The First Step Taken to Secure Davis’ Punishment. 0’Brien Secured as His Attorney--- The Maa Admits the Murder Was Canseless, Legal Gentlemen Say He Cannot Be Hanged, for It Was Not Premeditated, The Attempt to Blacken Why- land’s Character Dis- proved. Expressions of Public Sentiment DAVIS IN JAIL. AX INDICTMENT FOTKD. ‘The most of the time of the Grand Jury was given yesterdsy morning to the hearng of evidevce in the cass of * Hank” Davis, for the murder of Charles D. Whyland. The evidense agsinst Davis was very conclusive, sod tended to magnify the ezormity of his erime, if poseible, and make it greatsr than the preeshad pictored it. At least, such was the opinion of ssveral of the jurors, who united in finding s trus bill against him. Immediately after finding the bily, it was retarned into Court, ‘whea the prisoner was summoned to mest it He came 1nto Court in a very excited cordition, the sudden summoons adding to his pervous pondition. Mr. Reed informed the prisoner at opce that he had ween sent for that he might tealize his condition, and that he might PREPARE TO DEFEND HINSELF, »0d that his trial world tase place Wednesday. Davis nodded aesent, and his eyos fell to the @oor 88 he contemplated his sitnation. « Have you an attornsy ? " next queried the prosecutor. «No, eir, but I shall be sble to get one,” re- spouded the prisoner, who was speedily raturned to the jaul. Davis was visited during the day by a large sumber of PRIENDS AND STMPATIIZERS, among whom was 2 lady closely veiled and to whom he paid the greatest attention. Lats in the afternoon he was furnished a copy of the indictment, which he proceeded to read. Its reading was very effective, eepecially since he had been informed that he mnst answer 1t Wed- nesday in the Criminal Court. At the time of reading it he had pot secured a lawyer, but was relying upon Mr. Asay, to whom ho and his fnends bad made overtures. Still Iater be wes waited upon by rhe Hop. W. W. O'Brien, who was accompanied by several of the gambling fraternity. It appesred in & moment that the oers mads t0 Mr. Asav had also been made to Mr. O'Brien, and that, the former re- jecting them, the iatter had sccepted. At least, . O'Brien said he had been retammed in the case, and immediately ed to interview his cliest. He had Do 1ides of what sortof a defense be would maie at the time the reporter met him, but was confiagent that he could not get ready for trial by Wodneaday. HOW THE MAN FEELS, Yesterday alterncon, after Davis had been taken into court, a TAILUNE reporter again called on him at his cell and asked him about the story, started by an unrelisble morning contemporary, §n regard to him having had a difficulty wath Mz, isnd about a woman. “There is no foundation in it whatever.” Rep.—Have you ever bad avy difficulty with Charley Whyland aboot a womaa at all? Davis—No, sir; I have not. Rep.—tHow about the woman mentioned on E:no -t-u? t, that it was reported you were both sping Davis—She, I dan’t believe, ever saw]Whyland 1 koow she didn't know him, and I am sure no one of the inmatas of the house did. I ted you, 8ir, that woman never entered the cass. fiah‘,—flrm you nmever had a difficulty with ‘Why ? Davis—No, sir; none to speak of. All the trouble we ever had was long ago forgotten. KO MOTIVE AT ALL. Rep.—Then what motive could you have had for the shooting? How do you account for it? Davis—As I raid before, I cau’t account for it. Charloy and I were friends, I presume I was mgrravatea by something else. It seems that I qguarreled withanother person first, and wreaked |y vengesnce on Whyland. At this stage Davis almost broke down. He resumed : 1 can't account for the shooting at all. I tell you 1 have oo recollection of it, and only know what I have read since in the papers, sud I think they are trestiog me too barshly. - Rep.—Do Fou expect to get clear ? Davis—I have no such ides. Bat the State’s An:.msyhu told me to-day that I would have to RXADY FOR TRIAL ON WEDNESDAY, and, s8I hive no lanver yet, it barely gives me time to prepare a defense. Iexpect to suffer, =ud I deserve it, but 1 hope not to hang. While life 1zsis thers is hope. .

