The Anarchists resumed the wearing of tholr rod boutonloroa this morning, with the exception of Spies, who discarded the ono proffered him by a female sympathizer. Tho defendants, Spies, Schwab, Fielden and Fischer, had colorless faces, showing the evident effeot of tho trial.

The young boinb maker Lynng is tho only one of tho clustor on trial who appears to carry himsolf In an unconcerned manner. Tho court room wa3 crowded as usual. John Doogau, a brother of the murdered officer, Matthias J. Deegan, was callod and testlfiod to seeing tho dead body of his brother at tho morguo on the morning of May 5. Offlcor BurnB testified to aiding In lifting Officer Doogan's body Into tho patrol wagon soon after the explosion of tho bomb, and testified to the fact of his death.

Congressman Felix Campbell will mako an effort to secure the passage of the Senato bill appropriating for the continuation of a Federal public building in Brooklyn on next Monday. That day being the first Monday in the month, Is sot aside for the passage of raeasuros under suspension of the rules. Mr. Campbell Is also confidout that a majority of the House is in favor of the bill, but it is a matter of some conjecture to whether a two thirds voto can be soourod for the measure. So far tho bill has boon well managed by the Brooklyn delegation.

Thoy have succeeded In keeping it on tho table and preventing its reference to tho Houso Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds, Which Is known to be antagonistic to tho measure. Arrangements have been made whereby the bill can bo called up on Monday and placed on its passage, provided tho nocessary two thirds vote can be secured. The ontlre New York delegation will vote as a unite for tho measure, and among others. Messrs. Carlisle, Morrison, Randall and Holman have signified their Intention of supporting the project.

To day the Brooklyn delegation aro making qulot but thorough canvass of the House and are in hopes of success. Tho course of the Public Buildings and Grounds Committee Is being freely criticised. In tho State of Texas money has been appropriated for five Federal buildings, but the committee doos not see tho necessity of wanting money for a building In a city whoso ealth Is nearly equal to that of the entire Lone Star Stato. Anothor fact against wlifcli the Brooklyn delegation havo contondod la that thero is not a single Now York man a member of the Public Buildings and Grounds Commlttoo. Upon tho com mltee there are six Southern men, four Western, two Eastern and ono member from Middle States, a Mr.

Brown, of Pennsylvania. Tho Stale of New York lias not a representative upon this important commlttoo, but tho Brooklyn delegation has made a gallant fight against the great odds nevertheless. Thoy are notifying all their friends to bo present on the floor on Monday for tho decisive contest IN THE STORM. Seven Persons Drowned at Sandy Hook.

A Case Which has Stirred up East New York The Rope with Which the Girl Tra Med Tatinsr Testimony. The usually quiet oltizens of New Lots were ln a stato of bustle and excitement this morning over the fact that the examination In the case of tho People vs. Robert and Eliza Melville, who wore harged with cruelly treating their twelve year old niece, was to bo heard by Justice Schielleln.

Long before the hour sot for the hearing the court room and tho sidewalk in front of it were crowded. Many who woro unable to get Into the court room stood on the window Bills outBlde and looked in through tho open windows. Officer McComb conduoted Annie into court, the pale, emaciated face of tho girl calling forth the sympathies of the orowd. At tho request of ABalat ant District Attorney Maguire, Justice Schielleln consented to try tho case In tbe large hall In the assembly rooms opposite. Whan the spectators heard this they hurried across the street, and it was not long before the large hall was filled.

Justice Sohtelloin then called the case and Assistant District Attorney Maguire began for the prosecution. Mrs. George E. Jewell was the first witness. In answer to questions put by Assistant District Attorney Magulro, Mrs.

Jewell said: I live on Dean stroet; I know defendants; I live ln the upper part of their homo; I have lived there two months; I saw the little girl when I lived thore a month; I saw her In a corner in the baok basement sitting on stool; Mrs. Melville was present; she told mo tho child was mlsohlevous; I know sho wastlod; sho handed tbe girl a key to unfasten lock which hold a ropa around her body, tho rope being fastened to a staple in the fioor; tha girl stooped to her right side and unlocked herself; the girl did not got up from tho benoh; I never saw the girl afterword; lira. Melville said she had tho girl fastened thore for nearly two years. Tho cross examination by Counselor W. J.

