Application for New Trial Made in Kenny Murder Case Number of Irregularities Alleged by De fendant's Attorneys. Application for a new trial In the Kenny murder ease was made ester day by the convicted man's counsel, Attorneys John J. Aluiphy, J. J. Man ning and M. P Conry Kenny, it will be remembered was eonvicted last Saturday of man slaughter for killing Martin Healey, in Archbild, In April last. The Jury stood seven for acquittal, two for manslaughter one for second degree and ono for first degiee on the (list ' ballot and remained this way from Thursday until Satuiday, when after being twice told they would have to stay tOtjethei until they agieed they compromised on a verdict of man slaughter. One of the reasons assigned for a new trial Is that a talesman selected as one of the jurots In the ease, Wil liam 11. Daniels, nlco served as a talesman the preceding week, all of which It Is contended Is contrary to the art of 18.1, against a man serving as a Jul or more than once In a year. It is also claimed that contrary to law, the Jurors on thiee different oc casions were permitted to separate, three or four at one time being allow ed to leave the court loom In tho cus tody ot a tipstaff while the others re mained In the box. Among the other leasons assigned Is one to the effect that Judge Gunster's language was too strong In his in structions regarding the Inability of the court to release the Jury before it had agreed, that It tended to co erce the compromise. Exception Is also taken to the statement of the Assistant District Attorney Thomas in his closing address that Kenny lay tn wait for Healey with a knife, which was unwarranted by the evidence, it is nlleged, and calculated to affect tho minds of the Jury. The Juiy, it Is also held, disobeyed the Injunction contained In the fifth proposition of law, suggested by the defenso and nfllrmed by court, that If any Juror had a reasonable doubt ns to the guilt of the defendant he should not forsake his opinion out ot defei ence to the opinion of the other Jurors. The general allegation le also made that the vet diet was contrary to the law, the evidence, the charge of the court and propositions ot the defense affirmed by the court. Judge Love, It Is expected, will come up some day next week to hear the arguments. DIVORCE DECREE REFUSED. Remaiknble Occurrence Indeed in Lackawanna County. Judeg Archbald yesteiday lefused a deetee In divorce to Albert L. Wallace who sought sepatatlon from his wife, Jennie Crestler Wallace, on the ground i ef cruel and barbarous treatment.

In tho Case of Ben Arnovltz Against Ynlsko Flgulnr it Appeared That Theie Was an Excessive Charge for Administeiing Oaths and That the Aldoiman Permitted the Caso to Bo Settled Will Try and Com pel Kelly to Pioduce Rccoids of His Court. Tho effotts of tho prosecution in the Kelly Impeachment proceedings, es tc rd iv. weie bent mainly on the pro duction of evidence tending to chow that Alderman Kelly was guilty of multlpbing cases and charging Ille gal fees. An Italian peanut vender named Patrick Cavlno, nllas Qulnn, appeared on the fltst transcript considered, as df-fendant In a case of larceny prose cuted by an Arab peddler named Geoige O'Urlen. The transcript charged for nine oaths, two subpoe nas and $1.10 for mileage it tho rate of ten cents a mile. Cavlno went on tho btand and testified that only three witnesses were sworn In the case, that he took out no subpoenas whatever and that the fourteen miles travel charged for by tho constible was ex orbitant even If the subpoenas were served, as he and his witnesses all live In the Immediate neighborhood of the alderman's ofllce. CAVINO'S TESTIMONY. The next transcript taken up was one in which Cavlno Is made to ap pear as prosecuting his father-in-law Nicola Wider, for the latceny of fur nltute. Cavlno swore he never brought such a case In Aldeiman Kelly's of llce. He had an assault nnd battery caso there against Ms father-in-law but It was cettled In the presence ot the alderman. Tony Shlndella, who Is named on the transcript as bondsman for 'tt Ider, swoie ho never went ball for anvbody. and further couldn't, be cause he owns no propel ty. In the case of Pen Arnovltz against Yalkc Figulnr. in which the theft of p shirt Is charged, evidence was adduced to show that the number of oaths alleged on the transcript to have been administered by the alderman was largely In excess of the actual number ol wttnesses sworn. It was further nlleced In this cise that the aldeiman permitted the parties to ef fect a settlement, which would be compounding a felony. Arnovltz, how ever, on tho advice of his counsel, George D. Tavlor, refused to say whether or not the caso was pettled as he would by answering in the affirmative incriminate himself. Jacob Elmo, the bondsman for Flgulnr, ad mitted that he owned no real estate. JOHNSON ON THI3 STAND. Ben lohnson, a colored cabman, was called to throw some light on the transcript on vhich ho appears as pioseeutor of a laiceny caso against John Helner. It was claimed by the alderman's accusers that the case was proven to be a i Ivil one, yet he sent It In to the grand Jur. Mr. Johnson, howevei, gave testimony that tended to exonerate the alderman. An effqrt wn also made to show that more witnesics were charged for than were sw orn. Adjournment was made until next Tuesday. The question as to whether on not the defendant can be compell ed to produce the papers and lecoids of his office will bo aigued befoie Judge Archbald in the meantime. LEGAL MATTERS.
