DistrietAttorney Jerome flec-
ommends the Release of the
Actress Charged with the
Death of Caesar Young-
Jury, Would Disagree Again

 
 

 

 

NEW YORK, May 12.~—Nan Patter-
son.‘the one time Florodora show
girl, was released from the Tombs
prison today after almost a year with-
in its walls awaiting a determination
of the charge that she had murdered
her proctor, “Gamer“ Young, _a race
track bookmaker. She will leave for
Washixfgton at 3:25 o'clock this after-
noon. She was loudly cheered by a
crowd of 2,000 persons as she left the
prison. '

Her release was made at the in-
stance of District Attorney Jerome,
who said he did not believe another
trial would result other than in a dis-
agreement. At the same time he do-
clared that there had been a serious
miscarriage of justice. He said many
of the newspapers had labored to
create sympathy for theglrl and that
this case had “caused one more step
in this county toward trial by news-
paper rather than trial by jury."

He approved of all his assistant
Mr. Rand had done or said in con-

_ ducting the case and added: “The
people for whom I care approve our
action. From the same part of the
community we have received nothing
but fairness. l have information that
admits of no doubt that there was
unanimity In the jury room on three
points: First, Morgan Smith bought

, the pistol; second, Nan Patterson took
the pistol in the call with her; third,

Caeser Young did not commit sui-

cide. I ask that the prisoner be dis-

charged on her own recognizance."
in his address to Recorder Goff.
preceding his recommendation for

Miss Patterson’s discharge, District
,Attorney Jerome l ,. i defended
his assistant, Mr. Wyhe declared
the attacks upbn’h 'g chief of states
he termed Mr. Rand, were "wilful
and mendaoions,” and that though
madeby hismprofeasionul. '1.
he considered them unjust in the ex-
treme. He would that be“ upheld Mr.
Read in» everything that he did: during
the trials, andconsldel‘ed his conduct
of the case an exhibition of bravery
on his part.

Mr. Jerome also criticized the news-
papers for their statements about the
expense of the case, declaring that
they had made “gross misrepresenta-
tions of the cost of the trials," and
that the accounts of “enormous ex-
penditures flaunted before the public"
were erroneous. He said that his own

. auditor had made an estimate of the
case, which did not exceed $8,000.

As Miss Patterson left the court
room she was met at the threshold
by her father, who threw his arms
around her and exclaimed: “Thank
God, my daughter." She was driven
in a carriage to her lawyers' office in
the World building, where she re~
mained a short time. When she left
another outburst of cheering and hand-
ciapping by a crowd greeted her. She
then went to the St. Paul Hotel, where
she had lived before Young's death.

J. Morgan Smith and his wife, Mrs.
Julia Smith, Nun Patterson's sister,
were discharged from custody by
Judge Foster today. Both had been
held on a charge of conspiracy in
connection with the Patterson case.
' As soon as he was discharged,
Smith was re-arrested on an attach—
ment for failing to obey a subpoena
issued by the. grand jury and was
committed to tho Tombs prison for
examination on Tuesday next.

Counsel for Smith said he would
make application before the Supreme
Court today fci a writ of hubeas cor-
pus to free him.

District Attorney Jerome replied
that he would do what he could to aid
him, and Judge Cowing, upon signing
the order for commitment of‘ Smith,
said he was also agreeable, anti if he
had erred in any way, the Supreme
Court would adjust the matter,

FINANCIAL LOSSES
FROM THE TORNADO

Will Probably Exceed $200,-
000, While the Loss oi Life
Will he in Excess of 100

SNYDER, Okia., May lit—it is esti-
mated that the teat loss of life caus-

ed by the tornado of Wednesday
night will be somewhat in excess of
too pensions. Those who have investi-
gated still maintain that the property
loss will not be less than half a mil-
lion dollars. A partial list of property
losses is as follows:

13, C. Burnett, cotton gin, less 314,-
000.

Thomas Wagner, cotton gin. $14,000.

Twenty-five dwellings on the north
side of the ’h‘risco tracks and west
of E street, of an average value of
$300 each, either damaged or demol-
lshed. Among the number were some
residences worth much more. The
value given is taken to be a fair aver-
age.

The damage to other butldlngsaand
residences exceeds $100,000. ' -

The 'P‘rfsco Railroad, from the de-
pot to the limits of corporation in
each direction is strewn with timbers.
pieces of brick and stone and other
things cast there by the storm. lt
lcqulred considerable work to clear
the tracks.

