CORONER SPRING IS
BUSY WITH INQUEST

It was expected that Coroner John
T. Spring would hold an inquest to-
night in the case of David Nc
Avaney. who was found dead in the
basement of the police station last
Wednesday morning, after having ap-
piled the day before for medical at
tention. complaining that he was un-
well. There are so many other

Is not likely this inquest will be held
before Friday night.

CORONER FREES
FATHER OF BOY
Who WAS KILLED

That Coroner John r. Spring is
convinced that the shooting Of Joseph
Nardozzi aged s years, son Of Saw
erino Nardozzi, who goes by the Eng
lish name of Samuel Norris, at the
home OF his parents No 205 East Sec
ond street yesterday was an accident,
is evident from the fact that the
father OF the boy whom the coroner
took into custody yesterday at noon to
be held for the inquest was released
/; in the day.
The reason Coroner Spring or
dered the father detained was because
the latter had scratches on his face
causing the belief that he might have
/ been In an alteration OF some kind
He told the coroner that cat
scratched him and later said he did II
himself This variance also caused
/ suspicion. In his excitement at the
untlmely death Of his son, he appar'
/ emily did not know what he did say
for It appears tat the scratches reall,
were self-inficted. Upon hearing o
the shooting the father In his anguish
tore his hair and scratched his face 50
badly that the blood came He was a
work when the shooting occurred.
Dehity Coroner Harvey u. Nichols
said today that the inquest woul'
probably be held on Friday night o
this week

Of the dead boys family to locate An

TALK OVER
PLACING OF The
CITY'S WIRES

W. A. Heindle. general superinten-
dent Of the Wilmington and Philadel-
phia Traction Company appeared at
the meeting of the Street and Sewer
commissioners this morning regard
ing the board passing Il resolution al
lowing the Board of Police Commits
sioners TO place the fire and police
alarm wires on the top crossarms of
the poles of the Tracticp Company.
Mr.. Heindle said that he did not
think that the police and fire alarm
systems should place their wires on
the top cross arms of poles above
the high current wires of the COM
pany for the reason that the linemen
Of the police and fire alarm systems
were more or less inexperienced In
work with wires carrying heavy volt
axe and that it might prove danger
GUS for some of them TO have TO clint
up through a net work Of wires car
ryng a very heavy voltage. he SAID
that for safety the wires should %
on the lowest arm of the poles.
The Peoples Railway Company
sent communication to the board
stating that the Police Comm sslor
could string its wires on the cross
arms of its poles all over the ciy u
it desired TO do so
Resolutions changing the grade o
Fourteenth street and removing pnrl
of Carpenter street from the city MAJ
were returned TO the board with the
approval of the Mayor.
Permission was granted to Miss r
n. Keim to have banners placed across
Fourth street and across Market
street at different points advertising
the summer Chautauqua.

BROWN GETS
FREEDOM FROM
PARDON B0 ARD

Special 20 THE EVENING JOURNAL
DOVER. Del. June lO.-The state
Board OF Pardons met here at noon
today i'm adjourned session to- con-
slider further the case of Walter
Brown, ,colored, for whom an applica-
ton for pardon was made on Thurs
day last. the charge against him be-
ing felonious assalt upon a oolored
woman. and for which he was given
a life sentence. The pardon was ask
ed on the ground of new evidence
creating a doubt as to his guilt.
After a full discussion or the case
the pardon was recommended by a
vote of four members of the board
with secretary of State Thomas W.
Miller not voting, he giving the fol-
lowing reasons for his action
"In the case OF State vs. Walter
Brown in a petition for pardon ! am
of the opinion that the character OF
the prosecuting witness has been
shown to be bad with respect to the
morality under consideration in this
case. Il was stated by the petition
er's counsel that the corroborative
evidence of Mrs. Starkey had con-
siderable influence upon the jury, but
nothing has been brought out to con.
tradict her evidence. ! have endeav'
ored to obtain the past record of th'
petitioner, Walter Brown, in the towr
where he claims TO have been borr
and lived a major part of his lite
: but so far cannot obtain any trace
or authentic information about him
am opposed to any other penalty
except that of death for the crime
OF which this man was tried ano
convicted by a jury. and should furtn'
er investigation show that the peti'
toner had been engaged in and sus
pected of such practices in the pas
would under no circumstances vote
for his pardon. and therefore until
am absolutely convinced of th'
cleanness Of his past record | am un
able to agree with the finding and de
cision of the other four members o
the board of pardons.'
