NEWPORT NEWS, VA, May 2-Spe-
ciaI-The Jury in the case OF II. j. Fraw-
lev. charged with bigamy to-day brought
in a verdict of guilty, and fixed the prison
er.s punishment at eight years IN the penl-
Tertiary. the maximum term. Inc case
was a sensational one. traWley hau no

He is a man of brilliant attainments, ana

that his daughter wrote him a letter 70

fer this move, and checkmated 1t by put
ting Miss Frawley on the stand. She 1es-
tilted that she had written no such ietteE
to her father Frawley knew nothing OF
her presence in the city.
DRAMATIC SCENES.
When the verdict was announced Mrs.
Frawley No. 1 broke down and had to- pc
taken from the room. Mrs. FraWley NO.
wept for few minutes and then tainted
away. The prisoner took the verdict coolly.
His second wife came from Maryland. and
was a widow of a few weeks when he
married. being Mrs. Minnie Harvey. Fraw-
ley is not under indictment for forgery,
and his trial on this charge will probably
come up some time this week.
INDICTED FOR MURDER.
The grand jury this morning returned a
true bill against Lewis Eaton on the
charge of murder. Eaton is the steward
of the barge Montreal, and is charged
with the murder of Captain Weed. the
master of the Montreal, whose body was
found on the beach across the river short
time ago. a report was spread a the
time that the Captain had fallen over
board and met his death by drowning
There had been bad blood between the
Captain and mate over the formers wife,
and chain of circumstantial evidence in
volved Eaton.
Immediately before the Frawley bigamy
case was taken up, counsel for the City
Council and the Mayor appeared and asked
for continuance OF the mandamus hearing
in the effort to force the Mayor to sign
the paving ordinance until next week, and
the date was set for Tuesday.

SPLENDID WORK.
Major Howard CommendS Els Men
for Their Efforts.


Chief-of-Po1ice Howard has many good
words of praise for his men.
1T is with pride and great pleasure that
l refer TO this, he said yesterday morn
ing. THE splendid manner in which all
Officers and men discharged the arduous
duties assigned them in carrying out the
orders from this office TO the letter. de-
serve admiration.
They are deserving Of the praise of
all good citizens in preventing accidents,
saving life and property. The petty thefts
reported during the fair week were, not
above our daily reports. The crooks did
not show UP 10 any extent. Very few
persons lost goods by pickpockets and
most of that was done on the Lakeside
Park cars. Wnen the reports came TO
me I sent detectives out there to look
after them and there was an end OF
that. for they left for parts unknown.
1T is wonderful TO have such crowds
on our streets and so few dlsorderly
persons; the arrests for the week were
no. above the average. The people were
out for fun and the department wanted
them to have it.
The special officers during the Carni-
wal did their work splendidly and a bet
ter selection of men for that work could
not have been made
