Charge of Highway Robbery.
j CDGE SMELL DECLARES WAR AGAINST THE POCKE


UDGE SMELL DECLARES WAR AGAINST THE PoCK EFT
BOOK sNATCHERs.
vicious looking young colOred man, named
Thomas Boss, was put on trial before Judge Smell
to-day for highway robbery-snatching pocket
book from the hand OF Mrs. Cornelius S. Rams
burg.
Prosecuting Attorney Moore stated to the court
that pocketboOk snatchlng is becoming ravorite
scheme with thieves here and he is going to see if
they can't be convicted Of highway robbery In such
cases as the one On trial.
Mrs. Rarnsburg was called and stated that about
O'Clock last Wednesday afternoon, while passing
along 31St street, in West Washington, on the way
10 make call on some friends, the prisoner rushed
upon her and wrenched her purse from her hand.
She was too much frightened to scream or give an
purse, leaving the handle in her hands, and es-
capped with the purse, which contained about $15
cOl0red boy named Bartholomew Mcdonald
testified to seeing Boss snatch the purse and also
to seeing the lady pursue him.
the counsel for the defendant raised the point
that there was no highway robbery shown.
Judge Smell said he would hold that there was
sufficient evidence for him to send the case to the
grand jury. He also said that these cases have
been brought under the charge Of petit larceny.
six months in Jail He said this is a most daring
and deteStable practise among thieves. and he
thought In cases like this, where there was so
much force used, the charge of highway robbery
could be maintained. The law requiring that
a person must be put In fear of
their life1s going out of vogue because courts have
held that where watch is taken by breaking the
chain 1t IS highway robbery. Judge Smell also
said that there should be a special law Furnishing
this kind OF thevery severely, and he would draft

HIS RETURN TO PHILADELPHIA
Witness arrived In Philadelphia September 24th
stopping at the Great Western Hotel: parted with
Judge Hooverin San Francisco on the nth; first
heard of Dickson's charge against him at Los Au-
gelos (this was about the 18th Of September); saw
IL in the morning paper; Mr.. Cameron was with
him; saw Hoover after this in San Francisco;
parted with Cameron at Philadelphia; saw him
next about week after at the Girard House.

and Hoover on this subject; was Notified by Mr..

The certificate OF the officers was not in pencil;
derstand that the Department of Justice asked the
statement, but made 1t for Mr.. Cameron as off,
to the department.
The Jury Excused Until Tomorrow
The court then excused the jury until to-mor-
row morning, and announced that he was ready
to hear arguments
Mr. Merrick said he did not propose to argue
the question until the first Juror was called when
he would ask the court to determine how many
challenges the defendants were entitled to- He
desired to have these motions made In order OF
precedence. The government, in fairness, had
notified the defense of the motion they
proposed to make. The defense had a motion
which they did not seem incline6 to make known
After some discussion Judge Wylie said that
counsel could not be obliged to make q motion
until the occasion for it arose. 1t was not fair
always to have questions anticipated.
MeSSrS- Davldge and Ingersoll argued that the
matter was within the discretion of the court
whether to hear the argument.
Judge Wylie finally said that In fairness he
would have the counsel stand Just as they did at
ths former trial, as though the question had never
been denied.
The courtsthen at o'clock adjourned till To-
morrow morning.

LANGTRY AND LABoUCHERE.
Mr. FOWLER, HOWEVER, EXPLAINS WHAT THE TRoU-
BILE IS ABOUT.

Mrs. Labouchere, about whose estrangement
from Mrs Langtry so much gossip has lately ap-
peared in print, arrived at the Arlington late last
night She left New York last Monday, accom-
panied by her maid, and. travelling under the pro-
lection OF Mr.. f. p Fowler OF New York. her bus-
bands solicitor, visited Fredericksburg, Va Mr.
Fowler went to Richmond to look after some
interests OF Mr.. Labouchere in Virginia, and Mrs.
Laoouchere accompanied him to Washington.
Ihis accounts for her presence here. She will

In2 10 new YORK, expects TO leave for her home In
England about the 10th or this month.
Mrs Labouchere this morning declines positively
~ De Interviewed concerning her strained rela-
treSsed and half sick over the newspaper COM
mentS and exaggerated reports, respecting herself
and her changed social relations with Mrs.
Langtry.
Mr.. FowLER's DEFENSE OF MRS. LABoUCHERE.
Mr. Fowler however, was less reticent. and ex-
pressed his opinion quite freely, concerning
communication which appeared in yesterdays
Ne5 York sun, asserting that Mrs. Langtry
cause she lost social Opportunities on
account of their friendship and int;mat1ng further
sroo MIS- hr @ mas meyer OBTAINED dlVorGe
Fowler unhes1tatingly characterized as false
hoods, the latter especially, saying that Mrs.
as the law and the church can make her. The
statement that Mrs. Langtry was embar-
RAJ socially by her friend In New York
he declares, Is ridiculOusly absurd. II there was
any embarrassment 1t was Mrs. LaboIchere and
not Mrs Langtry who suffered; ard offered this
EXPLANATION OF THE ALLEGED DIFFICULTY
between the two LADIES' In support of his assertion:
Ihere was among Mrs Langtry'S new acquaint-
ances In New York gentlemen whose attentions
to Mrs. Langtry caused considerable Cos
SIP. This gentleman's wealth and posi-
ton AFFORD him the entire to the best
society; but still he is man whom discreet
ladies' prefer to keep at distance, rather than to
encourage his visits Mrs. Labouchere objected
10 his marked attention to Mrs. Langtry. Mrs.
Langtry CURLY informed Mrs. LabOuchere that she
would receive no suggestions In such matters, and
so they agreed TO disagree-Mrs. Langtry going to
Boston to meet her engagements, and Mrs. La
6ouchere visiting Virginia and Washington.
There was no open quarrel; no rupture OF their
amicable relations Mrs. Labouchere's sister-a
Mrs. Fenton-iS still with Mrs. Langtry's COM
pany, and he thinks It altogether probable Mrs.
Labouchere will arrange her travelling plans so as
10 meet Mrs Langtry AMI Mrs. Fenton in New
York, and bid them both goodbye before sailing
for home two weeks hence.
