ton to Washington, returned from the
Metropolis last night. The case was heard
before Commissioner Shields last Tues
day. The decision was adverse to the pris
oner, and this morning he arrived here II

State, and at one time judge of the Circuit
court at Albany. Detective Sutton was
called 10 testify that Boston Charley"
was not in the city at the time the bogus
telegram was sent to Judge Lindsey's
wife in Texas, and IL was hoped to show by
his testimony that MartiS had no connection
with the affair. Martis had been arrested
here by the detective and held at the First
precinct station. He was known to be
crook of prominence, but as nothing could
be found against him he was released upon
condition that he leave town at once. He
promised to do this and SAID he wanted
to go to Alexandria, where he had friends
and could getinoncy. Martis left the station
house at l o'C.ock in the afternoon, promis-
ing 10 rcturn at 4 and meet Detective Sut-
train. ---.a...
He did not come back until Z, aud 1t was
shown in the testimony and by his own
admissions that he held communication
with both Dwyer and Cunningham during
the afternoon. Although Martis claims lie
knew nothing about the telegram it is al
most certain that he was connected with the
game ana intended to impcrsonate Judge
Lindsey and receive the answer ut the

at the station-house by the detective. He
said since lie came To town he had been in
the habit of sneaking into Cunnpgham's
room at the Metropolitan Hotel and spend

proprietor. At the hearing on TIE sday he
denied this and said that he had "A room in

Mr. Cramp Says the Iowa Will Be
so Christened.

they request Gov. Drake to cause his
daughter Mary, who will christcn the
ship, to use water, instead of wine. Mr.
Cramp further said:
we furnish the bottle. and the person
invited TO DO the christening usually ac-
cepts 1t and breaks II as directed We have
frequently been petitioned by representa-
lives of temperance organizations TO use
a bottle of water instead OF Wine. but the
custom has been to use wine, and we have
discovered no good reason To change it.
As Il matter of fact, however, there is usu-
ally more disgust over the spilling of the
wine used a. the launching OF ship among
people who are not total abstaincrs than
among those who are. The former think
1t is IL useless waste of wine, when water
would answer the purpose as weli.'
