THE. EVENING STAR:. WASHINGTON. D.C. FRIDAY, JULY 3. 189 SUCCESS ASSURED. Progress of the Movement to Bring the G. A. K. Encampment Here. The committee of citizens in charge of the movement to bring to Washington the G. A. R. encampment next year have come to feel highly enconraged at the showing made last night at | the meeting held in parlor 10 of Willard’s. The chairmen of committees were present last night, and while actual statements are a little slow in | coming in; the feeling of hopefulness was uni- | versal. Commissioner Douglass occupied the chair and the secretary, Mr. Ross Fish, sat at | his left. Around the room sat many of Wash- ington’s best known and most enterprising citi- zens. It was decided to send @ telegram to the secretary of the Society of the Army of the Potomac cordially inviting the society to hold its next annual session in Washington. The | society is now in session at Bufisio and the j committee thought it would be eminently proper if the organization could come to Wash- ington in the same year as the G. A. R. G00D WORK OF THE HUSTLING COMMITTEES. Mr. Parke, from what was rather aptly termed “the hustling committee,” submitted a report telling of the work which had been done in seeing the different chairmen of committecs and securing reports from them and Mr. Parke reported a most encouraging state of affairs and personally seemed assured of a successful outcome of the plan. The mecting then resolved igto a somewhat informal discussion of affairs, during which several offers of contributions were made. Mr. €.C. Duncanson, from the committee of auc- tioncers, reported progress in his work, while Mr. Driver. feom the luce dealers. ‘tarted in a big list of subscriptions. gested that in this move- invitations be also extended to the two relief corps, which always accompanicd the Grand Array at its encatapmenta, and last year took 30,000 men to Bost Other matters were discussed and the committee adjourned until | next Thursday evening at 8 o'clock.

There was a most dramatic scene yesterday in the New York court when Ameer Ben Ali, alias “Frenchy,” told his own story in connee- tion with the murder of Carrie Brown. A few witnesses were heard yesterday morn- ing and then Ameer Ben Ali was called to the stand. His tall form rose up from the little group of lawyers in which he sut, and he moved to the stand with his pectliar, quick, dignified stride. The worried, anxious look, marked by the wrinkled forehead, was greatly intensified. He looked abont the room in a prteous sort of way, and seemed not to distinguikh between Jurors, the attorneys who are trying to put him where he would lose his life, the judge or the spectators. He apparently took in the whole audience, with the exception of his lawyers, in | one comprehensive group of beings who were hunting bim to bis death. | Ben Ali remained tolerably eilm during the preliminary part of his examination. — He spoke aie, Vy. cited voice, but he did not gesticulate exces- sively. FRENCHY SURDS TEARS. _ At last, like a man moved half to madness, he suddenly broke out in a torrent of passionate declamation. He held his trembling handsaloft and turned his head upward in fieree appeals to heaven. Tears rolled down his cheeks, and as he moved his head from side to side in the madness of his appeal the teardrops even flew off in a sort of spray. All this was when Mr. Friend had leaned forward upon, the rail, and with great impressiveness had asked: “Did—you— kill—Carrie--Brown?” When the interpreter had slowly repeated this qnestion the explosion came. It lasted for nearly a fall minute before the excited man could be suppressed. When at last the flow of melodious Arabie stopped the: tears still cox- tinued and with his handkerchief held in a trembling haud he wiped his eyes, while hi Dreast heaved with-hik emotion. There war a brief calm in the examination for # few mo- ments after that. ‘Then there came another ontbroak. This was when the blood-stained knife found under the mutilated body of Shakespeare was pro- duced. Mr. Friend held the knife in bis hand and asked him if he had it on him when ne wus arrested in Newtown. He sprang to his feet and again lifted his trembling hands to heaven and impiored Allah to bear witness that he had no kmife then; that no knife, was taken from him then, Mr. Friend passed the ugly-looking, blood- sintned weapon over to him. He took it delicately between Lis thumb and forefinger aud held it out at arm's Jength before him, juwly balancing it. ‘Then Mr Friend asked him if he ever owned that knife. He held it out still further from him, and, shaking 1t swittly in his hand, said, With another outburst of passion, that be had never scen it before he saw it in the court room; that it was not his, that he had never owned it. : OCENT, KNIFE NOT MINE.” The prisoner told his age, his length of resi- dence in thiscountry, his service in the Franco- Prussian war and of his honorable discharge from the French army. He sobbed when he waved his hands at the jary and denied that he had killed Carrie Brown. "He denied the own- evship of the knife which the proseention at- tempted to fasten upon him. He also explained how he got blood upon his stockings and shirt. He was then handed over for cross-examina- tion. ‘The cross-examination concerning his life before he came to this country was a rigid one, and he was alsoclosely questioned concerning his relations with the various female wit- nesses. 204 Defendant admitted that he had been ar- rested and convicted of petty larceny in Brook- lyn. He was shown the knite-taken trom him in Brooklyn and admitted he had brought it from Brazil. He was shown the knife in evi- dence and, rising in his seat and speaking en- ergetically, waving the knife in the air the while, he cried: “Innocent! Innocent! Knifs not mine! In jail four times for nothing!” EXPERT TESTIMONY. A prominent witness for the defense was Dr. Huidekoper, dean of the University of Peun- sylvania. Witness is an expert. He said the substances found in the intestinal fluid of Carrie Brown's body might come from other sources. Dr. Justin Herold testified that it was impos- sible to scientifically determine from what part of the human economy bloud was tak The drift of all this testimony was to dis- prove the theory of the people that the Pres ence of the substances named, found in the blood spots examined, indicated that it must have come in contact with the contents.of the small intestines.

