THE STATE MUST PAY.\\ hat it Cost* to Transfer Passen-

gers on the State steamersA hearing was had yesterday before

Collector Marine on charges made by W.O. Seville and John H. Cooper, local in-spectors of steam vessels, that on differ-ent dates in December last the. steamersin question, while acting in the place ofthe disabled steamer Thames, of theBaltimore and Eastern Shore Railroad jCompany, had violated certain statutes 1of thg United States.

The captains were both charged with Inot keeping a correct list of passengerscarried between Claiborne and Bay Ridge ]and the McLane was charged with hav-ing carried on four different tr ps m -repassengers than she was entitled tocarry according to bar certrficate of in-spection. Each steamer is allowed 25passengers. In their reports to the in-spectors the captains admitted that theykept no record, but that Purser Warfieldof the Thames, collected the tickets.When further reports were asked forCaptain Turner, of the McLane sent alit. showing an excess in the fonrtrips made of §3 passengers over thenumber allowed by the steamer's certiflcate. Captain Howard's last reportshowed no excess. The number of pas-sengers carried, however was obtainedby the captains of the steamers from theBaltimore and Eastern Shore RailroadCompany's purser of the Thames, thecaptains of the state steamers havingkept no record of their own.

The act gives the Collector the powerto impose the fines, which are SIOO ineach case, against the master ofa passen-ger steamer, other than a ferry boat, forfalling through negligence or design tokeep a list of passengers, SSOO for eachoffense against the owners of such steam-er. SIOO against the master and SSOOagainst the owners in each case forcarrying more passengers than allowedby the certificate of inspection.

Collector Marine in his opinion saidin conclusion. “I can add nothing tothat. These statutes seem to have beenprovided for that purpose. Inasmuchas 1 thus regard it I shall be compelledto fine the captain of the McLane for theviolation of Section 44(15 of which thereare four violations, SIOOfor each offensemaking S4OOAgainst the owner of the boat, for

violation of Hection 4490, ofwhich also there are four offen-ses, SSOO for each offense 2,000

1 shall have to tine the captain ofthe Thomas for violation of Sec-tions 44(17 and 4468 100

Against the owner of the boat forviolation of Seetion 4499 500

Total $3,000General Seth gave notice that the would

give bond and petition to the Secretaryof the Treasury for a remittance of thelines. The bond of $6,000 was preparedyesterday afternoon and will be filedwith the Collector at 11 o’clock thismorning. In tke case several years agowhen the state refused to allow thesteamers to be inspected by the govern-ment inspectors a fine of $14,000 was im-posed, and on appeal to the TreasuryDepartment the amount was reduced to$7,000, whish was paid.

governor jackson’s explanation.

Governor Jackson had no commentsto moke on Collector Marine’s decisionbut he seemed to regret exceedinglythat the state’s vessels had been putin a position rendering them liable to apenalty.

The Board of Public Works has beencriticised for allowing the steamers to beused by the Baltimore and Eastern ShoreRailroad Corny any, but the fact is theboard knew nothing of it un'il it wasall over, with the exception of a reluct-ant pet mission which I gave one nightfor the McLane to carry nine passengersI believe, who were waiting on theshore at Bay Ridge. The board wouldnot have allowed the use of the boatsand General Seth alone is responsible forthe whole affair.”

Gen. Seth Gets a License.General Seth yesterday afternoon

applied to the local board of inspectorsfor license as master of a vessel navi-gating the Chesapeake Bay. CaptainCooper examined the general and foundhim proficient in all duties required of amaster. The general boxed the compasslike an old tar, answered all questionsabout steam whistle signals, about meet-ing and passing vessels, what lightsshould be displayed and other technicaland practical question. The generalsaid that he had devoted nearly 25 yearsin sailing up ond down the bay and badcommanded several sail vessels runningbetween the Easteen Shore and Baltimote. A master’s license does not allowthe holder to navigate a vessel, butgives authority to direct the pilot as totime of sailing, hire and discharge acrew and superintened the affairs of thevessel generally.

FORBES COMICTEDjMisa Phipps* Assailant Gets a Just

Verdict.

TWELVE TRIED AMD TRUE HER.Ernest Forbes, the colored man who

in November last ravished Alias BerthaI B. Phipps, wrho lived with her ancle, G.j W. Hardesty, near Mount Zion, Anne

I Arundel county, was yesterday tried in) the Criminal Court ot Baltimore and was| cmnyicted. The vervlct was reached five

minutes after the case was submitted tothe jury. The penalty is death, orfromeighteen months to twenty-one yearsinthe penitentiary.

