with Burning: Whttchurst HALL

Another sensation was sprung y2sres.
day morning when 1t had been learned
that Charles Cook. who was few
days ago released OH q peace bond. had
been rearrasted and was committed to
Jail upon warrant sworn out, charg-
ing him with burning Whitehurst's hall.
1t is said that more evidence was dis
covered at q late hour Tuesday night.
which caused Il warrant to be issued
for Cooks arrest
The attorneys for the Commonwealth
state that the newly discovered evil
dence IS much stronger than any that
has been produced. and that it fixes;
the guilt upon them.
II IS further stated thnt there is mors
valuable evidence to be secured. which

Oners.
The Hon. John r. Nicely ana John W.
II. Porter, attorneys for j. E. Crismond
charged With the burning Of White

Judge A. S. Watts yesterday for bail
for their client. The motion was argued
by these gentlemen, and opposed by
Colonel X. r. Griffin, assisted by Major
Crocker and Colonel w II. Stewart.
who moved that the matter Of bail be
continued.
MT. Nicely gave authorities, and urged
that the prisoner he bailed
Colonel Griffin spoke against the
granting Of bail. He was followed by
Major Croker. who In the course of
his remarks said that he thought that
no harm could be done to the prisoner
by his remaining in Jail for a few days
more, as the grand jury would meet on
I,hursdav May 9Th, but that a great
deal OF harm might come to the county
by allowing the prisoner bail
He further said that on Tuesday nigh.
that the Commonwealth had come in
possession Of evidence which made their
case much stronger, and that perhaps
III less than six hours more they
would be in possession Of additional ev-
idence that would fasten the crime
conclusively on the prisoner and his
colleagues, and that perhaps Mr.. Nicely
might have an opportunity to dc ns lie
SAID he would in the beginning OF the
case. If he believed Crismond guilty of
the crime charged he would not have
anything to do with the case, nut il
was not eXpedent to make it public at
this time, and that lie did not intend
mat Justice should be frustrated by the
prisoner being admitted to bail; that life
was sweet to the prisoner. and who
knew but that justice might not he

ever he would give notice that should
the prisoner be admitted 10 bail in the
case or the burning OF Whitchurst's

place that had been burned had been
acted upon

The court finally decided to continue
the case until Saturday morning. and
