The CandIestick Stabbing. Case.

The trial of Rafaelle Fannuchi fo
. assault with a deadly weapon upoi
/ one Cho1ovich at tho Kennedy mine
was commenced in the superior courl
on Wednesday morning. The CASE
\ was prosecuted by the district attor
ney, and the defendant was represent.
ed by Chas. Ii. Crocker. A jury was
Iquickly secured during the morning
session as follows:
l. N. Chitwood, N. T. Williams,
Wm. Doyle. d. Gilchrist, Il. W.
Vandament, W. h. Mcfarland, K. o..
Mexican, Jacob Klies, John Ringer,
q. W. Haney, N. Hornberger and S.
j. Avise.
The testimony given by the wit
nesses went to show that the dispute
arose in the washroom connected with
the changing room of the Kennedy
mine. M. ChorovIch, the complain
ing witness, went into the washroom
and seized the basin that was being
or was about to be used by Fannuchi,
whether by mistake or Intentional
was not clear. This led to some feel
ing Both went into the changing
room to change clothes, Fannuchl on
one side, ana Chorovich on the the
other. Words occurred there, and
challenge to fight on the outside was
the outcome. Chorovich left the
changing room to go home, and under
the dump pile waited for Fannuchi,
who at length appeared on the dump
above. Chorovich went toward him
and asked him If he wanted to fight,
and he answered no. Fannuchi had
miners candlestick with him. 1t is
not u unusual for miners to pack theii
candIesticks to and from. work. The
oandlestioks are the property of the
workers as a rule. Blows we're struck
and scrImmage occurred. Both
men fell to the ground and tussle
ensued on the ground, at one time
one getting the upper place, and
again the other. In the melee Fam
uchi jabbed the point of his candle
stick into his adversary. 1t was not
a dangerous wound, and the injured
party speedily recovered. Fannuchi
was arrested on felony charged for
assault with deadly weapon.
The jury retired to deliberate upon
their verdict half an huur before
noon. At II o'clock they we're taken
to dinner, and upon returning TO the
jury room, they soon announced that
we're ready to report to the court.
Upon returning to the court, they
handed in a verdict finding the de-
fendant guilty of simple assault.
This result is looked upon as the
most sensible outcome of the trial,
and is commended generally. The
punishment for this otfense is limited
to a.Gne of s500. or Imprisonment in
the county Jail not exceeding three
months. The otfense as fixed by the
Jury came within the jurisdiction OF
the Justices court.
