APTEMPE 10 BRING IN HOTEL RESISTER Defense Charged With Terrorizing Witness NIGHT SESSIONS UNLIKELY Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. LA PLATA, Md., July 8.—The knowledge that Eugene Hall, the young man with whom Mrs. Belle Farrall, accused of pots- oning her husband, is charged with holding criminal relations, and who, the state claims, is the cause of the wife's alleged desire to end the existence of her husband, would be in court attracted a larger at- tendance to the town hall this morning than on any previous day of the trial. The intervention of one day of rest did not seem to have benefited the prisoner to any appreciable degree, and when she reached La Plata this morning the anxious look on her face was still noticeable, but it had been supplemented by an expression that plainly betokened defiance. In addition to the little boy who has been Mrs. Farrall's almost constant com- panion since the hearing began, her other son, a handsome and interesting little chap of four years, sat beside his mother today. The accused, until yesterday,. had not seen this child since her departure from Hughes- ville several months ago, and the devotion of the pair as displayed in co. rt was ap- parently genuine. Eugene Hall found it impossible to give surety in the sum of $1,000, as required by tke court, to Insure his attendance as a witness. and consequently spent Sunday in the custody of two stalwart deputy sheriffs. Hall Again on the Stand. On the stand today he displayed marked nervousness, toyed energetically with a handkerctief, and later substituted for it a fan. During the testimony of her al- leged lover Mrs. Farrall sat with head resting on her left hand and with eyes balf closed. After Hall had stated that since the adjournment of céutt Saturday no conversation had taken place between counsel for the defehse and himself, he wrote his name, “Eugene P. Hail,” on a slip of paper at the request of the state’s attorney, who desired the witness to sign his name as Hall stated he aig on the reg- ister of the American House In Washing- ton last fall. Hall reiterated that on the occasion in question he registered as En- gene P. Hall, and that Mrs. Farrall did not accompany him to the hotel. In answer to questions the witness suc- cessively stated that in company with Bruce Thomas he called on Mrs. Farrall, at her request, the Sunday following the death of Mr. Farrall; that he never showed Engineer Fergang any letters purporting to have been written oy the accused, and thet he reyer visited the American House with Mrs. Farrall and registered as J. B. Dale and wife. When you were in Washington last fall did Mrs. Farrali ery for five hours?” asked Mr. Mitchell. “She did not,” said Hall. “Did you make such a statement to’ Mau- rice Fergang?” “He's a lar, sir, if he says I did,” was the emphatic reply. Tait ite . The state then produced what It claimed to be the register of the American House for 1894. It was intimated that the pame “Eugene P. Hall” could not be found therein among the’ November entries, and Mr. Mitchell requested Hall to point out to the jury the signature which he testified he had inscribed. An objection by the defense and sus- tained by the court was made to the intro- duction of the volume offered In evidence, on the ground that the state had not proven it to be the authentic register of the Amer- ican House for init. A summons was issued for the attend- ance of the proprietor of the hotel, and the defense not desiring to croés-examine Hall, he was directed to vacate the stand. ‘The state then called Maurice Fergang, for the purpose’ of impeaching the testi- mony of Hall, but the defense entered strenuous objection, and, after a long argu- ment, the court sustained the objection, and an exception was noted. She Kiss Hall in Broad Day. Wm. Z. Acton, a youth residing near Hughesville, testified that about 7 p.m., September 22 last, he was standing near Farrall’s Hotel, in that town. Hall.alight- ed from a train and approached the hotel. Mrs. Ferrall descended from the plazza, met Hall at the yard gate and kissed him. It was broad daylight at the time. J. E, Joy, who was with the deceased on the night he was taken {ll was recalled, and stated that about 1 p.m. December 13, three days before Mr. Farrall died, while in the card room at the hotel, he glanced out the window and saw Hall and Mrs. Farrall kissing in the kitchen. During an argument jn support of an ob- jection to a question ‘asked Mr. Joy, Mr. Mitchell declared that the state had ex- perlenced great difficulty in securing the attendance of witnesses, and