No case since the femous Pitts murder case, that was tried in this same court room on a change of venue from one of the eastern shore counties, has attracted anything like the amount of interest that has been centered in the Hains trial since the very June evening when the fatal shots were fired. When the case adjourned yesterday well to- ward dark, Judge Goode was engaged in ma ing the final argument for the defense. He had reached an advanced stage in the oration, but had still several hours more talking to do before he would be willing to trust the interesta of his young client to the decision of the jury. To many people in the audience the splendid showing made by the two Washington lawyers, Messrs. Lipscomb and Shillington, was of even more interest than the efforts of the older law- yers, Messrs. Wise and Goode, whose reputa- tions were already established in Virginia and from whom it was known that much might be safely expected. Messrs. Lipscomb and Shillington have been pitted against cach other in the present hear- ing and both have made most favorable im- pressions as shrewd lawyers and cloquent speakers, JUDGE GOODE RESUMER. After the court was formally opened this morning Judge Goode continucd his address made the events of the past week here of the | for the defendant. The latter entered the court room alone and took his usual seat, where he sat chatting pleasantly with » mem- ber of his counsel and one or two friends be- fere the well-known Norfolk lawyer resumed the appeal in his behalf. Col. and Mrs. Hains and the other members of the defendant's fam- ily entered a few moments later and took their seats beside the defendant. Judge Goode occupied the interval by slowly turning over the leaves of @ large-sized calf- bound law book, and when everything was ready and quiet restored the judge raised his ponderous frame from his arm chair and towering high above the heads of the jury began his address to them. “I hope,” said he, “that you have come into court refreshed. This trial hae been in pro- gross for one week, and during a long experience I never looked into the faces of a jury who expressed a deeper in- terest in the evidence and addresses. Your part in this solemn drama is nearly over and you may soon return to your customary avoca- tions. I shall be brief as possible. but I trust you will bear with me,for my feeble words will be the last spo to you in behalf of thedefendant before you retire for your deliberations,and I should never forgive mysel? if [should leave a word unsaid that should have been said in the interest of young man whose life to a certain ex- tent has been intrusted to my hand. Yester- day I attempted to show that it wae not possible under the law and the instructions from his honor for you to bring in a verdict of guilty, either in the first or second, for the reason that the defendant had no malice in hisact and entertained no grudge against the deceased. There can beno manslaughter where the killing is the resuit of necessity. “It is now my pleasure to attempt to prove to you that my client is entitled to an acquittal on the ground thet he acted under an im- | perious and overwhelming necessity. It is your duty to let the captive go and return him to the arms of that mother who has sat through the trial, watching its every turn with a depth of feeling that only a mother's heart can feel. An, who can measure the depth and breadth of « mother’s love? Well, well might Coleridge say: ‘A mother is the holiest thing alive.’ COMMANDER EVANS’ TESTIMONY. “The Ajax Telenon of this case is Robley D. Evans and you are asked to send my client to the gibbet because otherwise the scnsibilities might be hurt forsooth. But if Robley Evans says the defendant stepped forward end fired two shots at the heart of his best friend without rovocation, then, gentlemen, my client is incne. He i a madman. No! man ever acts wihout some motive, and I ask | you all to look beck over your own carcers and | tell me if you ever know a man to shoot his beat friend on earth vithout reason or motive. If Robley Evass saw what he says he did and then wentinto stpper and acted ns he himself | says he did, then I say, he was unworthy of the | encomiums that have been passed upon hima in this trint He was the deadly enemy of ThornionJ. Hains and came upon | this witness stard biased and seeing every- thing with a jaundiced eve. His deport- ment in this room would show him to be the mortal enemy of the defendant. How anxious he was to testify vhen questioned by the com- morwealth. how slow to answer when ques- tioned by the defase. And yet you are asked to send this poor boy to the gallows because it is Robley D. Evans who testifies against him. “Commander Frans on the quarter deck is wwolute monarch,but Evans in the court room Easy weekly or monthly payments.

