TAKEN T0 THE STATION Legal Complications Likely to Arise Over the Arrest. > REFUSES TO TALK Pearl Maltby,the nineteen-year-old daugh- ter of Thomas O. Maltby of No. 908 L who ran away from home 7, and whose disappearance led to many sensational publivations In the papers throughout the country, spent last night at the first precinct station house in charge of Matron McLeod. Ever since she left home her father has exerted every effort to discover her whereabouts, and to this end ke placed a watch upon the movements of Thomas 0. Anderson, a married man, who resides with his wife at No. 204 G street northwest, and who is the proprietor of a club house near Fort Myer. Anderson, It is said, was a constant visitor of Miss Maltby and her parents believed he knew what had become of her. Anderson was taken before Inspector Hollinberger last Monday, but denied all knowledge of where the girl or that she had left home. He was ed, but Mr. Maltby was still convinced that the man had made a false statement. Captured the Girl. This contidence was rewarded last night about 10 o'clock, when in company with a Virginia constable he met his daughter in company with Anderson on the road at the Virginia end of the Aqueduct bridge. They were walking toward the bridge and the girl was leading her bicycle. * Mr. Maltby drew out a nickel-plated monkey wrench and leveled It at Anderson, who thought it was a pistol and offered no resistance tc the father and the constable taking charge of the girl. The latter was badly frightened and almost fainted. Maltby and the constabie started across the bridge with the girl and Anderson followed. It is said Mr. Maltby asked two young men to stop Anderson and that they did so, and while they were holding him, 't is elleged by Anderson, that a man named Reynolds, who keeps a store in Rosslyn, came up and struck him with a pair of brass knuckies, making a bad wound in his cheek. Meantime Mr. Maltby and his daughter had gotten within the District jurisdiction, where Officer Passnau of the seventh precinct was in waiting. He tock charge of Miss Maltby and took her to the station house in Georgetown, where her father preferred a charge against her ef fugitive from her parents, afier she had vehemently declined to go home with him. There being no matron at the seventh pre- cinct, the girl was taken to the first pre- cinct station, where she passed the mht. Refused to Talk. A Siar reporter saw ler there this morn- ing.

The epinion was universally expressed that Po- Neeman Pasnau had no right to arre: the girl, and that her age, nineteen years, which was admitted by her parents, made her detention on the charge of being a fugitive from her parents unwarranted. Prosecuting Attorney Mullowney said it would be impossible to hold the girl on any such charge. Attorney Donaldson, who was retain by Anderson to defend the girl, saw ector Hollinberger and requested Pearl's release, stating that the charge upon which she was held was admitted by all autho ties to be lilegal. Inspector Hollinberger told Mr. Donaldson that he would not re- lease her, but would hold her, if it were necessary, on another charge. It leaked out afterward that if the inspector was required to take additional measures. in order to hold the prisoner that he would have the charge of profanity placed against her, it being allewed that Officer Pasnau heard her curse when being taken to the station. It was also said that a more seri- ous charge might also be placed against her. Mr. Maltby, the father of Pearl, saw Dis- trict Attorney Davis this morning, and the district attorney told him, it is understood, that the charge against his daug! not good, as she was ninewen years old. After a further consultation, however, Mr. Davis sent Mr. Maltby to the detective office with a message, which rather vague. It was to the effect that Mr. Davis wanted to see the Heutenant “and the young man who gave the information” at the’ inspector's offlee at 2 o'clock. Inspector Hollinberger, accompanied by Lieut. Amiss and Mr. Arthur Kemp, sten- ographer to Maj. Moore, left headquarters at 11 o'clock. It was understood that they were out on the Maltby c Anderson was in consultation early this morning with Attorney Donaldson. He bore marks on his face of the blow given him last night. He reiterated his assertion that his relations had been friendly with the xirl and nothing more, and that he had nothing to do with her leaving home. Attorney Donaldson stated that he in- tended applying for a writ of habeas corpus this afternoon, even if he had to ask for it under the pauper’s act. Inspector Hollinberger Talks.

I am trying to protect this girl. It is a shame that there is not some law providing pun- ishment for abduction In the District of Columbia. If there was it would be an easy matter to give this man Anderson his Just desserts. The girl is infatuated with him. Her parents are unable to restrain her. I am holding her by request of her father to further Investigate the case, and if there Is any possible chance to reach An- derson it w advantage of. This case is going to be probed to the very bot- tom by direction of Col. Wm. Moore. It is only one of numerous instances of the same sort that comes continually to the attention of the police, and there must be some radical change in the laws governing this sort of business. Miss Malthy will be until a compwie investis fs Inspector Hollinberger was very earnest in his manner and took no pains to conceal his indignation over Andezson’s connection with the case. Mr. Maltby had a long consultation with Inspector Hollinberger this afternoon. At its conclusion the father told a Star ri porter that there was nothing more to say. His daughter was being held, and what the outcome would be, or whether more arrests would follow, he could not tell. Z > ASSEMBLY NOT INCLUDED. Resolutions Concerning Those in Authority in Knights of Labor. At the meeting last evening of District Assembly No. 66, Knights of Labor, much time w: cted to the consideration of the resolutions adopted at the last session of the Central Labor Union, which charged that “those in authority’ in the order haa given information to the coal mine owners which had «nabled them to prepare for the strike by largely increasing the reserve supply of coal. A number of the delegates rreeting advised that D. A. 66 should make an official denial of the statements made by the Central Labor Union, and which were indorsed by the Building Trades Coun- cil, but the prevailing sentiment was that the statement was untrue, and so ridiculous saat a denial was not necessary. ‘The charge referred to has been discus: in labor circles for several days, and opin- fons nave been freely expressed by both factions of local labor. Today, when ques- tioned relative to the matter, 2 delegate to the Central Labor Union sa!d that he Was confident the statement was corre “I was present at the last mceting of the Central Labor Union,” he si those resolutions were adopted. gate who submitted them stated that h- would be responsible for the statement. He also said that the charge did not ap- ply to D. A. 6%, but, as stated, to ‘tho: in authority at headquarters The member who submitted the resolu- tions to the Central Labor Union declares present at the The del that D. A. 66 was not included in the charge. ‘That body,” he said, ‘is no more respon- sible for the action of those im national uthority in the Knights of Labor than 1s the Central Labor Union. It is ‘simply a local body, and is not supposed to have any definite, positive knowledge of what the national officials do. Under these conditions an official denial of wnat is alleged to have been done by ‘these in authority’ would be far more ridiculcus than, as they assert, were the charges mede by the Central Labor Union." > One Fined, the Others Acquitted. Jane Mallory, Henry Mallory and Lucy Fox, the colored people who were arrested in Blagden’s alley during the fight Monday morning, were tried In the Police Court this afternoon.

