The Much-Married Prisoner Newman, alias De Hughes. BRAKEMAN, LAWYER AND PREACHER—PART OF HIS EXPERIENCES AS PREACHER AND MARRY- ING MAN—THE STOBY TOLD BY AN EX-PHILA~| DELPHIAN. Several of the women who answered the “personal” advertisement of Marion D, New- man, who is now in jail on a charge of false pretenses, have requested the return of their letters, and they will probably be accommo- dated. One of them has been notified that she can have her Jetters by calling at police head- quarters for them. She is past thirty-five years old, The large number of such letters have been assorted, and none of them will be made public except those sent by the prisoner to Mrs. Kate Smith, the only victim who made complaint against him. THE PRISONER'S WIVES. This morning the detectives received a letter from the Philadelphia authorities giving the information that the prisoner's wife—Mary De Hughes—is now living in Auberry Place. She was married to the prisoner in 1968. This the officers think is wife No. 1. A woman in Nash- ville they think is wife No. 2. and ene per olis woman they think is his latest wedded wife. From information received the officers now believe that the prisoner's right name is Dallas M. De Hughes, and that Sine! and Newman are his assumed names. Last evening a resi- dent of this city, who formerly lived in Phila- dclphia, visited police headquarters and iden- tified a — of the prisoner as being that of Dallas M. De Hughes, formerly of the Quaker city. To make sure this gentleman gave 2 sample of handwriting which he said would correspond with that of the prisoner. The lat- tex's sermons and letters were produced, and the similarity of the handwriting was clearly established. The citizen mentioned further stated that the prisoner was in his employ in Philadelphia in 1870, but he knew him long be- fore that time, He gave from his recollection the following BRIEF HISTORY OF THE PRISONER: “De Hughes was married in Philadelphia about 1868 or 1869. In 1870 he lived at No. 713 Webb street. In the latter part of the same year he went west, but did not take his wife with him. He returned to Philadelphia and November 6, 1871, he went to work as a brake- Man on the Chestnut Hill freight line, and was then boarding at No. 711 Wood street. His wife was not then living with him, but was sew- ing at the Soldiers’ Orphans’ Home, on 22d street above Brown. She worked there until July. 1871, when she returned to her mother in Reading, Pa. In June, 1871, she visited No. 713 Webb street, her former home, and then stated that her husband was studying law.” AS A PREACHER. “Abont 1874 De Hughes entered the Maine M. E. conference. Three years later he entered the New Jersey conference by transfer from the Maine conference. At the conference held in 198 De Hughes represented that his wife was aiPinvalid and needed medical attendance, and requested that he be stationed near Phila- delphia. He was then (in 1880) appointed to the church at Cinnaminson, Burlington county, New Jersey, near Camden. One year later he was reappointed to the same ‘church, In re of that year he left Cinnaminson, aban- dog@d the woman who was then his wife, and rat off with another woman. On the boat going from Camden to Philadelphia he pre- tended that he jumped overboard, and caused a report that he had committed suicide to be extensively circulated. March 10, 1882, he was expelled from the New Jersey conference.” ev. Dr. Perry, of New Jersey, who is now in the city, also’ remembers De Hughes as hav- ing been connected with the New Jersey con- ference. ge Thieves in a Stationery Store. THEIR BUNGLING ATTEMPT TO OPEN A SAFE. Sometime during Tuesday night the sta- tionery store of Miller & Herbert, No. 1417 Pennsylvania avenue northwest, was entered by thieves and robbed of about $3 in small |_ change and a couple of handkerchiefs which had been left in the store by a customer. The entrance was effected from the rear by the thief climbing through a narrow transom. After getting in the store he opened the rear door. The drawers about the store were searched, but no money was secured except a small amount from the cash drawer. ‘Teo handkerchiefs were taken from a satchel. Dis appointed at his small haul the thief seems to have gone to work in a bungling manner to break open the safe by blows on the door with the iron rod which fastens it. ‘The only result was that paint was scratched from the safe door and severe! slight dents made. The safe is in the rear of the store, behind a partition, The gas in that part of the store was lighted, but in the front portion of the store there was no light. About four wecksgago the store of Abram Minster, dealer in gents’ furnishings, adjoin- ing Miller & Herbert’s book store, was entered by removing a shutter from the rear door and then reaching through a broken pane of glass to the lock and bolt. The store was ransacked, and $2.81 taken foom the cash drawer. It is supposed that both robberies were committed by the same person or persons. They were evidently not the work of professional thieves, but most likely of boys. There were many articles of value in both stores, but nothing was missing from either except money. ——.___ A Candidate for the Gallows.

