Wahiukoton, November ll.—TliuBcnn-
•dnl which has led to the indictment ami
trial of Police Lieutenant Arnold lias more
-at the bottom of It than hn« yet come to
the surface. Lieutenant Lelly has sworn
that Major Walker, the chief of police, did
suggest to all the lieutenants to note the
habits of all congressmen found in com
promising associations or in jjlacos of dis
repute, and report to him. This was in
order that the information so collected
might he used to influence legislation and
obtain liberal appropriations from con
gress. Arnold’s counsel arc not confident
that they-ean prove to-morrow the truth
•of Kelly’s story. But while they are con
fident of procuring evidence which should
-acquit Arnold and convict the chief of po
lice, they fear they will have a prejudiced
court to deal with, a court interested iu
clearing Major Walker by making a ncces-
Mary scapegoat of Arnold.
The court is composed of the district
•commissioners. The impression hero to-
.night is that the commissioners themselves
.-are Involved in tho scandal. It is said that
if Major Walker is not cleared they will
find it necessary to defend themselves, for
it is not doubted that the chief of police
•made the proposition to the lieutenants,
and there is a strong suspicion that tho
-original suggestions came from the district
commissioners. Circumstances give
strength to the suspicion. Tho district
commissioners have always required to
bring to bear on congress (ill tho influence
they could command in order to get appro
priations adequate to their wants. During
the coming session they will have
more need than ever of influence with
members of congress, for the bulk of their
estimates will go to congress without the
approval of the treasury department,which
hitherto they have generally had.
The commissioners are at loggerheads
with the treasury. The first comptroller
complained that the district estimates as
submitted by the commissioners were not
sufficiently detailed, aud the secretary of
the treasury demauded more information
In regard to several very largo sums of
.money asked for. The coinmisioners re-
f died that they had given all the details
hat the statutes demauded and declined
to give any more.
Jit the examination Saturday Arnold was
represented by an array of counsel. Sergt.
(Higgins, who received his orders, testified
that about three weeks ago the lieuteuaut,
itn accordance with Ills custom, called him
into his olHco to give some instructions.
After telling me what ho wanted for the
dlght, the lieutenant further said that he
had held a conversation at headquarters
that morning with Major Walker, and he
had said that lie wanted a watch kept on
the habits of senators and congressmen
visiting south of the avenue, ns it might be
used to influence legislation.”
Tho next witness was Private Edelin,
who testified ns follows : “ Probably three
•weeks ago Sergt. Diggins and myself wore
•on duty together, he as sergeant and I as
officer of the beat. When we reached
Fourteenth and P streets, about 3 o’clock
in the morning, the sergeant said : ‘What
■do you think of the order of Major Wulker
•to the lieutenants to note the notions of
members of congress so as to have them
under his thumb for tho purpose of legisla
tion?’”
From the evidence of several others of
‘.the lieutenants and privates it was made
•quite clear that the mutter had been dis
cussed at houdquarters and practically
.agreed upon as the most effective method
•orbringing about tlic required legislation
for the benefit of the district.
It seems that Major Walker, the chief, is
^anxious to bring about some new legisln-
4m»d for the benefit of the police. He has
■•grown cranky upon this subject and lias
tost sight oT everything else concerning
district affairs. Another hobby of his is
4he announcement he makes almost daily
that he is the only chief of police in the
•United States who owns twenty houses.
This startling disclosure was apart of the
•cyitain’s testimony, which lie proudly
•offered as an evidence that a man of such
real estate holdings could not lie guilty of
resorting to low methods to bring about
legislation.
Tho case recalls a similar instance when
Congressman Whilthorne, now senator
from Tennessee, then chairman of the
bouse committee on naval affairs, who hud
in charge the investigation’ of “Secor”
jRoboson, was sot upon by a conspiracy. It
was attempted to decoy Mr. Whitthorne
into a liou.so of ill repute and then have
ithe police raid it. Whitthorne, however,
was not the unsophisticated southerner
they took him to be. He waited until the
Investigation was completed before ho
availed himself of any invilatious from
JKnheson.
Major Walker testified that there was no
truth in the charges made by Arnold.
"Walker’s ' testimony was corroborated by
adapt. Austin, who gave evidence that at
the meeting of the lieutenants in Walker’s
•room the morning in question the major
was very much elated at the good pros-
KJecte for tho police department estimates.
