Died by Accident.

Coroner hewitt, discussing the death of
Sorrell, who was a cousin OF Hurley, said
this morning that the young man had UNI
doubtedly died from the Illuminating gas
he had inhaled. The investigation made
at the time indicated that his death was
the result of an accident and not that
he had committed suicide.
Relatives of Sorrell are said to be salts
fed with the action taken by the coroner,
believing death had resulted from gas
poisoning. The injuries he received in
the encounters were apparently only SUI
perficial and were not serious enough to
necesstate his being assisted home.

Had Been Reprimanded.

TO start with. Maj. Leonard appealed
to the court to dismiss the charges on
the ground that Paymaster Aud had
already been punished with a reprimand.
This reprimand was read to the court. 1t
was couched in severe terms, and stated
that Aud would have been subjected to
trial by court-martial but that the pub
licity of such a trial might be more
harmful than beneficial.
After clearing court and considering
the point of Aulds liability TO further
punishment. the board of inquiry ruled
that the prosecution of Aud would pro-
coed.
Assistant Surgeon Robnett was not on
trial today, his case waiting until the
disposal of Auld's.
DR.. CoWles, called as the first witness,
gave the court substantially the same ac-
count of the happenings at the hop and
the encounter with Aud as that recited
in DIR. Cowles complaint on which the
charges are based.
