Judge Refuses to Release Nan Pat
terson on Bail, Pending An
other Trial.

New York, Jan. 7.-Justice Green
baum, of the New York state supreme
court, Friday denied the application OF
Nan Patterson for bail pending new
trial on the charge of the murder of
Caesar" Young. In denying the appli-
cation Justice Greenbaum said that as
it appears that the district attorney in
tends to proceed with a second trial OF
the prisoner he did not feel that he
would be justified in ordering her Pc
lease on bail Miss Patterson became
hysterical when Abraham Levy, her
counsel, went to the Tombs and informed
her of Justice Greenbaum's decision.
She wept and waved her arms frantl-
cally, refusing to be comforted. Later
when her father visited her an affecting
scene took place. The young woman
tried to restrain her emotion, but finally
threw her arms about her fathers neck
and burst into tears again. He, too, was
overcome and suddenly collapsed, and
it was necessary to send him home in
cab

tenders boilers blew up just above the

evening he was able to converse with
those who were with him. The bishop is
IS years old, and while he has been in
fair health practically all his life, his
age tends to add to the fear of his friends
for another and more serious attack.
He complained Friday morning to
Father ]. F. O'Reilly that he was suf-
fering with slight attack of neuralgia
but thought nothing more about it.
Shortly before four o'clock his house
keeper was startled by the sound of
falling in the bishops room
She ran hastily to the place, and found
him lying on the floor partially uneon-
scious and unable to rise. At a laseL 2ur
he was resting comfortably.
