SENDS WOMAN BACK T0 JAIL Judge Lawlor Commits Lulu Wilson for Contempt. ————— Prosecution Probably Will Submit Case This Morning. Five days’ imprisonment in the County Jail evidently had little or no effect on | the refractory temper of Lulu Wilson, the habitue of the under world, who passed the marked coins to ex-Police Officer Alexander. When she was called t6 the | stand yesterday morning in Judge Law lor's court she again refused to testify. | For her refusal she was given five days | more in the County Jail. With an air | | as the first question was addgessed to her | of insolence she stepped from the stand ‘Wllh a declaration to the effect that \though she might be sent to jail she | | 'never would testify. As the case will in | all probability -be submitted to the jury | this morning, Lulu Wilson will undoubt- edly not receive any further punishment | for her contempt of court. Secretary Cadwallader of the Police Commission was the first witness “called to the chair. He testified from the rec- ords of the Police Commission that Alex- | ander was a member of the Police De- | partment on the night he is accused of | accepting the marked coins from Lulu | Wilson and that he was regularly ap- pointed a policeman on April 14, 1867. When Lulu Wilson was called she as- sumed her usual defiant attitude as soon | by Assistant District Attorney Robert | Ferral. His question was, “I show you | now people's exhibit A, consisting of cer- tain marked coins, and ask you If you | had these coins In your nossession on the night of December 4 last?” |- “] refuse to answer that question,” sald Lulu Wilson, “‘on the ground that I am now a respectable woman, living with my husband and child, and that any question T might answer here would tend to de- | brief notice that had been given to | ¢ throughout the State and | -corations will be in keep- the spirit of St. Valentine and thorough- | will novel in the extreme.

It was perfectly obvious that she had been previously in- | | structed how to act and that she was | following her instructions to the letter. | Judge Lawlor read to her sections of the Code of Civil Procedure regarding | | the rights of witnesses and then Informed | her that she had given no legal reason for her refusal to answer the question. | The woman, however, was still obstinate. Attorney Ferral insisted that she be again committed to jail for contempt. Alexander's attorney objected. He argued that the question which had been put to her was not pertinent to the issue in that the fact that Alexander did accept | the marked coins from the woman had | been admitted in the opening argument. The court asked the Wilson woman if | she desired time to reflect and on her | replying that she did not and that she | did not intend to answer any questions, | she was again committed Into the custody | of the Sheriff for five days. | ~Chiet of Police Wittman, Police Officer Wilson and Mrs. Powell, the proprietor | of the Queen lodging-house, were put on | the stand to testify regarding the Wil- son woman's character. No material evi- dence was gained from their testimony. | The case against Lulu Wilson for con- tempt was called in Judge Mogap's court It was postponed | at the morning session. | until February 17. | CLAIMS McCARTNEY DOES NOT FEAR THE POLICE Nonpariel Manufacturing Company Appeals to Court to Get Pos- session of Store.