Remembe the instructions of the court asked for by the commonwealth that if you must distredit the part of a yitness’ story about which he onght not to be milstaken then you are at lilerty to throw it all out. ‘That ‘rule may = to be a boomerang. Upon that ruling Congnander Evans’ testimony comes in very questictable shape, and -I lenge it. Remember he discrepancies of Mr. Evans’ story. As lighthouse r stationed ‘at Fort Monroe he slould have known the barge. and Lincoln Smith, the colored mate, as going to eupport the plea of self-defense. DISCUSSING THE WOUND. Peek’s testimony as to the wound in the elbow, he said, could not possibly have been inflicted tf the deceased was sitting down aud rowing at the time of the shooting. When the first shot entered — the heart the wounded man’s arm must bave fallen to his side according to the physician's story, and this would ueconnt for the course of fl ball on the theory that the man who was shot was standing up at the time. As for Lincoln Smith's story it mattered not whether the jury believed it or not. He was summoned by ‘the government, but Judge Goode said “he was on hand to say that Lincoln Smith showed __more neibility and feeling than Robley Evans, Col. Bird and G: All heard cries for help iroma the boat, but this unlettered African was the only one who showed mercy and pity in that trying hour and attempted to out in a ‘boat to the help of the who wae making an outcry of distress. He vas compelled to desist by the orders of Capt. Gray. Smith told of a quarrel in the cane be- fore he heard the sound of shots and Iter, in the cabin of the Large, he told Gray that the man who shot had been by an oar. ‘This was before he could ba: approached by any outsider. He bad no pri- vate vengeance to wreak. ‘There was no enemy of Hains in Washington to fill his pocket with blood money and yet that witness 1s to be discredited and his story whittled down the wind by the able gentleman representin; the commonwealth, because that unlettere | man had placed his’ mark upon «paper ut the coroner's inquest, the contents of which he knew not of. In Judge Goode's opinion, which he would repeat uutil the cows come home, Lincoln Smith told the truth of the occurrence as he knew it, This story must leave more than a reasonable doubt in the minds of the jury, and to doubt was to acquit. With such a story as that in evidenco it was the duty of the jury to bring in a verdict of not guilty. MAINS’ TERTTNONY NOT IMPEACHED. When tho defendant came upon the stand, Judge Goode suid, the able lawyer from Wash- ington had a feeman worthy of his atecl, but he ras afraid to subject him to a rigid cross-cxamination ich as he inflicted n poor Lincoln Smith and the lawyers for the commonweulth sat av dumb as oysters, ‘Thornton J. Hains was a competent witnoss, unimpeached and uinmpeackable,and it was the duty of the jury to try the case upon the testimony as it was presented to them. The testimony of the defendant was before them and must be taken. If they believed the story as the defendant told it that must bo the end of the case, und there was no reason why it should not be believed. The defendant hinuself was in evidence before them asan hon- est man, unimpeschable as to truthfulness, and the commonwealth hud feared to attack his story. ‘The defendant,'animated by the God-given spirit without which a man is no better thar a brute, acted simply in self-defense. The oar in the hands of an athlete like Hannegan was @ more dangerous weapon than a little pistol in the hands of Hains. When the two cartridges that the pistol contained wero dis charged it wasabsolutely uscless as a weapon, whilea wreng blow with the oar could be corrected and blow after blow struck until tho victim fell senseless at the fect of the an- tagonist. Hains was the only witness to what liad actually occurred in the boat. ‘The commonwealth, Judge Goode said, would have them disbelieve this story because Mr. Kobley Evans did not see the occurrences that happened according to the defendartt. Evans was simply a uegative witness, and one positive witnces was worth a dozen negative witnesses. Senator Voorhees, ay counsel for the defense in the fainous Biack case in Maryland, was himself authority thet negative testimony would not stand as against testimony given as io what actually had happened, and Judge Goode quoted at length from the speech made by Senator Voorhees in that trial in support of what he claimed as to the right of self-defense. “Ob, Lintend