The vacancy on the bench Of the Court OF Cen
eral Sessions caused by the death on saturday
OF Judge Randolph Il. MARITIME was the subject of
some speculation yesterday, though some poIl-
tcians thought II hardly proper To discuss II so
soon. The appointment Of Judge MARITIME sue
cessor Is vested I'm Governor Morton, ana VIII De
for the period ending January !, 1896. Judge
Of the General Sessions viii he elected Tor lulI
term OF fourteen years at the next general cleo
ton In November.
II was assumed that when the Governor got
ready To appoint Judge Marines successor Tor
the remaining eight or nine months OF the year
he would select Republican. Several names
were spoken OF yesterday. James \. blanchard
was often mentioned a Republican lawyer
who would reflect honor upon the bench. John
Sabine Smith also had many friends VINO
thought he had earned recognition. EX-Judge
Ernest Hall and Edward Lauterbach had the
support OF the Plat men. and their services to
the machine were diated upon. Mr. Hall was
said to be Mr.. Platts choice, and To have the
inside track. The salary Of the Once

FOR KEECAN.
Petition for a New Trial Filed This
Afternoon.

Attorneys r. G. Pierce and J.J. McGill,
counsel for Lawrence c. Keegan, today
filed in the clerks office OF the appellate
division OF the Supreme Court a motion
for a new trial for their client. No
affidavits were filed with the petition
and there is consequently no disclosure
of the new evidence, which is one of the
grounds on which new trial is asked for.
The petition asks for a new trial for the
following reasons: First because the
verdict was against the evidence and the
weight thereof; second on the ground of
new evidence in favor of the defendant
discovered since said trial, material, and
which newly discovered evidence was not
known to the defendant until after said
trial; third that the presiding justice
erred in his ruling as particularly set
forth, excepted to, stated and shown in
the statement of the evidence and the
rulings thereon, which has been filed and
is hereby made part of the record of
this petition; fourth because the court
erred in admitting certain testimony of
Hugh McCusker as to statements made
by the defendant, accounting for or at
tempting to account for his whereabouts

ELEVATOR FELL.
Harry Ellis, a Resident of
East Providence, Injured.

Harry Ellis, aged 80, and resident of
at 10 this atternpon by the falling of an
elevator in RE STORE OF Greene q An
hony ON Pine street. Ellis had gone to
bundles, and just as he brought the eleva-
tor to stop the cable slipped and shot
into the cellar, a distance of nearly fifty
feet, carrying Ellis with it. The con-
cussion was. sufficient TO hurl Ellis
through az heavy door, and he landed
sideways agaiusta lot of empty barrels
John Farrell, one of the employees, ran
TO his assistance and found him uncon-
scious. A physician was summoned, who
found that no bones were broken but
was confident that he was injured inter
nally. He was taken to his home in a
carriage and attended by DIR. Whltmarsh
A short time ago the elevator acted i'm a
like manner while John Farrell was riding
on it, and once while a load of rubbers
were being hoisted TO the upper story.
At this time Herbert Walker was on the
elevator, but il did not drop but 20 feet,
SO he was not injured TO any great extent.
When Rowland Rose occupied the store,
a man was coming down the elevator.
He was sitting upon barrel of whiskey,
the elevator saddling broke away and
when ii stopped the man was forced into
the barrel of whiskey, and was somewhat
injured. There have been more or less
repairs made on the machine, and those
that are employed in tie upper stories of
the building are Cbliged to use the eleva-
tor TO go and come from their respective
departments.
