sPRING-GUN SETTER TO BE HELD
FOR MURDER.
Judge Garrison Instructs Grand Jury to
Bring Indictment.

Judge Garrison 1nstructs Grand Jury to
Bring Indictment
Under the laws of New Jersey the killing
of a thief, except in self-defense, is illegal.
Justice Garrison so instructed the Camden
Grand Jury Tuesday in the case of Henry
Brown, whose spring gum killed Robert
Dorsey while he was in the act of robbing
Browns chicken house. Mr.. Garrison said:
The law does not authorize the killing
of a mere thief. He may use force to arrest
the man, such as he would in the case Of a
man stealing apples. The law is clear In
this case, and it is clear that you should
return an Indictment for murder. That
will allow the petit jury TO 90 into the
merits of the case.
1t is impossible to indict the man for
manslaughter, as there is no heat or pas
sion. The man took his own time to fix
and set his gun. A presentment for mur-
der would indicate that the jury would
understand the technical facts. Your clear
duty is to find verdict for murder"

Pneumonia is especially prevalent at this
