THE MURDER OF GEO. P. HIRTH. ‘Trial of Bedford, Queenan and Pinn. ‘The trial of the three colored men—Joseph Neverson alias Joseph or “Babe” Bedford, Ed- ward Queenan and Sandy Pinn—indicted for the murder of George Philip Hirth on P street on the-evening of January 7th last, was con- tinued in the Criminal Court, Judge Hagner, yesterday after our report closed—District At- torney Corkhill and Assistant District Attorney Perry for the government; Mesers. T. F. Miller, C. Maurice Smith and John F. Riley for Pinn: H. H. Wells, jr., R. Coyle and d. A. Hayward for the other prisoners. Mr. Jas. C. Little wes called and the govern- ment said he aesired to prove that Brown had made the statement to him the day after the murder as to what he saw, and witness advised him to go to pees headquarters, but the testi- mony was ruled out. Dr. E. M. Schaeffer after testifying specifically as to the spots supposed to be blood on the clothing of the prisoners, on cross-examination said he would swear positively to blood stains on the white shirt (Pimn’s), the blue shirt omcertie the coat, scarf and shoes (Bed- ford’s); he did not count the corpuscles found in the spots of blood, but in some there must have been thousands, while in others there were several hundred. Some of the spots on the white shirt (Pinn’s) were onthe inside of it; he did not remember the size of the spots cut from the instde of the legs of the pantaloons. Photo- graphs of the microscopic appearance of blood— uman, animal, reptile, &c.—were shown to the witness, and he said they were correct repre- Sentations, and the blood on tke clothing re- sembled human blood. Mr. Perry said that they could not close the case of the government without the testimony of Wim. Dangerfield and another witness, W. R. Spear, whose testimony was not discovered until yesterday, and they would file affidavits in support of their application to call these wi.- nesses. Wm. Dangerfield was then called. Notice of him not having been re-served on the defend- ants until Saturday, the court held that was not sufficient time. Mr. Perry then moved that the court adjourn until to-day, when he would argue that Sunday could be counted when it was the initial day of a series. If the court decided otherwise he would then move an adjournment until Wednesday, that the Deir) mumber of days of notice ight be completed and the testimony admitted. The court then adjourned. Eighth Day. For some cause there was not a large atten- dance in the court room this morning. This was probably owing to the impression that there would be to-day a long discussion on law points—as to the admissabilituf the evidence of the boy Dangerfield, to which defendants ob- Ject.on the ground that they have not had the requisite notice. On the opening of the eourt the discussion was opened as to whether Sun- should be computed in the number of days— ether the notice having been given on Satur- Sunday should be incluaed as the initial Mr. Perry read a number of authorities to the initial day. DECISION OF THE COURT ON THESUNDAY QUESTION. The court ruled that it would not be safe to take away this day, (Sunday), for it was a day of leisure, of Which parties take advantage to ‘om thelr places, thelr homes and their usiness. He referred to umber of autho} ties, and said that all treated Sundays as @ non, and the whole spirit of the law was that parties are not to beset to work on Sunday. dsay. however, that he could not see what advantage the defence could gain by thelr objection tor he would certainly adjourn the court that the requisite time Inight elapse. They could haye waived this ehjection. Mr. Miller remarked that the statute meant that the list of ail witnesses shoud be furnished before defendants said they were ready for trial, and It did not contemplate that witnesses could be brought in from time to time, THE RIGHT TO BRING IN WITNESSES FROM TIME TOR. 70 The court said that the law did not contem- plate cutting off all other witnesses than those named, but that the counsel should have oppor- tunity to inquire as to witnesses. Now if they declined to waive their objection he would ad- Journ the court. Col. Corkhill said that he should be compelled to ask an adjournment. Stone, the Wife Murderer. A ROMANTIC EPISODE, LEADING TO A MARRIAGE. On the 5th of October, isis, James M. W. Stone, a colored man, made a fierce attack on iis wife, Alberta Stone, and her sister, at their home, on 19th sti in_this city, u Utroats of both women. ‘The wife diced fra ie wounds. Stone was called for trial in the early part of 1879, and hts counsel failing to secure a. continuance retired from the case, and Messrs, A. &. Browne and R. T. Greener were assigned as his counsel by the court, and the case was then, on their motion, continued. The case ‘Was tried in October last, and the counsel en- deavored to prove that defendant was of un- sound mind, caused by a fall from a tree when a buy, but the trial resulted in his conviction. He Was thereupon sentenced to be executed on the 19th of December. The case ha’ been appealed to the Court in Gene Term on exceptions, the sentence was sus- pended under the law until thirty days after the expiration of the time. The was here argued by Mr. Browne and A. A. Town- send (of Baltimore), and about the latter part of January the judgment below was affirmed. Subsequently Stone was brought up from jail and the time for execution was changed to the 27th of this month, between the hours of 12 and 2oclock. Mr. Browne being a widower when he went into the case, and being compelled in the interests of his client to correspond with his friends in Maine as to the proof of character, Stone’s injury as alleged, &c.. became acquaint. ed by letter with a middle-aged widow, Mrs. Cyrene E. Dunn, the daughter of the gentleman by whom Stone was raised. As the time for the execution in December approached Mrs. Dunn determined to do all she could for Stone, and at once came to this city. Of course she’ was called on by Mr, Browne, and in a few