swearing out five more warrants, one
of which was raiding warrant. AS a
result Rosslyn was in turmoil last
night. Nelson swore out warrants for
the entire gang. Among them was
Frank Forster. When the trial of
Nelson opened yesterday before Squire
/ Lane it was evident that nothing was
| going to be left undone to secure the
conviction Of the former Jackson City
proprietor. Ia fact, he made no effort
to defend himself Commonwealth At
torney Johnston and Attorney Marbury
appeared for the prosecution. Nelson
was represented by Mr.. John Ii.
Greene, of this city. Justice Pelham
assisted Squire Lane, and the trial had
not progressed very far before several
spicy incidents showed themselves. 1t
was found that the warrant which
had been issued with William
Mudd as complainant, was defec-
tive, and before the case was
opened Mr.. Marbury asked that an
her warrant be issued. This was
Gone and Immediately served on Mel
son. The first one was nolle pressed
and Mr.. Greene asked for the defendant
that the first warrant be dismissed with
costs on plaintiff Mr.. Greene asked
that the case be moved to the county
court of Alexandria. Justice Pelham
said: "For what reason 2" 81 never
gave reason for what did," said the
lawyer The court overruled the
motion and counsel moved continu
ance on the ground that the warrant
had only been served but few min
utes before. This was also overruled
and then the defendant asked that the
case be quashed, as the present warrant
was defective in that it charged both
promoting policy and allowing it to be
done on the premises. Again was the
motion overruled. Then the witnesses
were sworn and testified. The justices
conferred in an adjoining room at the
conclusion of the hearing and seid they
found Nelson guilty, and imposed SEN
tence of thirty days in Jail and fine of
800 Mr.. Greene noted an appeal 10 the
county court. and asked that Nelson be
released on his personal bond, as he
was under heavy bond to appear at the
same term of court. This was opposed
by Mr.. Marbury, and arguments were
made on both sides and Nelson was
placed under bonds.
The open way in which Nelson had
asked for raiding warrant had not
gone unnoticed, and by the time tie
deputy was ready, Joe Thomas,
who runs Jackson City saloon, was
seen driving hastily in that direc.
ton. AT Rosslyn Frank Forster and
Thurston Johnson were seen near the
entrance to Lully's. The deputy
sheriff went to the door and started TO
enter, but his progress was barred.
The door was finally opened and the
party passed up stairs. When the
official commenced to look for his prey
he found that nearly all o: them had
escaped Frank Forster hurried across
the Aqueduct bridge but returned and
was placed under arrest. The warrant
which was served on Thurston John
son read Ferguson Johnson, and being
therefore defective that person escaped
arrest. Lully could not be found and
neither could the other men.
