MRS. LIVERMORE'S ADDRESS. The evening session of the convention was made the occasion of an intorcsting address by Mrs. Mary A. Livermore, tho well-known au- thor and temperance lecturor, A large audi- ence was present, Rev. Dr. Coroy presided and introduced the speaker of the evening, who took for her subject ‘Ihe perils of the repub- lic.” One of the greatest of these perils, she thought,was the present system of unrestricted immigration, The concentration of wealth was another, while illiteracy was a third. In discussing this latter peril Mrs, Livermore ad- vanced the opinion that the time would soon come when thers would be an educational test for the voter. But chief of ail perils, she thought, was the liquor hubit, which was largely responsible for all the others, She insisted on the right of the goverumont to prescribe what ataan should or should not drink. In con- clusion she upheld the union for going into the ficld of politics, and prophesied the final and complete overthrow of the liquor traffic. pacanibarss bin WALKER’S BRICK YARD BURNED.

Yesterday afternoon the colored boy Alex- ander Campbell, convicted of an assault with intent to kill James Collins on August 12 last, was called up for sentence im the Criminal Court. The jury had recommended him to mercy and his counsel suggested that he might be allowed togo on good behavior under a Suspension of sentence. chief justice doubted his power to sus- pend asentence,althoush such practice had been followed to some extent. In cases where such leniency should be exercised he tuought the better way would be to release the party on his Fecognizance to appear for seutence. In this case, where tho prisoner, armed with a pistol, had shot at a man, he felt it his duty to impose sentence, and in consideration of the recom- mendations of the jury would impose the lowest under the law—two yeurs in the peni- tentiary at Albany. —— It Was His First Offense. “Tam very sorry indeed, because it is the first time I was ever arrested, and I hope you will exeuse me this time,” eaid Wm.

AMan Arrested for Highway Robbery May Prove a Murderer. HE SAYS HIS NAME IS DAWES, BUT SEVERAL TAVE IDENTICIED UMM AS THE SLAYER OF JON WAG- ‘SEN IN 1887—TNE MATTER OF IDENTIFICATION 18 NOT COMPLETE, HOWEVER. Yesterday afternoon Officer Mulvey of the fourth precinct arrested Frank Heideman,alias Dawes, colored, on the charge of an assault on James R. Garfield. On taking him to the sta- tion Officer Chamberlain said he believed the man was Frank Heideman, who is wanted for the murder of John Waynes, committed in Foggy Bottom about three yoars ago. Tho description of Heideman was looked up and was compared with the prisoner and it was found to correspond in evory particular save that he is two or three shades lighter than Heideman. Inspector Swindells was at once notified aud he sent word to the third pre- cinct. Officer Hart and Patrol Driver Shields went at once to the fourth precinct and were quite certain that Ux WAS THE MAN WANTED. OMicers Barncy and Bailey of the first pro- cinct, however, identified the prisonor as Law- Son Harris, who was under arrest there last week, and that he was not Heideman. Sergt Myers brought a colored man, Williams, who married Heidemun’s cousin, to the station in the evening and ho was sure that he was Hoideman, and Jamos Jackson also identified him. The prisoner claims that he knows nothing of the murder and had returned here two wooks ago after five years’ traveling in the west, in Colorado, Kansas and Toxas. This morning he was’ brought up to the de- tective office, and while Clerk Gorman was ig his description he was carefully looked over by a number of porsons, including police- men, ‘Ofticor Slater was quite CERTAIN THAT NE WAS HEIDEMAN, who he had known as a boy in Blagden’s alley. Some who worked with him at the foot of 17th strect were quite certain that it was he and it was remarkod that if it was he two scars would be found on his head or forehead, Ou examination one scar was found under the hair and a slight one over the eye, George Jackson, a crippled coiored man, living in West Washington, an unclo of the victim, Waynes, was ‘present, and looking at the person attentively said: “Yes, that is the man who killed my nephew, What did you kill him for? He did nothing to you.” ‘The prisoner did not wince and said: “Ola Cripple, you will never get to heaven if you say that Iant Frank. They don’t have any liars there.” While being measured