to quote all that myself,” said the Senator. “Then my client is safe,” remarked Mr. Goode. “Weill see about that,” answered Mr. Voor- hees. It was grim sort of repartee, but it drew forth a slight ripple of half-hearted laughter from the audience. Mr. Goode repudiated the doctrine that when his client realized that his life was in danger he should have sought safety in the water and swam ashore, yelping like a whipped cur. ‘This was not right nor was it law. The man does not stand and wait the dart of acoiled rattlesnake nor does the hunter stand patiently waiting the spring of a crouching tiger before he sends forth the swift leaden death. It is the apprebension of danger and not the actual danger that justi- fiesdefensive action. Thornton J. Hains ap- peared before the jury and swore that he ap- prehended that his life was in danger and on this ground the defendant was entitled to anac- quittal. THE KILLING NOT PREMEDITATED. Mr. Goode said that the presgnt killing could not have been a premeditated one because it was not determinedly fixed upon before the act done. ‘The provocation was the shifting ef the oar and the advancing step that induced the defendan? to believe that his life was in imminent danger. It was for the jury to decide whether the defense had proved ex- tenuating circumstances, and they had proved that the pistol was in tho possession of defoniant for = perfectly lawful purpose; the testimony, he said, had brought the defendant in the letter and spirit within the instructions granted upon the request ot the defense and which called for an acquittal. ‘THE QUESTION FOR THE JURY. ‘The question for the jury im this case, ac- cording to the court, was not whether the tak- ing of the life of the deceased could have been avoided, but whether Hains had grounds for believing it was necessary to. resort to extreme methods to preserve his own life or to provent himself from receiving serious bodily injury. The law presumed the defend- ant to be imiocent; Mr.Lipscomb presumed him tobe guilty and had been paid to come down here to obtain a conviction, whether the de- fondant was guilty or not. He thanked God that, notwithstanding the impassioned appeals of the avenger, there was a wise and honest judge who said’ that the burden of proof lay with the prosecution. THE QUESTION OF JURIADICTION. Judge Goode eaid that an essential feature of the indictment was that the killing took place within limits of Elizabeth City county. It rested with the prosecution to prove that the killing had taken place within these limite. He denied that they bad proved it and asked Seuator Voorhees what position he intended to take in the matter. : Senator Voorhees replied that he did not in- tend to instruet the court on a matter with which it ought to be much more conversant than himself. It was a question of law that should be settled by the court, A lawyer of tho standing of Judge Gunter and familiar with the neighborhood should be the one to answer the question of jurisdiction with out any assistance from him. Judge Goode argued the point of jurisdic tion at some length, maintaining that the shooting did not occur within the county,but in Hampton Roads. ‘The indictment charged murder in the county and they had entered a plea to the in- dictment on the ground that the testimony of the county surveyor had proved that the shooting occurred outside the county. He left to the jury as amatter of fact to be decided under what instructions the court might see fit to grant them. e speaker paid a most glowing tribute to the character and eloqt eo Indiana juence of Seuator and tho motives and the friendship for the Hannegan family that had induced him to come to Hampton and engage in this trial. He kad come to guard the memory of his friend, the dead young man, but not one word bad been spoken against the dead boy. Otiello’s occupation was gone and there was no reason why he should prosecute now. It ‘would not bring back the de another poor bo; would not make things any better to send a poor father and mother down to their grave weeping for their son, to cut off a we, man in the prime of his youth or send ‘to the mitentiary rig like ® common felon, stirring tones Ji length it he wharf, but you know Loe badly he ppt Tew Agee As TO OTHER WITNESSES. “as for Col.

Newport, R. 1, Sept. 15.—The marriage of Miss Sallie Hargous, who two or-three seasons ago was the belle of society here, to Duncan Elliott took place this noon in All Saints’ Chapel.