July 16, 1897. An sful attempt was made this morning to launch the’ new. police boat for the District of Columbia. It’ was announced that she would be launched on high tide, and quite a number of people had assem- bled to sce the little raft slide mto the water. All in readiness shortly after 9 o'clock, and Architect McDermott held in his hand # copy of The Evening Star, from which he had read the offictal time of high tide, which proved ‘to be 9:2 o'clock. Promptly to the minute, word was given to “let her go,” and she -began,to slide niéely. She hid gone but a few feet, however, when one of the forward: guy ropes got hung. The stern kept going and she got somewhat twisted on the ways and stopped. For more than an hour they worked on he and moved her by inches until it was seen that the tide had dropped to such an ex- tent that she would not float ff off the ways. They kept the boat moving, and it is thought she will float at high tide to- night. ‘There was no form or ceremony attend- ing the launching. Harbormaster Sutton, with several of his men, came down to witness the event. The Iittle boat is said to be one of the firest of her kind ever built in this section.

TENEYCK WINS FINAL First American to Capture the Dia- mond Sculls Race. BLACKSTAFFE BEATS = M'DOWELL Chicago Oarsman Made Record Time, Though He Lost. FINE WEATHER — PREVAILS HENLEY, England, July 16.—The third day of the Henley regatta was favored with beautiful weather. Light breezes gen- erally up the course were blowing from the Bucks shore. In consequence of the death of Lord Camoys, late president of this year's re- gatta committee, many flags are floating at halfmast. In the semi-finals for the Diainond Sculls, Dr. W. S. McDowell, Delaware Boat Club of Chicago, was defeated by H. T. Black- aff, Vesta Rowing Club, while E. H. Ten Eyck, Wachusett Boat Club, Worcester, Mu won his heat with B. H. Howell, an American, studying at Trinity College, Cambridge. The finals will be rowed be- tween Ten Eyck and Blackstaffe. McDowell and Blackstaffe started off to- gether and in fine style. At the top of the island McDowell was leading by a quarter of a length, rowing a 38 stroke to the min- ule as against Blackstaffe’s 40. This lead he maintained until they had passed the quarter-mile stake,when Blackstaffe forged forward and pushed the nose of his boat to the front. Blackstaffe Takes the Lead. At the rectory Blackstaffe led by half a length. At the half-mile stake, which the former reached In 2m. and M4s., the Chica- goan appeared done up. A little lai Blackstaffe collided with the piles and Me- Dowell gained some, but it did no good. In his excitement ne caught a crab. At the three-quarter distance stake boat Black- staffe was a length ahead and rowing rastiy. He kept this lead without much effort, as McDowell did not seem to have ary “go” left.

The event of the regatta was the race between New and Leander. It was nightly exelting, ind the spectators everywhere showed the most inte - interest. At the finish the two boats were so close that the result was not known by the spe tutors until the judze announced that Leander had won. ‘The time was six mi utes and fifty-one seconds Leander led from the start to the end of Temple rowing a 42 stroke us against New’s 38. At the quarter stake Leander was f a length ahead, and from t of spurt Leander, however, was three-quarters of a length ‘ahead at the Isthmian Lawn. ‘Then the New College crew began a strug- gie such as has been seidom paralleled at Henley.

The crowd then gathered wood, and, building a fire over him, wate! ed the ghastly scene until Williams’ body was only ashes. > For two days and nights 500 men armed and determined have scoured the country for miles. Several times posses were with- in shooting distance of Williams, but he escaped. He was captured within sixteen miles of West Point. A man named Clark, to whom he applied for tobacco, held him for the crowd. Williams was first traced to Iron City, where he traded the young lady's belt to a colored woman for a night's lodging. He was later seen at Pruitton, and several shots were fired. All trace of him was lost until this afternoon, when searchers came upon him three miles south of Pruitton. He had been in the woods without food over two days and running most of the time, so that he was exhausted. The crowd quickly took him back to the scene of his crime, tied him to the same tree to which he had tied his victim and there gave him a torturing death. The mob was composed of substantial men. Williams’ victim was shortly to have been married to a young man in Nash- ville. Her intended husband came down from Nashville today and was at West Point to meet the crowd of avengers and assist them. ‘The young lady left her home early Tuesday morning to pick berries. When she did not return for dinner her friends went in search of her. She was found dead and tied to a sapling with a leather strap around her neck. One of her eyes hed been gouged out and in her tightly clutched hards were leaves and grass. Ail around the ground showed that a terrible struggle had taken place. When Williams was captured his face and arms were ter- ribly scratched and torn. “Want” ads. in The Star pay because they bring answers. 1 FINANCIAL, FINANCIAL.
