Kelly, of the seventh police precinct, arrested T. A. Tolson, keeper of a pleture frame shop on H street, in the nelghborhoed of the Government Printing Office, charged witi an indecent assault on Emma Young, the thirteen-years-old daughter of Mrs. Amelia Young, a widow woman living at No. 11 If street. ‘The little girl is well known in the neighborhood, and is simple-minded and tnnocent of wrong doing. She was quite fond of collecting pictures for her album, and had been tn the habit occaston- ally of going Into Tolson’s shop to ask for picture cards. Last Wednesday morning she went to sce her step-brother in the nelghborhood, and on her return her mother thought she discovered some- hing pecuilar M her locks, but did not speak to her about tt. About 2o’clock her daughter started out again, and the mother asked her where she was going. She said: “To Mr. Tolson’s store;” tant he had told her she must go there when tle printers were allgone to work in the printing office. A further questioning by the mother elteite. the statement from the child that Tolson had made an indecent assault upon her In the morn. ing in his shop; that she had stopped tn there to look at tie things in Tolson’s window, when he took advantage of her. Mrs. Young was amazed on hearing this, and trie? every way to keep the matter qui¢t, not even acquainting the police, for fear of publicity. Mr. Ream, the girl’s stepbrother, learniog of 1t, went to Tolson and warned him to er T2th and N streets north west.

DICKSON IN THE MARSHALS OFFICE. * Mr. Dickson remained tn the marshal’s office till noon writing notes to friends and receiving some of them—a number of his friends proffering their sympathy and offeriag to go on his bonds. When told during the morning that Mr, Wells woutd ask $5,000 ball In one case and $2,500 in the other, Mr. Dickson replied that he could easily give that amount, for the offers-he had indicated that Le id obtatn a million dollars bail ff needed.

Proceedings in the Police Court. About 11:45 o'clock Mr. C. Maurice Sinith hada conference with Mr. Dickson and precisely at noon with Deputy Marshal Williams they walked into the Police Court, where Mr. Wells had a few min- utes before preceded them. ‘Mr. Wells sail that he had been informed tha Mr. Dickson would have his ball here in a few moments. Mr. Smith sald that there were two warrants, one charging improper conduef. in the jury room and the other conspiracy, and as to the question of pail he destred to say something. Mr. Dickson had been a reputable citizen for &) years, and 1€ the offenses hid been committed, and the defense clatined that they never were committed, he would ask that the court take the personal bonds of Mr. Dickson, for in the end he would be vindicated. They could furnish bonds in the case for $2,000,000 itnecessary. Judge Snell sald that as yet he had heard noth- ing against Mr. Dickson, and until he was officially imforiaed he would take no action. Mr. Wells said that It would not be necessary to give bonds In $2,000,000; that $5,000 would be Suf- ficient in one case and’ $2,500 in the other. Mr. Wells explained that one case was similar to those of Payne and Fall; but the other change was cou- aplracy. "yadge Snell sald that he had taken $2,500 bail in the case of Mr, Fall, and he thought that sum Would be sufiicient in each of these cases, Mr. Smith remarked that they desired to have a speedy hearing, not only for the purpose of vindt- cating Mr. Dickson, but that the bad character of the accusers should be shown. He would promise for the defense that If there was any Way to get at the bottom of corruption that the defense will leave no stone unturned to reach It Mr. Wells remarked that he hoped Mr. Smith would not take back his words, and he had no hes- itancy in saying that he would give them an early day for the hearing. ‘The case of Payne Is set for Tuesday, and a3 soon as that case is finished an- other will be called, that of Fall, and as soon as these are heard he would be ready with this case. ‘The court sald that tue hearty of these cases would depend on the other business of the court.

HIS REVIEW OF THE CASE OF FOREMAN DICKSON. The concluding portion of the report of Mr. H. H. Wells on the attempts to bribe the Jury in the star route case was submitted to Attorney General Brewster and given to the press last evening. It 4s devoted to the case of the foreman of the jury, Mr. Wiiliam Dickson. The report first takes up the sworn statement of Dickson and {is present: tion in the jury room, and the evidence of the s eral jurors is cited to show that Dickson, of his own accord, forced the matter into the jury room. FOREMAN DICKSON'S CONDUCT IN THE JURY ROOM. The report refers to the conversation between the juige and Foreman Dickson tn the court room in regard to using the notes taken during the trial in the Jury room. The court said: “I did not want to have that Inquiry started tn the jury-room,” and proceeded to remark that, having observed that some of the jurors had taken notes, he informed them that the law prohibited the fury from car- rying notes or depositions into the jury-room th: ing So might lead to differences of opinion, and that therefore they must leave thelr notes be- hind. “Dickson thereupon reminded the court that he hadsousht his honor’s advice and iad takeo the notes with that advice.” The report say “It 13 certainiy a matter of surprise that after the foregoing occurrence Mr. Dickson sould, In tie Tetlement of the jury to their chambers, not only discuss the alleged bribery of himself, ‘but h: off-red to read, not his notes, but the sworn statement of which are now Speaking. Juror Martin, in his aMdavit, says that he heard some of the members say that Dickson Was offered some money, and after the jury re- Ured the subj-ct of bribery was discussed in the Jury-room. Juror Hugh 7. Murriy says: ‘The Budject_was first introduced by Mr. Dickson. He Tead his papers to tue Jury.’ Juror Donophan says: here were some pretty high words McNally said things were going wron: from the way the votes w.re given. ted it two or three times, ‘They did not want a fuss tn the Jury-room. That he understood that Mc: Temarks were made for the reason that Dic! was making use of the statement in the jury- room. Though the paper is thus brought under suspicion,and is unmistakably tainted,Mr. Dickson is compelied to rely solely upon it to support the allegation that an attempt was in fact. made to bribe him. 1t is particularly unfortunate that there {3 no substantiil confirmation of the allegations of the document, for such confirmations are sure to be looked tor, ‘and If not found one 1s compelled to Tegret that the charge Was ever made BOWEN THE SEDUCER AND DICKSON THE TEMPTED. A summary of the statement of Dickson in Tegard to the advances and propositions made to him by Henry A. Bowen on the night of August 3d, In Driver’s garden, is given. The latter, as Will be remembered, according to Dickson, repre- sented himself as an agent of the Department of Justice, and offered Dickson $25,000 to procure the conviction of Brady and Dorsey. In regard to this statement, tue report states that while it “bears on its fave the evidence not only of careful reparation design, still judged itself It 13 not altogether assuring; for in- stance, while dei .cing to Bowen Uiat his position aga juror debarred him induiging in any conver- sation on this subject, he Immediately enters fion, which, if true, directly as virtue. Later on ire’ puts lato the taouth of Bowen the statement that if tie conver- sation leaked out he (Bowen) would deny every word of it—an old de lways provokes & sunile and weakens faith in the truth of the state- ment witleh it { ded to sustata and protect. s, Why di.t Dickson liste the proposition?

