Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. UPPER MARLBORO’, Md., Feb. 16, 1804. There is absolutely no truth in the report printed in dispatches from here that knots of excited men have been standing about the jail and that a leader was all that was necessary to take from jail the negro “Jim” Allen, who is charged with having commit- ted a felonious assault on Cora Simpson, the twelve-year-old child of Thomas Simpson of Woodmore. The residents of the town have denounced the crime as brutal and as one which in their opinion calls for speedy ac- tion, whether at the hands of the law or a mob. Many taxpayers of the county are loud in their denunciation of the action of the au- thorities in putting on an extra force of guards to protect the prisoner during the first night of his incarceration in jail, and the reasons therefor were not all apparent until after the men went on duty. Some of the guards went to the jail early in the evening, while others did not go until a late hour, The men remained inside the prison most of the time, and one of them declared that a quart bottle of whisky was the only thing in the nature of liquid refreshments to be found in the buiiding, although the noise made at a late hour indicated that there had not been an equal distribution of the “fire water.” In addition to the loud talking and shout- ing inside, several pistol shots were fired cutside, and it is stated that the firing was done by some of the men who had been sworn in to protect and defend the county prison and the negro charged with the dastardly crime. It was stated by a man in authority that if the lynchers appeared they would have little trouble to get the prisoner, as they would be met with but little resistance. Pistol Shots Heard. Yesterday during the day the reports of pistol shots and shot guns were heard on the outskirts of the town and The Star’s correspondent was informed that the residents were emptying their weapons in order to get thern ready to use ia case ‘of emergency, for he said they may have an opportunity to shoot at the form of the Negro dangling in the air from the | large elm tree near the jail or from the iron beams of the bridge where Vermillion suffered death for burning barns. During the day the jail is often without a guard and the prisoners are left alone, only, of course, they are confined in sepa rate cells, During Wednesday night and yesterday the prisoner professed that he was not frightened and so stated to the guards, although he spent a large share of his time on his knees praying. Some of the other prisoners were perhaps more badly frightened than Alien, ~ Persons coming in from the outlying districts yesterday did not fail to ask: “Did they get him?” and the response was followed with a look of disgust and a re- mark questioning the bravery of the citi- zens. Some few, and they were far be- tween, expressed a desire to see the law take its course. The Guard Vigilant Last Nigh The novelty had worn off the duties of those who had been summoned to guard the prisoners and last night they went to the jail appazently more in earnest thar they did Wednesday night. Some of those who had made an objection to being called upon were not ready last night, but were willing to serve. Some of them were on hand be- fore the time for the chickens to go to roost, and soon after sundown the member of the squad were all inside the jail bu ing out of the cold wind, fo> in there t warden had a hot fire, and some of the m were soon asleep, for they had not had any rest the night before. It was supposed t each man was armed with a weapon of some kind, and the kinds were rather numero! All sorts of old revolvers, shot guns ard muskets that had been kept over from the war were brought into requi: mm, and thus the prisoner had apparent reason to feel a degree of security not felt by any person outside of a government arsenal or fort. And he did feel so if outward appear- ances count for anything, for he made use of the rema>k, “They can't hang me.” This he repeated a number of times, and. although he realized his danger of convic- tion, he protested his innocence, and at the same time seemed to feel reasonably certain = the Baltimore penitentiary awaited im. ‘There was not the usual number of men about the hotels and stores last night, ow- ing to the fact that so many of them were on duty at the jail, and those who were pot doing duty remained at home out of the cold. Then, too, they felt certain that noth- ing unusual would take place, for that is really not expected until after the heaving. The perfect condition of the jail fence early this morning made it apparent that the jailor’s charge was still safe. A brigl light was to be seen through the window of the warden’s office,whe-e the special were asleep, and owing to the se’ the weather it was late in the morning be- | fore there were many persons on the strect. ——— DR. BUSEY’S RECEPTION. He Entertains the Members of the Medical Society Last Evening. Dr. Samuel C.Busey entertained the Medi- eal Society of this city last night at his resi-! dence, corner 16th and I streets, and the so- ciety, almost to a man, turned out to ac- cept the hospitality of its president. The object of the reception was a formal intro- duction to the delegates from the older societies, who have assembled in Washing- ton to fittingly commemorate the seventy- fifth anniversary of the society. This cele-! bration tdkes place at the National Rifles’ | Hall this evening, and will be followed by a banquet at the Arlington. The reception lasted from 8 till 10, and a large number of physicians partook of Dr. Busey’s hospitality. The guests were re- ceived in the front parlor by Drs. 8. S. Adams and George C. Ober, who presented them to Dr. Busey. In the hack parlor a table loaded with good things tempted the | guests. The following were present: Dr. | Wm. A. Bartlett, Gen. Sutherland, Gen. Moore, Col. Alden, Dr. John 8. Billings, Dr. Anderson, Dr. Edie, Dr. W. G. Glazebrook, Dr. M. W. Russell of Concord, N. H.; Dr. Wm. Elmer of Trenton, N. J.; Dr. Froder- ick C.