Pitable scenes of want and suffering
were seen here today. Mitch confusion
still existed, despite the efforts of hun-
dreds of outsiders to aid the victims
of Wednesday night's tornado. Last
night many who had lost their all went

 

 

 

hungry and unprotected front the
cold.
Many bodies lying In temporary

morgues remained unidentified, while
among the injured dozens who suffer.
ed from wounds or broken limbs were
without proper medical attention. Oth-
ers were still missing and an exact list
of the casauities was not to be had.

Today rescuers continued their
search in the wreckage for victims, in
response to Governor Ferguson's re
quest to the people of Oklahoma to
tender immediate aid, carloads of pro
visions, clothing tents, bedding and
medicines began to arrive and with
them came persons from all directions
to render aid. The most serious prob-
lem today was the immediate housing
of the homeless and the providing of
medical care for the injured. Physi-
cians and surgeons have worked at a
disadvantage because of lack of house
room and insufficient facilities. ‘

All night two dozen men worked in-
cessantly, preparing the bodies of the
victims for burial, and today dozens 0i
funerals were held. All day long
crude hearses passed through the
wreck littered streets. .

Poorly clad men, women and chu-
dren, facet of whom had suffered from
wounds and hunger, wandered about
trying to find some aliasing loved one,
or went from morgue to morgue in an
endeavor to Identify them among the
dead.

Henry Schultz Goes to State
Prison, Charles Slavin,
Henry Johnson, Michael
Lubey and John McCarthy to
Jail-Chris Nevilles Turned
State's Evidence

 

Yesterday was houseclearllng day
among NorWalk and South Norwaik

criminals. and there is a ilnebatch of
them in the county jail, serving sen-
tences today, while one ornament in
the criminal line. from this city will
grace the interior of the prison at
Welhersfleid for a year or more.

The burglarugang, comprising Henry
Schultz, Charles Slavlu, Ont-is Nevnies
and Frank Boenische, which tried to
loot the summer resilience of Nelson
Taylor at Cal! Pasture Benoit last
winter, was up for trial.

Henry Schultz went to state prison
for not less titan one your nor more
than two years. Charles Slavlu went
to the county jail for seven months.
and Nevilles. who turned state evi—
dence, was allowed to go. The case
of lloenlhche has already been settled
by ills arrest as a deserter from the
United States navy.

Slavin, though the one to enter the
house, armed with a big club and ran-
sack it, received only a light sen-
tence. He put up a great plea of
previous good character, which seem-
ed to influence the judge. The Bridge.
port morning paper prints the fol-
lowing account, which may be inter-
eating:

Charles Slavin represents the case
of a young man who went wrong from
LVII associations, forgot for a night
his home. forgot the gray haired fa-
ther and the mother into whose
hands he had upon every pay day be-
fore handed the whole of his wages.
He was not a bad boy in any sense of
the term prior to February Ill: this
was admitted by the state in atl~
perlor criminal court yesterday, but
upon that date the good reputation
of the past 23 years was sacrificed in
T'burglary into which it seems he was
led by others. Two were captured
and two escaped. With the boy was
Henry Schultz, who. although only a
year his senior, has served nine
months for a previous burglary and
'30 days for another offense, and whose
general appearance in court yester«
lay denoted the. tough and youth of
:rlmlual instinct.

The four young men visited a place
a East Norwaik on the night of Feb-
:unry 13. According to the statements
made by the state in court yesterday,
Ind confessed to by the prisoners, on-
.rflnt'e was effected and property stol-
en. It did not, however, appear that
young Siavin went. into the premises
or that he received any of the spoils.
in fact It was asserted that he did
not know what was taken until after
his arrest for complicity in the ,burg-
lary. His trouble consisted solely of
his being in bud' company.

The stuff taken was of trivial value.
slavin's father and mother, by re-
quest of the court; made statements
In his behalf. Both declared that he
had been a good boy up to that time.
had always given his mother his
wages. was home nights, and his fam-
ily did not understand how he could
naVu gotten into this scrape. it was
iIlOWn that he had previously held
)ositlons of trust. In one instance he
had been in the habit of depositing
money for an employer at bank,
”ind had also been a sheriff's keeper
for an officer in South Norwalk upon
level-oi occasions where attachments
and been matte. Never before had he
been unfaithful to any trust.

