SELF-DEFENSE IS THE JUSTIFICATION, Mr. Allbright Discharged Also by Order of Justice Gee, but He an Investigation and Clearance by the Grand Jury. The coroner's jury in the case of the late "William B. Parker, captain of police, who was shot aud killed by Oflicor Georjo Allbright, Friday morning, returned a verdict yesterday exonerating the latter, The Inquisition was resumed at 11 o'clock, but nothing new of importance was elicited, the testimony Riven by Witnesses Frank Lylo, William liansen, Elmer A. Hubbard, Robert Tall man and Arthur Davis corroborating that already published in these columns.

All agreed that Parker was the ugfjroBSor aud that Allbright s.hoC In self- defense OFFICER WILBON RELATED a conversation ho had with Captain Parker at the prize-fight, lie asked permission to remain for a short time and Parker said "You stay here all the time! This Is Roing to break up in a row and you may have to shoot so mo of a I am going to shoot somebody myself." OFFICER AIIMSTONO RELATED that as lie was pass ins the sceno of the tragedy, some time after It occurred, he saw six cartridges lyiug on the ground between the pavement and the high beard fence. Ho picked them up. carried thorn to tho hall and delivered them to Scrgoant McCtmiy, who called his attention to one In which there was a dent. Several of tho eyo-witnossea having 1 testified that they did not soo Parker "break" his gun. and that It was united when nicked up, tho jury sought light on thoquestlon.

as to now THE (jAirnuixiES WERE RELEASED from tho cylinder of tho pistol. Deputy Sheriff Oiimmack explained, using his own weapon as an illustration, how easy It was Ui empty a gun like I'arkor'd of Its deadly missiles, it Is hammerliiss and a spring in tin; hilt, when pressed, as It naturally would ho when used as a club, would cause cho gun to break and tho extractor would throw tho six charges out simultaneously. It was proved to the satisfaction of tho jury that when Parker struck Allbright over tho liuud, that tho concussion to thu barrel and HID pressure on Lho spring caused tho gun full apart and thu cartridges to drop over Allhrlghfs shoulder. In tho oxcitoment neither noticed them, and in what followed Parker was vainly endeavoring to lire an empty pistol. Finding that something was wrong, ho opened tho gun, and at thu same moment the second bullet entered his arm, shaltorlng tho bone, and causing him to drop thu pistol, when it struck the walk.

This point being satisfactorily -determined, the jury united in signing THE VERDICT: Territory of Utah, County of Salt Luke, s.s.: An inquisition holdon In tho city and county of Salt Luke on tho 'J7th and SKMi dnys of November, IS'JI, boforo T.

Attest: TC. HARKIS, Coroner. ALL-BIGHT CJOES FIUSE. As soon as the verdict was signed the Coroner notified tho authorities at the City Hull, but owing to tho absence of Marshal Young It was deemed advisable to keep Allbright in durance until legal authority to liberate him was received. At a few minutes past o'clock County Attorney.

Murphy and Prosecuting Attorney Elchnor being present, Allbright was nrralsned in tho Police Court on tho chiu-ffo of murder. A plea of guilty not being entered, Prosecuting Attorney Elchnor made a statement to tin; Court which resulted In tho following order being entered on tho court blotter: OHDKR Off JUSTICE GEE. George P. Allbright, nun-dor Discharged from custody on motion of County Attorney Murphy for the reason that defendant killed William B. Parker In sslf-defenso on tho 27th day of November 1801.

WANTS FUHTIIICR CLEARANCE. Allbright received tho verdict in a niat- way, and after receiving tho congratulations of his friends and associates, ho was accompanied to lila room, whoro he sought oblivion In slumber. In tho evening ho was able to take a walk, and Is improving so rapidly that ho expects to resume his duties as n. patrolman In a few days. Although exonerated by tho Coroner's jury and discharged by tho Police Magistrate, he Is desirous of having the grand Jurv, now in session, also Investigate tho CM so, and It is possible that a friend will swear to a complaint to-morrow In order to bring It legally before them.