The killing of John Smith, a colored black- smith, last night at Edward's Ferry, on the Potomac river, by Robert Stevens, hae created unusual excitement in that vicinity. The par- ticulars of the tragedy as developed before the inquest held today before Acting Coroner Jonathan Talbott wero that the difficulty arose in regard to a carriage whip, which Smith had in his possession and which Stovens attempted to take away from him. As the latter advanced toward Smith he threw the whip upon the ground and grasping Stevens by the thront dragged him to a bridge across the canal and attempted to throwhim off the same. ding his life in danger, Stevens drew a revolver and shot his assailant first in the log, but as this bad no effect he afterward shot him in a vital part, killing him almost instantly. After hearirg the evidence of several eye-wit- nesses to the affair the jury decided that the shooting was done in seli-defense and Stevens was discharged. ae es FITZSIMMONS’ DARING ESCAPE, The Night Watch Was Omitted and the Prisoner Took French Leave. Prrrsnuno, Pa., Sept. 15.—Frederick C. Fitz- simmons, the murderer of Detective Gilkinson and a desperate thief, escaped from the county jail at Go'clock this morning. The escape is tho most daring ever effected in this part of the country. He was incarcerated in a cell in murderers’ row, on the first tier, awaiting his trialfor murder. He was to be tried next week. Fitzsimmons had already been convicted on several charges of robbery. The prisoner gained the jail corridor by sawing the bars on his ceil door. Ho then scaled the wall, reaching the top of the building, where he used his saw on the bars of a window overlooking the warden’s residence. By a most desperate teap he gained the roof of Wardea Berlin's rosidence, thence — de- acended to the jail court by means of a lightning rod and then scaled the high stone wail by means of arope that could have been secured only by means of outside assistance, From the top of the jail wall he jumped to the oof of ahed on the Old aveaue side of the jai a THE OCCUPATION OF SIGRI. It is Denied by the British Ambassador to Turkey. Loxpox, Sept. 15.—The Turkish minister of the interior telegraphed to the British ambassa- dor at Constantinople,Sir Wm. White,asking the latter to explain the reports as to the landing of a British force on Turkish territory. Sir Willlam in reply said that he was entirely ignorant of the whole affair; but, he added, it was probablo that the ‘crows of some British warships may have landed on tho island of Mityleno in the copree uf the regular boat drills and landing exercises. The British ambassador assured the Turkish minister that no fortifications had been constructed on the island by British troops. This view of the case was con- firmed by dispatches received here during the nigui, which stated that the | force which been Ianded from the Bri war ships had re-embarked and that the men- of-war bad left the Island of Mytilene for Mar- morito. Sir Wm. White made the same explanations to the other embassies. —— BIDWELL GAINS FREEDOM. After Eighteen Years’ Imprisonment for Forgery He is Pardoned.

Cutcaco, Sept. 15.—The action of the wheat market was a surprise to everybody this morn- ing. The trade looked for lower prices after yesterday's flurry and this feeling was reflected in the first of the transactions. December closed yesterday at 973{ and the opening price today was that toy lower, but there was ur- Rent baying from all parte of the pit and the price went booming, touching the dollar mark Within the first ten minutes. When there was time to inguite into the causes none could be discovered except a gen- oral covering by shorts and the fulfilling of out- side orders from persons who were buying on the war rumors of yesterday. Local traders were not inclined to make much of the Dardanelles incident of yesterday; cables were merely firm; the weather in England was cloudy, and the receipts here were eighty- five cur loads under the estimates. The buying ceased at $1, and a reaction foliowed which eat- Tied the price down to 9834. It fluctuated be- tween that figure and 99 for some time, and at 11 o'clock stood at 93%. Corn was weak. ‘The weather through the corn belt was warm and clear and well suited for maturing the crop, and the local receipts wore 170 car loads above the estimates. Octo- ber opened at 55 against 5634 at the close yes- terday, advanced with wheat to 56, broke to 55i¢, rallied to.563¢and at 11 o'clock stood at 36. Provisions opened firmer, pork started at 10.55, sold up to 10.60, then broke to 10.45 and at 11 o'clock stood at 10.50. —_—_ IN WALL STREET TODAY.