So impressed was Judge Reed by
the previous good character of the
acting man that he let him off with a
seven months’ jail sentence. while
Schultz was “reprimanded by the
lOIil‘t, who also expressed the hope
that he also might reform, and to
enable him to‘ do so the court gave
him a state prison sentence of two
years maximum and one year mini-
mum, '

Henry Johnson who broke open a
tool box, and etc o a number of tools
from some men in the employ of Con-
.ractor Alfred J. Dooley, at Tokcnelte.
on May 3, went to jail for four
.nonths.

Henry Williams, who burglnrlzml
Horace R. Nash‘s store in North Main

street, was sent to jail for nine
months, He pleaded guilty to the
charge. ,

Michael Lubey, on old offender, who
was one of. the four men to no brutal-
ly assault John Malone recently, was
also up for trial, but be got off with
the light sentence of nine months in
the county jail. He was charged-with
theft. from the person of John Malone,
committed on April 27, in this city.
but the state, after a thorough inves-
tigation of the facts, became convinc-
ed that Lubey did not rob Malone. but‘
wea'nne of the three men who assault-
ed him .upon the date in question.
when 08.60 was taken from him. after
he was knocked to the ground and
punched severely by the gang. it was
laid in father‘s favor that lie-caution-
ed the others not to hurt Malone, and
that be was not personally acquainted

Attorney John J. Width, of Nor-
walk, May Call the State
Committee Together Soon

 

 

The four New Haven members of
the Democratic state central commit-
tee have been informed recently that
Mayor Charles F. They-er, of Norwich.
would be willing to cent the ap-
pointment as chairmi ‘01 the state
committee if it should come to him.
The information did not come from
Mayor ’i‘hayer but from a confiden-
tial friend-of his.

Mayor Thnyor was chairman of the
state committee in 1900 and put up a
bustling campaign. It is understood
tbat'Judge Robertson; the candidate
for governor last fall. and who is said
to be a candidate for renomination.
would be glad to have Thayer manage
the nexttnmmign. ‘ ,

Those who feel that it would be ad-
visable to change chairmen, believe
that if a change is to be made it
should he made shortly so that the
party may have ample time in which
to pull itself together, but they haven‘t
yet figured out how to get the state
committee together for the purpose of
voting on the question. it seems that
Chairman John J, Walsh, of Norwalk,
has power to call the committee to-
gether and there is a doubt if anyone
else has that power. So the whole
thing may remain In abeyance for
many days to come.

gardlug the imprUchouts and repairs
to be made to the parsonage in Rowan
street. The repairs will be quite ex-

was awarded to li“. B. Gregory, and
work will be commenced as soon as
possible. ,

The parsonage will be made into a
three-gable house, with an enlarged
kitchen and an extra room on the
upper story. The rear of the house
will be carried an another story and a
hall and bathroom built. The kitchen
will be considerably larger in size
and the arrangement. of the dining
room somewhat changed. The gable
running east and west will give a
space of 33x36 feet. A large veranda
sevon feet. wide will be built on the

While the Russian Admiralty
Declines to Give Dut Infor-
mation it is Believed Way is
Being Made for lioiestven-
sky’s Squadron .

 

ST, PETERSBURG, May 12.——The
admirality declines to divulge any in-
formation which it has about the, ships
of the Vladivostok division which are
reported to be off the coast of Japan.
but the impression prevails in naval
circles that, acting under the instruct-.-
tions of Vice Admiral Rojestvensky
they have passed through Tsugaru
Straits into the Pacific on a recon-
naissance to ascertain. if the passage
is free of mines and feasible for R0-
jcstvensky's squadron and also to
threaten Japanese commerce. All the
Russian naval divisions now in the
Far East are acting under Rojestven-
sky's orders. "

M. Vronski, the military expert of
the Novoe Vrcmya, explains that the
failure of Field Marshal Oyama to
undertake an advance as well as the
failure of the Japanese to send an
expendition to the island of Sakha-
lein are due to the appearance of Ree
jestvcnsky‘s squadron in Chinese wa-
tars.

“In his hands now is the destiny of
the Far East,“ the paper says; “may
(Tori grant him success."

The Steve reproacbes the Imperial
Guard for not going to the front, say-
ing: “its, place is on the battlefield.
in all Russia's wars the Guard has
won glory. it is composed of the
picked men of the empire and should
show the world what Russia can do."
