P. HIRTH. ‘Trial of Bedford, Queenan and Pinn This morning, in the Criminal Court, Judge Hagner, the trial of the three colored men— Joseph Neverson, alias Joseph or “Babe” Bed- ford, Edward Queenan and Sandy Pinn—indicted for the murder of George Philip Hirth on P street on the evening of January 7th last, was called. ‘There was a perfect jam about the court-house, many people being anxious to get a view of the prisoners. THE PRISONERS IN COURT. ‘The prisoners arrived in the van about 9: o'clock, and were at once taken tothe d ‘The marshal’s oficers ees a@ crowd of the jurors and witnesses would fill the room, guarded the doors against outsiders, aud it was well they did for before noon there wasa perfect jam in the room. Queenan and Bedford were neatly dressed, the former with his hatr cropped and parted, but Pinn’s clothes were somewhat sotied and ragged. His hair, which last week was (quite long, was elosely Shorn. HOW HIRTH WAS WAYLAID AND MURDERED. It will be remembered that young Hirth, a most exemplary young man, a member of Mt. “ion M. E. church, hada store on 14th street, above Pn.w. He was engaged to be married, and the ceremony was to have taken place about ten days subsequent to the date on which he was killed. On the evening in question he staited out P street to visit his affianced, a Miss Sinclair, daughter of his former ee -ing 0n 19th street, above P strect. While quiet- ly walking along this street_he was waylaid by assassins, and a short time thereafter was found With three or more terrible wounds on his head. Having been removed to a drug store near by, he soon afterwardsexpired. He was speechless from the time he was found until his death, so that he could give no clue to his murderei Shortly after the tnjured man had been iak to the drug store, one of the prisoners—“Babs Bedford—was in the crowd, anxious to see whether or not the victim was dead, and made minute inquiries as to the injured man. This caused the officers to suspect him, and when further inquiry was made It was ascertained that Bedford had been in the employment of the victim and had been discharged on suspicion of having committed a larceny. ARREST OF BABE BEDFORD. It was finally determined by the police to arrest Bedford, and the second precinct ofticers went, to his house in Samson street and there found him asleep with a companton, and took him into custody. By an oversight his cou.- panion was left in bed, and when the officers re- turned to make further inquiry he had left and has not been heard from since. This missing and it is now thought that if he was not a party to the crime he, at least, would have been an impor- tant witness. 0 OTHER ARRESTS. following the murder Pinn, who companion and neizhvor of Bed- employed at Sibley’s teed store, “gave way” when he heard that Bedford arrested, by’ f i Es had_ been. stating that he knew | Bedford was trnocent, for he (P.) was with him the night betore. Queenan was arrested on the same day, he being known as a companion ot Bedford and Pinn, who had up toa few months t resided in Samson street. Seven or eight persons were also arrested on suspicion, and when Uys jury was moned to hold an inquest th? toliowing day, there was so little wh of the circumstances that the coroner determined to adjourn the investigation to a future date. Although the entire detective force, with the officers of the 2d precinct (in which the uiurder was committed) and those of the 4th and 6th precinets were working up every clue, it was not until Saturday evening, January 10th, that there was any substantial ground for the belief that they had the right parties ip custody, ‘That aiternoon the detectives, after a full con- ‘cumstance, came to the conclusion to release all but these three nares, (ueenan was held because he had in ns possession a silk parasol which it was thought might been taken from the vic- fim." All the other suspected persons were therefore set at liberty. It had been ascer- tained with some degree of certainty that there were four persons in the attacking party, and it became important that the other one should be ; secured. THE FOURTH MAN CAPTURED. Through some of the neighbors of Benjamin Johnson, a colored bo; faing on 12th str near W northwest, it was developed that he was robably the party wanted. This was learned by the detective officers, Iso by the second and the sixth precinct oifi and they were allon the lookout for him. Word was left at his house that they wanted to see him on some yc About 6 o'clock Saturday eve- ning Johnson walked into the second precinct station, and, giving his name, he was locked up, hat he met the other ning named at the cor- ets, and Bedford asked ar the ol them, and they thence alon: alking bel ia staggered | ime, h, struck him a irth, recognizing iod’s sake, Bab x ed uy h. and Pion kic Ling them not THE FUNERAL OF THE k place on Sunday, arch of which he Was anv Th was at led by 1 h mblazes ever at together on pecasion In this ieinity of h being estimated at from 5.000 to §,000 There was much indignation felt 0° rder and during the ices the feasi- ‘tting hold of the prisoners was fully ussed even by the ladies present. Remarks were made at the church by Rey. E. D. Owen, the pastor, and Rev. W. 1. McKenney, the. for: mer pastor, who had received the deceased in church as a member, and on the same evening a revival was commenced, which has been con- tinuously in progress since, and thus far there have been about 100 conversions, nearly atl adults, and the majority part men. THE INQUEST. ‘The following day the coroner's jury 1 nbled, and after hearing the Johnson and others, returned a death was caused by Bedford, Queenan and | Pinn, and they were committed to jail by the coroner. While the inquest was in progress at the 4th precinct station, an immense concourse —ten or twelye thousand men—were in the streets adjacent, and it was with the utmost difficulty that the prisoners were placed in the police ambulance under a strong guard and taken to the jail.