days they became quite intimate, and the result was that a few days after Stone was last in court— January 3ist—Mr. Browne and Mrs. Dunn were lnarried by Rev. Dr. Sunderland. Both of them are now doing everything in their power to save Stone from the scaffold, and they have some hopes of obtaining a stay of execution. There are no preparations at the jail yet for the execution. ‘There are but few to be made— the scaffold made for Peyton (who was to have been executed Jure 20th last, but whose sea- tenoe Was commuted to imprisonment for life) being on hand and in good order. This struc- ture is 21 feet in height and 11 feet square, the platiorm (about 10 feet from the ground) having the tray in -the center, 4144 by 5 feet. It is thought that there will be no need of its erection, as Stone is quite hopeful of a commutation of sentence. Mr. Browne and his wife are, as stated before, making every effort in his behalf, and it is understood that among other letters in Stone’s behalf is one from Gen. Crocker, the warden. A final hearing will be given the coun- Sel by the Attorney General this week. IN THE SUIT OF 8. B. PorTER against Eugene Mickiewicz and others, Judge James yesterday appointed Messrs. Irving Williamson and H. CG. Stewart receivers, to take charge of ‘he coal, which forms the assets, a division of which are asked, _ The injunction against interference by Count Mickiewiez was continued during the pendency of the suit. A MANDAMUS AGAINST SECRETARY THOMPSON. Yesterday, in the District Supreme Court, a petition for a mandamus on Secretary Thomp- son was filed by Ensign William E. Whitly. Petitioner states that he entered at the Naval Academy in June, 1870, and graduated June 1, isi4, as cadet midshipman, being admitted 23 midshipman November 13, in the same year. In October, 1876, he was examined and passed as ensign, taking rank as No. 61 on the naval list. He charges that he was afterwards de- graded five numbers, and M. G. Reynolds pro- moted in his place on January 1, 1377, without compliance with the law, which provides only two grounds for such action. One of these is by court-martial and the other from failure to pas an examination, which sets a candidate ack one year. The loss in immediate pay he States to be $50 per month for six months, but as the course Of promotion goes on this in- creascs, In the next three grades the differ- ence in pay will be $200 per year. ‘THE SOUTH WASHINGTON CITIZENS’ PROTECTIVE ASSOCIATION met last night, and a report from the committee of twenty-tive stated that the memorial adopted at the previous meeting had been printed and a copy laid upon the desk of every member of the House, and the District committee had copies in their committee room. A motion was adopted instructing the committee of one hundred to advocate the Hunton bill for aunion depot before the Senate District com- ‘The court.—You have no other witnesses, Col.

Mr. Wells, referring to the list of witnesses for the government furnished them, asked if the witnesses on that list were to_be called, among them B. M. Leighton, Elmira Bailey, Wm. Ter- ru Katie Dickson, Richard Craig and Sarah ‘aylor. Mr. Corkhill replied that he did not know, but he would use themon rebuttal. The gentle- men _on the other side had as much as they could do to try their side of the case. Mr. Wells said that they had refrained from visiting these witnesses for fear they might be charged with tampering with the government witnesses. Mr. Perry.—They have a right to subpeena em. Mr. Wells. —Well, ask an order of the Court. The Court.—What have I to do with it? You May ask the clerk for subpoenas, I shall order an adjournment. Mr. Miller.—We shall file a protest. ‘The Court.—I would like to see your protest. Mr. Miller.—We have the right to object. The Court.—Yes, you may object. But you May remove all difficulty by waiving. Mr. Miller.—But we do not propose to waive our rights. ADJOURNMENT TILL TO-MORROW. The Court.—To allow the requisite time to elapse the court will be adjourned until to-mor- Tow at 10 o’clock. ‘The crowd thereupon left the court-room. Amusements, &c. Forp’s Orgra Hovsk.—Mr. Macauley and his company had a a audience at the @pera House last night. The leading character in the amusing play, “Uncle Dan’l,” was given with spirit and with all the effect that has made for the impersonation a national reputation. It is thoroughly American in conception and exccu- tion. The performance was a very successful one throughout. While the play 1s principally iven to fun, the plot is interesting and clever- worked up to some effective climaxes. “Uncle Dan‘?” will found at the Opera House every night this week and at the matinees, and will doubtless draw large houses. NATIONAL THEATER.—Shakt ’s delightful comedy “Much Ado About Nothing” was given in a style to delight at the National last evening a lars and appreciative audience. It is safe to say that no better impersonation of the spirited, keen-witted aud merry-minded maiden “Beat- Tice” has ever been given on this stage than that of Ada Cavendish last ht. Her beauty and natural archness well fit her for the char- acter, but besides this her portrayal of it is thoroughly artistic. She was ably seconded by Mr. Piercy, who gave a very spirited Dip er ation of “Benedick.” ‘The Scene at the close of the 4th act was immense, and Benedick and Beatrice were called before the curtain. The remainder of the conany is about up to the average. Miss Cavendish pypests this evening in “Mercy Merrick” one of her best characters. THEATER ComIQuE.—The excellent dill at this house drew a large audience last night, who were so well entertnined that full houses will certainly be the rule without an exception here this week. MESMERISM ILLUSTRATED. — Tallmadge Hall Was crowded last evening by a most interested audience to witness the wonderful exhibition of mesmerism given by Professor Carpenter.

It appears that Brown was Nannie’s lover, but was cut out by some other fellow, and he took this way of get- ungeven.
