THE DANA LIBEL CASE Arguments of Counsel at the Hearing in New York. An Adjournment O'Clock This Morning—Points Taken Until 11 of the Lawyers. In the hearing at New York yesterday to decide whether Charles A. Dana, editor of the Sun, should be sent to this city for criminal libel on Mr. Frank B. Noyes, Mr. Root, counsel for Mr. Dana, began to speak the moment United States District Attorney MacFarlane concluded. He re- viewed the history of the case. He occa- sicnally referred to statute books, and at frequent intervals read from sheets of elcsely writter: matter. Mr. Root spoke for three hours and an adjournment was taken at 5:40 o'clock, the argument to be resumed at 11 o'clock this morning. FolNowing is a summary of the after- noon’s proceedings: Mr, MacFarlane—‘If your honor please, on the 7th of March there was presented in the Supreme Court of the District of Co- lumbia an indictment by the grand jury, charging Charles A. Dana and Wm. M. Laffan with having committed the crime of libel, by publishing and circulating in that District certain copies of the New York Sun. The indictment was sent to this dis- trict with a bench warrant issued thereon, the defendants not being found in the Dis- trict, and upon the indictment and warrant the customary complaint was made out there before a commissioner, who issued the warrant, and one of the defendants, Charles A. Dana, was brought before the commissioner and the identity of the de- fendant having been proved the commis- sioner made the usual commitment.” Mr. MacFarlane then explained why the application was made, and gave a descrip- tion of the proceedings before the commis- siorer on the 18th of March, when Charles A. Dana was identified as one of the de- ferdants mentioned in the indictment. Mr. MacFarlane then referred back to a previous case, in which an application was made to remove Mr. Dana to Washington for a former alleged libel and that al- though Judge Blatchford decided that it could not be done Mr. MacFarlane claimed that the judge had overlooked one of the statutes in rendering this decision. Mr. MacFarlane then said: “By the act of March 3, 1891, defining jurisdiction of the police courts in the District of Columbia, libel and conspiracy are expressly men- tioned, showing that tney are recognized as crimes in the District and liable to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court, which has general jurisdiction over all crimes.” after citing two cases in support of his application Mr. MacFarlane concluded, having spoken a little over half an hour. Mr. Root’s Argument. Mr. Root, in replying, said: “In this pro- ceeding the defendant, a citizen of New York, residing in this city, has been ar- rested by a marshal of the United States, under a warrant issued by a commissioner of the United States in this district, and has been brought before the commissioner. ‘The warrant was issued upon an affidavit made by the United States district attor- ney, which charged no offense, but set forth upon information and belief that an indictment had teen found against a per- son named in the warrant, by the Cir- cult Court of the District of Columbia, his arrest was asked for, and to this affi- davit was anrexed what purports to be a copy of the indictment. Upon being brought before the commissioner the in- dictment, or the alleged copy of it, was offered in evidence, the defendant having dcmandéd an examination, and a witness was put upon the stand and asked certain questions, for the purpose of identifying the person then before the commissioner, and upon that the government rested. The defendant objected that no probable cause had been shown for the issue of the war- rant upon which he was arrested or for any further process of commitment; that no probable cause had been shown support- ed by affirmation; that there was no proof of any offense committed, either here or in the District of Columbia.” Judge Brown—“That was the indictment. I see the affidavit of the United States at- tcrney states that it is an exemplified ecpy.”” Mr. Root—“I shall also endeavor