FOR BURGLARY.
Ed Kinney, Alias Frank McCarty
Now on Trial.

In Judge Hinkson's court yesterday
the trial Of Ed. Kinney. otherwise
known as Frank McCarty, charged with
burglary, was commenced. District At
torney Ryan appeared for the people
and s. Luke Howe for the prisoner.
The crime for which Kinney is being
tried was the robbery Of Franklin
Browns residence at Seventeenth and N
streets, a few months ago In company
with one E. B. Thompson, alias Charles
Rrannan. The latter was met by
Browns brother-in-law, Percy Mccoy,

with clothing in his possession that was
stolen from the house. In fact he was
wearing some of them.
Thompson Cor Brannan) cannot be
tried for some time yet, as his jaw that
was broken by the bullet from Mccoy g
pistol has not yet healed sufficiently to
permit him to appear in court.
Kinney's defense is insanity, and his
&C unset will endeavor to show that he
was once an inmate of a New York asy-
lum. In the courtroom Kinney does not
consult with his attorney, and does not
manifest any interest in the proceed
ings. He wears an expression OF su-
preme simplicity, and gazes most OF the
time at the ceiling. The case will he

Dor, from whom the men had also
stolen a harness, followed with a shot

suit was magical, for the men threw

IS4o he entered Columbia College, now
Columbian University and graduated
in 1874. He studied law and was ad

Columbia in I847. In 1861, at the
breaking out OF the rebellion Mr.. Webt
was elected Captain of a volunteer
company and offered the services OF
himself and his company to the Gov
ernment, but there being no organiza
tion of troops, at the time to which
his copmany could be assigned, his offer

full force and is recognized as the best
system possible for the comfort and
welfare of the District, while Mr..
Webb held the Office of Superinten-
dent, slavery existed in the District of
Columbia, and one of it's laws made all
colored men subject to arrest, found in
the streets or highways after night, un-
less protected by permit from some
white man which authorized him TO be
at large. For the convenience of the
colored men Mr.. Webb established a
system of registered passes, which
were issued TO colored men, giving
them the privilege of being at large for
period mentioned therein, and reissued
them from time to time. Some of our
