This ended the testimony and the

as given above. The jury was com
posed of r. G. Maclean. J. Il. McLynn.
John l.. Nash, Ii. S. Arlington, John
F'indley and Joseph Jones.
THEY WE'RE FRIENDS.
Charles ]. Cannon and Captain Prince
had been lifelong friends. They were
school boys together, and since reach
ing manhood they have been closely
associated. personally and politically.
For these reasons the killing of the
former by the latter was almost un-
believable at first. In the recent con-
test of Captain Prince for Chief of
strongest supporters. His advocacy of
his friend. Captain Prince, was open
and aggressive.
One of the rumors which gained cur
rency after the shooting yesterday was
that there had been ill-feeling between
Captain Prince and Mr.. Cannon be-
cause of the formers discovery of the
treachery of the latter in political mat
ter5 This rumor does not seem to
have been we'll founded. Close friends
of both gentlemen say there has never
been any rupture between them politi-
cally.

the public
Judge Wilcox said in reference to the
action of the Federal officials that his
client had TO be tried somewhere, and
he couldn't say as yet whether he
would enter plea to the jurisdiction
in the United States Court or not. He
had not read the statutes governing the
case. Judge Wilcox said he did not
know when he would ask for bail. If he
asked at all. United States Commits
sioncr has not authority TO bail in muir
der cases. and application will neces-
sarily have To be made to Judge Wad
dill. What legal action that will be
taken remains 10 he seen.
AS TO JURISDICTION.
In reference to the court having jur
isdiction in the case, the following has
direct bearing:
The Virginia Legislature passed an
act February 6, 1862. giving the states
consent to the purchase by the United
States OF the site for the custom house
in Norfolk. This act specifically re-
serves the right of concurrent jurisdic-
ton upon the property in question.
The consent of the State is given sub
ject TO the following terms and condi
tons:
First. that this State retains concur
rent jurisdiction with the United
States over the said place. so that the
courts. magistrates and officers OF this
State may take such cogni2ancc. exc
cute such process AVID discharge such
other legal functions within the same.
as may not be Incompatible with the
consent hereby given
The second condition provides for
the withdrawal of the states consent
In the event that custom house was
not erected within five years from date
Of passage.
Some lawyers hold that this concur
rent jurisdiction OF the state extends
only to making arrests and the serving
OF processes, etc, and does not extend
to the trial of an olfense committed on
the property.
CAPTAIN PRINCE SUSPENDED.
The Board of Police Commissioners
held n special meeting soon after the
shooting. and suspended Captain
Prince pending an investigation, and
Il further report of the killing and its
circumstances by Chief Kizcr. There
were present ut the meeting Mayor
Johnston, Mr.. John n. Vaughan, City
Attorney Walter II. Taylor. Common

was served upon Captain Prince at the
police station by Deputy United States
Marshal James IL. West. That officer
took the prisoner to the city Jail.
He will be carried before United
States Commissioner George T.. Bow
den for preliminary hearing at II
O'Clock this morning. The action of
the Federal government authorities in
the case is explained by reason of the
fact that the killing was done on the
property of the United States.
Occurring as this killing did in the
middle of the day and in the busiest
portion OF the city, the news OF 1t
quickly spread, ana several hundred
persons were on the scene of the shoot
ing within a few minutes. For more
than an hour afterwards men congre-
gated around the scene in groups and
discussed the tragedy and It's probable
cause, which seemed 1hrouded in mys-
terry.
