They swore. Irt effect, that they saw Kennedy come off the Staten Island boat at St. George about 1 o'clock In the morning oi the 16th day of August, 1838, the time he is alleged to have left the Grand Hotel after the murder. Burns testified that ha passed the dentist on the road to New Dorp, walking along In the direction of his home about 2 o'clock. The hackman said he particu larly noticed the defendant, because he appeared to be drunk.

i 'v Wagner said he knew Kennedy, because he had driven him and four other men to South Beach In 1804. He couldn't remember any of the other men. He denied that "John T.

Moore indignantly replied thathe was not suborn me tne witnesses, every minute. I have nothing to say about that just yet," replied Mr. Osborne with much em- pnasis on tne yet. Burns. the croduce dealer, who dlscon erted Prosecutor Mclntyre on the last trial with his bluff and breexy replies, and who was threatened with Imprisonment by Justice Fiirsman, was not quite so Dreesy under Mr.

Osborne's handling, and made a very tractable witness. Mr. Moore, walking around to the witness chair to examine a diagram of Staten Island shown Bums, waa sharply ordered by the Court to sit down. Burns- had caused a laugh wtin shown the diagram by exclaiming: I dunno nothin' 'bout no Jography." Mr. Osborne immediately silenced him.

You may be somewhat of a humorist," said be, but you are not here for fun." I object' to that remark." said Mr. Moore. Sit down. Sir," ordered the Judge. But I Just "Take your seat, Mr.

Moore," thundered the Court. Mr. Moore walked slowly to his seat, endeavoring to protest, but was effectually silenced. He again objected to Mr. Osborne's remark.

The Judge paid no attention to him. I except to your Honor's refusal to give me an objection," said Mr. Moore, reluctantly seating himself, and also to the District Attorney's remarks." Mr. Moore stated after the trial that he had heard of a new woman witness who might help his case, but that he hadn't gotten to her yet. He also said that he would not divulge the name of Kennedy's double unless forced to by the trend of the trial.

00 B. 14th Bt. TO APPEAL TO GOV. ODELL Attorney Steinhardt to Ask Removal af Commissioner Murphy for Alleged -4 'Persecution of Louis WaldronJ Louis Waldron, proprietor of IJttle Coney," at 216 West One Hundred and Tenth Street, who was arrested several times by the police on various charges, has assumed the offensive, and Is going to fight the entire police force, and ask the Governor to dismiss Commissioner Murphy for alleged hounding and persecution. Waldron was In the West Side Court this morning, and won a complete victory over the police.

Central Office detectives had charged two of his waiters with violations of the excise law. Sunday they arrested Andrew Jaeckle and 'Charles Thompson, waiters, for selling liquor on Sunday. The men were arraigned and discharged promptly. Magistrate Meade refusing to listen to the evidence of the prosecution. Assistant Corporation Counsel Terence Farley was present to sustain a complaint of violation of the excise law.

When Jaeckle was arraigned, Mr. Farley said: "Detectives Corrlgan, and Duane made this arrest, and they are here to testify that they "went Into the dance hall Sunday and purchased "Mr. Waldron has a hotel Interjected Attorney Steinhardt- Did the officers eat at the time? Did they order food arjd pay for It with their drinks?" asked Magistrate Tes," admitted Farley, but the food was forced on them by the waiter. It was a mere subterfuge to evade the law." Judge Truax." continued Mr. Farley, "has decided that action of this kind by the holder of a hotel license Is an evasion of the law." I don't care what Truax said or decided," said the Magistrate.

I have the facts of this case before me, and have to decide it, not Judge Truax. Clearly there is no case against Waldron's employes. He has a hotel license, and, according to your own statement, he does not sell liquor except when It is accompanied by food which is paid for. Ton have no Attorney Steinhardt was Indignant at what he called police persecution of his client, and said: Commissioner Murphy and his subordinates have been persecuting my client, Mr. Waldron.

maliciously, for a long I filaced the matter before Mayor Van Wyck a a lengthy communication several days ago, but he ignored the -matter. I shall now go to a higher court. As soon as I reach my office I shall draw up charges against Commissioner Murphy for malicious persecution and forward them to Gov. Odeli, with the request that Murphy be dismissed from office. I don't purpose to permit him to stay." Replying, Magistrate Meade said that he was cognizant of the course pursued by the police, but thst he was powerless to prevent It, and suggested that the lawyer take his case to higher officials." Attorney Steinhardt, who is a member of the law firm of Howe A Hummel, was sen at his off ices yesterday afternoon, and when asked Just what steps he Intended to pursue, said: "I will draw wp papers giving in full the persecution of Mr, Waldron.

It will contain names of places run as Waldron's Is run. which have never been raided. The papers will be In Gov. Odell rt hands by Wednesday. Very wisely the law provides that the Governor have the removing power as well as the Mayor.

As the Mayor paid no attention to my letter. I am going to he- Governor. Why. what Is Kew York coming to when a peaceable, law-abiding citizen can be hounded in this manner? We might as well call It Mur-physvllle, and drop the old name of New York." "Whatever was done yesterday In the matter of Waldron's place," said CommU-sloner Murphy, "was done on the advice of the Corporation Counsel and the District Attorney. I gave no special orders in regard to arrests at Waldron's." PRISONER'S WATCH STOLEN.

Wilson, who has been In the Tombs for a month or so charged with permitting slot machine to be. operated In hla place of business, was taken from the Tombs to the Court or General Sessions In the company of other prisoners Wilson wore a gold watch and chain which he valued at $40.

No watch could Jbe found on any of them. The Captain waa nonplussed. After all of the prisoners had been led back to tha Tombs it was reported to Capt.

Conviction Murder Reverted Be-; cause of District Attorney' Charge. The conviction of Archie Mull In January. 1900, In the Supreme Court in Rensselaer County, of the crime ot murder in the first degree for killing, Mr. Lord, waa reversed last week by the Court of Appeals and a new trial granted, solely: upon the ground that the District Attorney la-his closing address to the Jury Intimidated or the latter, through threats and an appeal to their fears. Into finding the verdict they or at least that hla remarks made It a matter of doubt whether he did not do so, and thus make It reasonably doubtful whether the accused had had a fair trial.

The court. Judge lndon- giving the opinion, said that where such remarks are permitted by the trial court without rebuke or dissent, although objected to, the conviction would be reversed, as claimed, the record disclosed that there was no reasonable doubt' of the defendant's guilt. Inasmuch as that was not for. the court, but for the Jury. to.

determine, by a free and Impartial verdict. Judge L-tndon said that the evidence waa ample to sustain the verdict; and the exceptions, other than those to portions of the District Attorney's remarks, did not require a reversal. The Dlstrlet -Attorney, among other things said that a person representing Mull ff.rt2 "a to vote In his lavor: that the defendant's only hope waa to find one Juryman to stick out and bring about a disagreement to save his life; but If there waa a man among them who would be ma pubi'? opinion and 'to the respect of his feltow-cltlxens: who would be gjtful and reckless of his oath, so negligent of the welfare of his family, as to say fh2t Archie Mull did not commit this crime, then 1 am deceived. there la a man that sits In those chairs that is will.
