The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1902-06-04

At 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon a
jury had been secured in the Cosgrove
murder case but not until after the reg
ular panel had been exhausted and
twenty talesman summoned. The four
jurors selected yesterday were Thomas
Walkey, harnessmaker, Scranton;
Thomas r. Jones, miner, Scranton; M.
j. Kearney, driver boss. Archibald; w.
j. Stephens, farmer North Abingdon.
The case Of the commonwealth was
opened to the jury by Attorney r. j..
Murray Immediately after the jury was
secured. County Surveyor M. p. Nit
chell was the first witness put on the
stand and identified drawings that he
made of the interior and exterior of the
Moran saloon on Luzerne street where
Daniel McAuliffe was shot and fatally
injured
DR.. Arthur J. Wilson testified that
he was assistant house surgeon at the
Lackawanna hospital on Dec. 9, 1901,
when Daniel McAuliffe was received at
that institution suffering from gun
shot wound in the left leg below the
knee. The bullet struck the outside of
the leg and passed almost through the
leg at a downward angle Of As degrees,
striking and splintering the fibula in
it's course.
The bullet lodged about an inch be-
low the skin on the inside of the leg,
the point Of Judgement being from
three and one-half to four inches low
er than the point of entry. The leg
was swollen from knee to ankle but
by means of the X-ray the bullet was
located and it was also discovered that
the fibula bone was splintered. Nc
Auliffe's breath and condition indicated
that he had been drinking.
DIR. Wilson cut in and removed the
bullet. On Dec. II there were signs of
gangrene and DR.. A. j. Connell, chief
surgeon of the hospital staff, opened the
wound, scraped away the grangrenous
tissue, took piece of the splintered
bone out and redressed the wound.
The next day the gangrene was so
pronounced that it was decided to am
putate the leg. DR.. Connell had been
called from the city and DR.. Reed
Burns performed the operation. Nc
Auliffe continued to grow worse after
the operation and died on Dec. 1S.
The doctor gave it as his opinion that
gun shot wound was the predisposing
cause of McAuliffe's death. On cross
examination Major Warren laid great
stress on the fact that the ball which
wounded McAuliffe must have been
held at what DR.. Wilson described as
pointing toward the ground at an angle
Of As degrees provided that McAuliffe
was standing up at the time.
DR.. A. j. Connell, who followed DIR.
Wilson gave it as his opinion that the
revolver must have been held at an
angle of sixty degrees. His testimony
concerning McAuliffe and his condition
was practically the same as DIR. Will
sons. Court adjourned after DR.. Con-
nell's examination was concluded.
The defense is bringing out the angle
at which the pistol was held pointing
toward the ground to disprove the the
ory of the crowd that COsgrove and the
men with him fired point blank into the
crowd.

Price street, was tried on a charge Of
purchasing brass dogs stolen from the
carriages at the Mt. Pleasant colliery.
Thomas Watkins, Ernest Watkins and
Joseph Gaughan testified that they
stole the brass and sold 1t to Bushin-
sky. He denied the truth of the boys
statement. The jury went out to con-
slider the case at adjourning hour.
The indictment charging Frank Dup
ka with assault and battery on John
MCGOWAN. a public officer, was quashed
for the reason that the commitment
charged escape from a public officer.

Suit for $4,000 Damages.

Walter German, of Penn avenue, was
made the defendant yesterday in an
action for damages brought by Attor-
ney Edward w. Thayer for Edward
Hardwick, who conducted store in a
building at 1876 Penn avenue, owned by
Mr.. German.
The plaintiff alleges that on May II,
although he was not then indebted to
the defendant for any rent, the latter
seized upon his goods and effects and
on May 81 sold them. For this injury
to his credit and destruction of his
business Hardwick wants 100000 dam
ages.