In those pip- Ing times of "cinches" and jobs ic-is wise to take every precaution to guard against any assaults the enemy might deem expedient to mako In tho future. The Pioneer literary. At a meeting of tho Hoard of Directors of the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce a resolution was passed requesting the president to call tho attention of the reading public to tho necessity of patronizing tho public library known as tho Pioneer Library of City, which was some dmo ago transferred from the Masonic Library rooms to tho Chamber of Commerce. It is truly said that tho intelligence of a. community can safely be gauged by tho stsimhiril of excellence maintained in its public libraries.

On this account alone, if for no ot.hrr reason, it is to bo hoped tbnt since the library become a public Institution, it will not, only maintain the record already established, but will be supported In such a manner that the management will be enabled to employ an assistant librarian for tho purpose of keeping the rooms open at night as well us during the day. Anyone devoting a moment of time to reflect upon this Important subject ought to realize at onco that thero Is nothing in this city which deserves tho patronage and fostering caro of tho public raoro than the Pioneer Library of Salt Lake City.

WAS MBS, HEND ROBBED? HER HUSBAND DOKSX'T THINK SHE WAS TiilXlNCc THE TRUTH. A Story of Marital Infelicity and the Division of AVhcro Now Has tho Yt'ouian Thiu Tarn. Among tho passengers who arrived in Salt Lake on the J2 o'clock west-bound train of the Rio Grande Western on Friday was Mrs. Bertha wife of Thomas Heud of this city. Mrs.

Mend claimed to havo been robbed of a purse containing 540 some time during Thursday night In the slccpiug-car between isallda and Grand Junction, Colo. According to her version of the affair the robbery occurred along toward morning and was committed by tho porter on the train. She nays sho wns aroused during the night by feeling a hand passing over her bro.ist, Sho pushed aside the curtains of her berth and behold a man whom sho declares was the porter of tho train, hastily goiug down tho aisjc. For some cause nest known to horsclf, Mrs. Hand remained perfectly quiet, Instead ot making an outcry after dlscover- tho theft of her purse.

Upon her arrival in Salt Lake she had tho porter arrested and searched, but nothing could bo found to Indicate that ho was the guilty party. Tho olTlL-ialsof the road profess to know nothing of tho robbery, aud claimed that had It occurred tho Denver office would be reported to look into tho matter. There is a lack of collusiveness In the woman's story, and her husband says he places no reliance in It whatever. To a reporter Mr. Hsnd unloaded himself of a talo of woo concerning what he termed tho duplicity of his better half.

Mend, at the solicitation of his wife, cnmo to Halt Lake three years ago from Leavenworth, Kansas, in search of work. He is a stonemason and soon found employment. After ho had got settled into a steady job ho sent for his wife, and sho carno to this city. But discord entered into tho family circle and on ono or two occasions Mrs. Mend made tho claim that her liege lord had attempted her life.

"Sho told me." said Mr. He rid, "that It had taken all tho money except S100, to settle up Indebtedness, in Leavenworth. She wanted to me $50 and call it square, but I told her I would not accept It, and gave her notice that I would go to law about the matter." But during the hours of darkness Friday night Mrs. Ilend disappeared. Shu retired to her room in tho Grand Central Lodging House at 11 o'clock.

At 9 o'clock yesterday tho lamp in her room was still burning and Landlady Smith rapped on tho door to inquire into the cause. There was no response. Pushing tho door opftn tho landlady entered tho room to find It vacant. The bird had flown. A description of Mrs.

Hend, who Is a blondo, well-proportioned, rather inclined to be good looking nnd a little above the average height, was given to tho police. Although tho officers and the husband were on lookout all day yesterday, no trace of tho lady was discovered. Sho had disappeared as completely as though tho earth had opened and swallowed her, THE CITY Tho past wook has been a busy one in the Waterworks Department, for 1000 feot of sis-inch pipe was laid on Tenth Wost and Second South streets, 1600 feet of six-inch on Sixth South and State, and 3liO feet of four-Inch pipo in a court between Sixtn and Seventh South on Main street; also, three tiro hydrants were placed In position, twenty water service connections tnu.de, and feet of trench excavated in the City creek high line.

For the period beginning July 1st and ending November 21st, loads of garbage und dead animals were disposed of under Its supervision. During the old regime garbage amd dead animals were allowed to remain on the ground to putrefy and disseminate disease. Conditions havo changed, in some respects.