then went on to say that “there seems to have been means used to get certain witnesses away, and also attempts have been. made to ter- rorize witnesses.”” The statement was not challenged, and It being 1 o'clock recess was taken. Judge Briscoe stated to The Star’s cor- respondent this afternoon that owing to the heat the court will not hold night ses- sions unless the necessity for such be- comes apparent by the future proceedings. Story of Eagene Hall. Eugene Hall was called to the stand late during the session cf the court Saturday afternoon, and as soon as that fact became known throughout the town nearly every one then outside the town hall entered to hear the testimony of the man who Is con- idered the most important witness in the case. Hall is about twenty-five years of age, and {s a very ordinary, healthy Jooking ycung man, his appearance not denoting a marked degree of intolligence. He is what is termed a “hostile” witness—cne forved to testify against his will. Prior to the trial he refused to have anything to say to the attorneys, informing them that he would make his s ement before the court. During the snort period he was under fire Saturday he undoubtedly suf- fered considerably, being bathed in a pro- fuse perspiration and continually mopping nis face with a handkerchief. Hall testified that he had known Mrs. Farrall since last summer and had -board- ed at Mr. Farrall’s hotel for a short period. He saw the accused at Marshall Hall in September, but declared’ the meeting to be accidental, and added that he did rot stroll off in company with Mrs. Farrall in the direction of the graveyard of the Potomac resort, as was testified by the brother of the deceased. He admitted vis- iting Washington in November last, .but claimed that he was not in company with Mrs. Farrall, although she journeyed on Nicotine Neutralized _mylt-28d ——— a 14th st. now, ns No Typewriter 2, ©: pitbon. | The best on the market_Is_ the .

The witness denied emphatically that he hail ever put his arms around Mrs. Farrall, that he had ever received other than one or two business letters from her, and had ever shewn any letters received from her to a third person. Hall admitted that he lied when he told certain parties that letters in_his possession were from Mrs. Farrall. The majority of the queries plied by the attorneys were answered with “I don’t re- member,” and it was plain that Hall means to make a general dental of the facts that have apparently been established by other witnesses. 2 After court adjourned there was a gen- eral exodus from La Plata of court officers, witnesses and visitors who desired to spend Sunday at their homes. —_s CONTRACTS AWARDED.

Prite, a young merried man who has been keeping a small grocery stcre at 633 L street southwest, was a prisoner in the Police Court this morning, the charge against him being arson, it be- ing charged that he set fire to his store early Friday morning. Neighbors discover- ed the fire, and gave the alarm, and when members of the fire department reached the scene of the fire they found that the place was saturated with oll. An oil cup half filled with the fluid was found on the steps. The proof showed that the owner of the store did not make an outcry when he saw the place burning, and neighbors had to turn in an alarm. When the flames had been extinguished Policeman Schneider spoke to Price, who, he says, denied that he had any insurance on the place, when he had $800 on the store and furniture, hav- ing taken out the pclicy, so it is charged, two days before the fire occurred. Judge Miller heard the proof, and held the defendant in $1,000 security for the action of the grand jury ——— PENITENTIARY SENTENCES. Judge Cole's Action in Three Cases Brought Under the Edmunds Law. ‘The motion for a new trial in the cases of Louis A. Dunan, Charles H. Chase and Mary Jackson, alias White, convicted last month of adultery under the Edmunds act, was overruled by Judge Cole tcday, and the defendants were sentenced to a year and a day in the Albany penitentiary. ‘An appeal to the Court of Appeals was noted in each case, and Judge Cole directed that the defendants be admitted to bail meantime in the sum of $2) each. He also directed that in those éases where the sen- tence has been set aside in order to have the Court of Appeals decide whether or not the Edmunds act applies here, the de- fendants ehould be released upon giving a bond in the sum of $250. Later in the day Dunan gave bail, and was released, pending the final disposition of the appeal. ——— THE COURTS. Equity Court No. 1—Chief Justice Bingham. Bispham agt.

