HEARING BEFORE JUDGE MILLER—EVERY WIT- NESS FOR THE GOVERNMENT GIVES A DIFFER- ENT VERSION OF THE AFFAIR—A WOMAN'S TES- TIMONY EXCLUDED—LIVELY TIMES IN COURT. The trial of Policeman Richard L. Dean, charged with assaulting Sam Hutchinson, col- ored, as heretofore published in Tae Star, was begun in the Police Court yesterday afternoon, In the andience were many colorefl persons who have attended the indignation meetings held to discuss this case, Mr. Mullowney ap- peared fur the prosecution and Messrs. Moss, Closs and Sillers for the defendaut. SAM HUTCHINSON TELLS HIS STORY. Sam Hutchinson, the prosecuting witness, Was first called and he described the alleged assault,which occurred on the 24th ot May. He testified that on that day he was on N street between 4th and 5th streets with some other persons,when the officer came along and spoke to one of the party named Simms. ‘The officer passed them and soon afterward he returned | d placed Simms and witness under arrest. ‘They were not doing anything at the time. ‘Then they started toward ‘the station, but be- fore reaching there witness ran off to make his escape. ‘The ofiicer pursued him and fired two shots to frighten him, At the corner of Ridge and 4th streets the officer overtook him and struck him with his pistol. He struck him on the back of his head. They waiked across the | street and the officer struck him another blow with his pistol. Ibis blow was inflicted over his eye. A third blow was inflicted over his head and he was knocked senseless, Counsel for the officer produced a long court record against Hutchinson, but the witness could not remember every time he had been arrested, he suid. Counsel then mentioned the nazues of several criminais, and wituess said he kuew all of them and that some of them were his friends, ELIZA KENNAN AND REY. JOHNSON. Eliza Kennan, colored, was the next witness, According to her testimony she saw the officer do considerably more than Hutchinson knew of. She did not hear any pistol shots. Her evi- dence was entirely different from Hutchinson's and so surprised the judge that he himself con- ducted the cross-examination of the witness. When Lawyer Moss questioned her about the case he mentioned the name of the Rev. Johnson, ‘The witness, smiling, answered: “I know the Rey. Johnson. Mr. Moss said he did not care to blacken the name of the witness nor of the Rev. Johnson, ‘This remark was the cause of Lawyer Ricks, colored, rising to denounce what Lawyer Mot said, and he added that no one could blacken the witness’ character. “Your honor,” said Lawyer Moss, “I object to outsiders’ interference in this matter. This is not an indignation meeting.” Lawyer Ricks persisted in making a noise and Deputy Marshal McCaffrey had to call him to order, Hutchinson, who did not hear the woman's evidence, was called in aud he denied what she had testified to. Judge Miller thereupon excluded the woman's testimony. REY. W. BISHOP JOHNSON’S VERSION OF, IT. Rev. W. Bishop Johnson, pastor of the ; Second Baptist Church, was then called and | his version of the affair was even worse than | that of the woman. He said he saw three blows where the complainant only felt one and the woman only saw two, and he said that Hutchinson fell at the corner of Ridge street, one square from where Hutchinson said he fell Then he said the officer dragged the | prisoner a square, to the corner of N street, where the assault was renewed. Witness da that the officer kicked Hutchinson in the ribs, When questioned by the court witness said he stood and watched the assault and did not interpose because he knew he would get arrested if he did, even it he attempted to assist the officer. ‘The judge read Hutchinson’s evidence to witness and the latter said he did not believe that Hutchinson really knew what did happen. ‘You said you were visiting the members of your congregation,” said Lawyer Moss to the minister, Vere you visiting some of the sisters?” “I was vis: tru ing the chairman of our church s’ board,” was the minister's reply. ‘How often do you go to see the sisters?” “As often as I get ready.” TWO MORE REVEREND WITNESSES, Rey, W. W. Gaines, another colored minister, was called and be told what he saw of the affair, He said that he saw the officer use a billy. Was it a billy ora billy goat?” asked Mr. was not a billy goat,” was his answer. “Now,” remarked Lawyer Moss, “this 18 all a dream to you and you can go on dreaming.” Key. James I.” Loving. also colored, was called and his evidence differed from that of all the other witnesses, Judge Miller remarked that he wanted to get at the facts, but he not see how he was going to do it with such difference in the testi- mony. OTHER WITNESSES, Lucinda Brown, colored, told a new story of the affair, She saw Hutchinson standing on the corner three or four minutes