’The captain continued:
“During his talk he said that when the
estimates were brought up in congress it
would be well for all officers to use their
influence, if they had any, with congress
men, for a majority of the then were well
.acquainted with them. This brought out
-a remark that congressmen were not very
anxious to look after the police, for the
latter had to care for congressmen every
night.” “I know where I can put. my hand's
on a prominent congressman ut least three
nights in u week,” said Lieutenant Arnold,
whereupon Lieutenant Vernon said: “One
an an is now in destitute circumstances for
following up congressmen to see what
tthey were doing.”
Major Walker was writing ut his desk at
this time, aud he joined the conversation
to say: ‘‘Heiitlomen, we do not want to
Have any such business here. If you know
anything about congressmen or any one
else as to their habits aud haunts it can be
officially communicated to this depart
ment.”
The testimony of Lieut:;. Swindells, Bot-
•eler and Guy was all to the effect that no
older for shadowing congrosmen had
been issued, and that Major Walker had
•expressed himself as opposed to the spy
.system. Lieut. GessforiPs testimony was
that one of the lieutenants remarked he
could lay his hands oil tho speaker several
nights in the week, but did not say which
.speaker was meant.
‘‘It would be well for us to keep such
matters in mind,” said the major, “for it
might be the means of beneflttingus in the
future.” Iu the course of his examination
this witness also declared that a certain
senator could often be found in a house of
ill repute, but the exact locality was not
given. When Lieut. Arnold spoke of the
member who could be fouud south of the
avenue once or twice a week, the major
.said: “Make a note of such cases and we
can get an increase of 100 men for the
force.”|
Lieutenant Kelly, who was called for
the defense, gave the following testimony,
•which is the most damaging statement
made: He said that Major Walker sug
gested that we should note the habits of
congressmen who frequented questionable
places and report to him, so that he might
use the information to influence legislation
for the good of the force. Lieutenant Ar-
gmld said he could lay his hands on one

very prominent congressman south of the

“Very well,” said Major Walker, “any
.ime you gentlemen know anything of
that kind about members of congress just
•omc quietly to me and report, and I think
we can get, the force increased by a hun
dred men before congress adjourns.”
Some one suggested that that might po. -
sibly be regarded as blackmail and the
major replied: "Oh, no. It is not with a
view of exposing anybody at all ”
"Did you look upon tho major’s words
in the way of an order?” the witness was
asked.
“No," lie nnHwcrod, “I never said to any
body that ouch an order had been given:
and if such an order had been given, I
would not have obeyed It. I did not open
my mouth in the major’s room that morn
ing, but when we all oame out of the
major’s office, I said to Arnold :
“‘Well, 1 suppose you are going to re
port to the major everything the congress
men do in the evening?’
"Hesaid: ‘Well, no; notexactly.’
“I said: ‘Neither am I.’
“The letter bearing all the signatures,
which the major addressed to the commis
sioners, I signed, thinking that by doing
so I would help to save a public scandal.’’
There is every reason for believing that
tho matter will find its way into a con
gressional investigation, which may result
in un entire ohange of the police system of
tho district, and also the decapitation of
Chief Wulker. The impression quite gen
erally prevails that there is absolute truth
in the charges made by Lieutenant Ar-
uold, and that the district commissioners,
as well as tho chief of police, had talked
the matter over. It is safe to say now that
congressmen will have the usual freedom
of the .city without being under police
pionage.
Washington, November 15.—The sec
ond and closing day ot the trial of Lieut.
Arnold has failed to convict him of the
charges, but there is no question that
Chief of Police Walker, if not the district
commissioners themselves, is placed in a
very bad and perhaps irredeemably plight,
charges against Arnold were the basis
he trial, but the chief of police and
principal prosecuting witness was in fact
the defendant. If Arnold could es
tablish the. fact that the sugges
tion or order to shadow members of
congress had come from headquar
ters. then it lay with the chief and the dis
trict commissioners to clear their skirts of
one of the most high-handed and outrage
ous conspiracies ever evolved to influence
congressional legislation.
So far as weight of testimony goes, Ar
nold has established the fact that such a
suggestion was made, and whatever the
verdict shall transpire to be the case has
reached that point where the original
author of the scheme is bound to be dis
covered, even though officials of influence
should suffer.'
