John Nuse Would Have Shot James Camp- bell if He Had Been In. John Nuse, an old resident of East Wash- ington, who wns for along time employed in the navy yard, was in the dock of the Police Court this morning for carrying a revolver and for making threats. Policeman Buckmaster and Mr. James Campbell were the prosecuting wit- nesses, Campbell, it appeared in the testi- mony, resides in boarding house on 11th street southeast and it was at that house that Nuse appeared Saturdas, it is supposed, for the purpose of shooting Campbell.

" was al thal “the fotonleated vistipr "ald, bet Mr. Campbell was not at home and the ‘policeman responded in bis stead. ‘Mr. Campbell gave his testimony and Jud Miller asked him what was the cause of y is reply. ‘Jealous of what?” inquired the court. “His wife,” replied Campbell. “How long have you known his wife “About eighteen months, and I never knew a more perfect lady.” ‘The prisoner was sworn in his own defense and he attributed bis trouble toa few glasses of beer. He said he was unable to tell why he carried the pistol, except that he had been drinking. “But there was some trouble between you and Mr. Campbell,” remarked the court. “Yes,” rexponded Nuse, “I had to leave my wife on his uccount. Judge Miller told him that he had better not drink if it was gding to affect him in this way. “If Mr. Campbell had been home Satur- day night when you called,” said the judge, “he would never have been here today to give | evidence. You went there for the purpose of | killing Mr. Campbell, and it was not your fault because you did not succeed.” ‘The prisoner was required to give #500 bonds or go to jail for six months for threats end a fine of $20 or sixty days was imposed tor the pistol. —_—-——-— A FATAL CAVE- [Ne Wm.
