l''ETTERFTI r,D AND MARTIN' ARRAIGNED
BEFORE A StAGISTRATE AT CLINTON.
Clinton, Ont., April l4. --James
Netterfield and Albert Martin, of
Wingham, were examined in the
. Town Hall, Clinton, last night, before
Police Magistra to Seager, of Goderich,
on the 'charge of murdering J. G.
Fields, of Wingham. Mr. Lewis is
acting -for the crown, and Mr. Van -
stone for the defence.
George Morrison, testified that Net-
terfield and Martin were present at
Wilson's barn, where some blackened
their faces ; that Netterfieid went
-with them to Fields'; saw him up
:stairs, but did not see him again. He
:;also testified as to hearing Netterfield
.and 'Martin at the hotel with others
the next day talking over Fields'
ease. Some one said Martin had
Fields by- the neck. Martin did not
contradict this; he just laughed.
Cross-examined by Mr. Vanstone-
31orrison said he might have asked
Netterfield, who was drunk, to come
to the stable. A boy named Mike
Flanagan was also at the stable. Our
object was to try to snake Fields con-
fess, not to hurt him or anyone.
Lily Fields sent Willie Fields for
Mrs. Netterfield, mother of the pris-
oner, a neighbor. .Willie was only a
short time away, and said afterward
that Jas. Netterfield was at his own
home when he was there. Tom Net-
terfield came over instead of his
another, and told us to leave Fields
alone. \
Jerry Flanagan saw Netterfield at
Fields' gate, He was very drunk,
and said he was going home. Saw
him going up the road towards home
before Fields was out.
Thos. Fields, on being cross-exam-
ined by Mr. Vanstone, said.—.I did
not see either of these prisoners;
would likely have seen them it they
had been there.
Dr. Waugh, of London, gaye evi-
dence as to the post-mortem on the
body, ~hair was the same as given
at Findon at the coroner's inquest,
He saki the cause of death wras fuy
flammatiion of the brain and pneu-
monia,, caused. by exposure,' and blood
i soning in the feet. In reply to
r.
Vanstone, the doctor said pen -
monist might conte from other causes
than exposure. He, however, was of
the opinion that Fields' death was
cased by exposure,.
Thos. Netterfield testified that his
brother James was in his own house
when Fielda was being kept out
doors.
The examination was adjourned
til 4;30,
The he portion of evidence bearing
particularly on the prisoners when
the court resumed, was as follows:—

This was all the evidence presented.
Summonses to witnesses in Wingham
could not be served, as parties were
not to be found.
The Crown Attorney considered the
prisoners implicated on account of
being at the barn meeting, where the
plan was formed,
Mr. Vanstone claimed there was no
plan, consequently no evidence to
show the prisoners guilty.
Decision was reserved until Wed-
nesday when it was given as follows:
It is proved that Martin and Netter -