The jury that tried the ca*e was as fol-lows: Joseph Winkler, Frederick Fad-um, J. D. Gibney, William Banmeister,Jas. C. Bowen, Abraham Gladstone, OtisR BaadelL Samuel Kempton, Jno. M.Bennett, William Summers, E. E. Wor-ley and Geo. 8. Boyd.

Miss Bertha Phipps w’as present, andstayed in the ladies room with her aunt,Mrs. Georga VV Hardesty. Late iu theafternoon she was called to the stand.She was plainly dressed and heavilyveiled. She spoke in a low tremulousvoice and at the close of her testimonybroke down and wept. She again iden-tified Forbes as her assailant Asher eyes met his he bowed his head andmumbled something to himself.

THE VICTIM OF TIIE OUTRAGE.The prosecution was conducted by

State's Attorney Kerr and Deputy-State’s Attorney Campbell, assisted byState’s Attorney .Tames M. Munroe, otAnne Arundel County, who conductedthe examination of witnesses. Thecourt room was thronged with people,who listened attentively to all the pro-ceedings. Judge Wright was anxiousto finish the case, and the court did notadjourn until 8.30 o'clock.

THE STATEMENT OF MB. MUNROE.State’s Attorney James M. Munroe.

made the opening statement. He saidthat it would be somewhat difficult toconfine himself to the facts of the case,as there had been so many attempts of asimilar character, and two of them ac-complished, which had wrought up theeommunity. The State would provethat Miss Phipps, scarcely eighteen yearsof ago, had gone a short distance fromthe house, unconscious of any dangerand was there assaulted by this fiend inhuman form, who bad been heard to de-clare that he would have this girl by fairmeans or foul; that he stiileu her cries,'which, however, were heard as of somechild being whipped and crying; that shemade her way home, torn and bleeding,and that the prisoner had so fa.r confess-ed his guilt as to acknowledge he waspresent and saw the man who did thefoul deed;that the prisoner was arrested,escaped once and was again qapturedThe defense reserved its statement.

THE TESTIMONY.

Dr. C M. Cheston, a resident of AnneArundel county, who attended MissPhipps, was the first witness called Hetestified as to the injurit s she had sus-tained. Dr. Cheston stated that he hadseen Forbes in the magistrate’s officeand noticed spots of blood on his clothes.Forbes said his nose had been bleeding.

Geo. Neal, colored, who was next call-ed to the stand, said that he had knownForbes for a long time. Two weeks be-fore the crime was committed he wasworking in a corn field on Mr. Bowie splace with the prisoner, who tben ex-pressed his intention of assaulting MlbsPhipps. The witness did not tell a-iybody, because he did not think Forbes wascrazy enough to attempt it.

John Gross, colored, stated that he hadseen Forbes on the cross roads going to-ward Mr. Bowie’s house a little beforesunrise. He had known him a year ortwo, bat knew nothing of his reputa-tion.

Mrs. Geo. W. Hardesty, an aunt ofMiss Phipps, stated cows werekept in a pasture. Her niece went downa quarter of an hoar after sunrise. Shedid not see her again until her return.When she came back she looked badly,her hair was down and she was braisedand bleeding. She fall up aga’nst thehouse rad exlaimed:

“Oh! mother; that nigger aearly killedm#.’’

Then, Mrs. Hardesty said, Miss Phippsdescribed her assailant. In the afternoonRobert Neal, John Mitchell and anothercolo ed man were brought before her,but she did not identify them WhenForbes was brought to her she burst intotears and screamed that he was the man ■She also stated that the prisoner hadnever been in the house.

Edgar Hall, colored, heard the criescoming from Bowie’s woods about 7 80in the morning.

The court then adjourned until 3.30o’clock. Upon convening again EmoryHardesty, an uncle of Miss Phipps, wascalled to the stand. Be stated that behad arretted two men whomMist Phippscould not identify. She id< ntided Forbessaying that she knew him by his bigmouth and pop eyes. He then calledfora rope. No one got it, so he wentto findone, and in the meantime his prisonerescaped,

Thoa. Lears and Jas. E King testifiedas to the first arrest ot the prisoner andthe identification by Miss Phipps, hises-cape and recapture.