to show your honor that there was not sufficient evidence. Mr. Dana offered to prove af- firmatively that there was no probable cause that he was guilty of the crime charged, and he offered to prove affirma- tively that no offense had been committed by him within the District of Columbia or within the jurisdiction of the court which it is alleged found the indictment, and that it should be excluded. “It appeared before the commissioner that the defendant was a citizen, not of the District of Columbia, but of the city of New York, a resident of New York and that he was actually in the city of New York at the time of which the alleged crime was committed. Now, it is obvious that the question as to whether the de- fendant shall be taken from his home in New York to the District of Columbia to be tried for a criminal offense committed there by reason of the fact that he was the editor of a newspaper published in the city of New York, copies of which came into the ordinary course in the city of Washington, was of importance to the entire press of the United States, and that the proceeding is a proceeding in which it is not only the right of counsel, but of the courts, to consider the questions of juris- diction, of power and of right from the foundation. “The authority under which it is sup- posed that this proceeding may be main- tained by the government is, as I under- stand it, te be found in section 1014 R.S. It is a reproduction in substance of the thirty-third section of the judicial act of Unconastitutionality Claimed. Mr. Root then read from the statute books, and argued at length that the pro- ceedings were unconstitutional, and that if the judge decided to issue the warrant for removal it would be a violation of the fourth amendment of the Constitution of the United States. Later on he said: ‘My proposition now is that the offensive libel is one single of- fense; that, granting this charge be true, the article. Mr. Dana is said to have written and published in this paper in the city of New York was a libel, and that if he did write it and publish it, it was but one offense committed by the publishing of all these papers in the city of New York— not 100,000 or 200,000.” After speaking for three hours, Mr. Root concluded his remarks by saying: “I sub- mit that it is your duty to say that there is no probable cause supported upon oath or affirmation; that there is no proof be- fore you of a valid indictment; that there is no statut2 of the United States which authorizes the removal of this defendant to the District of Columbia for trial for an offense against the law of that District; that the courts of the District of Colum: bla have not had jurisdiction conferred upon them to try any case, as it appears on the face of these papers. The defend- ‘ant was not actually there when the of- fense was committed, and the offense was, if committed at all, committed chiefly in another jurisdiction, and that this offense was not committed within the District of Columbia within the meaning of the con- stitutional provisions in regard to the place of trial, and that your honor should refuse the warrant of removal.” —_+e+—_____ The Palais Royal “Opening.” The Easter “opening” at the Palais Royal is proving an object lesson that wo- men seem to appreciate. The millinery dis- play includes many models from Paris. A Virot hat of black Neopolitan braid has the brim turned off the face, with big bows of plaid ribbon each side and feather quill in crown. This jaunty hat is aptly named Rob Roy. A black jet Napoleon, by Julia Dermotte, 1s made attractive with tur- quoise velvet bows, gold and turquoise sequins and saucy-looking feather and aigrette. Madame Josse sends an cffective punchinello of braided straw, with wing and rhine stone ornament at each side, ribbon rising conspicuously from center. ‘The unusual shade of this hat attracts the eye. It is bluet; robbed of its harshness by a sunset glow. A woman will be troubled only by the number of hats at the Palais Royal. Choosing is made difficult. ———— A New Carpet Cleaning Plant.

