F.- Edward Miichell, counsel for Kate Vandevere, dhe young white woman who was acquitt€d Thesday last of breaking into the dwelling $f Frederick Mertens and robbing it e ED. séveral hundred dollars’ worth of jJeWelry, yesterday afternoon filed with Judge Magngr certain charges against Warden John RP Leonard of the Disirict Jail. = The woman, as reported in The Star at the time, re#ently: refused to come out of her cell when wanted in court. She barri- caded the door of her cell, and so persisted in her refusal to open it that the jail offi- cials were compelled te climb a ladder placed outside the jail and direct a small stream of water against her. Even thal did net cause her to open the door, and after not a little trouble the door was finally forced open. The woman is what is known as a morphine fiend, and it is claimed that she became obst. te on the day in question because the matron of the jail refused to give her more mor- phine than was directed to be given by the prison physician. She aiso complains that food was refused her. As a result of the alleged treatment. it is charged, she attempted. to hang herself, being prevented by two female priseners. Attorney Mitchell says that when he called at the jail with Dr. Chas. M. Em- mons for the purpose of examining into the mental condition of the woman they were insulted by Warten Leonard, and that. Dr. Emmons was not allowed to make the e mination, save in the presence of Dr Shute, the jail physician. The charges have not been made publie and will be re- ferred to Warden Leonard together with the accomparying affidavi Warden Leonard denies any wrongdoing on the part of himself or his officers, and claims that what was done was simply in pursuance of the rules and regulations gov erning the jail, as approved by the Dis- trict Supreme Court. The wom: who was acquitted because of her impaired mental condition, will be committed to Saint’ Elizabeth's Insane Asylum in a few days for treatment. >. ALEXANDRIA AFFAIRS.
