Thomas Henry and Tobias Parker, the young colored men who were arrested on a charge of assaulting John Tenney, also colored, in Blag- den’s alley last Thursday, were placed on trial in the Police Court yesterday, charged with assault and battery with intent to kill. They plead not guilty. Tenney testified that on the day charged he and Henry had an argument as to the number of persons they could feed, and Henry said that he could cut bread and feed three hun- dred persons. While they were engaged in the discussion Parker came —— tried to vent them from fighting. en Henry stabbed and witness knocked him down. He got up and again stabbed witness four or five times.

Suits which may Establish a Precedent for Johnstown Sufferers. The trial of seven suits for damages insti- bursting of a dam, which flooded the valley and hamlet of East Lee in a manner similar to the Johnstown catastrophe, was begun in the su- perior court at Pittsfield, Mass.. yesterday. The results of these suits will establish a pre- cedeht for those which will be instituted by the Johnstown sufferers to establish the responsi- bility for the bursting of the dam there. In the town of Lee a reservoir had been built be Ser paper manufacturers 2,000 feet above village, forming what was known as Mud pond. building a dam across the old chan- nel the water was turned into another reservoir known as Greenwater pond. The Mud pond covered about 50 acres. About 5o’elpck a.m. April 23, bay ees dam of Mud pond broke and flooded valley and town, Seven people were killed and‘many dwellings wrec! the damage reaching $250,000. It was found that only one of the owners of this Mud pond was m le for the others having t all by the fiood or had sold their in- terests. Itis alleged that the dam was not properly built, and was not given proper super- vision, The broken dam has been permitted san in thesame condition as when the occurred, it yesterday. Several expert civil engineers will testify, and the trial will continue a week or probably longer. ‘the administrator of the Garfield es- tate, Prentice C. Baird, is the defendant in the suit,and a dozen leading lawyers are em- ployed, including Attorney-General Waterman, who has charge of the plaintiff'scase. The like the one at Johnstown, was built of and the jury went out to view stone laid in no mortar, with a heavy earth- work embankment supporting it on both sides, The defense say that they fear prejudice against their case on account of the Johnstown ter, and will ask for an early ruling ex- cluding all allusion to the flood at the latter place. —_———+e«_______ BOULANGIST GAINS. A Disorderly Scene in the Chamber Re- veals a Reduced Ministerial Majority. In the French chamber of deputies last even- ing M. Laguerre asked leave to interpellate the government in regard to the violation of par- liamentary immunity which the authorities of Angouleme had committed in causing the ar- rest and detention of M. Laisant and himself. Prime Minister Tirard, in response, declared that the government would leave the matter for the chamber to decide. He considered, how- ever, that it would be best to postpone diseus- sion of the subject until Friday, in order that there might be no delay in the consideration of the budget. M. Laguerre insisted upon immediate discus- sion. de Mahy urged that the matter be Rpttponed until the army bill was disposed of. Andrieux taunted the moderates with being much more ministerial than were the ministers themselves. M. Madier de Montjau denounced the inter- pellation of M. Laguerre as an attempt to ob- struct the passage of the budget. He warned the republicans to take care lest they fall into the pit their enemies had prepared for them. M. Madier de Montjau’s remarks were greeted with applause by the left, which incensed M. Lejeune, and he shouted derisively, ‘“Canaille.” A scene of disorder ensued. en quiet was restored M. Lejeune apologized for his excla- mation, but the president censured him and excluded him from the chamber. A motion to —— the interpellation was then carried ya vote of 302 to 231, The government is of opinion that the sen- tences imposed at Angouleme upon M. Deroulde and Laguerre were not severe enough and has lodged an appeal to have the judgment of the court set aside and the cases retried. The Boulangist, imperalist and monarchist journals are jubilant over the reswit of the trial, and characterize it as another blow at the govern- ment. Prince Victor Napoleon has written aletter indorsing the sentiments expressed in the mani- festo of the members of the right in the cham- ber of deputies, in which the action of the re- publican majority is condemned, and an appeal made to the people to unite in the name of France and liberty against parliament and feudality. The prince says a government based upon the sovereignty of the i can alone insure greatness and pros; to the nation. see THE FRENCH MAID. She Tells the Court of Her Relations with Dr. McDow. In the trial of Dr. McDow, at Charleston, 8. C., for the murder of Editor Dawson, the fea- ture of yesterday's testimony after the report of Tae Star had closed was the evidence of Marie Bardayron, Mrs, Dawson's French maid. She is twenty years old and a handsome bru- nette, with dark hair and eyes, an intelligent face, anda well-developed form. She under- stands English, but speaks it imperfectly. An effort to have her testify through an interpreter was objected to by McDow’s counsel, and she spoke in English. Her manner was collected, and throughout the ordeal she bore herself with an air of innocence. She successfully combatted all the attempts of Judge Magrath, McDow's cousel, to elicit something that would weaken her testimony. Her first mect- ing with McDow, she testified, was on the 1st of last February. He met her on the street and asked her to run away with him. She told him that she would not do it; she would not leave Mrs. Dawson for anything. He met her frequently on the street after that and persecuted her with his attentions when sh: was Soing to school with Capt. Dawson's chi dren, and when she was returning home. He visited her several times at Capt. Dawson's house when Mrs. Dawson was in Washington and Capt. Dawson was at his work and Courier office. He sent her flowers and | aga Barre we her a watch to remember him y- He told her that he had married a Ger- man woman for her money; that his married life was unhappy, and that’ he wanted her to run away with him and m: him. McDow told her he could not geta divorce from his wife in Charleston, but would take witness to North Carolina and, after securing a divorce, would marry her. She gave MeDow a book bearing the title “Betwixt Love and‘Law.” She had never read it, but knew about what its con- tents were. It was, she said, story about a merried woman in love with aman. In her case the situation was reversed, and was the case ofa married man in love with a woman. MeDow had taken a photograph from her and had kissed her ‘two times,” and ‘only two times.” She knew that McDow's conduct toward her was not proper. She had never told any of Capt. Dawson's family about the affair. She did not love MeDow. She felt for his misfortune and she had a pase of kind- ness for him. She believed if she given herself to him he would have supported her, She believed it while he was ger ee her. The woman's story was told without excite- ment. She shrugged her shoulders, as is usual with Freuch women, when she did not under- stand a question, but ‘made a good impression by her conduct on the stand. The case for the defense will be opened to-day, and perhaps Mc- Dow himself take the etand. The argu- ment will probably not begin before Friday. —————eee- To Investigate Death by Electricity.