Legal miods seem to be of the opiuion that Davis cannot be hung under our laws, while the ‘publie think differently, and demand his execo- tion. Able lawyers argue thst it Davis cam prove ineanity at the time, it will go in extenua- tion of his crime, but being under the influence of liquor will not exonerate him. They hold that o fair-minded jury will convict him of murder a8 defined by our Btatutes, which demand malice aforetbougnt. ~ Thia, they hold, cannot be sbown under the circumstapces. Thero wss o revions threalening, and no motive for the crime, which was committed with- out premeditation. Consequently, it could be oothing but manslaughtar, the grades of which are clearly defined in the statutes. THE LEGAL GENTLENEN were also of the opinion that something shonld be doue to nid the city of the gamblers and 1he bunxo-atesrers now infesting it. They thiok lamp-posts verv convenient for the business snd some dozen of thess rascals swnog up by a vig- ilenos committes wonld have & very wholesome sffect, and they think the eooner it is donme the better. The commencement sbould be made with Mike McDonald, who, they say. is allied with certain city officials, who seo that he is kept fres from the law, and 40 carry on his nefarious business unmolested for a cartain fingncial conmderation. Yet, they say, bis bouss is the headquarters of all the bunko-ateorers, and be controls and bas organ- ized the gang. PUBLIC FEELING. The general vublic opinon is strongly againat Davis, and they demand that he, Jugnyao‘xgx, snd Mariin be made examples of, and at once. Here, within a short i three unpro- voked ~and cold-blooded murders wers committed, and something shonld bs done to put donn this terrible lawleasness. Thers isa determination to rid the citv of the gamblers and thieves. and the inattention of the poiice within the past two days has agein emboldened Sieas Seatepiey. Tarts Best.

P —_— A GCAMBLER'S LIE, IT I8 EASILY DIKPOSED OF. A desperats effort bas been made by the gamblers to blacken Mr. Whyland's character, and totry to let out Davis by alleging that the forme: had sbused a woman with whom the lat- ter was on intinate terms, or to wWhom he wes Telated, and that this alleged outragecus con- Qoct was the cause of the murder. It basalso been statad that, on a osrtain evening last week, Chis woman ebol st Whylaad afier ba bad suuek her in the street. The following affidavits and letters make clead work of this fabrication: o the Editor of The Chicado Tribume : Cm0Ag0, Nov. 27.—An article in this eveniug's Post and Mail etates that the late Mr. Charles D, Why- 1and was anot at by a woman on Thursday night at 11 o'clock ezactly one week before he was murdered. I wish to state that it is eutirely false, as Mr. Wayland was in my compeny from early in the evaming until sbout 1 o’clock, when he entered bis room on that par- ticular night. 'And no such occurrence could have taken place at any time daring the past two years with- out my knowledge, as I have been very intimately as- sociated with him during that time, Hoping you will insert this {n your paper and correct the impreasion wuch an articls is calculated to produce, I am, yours Tespactfully, E. D. BarLey, Carner Monroe street and Alichigan avenue. NEVER WAS THERE. " The statement that Whyland and Davis' mis- tress were in the babit of vieiting Bacheldor's restaurant is thus summarily disposed of : ty of Chica uly sworn, de; a says that he is ln‘:l,n loye and clerk of J.

