KEARNEY, SULLIVAN AND o'NEIL.
The supreme Court Amrms Judge
FalIIgant's Court i'm Their Cases.

News was received In Savannah yester-
day from Atlanta that the motions for
new trials in the cases against Maurice
f. Sullivan, Simon ]. OrNeil and Patrick
Kearney had been refused.
The supreme court affirmed the rulings
of the court below, and these prisoners,
who have been kept in jail since their con-
viction, will be sent to the penitentiary
the last ray of hope for them having been
extinguished.
Maurice Sullivan and Simon ]. O'Ncin
were charged with the killing of Preston
Brooks, negro, one night last winter in
the tenderloin district of the city and were
convicted of manslaughter and sentenced
to fifteen years in the penitentiary each.
Pat Kearney's case was one which
aroused much interest. He was
charged with the murder Of
Jack Wyness in barroom
months ago. He was convicted, with a
recommendation for mercy, and the court
sentenced him TO a lifetime Imprisonment.
He was represented by Messrs. T. S. Nor
gan, Jr., and Mr. T. l.. Hill.
Sullivan and O'Nein were represented
on their trials by f. NJ. Oliver, Judge Fl.
d. d. Twiggs, Mr.. T. S. Morgan, Jr., and
Mr. r. NJ. Hitch, MIR. Hitch Withdrawing
from the case after the trial and before
the argument for a new trial before the
supreme court was made.
There has been much interest in these
cases since they were first put on trial
before the superior court, and the public
has watched for the decision of the su-
preme court with a great deal of concern.

day afternoon the New Castle club
played a gingery game on the campus
against a picked nine of Delaware State
Hospital attaches. The asylum fellows
started in with four errors the first in
ming and runs piled up on the New
Castle side.
The visitors took out their effective
pitcher, Bridgewater, and even then the
Farnhursts could not bat out a victory.
Duffy and Madden were in the points
for Farnhurst, while Leach played all
over the infeld. Kehoe made some cleo
trifying stops at first base and the bats
men, seeing this, were careful to 'lift'
their hits clear over to the Outfield. L.
Wise did some sharp playing for New
Castle.
Umpire George Woolson was threat
ened with Imprisonment in one OF the
buildings for favOring the New Castle
team, and he wanted to quit and &C
home, but they made him stick to his
post then as a punishment.

the game was the appearance of tht
charming young women attendants il
pretty light blue frocks, lace caps anC
white aprons. sitting in a line betweeI
the two brilliant flower beds along th'
rich green sward.
The score of the ball game was: New