Gay nor did not shake the witnesses' testimony. E. F. Smith' was the next witness. He said I have known tho defendants throo months.

I neyer saw the little girl; 1 havo worked in tha house; Mrs. Melville said she had a girl thero; sho had a list of wrongs perpetrated by the girl written on piece of paper; she told mo that the girl was locked up ln a small room. Cross examlnod I did this work threo months ago; I was not thero every day. Mrs. Elizabeth Stackhouse, Bworn, said: I live in the next house to the Melvllles Mrs.

Melville showed me the child two years ago, whon she brought It from Albany; I havo not Been tho child since last November; she was strong and healthy looking. Cross examined I saw the child on the street several times. James G. McComb, of the S. P.

(The ropo, five Inches in circumference, was bore produced in evidence amid orlos of "Oh, Oh," fromaho audience.) I found ropes down stairs aud up stairs fastened to Btaples In the floor.

Her skin was very white and pasty. Hor pulse waa weak. She seemed dazed and was afraid to look up. Tho rope was then around her waist 1 held tho flesh back so that tho officer could cut the rope. Whon the ropo was half cut It forced ltsolt apart The offoct on the child's mind would havo beon such, If this treatment had beon continued, as to make her an imbecile.

This endod the caso for the People. CouiiBoler Gaynor said that as His Honor had no Jurisdiction in tho caso further than to hold the do fendeuta for ttio Grand Jury he would rest hla caso whero tho People loft It. He desired to call attention to tho fact, however, that no evidence had boon produced against Robert Melville, and that the old law, that held a hnsband responsible for his wife's acta, waa no longor In existence. Justice Scheillelu held tho accused for the Grand Jury and the prisoners wore taken to Raymond street Jail. Tho girl was loft in tho custody of Officer McComb.

Ho sued Mrs. Stewart, tho widow of A. T. Stewart, for damages, and recovered a verdict of $15,220.88 in tho Supreme Court This verdict has Just beon affirmed by the Gonoral Torm. Tho caso is noteworthy, from the fact that It has been In litigation for so long a time.

It has boon to tho Court of Appeals, aud has been tried and retried. Judge Dykman writes an opinion in which ho says: ThiB cause has encountered tho vicissitudos usually Incident to tort cases, but the Court of Appeals decided that tho questions Involved aro questions of fact, proper for tho Jury, and tho eauso has now been tried in obodionco to that decision, and a verdict has boon awarded to the plaintiff. It Is claimed by the defendant that tho verdict is excessive in amount, and we are requested to interfere and sol it osldo for that reason, and while it ia large ln amount, yet it is not outragoous; neither is it so excessive as to Justify an inference that the Jury was influenced by improper motives. There is nothing In the case to Justify even a suspicion of tho presenco of prejudice, partiality, or corruption. And under such circumstances tho appellato courts interfere with verdicts with great reluctance.

Tho verdict seems to bo tho result of fair consideration and fair deliberation, aud wo disoovor no causo to Justify our interference by reason of its amount alono. Tho Judgment and ordor douyiug tho motion for a new trial, should bo afilrmed with costs. TO HANDLE REPUBLICAN MONEY. A Finance Committee Which Includes Many Prominent IVanic.

Tho ex 8ur3iontat3siarimt6A.lt. Throwing Light on the Pfister Mystery.

