The Ex-.Imtge Tbrentciis te llnrm tlie Man Who Scut Hi in te Prison Fur Contempt The Victim's Career. Following are additional particulars of the killing of ex-Judge David S. Tcrrvln a railway dining room at Lathrop, Califor nia, en Wednesday morning, by Deputy U. S. Marshal Nagle. Naglu w as detailed as a special guard ler Justice Stephen J. Field, of the U. S. supreme court. Terry had struck Judges Field and was about te repeat the blew when Nagle fired, killing Terry instantly. An encounter had been feared and the United Slates marshal was detailed te accompany the Justiee by order or the departmeut of Justice. Nngle was arrested and Justlce Field proceeded te San Fran Fran ciseo. When the Southern overland train ar rived in Oakland, a great crowd had col lected. Justlce i lelil was at ence besieged by United Stales officials and newspaper men. Justlce Field maintained his quiet demeanor, and rolleJ te a press represen tative, when asked te narrate the par ticulars of the sheeting, its follews: " I can tell you the story lu'n few words. Fer the last few mouths all manner of re ports, both public and personal, have reached me that Judge Terry had threat' ened te subject me te some lerm of Indig nity If he should happen te meet me. This fact caused the United States marshal te do de do cide te previde such protection as he could during my stay lu this state. When I started for Les Angcles, te held court. Deputy Nagle accompanied me. I le bee m oil te be a rmlct, gentlemanly eQlclal, though I only met him twlce while nwav from Les Angeles. He asked me in that city when I Intended te return, and accompanied me, taking a scat In the sleeping car, oppo site te me. We heard this morn ing that Judge Terry and his wlfe wcre en the train, but paid no attention te the fact. When we arrived at Lathrop, we on en tcred the eating station te get breakfast. I took a se.it at the end of the table, while Nngle "wit en one slde of me. Terry and his w Ife came into tlie room seen after. As t.oen as she mw me she w cut out of the :oem, as I ufterwards learned, returning te the car for her sntchel. Judge Terry rose, and I supiwsed he Intended accompanying her. Instead of doing se, he walked back of me and struck me a heavy slap In the face. I was completely astonished, and, seeing he was making readv te strike again, Nagle cried out, "Step," step," but Terry did net resist, and, as he was raiding his arm a second time, Nagle shot at him, tlie bullet entering his heart. He fell te the fleer, Nagle sheeting a second titiie, but the second shot did net strlke him. Nitgle was arrested at Tracy and taken te Moikten te await the lcsult of the inquest. "That is the complete story, as far as I ptn aware of the facts," said the Justice, in i oncluslen. JUSTICE HELD WAS (IVXtWV.V. Protection was accerded te Justlce Field, It Is claimed, by authority of Uuited States Attorney General Miller, w he telegraphed from Wubnltigteu te the marshal el the dis trict te soe that the person el the Justlce was protected at any hazard. The order exteuded also te Judge Sawyer, of the United States circuit eeurt in Sun Francisce, upon whom Mrs. Terry made a personal assault last year, while en a railway train, accompanied by Judge Terry. The order was based upon this fact and upon threats declared te have been made openly by Terry against Justlce Field. Deputy Mar shal Xagle was directed te otcempany Jus Jus tleo Field, under this erder, and is said te have given Judge Terry lull warning te step when the latter began Lis attack upon Justice Field, and Hied at Teriy when the latter was about te strlke a second time. Mr. Stackpele, ene of the proprietors of tlie hetel, was standing In the deer and ob served Mrs. Terry leave and also took netb of the threatening leek which she cast upon Field. He walked down the loom te where Judge Terry sat, and, addressing him, asked why his wlfe had left the tabic. 'Judge Finld is here," observed .Mr. Stackpele, "and de you think your wlfe would be se Indiscreet as te cause trouble?" " Why de you ask that question ? " bald Terry. " Because I de net wish te have any trouble here," was the answer. " I don't knew," said Terry, quietly, and then he added, significantly . "There might be trouble. " Tliis alarmed Stackpele, and he walked back te the deer, determined te watch Mrs. Terry when she returned. Stackpele was ene of the men who captured Mrs. Terry when she returned and took from her the satchel containing a weapon. A passenger who was en the tialu at Lathrop says that when he licuil the sheeting he rushed out of the car and saw Mrs. Terry with a satchel In her hand. She was trying te open It and he took it from her. She tried te gain possession of It again but fulled. When the satchel was opened afterwards a pistol was found in It. -i Justlce Field left the overland train at the Oakland Ferry, and dreve at ence te the Palace hotel, whero he was Joined by his wife. He was net ni rested, and the notice te the chlef of police, claimed te have been t.ent by the