To the Editor of The Ckicago Tribune : CaICAGO, h;ov. 27.—% Law-Abiding Citizen,"in your isue of the 27th, appeals to Supt. Hickey to nd the city of the gamblers, thieves, and bunko-steerers that infest ir. Does he mot know how utterly fatile all such appesls sre? Tt is well known that official bas ability, and that he understands bis buosiness well. Ho knows every prominent ruffian and law-breaker better than most law-abiding cirizens know the prom- inent merchanta of the city, He baslong bad the force and ability to drive all our pests from our midst in a few weeks, if not days. It is, therefore, well established by past experience that he will nmot, and never intends to, unless compelled. How shall be be com- pelled ? DBy a superior officer. That officer being now our notoriously-incompetent Msayor, we can look for mo aid in that quarter. We must exert ourssives at the next city election, and see that some man like Gen. Chet- lain is made Mayor. In the interval, les a com- mittes of safety be anpointed,—ons of such numbersand respectability s to awe even our police force, as did the Citizens' Guard that de- fended our city after the great fire. 1in the First and Second Wards it should be large enongh to thoroughly awe the gamblers and thieves. Many citizens may not like the idea of doing police duty. Is itnot pecessarvin view of tho fact that our dwellings are entered nightly in lu%a pumbers (this i3 0o exaggeration, a8 Iam sble to prove); that assaults from the ruffian class are pumerons ; and that an absolutely nnpro- voked murder can be committed in broad day- light by one of the class go favored our pres- ent City Government? Byall means let us have a coramittee of eafety now, and a Mayor with ability, firmness, and respectability next year. Axormen LAw-ABIDING CITIZEX. 'DEFESSE OF NOTORIOUS CRIMINALS. To the Editor of The Chwago Tribune : Crrcaco, Nov. 27.—I koow withont rsking what lewyer wonld rush to the legal defense of the murdsrer of Charles Whyland—if ot de- terred by the ountery sgainst McDonsald and the gamblers; becauss I know what class of lawyers bave prevented the conviction of the criminal classes in our midet. I care mot what may be ihe etignette of the legal profession which claims that it is wrong to refuse to defend when asked the most notorious of publie crimi-~ nals. This is a false notioo, and when carried, ss it has been, to the extrame, highly pernicious tc society and the en- forcement of law and order. To thiz false sanse of duty—which eolists the brightest and best intellects in defense of the moat depraved crimigais—do we owe the lax and elow adminietration of justice and tue virtusl subversion of law. No Legisiature in the world can frame_a statute which some sbrewd lawyer may not destroy in_ behalf of some abando<ed criminal whom he is hired todefend. This ex- plains why criminal procedure has been a farce and the psople have been compelled to resort, in self-defenss, to vigilance committees and lynch- law. I hope tbe time will come when all talent- ed and respectable lawyers will scorn—for any bribe—to soil their talents by the defense of no- torious and abandoned ciiminals who are thus enconraged to break the laws and renew their warfare on soeiety. 8. IF JUSTICE 18 NOT DONE. To the Editor of The Chicaco Tribune : Caxcaco, Nov. 27.—The wanton and deliberate ‘murder of poor Whyland is but the natural fruit and consequence of the toleration and even protection afforded by the city authorities to the gamblerr and desperadoes who infest the city. Your remarks on the sgbject in to-dey's Tris- USE are worthy of most serions attention, not only by the officials whoae inefficiency or worso has been the indirect cause of the foul deed, but also by the citizens of Chicago, upon whoa now rests the grave responsibility of seeing that prompt and slern jnstice is done. There is but one feeling amongst decent peopls, and that is, that things have now come fo such a pass that, at all hazards, this horde of gam- bling and murderous biackguards who block up our sidewalks in their numbers and insolonce, looking out for their prey, must be driven out from our midst. It is tho last straw that breaks the camel's back. Itis sbout broken. Bbould justico pow miscarry, there will be immediate stepa taken for the formation of a vigilance commuttee whose early duty, efter disposing of Whyland's asssesin, will be to give notice to each of the fraiernity to leave the city within twenty-four hours, under the pensity of ‘‘eus per enn."‘krua [ '&EA l.('n‘oemnfl many of them are 8 8. ly **8pol P‘“g‘? ! MY PLACE OF BUSINESS.” To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Cacaco, No, 27.—McDonsld twice slldded in bis lying lester to a placs of business. Where is it? If he means * The Store,” be once made oath when arrested for gambling that *The Stora* was not his place of business. He then denied gambhng, acd now admits it, He calls bimeelf * a stranger to drink.” What elss is he a strangerto? Well may he sppeal in confi- dence to the Chief of Police for = cemificate of good character. Is it a written one? One would infer from Miko's ** meekness * that “The Btore™ was s quiet a8 s church, and that be bad religious services of some kind there. If McDonald bas rothing to do with gamblers, and naver bacomes ** interested in their cases,” 85 he says, why is it that when any gambler or tuief gets into difficulty he at once rushes round to bis lawyer and himself gives bail, as he has done in hundreds of cases? Wbat man mortgages his property and goes bail for strangers and enemles, for confidence men, bunko-ropers, thieves, and jail-birds, as Mo- Donald does, without having something more than a special *interest in their casea”? L. ARE OUR OFFICIALS PRIVATE GAMBLYRS ? To the Editor of Th Chicaro Tribume: Cmoago, Nov. 27.—The reasons why the gam- blers have been 80 long protected by the police, avd why such bonds of eympathy and union subsist between the gamblers aod certain offi- cialy, sre not &0 mysterious when understood. It i nos political influence alone, nor the per- contage—sometimes large—which Mike McDon- ald and his crew divide with the Riog, which fully scoonuts for the close allance and frienduip which exists betwesn them.