The report alluding to the statements of the per- s0n8 mentioned by Mr. Dickson as confirmatory ‘Witnesses of his story states “not one of them, ex- cepting Driver, whose evidence will be referred to separately, are in any degree confirmatory or sup- porting.” All do, however, say, what has never been dented, tat Bowen and Dickson were there and had conversation, and that no one heard any Teference to the star route cases. Mr. George W. Driver also “fails to corroborate Dickson In any sential particular. On the other hand, he clearly contradicts him, for Driver makes Bowen address sive expression to Dickson at the dining before Cameron came in, while Dickson says that. 1t took place upstairs on the balcony at least an hour later.” BREWSTER CAMERON'S STATEM Brewster Cameron says that at 8 o'clock p.m. on the 23d of August, the time when Dickson says Bowen attempted to bribe him, “1 was out of Washington on the cars, upon a two months’ jour- ney on cfilcial business in the western states and territories.” Thus contradicting Dickson's un- sworn statement. Cameron further says that about the middle of August he dined with Judge Hoover and Heary A. Bowen at Driver's. ‘Some time during th the Judge remarked: “Mr, Cameron, s ishes to be Introduced to you.” Lasked: “What Dickson?” Mr. Bowen re- plied that the Judge referred to Dickson, the fore- manof thestar route jury. I inquired’as to the urpose for which Mr. Dickson desired to see me. owen repiied he did not know, but it was evi- dently something important, as Dickson had asked him twice during the evening for an introduetion to him, and Judge Hoover having mentioned the fact that Dickson was connected with the Electric Light Company, that he possibly de-ired to secure lus assist nee th getting the Nght Into the govern ment builiinys. “He replied that he understood that Mr. Brady, together with his friends, were In terested largely ip the Electric Light Company ‘with Mr. Dickson, and in view of the evil reports concerning Mr. Dickson which had come to hita Irom every source, he preferred not to mect him. ‘That he heard nothing further of Mr. Dickson’s de- sire to see him until the afternoon of August ataboutl o'clock, when Mr. Bowen eameto the Department of Justice, where he wae completing his arrangements to leave on the 7:30 train for the west, and stated that Dickson was anxlous to see hin;’ that Dickson had been offered money for the defense. and Bowen adde think from his conversation that you had better stay over and nima—that 13, 1f you feel any interest in the exse.” He asked Mr. Bowen ff he thought that he (Cameron) could get trom Dickson the name of the P'rson who had offered to give him the money to acquitif he should remain over. Bowen replied from the cautious manner ia which Dickson had approached the subject he thought it could not be done. ‘Then I answered, “He ts a miserable Scoundrel, and T shail leave to-night.” Bowen thought ft Was important for Cameron to accede to his request, especially as he had declared money says he met Dickson on August 21st, when after dinner Dickson, in a roundabout way, conveyed to him thatthe defendants in the star route case had offered him a considerable sum of money for ac- quittal; but if the prosecution earnestly desired to convict, he would undertake to see the thing done, although “I can speak only as to myself.” I Sata this In a jocose manner. Further on he svys that about 7 o'clock of the evening of August 224 Dickson came and asked what in his judgment Would the government be. Willing to do In case of Aconvictton, How would twenty-five do (mean- ing $25,000). I said to him, “I have no authority to offer any money whatever.” Dickson sald that he would like to see the Attorney General the next day. T told him that the Attorney al was ont of town, and that J was going away myself. He requested me to arrange an Interview, Bowen then gi on to give the particulars of Cameron’s coming to Driver’s to meet. Dickson tn the evening, which confirms Cameron’s statement. Bowen adds, that he never claimed to represent the Attorney General or anyone else In bis conver- Sations with Dickson. ‘The report states that “THE TESTIMONY OF JUDGE HOOVER, confirminz In vital particulars the accounts given vy Cameron and Bowen, seems to remove all re: sonable doubt as to what this alleged bribery transaction the foreman of that jury, the most active of alll Its members tn the discussioas and man!pulations an- tent to the verdict, Was not bribed or attempted bribed by Bowen. Mr. Hoover's testimony 1s cularly important, in that, in speaking of the ce of Cameron at Driver's on the evening of he § Judxe, as he was lea He wants $25,000.” In conclusion, the report states that Dickson did not believe that Bowen was authorized to act by the Attorney ( SOCIETY NOTES, With the failing of the leaves and the advent of the crisp, bright days of Indian summer, Wash- ington Is rapidly filling up with those who have been at the seaside, or mountains, and Society, by which term 1s meant thos? who receive and are received,is making ready for the winter campaign.
