Christian (white) and Charles Green (colored) were this morning brought over from jail and placed in the dock of the Police Court, the room being filled with persons whose euriosity prompted them to take a look at the ‘isoners. The woman, Margaret Harrison, pri was brought into court with em. After the ether cases were dof the two men were arraigned on the charge of digging up the body of Thomas Fletcher from the Hofmead burial it away with the intent to sell and dispose of gain or profit. oss said that he would tile two informa- ‘ainst Christian, one for taking the body of Fletcherand the other for taking the body of a party unknown, and would proceed first with that cbarging him with removing a body from the Congressional cemetery on the 20th of October last. Mr. Norris, for the prisoner, said he had been thinking ot putting in a special plea; that although the facta be admitted, the acts were committed for the purpose of promoting the | interests of science, but would now enter the | plea of not guilty. THE TESTIMONY. Mr. Thomas Thompson was the tirst witness | called, and be testified that he was present at | the funeral of the late A. U. H. Webster, who was buried at Congressional Cemetéry on the | 20th of October Isst. He was buried by Cen. tennial Lodge and Washington Chapter of Masons. Weut to the cemetery yesterday morn- ing and saw the grave opensd. The lid of the coffin was split open and there was nothing in | it, even the pillow on which the head was [aid | baving been taken. Saw Christian at the cem- | etery where the body was found. Mr. A. P. Snyder testified to seeing the de- the ground. olkman testified that he took the | diary from the deceased at the station-house on Saturday morning. Mr. F.K. Sparks, of the Surgeon General's | effice, examined the diary, and said the writing | was that of Christian. | Mr. Todd, of the Surgeon General's Office, | also testified to the hand writing im the diary as Christian's. | edit, Clem propored to put in the diary as evi- ce. ground on the 13th day of December and carry- f it nee. Mr. Norris objected, first, because it could enly be evidence it it were stolen property | found on the defendants; and. second, because it merely purports to contain the diary of the owner, ard they bad not shown that it was the property of the defendant. udge Sveil said that portions of the book might be admitted as evidence, and he would admit it, so far as any record of this parti cane was concerned. Mr. Norris did not further object. Mr. Closs read, under the head of October 29th, Wednesday, ** Attended a funeral at Con- gressional cemetery to-day, and brought the Fubject inte Georgetown College to night.’’ Mr. Closs also proposed to show by the book that defendant had solicited orders for subjects. Judge Snell said that he would admit this tes- timony on the same ground that he would in a charge of larceny allow evidence to snow that the party charged had goods. Mr. Norris objected to this ruling. Mr. Closs then read numerous memoranda | from the diary, and said be would close the case. THE DEFENCE. Judge Snell—Have you any testimony, Mr. | orri ri Mr. Norris said be did not need any, and pro- ceeded to argue that there was no testimony that the bedy of Webster had been taken by this party. They had simply shown that the party was at the nd wi the interment ‘was made. As long as the world remained the taking of bodies would continue. and it they shut up the dissecting rooms, soon the physicians would be powerless to treat the living. The judge said he would suspena judgment. ar | Mr. Clarence G. Allyn, at | $1,200. Capt. 1. E.