CONGRESS. ‘The United States Avsociation Begins Its Annual Session Here, PRESIDENT HUIDEKOPER's AXXUAL apDRESs— ‘€MEX ADMITTED TO HONORARY MEMBERSEIP— A REPORT ON THE EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS AXD THE PROGRESS OF THE SCIENCE. The United States Veterinary Association com- menced its twenty-cigth annual meeting at Willard Hall ft 10 o'clock this morning. The session will last over today and tomor- Tow, ending in a blaze of glory at a banquet tomorrow night. The meeting thi morning was called to order by the president of the association, Dr. B.S. Huidekopor of New York, whose reputation as an expert was wellknown. The president isa young man with fowing blonde mustache and pleasant features. In his button hole wasa bright red rose and in his hand his an- nual address. The secretary of the association is Dr. W. Horace Hoskins of Phil- adelphia, who proceeded to call the roll of the association. There were present in the hall a good number of energetic lookit members. A number were marked by a handsome yellow badge and these were the members of the local commit- tees on arrangements, consisting of William Dougherty of Baitimore, E. 8. Waimer, G. C. Faville, A. W. Swedburg, A. W. Clement, C. B. Michener, W. H. Martinet and F. L. Kilborne. PRESIDENT HUIDEKOPER ® ADDRESS. The first business today was the reading of the annual address by the president. Dr. Huidekoper's address gave a clear summary of the advances which .the association had made. He called on the members to scan carefully tho list of proposed members and thereby keep up the standing of the associa- tion. 2 He referred in a highly complimentary man- ner to the secretary, Dr. Hosking, and Rave @ summary of the program for the sessions here. He also advised that the members strive to keep up the interest in the different state asso- ciations, which should aftiliate with tbe national association. The reading of the address was followed by the reading of the minutes of the last meeting, held at Chicago. TO MEET IN CHICAGO NEXT TEAR. The report from the Comitia Minora, which met at New York lately and at the hotel this morning, was presented. At§the New ¥ meeting it had been decided that the meeting in 1892 be held in Chicago. At the meeting of the committee this morning @ number of applications were favorably reported by the eouimittee, and others received unfavorable section. The association pro- ceeded to tuke up the various recommendati of the comitia minora. The action choosing Chicago as the next place of meeting was in- dorsed without discussion. Recommendations in regard to forms of application blanks were likewise indorsed. ADMITTED TO MEMBERSHIP. ‘The first breeze of the day came on the un- favorable recommendation of the committee on the proposal of Theobald Smith and James Law, the former of the Agricultural Department and the latter of Cornell, as honorary members. Several members wanted to know the reason for theaction. Dr. Winchester and Dr. MeLean explained that Dr. Smith was eligible in the association for active membership and his ap- plication would probably be favorably consid- ered. Honorary membership, however, both men pointed out, should be dealtout sparingly ‘The report of the committee invited practi- cally both men to come into the association as active members. The recommendations of the committee in regard to the proposed members were then adopted. A large number of active members were then elected on the favorable re- port of the committee and s number of mem- Fs’ names were dropped for non-payment of dues. A recommendation from the committee, ad- vising that the salary of the secretary be rained from £100 to $200, was taken up. ‘The present fecretary, in a few remarks, advised the adop- tion of this recommendation, prefacing his re- marks by the statement that’ under no cireumstances would he accept a re-election to the oflice. An amendment rais- ing the amount to €250 per year was warmly seconded. Dr. Clements proposed that the secretary be given u fair salary and his nec sary expenses. In discussing the ques- tion many members took the opportunity tosay anumber of pleasant things concerifing the resent secretary of theassociation, Dr. Horace joskins. After discussion the recommenda- tign of the committee was adopted. VETERINARY COLLEGES. The reports of various committees were then read, the first being from the committee on in- telligence and educativn, read by Dr. Peters of Boston, Mass. Dr. Peters thought the veter- | ingry colleges and schools of the country had advanced at an equal pace with the other in- stitutions. ‘Today nearly all the veterinary colleges re- quired three or four years fora diploma, where formerly two years was all that was thought necessary to turn a practitioner loose on a con- fiding world. Dr. Peters gavera summary of the institutions of learning