A tremendous excitement, caused by the frantic efforts to escape of Wallace Barnes, an insane man, whe was being taken to St. Elizabeth's Asylum by Detective Rhodes, from the custody of the latter, teok place in Anacostia yesterday, Barnes was placed in a hack at police headquarters, and, as he did not appear to be of a violent disposition, Detective Rhodes thought that he would get along with his charge without serious difficulty. The party had, however, hardly left the detective bureau before Mr. Rhodes found that he had on his hands all that he wanted to be bothered with for the time being, and, although he was able to keep Barnes under control until the south end of the Navy Yard bridge was reached, Barnes then became very unruly. By main strength Detective Rhodes kept Barnes in the carriage until the top of the hill near the entrance to the asylum was reached, when Barnes forced the door of the carriage open and jumped out, running down the hill and through Hillsdale and Anacostia with the swiftness of a deer to the corner of Harrison street, where De- tective Rhodes, who had followed him in the carriage at full speed, overtook him. The detective at once realized that alone he was not able to handle Barnes, who is a powerfully built fellow, and the former summoned Mr. George H. Gray to assist him, and the two captured Barnes and forced him into the vehicle. A second time a start was made for the asylum, bat the party had gone only a lit- tle way when Barnes broke through the opposite side of the carriage and again started off on a run, this ume towards the east end of Anacostia. Detective Rhodes hastily called on Mr. George Frederick, who happened to be passing, to assist him. Barnes was tken recaptured, and the third time placed in the carriage, which was hurriedly driven to St. Elizabeth's, and the violent_man placed in the charge of Dr. W. C. Godding, the superintendent. —— nase TELEGRAPH ANNIVERSARY. A Tablet to Mark the Spot From Which the First Message Was Sent. The site of the old Inner railroad depot, which in the years that are long gone by stood on Pratt street near Light, Balti- more, is to be marked with an appropriate tablet by the Telegraphic Historical So- ciety of North America to commemorate the location of the Baltimore end of the experimental telegraph line which was opened between Baltimore and Washington in 1844. The site of the old station is now occupied by a cracker factory. The tablet will be historical in character, probably representing the construction of the first telegraph line between the two cities; a profile of Morse, the father of the telegraph, and the instruments of an early period placed alongside of those of the modern age, as showing the vast improve- ment in the mechanism. It fs not certain that the exact spot whereon the instru- ment stood can be located, but it can be approximately done. This instrument is in the transportation exhibit of the National Museum, and the card which indicates it is described as follows: “This instrument was at the Baltimore end uf the experimenial line from Wash- ington to Baltimcre in 184, and, in charge- of Alfred Vail, received the first’ telegraph- ic message ever sent out from Washington. The message was from Prof. S. F. B. Morse, at Washington, and read, ‘What hath God wrought?’ ” The instrument which was used at the Washington end was unfortunately de- stroyed. Both instruments were made at the Speedwell iron works at Morristown, N. J. The one on exhibition at the museum was in actual use for six years, or until it Was superseded by improved sounders. The slip of paper (for it must be remem- bered that the Morse alphabet was inked on paper by the receiver), with the original message, is in the possession of the Wads- worth Athenaeum ot Hartford, Conn.

Moore and Policeman Sutton of the first precinct expected to make a good haul yesterday afternoon about 4 o'clock when they learned that a colored porter in a 13th street saloon had been sent to a pawnshop to get a loan on a handsome crescent diamond pin. The two men who sent the porter out to get $130 on the pin were strangers, and at the pawnshops where the porter took the pin he was re- fused. When the police reached the saloon the men were gone, but the officers were informed that they had a number of dia- monds, and so they went in search of the missing men. Werd was sent to police headquarters, and Detective Boardman, who responded, assisted the officers. The two men were overtaken at the Baltimore and Potomac depot, and were escorted to police headquarters, where they gave their names as Frank Grant and Isaac Law- rence. They had more than $5,000 worth of diamonds on them, but they were soon identified by Mr. Burnstine, the pawn- broker, who knew the men well. He knew them as dealers in precious stones, and they were not detained as prisoners. ‘There are many persons who deal in dia- monds in this way, and who often find it profitable to pawn the stones and then sell tickets. This is what these men were Ke when the police learned of their Pre: ence here and thought an investigation would do no harm, ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS, Some Notes of a General and Local Interest.

