Yesterday after our report of the coroner's in- quest on the bodies of John and Jane Reilly, who were found dead ina room over Mr. Ben Holladay’s stable, 1311 K street, on Monday morning last closed—Dr. Hartigan testified as to the result of the post mortem, and the jury brought in a verdict that the deceased came to thelr death from the effects of poison adminis- tered by some person, and in manner un- known. The remains of the ‘ouple which have been in the dead-room at undertaker Buchly’s, 2 Pennsylvania avenue, since Monday last, ‘Was this morning removed to the residence of their iriend, Mr. Thomas H.

"Phe verdict of the ich, 1s gener: lieved to be about. he > Only one they could prop- erly make from the evidence Defore them, has not thrown any new light on the mystery of the deaths. There aresome now inclined to the belief that Mr. Retlly, in a fit of ee ad- ministered the poison to his wife, but those who know them best scoff at any'such tdea, ard claim that the poison was administered Oy the hand of some secret foe. Since the testi- mony yesterday has shown that there was arsenic in the foom, the theory has been ad- venced that some of this may have accidentally fell into water of which they both drank.

ATTACHMENTS FOR THE ACCUSED PARTIES. Yesterday in Cireutt Court, (No. 1,) Judge Mac Arthur, after the case of Mayhew against Rup- pert had been submitted to the jury, counsel for the plaintiff called the attention of the court to the attempt made the day before to arrest his client, He read a number of affidavits bearing on the case, among them the following: One of Joun H. Baine, of Forrestville, Prince George’s county, the complaining witness in the case in which Mayhew had been arrested, set tting forth that he had asked Prosecuting Officer W. J. HII to have the indictment stricken from the docket on two occasions, and understood it had been done; that the sheriff and his deputy were frc- quently at his shop, where- Mayhew was work- ing, and pever of ered toarrest him. One of Major L. P. Williams, deputy United States mar- shal of the Distiict. that Mr. A.E. L. Keesecame to him two days before the trial came off with two subpenas, and asked to be deputized to serve them, which was done; @hat Deputy aie ee Ritchie came to him with Mr. Keese on y of the (ial and showed him a bench at for Mayhew, but he told hm he could not be arrested on it. One of H. L. Prince, clerk of the Pollee Court, that Detective Aeton came with Ritchie to him and asked for a war- rant for Mayhew for horse stealing, but on learning that the alleged offence was com- mitted more than three years ago, he refused it. W. L. Hodgsins, the messenger of the Police Court, corroborated Mr. — Princ? B, F. Joy deposes that he saw Maynew ise and begin a conversation with Ritchie in the court room, When Keese came up with a policeman, who Said to Mayhew: “I want you; follow me,” and they left the court room together. Syl- vester Mayhew, the kidnapped man, deposes that Ratenle calfed him trom the room’ and the policeman, on Keese’s order, Placed Handeumts on bim ana carried him to police headquarters, where a tall, dark-beanded man (Capt Vernon) told him “if he knew what was good for him to take his prisoner back.” W. A. Da‘ ison, a eee deposes that he heard John West say e had sent him for an officer. Policeman J. W. 7 Howell deposes that he was at the Police Court when West came and told him that Mr. Keese wanted him to arrest a man that he had the copy of a warrant for. When he saw Koese he told him the same, and that he was a bailift of the court. Capt. Chas. R. Vernon deposes that he told the officer and Keese, who also ie with the prisoner, that the bench war- rent was good for nothing in this District. At the close of the reading Judge MacArthur in- structed the clerk to issue and the marshal to serve attachments for Ritchie, Keese, West, Acton and Howell, returnable at 10 o'clock this morning. He explained why he had deferr’ 4 investigating and punishing this obvious con- tempt of court before, and said that the pres- ent proceedings would be more Satisfactory and the ponlsbinent be, perhaps, the more exem- plary.

