Ex- Congressman Sidney E. Mudd is the wo- man’s counsel and he promises to have her in Port Tobacco when the county is ready to try her. Mrs. Farrell’s husband, who is said to have been an old man and crippled, kept a large store at Hughesville, which is between La Plata and Port Tobacco, and his sudden death gave rise to a rumor that he had been poisoned. When a chemical analysis had been made of the contents of his stomach an indictment was returned. M Farrell had then been in this city some days and had been watched by the police, but she got word of the result gf the coroner's inquest before the police and went to Baltimore. Sheriff Albrittain of Charles county has been here several times in connection with the case, but the woman has not been ap- prehended. Her coun: of the District will Mrs. La Fetra Sat- to 10 o'clock. whose pres- were Howell and Hulfish, as already stated, says he will have her in court when the ‘county is ready to proceed with the trial, he would have surrendered her long’ ago had it not been for the fact that bail could not be given and she would have to remain in the.Port Tobacco jail for months, 7 eo AIRED IN COURT. era Mr. Fields’ Law Otice Was the Scene of Trouble. Teresa Burke and Mrs. Minnie Fields, who figured in a conflict in Lawyer Thos. M. Fields’ office several days ago, as pub- lished,in yesterday's Star, appeared in the Police Court this morning, and Judge Mil- Jer acted as arbitrator in the case. Lawyer Fields was not in court to witness the trial of Miss Burke, his clerk, who was charged with having assaulted his wife. Mrs. Fields’ father accompanied her in court. Both Miss Burke and Mrs. Fields were stylishly dressed, but they didn’t speak as they passed by. The case lasted only a short while, and the lawyer’s name did not figure Jargely in the case, as he was not present in his office at the time of the as- sau The nature of Miss Burke's employment in Mr. Fields’ 4 1-2 street office was in- quired into, and it appeared, from the testl- mony, that she is in charge of the entire business during his absence, and she oc- cupies a room on the upper floor in the house. A young man does most of the typewriting. Mrs. Fields told the court that just one year ago she and her husbend sepa-azed, and she had called to see him several times during the year. When she went to the office of her hus- band Miss Burke and the young man were there. The young man left the room and she waited there awhile. When she got tired of waiting she got up and started to leave the oitice, leaving word for her hus- band that she had been there and had aten x ace him. ut she said Miss Burke got in her way and closed the door. Instead of allowing her to leave, she said Miss Burke tore the veil from her face and slapped her. Mrs. Fields was questioned by counsel for Miss Burke concerning her separation. She denied that her husband had told her to keep away from the office, and said that iss Burke ard her husband were on in- mate terms. The young man employed in the office as typewriter also gave testimony. Miss Burke told him to ¢o up stairs and then she called him back when the trouble was ovel A colored man employed there also gave evideuce. Miss Burke had nothing to say, but her counsel argued that the assault was only a technical one, and he thought the woman should not be punished. Judge Miller took a different view of the case. The wife was in the office, where she had a right to go, he said, and when~ she started to leave, Miss Burke had no business to act as she did. Miss Burke was fined $20, which she paid, —_——>__ MEETING TO PROTEST. Hillsdale Citizens to Discuss the Kill- ing of Reuben Foster. A secret meeting of some of the residents of Hillsdale was hela last right at the house of ore of them on Nichols avenue for the purpose of arranging for a meeting tonight at the Hillsdale A.M.E.Church,when a second attempt will be made to collect funds to be used in prosecuting Policeman Green for the killing of Reuben Foster. The events which occurred at the meeting on last Monday night were also discussed by most of thosg present. It was deter- mined that tonighi’s meeting should be held at all hazards, and that those in charge should depend on their own ar- rangements for the preservation of order. John Green was appointed sergeant-at-arms, to select as many assistants as he might consider necessary to conduct the proceed- ings in a qufet manner, and to keep out- side the building all persons who might be regarded by him as likely te incite t mult, and especially Lawyer John A. Moss and W. Taliaferro. Messrs. Henry Un- derdue, Alien Jackson and Henry Sayles Were appointed a committee, and Rev. F. M. Ovelton, pastor of the Hillsdale A. M. E. Church, was requested to accompany them, to call on the District Commission- ers today and ask Commissioner Truesdell to order that two or three policemen from some other precinct than the fifth, be as- signed to duty near the Hilisdale Church tonight in the interest of law and order. Resolutions were drawn up for action to- night denouncing the killing of Foster and expressing the conviction that the police of Anacostia ani Hillsdale had been lax tn their duty. > Street Signs. A letter has been written by the Commtis- sioners to the secretary of the Washing- ton Gas Light Company declining its offer to replace the old and broken street desig- nations on the company’s lamps with new blown glass signs at 2714 cents each.
