BAN bat THE POLICE SCANDAL. ARNOLD TELLS HIS STORY. The Hearing Before Cominissio: Wheatley Continaed To-day. LIRUT. KELLY FURTHER EXAMINED—LIEUT. ARNOLD TAKES THE STAND IN HIS OWN DEFENSE—HIS VERSION OF WHAT MAJOR WALKER SAID—WHY HE SIGNED THE LETTER OF DENIAL, The trial of Police Lieutenant Arnold on the charge preferred hy Major Walker of “conduct unbecoming an officer,” in having circulated a “false and malicious” report that the major had ordered or suggested that the police suould note the habits of Congressmen with the view of obtaining information to be used in influenc- ing legislation, was continued Saturday after THe STAR’ report ended, The only evidence taken in addition to what was reported in THE Star was that of Lient. Kelly, who gave a vere sion of the conversation in the major's office early in October, when it is alleged the major gave the instructions regarding Congressmen, differing essentially from the account given by the police officials who preceded him on the Stand. Lieut. Kelly sala that after Major Wal- ker had spoken of the estimates and suggested that the leutenants might be able to influence members of Congress, oue of the lieutenants— he thought tt was Arnold—said that he kuew where ope member could be found one or two nights In the week. Major Walker then sald: ‘Any time you gentiemen know anything of members of Congress just come here quietly and let me know, and I think we can get the force increased one hundred members at this Some lieutenant then said: “That Would be blackmail,” and Major Wulker sald: “Ol no; not witha View of exposing any person atail.” Mr. Davis then called the attention of Lieut. Kelly to the letter he had signed with the other lieutenants denying that such an order or sug- gestion had been made, and remarked that bis Yestimony and the statement he had signed Were inconsistent, and the lieatenant sald he did not pay close attention to the letter. On ¢ross-exumination be repeated the remark he suid the major maue about letting hin know “quietly” matters concerning Cougress- men, and said the major said in response tothe Suggestion that thal would be blackinall, ‘UN, nO, we don’t want to expose anybody oF show anybody up.” “I would like to know whether,” asked coun- sel, “aiter the meeting was over and you got t0- gether on the sidewalk you did notsay tw Lieut, Arnold: "Now, T suppose you propose to gu. and SI id ir Lieut. Arnold did not say ‘No?”” Mr. Davis objected to this question and a fatuer sharp discussion followed, during waich Mr. Garnet, representing Lieut.’ Arnoid, reier- Ting to the couvesation in the major’s office, de- clared: “You have proved by your own withess that it did occur precisely as we say that it | aid.” ‘The witness was permitted to ansier the question, Mr. Davis’ objection being noted, and. he said,“I did not ask it in that way. Wnen we Caine out of the office I said to Lieut. Arnold in a joking way, ‘Weil, Lsuppose you are going to teil all you Know about members of Cougress?” He said ‘no,’ and I said, ‘and Lam not.’” Gen, Henke read over portions of the letter signed by tue lieutenants, and the witness said, “1 signed that lewter believing that it would end the matter and that it would prevent a public scandal.” The letier, he said, Was not read to him carefully, word by word, and syllable by syllabie, as Gen. Henkle read ito him, As to the first senteuce, deuying that there was no such order made, Uhal was true, as there was 10 suet Iustruction or order given. As Ww the part denying that such # suggestion was made, he couid only say wnat the iecter was not re him careiully. During the examination Com- Missiouer Wheutiey was calied trom the rooin, and during his absence Major Walker begun a conversation with the withess, whereupon Mr. Gurnett at once objected and the conversation Was stopped. Mujor Walker protested tat he Was speaking sbout another matier entirely and not about the trial When Lieut. Kelly left the stand Major Walker was reculled, aad said thut, having heard all that had been testiflea vy Lisuus, Gessiord und Kelly, ne did nut desire to dad auything w his testimouy. Tne hearing was Journed until tis ynoraing. To-Day’s Proceedings. Lieut. Arnold arrived eurly at the Commis: Sioners’ office to-day, and placing his helmet on chair, tarust his hands Into the breast of bis coat and paced up and down the ante-room ina rather nervous manner, Meanwhile, the