district attorney of San Joaquin, if forwarded in that form, was net carried out. The coroner arrived lu Stockton at neon with Terry's body In a box ceveicdwith white cloth. Mrs. Tery rode lu the ex- Iuess car with the remains, ueeempanied ly sevcral friends of the deceased. When the body was taken off the car she followed and rotle with It In an express wagon te the morgue. She was distressed and said it was a most cowardly murder of an un armed man. An Inquest was held Wed nesday night. Constable Walker took Deputy Nagle from the train at Tracy, and procecded with him te Stockton, whero he is new In jail. District Attorney Whltoerdeiod the arrest of Justice Field upon his arrival In Sau Francisce, and telegraphed the order te the slierlll'ef San Fianclsce. Deputy Mai shal Nagle was taken te Stock ton in a buggy by Censtable Walker, of La throp. Nncle refused te be interviewed. He said : "1 am deputy United States mar shalaind simply did my duty as an elllccr." He was locked tip alone, and seen alter sent for the local attorney. The killing caused extraordinary oxcite excite inent in San Francisce en Weilncday. The scene of the tiagedy Is bJ miles from that city by mil, and Is the bieakf.isting station for tlie Southern overland. The possibility of an encounter between Terry and Justlce Tleld has been rocegnlzcd ever since the Imprisonment of Terry for con tempt of court, ten months age, owing te the known temper of the man who killed United States Senater Brederick in the early dayi of California. David S. Terry was at ene tlme chief justlce of the supreme ceuit of California, and has always been a promlnent figure In tlie political liistery of tlie state. Tlie kill ing of Uredeilck caused, at the time, deep peiseual resentment against Terry by a portion of the peeple of the state, which threatened te tcrmlunle his career in Cali Cali ternla, but he always had a number of ad ad hereuts and remained in llie state, though he has only ence or twlce been befere the peonle for position. no was mameu te Marcili Altliea mil, who claimed te be the wlioef cx-Scnater Sharen, vvbile prosecuting her claim ngitlust thoShaien estate. This brought him Inte a resentful attltude tewatd Justice Field, who last year rendered a derision in the United States circuit ceuit in f in Fiuuiisce denying her claim te lie the wife ersimrun. Mrs. Terry cieatcd u scene lu ceuitdurlug the reading of the decision, charging Jus Jus tleo Field w Ith being corrupt, and as she refused te remain quiet, Justire Field di rected that she be removed from court. When a deputy attempted te carry out the order of the court, she became involved in a personal quarrel with that elllclal and Judge Terry Interfered, drawing a dagger fiem his vast. He was disarmed and both Terry and his wlfe wcre adiudned lu con tempt and coinmlitedToTjall. In the mean time Justlce Field went te Washington te resume his duties ou the bench, reluming te the city six weeks age. Newspaper articles wero printed intimating that It would be dangerous for Justlce Field and Judge Terry te meet personally, as it was thought the latter might uimlt the former, 306 while the fact was also recognized that Justice Field would be quick te resent an attack rrem Terry, knowing that It could only result fatally te one or the ether in view of the lattcrs record. If Judge Terry had Intended te proveko Justice Field, and drew a weapon before the latter could turn Is of course net known, as Deputy Nagle, who Kit opjiesite, prevented this bv firing, resulting In the Instant death of Te"rry. Chief of Police Crowley received a dis patch from Sheriff Cunningham, of Stock ton, te arrest Judge Field and Deputy Marshal Nagle en the arrival of the train at Oakland. Captain Lees at ence left for Oakland. TEMlY's STenMY CABEER. . Dav Id S. Terry was born In Tedd count v. Ky In 1823. When a young man he fought in the Texan war for Independence from Mexico, and afterward studied law and was admitted te the bar. During the geld fever he drifted te California, plunged at ence into politics, and when only 33 years of age waselectcd chief Justice of the state supreme court. He attempted te break up the Vigilantes, who virtually ruled the state at that tlme, and stabbed ene of them who had at tern pled te arrest a friend of Terry. He was imprisoned for several months, but all efforts te make him reslgn his place en condition of his discharge were unavailing, and he was finally re leased. David C. Bredarlck was then a power in California politics. In 1S03 he suggested the idea that the Legislature could eleit United States senators In advance of the vacancies they wero te fill, his aim being te go te the Sonate hlmself. He was bitterly opescd by Dr Gwin, acting United States senator, but In 1858 was electcd United States senator for six years, and te the sur prise of everybody named Gwin as his associate, Gwin pledging himself te relin quish all fed oral patrouage in his (Brod (Bred crick's) favor. But when Brederick be be bo came a follower of Stephen