the conversa- tion was kept up and he said he DID NOT WANT HIS PEOPLE TO KXOW. “If you send for John Fieming at the Presi- dent's stables he will tell you that I am not Frank, and if I can’t satisfy you otherwise I'll send for mother. If she won't own me it will then be all right.” Mr. Will Crowley. agrocer on 18th atrect, with whom Heideman's family dealt and from whose store Heideman got the pistol with which Waynes was killod, looked the prisoner over and said he was not the map wanted, Subsequently, owing to some peculiar action, he recogmzed him as the man, Mr. Crowley, after a subsequent inspection of the prisoner, came to the couclusion that he was not Lcidemun. Albert Fortune, the driver of the pound wagon, who know Heideman well, identified him positively. THE MURDER TOOK PLACE on the 27th of August, 1887, on 20th street be- tween D and E strects northwest, and grew out ofa fight which commenced near 17th and E streets, and was continued through the Kottom and stones were thrown. Waynes and a com- panion were in @ broken-down buggy, and when attacked they also threw stoncs, when it is alleged that Heideman pulled a pistol and fired the fatal shot. ‘he officers arrested Peter Degges as an accomplice, and he, after spending several months in jail, was released on bail. Ho claimed to have been only a spec- tator of the stone battle, ‘The offenso for which the prisoner was arrested WAS HIGHWAY ROBBERY, and he was captured by Officer Mulvey after a long chase. Gartield met him and asked where he could rent a room, and Walker or Heidoman told him he thought he could show him. He then led him to 3d and B streets, and, drawing a pistol, demanded his money. Gartield seizod the pistol just as he pulled the trigger and tho builet failed of its mark. The prisoner iinme- diately ran, pursued by Garficld, whose hand had been burned by the powder, and the officer joining in the chase captured him. THE PRISONER ARRAIGNED, Tho prisoner was taken before Judge Miller today and arraigned wnder the name of John Walker, alias Neleon Harris, alias Frank Heide- man,ou @ charge of assault and battery with in- tent'to kill. "The prosecuting witness was James R. Garfield, a young colored man, who said he was an Englishman from Liverpool, Lawyers Moss and Ricks appeared as the prisoner's counsel and Mr. Mullowncy repre- sented the prosecution. Garfield, who is a stranger in the city, tosti- fied that yesterday afternoon he met tho pris- oncr at the bar and they drank a glass of beer together. The prisoner then took him to a stable and put his hand in witness’ pocket. Witness asked him, “What are you doing?” ne he replied, “1 want your money or your ite.” ‘Thon the prisoner. he said, drew a revolver and fired one shot at him. Lawyer Moss started to cross-examine wit- ness, Whercupon the latter said to the oflicer, “I won't talk to you; you're no good.” JUDGE MILLER TUEN TOOK A HAND in the proceedings und told the Englishman not to forgot that he was in a court of justice. Tilman Dorsey and John Winston, colored, were also called ns witnesses, According to their testimony the trouble occurred near the Lelt line car stable, corner of 3d and B streets southwest. They saw the men engaged in a scufile and they saw the prisoner shoot at the prosecuting witness, Sergeant Daily told of the arrest of the prisoner in the yard of the Beall school and of the tinding of a British bull dog revolver in the samo yard. Judge Miller committed the prisoner to jail in default of $1,000 bail to await the action of the grand jury, “This nau has also been identified as Frank Heider n alieged murderer,” added Ser- a Judge Miller said: “his court has nothing to do with th HIS IDENTITY ESTAL: . Detective Biock had an interview with the prisoner this morning and ho is satisfied that ho is not Heideman, the alleged murdorer, ‘Tho officer took the prisoner aside and talked to him kindly, He told the negro that he was undoubtedly a “crook” aud he might.as well own it. “Well,” responded the prisonor, “I will. These people have been hounding mo and bothering me to death.” ‘Then he told tho officer that his right name was Lanson Harrison and said that his uncle, John Flemming, was employed at the White House stables. His moter, ho said, married 4 man named Bouldin and is living near Mount Pleasant, ‘The officer went to sce Flemming and he cor- roborated the prisoner's story as to his identity and also as to his having becn west for seversil yerrs.
