REMARKABLE CASE AT HOLYHEAD. CHARGES AGAINST NAYAL OFFICER. STORY OFARMED LANDING AT RAMSAY. At Holyhead, yesterday (Thursday) a Naval I Disciplinary Court, presided over by Captain Aplin, was held when Captain Charles Israel Chinery, R.N.R., who at the time of the alleged offence was in command of H.M.D. "Eglise," was charged with that on the 11th September last he created a disturbance at Ramsay, Isle of Man, by firing off a revolver, threatening tho civil- ia.n inhabitants present that he would shoot, and that- he unlawfully landed an armed pa.rty from the drifter. He was further oharged with being drunk on shore on the night in question. The ease for the prosecution was conducted by Lieutenant Tottenham, the interests of the accused, who pleaded not guilty, being watched by Lieutenant MeCabe. John Clarke, harbour master, Ramsay, stated that on the night of the 11th September he was on duty. There were two patrol boats in the harbour. He asked the accused to port his helm in order to clear another vessel. He told witness to "shut up and go to There was a orowd on the quay. Accused had two revolvers, and he ordered his crew ashore with rifles. A constable took a revolver from accused and when this was done accused jumped into the harbour, losing one of the revolvers, and this witness picked up. When witness ordered the accused to port his helm he did it in a friendly way. Witness could give no reason for the answer which acou,s8d gave him. The Prosecutor: Can you remember how many I came ashore and if they carried anything with them? Witness: To my knowledge there were three with rifles. Did accused accompany them?—I cannot say. They got mixed up in the crowd. I saw him among the crowd of people. What was he carrying at the time?-A re- volver. Did you -ee him firing off the revolver?—I heard the shot. Would the shot ha^e been fired on rhe quay or on the public promenade?—On the quay. Do you think in doing- so he was endangering the lives of the piople there?—Of course, I think that. Did you happen to hear him threatening the livelS of any members of his crew?—Not to my knowledge. Were any of the police present at the time? -Yes, John Quayle and Bell. Did you observe either of these men ordering accused back to his vessel?—Not to my know- IcAl-ge. 46 What reason have you for saying Chinery ju"ped into the harbour?—I could not say. Who assisted him out of the water?—I don't know. Before he jumped into the water Bell had taken the revolver from him. What position did the men take when they got ashore with the rifl es?-T-hey were on the quay, Three of them I saw. They were close to the ves&el. Were they interfering with the public at all? Y es, they were stopping them. Did they stand close together, or did they endeavour to encircle the crowd ?-One stopped me. They were marching back a.nd fore along the quay. I do not think they were endea- vouring to prevent the people from board- ing the vessel. One of them stopped me and aaid "Keep back," but I replied that I was harboiw master there ar.d on duty, and that I was not going to be kept back. I stood my ground. The man had his rifle on his shoulder and did not point it at me. The men were on shore for twenty minutes or so. The President: You said you heard revolver shots; how many?—One or two. Were the men placed on the quay as sentries?— Yes. Lieut. McCabe: Do you consider you had a right to order the commander of one of H.M. ships to port his helm?—Yea, when inside the pierhead. EVIDENCE OF POLICE I P.C. Bell, Ramsay, said that some of the men got round the crowd, hemming them in. He went for Inspector Keen, but was challenged, wd when returning the inspector and himself were challenged. TI? crowd were very excited and the sentry was told to be very careful as they could see no reason why the orowd should be kept there. He repLJd that his, orders were not to allow anyone to pass. I-ater witness and others attempted to close with the accused, who said If you come one step further I will blow your brains out," firing the revolver into the ground- Later, after a struggle, wit- ness succeeded in getting possession of the re- volver. The harbour master was in his official uniform. All the men were armed. The Prosecutor: Could you say if the weapons were loaded and if the men were carrying spare ammunition?—I did not see any ammunition on the men, and there was none in tho rifle I took. Were there any outlets in the revolver you wrested from Chinery?—Five live cartridges and or. enp^y. .lid you say those men were under the ii. l :< e of drink?—That was my impression. Cross-examined: The sentry allowed witness to pass, although ho challenged him, saying "Halt, who comes there?" What did you say?—" Police." What did the sentry then say?—"Advance, police." Did. he then allow you to go on?