is WITHOUT JURISDICTION.

Flushing, N. Y, May 17.--Capt Peter
c. Hains. jr.. U. S. A., who was convict
ed of manslaughter in the first degree
for the killing of VIM e. Annis. at the
Bayside Yacht club last August, was
sentenced today by Justice Garrett
son in the supreme court, to an inde-
terminate sentence of not less than
eight years nor more than sixteen
years at hard labor in the states
prison.
Motions Are Denied.
John f. Mcintyre, counsel for the
defendant, made the usual motion for
a new trial on the grounds that the
verdict was against the weight of
evidence and also contrary to law.
Justice Garretson denied these mo-
tions
Mcintyre then raised the point of
Jurisdiction of the supreme court over
the defendant contending that he had
never been released from the jurisdic-
tion OF the federal government and
there the case was not properly be-
fore the court.
Mcintyre also stated that DR.. Brush,
who had been an expert witness for
the defense, had examined Captain
Hams since he was convicted and
found him insane.
Hains Appears Dazed.
Justice Garretson said there was no
evidence to that effecs before the
court and he declined te consider the
motion in regard to the jurisdiction.
The court clerk then instructed Cap
tain Hams to come to tne bar and pro-
ceeded to ask him the questions usu-
ally put to a man about to be sem
fenced. The prisoner seemed dazed
and seemed to have some difficulty in
understanding the questions.
Lawyers Mcintyre and Young, OF the
defense, stood on either side of Cap
tain Hams and assisted him in an
swering the questions OF the court
clerk.
Received q Fair Trial.
In passing sentence Justice Garret-
son said that the defendant had a
fair trial and had been defended by
experienced lawyers. The jury had
found a verdict commensurate with
the requirements of the law. He said
that the was not aware that any err
rors of law had been committed during
the trial.
Prisoner Was Overcome.
Captain Hams had been indicted for
murder in the first degree, the severest
crime against society, and after Justice
Garretson had imposed the sentence
Captain Hams sat down and dropped
his head on the table before him. He
seemed overcome with emotion for a
few moments, but soon recovered him
self and sat upright, staring at the
court.
General Hams, the defendants
father, and Maj John Powers Hams,
who were in court, displayed much
emotion when the captain was SEN
fenced. Justice Garretson said that
the case would take the usual course
and gave the defense twenty four
hours in which to file an appeal. He
then remanded Captain Hams to the
custody Of the sheriff.
