Lusby, Charged with the Brutal Violation of the Little Girl, Gctavie Rosseau, We stated yesterday that John F. Lusby, charged with the terrible violation of Octayie Rosseanu, a child six years of age, resulting in her death, had been brought up before Judge Fisher, in the criminal court room, on a writ of habeas corpus. Probably no criminal casein this commu- nity for years has created more intense excite- ment, both from the horrible nature of the crime and from the feeling of dread arising in every breast that some one near and dear to them may stand in peril of similar outrage if the guilty party or parties in this instance es- cape detection. i he discovery of the singular chain of cir- cumstantial evidence leading to the arrest of the accused by Superintendent Wood served to revive the feeling in the community, which had somewhat dwindled under the belief that no clue to the guilty party was likely to be found. At will be remembered that the outrage upon the little girl wrs committed on the night of Thanksgiving Day, by a person described by Octavie Rosseau as cressed in a soldier's coat, who accosted ber while standing at the gate of her father’s house on Capitol Hill, and per- suaded her to assist him in searching for asum of money he pretended to have losi. Having thus decoyed her from her home, he placed his hand over her mouth to prevent her from cry- ing out, and then took her into an alley and there violated her person in the most shocking manner, from the injuries of which she died about 11 o’clock the next night. The outrage ‘was committed somewhere between the hours of 5 and 9 p.m., the exact time being undeter- mined, from the fact that the little girl was so terribly injured that she Jay almost senseless in the alley perhaps for hours fter the occur- rence. Unparalleled evertions were made both by the police and the military authorities to bring the criminal to light, and a, minute examina- tion was made in all the mifitary camps in the vicinity for any soldier’s clothing bearing marks of: blood or stains of the filth of the alley that mightserve as a clue to the guil! party, but ail these searches failed, and the in- vestigation was nearly given over as hopeless until circumstances coming to the knowledge ot Mr. Wood, en perintendent of the Old Capi- tol prison, caased that energetic official to in. Stilute proceedings for the arrest of Lusby. The prisoner, who has been working in the | boiler shop at the Navy Yard, was at one time im the urce months service. He is most re- spectably connected, a: ' has a young and es- umable wife. His personal &ppenrance, as we have ale Trendy stated, would not indicate him to be of a brutal pature. Phrenologists and physiognuo- misis alike would agree inthis. His face is ieild and the castof his head decidedly more In. teli-ctnal than animal, At the examination yesterday, the tirsi wit. ness called was’ Dr, Charles M. Ford, sworn.—I ama physi- cixn, and have been practicing tn this city for one year. Witness was calied upon ina pro- fessional capacity to visit a little gurl, Octavie »Ronseeau, Jiving om the corner of B street and Delaware avenue, abonta fortright since. I first catied to see her at six o’c OF & iter six, im the morning. She-wasalive at the time, bat in & very prostrated: condition, and crying out With great pam, Her mother told me that she had been violated. I aeted her clothes. I was shown hey updoralotunn, which were very bloody. I afterwards made an examination Of her person, The part I foond to ep, pth lacerated. aad her stowach much swollen. Though in great ag- ony, she at that time was losiag no blood. I remained on’y a few minutes, and then went to Dr. May's, whom I asked to go and see the child with me. He returned with me, and Made an examination in my presence. This war about half an hourafter my first visit. We ‘hen left, and I called again about 4 o'clock in the aiternoon, when J found her in very se- vere convulsions. The next morning about + o’clock the father came an: told me that the little gir] pad died abont 11 o'clock the prese- ding night 1 bsd told him w let me kaow if the rh ld got any worse before morning, bat lor ecme rea-on he failed todo so. He stated she cied in convulsion. Question. Doetor. state whether, in your Spivion, abe injuries which you diseovered Upon her person caused her death. Answer. I think they did. «2. Did she at soy time. while you were there, seem to be awit) of her conefion? A. She was conscious. Q. Was she aware of being, or did you consi ter her in & dying condition! A. On my Iast visit I thought she would not recover. i did aot, however, think «he would die 80 soon, Q. you express that opinion toher! A. Nc; sir; but I did toher parents? (). Within ner hearing. A. I do not think she heard the re- mark. No one else made such a raniirky () her in my presence. She said she wa: suifering great pain in her stomach, but did aor, in my presence, saytinything about dying. «). Gould you judge from anything she said or did that she was aware of the fact that she was at thas tume in 2 dying condition? A. No, sir. I did not heer her speak atall on the second virit 1 Maretober. (. Did you at any time hear her oye how she received these injarivs ! ‘ir. Bradley —May it pleas your Honor The evidence now proposed to b* given, after what has been #itied by the witness. wonld hardly, | think, be admissible betore a jury, and I woald suggest it is not therefore alto- gether proper that it should be gone into here. The District Attorney. —I prevume, sir, it will be necessary for me to lay a broader foun- aation. I thereforedo not press the question. Tie objection was sustained Charles Ht. Wilson, sworn.