—He did. Rapiying to the President, the Witness stated that tihe action of the captain and qrew caused a panic, and he hoped he would never see the like again. P.C. John Quayle, Ramsay, said that the accused would not allow two ladies who were trying to go up the promenade to do so. Accused threatened to blow his brains out. He posted four men on the qua.y, one of whom was stafioned at th. Harbour Office. Accused pointed the revolver at a sailor's breast. When witness first saw accused in the wheel-house of the "Eglise" the vessel was alongside the quay. Witness could not say whether the gun with which Chinery threatened the crowd was covered or uncovered. Chinery took four men ashore with him. They were under the influence of drink— they were staggering about. Accused threatened the people, telling them to keep away and call- ing them Sinn Feiners," Some of the people, particularly the ladies, were panic stricken. One of the ladies ran into the ooasfcwateller's house. What position at this time had the four armed men taken up?—They had surrounded the crowd. Proceeding, Witness said that Constable Bell endeavoured to persuade Chinery to return to the vessel, but the latter made no reply. When Chinery fired at you did the bullet strike tihe ground in front of you or behind?—In front of me Have you any idea if the spent bullet struck anybody?—No. How many bullets did you s&e Chinery re- loading his revolver with?—I could not say the number. Crosa-examined by Lieut. MoCabe: Witness was positive that four men landed with Chinery Witness was standing close by. Asked by wit- ness why he would not let the people go nome, Chinery replied that he would not let anybody PaiS: Did he fire a revolver at you?—Yea. Could you identify the sailor whom Ohinery fired a shot at?—Yes. I have seen him to-day. Edward Kenyon, coa-st watcher, Ramsay, said that there were some people on the quay who were grinning and laughing at some of the sayings of the skipper," who warned them to stop, othise he would bring his men on ahwe and take them prisoners. Witness boarded the "Eglise," and the accused said Arrest that man," but witness "turned round and quietly walked off and landed on the quay." Two of tfhe men were on guard at the Rocket House, and witness Raid, For God's sake, dion't shoot anybody. Your skipper has gone wrong." Wit- new went on to say ttiat he heard a shout Look out, Kenyon, he is after you," and witness added, and I turned the comer and ran for my life. He was after me too." REPORT OF FIREARMS. Edward Faragher, coast watcher, Ramsay, said he saw a man going aahqre carrying arms. He oould not: swear it was the accused. He tele- phoned to tihe Divisional Officer of Coastguards, Douglas, stating that there was a disturbance on the quay a.t Ramsay. He heaird two reports of firearms during the disturbance. Cross-examined: How far off were those re- ports?—I oould not swear to the distanoe. They were close to. Wm. King, inspector of police, Ramsay, the I last witness for the prosecution, deposed that the fire men who were oreating the disturbance were more drunk than excuted. Chinery threatened bo shoot witness and several otheirs if they went anywhere near him; in fact he did fire. Wit- new saw Qhinery fire two shots. The Prosecutor: Were tffey fired deliberately at any persons?—Yes, Constable Quayle and my- self. Did you take any rifles from the armed men? —-No, but I saw Constable Bell take one. Was thane any reason for these armed men to be ashore?—No, there was none. Cross-examined Are you quite sure that Ohimesry brought four sailors on shore?—They were on shore when I gbt there. Replying further to Lieutenant MoCabe, Wit- ness replied that he emptied the two revolvers; from one he took five live and one spent cart- ridge, and from the other two empty cartridges, boing given throe live ones by another man. The second revolver was handed him by a oiv, who said he had found it on the pro- menade. The President: Did you make any attempt to arrest this officer, who was firing revolvers at people?—We wanted to get the crowd away first. This closed the case for the prosecution, and the Court adjourned DECISION OF THE COURT. The oaurt this (Friday) morning found that the first charge against acousod was proved, ex oept in so fax as it reAated to unlawful landing of an armed party from tho drifter "Eglise." The second charge was not proved. Tho court finally adjuiJiged that aocused should bo aoverely reprimanded.

The Children's Emulsion. Prescribed by the Medical Profession U sed in children's hospitals for twenty-five years and thoroughly tested and approved by doctors, there is no .4 safer, more efficient or more reliable remedy for children's li ailments than Angier's Emulsion. It is invaluable for D Wis scrofula, rickets, malnutrition or any wasting disease; for building up after measles, fevers, or for any weakened, "run down" condition; for colds, coughs, bronchitis, whooping cough or any chest affection. For children .jgjkaw with poor appetite and weak digestion it acts like a charm, and the best of it is the little ones all like it and take it willingly when they refuse other medicines.