A. Douglas Gwin secured the favor of the administra tion at Washington, and tlie relations bo be bo tvveeii the two men bocame mero strained. The California state campaign of 1859 was an Intensely bitter oue, and thore was a strong oxchange of personalities between Gwin and Brederlck. Terry hated the latter, and publicly doneuncoa him ns an arch traitor. Brederlck next day at a hotel and in Hie presonce of soveral peeple declared that If the Vlailantcs had hanccd Terry they would have dene a righteous act. HE KILLED BRODERICK. Terry sent him a challenge, and the two men met early en the morning of Sop Sep Sop lembor 12, but wero arrested by the pollce and brought befere a pollce magistrate, who discharged thorn. The next night thev again met near San Francisce. Thore were eighty spectators present when the seconds field their conference and the pistols wcrclexamlned and leadod. A half dollar was tossed up, and Judge Terry wen the cliolce of weapeus. Mr. Hayes marked oil the ten paces aud warned the spectators te meve back out of the line of lire. Brederick was the coolest man of his jiarly, his seconds appearing nervous aud ill at case. Mr. Haskell, after partly untying the senator's cravat, stepped baeJc mid wiling his hands. He then removed the cravat. This incident unmanned Brod Bred Bred orick for a moment. Brederlck wero a long surteut, and had a sett woolen hat drawn down ever his brew. Terry Was similarly attired. The requirements of the cede wcre strictly followed. Bonhan scaichcd Brederlck closely for concealed mail, but McKlbben only touched Terry's waistcoat and bowed. Brederick had lest soine of his com;esuro. He wus nervous, aud twitched at the skirts of his surteut. He and Terry had taken thelr positions. Terry steed erect and firm, apparently in different te everything but his thoughts. The pistols wero cocked, and they were de livered te tlie principals. Beuliam slowly read the conditions, and Mr. Colten gave the Instructions as te the firing. The men held the weapons muzzle downward. " Gentlemen, " said Colten, " are you ready ? " Brederick replied after Terry, saying : " I am ready. " " Fire ! One " Thore was a report from Brederick's pistol, followed in a second by Terry's. Fer some reason Brederlck's pistol expleded befere It had been brought te a levcl. The bullet buried itself lu the ground u third of the distance short. Had it geno all the way it would have struck Its mark, for It went in a perfectly dlrect line. The report of Terry's pistol hud hardly died away w lien Brederlck was seen te start. He turned half way round and grasped at the air as though trying te recover his balance. His head dropped and he fell flat en his back, his pale lace unturned te the sky. He lav en the ground while Colten and Haskell supported his head. Dr. Ven Loehn, his surgeon, was tee agitated te be of servlce. The bleed spurted from the senator's wound, and en Loehn did net seem te knew hew te step It. Mr. Brooks Anally stepped feiward. and In the name of Judge Teny otlercd tlie services of his surgeon, Dr. Hammend. But It was of llttle use. The ball had entcred the right breast and passed through the upper lobe of the left lung. Davis, ihe ewner of the ranch, who had been a silent spectator of the duel, started te his feet as Dr. Hammend began cutting away the clothing from the wound, and shouted excitedly : " That Is murder, by Ged I" He moved toward Teiry, but wus re strained. It was fertunate that this remark had been heard only by the Brederick party, for there wero plenty of friends of Terry there, all aimed te the teeth. Terry had net moved. His arms were folded, with the muzzle of a pistol projecting bo be lilud him. He was erect asecr, unda leek of inquiry upon his face, as though he expected it call for a second shot. Ills cool ness and ncrve wero rcmarkable even In that gathering. As he flred he was heard te say: "Ah! I struck him a llttle tee high." Assuied that Brederlck's wound was fatal, he started for his carriage and was followed by his friends. They dreve rapidly te San Francisce, and from thore Terry w ent te hU ranch at Stockten.whonco he quietly awaited events. He was arrested therc en September 23 by two detectives from San ! ranclsce, ami was put under $10,000 bends. ACQrirrKD or MuneEii nv a trick. Terry was arrested and admitted te ball. When tLe excitement was ever he de manded a trial. All the details had been llxed by his friends. He procured a change of vonue from the place w here the murder was committed te Main county, and his friend, Judge J. II. Hardy, huiricd down fiem Mokelumuo HUltotakechurgo of the trial. On the day set for the case Hardy and Terry avpeared In ceuit. The case was called for 1U o'clock. It w as then 'J, and the witnes'-esw cie en their way from San Francisce. The bauds of the court clock wcre set an hour ahead. Hurdy called the case. There wus neither prosecuting at torney nor witnesses prosent, se Hardy discharged the prisoner. Fer his share In that villainous transaction he was iin iin