Coyle for the others, while the prosecution is in the hands of Dis- trict Attorney Corkhill and Assistant District Attorney R. R. Perry. ON THE COURT CONVENING TO-DAY, Judge Hagner stated that this trial was on the last indictment and if the counsel desired to make any motion they had now an opportunity. Mr. Smith for Pinn, said that on Thursday last while at the jail consulting with him the van was announced and the prisoners were de- manded gnd they were brought up, as he under- stood, to‘plead to a new indictment. Thispaper through an error had not reached Pinn’s counsel, the,prisoner having through mistake given it to his mother. Under the circumstances they would like to reserve the right to take an exception. Mr. Smith also called attention to the prisoner, Pinn, not having on his best clothes, and stated that the warden had evidently made a mis in not allowing him his clean clothes, as he understood as the order of the court. Judge Hagner remarked that he had written a note to the warden at the reyuest of Pinn’s mother instructing him to allow him to have his clothes, but this wasa matter in which he could not interfere. He should have his best clothes unless there is some necessity for his wearing others for purposes of identification. Mr. Smith—Is a man to wear a shirt two months? Mr. Wells, after the jurors had been sworn on their roire die, asked as to the matter of chal- lenges, and the court held thit the number of 20 would be allowed between them.

Mr. White was then sworn, and testified that he lived at 1105 E street northwest.

The prisoners in the dock appeared quite cheerful as they conversed with their friends—Bediord with his step-father and his mother; Pinn and Queenan with their respective mothers. AFTER RECESS. The court resumed its session at 1:10 o'clock. The court inquired if any of those drawn for jurors had been returned, and re- celved answer that the full number had not been returned. T. W. Murphy was the first talesman called, and he sgbmitted that he was exempt, having served on a case within two y It was tound, however, that the trial re- to was in October, 1576, and he was there- fore not excused on that ground. On be! questioned by the court he said he had forme a general opinion. He then submitted that his health was not good, being a sufferer from dys- pepsia, but the court sald that he could not ex- cuse him, unless on physician’s certificate. ‘The court, after further questions, said he was a good juror. The defence then chalenged him for favor, and Mr. Murphy said that after read- ing the newspaper aecounts he formed the ee inion that they were guilty, but now he thought he could give a verdict on the evidence. The court still thought him a ae ea juror, and the defence challenged him. Richard Ke ly had not formed an opinion; challenged by de tence. Thos. W.

A YOUNG MARRIED WOMAN OUTRAGED AND FA- TALLY ASSAULTED BY HER NEPHEW. The quiet farming community of Londonderry, N. H., was thrown into deep excitement Satur- day evening over a tragic affair enacted in their midst, in which Mrs. Sarah Dillingham, aged 33 years, wife of E. V. Dillingham, a respectable farmer, was the victim, and Frank Dillingham, aged about 20 years, a nephew of Mr. Dill ham, was the criminal. Frank went to live with his uncle fast April, and there were ru- mors that an ill-feeling existed between him and Mrs. Dillingham. Saturday. Mr. pilings ham came to Manchester, where he formerly lived, leaving Frank at work. About 3 o'clock in the afternoon Wm. Wallace, a brother of Mrs. Dillingham, who lived a few rods distant, called to see his sister and found the doors locked and the curtains drawn doy Soon afterward Frank called at the country store of David Burns, dbout 49 rods fromthe place of the tragedy, and asked for Frank Burns, who came to the door, when young Dillingham said: “T have shot Aunt Sarah.” Several men in and about the store noticed his excited manner and the blood on his face and curate: and immedi- ately surrounded him. Mr. Isaac Shepard asked if it was accidental or intentional, to which he replied, will be known,” or “It will come out.” The party then took him to Dilling- ham’s house, Upon entering the door a fearful speciacie met their gaze. Mrs. Dillingham lay on her back on the floor with several garments thrown over head and body. A rope was found drawn tightly around her neck, her clothing was disarranged and her face purple from suffo- cation. A bullet wound was discovered at the base of the skull on the opposite side. She was unconscious and appeared to be dying. Physi- cians pronounce the case fatal. The conclusion can hardly be avoided that the unfortunate wo- man was ravished either before or after the shooting and choking. M Ss HARTM. INCINERATIO: Miss Doliy Hartman, burned in the Le R ington, Pa., Saturday last, in accord: vith | her request, made while she was in good health. The father, mother and three brothers of Miss Hartman accompanied the body to Washington. At half-past 11 the body, dressed in a fine white dress, was. placed in the iron cradie and the hatr removed. The body lay inclined to the side and epreatne asthough In sleep. There was a lit- tle collar of lilles of the valley about the neck. | After service by Rey. Mr. Veterburg, consisting of scattering ashes, &¢., the body was wrapped in cloth which had been moistened with alum water. At 16 minutes to 12 o'clock it wasshoved into the retort. There was little odor preceptl- ble. The incineration occupied two hours. The family left for Pittsburg by the afternoon train. The ashes will follow. The body only welghed 80 pounds. The entire cost of the cremation will not be over $35. Mr. Hartman was very much pleased with the result thus far, and says his own body shall be similarly disposed of. Mr. Harding, son-in-law of Dr. Le Moyne, and one of the trustees of the crematory, says he | has over 100 applications from persons now liv- ing for the use of the crematory. ante body of from Los Pinos Agency runner arrived at this agency yes' Jack ordered back to Inform Gen.
