during the evening. 1t occurred to
some member of the party that the po-

and Headquarters was called up.

and the officer had expressed a desire

men are superstitious, and the officer
is of the opinion that the last melody
played had some connection with the
trouble with the sailors on Gas House

WANTS ANOTHER CHANCE.

Motion for New Trial Filed I'm Behalf
of George Schroeder.
A motion for a new trial was made In
the Superior Court yesterday, in the
case of George Schroeder, who was
tried and convicted last week of the
offense of keeping open a tipping
house on Sunday, and sentenced by
Judge Falligant to pay fine of $3.50
and the costs of the prosecution or
serve a term Of six months in the coun-
ty Jail.
The motion was filed by Garrard &
Meldrim. counsel for the defendant.
Besides the general and formal grounds
of error, the motion complains specih-
cally of errors in the charge of the
court. which 1t is contended do not
correctly state the principles of law
applicable to the case.

THE JURY CAN'T AGREE.
Whether or Not A. p. Scott Fired the
shots MT TYbee.

A jury in the Superior Court was still
trying at an early hour this morning
to make up it's collective mind whether
A. P. Scott is guilty or not guilty of
the offense of assault with intent to
murder Down at Tybee, on the glo-
rious Fourth, somebody took a shot
into a crowd of people on the beach,
and the grand jury has said that Scott
was the man.
Though a pistol that had just been
fired four times was found in his pock-
ct when he was arrested, a few min
utes after the shooting, Scott vehe-
mently protests his innocence. The
evidence for the state was not sufficient
TO remove from the minds of all the
iurymen a reasonable doubt of the
prisoners guilt, and the twelve have
not been able to agree. A mistrial is
probable.
