JERRY CROWLEY DEAD.
Heart Disease Claims Him cn the City
 Hall Grounds.

Jeremiah Crowley, usually lsilown g "Old Jerry" dropped dead oD the city hall plaza yesterday shortly shter D. m. He had been sitting On the eastern steps, as was oft his custom, when he
 was seen to pitch forward to the ground. He was dead when the med ical assistance summoned came to hand. The occurrence drew the usual crowd, which remained till the county undertaken had taken the, body away. Justice Morris came with a coroner's jury, which viewed the body and will sit in, inquest today.
 There is no mystery attending the death. Dr, Helm. who has treated the man as a matter of charity, was seen by a Republican reporter alt his home. He stated that Crowley had O. disease of the blood vessels of the heart, from which as the doctor had warmed his patient, death was sure to result sooner or later and for which there was no remedy.
 Jerry was pleasant, inoffensive i'm dlvldual with all the loquacity of the Celtic race. He would sit atmost the entire day on the benches or steps of 0he city hall and grounds and was known to all who were frequenters of the little park. He was about 50 years; Of age. By trade he wts a, miner. having worked in the Tombstone and Congress mines, beside prospecting for years. Latterly, till his health failed nlm, he had charge of a section on the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix road. lie had been in Arizona for eighteen or more years, though no relatives are. known. He was 3 native Of Rochester. N. Y.

WAS ACCIDENTALLY SHOT COroner's Verdict on
 Woods Death. There Was No Apparent Sign
 of Suicide.
The Funeral Was an impressive One With the Largest of
 Attendance.

Accidental death' was the verdict of the coroner's jury empanelled to ex- anime into the circumstances attending the decease of l.. J. Wood, aate city as- sessor and tax collector of Phoenix.
 The case was a plain one, and the jury had not retired more than infinite when the verdict was decided upon.
 The inquest was conducted by Jus tice Johnstone, the jurymen being the following named: AL Galpin, WiH Webster, Frank Ph;llips, b Nicholson, James Dobbins, George Broughpon and Henry Evans.
 The witnesses examined were Dr. Cottrell, Harvey J. Lee, Mrs Wood and Henry B. Kemp. The story told did not differ in any material degree from that told in The Republican Sunday morning. B. F. McIlwai1, the father in+law of deceased, was especially cir cumstantial in his testimony. He told how Wood had come home at 5:3O in the afternoon, carrying the revolver wrapped in a paper; how Wood had then gone into his bedroom, and how immediately thereafter he had heard the shot. Wood was p.ainly in good spirits that evening and had had his usual pleasant word to the little fam lily on arrival. McElwain had no knowledge of any cause that might have induced Wood to have committed suicide; on the contrary, his was an even tempered, sunny disposition, he was happy in his home relations and had especial pride and joy in his son, now but seven months of age. Wood never talked of suicide and was sub ject to no fits of despondency. He was prosperous and apparently we'll saItts- fed with the world
 Mrs. Wood, habited in the deepest mourning. was a good witness as we'll and steadily told all3i the circumstances of i.3e f&.3l afternoon
 The examination was conducted by Judge Webster Street, acting, as deputy for District Attorney Mi%ag.

After the an officer brought forth a pistol Of similar make fbhah had ex- pfoded in the hands of a. itocal resident with nearly fatal result
 The funeral was held Sunday after noon. Wood had been a member of the A. o. U. w, Woodnen of the World, Knights of Pythias and Elks. Nearly the entire strength of the or ders in the city followed the body to the grave there ihPino 25G i1ne.1 in line The services were mainly ;fronl the ait 1al of the Knights of Pytlpas, assist ance being given by the officers of the other lodges. Many, too, were the friends besides who followed in car 'iages and rare has been tte occasion when such a deep degree of sincere sorrow has been manifested in this ,ity.

TABLES TURNED.
Horace Vina|, Who Accused
Father of Poisoning Uncle,
Arrested on the Same Charge and
Sent to Jail at Belfast.
No Evidence Against Faiher-Horace Again
Tells Incriminatins Stories.

Belfast, May 6.-At the Vinal hear
ing, today, Horace, the accuser of his
father, stated that he wished TO make
a private statement to the judge, and
accordingly the Judge the prisoner and
his counsel and witness retired to a
private room.
Here young Einal retracted that part
of his testimony of yesterday in regard
to Holmes threatening and compelling
him to swear against his father That
part of his testimony he said was false.
He admitted that his father destroyed
the note. that he did listen under the
window TO his dying uncle's groans.
and that he had had trouble over prop
erty matters. The balance of his tes-
timony was rambling, contradictory
and worthless.
Miss Emma Ninal. sister of the de-
ceased. testified that Horace furnished
the checkerberry which her brother
drank. She noticed that it did not look
right and called attention TO it. She
saw a sediment in the bottle.
Judge Rogers cautioned Horace in
his testimony and said ne strongly sus-
pected him to be the guilty party and
told him that he need not crininate
himself.
With the testimony of Horace thrown
out, there is nothing against Benjamin
Ninal. The former has lied so per-
sistently that his testimony is worth
less. Unless poison be found in the
body the case will completely fail
The hearing in the Vinal murder case
was adjourned till Thursday. Horace
f. Vinal was arrested and sent to jail.