Senator Pugh took the floor immedaitely upon the closing of the doors and spoke for an hour and a half against confirmation, as representing the judiciary commiztee, of which he is chairman. His speech was addressed main- ly to the legal qualifications of Mr. Peck- ham, which, he said, with much positive- ness, were entirely inconsistent with the duties of a jurist. The nominee, ne sdid, was more the biased and prejudiced special pleader than the impartial of looking on both sides F983 tion. He also opposed him for his atti- tude in certain elections, when Mr. Pugh said Mr. Peckham had proved by his ac- tions that he was not a good democrat. Mr. Pugh spoke for an hour and a half. His language was temperate, but, as Sen- ators pronounce it, direct and to the point. Mr. Lindsay Defends Peckham. Mr. Lindsay followed. He is a member of the judiciary committee, and his re- marks were directed to Mr. Pugh, in reply to that Senator's arguments why Mr. Peck- ham should not be confirmed. He spoke for about the same length of time that Senator Pugh did, and concluded after 5 o'clock. Senator Lindsay made general defense of the selection as one cal- culated to in every way meet the require- ments of the high office, and he said that ro one could have a higher appreciation than himself of the qualities necessary to render a man acceptable for a seat on the Supreme bench. He believed, too, that tae President had due regard for all the Pro- prieties in making the appointment, and thought he should be sustained when the man chosen met the requirements as did Mr. Peckham. He admitted that letters had been received by the judiciary commalites, criticising Mr. Peckham for some peculiar- ites of disposition, but said that in no in- stance had any one charged a lack of in- tegrity or of a high sense of honor. And while such letters had been received it must also be borne in mind that letters jest as strong in indorsement as the oth- ers were in condemnation had also been sent to the committee, and from men of just as high standing at the bar and as capable of passing intelligent judgmen He attributed many e@f the H 4 letters to the peculiarities of New York politics, and dwelt at con: length upon this phase of the opposition, treating the politics of the empire state as one of the complicated questions of the day— an entangled mystery beyond the com- prehension of the ordinary uninitiated mortal. He dwelt humorously upon the New York situation, but said seriously that he thought it was having by far too sreat an influence in deciding an import- ant national question. He therefore ap- pealed to the Senate to disrecard this influenc> and dispose of the nomination upon the merits of the nominee and thus permit the Supreme Court to continue its work as it should and not as at present crippled for want of the constitutional number of judges. He referred in this connection to the political charge that Mr. Peckham had opposed the election of Senator Hill as governor and said that under such circumstances as exist in New York it was hardly fair to punish a man for one or two tances of political de- reliction. He believed that even if this charge were true that Mr. Peckham was by nature and inclination a democrat and worthy the confidence and indorse- ment of his party. He made no reference in his remarks to the instructions passed by the Kentucky legislature for their Senators to vote against confirmation. Messrs. Harris and MePbersen for Pee! Senator Harris and Mr. McPherson made short speeches during the session in sup- port of Mr. Peckham. Mr. McPherson spoke of him from the standpoint of per- sonal acquaintance and said that knowing him as he did he was satisfied of his fitness for the office. Senator Harris’ re- marks were devoted to the general ques- tion of the President's right to appoint and of the Senate's privilege of advising, saying that in a case like the present, when the appointee was worthy, it was the duty of the Senate to confirm. It was late w! Senator Vilas began to speak in the interest of confirmation, and as it was evident that he was pre- pared to make a long speech @ was made that perhaps it would be more satisfactory to postpone further consider- ation cf the nomination until today. Sev- eral Senators stated that they had en- gagemerts for the evening and all assent- e4 to the proposition. It was agreed that the Senate should at the close of the morning business today again go into executive —+2-+— The board of managers of the San Fran- cisco Press Club have cited M.H.
