BRAMLEY VERY ILL.
1t was impossible to give hearing
in the case Monday morning, owing
to the inability of Frank Bramley,
principal witness, to be present. Syl
vester Hull, murdered, was brother
in-law of Bramley, who was a partic-
ipant in the fight that resulted in
IIull's death. The tragic incidents
connected with the disastrous affair,
have proven too much for Bramley's
constitution. He was obliged to take
his bed, Friday afternoon, and has
been unable to leave it since. Several
doctors have been attending him, and 1t
is reported that the trouble has caused
him to become temporarily insane.
To-day, the man Is in precarious con-
dltion. The wounds he received lii the
fight hurt him considerably, and his
mental delusions work against his
chances of recovery.
1t is hoped, however, that Bramley
will have recovered sufficiently by
Wednesday to permit the taking of
his deposition. '
TAKEN TO COUNTY JAIL.

Carrs were removed from. the City pris

BROUGHT INTO COURT.
Sheriff Kelly and Deputy Sheriff
Stone brought the Carrs from the jail
to Justice Holfmans court Monday
morning. Neither OF the accused mel
were handcutfed.
4 Ed Carr's countenance oetrays anX
icty and care. His eyes are sunken
aud he talks only when 1t is absolute
ly necessary. Gideon Carr talks 9
great deal, and does not seem so mucf
impressed over the gravity of the sit
uation as does his son.
TALKED WITH FRIENDS.
A man and woman who gave theil
names as Mr.. and Mrs, Il. Nj, Hankcy
and residence as Akron, Were very
much interested in seeing the Cars
Monday morning. They visited May
or's court, and We're present at Jus

a while with the woman, who said sh'
was his cousin. He asked her to visi