DIscoTered on the Roof of a Shanty Close by tho Scene of tho Tragedy Indications that the Boy was Beaton with the Weapon. The theory that young Frederick Pfister, whose lifeless body was found last Monday morning ln a swill wagon In Waterbury street, between Meserolo and Scholes streets, recelvod his death wound at tho hands of an unknown assassin, and not, as the police suppose, in tho Graham avenue saloon ln a struggle with his elder brother, John, if rapidly being confirmed. At 1 :20 o'clock this afternoon on Eagle reporter visited tho locality wboro tho boy's body was found and again examined the powder marks on the side of tho woodon shanty which stands less than twenty feet from the wagon. It ia the supposition of those residents of that section of the city who are not disposed to accept the pollco theory of the homicide that young Pfister was assaulted near this Bbanty, probably shot at and then, the shot missing him, was struck and fatally Injured or perhaps Instantly killed with the handle of tho revolver, after whieh his body was flung into the wagon. Tho roporter this afternoon noticed that tho rain bad partially obliterated tho powdor marks on the wall, but the mark like to that of a bullot hole was still thero.

Tnen George Frank, a small boy, who lives ot 351 Meserole street, and who last Tuesday found tho small shot on the ground closo to the.wall appears again upon tho scono. At tho suggestion of the reporter the boy climbed to the roof ot the shanty to see what he could find. Just as he noared the center of tho roof he paused, stooped and then shouted I've got it Tho email boy had beaten all the professional dotectlve talent of tho city, and had discovered that which will probably put a sudden end to the police theory of the homicide. Ills find was that of a rusty 22 calobor seven shootor of tho stylo known as tho "Ranger." Only one'barrel had been discharged. On the stock of the revolver, midway between tho butt and the trigger, were a fow threads of light brown hair.

The rust on the revolver was of rocont formation. The initial was scratched with a knifo on the side of tbe stock. Fred Pflstor's hair was about the Bhade of the hair found on tho revolver. If that hair was hla he was probably assaulted on tho rural Waterbury street road by moro than ono man. One of his assailants probably had a revolver loaded with small shot, and In the struggle discharged It at him, but mlssod him.

This accounts for the powdor marks said to havo beon observed on the dead boy's faco and the shot marks in the shanty wall. Then the assailant with tho seven shooter also fired and be too missed his mark and then boat the boy over the head with the butt of tho revolver. The fact that a revolver was fouad so slrengtlions this theory that the police will probably conclude to adopt It and will then determine that some ono o)so than tho murdered boy's brother Is tho porson rcspouslblo for the crime. Ex Commisslouer Andrew Zelser, of Bushwlck and Montro.io nvonuos, says that a few nights ago a boy and girl passed his house aud that ho board tho boy say, "We didn't mean to kill him, wo only meant to lick him." Mr. Zelser can give no description of the boy.

Editor Cutting at El Paso Del Norte. likely to ReeelTC a Long Sentence from the Mexican Tribunal The Texans Arming to Cross the Rio Grande Fr Cisco Arresnres' Illegal Arrest Got ernor Ireland Demands Atonement for His Death. Denver, July 51.

A dispatch from El Taao, dated last evening, gays: "The trial of Cutting Is now In progress at Paso del Norto. It consists merely of a Joint examination by the prosecuting attorney and a Judge of the papers In tho case. It Is expected that a decision will bo rendered to night, as the throe days allotted for the trial expires to morrow. It Beoms that tho length of a trial Is determined before the trial begins. It is the expectation among lawyers that Cutting will bo sentenced to two or three yoars' imprisonment, and taSen at onco to tho penitentiary at Chihuahua.

Modlna is also having his trial this ovoning for raising a rumpuB a few nights ago. Cutting's case has brought out tho hitherto unknown fact that tho doctrine of State's rights is carried to tho extreme limit in Mexico and that tho authorities at Chihuahua will brook no interference from the Federal Administration, or even from Prestdont Diaz personally. They will not even llston to friendly suggestions. As matters now stand Cutting will certainly be sentenced to a long torm of Imprisonment and carried to Chihuahua to serve out tho term." CHIC'ACIO, July 31. A special dispatch from Dallns, says: 'The feeling of friendliness whioh had begun to exist In Texas toward Mexico has been reversed by the Cutting and other outrages recently brought to light to one of intense every body's voice for war.