AN IMPOSING DISPLAY. Special Dispatch to The Chizago Tribune. Nzw Yoz, Nov. 27.—The dexonstration to- day in honor of the dead Vice-President was the most imposing military snd civic display since the burial of Horace Greeley, three years ago, It was not equal to the display on that ocossiod, and could not compare with the exhibition of grief observable on the occasion of the burial of Lincoin. When Lincola's body was passing through the city everv house on Broadway and Fifth avenuo was draped in mourminz. When the bodv had reacted the Thirtioth Street De- pot, 3 miles from the place of its raception, the rear of the procession Dot filed into Broadway.

BosTox, Nov. 27.—The tribute to the mem- ory of Henry Wilson, paid by the citizens of this commonweath at noon to-day in Faneuil Hal!, was in every respect a testimonial which evincea the general feeling of grief which per- vades the community. The epeakers were felic- itous and touching in their allusions to the de- parted. The tnbute of Gov. Gaston was 6pecially beautifal, and the feeling and tender reminiscenses of Judge Hoar were listened to with close attention. The trbutes to Wileon, psid by Mr. Adams, Mr. Banks, and Mr. Roffin, were marked by great diecrimination, Tho resolutions by 3Mr. Joha D. Loug met with unanimous approval. At the conclusion of the meeting, Mr. William Lloyd Garrison, who was present, was the recipient of attontions from Lord Houghton, the Hon. Robert C. Winthrop, the Hon. Charles Fraocia Adams, and others. Mr. Garrison’s feeble healt’s prevented his speaking. The interior of Fanenil Hall was COMPLETELY SHROUDED WITR RMELEMS OF MOURK- e, tastefully fostooned on the galleries and from cornices of the hall, while streamers of the na- tional eolors mingled with black and white, ra- diated from flags tn the centre of the celling. A bust of the departed statosman was placed upon the platform, and the clock at the opposite end of the ball was covered with black cloth, in the centre of which, wrought in silver, was the monogram of the ddceassd sur- rounded by s laurel wreath and bordered with silver fringe. The windows were darkened with black drapery, and the effect was height- ened by covering the spaces between them with white cloth. The gallers-front was coversd completely with biack drapery, caught up at the pillacs and half way batween them with white knots, Lower down, heavy bands of white and black bunting ware draped. The effect was grand but gloomy, the mingling of the sunlight and light of the laming gas-{ets supplying all that was nesded to complete the funorsal ap- pearance of the place. THE HON. CHABLES FRANCIS ADAMS spoke as follows : ‘The country has met with a severs loss, So much has already been well said ana written tonching the dlstinguished man whose departuro we are assembled to mourn, that I shall not venture to enlarge upon the character of his public services. Perhaps few persons ‘woo bave reached nis eminence in America have been actually on terms of acquaintance and familiarity with ¥0 great a portion of tue population as Henry Wilson, ‘Throughout his career he was essentially and intensely man of the people, and too, withoat being a demagogue, I feel as if I had s right to speak of bim from e:rg kmowledgo, because it bappensd to me to enter 1n the same year with him upon the field of pab- lic life, It was in 1840, thirty-five years ago, the well remembered era of the Harrison campaign, thal we were first introduced into the Legislature of this Com- monwealth, and there we remained in ome or the otber branch for sever.l years. In such bodies it is not hard soon to penstrate the character of com- pacions, With Henry Wilson it wus my fortuno to discover unity of centiment on some im- portant questions then springing up. The Comsequence was the growth of & _ym- pethy which lasted for msny sears, It ia for this reason that I vanturs to spesk of his charactsr with some confidence.