"To-day, in the Criminal Court, Judge James, the case of John W. Wright, indicted for an as- sault with intent to kill Mr. Delano, former Sec- retary of the Interior, was taken up— District Pas J Corkhill and R. R. Perry for the ment, and Messrs. F. P. Stanton and W. A. Cook for the defendant, who has been {ll for ‘the ast two or three and was looki ite Uhwell to-day. oe ee ‘THE FIRST WITNESS was Walter H. Smith, who testified that on the 32th of October, 1877, he and Secretary Delano walked to the banking house of H. D. Cooke, Jr., and while there Mr. Wright come in. Witness and Delano went round on 15th steet and Mr. D. stopped at the Citizens’ National Bank for a moment, and they walked towards the Riggs House, when Mr. Delano received a heav.; bio on the shoulder from. a stick and exclaimed: “Walter, they are killing me.” Witness turned and saw ‘Wright with the stick in his hand, and just then Mr. Delano received a second blow one the stick that cut thescalp. Witness then cgught Mr. Wright, who exclaimed, “Let_me get at him you d—d old scoundrel. You fave made tt’ cost me trom $20,000 to $83,000.” ‘The cane dropped from Wright's hand while ‘witness held on to him. It was a heavy stick. On cross-examination witness said the blow stunned Mr. Delano. ‘THE EX-SECRETARY'S STATEMENT. Mr. De'ano took the stand and corroborated Mr. ith as to being at Cooke's bank and stop- pin at the Citizens’ bank, and said as he was ing up 15th st. with Mr. Smith he received a aneavy blow un the side of the head, which knocked him to his hands and knees. ‘He was unconscious fora moment or two, on a saw Mr. Wright in front of him with Smith between them, and a gentleman helped ‘nim up and assisted him to a drug store, and a car- riage was sent for and he was taken home,when Dr. Bliss attended him. ‘The stick was a heavy, knotty one, and he did not see Mr. Wright at the Ume he received the blow. Did not swear at Judge Me ee in the bani zo not know what Judge Wright meant by saying witness had made It cost him $23,000, except by conjec- ture. ‘The defence proposed to ask as to the cause of ae Wright's attack but the offer was over- ru OTHER TESTIMONY. Dr. Richard Josephs was culled to prove threats, but could not testify to having heard Judge Wright use any othe: than denunciatory language. Dr. De W. Bitss testified to the wounds—a scalp wound and a bruise on theshoulder. The blow on the head was a dangerous one, and probably the hat had saved a fracture of the mn ‘The government here put a hypothetical question as to What would nave been the result of the blow reaching the perlostium on a per- son of Mr. Delano’s age hes not the hat inter- vened and reduced the effect of the blow. The defence objected but was overruled, and Dr. Bliss said a fracture would have resulted, prot- any, followed by death. On _ cross-examination, witness reported his description of the wounds. Did not notice how much the hat was cat or broken; was paylog the most attention to the patient. "The hat may have been broken by some one wean ping on it. Bes ir. ce recalled—The hat Dr. Bliss refers e sume Mr. Delano wore; is quite certain that it was not trampled upon. Mr. L. S. Emery entitled that he was a clerk in the Treasury, and on the day in question saw asmall assemblage across the street—Mr. De- lano bareheaded and Judge Wright standing near by. Witness went over to the drug store When he saw the wounds. Mr. Wright had a Lae stuck with knots on it, and it was a large on ‘yohn A. Rawlings testified that he saw Mrs Delano rising from his hands and knees, and Judge Wright standing near the Citizens’ bank; the latter, he thought, used the w scoundrel,” and said ** Let him come on There was blood on Mr. Delano’s forehead. The government here closed the case. THE DEFENCE. Mr. Stanton, for the defendant, said the mat- ter had been greatly exaggerated and misunder- stood. They did not deny the assault, but would show tbat the assault was the result of along serles of persecutions and prosecutions, sutti ene to arouse the ire of any man, and to mor- y if not ony justify the assault; that Mr. Delano sneered at, and made grimaces at Juage Wrignt, «ec. JUDGE WRIGHT'S TESTIMONY. The defendant, Judge Wright, took the stand, and testified that Mr. Smith’s’ statement was correct with the exception of two instances. Smith said he handled witness, but witness said he could not have handied him. He went into Cooke's bank, and at the time had “no more thought of attacking Columbus Delano than of attacking one of you,” (tothe jury.) The only Way he could describe It was by saying that Mr. pelane jut On a sardonic smile, as much as to ‘il give you h—I.” the court here checked Mr. Wright, and told hin not tocomment, but simply give his testi- mony. Mr. Wrigh® continued, saying that when uhey went up 15th street he followed them: met Mr. L. M. Clogs; told him what he intended to do, ‘a8 I did not, intend to have any man grin- ning at me.” Mr. Closs said the stick was a heavy one, and he felt it. It was not a big stick, but a light one, given witness by Mr. Burr ett. Mr. Closs satd to him “wade in.” As they came out he took the stick about the middle, being of Trish descent, and a fee lick he struck too low, and the Second one was right on Delano’s hat'band. He had 10" intention of Kiiling. He only wanted to give him a good walloping, so that he would let him alone. — “I thought £ was riorming a moral and religious duty, and aving walloped him I walked off.” Mr. Stanton desired to ask what had led to this attack, but was ruled out, and witness continu- id he thought he may have said that «the d—d scoundrel made it cost me $27.000 10,” NOL * $20,000 or $23,000,” as stated Gook.—What were the Immediate causes wht h led to the attack? ‘This question was allowed, and Judge Wright after a pause sald: “1 would ‘like to understand how far I can go.” The court said he could state wifat occurred which caused the blow to be gir r. Cook—W hat was the canse, in qonr mind, and’ what were the actions of Mr. Delano? ‘The court ruled (hat the first part of the ques- tion could not be answered, but the latter could. Judge et nied that time he did not act at all, ee just ouplett over. What occurred was ng mn asked what communication he had yeceivel from Mr. Boudinot a few days de- fore; and it was ruled out. ‘Mr. Cook.—What was the effect of the treat- ment you had received at the hands of Mr. Delano for several months and years before, on your mind when you saw Mr. Delano? Mr. Corkhill objected. Mr. Cook sald he wished to show that at this time the manhood of the man was for a moment gone and he acted under an irresistabieimpulse. The court overruled this question and an ex- ception was noted. Sross-examined:—Witness was standing at the counter of the bank, and Cook seeing that he was enraged and mad, called him back, but he sald he had other fish to fry. Witness in- tended to strike Delano when he came out of i.e Citizens’ Bank, but a couple of ladles were bese ng, and he waited until they got out of the , and then struck him. Mr. Smith did not hol him, for it would have taken tn two Smith's to have done that. Witness afterward went to Mr, Stanton’s and Senator McDonald’s, The stick was a light one—of white pine—and Closs, after feeling !t said, “‘That’s about right.’ Re-direct:—Mr. Smith took hold of the cane, and witness said he did not intend to hit him again. He did not think he struck him on the coe ie ot the hat, for he knew how to handle the iellah too well for that. You may strike ao Irishman on the top of his hat and never burt him, but if you hit op the band you bring him. A recess was here taken. Chas. H. Morgan, colored, testified that Mr. ae was smiling when he came out of the ve Ofticer MeNeal testified that tee co came up tohim and surrendered himself. ‘This concluded the testimony of the defence. Mr. Smith, recalled by the government, testi- fled that he saw no smile on Mr. Delano’s face. ‘Mr. Delano recalled—Did not Smile at Judge Wright nor see him — left the bank unlit ‘This closed the evidence. Mr. Perry was arguing the case to the jury, when our report clesed. —_——-r2-_ WoMEN SWINDLED.—The residents of that part of Jersey vane s Hing, at the foot of Wayne street, known as Rocks,” were successfully swindied op ale by fa ciever epoken, tail, elderly man, of light complexion, with a — moustache, ‘and wearing a slouched hat. had a full DOnery pane: with him, and i profess to give a prize with every tcket sold.

