Congosto IL said 10 have received the
evidence upon which he made the in
formation from six or eight of the sea-
men OF the Bermuda. who are said to be
dissatisfied with their treatment on the
voyage and are probably taking this
method to avenge Themselves. Mr.. Harts

was merely Il preliminary one and no
evidence was taken. Assistant District
Attorney Ralston appeared for the Com
monwealth and asked that Mr.. Hart he
bound over for further hearing to-
morrow at noon. MIR Ralston suggested
that Mr.. Hart's bail be fixed at $4,000.
Captain w. w. Kerr. counsel for Mr..

this district would ba .taptamount to
conviotion. THE Geverpment made no

to New York.
