A. H. Campbell is agent for tho Mutual Life Insurance of N. Y. 8-15tf tion, and whilo on the way I met a po liceman and asked him where tho police station was.

He replied, "I 11 show you: I guess you're the man I'm looking for," and further informing me that he had my two friends locked up. When I asked what for, he said: "For being suspicious characters." After wo were locked up. they served warrants upon all three of us, charging us with "taking, stealing and carrying away, from the person of Ixittie May, the sum of $210," charging me, in addition, with carrying concealed deadly weapons, i have been released on bail and expect tho others to )e re leased in a few days. r.x-Judgo Richardson and Mr. Samuel Page, two of the ino.st prominent law yers in Virginia, have been engaged to defend us.

After Mr. Still mide tho statement that ho and Mr. Coniey consulted with the District Attorney in regard to making information fltrainst Lottie May, District Attorney lientzel was visitod to corroborate these statements. Mr. Bent.el said, while he did not order the information to bo he informed Officers Coniey and Still that it was eminently proper for either of them to make Information against this woman or any other jwtrson that they hail any knowledge of (sung engaged in the business of enticing younsj girls away from the city for immoral purposes, and that the moral sentiment of he town demand- such action on tr 'part of the officers the law.

After this interview with the DUtriet Attorney, the officer at oncw made Information against tbe woman before Alderman Sti THR IIEARIJfCi. At the bearing on Saturday, says the Richmond Dispatch, Lottie who is fine looking woman with large blue eyes and fair hair, was tho lirst to take the stand. Beforo she beiran to toufv her 'attorney, Mr. ii. M.

Smith, stated that owing to an error of bis own, the Bum denignatcd in the warrant should have been 42oO instead of 250. Lottie. stated that Still came to her house with tho others on Tuesday morning, huttbut Whito made an explanation of the mis sion of the, Pennsylvanlans, which was, she said, in reference to tho departure of two girls from ork. JLottio and tho man White went Into tho hall, according to her statement, and he asked her If she could not raise about $5tX) or in dicating to her mat he could fix tho matter up with Still aud Coniey so that she would not be taken away. Lottie then wrote a note to a friend asking for fUWKl, But," she continued, "the men did not want me to state in the note what, I wished the money for.

I was kept waiting with them about twenty minutes when my friend came with only $21. I gave it Ut Still, aud ho said that it would not do, that he would have to have the full amount. I became frightened and said 1 would go to a friend endeavor to get the remainder. Still followed mti up town, and whttn we saw my friend and he went away to hj a lawyer tho man Still left me. White told mo in Still's presence if I would give Still the fboo he would go back to York and tell the authorities that there was no such woman as Ijottio May hero.

Still told me that his friend was going to the Gov ernor to get the papers signed unless I javo him the On eross-exarnination, Lottie said her name was Sal.io Whiteside; that she had never lived in York, but had been there. She was known in this city as Iltle May. She was then hen he was in York, but her counsel advised her not to answer any more questions having a tendency to criminate her. In regard to getting ball when the oftleers got to York with the woman, she said White told her ho would go her security, but that his property was all in his wife's name. She denied that, ehe gave the money saying: "If you don't believe I will come Imck, take this." Lvttio said that when her friend asked tbe man (Still fn her presence to let him see the pupers he lsum replied that his friend had thera and hud gone to soo tho Governor.

Another witness corroborated th woman's evidence in regard to what took place between her friend and Still. I'oliceman Lamkttt while en the srana said he arrewu-d Stiit at tho corner of Fifteenth and Franklin streets, and that the accused told him that he wanted protection ia this very matter and was looking for police headquarter. Mr. Iimbkiu said he told Still it was a very funny way for him to do, to come here to make an arreet and say nothing an it the matter to the Richmond jhjIIco. tbe officer continued, admitted that he ought to have conferred with the officers here, "but added that woman had consented go along without a requisition, as she desired as little publicity iu tho affair as possible.

Mr. Still went on the stand and denied that he heard the conversation which took place between Lottie and White, and said that some conversation in reference to the woman's bail when she wonhl reach York took place and that it was said she had 5tK or ik.J Id cash alcng with her in order to keep her from going to ju.il. Still asserted that ho told tho woman that he and Coniey had no ever to do any thing iu tbe matter of releasing her. He was asked why he went from from Seventh street nearly to Seventeenth in search of tho pollco headquarters, and replied that he thought the' Police Court was the place he win looking for. He reiterated his statement that she gave him the money when he was about to go out and ujmui his tellinir her he would have accompany her.

