the President Judge each placing thirty-,hree
names in the wheel.
"Twenty-four grand jurors and forty-eight
petit jurors, or seventy-two in all, were drawn
by the Sheriff and the Jury Commissioners to
serve at December Term next, which left twenty
eight names remaining in the wheel. BY en- e> ell
drawing there would be in the neighborhood of
twenty-four of the jurors placed in the wheel by
each of the officials drawn therefrom and nine
left therein. An examination of the list shows
us that of the jurors named by one Commissioner
thirty-one were drawn and two left in the wheel,
of those named by the. .other thirty were drawn
and four were left and of those placed in the
wheel by the President Judge eleven were drawn,
five as Grand Jurors, six as Petit Jurors, and
twenty-five were left. To state the result of the
drawing in another way six per cent. of those
named by one commissioner, twelve per cent of
those named by the other and sixty-nine per
cent. of those named by the President Judge
were left in the wheel When we consider the
fact that the jury of Secenty-two could not have
been filled without taking at least five of the
Jurors named by the Pre>idcntJudgc in addition
to all ofthose named by the Commissioners it
will seem that only the remaining six of the for
mcr need be drawn As a matter of selection.
"By fair drawing there could be only the
remotest possibility Of chance of the result OBJ
tanned. The mere statement of the facts not only
arouses ones suspicion of the impartialty of the
sclcction but carries withit conviction to moral
certainty that something was wrong at this
drawing. We do not say there was an intention
and deliberate plan on the part Of the officers to
violate the law. This we do not know and we
make no charge Of that character. But we are
convinced that, for some reason, whether the pa
pers upon which the names of the Jurors were
written were not thoroughly mixed or other
cause, there was not the fair and impartial draw
ing of the names from the wheel the law requires,

ANDREW II. GREEN
SHOT And KILLED
Murdered on the Threshold Of His
Home by Insane Negro.
FATHER OF GREATER NEW YORK

New York. Nov. 4.-Andrew H.
Green, the Father of Greater New
York." and one of the city's Oldest and
most remarkable citizens, was shot and
instantly killed on the steps of his
home, on Park avenue, by Cornelius
NJ. Williams. a negro, who is believed
TO be insane.
The shooting was evidently the out
come OF an insane delusion on the
part of the negro that Mr.. Green had
slandered him, for, when he was asked
why he had committed the murder
he replied: Il did it to save my char
acter."
There were three witnesses of the
tragedy, Mrs. Anna Bray, a domestic
in Mr.. Green's family; Emil Michel
sen, an errand boy, and Patrick Dyer,
a cabman. According to these wit
nesses. the negro must have been wait
ing for Mr.. Green to come home from
his office. When he alighted from a
car, in the tunnSf-at Fortieth street,
he walked slowly towards his resi-
dence, almost directly across the street
The negro was standing in the vesti-
bule of the house. and as Mr.. Green
started to ascend the steps leading to
the hall door. Williams advanced to-
wards him. There was a brief inter-
change Of words, and then the negro
drew a revolver and fred FIVE shots in

from his head, while his murderer,
returning the revolver to his pocket,
leaned against the railing Of the stoop,
as If awaiting arrest.
William H. Burns. carriage starter
for the Murray Hill Hotel, was one Of
the first to reach the negro, whom he
seized as he was about to walk away
and turned over to policeman and q
detective, who rushed up moment
later. A physician was on the spot

Mr.. Green to be dead. As the negro's
aged victim fell, young woman rush

tried in vain TO get a response, Will

One Of the negros bullets imbedded
itself in the ceiling of the vestibule.
II is believed that all Of the others took
effect. A cursory examination by a
physician and the coroner revealed one
wound in the left side of the head,
one in the left temple and another at
the base Of the brain. Amy one was
sufficient to cause death.
Williams appeared to be perfectly
self-possessed and acted as though he
felt he had performed a meritorious
deed. He is a well-built man, Of aver
age height, and Of not unpleasant fea-
lures. The prisoner answered, with
out hesitation or any show Of irrita-
ton. all questions put to him and spoke
like Q man firm In the conviction that
