HE IS NOW IN JAIL Buck Auffort Charged With Helping the Ferry Robbery. IMPLICATED BY BILLY WILLIAMS Virginia Citizens Hunted Him With Shotguns. DENIES HIS GUILT Charles, alias “Buck,” Auffort, one of the alleged safe blowers, on whom “Billy” Williams, the confessed criminal,‘peached,”” was arrested at Gordonsville, Va., yester- day morning, and at 8:30 o’clock last even- ing he was landed in the sixth precinct station in this city. Ever since the confes- sion made by Williams three weeks ago implicated Auffort Detective Horne and Weedon have been straining every effort to effect his capture. So certain were they that he had gone down in Virginia that the officers went down there on more than one oceasion and made searches in Orange county, where the prisoner’s wife lives. But each time the fugitive had succeeded in getting out of the way before their arrival, and it was not until yesterday morning, when Sheriff Ricketts and a posse of cit- izens went after him, that he was captured. Several times the officers here located their man and telegraphed requests for his arrest, but each time hé managed to elude the officers. Inspector Hollinberger, who has also taken a great interest in the case, telegraphed the Richmond authorities Sun- day that the fugitive was there, but when the officers went for him he had left the house of a relative and was not to be found. Auffort had not much money left of the “divide,” if he, was really a party to the affair, and was therefore unable to make much’ of a journey. This is probably the reason why he did not get beyond Rich- mond. When he left Richmond Sunday morning the officers had every reason to believe that he had returned to the home of his wife and child, about three miles from Orange Court House, and Inspector Hollinberger at once telegraphed Sheriff Ricketts: “Get him by all means. All ex- penses will be paid.” The Capture. This was probably interpreted as mean- ing that a reward for his arrest would be raid, for, according to the statement of the prisoner, the citizens turned out en masse and hunted him with shotguns, revolvers and all other weapons. He left the home of his wife again yes- terday mornirfy, intending to return to Richmond, and was followed by the sheriff and citizens. At Gordonsville, he says, he was seated in the car when about twenty armed citizens drew thelr arms and com- manded him: “Throw up your hands, or we'll shoot!”” This stern command was probably neces- sury, for the alleged safe blower was armed with as dangerous a looking revolver as was ever made, a Mervin, Hulbert & Co.'s 44 caliber. But the sheriff and citizens had guessed their man, and were not willing to take any chances with him. When first ar- rested the prisoner denied his identity, but the sheriff was sure of his man, and so he took him at once to Orange Court House, and soon had him behind the bars. Town Sergeant Bailey of Gordonsville also figured prominently in the arrest of the fugitive. Soon after he was captured a telegram was received here announcing the arrest and Detectives Weedon and Horne left on an afternoon train, returning in the even- ing at 5:30, as already stated. On the return trip the prisoner talked freely with the officers about his arrest, al- though he said very little about the crime, except to deny the statements made by Williams, so far as they related to him: “If you ever want a man arrested in Vir- ginia,” he said to the officers, “offer $10 and all the people will turn out with their guns.”” In, the party of citizens who were with the sheriff, Auffort said,was a hotel keeper, and he said he was armed with a gun. Auffort said he had stopped at his hotel, had spent money in his bar and had hired carriages from him. “I drank in his saloon in the evening and spent my money,” said the prisoner, “and when he closed his doors he came looking for me with a gun. I wish I had gotten one crack at him, and I know I would have warmed him wu < The Long Search. As soon as “Billy” Williams made his confession implicating the prisoner the of- ficers felt satisfied that Williams had told the truth, for they knew the men were companions, and Detective Horne had watched their movements even before the daring robbery was committed and had seen them connect in the park near the Baltimore and Potomac depot. With thes: facts in their possession the officers di- rected all their efforts toward capturing Auffort. ‘They soon learned that his wife, who was a Miss Kniser, was living about thyee miles from the county seat of Orange county, and they felt certain that he would go to see her. He had been a huckster and ‘had been in the habit of going through the section of the county where his wife re- sides. He was here after Willlams and Desmond were arrested, and it is said he was at Williams’ house the evening before the confession was made and was going to arrange for the release on bail of his al- leged “pal.” But when he learned of the confession he disappeared, and it was thought that he had gone off on the huckster wagon. It was thought probable that he would re- turn shortly, but this he did not do, and the officers have had to do some hard work. ‘Their efforts were rewarded yesterday by the capture of the prisoner, which was due to their work and the assistance of the Virginia authorities. The Other Man. Now that the prisoner {s under arrest and will be turned over to the marshal and sent to jail, the detectives will turn their at- tention to the capture of the man known as “Jack” Dempsey. They have already paid some attention to him, and speaking to a Star reporter today they said they felt certain that they would capture him in a short while. The country people about Orange and Gordonsville will now have a good time en- deavoring to get the supposed reward for the prisoner Auffort’s arr But no re- ward has been offered. ‘The first man to claim the reward was ‘Town Sergeant Bailey of Gordonsville, who sent the first dispatch notifying the of- ficers of the arrest. His dispatch reads: “I arrested Charles Buck Offut and claim the reward.” When the officers reached Orange yester- day afternoon the first question asked was about the reward, and one countryman with a long beard said: “I’ve driven all these fifteen miles with my gun and then ain’t going to get the reward.” District Attorney Birney was notified of the arrest and return of Auffort, and asked what course should be pursued. The revolver focnd on Auffort, the police think, belonged to “Eddy” Desmond, who was the only one caught {n the Jackson City raid. At the time of his arrest eight cartridges, 44 caliber, were found in his pocket, and the police think he had bought them for this particular weapon. This afternoon the prisoner was measur- ed and photographed for the gallery and was turned over to the marshal and sent to jail. —_—_—__ His Goods Burned. A suit at law, in which Felix P. Seibert claims $4,000 damages, was filed today against the Washington Abattoir Company. The suit grows out of the destruction by fire last June of the works of the company at Benning. At that time the plaintiff claims he had $2,500 worth of meats, hogs, lard, ete., stored with the company in its warehouses, and that his goods were total- ly destroyed through the fault, careless- ness and negligence of the company. He claims that he would have made a profit of 31,500 on the same, and therefore prays judgment against the company In the sum of $4,000. —— Gole Will Case.

