Mr.. poALIe WAS OVERHEARD.
The Language That Offended Jones not
Intended for His Ears,

MT. William II. Pohlig was arrested early
yesterday morning by one Of the deputy
United States marshals on the charge OF
cursing and assauiting j. Wesley Jones.
q colored letter-carrier. while in the dis
charge of his duties. This is the case re-.
ported to tho Postmaster on Thursday and
referred TO in the DIsPAToH of yesterday.
At 10 o'clock Mr.. Pohlig was carried be-
fore United States Commissioner Thomas ,.
Atkins, who set o'clock IN the afternoon
in the Marshal's Office ia the CUSTOM
house as the time and place for hearing.
At the appointed hour the case was taken
up. Mr. III. NJ. Smith, Jr., appeared Tor
Mr.. Pohlig. -District -Attorney
Bristow conducted the prosecution.
THE coMPLAIsAST's SIDE.
Jones. the letter carrier, testified that
wednesday afternoon while collecting
mail from the box at Locust alley and
Main street. Mr.. Pohlig drove up on beef
wagon and began 20 curse HIM. and then
jumped down and attempted to strike
him.
A witness by the name of German sub
stantiated Jones's statement.
Police-Sergeant Mathews said that Jones
asked him TO arrest Poblig, and told him
(AIathews) that he lJonesl had been IN
suited" The Sergeant did not think ~ a
case in which he was called upon to in-
terfere.
FOR THE DEFENCE.
Mr.. Pohlig stated that the remarks TO
which Jones excepted were made by him
to Mr.. W. II. Cavedo, who was on the
wagon with him at the time, and were not
intended to be overheard by the negro;
He did not get down from the wagon until
the man became offensive.
Mr.. Cavedo corroborated this testimony.
Commissioner Atkins stated that as
there was such n direct conflict of testl-
mony-two on each side-he would be
compelled to let jury decide the case.
He accordingly sent the accused on to the
United States Court. the next term OF
which begins on the first Monday IN April.
Bail was allowed in the sum OF sou,
with Dir. John Rhodes as surety.
PERSONAL.
Jones is an extremely black negro. be-
side whom piece of charcoal would fade
into paleness. Mr.. Pohlig seemed TO think
that the handling of mail by such person
was manifestly out of place, and 1t was
evidently the expressing of this view which
Jones overheard and excepted TO.
Mr.. Smith remarked 10 Mr.. Pohlig that
going on TO the United States grand jury
was right hard. but that he would not be
lonely, as he Smith had also to appear at
some time or other TO answer for offences
alleged to have been committed by him.

All other issues arc regarded as mere

IBy telegraph TO the Dispsich.l


NV York. March 6.-Coroner Levy IS
sued warrants this morning for the officers
and directors of the New York, New Haven
and Hartford railroad who have been held
responsible by the cOroner's jury for the
deaths of the victims of the Harlem rail-
road-tunnel disaster. These warrants were
for the following officials: Officers Charles
i. Clark, president, New Haven: i.
NJ. Reed, yice-president. New Haven /:
Lucius futile. general manager New
Haven William ID. Bishop, Jr., sec
rotary. Bridgeport; William l.; Squires,
treasurer, New Haven; III. Nj. Kock-
erspeiger, comptroller. New Haven ;
Charles T. Hampstead. general passsesee,r
agent, New Haven; Charles Rockwell,
general freight agent, New Haven. Di-
rectors: George n. Miller, New York {;
Wilson G. Hunt. New York; F. Ii. IrOw-
bridge. New Haven; William d. Bishop,
Bridgeport; Henry c. Robinson, Hart
ford; Edward NJ. Reed. New Haven :;
Charles p. Clark, of New Haven :;
Joseph Park, New York; ChauDcey III. De-
neid, Mass; William Rockefeller. New
York: Leverett Brainard, Hartford, and
Nathaniel Wheeler. Bridgeport.
From this it will be seen that the ma
iority OF the officials live outside of tho
State. Coroner Levy does not anticipate
that he will have any trouble III securing
their attendance in this city. They Will
probably come on here readily. for they
would have nothing 10 gam by resisting
the Coroner. .,
Chauncev NJ. Depew surrendered himself
to the Coroner at haif-past 4, and was I'M
mediately released on $4,000 bail.
Coroner Levy to-day issued warrants for
Chauncey NJ. Depew, George n. Miller,
Wilson G.. Hunt. Joseph Park, and William
Rockefeller. five Of the directors of the
New Haven railroad. He remained at his
office and waited the arrival of his officers
with their prisoners. Bail was fixed at
S25. 900 each. Those for whom warrants
had been issued did not wait their service,
but came on their own volition 10 the Cor
oDer's office. William Rockefeller did not
nut in an appearance, but is expected IN
the morning and will give the required
bond. Tonight the Coroner signed war
rants for the arrest of the other directors.
