ARREST OF A BLACK MAN ON SUSPI-
ClUN.-A SCENE IN A SOUTHERN
RAILWAY CAR.

On Tuesday afternoon, as the o'clock train was
On its way to Baltimore, II scene occurred not ex-
neced by the passengers. At the Annapolis juno
tun, Judge Mason of Maryland, accompanied by
Judge Legrand and other gentlemen, got in the
cars, and, ON the way, Judge Mason discovered a
colnred man whom he recognised as Il fellow who
had decoSed some nine ten slaves from their
masters. lie told the fact to the conductor, Mr..
Owen Humphreys, who overhaued his tickets and
found that the man was properly authorized to
travel on the road, bonded Tor, and had an in
lisputabie right to pass, far the rules of the
road and the law was involved lie therefore, told
Judge Mason that he had no authority to arrest
him.
The Judge remarked that justice should be done
when the conductor informed him that there was
\ police officer in the cars, who could arrest the
fugitive" a. understood. resulting in the intro
ductinn of Officer Busher TO whom the Judge made
he statement that he had made to Mr.. Humphreys
In the meantime the conductor discovered the
fugitive in the private apartment appropriated to
ladies', sitting alongside of white woman, and
ordered him nut About this time Officer Busher

anuroachcd and gently arrested the culored mai
saying, Il want you" when the arrested rni
struck the officer under the left eye, imprinting
three Of his kuuckles in Bushers face, soaring
aim badly and bringing blood. The officer VA
immediately sustained by the passengers. who On
eavorcd t. secure the prisoner, aud during the
,pcratiun gentleman named Stone had his thumb
bitten badly by the furious fellow. Great excite
mcnt ensued, some OF the passengers making for
the negro to kill him, But Conductor lIumr rhrcys
nierferrcd for the sake of the good orde! Of the
train, and so regulated matters that the officer
and others succeeded in handcufiug the fellow
and securing him in the bnggaEe car. Here he
was still rrascihle and it required much exeriion
to make him behave himself At this stage Of
matters two persons appeared and took his part
They proved to he Il Mr.. Kelly and Mr.. Robert
son, Of Philadelphia, who interested themselves
particularly for the man under arrest. Mr.. W.
A. Gudes. Of Baltimore, confronted them, and with
other assisted the officer.
On arriving in Baltimore, Oiicer Chisolm
sent for and took the prisoner to the southern dis
trict watch house, Judge Mason Icing summoned
to testify in the matter. On Questioning the black
fellow, he answered that his name Dan Tbom-
as; that be was born near Hagerstown, Marylaud
and had been for two years pdst in the employ OF
Mr.. Kelly. the gentlemen from Philadelphia, who
intcr!errcd for him The white lady who sat be-
side him in the private cars, he said, the wife
of Mr. Kelly, and he wanted Mr.. Kelly seat for to
furnish him with some money.
This was ut the landing in Baltimore and when
the conductor went to search for Mr.. Kelly, he
was among the missing, Us also was Mr.. Robinson
altogether, the case led to the suspicion that they
were all slave abductors. The hrmness and docis
ion of Captain Humphreys and the perseverance,
serious results, there being several in the car who
wanted to shoot the fellow on the spot. 1t was
probably the most exciting scene ever presented
in the cara Of the Washington branch RAILROAD.
