OCTOBER 16. SAKS BAIL WOULD XOT HOLD. ASSISTANT DISTRICT ATTORNEY GANS DECLARES HIS BELIEF THAT BISSERT WOULD FORFEIT HIS BOND. Application waa made to Supreme Court Justice Oaynor at White Plains yesterday on a vrrlt of habeas corpus to have George Blseert, who was Police Captain Diamond's wardman, and who was convicted of taking a bribe, released on bail, pending an appeal to the Federal courts. Justice Gaynor took the papers and reserved his decision, saying: "We could not be swayed in this court by the tone of the community, and I would not hesitate to grant bail if I thought the conviction and appeal warranted it.

It seems to me, however, that in this case the Federal courts having created this trouble in carrying out this conviction, that there this application should be made. My belief now Is that, untess I am overridden by authorities. I shall send it to the Federal courts, as it is a Federal question to be deeiGed." Bissert was taken to White Plains in custody of Warden Hagan, of the Tombs. Captain Diamond was present to hear the argument. Assistant District Attorney Gans opposed the application, Bissert was represented by Roger M.

Sherman and Colonel Henry C. Henderson. Mr. Sherman said the prisoner could immediately furnish bail in any amount. Mr.

Gans, in opposing the motion, said: "The us.Messness of granting bail is obvious. If hail is fixed, no matter in what amount. I venture to say. by reason of the department behind this prisoner, it would be forthcoming. If the conviction should be affirmed by the higher courts, as I believe it will be, and this man should be at liberty, I would venture to say that the bail would be forfeited and his friends would gladly pay the amount in order to save the defendant from prison." GANNON CHARGE DISMISSED.

Nicaragua, Sept. It is reported here that President Zelaya has bought from Germany a. small armored cruiser having turrets fore and aft and breech loading rifled cannon. The cost is said to be about $350,000 gold, but. with her ammunition.

sheila and other (supplies, the cost will be about $460,000 gold. The vessel is said to be the single screw iron Armlnius, which was built in ISM for the Prussian government, and which Is iw longer on the active list or tho German navy. The Arminlua is 200 feet long, has feet beam, draws 13 feet of water, and has a displacement of tons. She has 1,300 indicated horse power and was registered as capable of steaming ten knots an hour. She has un armored belt 4Va inches in tnlck- Maa and her armament consists o( four Inch Krupp short breech loadtng guns.

If the purchase Ims been made the Armir.ius will be the first war-6hip owned by Nicaragua. Whether the delivery is to be on the Atlantic or on the Pacific side of Nicaragua is not known, nor 1b anything announced as to the date of the delivery of the vessel. It is believed the cruiser must have been sold partly on credit, because It Is declared that the government of Nicaragua has no to offer. Besides this, people here do not see what can be offered as security for the vessel, unless It is a part of the duties collected on imports, as everything else In Nicaragua worth being considered satisfactory security is already fully pledged. The question also arises as to why the vessel was purchased, for Nicaragua Is at peace with all countries even with Colombia, and there are people who say the warship may be in some manner used In forming a national Central American government.