THK KVIUKXCE OF MtMPlltm,Misa Phipps herself was then called to

the stand. When she came to the stand jshe wore a heavy veil She raised herveil, however, when she was answering jquestions. She said she was sixteen j

I years of age the 16th of this month. "I j' milked the cows twice a day—at sun-upj and at 6P. M. On the 6th of November !; in the morning, I went inte the field as j| usual. The man caught me from behindand tried to pull rae down. I foughthim, and he tried to stuff rags in mymouth. He got them from hit pocket.He then threw me on the ground, and Isuppose he accomplished his purpose- Iwas screaming all the time, and he toldme if I did not hush he would kill me."

Mr. Munroe-ls that the man?Bertha (looking at Forbea)—Yes. that

is the man. Then the burst into tears.On cross-examination, she said she

knew that Forbes worked on her uncle'sfarm, as she had heard her nncle say so.She knew Forbes by name and sight

TUB NKt.RO OUTRAGES.The defense off red in rebuttal the tes-

timony of Forbes’ mother, (he prisonerssister, and a colored woman named Ellzabeth Henson, all of whom attemptedto prove an alibi.

The defense closed with this, and sev-eral witnesses were recalled to testilyas to the prisoner’s reputation. I>r. Ches-ton staled that Forbes’ reputation in thatcommunity was notoriously bad in casesof this sort Mr. Owings also said hehad a bad reputation for these assaults.

The court took a recces of 15 minutesand at 6 o’clock the closing argumentswere commenced.

CLOSING ARGUMENT.

State’s Attorney Munroe of Anne Arundel opened'and made a telling speechbefore the jury.

Mr. Warring followed and endeavoredto prove an alibi and case of mistakenIdentity by the hours shown by the wit-nesses. He also laid stress on the factthat Miss Phipps knew Forbes by sightand name, and yet did not give his namewhen first asked.

State’s Attorney Kerr closed for theState, saying that Forbes could havebeen in the house at 8 A. M , and yethave committed the outrage, ae it wasproven by the fact that Dr. Cheston wascalled at 8 o’clock.

The jury retired and in eight minutesreturned with the verdict of guilty.—Forbes was then conducted back to jail.

The verdict was received in this cityas a just and lawful one by all law-abid-ing citizens. ,

Hay or Prayer for Colleges.By appointment of the General Assetn-

| bly of the Presbyterian church, yester-

■ day was observed throughout the dei nomination as a day of prayer for the| colleges. At the service last night, inthe Presbyterian Church of this city, thepastor spoke substantially as follows:There are 53,587 college students in this j

j cone try. Since the establishment of jcolleges for girls in 1852, the number in jthese has increased until it is greater *than the number of boys in the collegesorganized for them. It is said that the jnumber of students in ths female colle-ges has reached 41.000 If to thelarge number in the medical, law andother colleges be added, the numberwould begreatly augmented. It mustbe apparent to all that the church ispraying for no small number to-day. Insixty five colleges in 1880fifty per cent,of the studentswere Christians. In 1890in seventeen colleges under Presbyter-ian control, 82 per cent, were membersof the church. In some of these collegesnearly all are Christians. In one collegethere were only six who were not mem-bers of the church. In another collegethere were only three students and inthree of these colleges there was onlyone in each who were not professors ofrrligion. In the forty or more collegesunder our control as a denomination, thestudents are engaged in bible study.There are in the seventeen collages men-tioned about one fourth who are study-ing for the ministry. When we thinkofthe large numbers gathered into our col-leges, and the numder who expects to beemployed in Christian work in the timeto come, we have great reason to bringthese young men in the arms of our faithto God. For many years the church hashad a day of prayer for the colleges, andGod has answered his people's petitions,for in 1830, about twenty-six per cant, ofthe students were membersof the church.The number has speadily increased untilas a denomination, we have about eigh-ty-two per cent, of the atudents of ourcolleges. Many of these are members ofthe college Y. M. C. Association. Thepresent condition of our colleges is mostencouraging. Religion is s* prominentin them that the parent may send hissons to them with the hope that theirspiritual interests will not be neglected.If his son is not a Christian when he en-ters, he may hope that he will becomeone before he completes his course. In-deed, what was a dangerous place for aboy who waa not well fortified dn Chris-tian principles fifty years ago, has be-come a place where many, whose relig-ious training had been neglected, havebeen led to consecrate themselves toChrist.