which had taken up this branch of. medicine. Many of the short course schools gave advantageous instruction. The granting of veteriuary degrees by the age cultural colleges for an ‘exceedingly limited course was depiored by Dr. Peters, although he saw no help for the. matter. A summary was given of the various methods proposed for the ulation of veterinary practice. He did not believe that the central government should take a band in the matter, the government having its hands fuli in the disposal of pen- sions. Ahigh standard of veterinary training is what the association should demand, and schools which did not keep up to the standard should not be recognized by the association. Dr. Peters gave an interesting idea of the original requirements which a student of veter- inary medicine should have. The peculiar tact in regard to animals, and especially the horse, must be always found. cary Koch's treatment for tuberculosis in animals was designated by Dr. Peters as generally a failure. The idea, however, he charaeterized as not a new one, and probably one which will be found useful to some animals where the disease has broken out a drove of animals. Reference was made to the hospital for the treatment of bydro- phobia in New York, and to the adoption by the Massachusetts militia of the plan of attach- ing aveterinary surgeon to the artillery and ‘cavalry companies with the rank of lieu- tenant. ‘This plan, said Dr. Petors, he hoped to seo adopted | by other states and by the oguacomne, ‘The report referred at length to the bureau of animal industry of the Agricultural Depart- ment. This department, said Dr. Peters, was the only official recoznition which veterinary sur- geons received wiich they could look at with pride, and they therfore felt especially privi- jeged to praise and criticise the bureau. Inits practical workings the bureau, said thedoctor, had ractically eradicated pleuro rocemenle in ‘country, and thie “work alone over an over for the burcau In" its estontide’ " weskictse however, the bureau, according to Dr. Peters, was pee ero nd sf ite efficiency. Refer- ring juest swine diseases, the re- i pepo fsa he bare oud ey ut worl re m the conclusion of Sa At col the report the associa- tion adjourned for lunch, which was tendered by the veterinarians of Ws and Balti- more. DISGUISED AS A DRUNKEN SAILon. Balmaceda Escapes From Chili on a United ‘States War Vessel. & DRAMATIC STORY FROM VALPARAISO—HE AP PEALS TO ADMIRAL BROWN AND 18 ASSISTED BY THAT OFFICER IX HIS FLIONT—AN acTION WHICH MAY CAUSE SOME BITTER FEELING. ANew York eral cable dispatch dated at Valparaiso September 14 says: Balmaceda has eacaped from the clutches of his enemies, and is now safe on the high seas under the protec- tion of the United States flag. All the time the soldiers of the junta were guarding the snowy Passes of the Andes to provent his getting into the Argentine Republic, and the police of thenew provisional government were searching the Monasteries in and around Santiago for the fa- Bitive ex-president, he was hiding in this city. Here he was more apt to escape detection than anywhere clse, for his opponents never dreamed that he would dare to return to Valparaiso, they being assured he had fied from it Balmaceda had chosen his refuge wisely, for ho was enabled to throw himself upon the mercy of Admiral Brown of the flag ship San Fran- isco und beg to be saved from the revenge be ared from his foes. Admiral Brown did what all other foreign admirals would have done under similar cir- cumstances. He stepped in to save possibly a human life. In the name of humanity he con- sented to afford Balmaceda the suelter of bis ship and the protection of the stars and stripes. How to effect the ex-promident's escape was the Rext question. It was seen that it would be a most difficult undertaking, Balmaceda being 80 Well known to and cordially hated by so many residents of Valparaiso. THE PLAN OF ESCAPE. After many plans had been suggested, dis- cussed and rejected as too risky, 0: last hit upon that it was thonght wo succesefully. ‘This was nothing less than to have Balmaceda disguise himself as a drunken United States sailor.

GARDAGE SERVICE IN OTHER crTiEs. In the statement which cecently appeared in Tax Stax concerning the collection of garbage in Boston a typogruphica: error made it appear that the city paid 224,000 per annum for the removel of garbage, when it should have read $124,000. A like error occurred in the amount of garbage removea in the city of New Orleans. Instead of reading 30,000 tons per day it should have read 30,000 tous per year. —_ LWS AND GOSSIP.

Both the State and Navy Departments are in ignorance of the reported escape of Balmaceda tothe San Francisco, but it is said that if the ex-president has succeeded in getting aboard a United Staics naval vessel he will not be surrendered.