—L heard of the violence committed upon this littl: girl ot Mr Roseeanu’s, and some twoor three days after the affair, at the requestof Mr.Wm.P. Wocd Went to the houss of the prisoner on 5th street east, betwen EK andG, and gotsom. clothing there belonging to him. I at firs’ brough: away 4 lotof clothing, which on inspection by Mr. Wood. at Carroll Prison, was found tote ladies’ clothing, and so | was directed to take that back and institute anotaer search whi | Idid. Oa my second wisit I got this shirt, { gnd tls cout, (both of which wituess here easibited.) (Phe coat exhibited was a\lue miliary over- t, bearing marks of blood on the cuffs, and h stains, as of filth, on other portions of it, | e shirt, which was torn in several piaces, marks of blood on the wristbands and » and the front flap had stains bearing hat the appesrance of am attempt hay- ing been made to wash vut blood-mards } Judge Fisher.—Did the marks of blood upon the clothing appear more distinct when you first examined it than wey do now! A: I think they did. The District Attorney.—_The marks will be analyzed properly by experis, to ascertain their character, Witness resuming:—This was after the ar- rest of the prisoner. I found the shirt under the Pillow of the bed, in which I suppose Mr. and Mrs. Lusby were aecustomed to sleep, and the eoat between two quil's, on the same bed. Tho prisoner did not see these clothes utter I got them, to my knowledge. I talked with him some little about the facts, but said nothing to him about the clothes. He said be was in- nocent, and knew nothing abontit. I had the talk with him after I got the clothes. I did not come to prison with him when he was arrested. The woman’s apparel was found in the same | Toom, but not near these clothes. The priso- uer’s Clothes were fonnd in the bed. His coat was folded lengthwise, 11 nlaced between the two quilts. It was placei oa one side of the bed. (.. Of what did the woman's apparel con- sist! A. Of drawers and other underclothas. Q. Wasthereany blood on them. A. Yes, sir, a great deal. Isaw the chemise, but I am not certain whether I took thatalongornot. Q. Did these drawers seem to be those of a fall sized woman or ofa child. A. I suppose they would fit a full sized woman. William P. Wood, (Superintendent Old Capi- tol Prizop,) sworn —I recognize this clothing as the clothing brought by Mr. Wilson from Lusby’s house. He at first brought some eloth- ang which I presume was Lusby’s wife's, it being woman’s apparel, and so I told him to return and get Lusby’s own; that he wouid find the shirt with the front part washed out, and blood on the wristbands. Q. Did you bave any conversation with the risoner! A. I had. He was in the room when ilson ceme with his wife’s clothe>. and heard Lasby say his wife was sick. That evening, or the next morning, when I interrogated him abont the blood on his clothes, he intimated that his wife was sick. (. Periodical sickness? A. Yes, sir. Isays to him, “But, Lusby, this blood bas been on the clothes for some days; and besides. you know on the eyening of this occurrence, when you went home with your bands bloody, and with piocod.on your clothes, and commenced washing this blood off, you told your wife, when she inquired how you got that blood on yon, that you had been butch- ering.” Says he, “Yes, I told her that’ 1 then asked him how he did getit. He cays, «1 suppose my nose had been bleediug, or 1 had been fighting.” Says 1 to him, *Oh, Lusby, that tale won't do.’ We commenced talking about other matiers, and finaily he admiteed he was drunk that day, and therefore couldn't tell what he had been doing. Q. Did you show him this clothing? A. No, sir, but I telg hm I had it. He was present when Wilson brougnt in hits wife’s clotheing, and heard me tell him to take that back and get nis (Luspy’s) blue coatand shirt. (}. What explanation do yon say he gave abcut get'ing the blood on his clothes? A. He said be could not account fer it. He had been drinking that day and every. thing was a mystery to him from about twalve o'clock. When he ©poke of his wife being sick I told iz of the possib.lity of his getting that blood on his clo:hes where it was from his wife; that it was only on that part of the wrisibund that the coat exposed. He after- wards said that he might have got the blood on there from bleeding at the nose. (2. Did you mention the circumstance of this little girl's death tohim! A. 1 did, and told him how I got the information about his clothes. That his wife had first given the information to par- tives from whom I had obtained it, and that through his wife’s sister had come the infor- mation about these clothes. He asked me if i had gotten it directly from her. I told him no, that I did not know her, but I bad gotten 1: in- directly. Seeing he was considerabiy exercised about it, I remarked to him that I did not want him to confess to me or commit himself in any way, for I had no authority to interrogate him. The ciyil authorities would investigate the matter. Ihave had few conversations with him since that time. Cross-examination :—Wnhen I wade these re- marks to him he asked me if the girl nad said thathedidit! 1 told him she had not. He then spoke of his being drunk aX@ kuowing nothing of what he did that day This was two or three days after the death of the child. When I told him of what his wife's sister had said, he remarked that she was not frieadly to him, that he had forbidden her the house, and that she would do anything to injure him. He neither admitted nor denied that he had seen or knew this child. 1 was not present when he had the conversation with Mr. Wilson. Hedid On & subseq vent occasion deny it positively to me. He admitted to me that he had told his wife that he got the blood on his clothes by butchering. He told methe blood might have goten his clothes from his nose bleeding, or from fighting. No one but the prisoner and myself were pres- entatthisconversation. He was arrested three daysarter the death of the child, and has been in my custody ever since. Nobouy has seen him, tomy knowledge, but his brother, his wite, and the employees of the prison, who at- tend on his cell. As faras I know of, no compan has been made before any Justice of the Peace or any warrant issued. The Government not having any other wit- nesses in attendance, the turther hearing of the case wis deferred until Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock, and the prisoner was temanded to, the custody of the Marshal, whosent him to jail, Mesers.