He lold ‘me once with his own lips, when struggiing with his ditficulties, that he had never had more than thres ‘months! achooling, yet he overcame this obstacle by his steady exercise of will. The strongest motive to it ‘was doubtless his natural propensity to political affairs. He may fairly te described as n politician from his cradle. But connected with his ruling passion he had &n innate tendency to_discriminsts correctly between right and wropg. This saved him from belng » demagogue. He soon took his side in what was then univerealy regardea as a most desperate venturo— opposition to the alave power of that day—and ha stuck to through thick apd thin, good and bed fortune, untll the re- flex of public opinion, which could scarcely have anticipated in his lifetims, brought to bim an ample recompense. Yet hus elevation to the second office in tho land msde no difference in his heart or his head, He was the vame modest, nnas- suming man on the last dsy when I saw him, bul month or two_since, that ho had been in 1841, when, as tne cobbler of Natick, he first stepped his foot into the Honssa of R-presentatives of chusetts, Firm in the maintennce of his own prlndpl:;; hebad yet one characteristic of great valae, Ha was s kindly disposition toward oppoments, ‘which made him concillatory in all conflicts.

Swain, of the whaleship Lydia Folger, cf Nantucket, after a crnise of eighteen or twen- ty months in the Pacific, foand himself, together with half a dozen other commanders of the floet, obliged to sesk some port for waler and pro- visions, aod finding themselves only 1,000 miles from Canton, China, dstermined to make for thst place, where they would probably fina some Ametican vessel homeward bound, and they could send to, or perhaps hear from, tbeir friends. Aocordingly they eailed for that port, and suocceeded beyond their expecta- tions, not only baviog & chanoe to send letters, baut also receiviog _sev- eral from home; and the Chinese Maodarin of the port also showed them great courtesy, and after gething well supplied with provisions they determiued, s & mark of appreciation of the mandarin's kindness, to make = big dinger for him on board one of the ships and invite the American commanders of other ships lying there to be present a!so. The Lydis Folger was tixed upon as the one most convenient for such a par- pose. Capt. Swain made great preglmfionu. sod procured all the Chinese dishes he could, and arraoged them at the head of the table where the Mandarin was seated in atate, 5o that if he did not like the food provided for the Americans be at Jeass couid have something he could eat. But one important thing they forgot to pronde, and that was an interpreter, but Capt. Swain was equal to the emergency, and bow- ing wnth grest solemnity sod ail man- ner of ocootortions, ss near like the interpreter a8 pssible, he presented tae different dishes with his own hands, saving all the Chinese words he could bring to mind : “ Ching, ti-ang, 8in, chow, chong,” withont any rega.d to, or indeed knowing, their meaning. The Msndarin received everything gracioasiv, and ching-chang-chowed in return mithout evea asmile, The dinner ended with apparent satis- faction to all parties, aod they showed the Chi- nese officer over the 80iD and escorted him to tho shore mth great ceremony. That evenicg a Chinese Goverument ship of the largest class came into port, and the next day the Mandarin, po: to be oatdooe 1n politencss by thoes he con- sidered barbsrians, invited them all to dine with him snd the Admiral oo board this ship. Thev sccepted, and wers surpnsed to find thsmselves supplied with their own kind of food, the Chmese believing it was part of their religion to eat such things, and the Mandsrin and Admiral waited upon them with thei#® own hands, presenting the dishes with such words of English as they knew ) for tnstance, with apiate of beef the Mandarin would say, * bale, shipee, walkee, hat, estee,” bowing at the same time moat &)lvfmmdly. or tne Admiral, twisting himself and touching bis forehead in token of deepest respect. would pre- sent a plaze of cheese, saying : . ** Melicun, gun, boat, sail, rope, eatee;” umatii the Amer‘cans oonld hardly keep from laugbiog outright.