Practical Instructions for the Officers of the National Guard. IN TIME OF PEACE PREPARE FOR WAR—HOW TO QUELL A RIOT—DEFENSE OF PUBLIC AND PRI- VATE PROPERTY IN CASE OF AN ATTACK BY A mor. At the National Guard headquarters last night a number of the officers met to hear read the letters which had been sent in by some of them fh answer to the problems submitted to them some time since by Gen. Ordway regard- ing the suppression of riots and defense of the Treasury Department and of the property of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad, in case of an attack by a mob, There was a diagram of the B. and P. depot and its surroundings sketched upon the black board by Gen. Ordway, who referred to it by way of explanation during the reading of the letters, SIGNAL CORPS SUGGESTIONS. The first paper read was that of the signal corps. It did not relate to any of the problems submitted, but contained suggestions of how communications could be established between different tele, yh sections of the city in case of the ae telegraph and telephone wires by a mob. e T proposed to establish a central signal station at the State, War and Navy departments, with relays in’ different sections of the city. The paper also proposed that several tried’ and trusty men be detailed from the c to go armed, in citizens’ clothes, among the rioters and learn their strength, in- tentions and other important matters and com- municate them by the waving of a flag, a hat or a coat, DEFENSE OF THE BALTIMOLE AND POTOMAC RAIL- ROAD. One of Gen, Ordway’s problems was: “In case of pone tumult or riot, it being deemed advisable to guard the property of the Baltimore and Potomac seed pets any, and being ordered to perform that duty, what would you do? Describe what you would do in each of the following cases to provide for defense against an apprehended aftempt by a mob: 1. To destroy or render impassable the railroad bridge across the Eastern branch. 2. To destroy the navy-yard tunnel. 3. a stroy the round-house ‘and locomotives at the corner of Gth street and Virginia avenue. 4. To destroy the freight depot ou Maryland avenue. = faee estroy or render impassable the Long ridge.” A good many answers to this problem were received from National Guard officers, which Le Ges ae and commented upon at some mgth. DEFENSE OF THE TREASURY, Another problem was the defense of the Treasury building in case of an attack by a mob. But few answers were received to this. The papers read last night were compli- mented by Gen. Ordway. The names of the authors in every case were withheld. It isthe intention of Gen, Ordway to con- tinue the reading of the answers to the prob. lems as they are received, They will then be discussed among the officers until an agree- ment is reached as to the best plan. The next meeting of the school of office: will be held on the 28th instant.when the cussion will be resumed. At this meeting Col. Bigelow will deliver a lecture. chicos cc Cuniovs Corss For THE National Musry Mr. William T, Rice, United States consi Horgen, Switzerland. has recently presented to | the United States national museim about fifty | ancient modern coins, chiefly of eastern countries, including some of the rare silver hook-money used in Ceylon more than a cen- tury ago, some gold and silver fanams of India; the gold pagoda money of India; the rix dollar of Ceylon; Japanese gold and silver pieces, and raxe copper coins of Sarawak, North Borneo, French Cochin China, Hindo-Persia and Ma- homedan India, —— Aw Am atecr Protoorarute Ourrrr is wanted.

Correspondence of Tar EVENING Star. Rockviitg, Mp., Nov. 14, 1888, In the circuit court now in session here since Monday morning no business of any special importance has been transacted, A number of witnesses have been summoned before the grand jury, a large proportion of whom will give evidence in cases of violation of the local option law. Among those in attendance at court is Edward Watkins, who shot and killed Edward Trail last spring on his father’s farm, near Middlebrook. He is looking well and rz pears tobe in good spirits in to matter, No indictment has yet been found in this case by the grand jury, and Watkins is still under $1,500 bail, his ‘father being his surety.
