May Was sworn, He testified about three weeks previous fo the death of deceastd, when he went there a small child opened the door for him and .tan out and broughtina neighbor. The neighbor came in and struck a@ light, wi he Went up stairs and found @ woman in bed he understood tobe Mrs. Tuell, * Mr, Garsington desired toprove by. Dr. May that Tuell, was in the hapit of maltréating his wife, and that he (the doctor) had attended deceased while saffering from injuriesinflicted: Counsel tor defense Objected; and excepted tothe ruling of the Court allowing the testi- ammoily io be given. Dr, May testified that he found Mrs. Taell to be ihe woret beaten Woman he had ever seen, She was utterly powerless, and could notmove alegorarm. The bruises and contusions ap- peared to have been caused by some blunt, round instrument—something stronger than 2 hand. it looked as though.a heavy piece of wood had caused the contusion.. Such conta- sions as were seen on Mrs. Tuell’s body were sufficient to cause death if repeated. Subse- quent tothe time above referred to, witness testified to having visited the deceased. ~~ Cross-examined.— Witness paid the visits above referred to two or three weeks before the death of Mrs. Tuell. Does notthink the wounds witness saw occasioned death, Sergeant Cronin, of the Fourth Ward, testified to the factof haying. conversation with the prisoner with regard to beating his wife, and that Tuell at that tiie said the clab he hit his wife with was not & large one. . On cross-examination, witness testified that Tuell told him he had beaten his wife because she got drunk, and witness then advised the prisoner to go home. and both of them’stop drinking, and they could then live happily to- gether. Tuell said he had made up his mind to stop drinking. Witness cautioned the pri- soner to stop drinking on account of the man- ner in which he and his wife Wasliving. They lived more like cats and dogs than zaman beings. Mrs Tneli frequentiy came’ to the station-house in the dead ot winter, sometimes bareheaded and barefooted, and complained that her husband had drivew her out of the house. Witness never knew Mrs. Tuell to get drunk. Had never seen the prisoner under the infiuence of liquor. : Mrs. Elizabeth Bartkolemy.— Witness knows Cornelius Tue, the prisoner, and knew his wite, who lived next door to witness. Witness saw the deceased on the Tuesday previous to her death, in the afternoon. She did not see Tuell on the following doy, but heard Mre. Tuell crying, apparently up stairs, and heard Tuell call herdown. The fuss between Tuell and his wife appeared to be in the front room downstairs. Mrs. Tuell called witness twice, when Mr. Tuell asked her whoshe was calling, and thex witness heard him whipping or striking her, but does not know wha! he was striking her with. This fuss lasted an hour, then everything was quiet, and in a few moments witness heard a noise, as though articles were being thrown abont, and after- wards heard something fall very heavy from up stairs. Witness heard nothing more-about thistime. Witese heard the prisoner beating the deceased within two weeks of her death, and heard her say, “That will do, Con.” It seemed that he would give her a knock once in 8 while. Witness has heard Tuell beating the deceased right often—about once or twice a week—fora month or two. The beatingsseemed as though they were with his feet. nell had been beating his wife at intervals ever since witness was living there, (about two years.) After the beating she received five weeks pre- vious to her death witness saw deceased, and she looked badly used. Last summer deceased went away from the house. By Mr. Bradley.— Witness khew both Tnell and wife very well. It appeared Mrs. T. had been drinking. When she had been drinking she was very noisy. Witness had seen her in liquor, but could not say that she was drank, and on one occasion witness had her arrested, and on account of her arrest she (deceased) wentaway. Witness described the house, tes- tifying that there is no hand rail to the stairs, and thonght a person who tell would have had a bad fall. Witness went in the house on Fri- day after one of the beatings, and found the turniture broken &ud knocked about.. The de- ceased had told witness that her husband gave ber plenty to eat, but errs 3 to wear. On one occasion it appeared that they were scuffling together. ‘ By the prosecution. Witness had seen the deceased in liquor about once a week, but could not say that she wagsso drank as not to be able to stand. Witness could tell when 4e- ceased was in liquor, but she appeared to keep at. her work—washing. Witness never saw her strike her husband. When the last fuss occurred, she did not hear Mrs. Tuell strike a blow; it all appeared to be on the side of the husband. By the detence.