It is impossible to STOLE FOR HER WEDDING. Miss Duff and Mr. Cameron Arrested Just Before Marriage. Miss Carrie Duff, the nineteen-year-old niece of Levi Bird Duif, a well-known Pittsburg at- torney, was arrested upon the streets of that city yesterday for stealing over 2.000 worth of diamonds from several of Pittsburg’s lead- ing jewelers within the past forty-eight hours. When taken tothe station honse she so im- pressed Inspector McAleese that he afterward said of her: “She was the boldest thief that I ever enme in contact with. She stood up and with a gesture of contemptexclaimed: ‘How dare you, sir, order my arrest in this manner? What have Idone? 'll make you pay dearly for this. Levi Bird Duff is my uncle, and Iam a lady, sir, not a criminal.’ ” . With her was arrested John C. Cameron, a well-known young man, who is treasurer of the Metro) g Clab. Investigation re- vealed that Miss Duff and Mr. Cameron ‘were tO be marriegl last night. Cameron was short in his accounts, and, furthermore, they needed money for wedding expenses and a wedding bs Inspector MeAleore snid that after much per- suasion and several hours’ continuous effort he succeeded in getting the young woman's ver- sion of the story. She denied everything until the detectives prodnced pawn tickets, showing where she hnd pawned the diamonds. Then she ‘fainted. After she recovered she said Cameron had taken out a license to be married Jast night; that she told Cameron she would raise the money, and she had taken this method of stealing to do it; that was all. Later her uncle appeared and had her released on his bail for £2,000. Fricnds also went bail for Cameron for €1,500, and both departed under bond, to ap- pear in court on next Thursday. Last night they were merried at the home of Mr. Cameron aud drove merrily away in a cloned carriage. ‘The diamonds which the young woman ap- proprinted consisted of four stones of special value. ‘Ihe smart appearance of Miss Duff dis- armed suspicion and gave her success. Her methods were those of the shoplifter. She ste- ceeded in taking up the diamonds from the tray when the clerk’s attention was momen- tarily attracted elvewhere. The theft was dis- covered at the Briggs establishment immedi- ately upon her departure and her description was immediately given to the detectives, who made the arrest within a few moments upon the strect, Atthe pawnshops Miss Duff said that a mortgage was about being foreclosed on herhouse and that if by pawning her jewelry she could secure money to prevent it she pre- ferred doing so to selling anything. She raised abont #250 on the stones. At the various stores she gave different names, as she also did at the pawishops. It ishynted’ that her family ob- Jected te’ the marriage. soo PROMPT WORK WITH BLACKMAILERS. Bank Cashier Smith of Fort Worth De- clined to Be “Bled.” On Wednesday afternoon two men went to the Merchants’ National Bank at Fort Worth, Tex.and calling Cashier A. B. Smith into a private office, one of them pulled a note book from his pocket and tore two leaves out of it and handed them to Mr. Smith. Tho leaves contained what purported to be a detectives diary of the actions of Mr. Smith, whom the man claimed he had “shadowed” the day previons and traced to divers places, among them many of bad re- pute. ‘The spokesman remarked: “These con- tain something which is very damaging to you, ana if there is anything in it for me I will try to have it suppressed.” Realizing that he was being’ jobbed, Mr. Smith drew a revolver,with the remark: “You sit just where you are; you are just the fellow L| want, and [have you just where I want you.” With 'this remark “Mr. Smith held the purties covered and called to an employe to telephone for an officer, and the would-be blackinailers were soon landed in the station house. ‘The men are strangers in the city. tee “OLD DRY LAKE.” An Engineering Party Sent Out to Investi- gute the Colorado Desert Flood. The Southern Pacific Company sent out yea- terday from Yuma an engincering party to in- vestigate the appearance of the large body of water in “Dry lake,” to the southwest of Salton. The latest information from Yuma is that the waters have not only flowed along the old channel into what is called the “sink,” but have broken outa little to the north of the point where they’ usually overflow, that is, néarét to Yuma. Every year there is a flow of water in the sink, which travels along the old channel and then gradually evaporates and subsides as the year progresses and the waters of the Colorado river fall. The old San Diego and Yuma stage line has a bridge over the oid channel and ten months in the year no one would know why such a bridge had ever been built, ‘There is also.a ferry there, which has been used during the annual flood. ‘To the north of the sink and te the southwest of Salton there is in some maps of the state a long, bean-shaped tract marked “Old Dry lake.” Between it and the sink there is, however, a high ridge of elay. In “Old Dry jake” there ‘is now water cover- ing an area of thirty miles in length and twelve miles wide. It is only twenty-one inches deep, however, and the ground when dry is thirteen feet six inches below the level of the tracks. ‘The theory ot the Southern Pacific engineers i the water from the sink has percolated the ground under the clay ridges and so has ip “Old Dry lake.” ‘here is no fear ever, olicials say, of water ever reaching the tracks, because evaporation is very great, especially under the intense heat now existing inthe desert. The stream running into Old Pry lake pours in at a rate of wbout four and a half miles an hour, and it is to determine the source of this stream that the engineering party started on a trip of discovery yesterday.
