WASHINGTON, ID. c.. June 2s.-tSpe-
cial)--The case Of Arthur y. DER, OF
Roanoke arrested here last night, on q
warrant sworn out by his brother, Oscar
ID. Derr at Lynchburg. Va, charging
him with embozzling a large sum Of
money left 20 his mother by his brother,
Rush L. Derr. as told in the Dispatch Of
this morning, excites good deal Of inte-
rest among Virginlans here. Sergeant
John y. seay, of the Bynchburg police.
IN addition 10 the warrant. was armed
with requisition papers from the Governor
OF Virginia. and DER was arrested by
two Of the District detectives in front OF
the Dumbarton House. on Pennsylvania
avenue. where he was stopping. Derr
engaged counsel, and the case came be-
fore Judge Bingham, on the requisition
papers, this evening at Q o'clock.
Judge Bingham, after hearing the case
turned Arthur y. Derr over to the Fir-
ginia authorities, on the rcduisition pro-
dueed by the police officer from Lynch
burg. Judge Yarrcll was counsel for
Derr, and two former citizens of Roa-
noke. who were intimately acquainted
with Dorr, testified In his behalf The
only testimony heard on the part OF the
State OF Virginia was that OF Sergeant
Seay, OF Lynchburg, who affirmed that
he believed the charge contained in the
warrant 10 be true. on this the Judge
based his decision. Notwithstanding hume
rous authorities to the contrary, cited
by Judge Yarrell.
II appears now that tho warrant was
issued in Lynchburg on the lst of June;
that Arthur y. Derr was arrested here
over a week ago. and refused 20 so back
10 Virginia, ignoring the charge as with
out foundation. A requisitiOn was then
obtained from the Governor, which was
claimed TO be defective, with the result
to-day as stated.
1t is also understood that one OF the
objects Of oscar DER IN having his bro
Their brought back 10 Virginia is to
serve a civil process on him. Sergeant
Seay and his prisoner LEFT for Alexandria
this evening. about ESQ o'clock, and Will
leave there for Lynchbirg over the South
ern railway on the 10 i. NJ. train.

TWO hundred census supervisors al
ready agreed upon, including those for
Virginia and North Carolina. as an
nounced in the Dispatch, VIII be appointed
BY the President this evening. The
list was taken TO him by Director Mer-
riam to-day. on the appointments being
announced the supervisors will at once
proceed TO select the enumerators and in
struct them IN their duties. 1t is esti-
mated that IT will require 1900 of these
officials 10 take the census, and the ap-
pointees must be familiar with the locali-
ties TO which they will be- assigned.

fed that the lady had said i'm their pres
ence THAI she knew Sumner had a wife