The testimony of Coniey, as far as it went corrolorated that of hi associate, and While's was also substantially the same. The secret conversation between himself and Lottie, said White, was ii; reference to the hull int? of tho woman ujain reaching York and that nothing was ftild about her being released upon payment to Still and Coniey of any amount. In plvlng his evidence White admitted having written Still that one of the girls said to have been a'slueted htd been here and was at the time ia Norfolk. He also claimed that in this letter ho stated that Lottie May wiu not in Richmond. White i a married nmn and a sister of one of the aislucb-d girls live with hii family in York.

Go to hear it tonight at Julius' music store at 8.15. a a A Trial of One of the New Electric Cars. About three o'clock yesterday afternoon quite a large number of men and women, together with the precocious small boy, gathered on Fust Market street at the Billrneycr fc Small Company's shop, to witness tho placing of th tirst electric motor car on tho street railwoy. Tho car, number 22, was pushed out the rear of the Uillmoyer Small shop and was brought to the Market street cross-ingover the truck of the Baltimore Lehigh railroad, tho motive power belncr furnished by the shop employes. At Market street a woodon frame contrivance was placed in the center of the railway tracks to run the car upon and to swing it, around to go west on Market etreet.

This improvised turntable failed to work and tho force of men from tbe shop augmented by a number of street railway employes after considerable difficulty and with the aid of jacks, crowbars nnd levers swung the heavy car ofT of the Into a position to reach the street rail way tracks. Horses were hitched to it and with the assistance of the men it was with some little difficulty finally placed on the tracks aud wus slowly worked up over the pike to tho new tracks and up Over the bill to tho square. At the same time that the electric motor was run out the double decker which was wrecked in the shed that was blown down by the cyclone, was also brought out in the samo manner, but with little trouble. During the transferring of the above cars a Baltimore lsjhigh locomotive was detained at the Market street crossing for about half an hour. Then enme the trial, but It was found that the car wouldn't go at least by electricity.

There was short circuit, by reason of which, when the current was turned into the car it caused tho switch at the power station to fly open, thus cutting olT tho current. After several ineffectual attempts the- car was taken to the street car stiblos. The proper changes were made last night, and it is said the car wilt be tri -d again this morning at eight o'clock.

The people who have- credited camp-meetings with tho peculiar power to bring rain have been greatly disappointed in that resject at Summit Grovo Evangelical camp. Dry weather, dust and heat have taken tho place of rain, and yet tho citizens of Summit Grove find there a pleasant retreat from the greater heat iu the cities of York and Baltimore. The social features of the camp also aro very agreeable.

The spirituality of tho meeting is good and already a number of conversions havo taken plaoe. Family worship yesterday morning was led by Rev. A. S. Baumgardner.

These mjetings aro well attended and give a desirable imjetus to the meetings of the day. By the way, these early general services in the tabernacle indicate a change that has taken place in tho conduct of prayer-meeungs. Tho custom used to be to have family worship in every tent. Some re-gard this change as an innovation, while others regard it as a real improvement. There is an advantage in this early association of worshippers in song and prayer.

Everybody is not up quite early enough for this service, but there are always tardy persona in all tho services of the day. The morning prayer-meeting was in charge of Rev. N. Young, who knows how to lead hi9 people near to tho throne of grace. Tho Presiding Eider, Rev.

II. W. Buck, preached tho morning sermon from Gal. 6, 7, 8, "'Be not deceived, for God Is not mocked; whatsoever a man sweth, that shall be also reap." Mr. Buck spoke very earnestly about the kind of seed that ought not to be sown.

He illustrated his thought by a reference to a young man who became a drunkard by learning to drink iti his father's cel lar. This was used also to warn parents ugai nst sowing tho seeds of drunkenness among their children by keeping wine and other Intoxicating bevcrao-es in their collars and sideboards. In speak of the gKid seed that ought to be Bown he spuko of his father, who was one of the old preachers in tho Evangelical Association, and of his godly mother. He further illustrated this thought by a reference to Dr. Free and hi wife, who took the place of father sid mother to young Buck after both i own parents luul died.

The sermon whs delivered with, much pathos and s-c a good impression. Tog children's meeting under the eadership of He v. U. F. Swengel, waa of poeHil interest.
