Buchanan, and | they further find that the shooting was acciden- tal.’ Buchanan was then discharged, but was mubsequentiy rearrested by, Officer ‘Kenner. charged with an assault and battery on Daniel Dines, and was locked up for a oaring. Officers Kenner and Markwood, who sum- moned the jury, failed, it seems, to get im- tant witnesses before the inquest, and the impression of the officers and the jury was that a full statement had not been made on the hear- ing. Officer Kenuer, after he had rearrested Tines and questioned him, became awate that the most important witnesses had not given their testimony before the coroner's inquest, and this morning he brought the w' be- fore Mr. Closs, who, to the conclusion that it was A CASE OF MURDER, and accordingly has made out a’ new warrant against Buchanan, charging him with wilfall murder. Buchanan was oe gee at the police court and pleaded not guility, stating that he ad been discharged once. ‘The judge replied that the court before which he was tried was not the court to make a fina! decision in sach cases. Officer Kenner testified that he rearresied Buchanan. Mr. John Rye testified that he lives in the neighborhood ‘of the honse where the killing teok place, and saw Buchanan go into his house and heard him say, Apna, if you den't get ont of the way I’ll shoot ySa;" heard a dis- pute and in a moment heart a shot fired. A boy named Braxton testified that he heard Buchanan say that he was GOING TO SHOOT SOME ONE. Daniel Dines testified that he was on the cor- ner of the street taiking with his brother when Buchanan came up and threatened to shoot him. at the same time drawing out a revolver. He then went into his house and in a few min- utes he shot his wife. Buchanan said he had some witnesses, but they were not present in court. He denied ever making use of the language charged by the witnesses. The judge committed him for a further hearing, remarking that it looked as if it might be either a case of murder or man- slaughter. Se Tae 9TH Street Pavement Case—The Answer of Hewitt, Lewis & Co.—The respondents m the case of W. B. Parisen, who filed a bil! few weeks since, in the Equity Court, against Thes. Lewis. D. F. Hamlink and R. C. Hewitt, for an injunction to restrain them from repair- ing and completing the 9th street pavement, have filed their answer. They make the fol- points: - That the partnership for supplying the means and doing the work was between Lewis and Hamlink alone, though Hewitt had a cer- tain interest as betweerf himseif and Lewis, and Farisen had an interest by a separate agree- ment between himself and Hamlink, by which Parisen, for a consideration, was to superintend the work and apply the principles of his patent tots. | g them, came That the work was done Parisen’s directions, and any defects are at- tributable to him, and that the work «one when be was personally present and superintending, as cn 9th street at the intersection of Pennsy!- varia avenw ring War absent. kl. That Parisen has readized from Hamlin’ according to and on parts of #th street, needs ach as the work done when he is inter. est and that represented by himin the contracts anc work to Lewis, who was ready to proceed with the work and to remedy and repair all de- fee's inthe same when restraine: by the court, and would have done so by this time atali the we hac hg not,been thus restrai parties to the suit, as well a have been greatly benetited lowed to do so. 5 { the railroad track on 9th street, and the fact that the rails were not’ laid atthe time the pavement was put down, was one of the principal causes of the defects in ed, and t he public he hav abe al- that pavement. ¢ih. That Parisen fond no fanit w he manner in which the work was being done un- til his demands upon Hamlink dor money ceased te be complied with, in advance of the possible ascertainment of profits, which cannot be any- thing like the sun which he claims tuey wil: be, but that when his demands for more 1 were refusedshe at once began his efforts to hin- der, embarrass and injure them as much us possible. The answer of Hamlink concurs in the al ints, and he further says that the conda arisen, in the above respec! to cooperate in the necessary repairs and work to be done, induced him te transfer the whola work to Lewis, as he had previously been auth- orized by Pariven todo, and that he has been and is ready and willing to account to and ser- tle with Parisen, in accordance with the agrec- ment between them. The case will probably be heard during the coming week. A Queer Srectwen or ¢ Dear Mute.—The written tially educated deaf mutes liar.