before the officer appeared. She said that the officer struck him and knocked him down and then stamped him on the head. Henrietta Blackwell, colored, testified to the part of the offair she saw. She swore that the officer knocked Hutchinson down with the pis- toi and then kicked him. This closed the government's case and_ the court adjourned until today, when the defend- ant’s side of the case will be heard, phoanieaieteiaee MOUNT PLEASANT PEUPLE Agitating for Increased Street Car Facilities—A Meeting Tonight. The residents of Mount Pleasant are dissat- isfied with their present street car facilities and have decided to begin an active campaign for improvement, As has been stated in Tur public meeting has been called for this when this question will be consid- ered by the people of that locality. The resi- dents find fault with the Washington and Georgetown Railroad Company for not making the line from Boundary out 14th streeta real instead of merely a nominal extension of the lath street line, UNDER THE PRESENT ARRANGEMENTS aresident of Mt. Pleasant after business is over in the city pays his fare to ride out 14th street to W street, which is the terminus of that line. He then walks a block to Boundary, aud if the car which runs out ith street to Whitney venue is there he gets in and pays an addi- tional 3-cent fare. If the car is not there he waits for an interval of ten minutes to half an hour, which is the schedule time for the branch line.’ If i pens to be ruining the Mt. Pleasant resident has the protection of his um- brelia—if he has one—while he is standing on the street corner. If the sun happens to be shining with the same intensity which has characterized that luminary for the past few weeks, he has an opportunity to know exactly how hot it is. The resident of Mount Pleasant is of the opinion that the railroad company could make the journey to that suburban retreat a less arduous undertaking than it is at present, WHAT THEY THINK OUGHT TO BE. For instance, they claim that as the Moant Pleasant line is known in town as the extension of the 4th street line it ought really to be an exte: id that cars should make a continuous trip instead of transferring sengers at W street. They also want moro cars and a quicker schedule. All these phases of the matier will be considered at the meet- ing which will be held this evening at the resi- dence of W. B. Matthews, on Kenesaw avenue between 14th and 15th streets. .

The game of ball at Capitol Park yesterday between the Senators and the Wilmingtons was about as poor an exhibition as has been wit- nessed here for long time. Both teams played badly, but the visitors happened to get in their hits just at about the same time that the Statesmen made their misplays, and of course they (the other side) won by the score of 13to8 It really seemed at first as though Washington were going to have a walk-over, but the erstwhile tail-enders waited for the time to come when the Senators should fumble the ball and throw it wild,which they did inthe fifth ianing to such an extent that the enemy made five runs and tied the score. Thence- | forth the game was a comedy of errors on the home side, the visitors having sworn off, and the small crowd in attendance was very much disgusted. The batteries were Underwood and Riddle and Anderson and Corcoran. Visitors scored twice in the first inning and once inthe second. The Senators pounded out four in tho second on a couple of bases on balls, three hard singles anda muff by Left Fielder Galligan, and four more in the third on two more bases on balls, as many singles and misplays by Anderson and Keay. In the fifth Hill, Gleason and Riddle made errors, Lyuch found the ball for three bases and Carl and Galligan made singles, In the sixth the game was really won by the Delawareans by means of a base on balls and two singles, netting two runs. They clinched the victory in the eighth with three more, caer, aod Bader a chance to muff, Coogan made a double and Bird threw wildly to third, Washington made 8 hits and 7 errors and Wilmington 11 hits and 7 errors, ELSEWHERE. Hartford tried a young pitcher named Kidd in the box, and fooled Jersey City completely, winning by the score of 7to0. Fitzgerald, Murphy and Dowd were the Spaniard battery. Hartford made 14 hits and 2 errors and Jersey City 3 hits and 4 errors, Baltimore took a brace and won from Newark, 11 to 3. Those in the points were German and Townsend and Miller and Childs, Newark made 10 hits and 7 errors and Baltimore 9 hits and 4 errors, Worcester lost the sixteenth straight game, the victor being New Haven, 5 to 2.’ Hosmer and Cahill and Stafford and Guinasso were the batteries. New Haven made 6 hits and Wor- cester 5, and each team 5 misplays, Other games were: Nationai League.—At New York—New York, 14; Pittsburg, 3.
