Inthe jail of the District there are among the prisoners some notorious ones, probably more than have been together in that institution since Tom Wright, Chas. Johnson and other alleged murderers were confined in the oldjail,, corner of 4th and G streets, STONE, THR WIFE MURDERER. Among the prisoners in jail at present ts James Madison Wyatt Stone, who was con- victed some months since of haying killed his wife in October, 1578. He was first sentenced to be executed in December last, but_his case having been appealed to the General Term, and a decision not having been reached until late in January, he was brought out again and sen- tenced to be hung on February 2ith last, Presi- dent Hayes, a few days prior to the last-named date, through the effortsof Mr. A. K. Browne and oma Heong Stone a respite to the 26th instant. Stone has all along been hopeful that his lite would be spared, and when the appeal was taken to the Court in Genera’ Term he was quite con- fident that he would obtain a new trial. His rinctpal defense was that his mind had been impaired because of an accident he received when a boy, andthe claim was made that he was Insane at the time of the commission of the crime. During his long confinement in the jail, now over iS months, he has been one of the most quiet, orderly prisorers and, as is usual with most of the Inmates of the jail, his health has been very good. Since his last respite and the excitement consequent upon the conviction of Bedford, Queenan and Pinn and the arrest of Smothers he does not look so well, and 1s com- plaining now somewhat of bad health. It is supposed that his sickness is caused, at least in part, by the mental strain on him. He says That should his sentence not be coramuted that, be will not be afraid to face death, and trusting n his Saviour, he will be able to walk on the caffold. He was born in Matne, and in early life attended Congregational services, but since his Incarceration he has been visited mostly by Rev. Wi ibbons, a colored Baptist minister South Washington. THE CONVICTED MURDERERS OF YOUNG HIRTI. ‘Yhe convicted murderers of young Hirth— Bedford, Soeeuan and Pinn—on being returned tothe Jail after the verdict on Monday morn- ing were quite dejected, and evidently In no humor for singing, although the three have fine voices; and it has been almost a daily habit with them in going to and from the court to cheer their spirits by vocal music. Pinn was the most affected, and before leav- ing the comt house shed tears. He evidently realizes his position more keenly than the others. He reiterates his innocence, and says that ie showed a clean alibi; that he did not see Bedford until the latter came to Mrs. Hall's and told him that four men had jumped on him, and he thought that it was nothing more than right that he should tell his employer, Mr. Sib- 'y. If he was hung he could not help it for he aS not there. Jiedford, who is confined on the same row of cells with’ Pinn, is looking more serious than during the trial. Like Pinn, he claims to be in- nccent, but evidently does not like to pak of tie case. Eaward Queenan (who fs contined on the floor above, directiy over the others,) {8 more talka- tive than the other two, and says that he Is not guilty, and he nows that if they hang him for it he will die happy, for he never done the man any harm. Them white ladies (meaning those Where Sarah Turner worked) told the truth, and if they told the truth he could not have been there, and that ought to havesatistied the jury. They’ would tind out after he was dead who killed the man, but he would not say that Roxey Koss did it. THE PRINCIPAL WITS! The witness, Benjamin F. Jounson, ts kept in adistant part of the baildiag, and he appears to be rathor restiess becau.e’ he has not y learned how long he 4s to be kept there. “He would sooner be Gut any time, he says, than be paid for staying there, for it 13 so lonely. When asked how he passed "his time, he pointed to a couple of old magazines and a tew newspapers, saying he had read them all through. SMOTHER THE ALLEGED COLORED RAVISHER, Sent to jail on Monday, is coniined in a remote part of the building. "He 1s, as bas been stated, a man of herculean frame, eine much the same build as Tom Wright, who was hung a few years ago in the jail yard, corner of “4th and G__ streets, ior the murder of the peddler, Rogerski, in South Washington. Sinothers does not weigh over 190 or 200, He 1s probably the strongest man in the jail, having been known when a wheel roiled off'a loaded cart to raise one side of the vehicle up and hold it while the wheel was being replaced, and directly afterwards to whip four men consecutively. ‘It is understood that in the northeastern Séction of the city. where he has resided the past few years, he hi borne a fair character when sober, but occo- stonally he would get drunk, and then he was ugly in disposition.