iin poached by the Legislature In 16(52, hurled lreiu the bench, took te drink, and died. Terry left the state for a time, aud during tlie civil war commanded a Confederate regiment from Texas. After the war he returned te California, ami again entered political lift). He wus made a Democratic elector in the presidential campaign of lfrsO aud was the only man en the ticket defeated. About live j cars age he again began te attract geueral attention as the counsel of Sirah Altliea Hill, who claimed te be the wife of the late ox-Senater Sharen, of Nevada. This woman began by suing Sharen for dlvorce and alimony. The plaiutill claimed te hae been privately married te Sharen semu tlme in lesn, Tlie ease ended only a low day age, Mr. ha ren hauiK mcaiiwhile died, in the llnal defeat of the w Oman's claims. Tci rv graduallv monopolized the leading place among her counsel, aud became se in fatuated with her that en January 7, 15S0 soine time after Sharen's death he was married te her in the Catholic church at Stockton, Cal. Terry managed the ea-e in his unual fashion, and was involved in several frays in open court, and en mero than one occa sion drew his pistol en his antagonists. The most serious of these fracases eccurred lu Septciuber last, w lieu the Hill-Sharen case was before Justice rield sitting as United States circuit Judge. Justice Field was reading a decision sustaining the Sharen bident the contention. He was Interrupted by the woman when he was half way thieugh, and accused or having btcu bought by the opposite bide. ' LANCASTER, The judge ordered her Inte custody, but she made a stout fight, In which her husband (Terry) Promptly took part He knocked a deputy marshal across the court-room, anil followed his wife when she was dragged out of court, drawing a dsngoreus-looklng dirk knife, and threatening with death any ene who attempted te keep him from his wife. A desperate struggle ensued bofero he could be disarmed. When Justlce Finld finished reading his decision he sentenced Terry te six months' imprisonment, and the woman te thirty days. Terry petitioned the court for a re vocation of his sentence, but Justice Field refused te threw off n slngle day, and he remained in prison for the full time, being roleasod ou March 3d last. He Thrcntned Anether Jiuluc. Portland, Oregon, Aug. It!. Sews or the tragic death of Judge Terry produced a sensation In this city.

Hvcry one almost was familiar with the sentiment of hatred Terry bere tewanl Justlce Flold, born of the Sharen divorce suit and the Justice's late decision lu that case. A few days slnce a San Francisce paper staled that Terry had threatenen te kill United States Judge Matthew P. Deady, district Judge, if he came te Sau Francisce te try the cases against himself and wife. Soen after the hews of Terry's death reached this city a reporter called at Judge Dcady's chambers and asked him whether he had heard of the threats by Terry. "Nell have net," answered the judge. " But they would net deter me fiem per forming my duty." Thore were five In dictments hanging ever Terry's head, and three against his wlfe arising from the dis turbance in court in San Francisce.

Physicians Without rulth In the Kfllcncy or the Much-Vaunted riuM-lle- suit te be Closely Observed. Drs. S. T. and M. L. Davis have been experimenting w Ith the Dr.Drewn-Scquard elixir. They have Injected eight isitlents. They selected the sheep at the abattoir, supervised Its killing and used the greatest precaution in the preparation or the fluid. Their lmprosslen, from the experiments made, Is that lu n few weeks' tlme it w 111 be shown that thore is nothing in the elixir as a health .restorer. Drs. Davis for the prcsent docliue te say who the patients are, but they may In the near future prepare au felaborate rctert of thelr troatment aud the e licet of the elixir en them from the tlme It was Injected until its effect passed away. Drs. Davis say they bollevo that they can propare from cocoa, brandy aud beef extracts an injection that will have as geed if net better results than the elixir pro pre parod according te the Brown-Sequard formula. They have cencluded net te innke further oxperltnonts for the present, but will do de do vete the closest attention posslble te the effects of the elixir upon the subjects they treated. llaeteiiu In the Fluid. Dr. A. B. Shaw, of St. LcuK who has beeu making microscopic examinations of Brewn-Sequard "elixir," has discovered that the fluid was ollve with countless bacteria, although but three hours had elapsed slnce tlie elixir ttas prepared. Bacillus tuberculosis, the bacillus that Is supposed te cause tuberculosis, wero found In great quantity, thousands being In a slngle drop of the mixture. Mr. Shaw cencluded that the glands wcre from a sheep infected with the bacilli of tubercule. as the mortar and pestle and the distilled water hud been thoroughly storlllzed befere the mixture was made. Dr. Shaw esti mated that In n drachm of the injection millions of these bacilli would have been put