—Witness could not state positively that all the blows were given by the prisoner. Dr, Albert King testified that he was called on to make post mortem examination of one Jane Tuell, at Glenwood Cemetery. itness went out with Dr. Bogan, and they examined the head, where the most of the injuries were, and found theskull broken, and on each temple an abrasion of the skin on the forehead, con- tusions above the left eye, and on the left lower jaw. The back was bruised all over, and there ‘was & severe bruise on one wrist, The blows on the head appeared to have been with a hard, but not sharp instrument, and could have been made witha hammer. Witness is certain that death was caused by the wounds on the skull, There was no evidence of disease about the woman. By the defense.—The deceased must have been unconscious after the first of these frac- tures. The Court at five o'clock adjourned until this morning. The jury was taken to the Metropolitan Hotel, under charge of a bailiff. —_—_—__+~0 2 + _____ OFFICIAL. Court of Inquiry Cases of Generals McCook, Crittenden, and Negiley.

No question has anywhere been ra: the conduct of General Ni Py on i le batde ot Chi September, the first day of f maugs.* ' He commended on that day his entite divis ion, and it appears from the eviden¢ge ua bis conduct throughout was creditable. ly on the second day General Negiey was assigned a postion fm the line on the right of General Brannan, from which he was relieved between eightand ten o'clock by Wood's divis- ion, , He was then ordered to take a position on the extreme left, but his division having been re- lieved ata later hour than was expected, hi< reserve brigade was sentmeantime in advance of the others, and became se {from bia, taking a place in the line nnder General Baird. Subsequently another of his brigates was placed in line on the Jeft of General Brannan, and under the command of that officer. -@A.little later in the day, as General Negley was moving to @ position on Missionary Ridge, to which he had been ordered by General Thomas, he gaveup toGeneral Branuan, on his urgent appeal for support, the largest regi- ment of his inst brigade; retaining for himse!t only. two weak regiments and four comparies of another regiment. ‘Lhe point to which he was directed was in rear of the center of the Jine. Here he found some artillery; other batteries and parts of batteries. ed him, and itappears in evidence that ke at last fifty guns under his care with only the small infantry suppor: above referred to, namely : twosmall regiments and four companies of another regiment, in al} about six or seven hundred men. The gap in the line made by the withdrawat @f Wood’s division, the rout of the entire rignt, and the unresisted advance of the enemy from that direction, as well as the advance of the enemy from the leit of the line, the enemy hav- tngontianked: and driven in @ portion of tne left also, subjected General Negiey to such hazard of losing this large park o1 artillery as made itexpedient in his judgment to withdraw it to & point on the Dry Valiey road, abouttwo or three miles trom sville. It appears in evidence that this movement ie cca in good order, and all the arti!- sav Here General Negley met Generals Divis and Sheridan with portions of their commands aud considerable bodies of disorganized truops from various commands. He co-operated with the division command- eré @bove referred to in taking such measures as the exigencies of the occasion seemed to re- quire, and toward fyening retired to Rossville. General Negiey exhibited throughont the day (the second of the battle) and the follow- ing night great activity and zealin the dis- charge, of his duties, and the court do not find in the evidence before them any grouna of censure The impression which seems to have been Nogley had ordeged one of his brigades io the Negley or one of hi igades to the rear is not sustained by the testimony. It appears in evidence that Brigadier General ‘Wood on one or more occasions, at the head- quarters of the army of the Cumberland andin the presence of the commander of that army and a portion of his staff, indulged in severe Teflections upon the conduct of Major Gen- eral Negley, Spplying to him coarse and offen- sive epithets. placed upon the stand before the court he failed entirely to substanti- 5 any charge or ground of accusation against ‘im.
