PRELIMINARY HEARING OF WALKER.
Justice of the Peace John F. Daly's
Office, at Seventh and Shiploy streets,
was crowded on Thursday when George
Walker had a preliminary heuring on
the charge Of assault on Michael
Griesmer with intent to murder him.
Constable Windish had sworn out the
warrant on information. Walker was
represented by Walter Il. Hayes. Capt.
Wiler and Corporal Valentine of Go.
Il. with 10 men, were present from ths
Moptchanin camp, some OF the men
having bevn witnesses OF the shooting.
DR.. Jesse Williamson, who performed
tha operation on Griesmer's arm. was
the only witness examined. He teHti
| fed that the wound was a gunshot
wound Of the elbow OF the right arm
and that few grains OF shot struck
the chest, but without causing any
| serious injury there. This elbow was
| practically shot to pieces, the bones
heing simply pulverized. He thought
Griesmer might be able TO appear az a
| witness 10 three weeks. Magistrate
| DAILY thereupon fixed the time for a
further hearing at 10 o'clock on the
m0rning of Monday, August 18th.
Walker was held in S1,o00 bail to ap-
penr at that time, Thomas j. Stirling
and John Lynn becoming his security.
While the shearing was in progress,
someone in the crowd remarked, re-
ferring to Walker: There he stands.
He ought to he shot himself. / would
be enc of a hundred to mob him right
away"
This remark was overheard by two or
three persons, and upon receiving the
information that such talk was heard,
MIR. Hayes put, his client in care of
Constable Windish to save him from
possible assault. No effort was made
to harm the defendant, however, aud
soon after the hearing, be left in @. +.
Wolhar's wagon for his home.
After comforting with Magistrate
DAILY, Capt. Wiler and his men rs
| turned to Montchanin. One Of the
party in UNFOLDING the position. of thu
soldiers with regard to the shooting
maintained that Walker had made {
mistake whsn be first fred off his gun
, for the reason that the men were ther
going away and his action angeret