Tho young men of this and other Texas cities aro quietly enrolling themselves for military service If need bo, and a similar movomont, though to a less extent la going on throughout tho State. Tho State adjutant goueral is daily receiving applications for permission to ralso volunteer companies, and Captain Sicfcor, of the adjutant gen oralBstaff, states that if required ho can have 10,000 men in motion within thirty days. Tho warlike fooling is lritonsifled by the recital of Amorican citizens of outrages experienced In Mexico over which they heretofore were silent, at tho Instance of omployors, who feared the offset of exposure upon their busl lioss in Mexico. In addition to tho case of R. II Plemlng, of this city, who was cast into a dungeon without cause, Mr.

Seth Gago, a civil engineer, has reported that while in the employ of the International Kailroad, near Satillo, ho forced a lock in the house he had rented, on the strength of which he was arrestod on tho charee of burglary, at tho Instance of tho local Alcalde, and cast into a loathsome dungoon. He was admitted to bail tho following day, with the proviso that ho should, like a ticket of leave man, report at tho Alcalde's offlco morning and evening till his trial came off. He so reported for ten days, each day suffering indlgni tlos, after which ho was released without the form of a trial. Mr. Gage is now tho secretary of tho Presidio Live Stock Association, and is a very prominent citizen.

In the event of Cutting being sent to a Moxican penitentiary it will bo difficult to restrain tho poo ple of Texas from an Irregular invasion of Mexico. Galveston, July 31. A special to the Xewa from Austin says: Govornor Ireland having been advised of tho surrendor and execution of Francisco Arrosures, telographed to Mr. E. D.

Linn, tho American Consul, at Pledras Nogras, for particulars and has received the following response Ju)y Jg86 Your telegram Just received. Francisco Arresurea was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Diaz at i aglo I'ass, by order of Sheriff Oglesby, on the night of the S6th lnBt Ho was handcuffed and In fifteen minutes waB delivered to Mexican offloorB across tho liio Grande River. Sheriff Oglesby claimed that ho nctod on a warrant of County Judge Hoffstetter, who says that Sheriff Oglesby porauaded Him to sign the order for Arresures' arrest and de livery. Thero were no papers for his arrest from Mexico, excopt a lotter from Mondragon, Captain oi the State Hangers in Coahulla, who made a goneral charge of horse stealing agaiuBt Arrosures. A protest against being delivered to the Mexican officers was etrongly made by Arresures, who insisted that he would be killed by Mondragon, his personal enemy.

He appealed to me for protection on tho morniug of July 27, and I at onco demanded his roturu to Texas, on the ground of his being kidnapped, and also had Oglesby to demand the prisoner return on the same grounds. Both demands were refused by Mondragon. At 1 o'clock at night Arresures was taken from Jail and brutally murdored by three of Mondragou's troops. In 18T3 Arresures made declaration of citizenship in Maverick County. He lived with his family In Emtio Pass at the time of his arreBt, and he was an omnibus driver.

The best citizens in Kaglo l'aos and Pledras Negras testify to his good character. Sheriff Ogloeby says he had a private understanding with Mondragon, by which an escaped murdorer from Texas, for whom a large reward had been offered, was to bo delivered to Oglesby in exchange for ArroBuros. Public Indignation is very great on both sides of the river over this affair. Signed E. D.

E. D. Linn, American Consul at Piedras Negras. This man, Francisco Arrosures, has been most foully murdered by the Mexican authorities, and 1 Is but a repetition of the insults and outrages committed upon Amorican citizens by tho peoplo and the authorities on tho right bank of tho Rio Grande. While no possible excuse can bo given for the part taken by the Texas officers In tho illegal arrest and dolivery to the Mexican authorities, still nothing In palliation for the foul murder has or can bo offered by tho Moxican authorities.

The persons, whoovor they aro, who wore engaged in tho Illegal arrest, will bo prosecuted, and I demand, in tho name of tho State and Its pooplo, that this wrong by Mexico bo atoned for and punished.