Inte the S3'stcm, each ene eapable of multiplying ltseir indefinitely. The dan ger underlying such treatment can readily be bcen and the chances would be ten te ene that tuberculosis In soine form would manifest Itself In the person Inoculated. In two ether trials the bacillus tuberculosis was discovered. The red shaped bacilli wero also found in several samnlcs. Dr. Shaw lays down the fellow lug rules fortlieusa of the elixir: " First. The laity should net use the In jection themselves. "Second. Physicians should net use It until it has been submitted te microscopic examination, te ascertaln whether It Is in fested with bacteria or net, und care should be taken Hint the glands are taken from a perfectly heulthy animal. "Third. All Instruments and vossels should be thoroughly sterilized, and even the distilled water should net be used until oxamlned for bacteria." Tests lu New Yerk. The physicians of New Yerk have net, up te tlie present time, shown that lntorest lu Dr. Brewn-Scquard'H elixir which has been felt by theso of ether cities. A few or them, however, have been making ex periments since the first announcement of the propertics of the rojuvenator. This has been the case at the Loeuils laboratory, which Is an annex te the University Medical collcge. The oxpeilinents will be continued for two months at least, as the operators expect te make valuable tests, the results el which will be published In medical Journals. The experiments have been made by Dr. Loomis and his associate. Dr. By ion. They have inoculated already seven pu tlents, and will expcrlmcnt with fifty or a hundred ethers befere making full state ments about the clllcucy of the elixir. Dr. Byren said yesterday that as yet they did net feel that they had arrived at icsulls worthy of any deilulte conclusion, The elixir which the physicians use Is made from parts of u sheep freshly killed and dlstille 1 water. When ready ler Inoc ulation the fluid, which wen shown te a re porter by Dr. Byren, Is of a mllky-while color, and net unllke milk in consistency. It is InJctted Inte the skin under tlie thigh, w hlch. with the arm, Is considered the best place for the Injection. About thirty drops of the liquid ure used. The nccdlcerthrcad of the syringe through which the fluid Is injected Is about two Inches long. The Insortlen, however, Is net painful, the doc tor said, aud llttle or no liuneness had re sulted from the injections. Only ene man had complained thus far. Although the majority of tlie beven patlents who have been inoculated profess te fcel much better, the doctors de net con sider their declarations te be trustworthy. While the patients are net aware that they are receiving the Brown-Sequard elixir, they wcre luduced te submit te the treat ment by being assured that it would bcuo bcue (It them. Hcnce, the doctors think that imagination has much te de witli their sup posed Improvement. The patients opeiatcd upon haebecii, with oue exception, uged men. The young man Is deaf, and the Injection bus as yet net incrcaf ed bis pewers of hearing. The doctors, of ceurse, de net pretend te say what the final effect upon his hearing will be. Further experiments may be of avail lu relleving him. On tlie ether hand, au old man who is aflllcted with asthma, who has had only thrce Injections, declares that he new breathes with much greater case than befere his first visit te Dr. Loemts. He has a confident bellef that he will recover cntlrely. The ether patients, the majority of whom suffer from dis eased lungs, are equally sangulue since the uocdle has been placed lu their flesh. Knewius that will power and Im agination have great influence upon such cases, the physicians are unwilling te ac cept the statements of their subjects with out the present popular grain el salt. They have, tficrefore, endeavored te learn their true condition by examination with the proper Instruments. They bolievo after these investigations that the patients have misjudged or misinterpreted their sensa tions. They aie influenced, the physicians think, like the participants lu the faith cure. They will net glve a statement favoring the elixir until they ,are convinced of its efficacy. Medical science, Dr. Byren says, cannot tell a priori whether It Is valuable or net. Experiments ulone can demonstrate this fact. He bclievcs that many of the pub lished statements of miraculous and In stantaneous cures are untrue. But Dr, 11 v ren says that an Injection of the fluid, whether it cuies or net, can ut least de no harm. Care In the operation must be used, howe or. Only a skilled physician, accustomed te the use ofjantlsentics should undortalce the operation, lujiiileus results might otherwise lollew. An abvilute no ne no cessity Is the cliolce of a perfectly hiailthy animal. Unless asuied of the condition of the animal, tlie fluid should net be made. The experiments at the laboratory have already lafcted mero than a wttk. Twe of the seven patients are inmates of Bellevue. The ethers are diipcnxary patients. Utoycle Notes.