COU RT POLICE SCENES Payment of Collateral Shows Coming of Beiter Times. Line of Prisoners in the Police Court and the Sentences Imposed— Seme Discharged. “Times are getting better,” remarked an officer in the Police Court thts morning when the collateral. list -was produced. ‘The list was a lengthy, one, and reminded the court of the condition ,of affairs three or four years ago, when more than 5 per cent of the persons arrested were able to make deposits. Such, however, has not been the case during. past months, and when Bailiff Kendig in Judge Kimball's court had called the names on the list it showed a total of $235, a large part of which was forfelted. ‘The procession was a short one, and there was not the usual large number of police- men about the court. It was a fortunate thing for the prisoners that there were not many of them in court, for the weather was warm, and there are not many places in Washington that are more unpleasant than police cells. There were only twenty-nire prisoners for trial In both courts, and Judge Kimball had mest of them to dispose of. William Bell, a colored boy, who Is known as “Shack” Bell's brother, was the first victim called, and when he appeared at the prison rail and was arraigned on a charge of disorderly conduct he answered Seuilty.” “The court fines you $5,” said tho clerk. “He's not guilty,” said Lawyer Hewlett, who entered court just as the prisoner was disappearing behind the scenes. “But he has plead guilty,” the court told counsel. “But,” added counsel, “he doesn't know whether he {is guilty or not. I understand he was arrested because he was near a game of crap and ran when the officer ap- proached,’ “If he was in a crap game," said the court, “he got off very easy. Ten dollars fs the sual fine in crap cases, and he was fined orly half that amount.” Counsel had a short consultation with the boy and then said he would not ask to have.the case reopened. “He ray be shown to have figured in the game,” concluded counsel, “and a heavier fine might be imposed.” James O'Connor, a man who lives in the section that was once known as “Swam- poodle,” was next in line, and to a charge Vhisky again.” you want to go down to straighten aT do." “Fifteen days.” Disorderly Rebecca, Rebecca Poindexter's name has figured in the ccurt so many times that she thinks she is part owner of this paying invest- ment of Uncle Sam. Rebecca lives In Georgetown, and when she {s at liberty and behaving herself the pclice have every reason to believe there is something wrong. In “Beston” and on “Herring Hill” Rebecca is something of a belle among the colored population, but when she gets a few drinks in her she puts cn her war paint and then makes trcuble for every one with whom she comes in contact. “‘She was very disorderly when I arrested her,” sald a Georgetown policeman to the ccurt, “and even while in custody she vas very abusive and profane.” Vhat was her conduct in the station?” “The same as on the street,” responded the officer. “She was very profane.” “Tea dollars or thirty days,” said the “I think it’s about time these peo- ple were understanding that they had bet- ter keep quiet when under arrest.” Celia Buchanan, a colored woman from South Washington, came next, and her care was a repetition of that of the Gecrgetown woman. “Of all the foul language I ever heard,” said the officer, ‘“Celia’s was the worst.” “Ten dcllars.” : Both Loyed Him. Fannie Johnson and Eymma Lancaster love the same man, and as both cannot have him they are on bad terms. 2 Emma, it was stated, succeeded the other admirer in the,man’s affections, and Satur- day, when they met on 7th street near the market, they acted as if they imagined the whole street belonged to them. “I was valking down the street,” said one woman, ‘when the other one came along switching her dress from one side to the other and holding her head high in the alr. She appeared as if she did not want to speak, but after I had passed she turned around and called me a dirty Dame.” | The girls evidently wanted the court to settle the rights of their respective claims to the young man, but the judge settled the affair by fining Fannie $10." Emma was released. Wise Brown, a well-dressed colored man, was in the procession because he had im- bibed a Httle too much strong drink, and Lawyer Bacon, his counsel, entered a plea of guilty for him. “But,” said the lawyer, “he’s very sorry for what he did and If your honor won't ish him this time he will do better. ‘Ary man who gets in trouble this w: ought to be sorry,” said Judge Kimball “but their sorrow never appears until they get in trouble.” The court adopted the recommendation of counsel and took the man’s personal bonds. William Norton objected to being sent down when ao $5 tine was imposed, and plead for time to get his money. Norton could not get any one to vouch for him and had to go down. Others appeared and were dealt with ac- cording to the facts in the particular cases. SOUND MONE) IN THE