other persons taking part in the trial arrived and col- lected in the Commissioners’ office. When Lieut. Kelly arrived be stood by the stove a few minutes, and Lieut, Arnold strode by him several times as he passed to and iro, but the two men did not salute each other. Major Walker caine in with a bundle of papers under his arm, and ihe counsel also were well provided With papers. The opeuing to-day was delayed unlil a quarter of eieven by the non-urtivel of Messrs. Garnett and Moore, of counsel, ‘The hearing Was held to-day, not in the Coinmis- sioners’ room, but in the room upstalrs, formerly vecupied by the police boaru, where « long table was provided, uround whieb pialutiff, de- Jendant, counsel and reporters assembled. LIEUT. KELLY EXAMINED AS TO HIS RELATION! 10 AKNULD AND TO WALKKE. Lieut. Arnold's detense was opened und Lieut. Keily was recalled to the stand and examined by Gen. Henkie, He said be had teen on the police force since September 11, 1861, and a leutenant nearly twenty years, He had known Lieut. Arnold quite a number of yeurs, ever since Arnold went on the foree, He had served under the witness as private and serueant. “Will you be Kind enough to state,” usked Gen. Henkle, “whether your relations with Lieut. Arnoid have been friendly or now?” ‘Mr. Davis objected to this, and the objection was noted, “Lieut. Arnold and I,” said the witness, “have not Leen on friendly terms for over two years andl fecently. ‘i “What, is” your feeling towards Mujor Waiker?” asked Gen, Henkie, ~ “I huve nothing but the kindest feelings for Major Walker,” said the witness. “I have no grievance or complaints to mule aguiust him. am here unwillingly, and I will say there is mo ove regrets this occurrence more than I do.” Gen. Henkle asked wuether he had bad any conversutions with Lieut, Arnold or his counsel beiore testilying. Mr. Davis objected, that no one had impugned Lieut. Kelly, or made any accusution that he had been influenced in any way. “there ts uo reason in ihe world,” spoke up the witness, “why I should come and testity in favor of Lieut. Arnold.” Gen, Licnkie’s question was withdrawn. The lieutenant Wax re-examined so us to bring out aguin stutements made in his testimouy Saturday, He suid that he did nét remember that Lieut. Arnold mentioned any particular member of Congress us visiting south of the avenue and did not recollect that any house was located, THE RECONCILIATION OF RELLY AND ARNOLD. ‘The witness, upon cross-examination by Mr. Davis, was asked under what circumstances the uniriendly feeling between himself and Arnold ended, “There was Ho special reason for it,” said the witness, “excepta desire to be friendly with all fand: - “Wasn'titat the suggestion of Major Wal- ker?” ashed Mr. Davis, cannot say that it was,” sald the witness, “Mujor Walker said to me ‘one morning, alter be suw me speaking to Arnoid, ‘I am. giud to see that you have settled your differeuces.””? eee zounet a Decne cenac ale tor the office of cuptuin When Capt, Austin was 9) Pointed by Major Waller?” ‘g “Yes, sir. “nd Lieut, Arnold was, too?” 'Yes, sir,” said the witness, and then con- tinuing he suid: “I desire wo gay in relation to that that Iwasa candidate for promotion to the sume office on u prior ocousiob when Lieg Vernon was appointed, ana I was disap: then, bat my relations with Capt Vernon were friendly; I had no iecling about the matter.” Ha Batt ne H ix with the other lieutenants,and the witness’ tes- timons here, asked: “Which of those three statements do you Want to be understood as conveying the truth.’ “Gentlemen,” began the witness “I am here Here Mr. Garnett objected, that this ques- tion was based upon the assumption that the three statements could not be reconciled. submitted that that was a matter of argument and he would hold that they could be reconcil- ed. The witness was permitted to answer and “Well, asI said, I am here under oath, have no motive to tell anything but the trath Before I had a motive.” Mr. Garnett went on to examine the witness, as to statements signed in the letter, stating 12 Tespouse to an objection, [propose to hold that this letter was the mostartfully worded letter for the purpose of concealing the trath.” ‘The witness repeated that no order or instruc- tion to investigate the hubits of members ot Congress was given. ‘The major read the letter and he signed it to prevent He did not take time to consider the language.
