Wiliam Briggs Allowed to Plead Guilty of Manslaughter. This morning, in the Criminal Court. the colored man Wm. Briggs, convicted October 26. 1889, of the murder of Wm. Jones, was placed at the bar to enter aplea of guilty of manslaughter. Briggs was convicted of the murder of Wm. Jones, a fellow laborer on the District work on Columbia avenue, in May, 1888, and was convicted in October following. Motions were made by his counsel for a new trial, which were overruled, and on January 19 following he was sentenced to be bung April 5, 1890, His counsel. J. McD. Carrington and John Cruikshank, took the case to the General Term and the sentence of execution was twice respited and in the meantime the Court in Gen- eral Term granted a new trial. STATEMENT OF COUNSEL FOR DEFENSE. Maj. J. McD. Carrington stated to the court this morning that the prisoner had been brought up and with the concurrence of the district attorney he would plead guilty to man- slaughter. The difliculty, he said, occurred on Columbia avenue and grew out of the defend- ant losing his hat, which he supposed he had found on the deceased. A fight took place and the defendant was beaten, but finally got away from his assailants, who pursued ‘him with stones. He went to his home, washed, gota pistol and returned, and the fatal shot was fired. ‘The defense had c'aimed that the offense was oniy muansiaughter, if it was*not a case of scif-defense, end he (counsel) thought the opinion of the General Term intimated that if ail the testimony had been in the crime would not have been higher than manslaughter. He then sketched the testimony and claimed that on the trial they were deprived of important witnesses, who would have sworn that Jones was pursuing Briggs when he fired and that Briggs was running at the time.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY NOGE AGREES TO THE PLEA. Judge Hoge, the district attorney, after read- ing the docket entrics said that the General Term had found error and had awarded a new trial. The case was now before the court. He as frank enough to say that an intelligent jury might from certain testimony have found a verdict of manslaughter. After going over the ease, with the experience that after the lapse of such a length of time the probabilities were that a jury would not find tae higher offense, he had come to the conclusion to coin- cide with the counsel and ask the acceptance of the plea. THE CHIEF JUSTICE ACCEPTS THE PLEA. ‘The chief justice said that he sat on the case in the General Term and he remembered his impressions then were that if all the evidenco had been given to the jury a verdict of murder would be exceedingly doubtful. He coin- cided with the district attoruey that second trials usually result ia verdicts for the lesser offense, uniess the case is a very plain one. He would allow the course proposed to be taken, the defendant then entered his plea of guilty of manslaughter and was remauded for sentence, AMUSEMENTS. Atpavan’s.—“Good Old Times,” which made its first appearance in Washington at Albaugh’s last night, is fitly called, for it is strongly rem:niscent of the good old times when the natural melodrama, appealing entirely to tho emotions of the gallery gods, was the only drama worth considering. ‘This G, 0. 'T. is by Wilson Barrett and Hall Caine and represents British penal colony life, not a pleasant sub- ject, but worked out in this instance with most absorbing interest. Love and heroism und sacrifices and guns combine with fine scenery and novel stage mechanics to make a play which everybody ean enjoy, oven though to some it may be somewhag exaggerated. The principal players wore Mr: Atkins Lawrence, Mr. John Glendinning, Mr. f. Fisher, Mr. Charles Coote, Miss Eleanor Cares irs. Joh Glendinning and Miss Maggie Holloway, and they did so well that everybody had to walk before the curtain at the end of the third act. A peculiarly interesting part in make up and character Was that of Spot by Mr. Coote. The comedy by Mr. Fisher and Miss Holloway was bright, and the more serious part by Mr. Law- rence and Miss imes very strong indeed. “Good Uld Times” is a play to see when you feel like enjoying a thorough shaking up, and everybody feels that way now and then.