SOUTH A Quiet Campaign That May Re:ult in Surprises. — Working for Delegntes to the Na- toval Conventions—Effect of a Business Reviva The “sound” money people are greatly pleased ai the success they are meeting with in the south. It is not only the vic- tory in Kentucky, but the reports they have from various quarters are very en- couraging to their efforts. The principal fight against free silver is being made in that section and a great deal more is being done than {s publicly known. There are just two sections of the country where the silver sentiment is understood to be strong. It is recognized as useless to at- tempt to convert the western mineral states to the gold standard, and therefore the efforts are being concentrated upon the south, where the influence of the ad- ministration can be most effectively exer- cised. There nothing that can properly be done to secure the conversion of the peo- ple to eastern finarcial ideas is being ne- glected. Silver Men May Be Surprised. It is said by those who are watching the course of events that the result of the per- sistent and unostentatious campaign for “sound” money will prove a great surprise to the silver advocates. It is said that conversions are constantly being made among men of influence in various sec- tions of southern states which have been always counted as solid for silver. The re- sult of this, it is predicted, will be to in- sure the selection of a pretty large per- centage of gold delegates from the south to the democratic national convention. It is said also that it will have an influence upon the republican southern delegates favorabie to “sound” money, interferins to some extent with the caiculations of the western silver republicans. It is claim- ed that in the democratic ranks (besides Kentucky) Tennessee, Georgia, Florida and probably Alabama will take the side of “sound” money. - Proxperity and Politics. : More effective, perhaps, than the revival of business itself in strengthening the ad- ministration faction among the democrats is the attitude of the republican press in the encouragement of the belief that good times are coming to stay. The theory of a good many democrats who were disposed to desert the administration, as a sinking ship, is that this general cry of revival of business, indulged without regard to party, is going to so strengthen Mr. Cleveland as to encourage the party to the hope of vic- tory if they hang together. They argue that a universal acknowledgment of a re- vival of business is going to deprive the republicans of tneir chief campaign ma- terial, und to render the public less dis- posed to a change in the managefment of the affairs of the government. Whether or not this reasoning fs logical, it is having an influence to draw the much-divided Gemocracy together. ——__+o._______ THE CYCLE COMPANY REVIVES. The Oldest Enlisted Company of Its Kind in the Country, The Washington military cyclists, known at the National Guard headquarters as the second separate company, turned out twenty-five or more men last Tuesday for a non-military ride to Cabin John’s,. where they partook of a fine supper given by the newly made captain, Samuel H. Wiggin. Speeches and songs were the order of the evening, the boys returning to Washington es moonlight, having had a most enjoyable me. It has been understood, that this organiza- tion, which, by the way, is the oldest en- listed company of its kind in the United States, had been mustered out, but, though through some mismanagement the mem- bership had gotten a little low, the trouble has now passed, and under the manage- ment of Capt. Wiggin is fast moving toward full membership. July 4 the com- pany, under command of Lieut. Libbey, made a practice ride to Laurel, Md., where they were met ‘later in the day by Capt. Wiggin, who took command of the com- pany on the homeward trip. Few know what can be done by cyclists or a ride under difficulties, though the Fcurth of July’s march to Laurel might Mlustrate some of the possibilities. Half wey between Washington and Laurel Pri- vate Mouiden met with an accident to his machine, breaking the forks short off. A halt was calied, the broken bicycle di- vided into three parts, two men each tak- ing a wheel, one the frame and the fourth the rider himself. The marth was then con eimnied in good order to the destina- tion. A most excellent class of young. cycists are connected with this corps, and the rarks are rapidly filling up, and to the cyclist who wishes to connect himself with a thoroughly high class organization, where the study in cycle military work can be carried on under proper instructors, with the advantage of having most pleas- ant companions, this is a great chaiite. The officers do not believe in all work, so at least once a week during the summer, in good riding weather, the organization takes e@ run to some place of interest, their trip to Cabin John Tuesday last being a fair sample of thefr good times. ————__ Fire Department.