Another Indignation Meeting — Wait- ing Now for the Action of the Police Trial Board. Three or four hundred colored people, men, women and children, assembled at the Metropolitan Baptist Church, R between 12th and 13th streets, last evening to listen to the memorial prepared by the colored Baptist ministers, and which, some time ago, they submitted to the District Com- missioners, asking for the removal from the force of Policeman Green, who early in last March shot and killed Reuben Foster, a young» colored man, at Hillsdale. Mr. Perry H. Carson presided. Brief addresses were made by the Rev. Walter H. Brooks, Mr. E. M. Hewlett, the Rev. J. Anderson Taylor and by the pastor of the-church, the Rev. Robert Johnson, and after the memorial had been read and adopted the mee*ing adjourned, subject to the call of the chairman. The Rev. Mr. Brooks made the principal speech of the evening, and ail the speakers denounced the shooting of Foster as a cowardly, inexcusable crime, and demand- ed that the Commissioners should at once remove Officer Green from the force. Ju- ries, said Mr. Brooks, do not always tell the truth, although he was not disposed to question the conclusions of the two grand juries who had passed upon the case of Policeman Green. He declared that the shooting of Foster was a cruel murder, and he ridiculed the idea that the shooting was an accident. He referred to the Ford's Theater disaster, and claimed that while Col. Ainsworth had been held responsible for the accident, the anger of the com- munity at one time being barely restrained, the only reason that he had been held re- sponsible was because his victims were white people. Because He Was Black. The officer who was responsible for the killing of Foster, a so-called accident, he said, had never been held responsible, be- cause Foster's skin was black. Policemen guilty of such accidents, said Mr. Brooks, should not be allowed to retain their places on the force, and if they were, the District should be held responsible for their incom- petency. He for one was in favor of suing the District on behalf of the mother of Foster, and compelling it to pay for having such men as Green on the police force. Mr. Brooks said he was in favor of law and order, and advised his people to be patient, but to vigorously demand the removal of Green, for it was plain to everyone that the officer had violated the police regula- tions, and should therefore be dismissed. If this reckless shooting of colored men went on unchecked, he said, it would some day react on the white people, and the exoneration of Green would be referred to as a precedent when, some day, a white man was shot down. He was sorry to say it, Mr. Brooks remarked, in conclusion, but he believed that Col. Ainsworth had been indicted because his victims were white, and Green had not been indicted because his victim was a black man. The Memorial Adopted. The memorial submitted to the District Commissioners, heretofore reported in The Star, was read and unanimously adopted, after which Mr. E. M. Hewlett addressed the meeting. He complained that some of the newspapers had charged that the color line was being drawn by the colored peo- ple, but he declared that the coroner's jury ana the two grand juries had drawn the color line. He, for one, would never be satisfied until Officer Green was tried before 2 jury, and he predicted that the officer would in some way be yet compelled to face a jury. He also declared that the eclored people would wait a very long time if they waited for the white people to hold an indignation meeting because of the killing of a negro. The colored people, he declared, have sat quietly by for too long a time. He remarked that the more a dog was whipped the easier it be- came to punish him. He referred to the sudden death of Sergt. Kerby, the friend of Officer Green, as the hand of Providence. Rev. Mr. Taylor declared that if the Com- missioners refused to remove Green the President would be asked to remove the Commissioners, and if the President re- fused to remove the Commissioners the people would be asked to remove him. The closing address was made by Rev. Mr. Johnson, after which the meeting adjourn- fed to await the result of the trial of Po- liceman Green by the police trial board.
