The Investigation of affairs in the District

House District Committee yesterday The
statement made to the Commissioners by John
j. Bogue in August 1873, to the effect that he
with other clerks worked before and aftor
office hours in drawing up complaints of ex.
cessive assessments for William Dickson, u
broker, was read. Judge Dent was called to
tho stand and denied that there was an under
standing between the Commissioners and
Troxall's counsel, that if Troxall would make
a confession of the irregular practices in the
District offices, tho Commissioners would
stand by him. Major Twining was recalled in
relation to the Bo2ue statement, and said that
after investigation he had preferred charges
against Bogue, and he was dismissed. Mr..
Columbus Alexander announced that he
would submit TO the committee writ.
ten statement of facts bearing upon the
subjects alluded to, and would be ready to be

lengthy opinion, decided that tho Constitu.
tion and statutes of Congress required that
parties should be delivered upon requsiiion
from other Jurisdictions If tho proceedings
were regular in form. Tho Court hero could
not inquire any further than to SEQ that some
crime coming under the laws Of Maryland was
duly charged. 1t was his duty, therefore, to
remand the prisoners. The Court took occa-
sion, however, to remark that tho facts OF tho
case, as developed, failod TO show any fulonious
taking by the parties and ho warned the au-
thoritios of tho State against making use of n
municipal ordinance for the purpose OF in
volvng the parties in criminal proceedings.
Mr.. irving Williamson, for the petitioners,
took an appeal to tho general torn, and tho
bond was renewed for the appearance Of the
man.
The sheriff subsequently stated that had tho
mon gone with him TO Port Tobacco IN the
outset they would havo made It us light for
them as possible but now that they wero dis.
posed to kick and fight, the authorities Of the
county would press them as hard as they could

Serious oharges Against an Attorney.

Mr.. 4. G. Riddle, as counsel for Eva Fries,
appeared before the Court in General Term
yesterday and presented The affidavit of his
client to the following effect On tho 7th of
December, 1877 she had pending before
magistrate q certain suit of one King against
her and that she applied to w. Il. Johnson, an
attorney -at-law and q member of the bar of
the District, to take the necessary steps to re-
move the case by certiorari TO the Supreme
court of the District, aud that she paid him
the sum of S11 for the necessary costs OF the
clork and marshal in said court, as she was
advised the law required, and for which she
received receipt attached to the afiidavit).
At that time she paid him $3.50 on account of
fees and 81 before, and 1t was understood that
he was to require nothing more on account Of
fees until the suit was tried. She AYERS that
the attorney, instead OF paying tho S11 to the
clerk and marshal, converted the samo TO his
own use, whereby she wholly lost 1t. After.
ward sho employed other counsel to conduct
the case, and upon application to Mr.. Johnson
to refund tho money ho refused to do so, and
consequently she complained to the court and
asked redress.
Mr. Riddle said that the docket of law cases
in the clerks Office shows that the money re-
covered by Mr. Johnson was not paid for
costs, and his partner, Mr. Pudgett, had in
| formed him that Mr.. johnson told him pad

Yesterday in tho Court in General Term
Chief-Justico Cartier delivered the opinion of
the court in tho case of Edward Perkins,
alias Edward Pettongill, alias L. Anderson,
alias Boston Pet, affirming the judgment of
tho court below. On May 8, 1879, tho de-
fendant in this cause was indicted by the
Grand Jury for the larceny ofS45, 900, Govern
ment and other bonds, from Mr.. Isaiah Hans
com (now deceased), and for receiving the
same knowing thom to have been stolen. The
two Indictments were consolidated, and the
case proceeded to trial May %, 1870, Governor
II. II. Wols, then United States District At
torucy, appearing for the Government, and
Colonel William A. Cook and A. b. Williams
for the defendant. Tho hearing resulted in a
conviction, aud Justice Hagner, who presided
at the trial. sentenced Perkins to be confined
at hard labor in the Albany ponitentiary for
three years. The case was carried to tho court
in banG upon exceptions, and was heard there
last week, tho only change being that District
Attorney Corkhill appeared for the United
States as the successor in Office of Governor
Wells. After argument the case was sub
mitted, and tho decision reserved and pro-
claimed yesterday as stated above. Perkins,
who has been In Jail for some time prior to the
finding of the indictment, will now go to the
Albany penitentnry, but receives no credit
upon his sentence for the time he has spent in
tho Jail here, as its execution was stayed until
after this hearing.
