His HAND CRUSHED TO PULP
Pressman English, of the Severn
ment Printery, Loses Two Fingers.
AT First the Physicians Thought the
Whole Injured Member Would
Have to Be Amputated.

Sylvester G. English, an assistant press
man in the Government Printing Office,
had his hand caught between two cog
wheels of his press this morning, mangling
the fingers so badly that two OF them
had to be amputated.
Mr.. English, who is fifty-seven years of
age, was engaged in cleaning the press
while it was running, when a rag which
he held in his left hand became entanSl1d
in the cogS. The wheels were turning so
rapidly that before he had time 20 loosen
his hold the rag had been wound around
the wheel, drawing his hand after it,
The latter passed between the upper and
lower cogwheels until about half revo-
luton was made, when the press was
stopped by the extra pressure.
English, with his hand still imprisoned
between the wheels, cried out in agony.
The pressman, Williams. hearing his
shouts, ran to his assistance and turned
back the press, but it was fully a minute
before the hand was released, almost
crushed to pulp. Two Of the fingers
were hanging by threads, most of the bones
of the hands were broken, and the flesh
was cut almostin shreds
A call was sent for the Sixth precinct
ambulance, which conveyed theinjured man
to the Emergency Hospital. From its bat
tered condition it was at first thought
that English S hand would have to be
-amputsted to prevent blood poisoning
1t was found on examination, however,
that he would have to lose only two fin
gers, which were accordingly amputa ated
by DR.. Hooe.
Word was sent to the home of the in
jured man, No. 602 Sixth street south
west, TO notify his wife of the accident.

tiCipated in the theft In addition, thrrc
was no testimony to show that McElhone
had any part whatever in the disposition
Of the Newburg circular.
Mr.. pavis said the mostimpoTt ant charge,
in his opinion, was that made OF violation
Of section 5456, which describes the ar
ticlcs taken as having been the property
CT the United States. and that they were
..feloniously taken and carried away"
1t was more than half an hour after the
time set for reasscmbling of court fol-
lowing recess, when Justice Bradley ap-
peared-
Justice Bradley held that the section re-
ferring to the taking or carrying away of
valuable papers from any public office does
not cover the offenSe charged in the indict-
meut. and he therefore directed verdict
of not guilty as 10 that Indictment.
The indictment dra wn under the act OF
1873, the Justice remarked, the court
WAS Skcd to instruct the jury that if they
believed there was a conspiracy, and that
the Newbure circular and the Washington
diary had been taken as a result of that
conspiracy. the defendant should be de
dared as guilty with Turner. He said
the only evidence was Turner's The
justice then read the testimony, showing
that Turner was not certain which had
proposed to 20 into the room where they
were kept: that they first went in through
curiosity. He then cited that Turner CON
fpSsed to having himself taken both of the
papeTs from the Library.
After a review of Turner's testimony
the Justice said il was clearly his duty to
direct a verdict for the defendant as to
that indictment.
After pra yers. argument was begun. 1t
is thought that the Case will be given to
the jury tomorrow.
