Against the Actress Until Her ry Had Been Heard, but Her Law- yers Decline to Permit Her to Testify. MR, JEROME PLEADED I VAIN FOR INDICTMENT Pawnobroker Who Sold the Revolver Believed to Be H. Stern, of No, 516 Sixth Avenue. In spite of the pleas of District-Attorney Jerome the Grand Jury this afternoon positively r used to indict “Nan” Patterson for the mur- der of Bookmaker “Caesar” Young without first hearing the girl's story f.ym her own lips. Mr, Jere 1¢ labored long with the Grand Jury, but a majority of the members of that body were against an indictment in the present state of th case, After Mr. Jerome left the Grand Jury room the members got to- gether and issued an invitation for the Patterson girl to appear before them ‘o-morrow. The invitation was.in the shape of a letter to Levy & Unger, counsel to “Nan” Patterson, Messrs. Levy & Unger had a long conference at their office over the matter. They sent a letter declining to permit their client to appear and testify on the ground that it is improper to call an accused person before the Grand Jury. ‘The District-Attorney is believed to have impo ortant information con- cerning the pistol with which Young was! killed, "and a pawnbroker who sold the pistol to a man and a woman last Friday was one of the i impor- tant witnesses. HIS NAME DISCLOSED. Byery effort was made to conceal the name of this pawnbroker, but he was positively identified in court as H. Stern, of No. 516 Sixth avenue. When Mr. Stern was asked about the story he told Mr. Jorome he refused to-taik and hurried away. The pawnbroker was unable to identify Nan Patterson as the woman who visited his place at the time the pistol was bought. The District-At- torney then sent for Mr. and Mrs. Morgan Smith, the brother-in-law and sister of the accused woman. The pawnbroker was instructed to remain within call so that he could see the Smiths. Detective-Sergt. Flay, who was sent out to find J. Morgan Smitn, Nanj Patterson's brother-in-law, reported to Mr. Jerome late this afternoon that he had not been able to find the man. Smith has disappeared, and as soon as he heard this the District-Attorney went betore Judge Newburger and secured a body attachment for him. MRS. YOUNG A WITNESS. Among the witnesses caled co-day were Mrs. Young, the widow; Will- jam Luce, Young's brother-in-law; Mrs. Bernard McKean, of New Rochelle, Mrs, Young's sister; John D. Millin, Young's business partner; Dr. Riggins, of Hudson Street Hospital; Capt Sweeney, of the Leonard street station; Policeman Junior, Detectives Quinn and Judge and J. Morgan Smith. It was said to-day that the police working on the case had learned that Nan Patterson held up Young with a pistol and attempted to shoot him in the Imperial Hotel about two weeks ago. This story is said to have come from ‘was living at the Imperial with the prisoner at the time, it is said. CORROBORATES MEYER IN STORY OF SHOOTING. I confirmation as to detail is given to the story of the killing of “Caesar” Young, as told to The Evening World exclusively yesterday by Algernon C. Meyer, in.a statement made to-day by Louis Katzenberg, as a salesman by the Knickerbocker Suspender Company, at Nos. 27 and 29 Walker street. Meyer, in his statement of how he saw Young shoot himself, asserted that just after the shooting.a man;ran out fromthe sidewalk and jumped onto the step of the cab, riding down the street. This important witness has not been found. Katzenberg, who was walking up West Broadway from the Frank- lin street station of te “L” road, saw the-cab with the man on the step just below Walker street. He did not see the shooting, nor had: he heard the report of the pistol, but the man standing on the step ofthe cab at- tracted his' attention. When Katzenberg read of the shooting in the newspapers he knew that the cab he had seen was the one in which Young had died, By com- of time he fixed that fact absolutely. Yesterday when he read Meyer's story in The Evening World he determined to break the silence | he had maintained and corroborated the’ statement in so far as it applied to the unidentified man who saw shooting, ran out into the street and jumped on the cab step. Meyer and Katzenberg are both, in a sense, unwilling witnesses. Meyer, had the best of business reasons for not wanting his name to become public in connection with the case. He was to have left the city for the South yes-! terday afternoon and visited the District-Attorney to tell his story in tne| a intere@ts of justee. His stay in New York involves financial loss. Katsen- Lerg hesitated four-days before he determined to tell what he knew. ‘The -District-Attorney is nettled because Morgan Smith, me brother-in-| 13}: law of Nan Patterson, and Mrs. Smith, with whom ehe lived at the st.