WATER SUPPLY IN SOUTH WASHINGTON. ‘The water registrar has sent to the Commis- stoners a communication inviting thelr “atten- | tion to the necessity of taking some action in the matter of the water supply for that portion of the city Known as the ‘Island’—in other words, ‘South Washington.’ It is the opinion of this department that when the public build- ings in that part of the city are all completed they will use such a large quantity of water that the private houses in that section will complain of an inadequate supply. It 1s be- Heved that if a six-inch main fs laid on 1th street, between north B and south B streets, and on 9th street, between south B and south streets, it will correct the trouble. The follow- ing estimate for this work is submitfed:—Esti- mate for 14th street: 1,893 feet of 6-inch pire, 2 two-way stop-cocks and boxes, 1'T branch, and 2 G-inch sleeves, $1,335.

Messrs. Peter F. Bacon and W. R. Collins, the newly- appointed members, having qualitied during the day, they and Mr. W. B. Reed (the government member) received notes from the District. Com- missioners during the afternoon requesting them to meet at 4p. m. to organize. The three members met in the District Commisstoners’ room at that hour, and Major Morgan (the Com- missioner in charge of fire department matters, etc.) went with them to the office of the fire board and opened the proceedings there by a few remarks to them. He sald the District fire department was (be might say without dis- paragement to any other) not excelled by that of any other city, and the public feel a just pride in it and interest in those who have charge of it. Everything should be done to maintain its present effectiveness and he believed that the executive ability, integrity and all that is hecessary to constitute a fire board was present, and all that could be lacking was harmony. Whatever has occurred in the past belongs to the past. and should not be brought here. He then stated that the first business in order (to- wards reorganization), was the election of prest- dent of the board, and nominations were in order. Mr. Bacon nominated Mr. Collins for president, and Mr. Reed seconded the nomina- tor, Major Morgan then took the vote, and de- clared Mr. Collins elected and conducted him to the chair, wen he was congratulated by his fellow-members. Gen. Bacon remarked, “It we do not have harmony here it will not be my fault.” Mr. Reed.—‘'] reiterate that from the bottom of my heart.” Mr. Collins acknowledged the honor and extended his thanks to his ¢ol- leagues and the District Commissioners. He did not see why there should not be harmony if all acted solely for the of the District and the best interests of the tire department. There might be, and probably would be, dif- ferences of opinion. Nominations for secretary were then announced as in order, and Mr. Reed nominated Gen. Bacon for secretary, and he was elected. On motion of Gen. Bacon, the rules of theold board were adopted for the present,and after deciding to meet once a month, unless called t eller oftener by their president, the — adjourned until the first Wednesday In Ap BUILDING PERMITS issued by Inspector Entwisle: J.