OTHERS DO NOT SHARE HIS FEELING The Boys Appeared Lively Enough This Morning. GENERAL SPORTING NEWS HENLEY-ON-THE-THAMES, July 8.-- The Henley regatta begins tomorrow. Cornell, at 3:30 p. m., will meet, the famous Leander Boat Club’s crew, proba- bly the strongest on the river. In view of the depressing accounts circulated regard- ing the health of the Cornell crew, a repre- sentative of the Associated Press had a chat with Chas.. EB. Courtney, their coach, when he arrived at the boat this morning there. Courtney looked very glum and said: “I do not know whether the Cornell crew will be able to row tomorrow. The fact is we have two sick men among the crew who ought not to row in their present condition. They are Hager and Fennell. The latter was In a high fever yesterday evening. The two men, however, may be all right to- FINANCIAL.

But if our boys were fit I should feel very con- fident that there is not a crew on the river equal to them. They have been steadily improving in practice, and make faster time at each trial. In spite of this I am unwilling to take the responsibility of al- lewing sick men to strain themselves in a race. If the invalids are not better tomor- row we shall have to put in substitutes or else scratch. I have done everything possi- ble to keep the men in condition, but they have been unable to contend with the climate, and the little worries to which they have been subjected. If I had the thing to do again I would request permis- sion to bring twenty-five men here, and keep two crews in training.” Courtney does not share the suspicions of Mr. C. 8. Francis, the trustee of Cor- nell University, who accompanied the Cor- nell crew to England, regarding alleged unfairness in the drawing of lots for the different heats, which resulted in pitting Cornell against the Leander crew. Commenting on the drawing Courtney remarke: managed differently than at home. there is one man who Graws the names from a hat and then tears them up, none of the others secing them. But this man was an old-Leander Boat Club man of the highest repute, and if he desired to favor his club he would have given them a bye.” Courtney seems to be over-anxious about the result. He has been working very tard, and there is reason to believe Cor- nell’s prospects are much better than he imagines. Certainly there was no sign of Aiscouragement among them when the boys arrived at the boat house at 10 o'clock.” It is true that some of them lecked pale, but they were all in the best of spirits, and Fennell und Hager were as lively as. any of them. The boys launched their boat shortly after, oClock’‘and rdédé at ‘half speed down the ccurse...All other crews were out and it was admitted on all sides that none of them approached Cornell's form or ap- peared to row as easily. The members of the Leander crew have an undeniable hang in each stroke. Cornell's Good Form. A number of the English coaches were grouped with Courtney on the river bank while the crews were practicing, and one of them said: ‘Well, Courtney, your boys certainly row in the best form, and in bet- ter style than any of the crews on the river. We give them fotr out of six points. Their principal fault, in our mind, is in the short- ness of their stroke, but their blade work and the use of their hands could not be better.” Courtney admits that the stroke of the Cornell boys is not so long as he would like, ard he says it Is simply because Hall will not reach as far as he, Courtney, wants. On arriving at the starting point after their practice the Cornell boys paddled back to their boat house in the best form. The brothers Thompson of the Argonaut Rowing Club of Torento, Canada, who are entered for the diamond sculls, and also for the Steward's cup, with their fellow c!vhmen, the Munz brothers, did the course singly, and then the Argonaut four went over the full course in easy time. *E. A. Thompson of the Argonauts, dis- cussing the drawing of lots at the town hall here on Saturday last, said: “I do not think Mr. Francis was wise in the way he has talked. “Any charge of unfairness in the draw is absurd. The Standard says: “The Cornell crew are trained almost to the hour. Their training involves more self- denial than the English system. If they beat the Leander crew faith in the slower stroke, body swing and other details of English rowing may be somewhat shaken.” The Sportsman says that it doubts the capability of the Cornell crew to defeat the Leander crew, though they are strongly fancied by many of their own people, some of whom do not hesitate to support their epinions in a very substantial manner. The paper will add that the London Row- ing Club crew will have to do their hardest to defeat the Canadians, who are a tre- mendously powerful crew. ee James Poole and John Case, alias Mc- Dowell, have been arrested near Canyon- ville, Ore.