SMOTHERS’ HAZARDOUS RIDE TO JAIN. On Monday, when escorted by a detachment of mounted police, Smothers was taken in the yan to the jail, the horses inarun. He was followed some distance by small bodies of mi on foot. East of the Capitol, however, partis in Vehicles joined in the chase, followed by a great number of pedestrians, and the race be- tween the van and its escort and two carts con- taining ten or twelve men each—one on each vehicle holding the lines and two on each using the whips—ts described as a seene rivaling John Gilpin’s famous ride. The appearance of the crowd around the jail on Monday nignt un- expected, but of course they could not get tn. Some of the prisoners say that it gave them something to think about, and Perkins, the al- leged Hanscome bond robber, tronically said that he put on lis best clothes th anticipation of the meb blowing off one end of the building, and even though his friends (General Crocker and his guards,) liked his company, he would have walked out into free air just to see how it felt. The arrangements at the jail are such that It is Impossible for any crowd to get a pris- oner out, except by destroying the building or through the connivance of the guards, and even then there would have to be more than one re- creant to his trust. NEARLY TWO HUNDRED PRISONERS. ‘There are at present confined here from 130 to 19) prisoners—the daily average having fallen off in the past few weeks, sts largest. humber for some time having beer 200 on the 6th of Jast_ month.) Of these 22 are women. The building ‘pt scrupulously clean, and many of the prisoners, with the simple furniture in thelr cells, take’ considerable pride in keeping them tidy. Some of them, by the aid of pic- tures from papers, have made their small rooms quite attractive. THE GAME OF “ FIFTEEN” IN JATL. On each floor of the jail, on the landings of the stairs, there are tables, and the new game of “15” thereon affords much amusement to the prisoners, who have liberty to-exercise. Many of them have become fairly acquainted with the | difficulty, or impossibility, of working out the Tent Well, and affords a chance for a good Inv ment. ¥ THE BRONZE HOKSE Ca: To-day, in the | Egulty Court, the case of J.

THE NORTHEAST WASHINGTON ASSOCIATION MEET- ING LAST NIGHT. ‘The Northeast Washington association met. last night at the corner of i¢th and’ F streets northeast; A. M. Knouse in the chair,with K. F. Maupin sect It was apparent from the commencement that there was an impetuous and disorderly element present (mostly from the youth of that section), and clamorous for lynch law. This disturbing delegation was from the Vigtlance committee organized at the corner of ith street and Maryland avenue on Saturday night. After the meeting was opened a differ- ence of views in relation to the objects of the meeting was apparent The meml of the Northeast Washington association took the ground that it was a meeting of the association, while the youthful delegates were in favor of an indignation meeting and a ventilation of excit- ing speeches. They were finally persuaded to leave the meeting, under the re ogee that there would be anoth¢ more in consonance with Mr. Hughes moved that a committee of safety be formed, which should act when It became necessary, the committee to be selected by a committee of three appointed by the meeting, so that they could secure an efficient body, and the names to be kept out of the newspapers. Col. Mot said he was opposed to hasty action. He was not opposed to Mr. Hughes’ plan, only he did not like to see him ashamed to have his name in the newspapers as one of the committee of safety. Mr. Hughes sald, as he had been challenged, he would explain that he would be one of the committee of safety. A young man named Jewett denied that any one Was ashamed to be known as a member of this committee. The young lady who had been assaulted was a school-mate of his, and he would go as faras any one in vindicating her, Col. Morgan got the floor anda began to counsel moderation, but the impetuous youths in the rear of the room made so much disturbance that he was unable to proceed. After they had left the hall and quiet was restored. the previous ques- tion was called and the motion laid on the table, Mr. Henley, from the committee on police, read the new Dill regulating the police force, now pending in Congress. He advised the meeting to co-operate ih securing the Passage of this Dill, and to discourage excitement. The asso- ciation could aid tbe District Commissioners by soing to the committees of Congress. He pre- lerred the bill known as the Senate bill, with an amendment which should be secured fix- ing the additional number “ot “police at 350 in place of 250.

Editor Star: Why 1s it that our policemen are not put on duty where they can do the #ost good: Go to the fair now in progress at Masonic Hall and there you will see each night from 4 to 6 of them standing around and waiting for a good supper, perchance. No earthly service can hey do there; the military company have squads of men on duty all over the hall, and are equal to any emergency. Not only is this useless, but absurd. Had the policemen who were here at the hall,the night of the late murderous assault, been out on the beat where they belong, perhaps it would not have occurred. There are too many policemen at places of amusement, througi: favoritism, perhaps, and a stop should be put to this at once. Let them move about. Now,I have never before complained of anything through your bright, shining and ever-weicome Srar, but have often been tempted to speak of this same matter through its columns. Am an old subscriber thereto, and a tax-payer. Will you not see to it that the eye of the proper au- thority is directed to this abuse, and thus oblige many’ besldes your correspondent. Knowing you will do all you can in the cause ot justice, | submit this tor your consideration. Very respectiily, X.Y. Z REAL ESTATE Sab day afternoon Waiter 3.
