not desire to return north. and there

the pretext that they fear physical injury
at the hands Of the mate. on several oc-
casions they have refused to perform
necessary work upon the ship. and exhib-
tied spirit Of insubordinat,a-
The fear of the mate. It is claimed. is
purely imaginary. The decision Of the
commissioner, Capt. Young thinks. will
not be upheld BY the judge when all the
facts are presented. AT the trial before
the commissioner, the mate. who. alone.
by reason Of his familiarity with the
whole matter, was able TO suggest ques-
lions upon the cross examination of the
seamen was without even request frciu
the sailors attorney. and against the pro-
test of the captains counsel, directed 10
leave the room where the examination was
held
This, the captain says. was n singular
proceeding, as he himself had no personal

and could give no aid 10 his attorney, who
then declined to proceed further, and
offered no evidence for the defense. pre-
ferring 70 let the matter go direct before
Judge Speer.
AIessrs. Mercer & Mercer appeared for
the seamen, and MIR. Isaac Beckett for the
ship.
Commissioner Connolly rendered his de
cision in the case Of Jansen against the
schooner yesterday. I'm View of the evil
dence presented he decided that the
threats of the mate To- kill the seamen
had terminated the contract between the
seamen and the vessel, and he certified TO
the clerk of the court that there were
sufficient grounds for issuing a libel. The
libel against the schooner was issued and
bond given, pending the trial Of the case
by Judge Speer.
The only evidence submitted before the
commissioners was that on the part of the
seamen, and the attorney for the schOon-
err. Mr.. Isaac Beckett, the commissioned
said, failed to submit evidence OF any
kind, therefore the only course left was
to give the complainant his wages. Capt.
Young refused TO pay the wages and Will
let the matter 80 to trial before Judge
Speer. -Four other sailors stand on the
same ground as Jansen. and viii likely

PNEUMONIA AND \ BULLET.
The Two Combined TO Garry on An
ME Cooney.

ME Cooney.
Annie Cooney. who was shot in the head
by Rosa Williams on the night Of Feb. s,
died yesterday morning at o'clock. A
post norton was held by Drs. Sheftan
and Corbin, which showed that the i'm
mediate cause of the woman's death was
pneumonia.
The wound in the head was, in the opin-
ion Of the physicians, not necessarily fatal,
as the bullet did not enter tho brain, but
passed downward from the right temple,
lodging in the nasal cavity. The weakened
condition, as the result of the wound,
aided the pneumonia in its work This was
the substance OF the physicians state
ments to the coroner's jury.
The main witness at the inquest was
Rebecca ellison. who told the story of
the shooting She said that she and the
Williams woman We're together in the
house Of the latter. Rosa had a half pint
flask of whisky and called Annie COoney,
who lived next door, to come over and
drink with her. She came over and the
three women drank the whisky. They
We're sitting together around the fire when
Rosa, who was under the influence of
liquor. snatched n pipe from the mouth
of Annie and threw it into the fire.
The two women had some words over
this, but it soon passed off. Rosa then
went into back room and came back
with a pistol which she began swapping
promiscuously The witness called out to
the woman to quit swapping the pistol at
her. and then she began swapping It at
Annie. The pistol went off, the bullet
striking Annie Cooney in the head. The
Williams woman said that She did not
know the pistol was loaded. The pistol
when examined, had but one shell in it.
II was a 3S-caliber Of cheap make.
The jury discussed the case for some
time, and finally brought in a verdict that
Annie Cooney's death resulted from pneu-
monia, superinduced by a gun shot wound
inflicted NV Rosa Williams.

for Holverson estate by mistake made
his administrator a party defendant, in

nant at the charge that he arrested two

In statement TO q Morning News re-
porter yesterday Detective HUMPHREYS

capped convicts wanted at Greer's camp

there, and who furnished the infornga~
ton that led him to write to Greer Broth

the man had been released by order Of
Chief McDermOtt who had given orders
that no more prisoners were to be re-
ceiVed from me at the barracks. Thomas
was turned over without consulting
Chief McDermott and he had no grounds
for releasing him. l did not know Priest
at all and would not have delivered the
men to him unless he had shown his
authority l will make a test case of il
and see whether a man VAC has been
arrested as an escaped convict can be re-
leased on the order of the chief of po-
lice, without an investigation. Seeing
how things were going 1 released Charlie

Recorder Wilson Had Genuine
KIeptomaniac 20 Deal With.
Recorder Wilson had a genuine case
of kleptomania before him yesterday
morning. Mary Jane Law. colored, was
arrested about a month ago for larceny
from Adler's. The case has been post
poned from time to time on account of the
illness Of the woman. The evidence showed
that she was subject to hysteria, and
during her spells was also subject to
klcptomania, but never stole anything
of value to her. She is well educated
and has a good position as a school
teacher in Florida. Letters from ply
sicians in Jacksonville and elsewhere
who had treated her showed conclusinely
that the woman was subject to a very
serious form OF hysteria. Her father,
who is a respectable colored man living
in Savannah testified that he had spent a
considerable sum of money in medical
services for his daughter on account Of
her complaint. DR.. 5. c. Nelson testified
as to the girls condition. Under Inc cir
crmstances Recorder Wilson decided 10
discharge the girl.