The Daisy Chain Guild held a meeting yesterday afternoon at the Woman's Club to consider the matter of the establishment of a contagious diseases hospital, and also the question of what to do with the funds which have been raised by the guild for the purpose of endowing such a hospital. By its fairs and bazaar the children have ifanaged to raise a sum of money which has been wisely invested and, with accrued intgrest, now amounts to $10,352. The many set-backs which the movement to provide such # hospital has received has served as a wet blanket to the enthusiasm of the children, so that from a membership of upward of 400 a year ago only about twen- ty attended the meeting yesterday after- noon. Every time a site has been select>d for the hospital for the treatment of minor contagions the guild has stood ready to aid it with liberal funds, but every time some objection has been raised to the site, so that today the hospital seems no nearer to hand than it was years ago, and =he ques- tion naturally arose as to what thé guild should do with the money in its possession. __ Mrs. Archibald Hopkins presided at ihe meeting and spoke of the urgent need of a hospital in this city. All the efforts of the guild had been negatived and it was now a problem whether its work should be con- tinued or abandoned. She said that a part of the fund had been spent during the past winter to aid the Children’s Hospital, and she read notes from the board of managers of that institution thanking the -hildren sincerely for their timely assistan>e. Health Officer Woodward was present at the meeting, and he was called upon by Mrs. Hopkins to speak upon the subject. Dr. Woodward said that the power which has prevented the erection of a hospital has not been either the sentiment aroused by the physicians of the city or the real senti- ment of the public, but a hysterical-fear that has been aroused on purpose by the men who are interested in Washington rea? estate and are afraid of having their land values depreciated. This fear was utterly groundless, said Dr. Woodward, for so emi- nent an authovity as Dr. Billings had stated that the Width of a street was sufficient with a well-conducxd hospital of this sort to remove all grouné@ fer fear of ccn- tagion. The suggestion that a contagious ward be fitted up at the Children’s Hospital was made by Mrs. Hopkins, but Dr. W. W. Johnston opposed this most earnestly, and said that he thought the establishment of a contagious ward in a hospital devoted to small children was one of thé most danger- ous things in the world. It was impossible to get much satisfac- tion from the physicians present, although they heartily indorsed the work of the guild and urged that it continue. Dr. Kerr of the Emergency Hospital took the ground that there was no real danger if minor contagions are treated in a separ- ate ward in any hospital. In the course of bis remarks he sai: do not believe that the people of Washington will ever let a contagious hospital be built inside the city, which is the only place it would be of any real value. Therefore, I would recommend that every hospital should be compelied to maintain a contagious ward for its own and outside cases. If this were done the crying need fgr a special contagious hos- pital would be very largely relieved. Of course a separate building is desirable, but when that cannot be had, you can fit up the top story of a hospital with a separate outside stairway and isolate it as complete- ly_as though it were on the next block.” The whole question was discussed at length by the meeting, without any very definite conclusions being reached. The members of the Daisy Chain Guild, how- ever, decided not to disband, but to con- tinue the good work; and a spring market, on the plan of the ore held so successfully last spring, will probably be given the lat- ter part of this month or early in May. ———— The Fender Question. The Columbia Railway Company has not as yet replied to the recent letter of the Commissioners asking if it has complied with the regulation requiring the equip- ment of its cars with fenders and wheel guards, and if not, why not. The delay in making answer, it is understcod, is due to the fact that the Columbia company is securing data to be made use of in an ef- fort to convince the Commissioners that the Robinson fender, now in use on the new cable cars of the company, is superior to any other fender that has been sug- gested. It is stated that the Robinscn fender has been in use for years on the cars of the Broadway and 3d avenue roads in New York city and its operation has been most sucecssful. A jelezation representing the Columbia company Merday last called on the Commissioners and expatiated at length on the virtues of ‘he Robinson fender, which, they claimed, is ideal. As soon as reports ‘arrive from the New York roads, where the fender nas been in use for some time, the Columbia company will reply to the Commissioners and urge their approval of the Robinson fender. : ster Concert at St. Elizabeth's. Quite a party of the friends of Dr. Simp- son drove out to St. Elizabeth's last night and either witnessed or took part in a high- ly enjoyable concert given for the enter- tairment of the inmates. The affair was a success in every particular. The concert was followed by a short dance, and the ests were afterward entertained most hespitably by the resident staff. Those who lent their ebilities to make the musical pro- fr am a success were Miss Bell, Mrs. Holmes, Mrs. Tom Noyes, Mrs. © ence Rheem, Miss Minnie Bailey, Mr. Rake- mann, Mr. Lawrence and Mr. Howard Ny- man, a Charged With Perjury.
