The WARRANT REs!srER DEAD-John
Mckenna, the man who resisted arrest
when officer Miles demanded hi. quiet sur
render. died yesterday morning from the
effects Of the wound he received from the
policeman. When Miles called on him, on
Rousseau stree.. and informed him that he
had warrant for his arrest Mckenna pre-
tended that he would submit, and took a
drink of liquor. He then left the officer
and walked across the street, when it be-
came evident that he had been indulging in
too much whisky. Miles followed and
reached him just as he WAS about 20 escape
through back door. when the officer
placed a hand on him. McKenaa took hold
Of something and held tightly.
The officer of course pursued his duty,
and made his effort to perform what he was
sent to :lc, and in proper manner. but
Mckenna continued to resist, and when the
two We're clnched McKenna drew his knife
and Gu. Miles three times. Miles then be-
gan to think tina. unless he did something
for himself he would be worsted. He fred
his pistol is self defense, but unfortunately
the buiIe: struck in vital spot. No one,
SO far as we have heard, bhames the officer,
nor can blame fall on him justly. which a
ludicia. investigation will doubtless prove.

dencc OF Guilt.
WASHINGTON, March 81, 1873.
young colOred man named Harry Young, alias
Charles Williams, was arrested early this morning
In Alexandria, Va, charged with the murder OF
Frank Hahn. the Virginia drover, on last Friday
night. He was brought to Washington and i'm
prsoned at Police Headquarters. The proof
against him is considered conclusive, witness
before the C0roner's jury this morning swearing to
his identity and as to having seen him short time
previous to the murder talking to the deceased and
informing him that the nearest way to the Alex
andria depot was through the Army square, where
the dead body OF the deceased was subsequently
On an inspection OF the prisoners boot it was
found that the strips Of lining which had been cut
or corresponded with the leather used in the
preparation Of the slungshot with which Hahn was
The prisoner about half-past twelve P. M. on Sat-
urday called at tavern on the Virginia side OF the
to the proprietor OF the tavern draft on Balti-
tlmore bank for $500 IL, asking the proprietor
whether the banks in Alexandra would pay the
money Tor 1t and at what time the banks were
open. on his questions being answered he called
for more whlskey and then took the road to Alex
andria five miles distant. This iact was communi-
on Saturday, and Detective McDevitt went to Bal
tim0re and ascertained that Hahn had deposited
exactly that amount In the Baltimore Bank on Fri
day, and had received from the bank check.
The detectives worked all day Saturday and sun
day without intermissiOn, being determined to &C.
complish their object, ana last night arrested the
the negro knew Of Hahn's business and suspected
he had on his person large sum Of money, and
that Hahn was intoxicated on the night OF the
murder. The negro is OF medium size, twenty-five
years old, and exhibits considerable fear Of the
consequences OF the crime. The officers have re-
Trained from removing him from his cell for the
intense excitement which prevails and the threats
OF summary vengeance on the prisoner.

asked to be allowed to take them out and charge
to keep them; when the change took place they
were taken out; they were charged from day to
day AS cash In che drawer; he did not know for
what services those sums were paid.
Mr.. J. Rubino was the next witness called he
said he was member OF the hrm ol f. w. Bieder-
mann Co.. agents in Jhis city Tor Bschofisheim !;
his testimony was OF no material importance save
as puff ior his firm and their correspondents and
as containing the statement that BschOffsheim
Co were the largest holders OF Erie stock at pres
ent; he did not know how much tney held at the
time or the change in the Erie directors.
The statement or this witness was regarded az
rather peculiar owing to The TACT that 1t had pre-
viousy appeared that Bischofsheim's firm held
comparatively very little Erie stock.
