ANNOPOLIS. Nov. 27. No great progress
waa made today In the trial by court-martial
of Midshipman Meriwether on charges
that embrace one of manslaughter In con
nection with the death of Midshipman
James R. Branch, jr., after a flat fight be
tween him and Midshipman Meriwether.
Perhaps the most important developments
of the day were the declHlon of counsel to
lut Midshipman Meriwether on the stand
In his own defense, and the appearance of
Dr. L. W. Gluzebrook ot Washington, who
was present at the autopsy held on the
body ft Branch yesterday. In the role of
advisor to Meriwether's counsel. Most of
the testimony offered today was by mid
shipmen!, and related to details of t lie fight
and events that led thereto.
Counsel for the defense offered Midship
man W. Y. Bradley of the second class to
testify. Bradley said that he had been de
tailed for duty with Branch shortly before
the fight. Branch had told him that they
must try to get a report against "chat man
Meriwether."
When on duty Branch had tried to In
duce the witness to make a report sgatnst
Meriwether, which he (Bradley) did not
think was justified and which he refused to
make.

timekeeper In the fight, testified that
Branch and Meriwether had fallen together
in clinches three times. Branch had fallen
in three other Instances and two of the
falls had been hard. He had always risen
promptly and did not appear to be stunned.
MldHhlpman " A. W. Fitch, who refereed
the fight, was recalled and testified aa to
the falls during Its course. He said Branch
had not received much punishment up to
the seventeenth round, when Meriwether
offered to stop.
Meriwether Spralas Ankle.
During the afternoon session Midshipmen
A. W. Fitch and Leigh Noyes, respectively
referee and timekeeper of the tight, were
recalled and again went over their testi
mony as to certain Incidents In the fight.
They said that twice, it was thought,
Branch had hit his head against the floor.'
Lieutenant Commander Decker testified
that the floors In Bancroft hall, where the
light was neld, have a concrete base, then
a layer of rough boards, and then the
smooth surface boards.
Midshipman Ralp Yeager, who was Meri
wether's second, said the latter had slipped
in the fifteenth round, spraining his ankle,
and that he was almost disabled thereby,
but said he could continue the fight, though
he could do little to defend himself.
The defense will close tomorrow unless
the medical testimony relating to the au
topsy consumes more time than Is now ex
acted. The court will meet on Thursday
(Thanksgiving day) unless an unexpected
order to the contrary Is received from the
secretary of the navy, and the probability
Is that the court will finish rts work by
Friday.
The court adjourned shortly before 3 p.
m. until tomorrow morning.

STORY OF LOVE AND CRIME
Girl Tells How Man Wooed and Won
Her, Then CoTCted Her
Brother's Coin.
Miss Rose A. Hoffman was a witness In
the district court Monday afternoon against
George Edwards, accused of forgery. Her
story was that the accused had made her
acquaintance nt the Victoria hotel last
summer, while she was taking a rest from
work. They had become pretty good
friends, "because he always followed me
when I went out walking." said Miss Hoff
man. Edwards told her he war.ted to gst to
Chicago, where he was supposed to have
money in bank. Miss Hoffman says he
tried to get money from her at that time,
but Bhe had none.
Through reading letters the girl received
from her brother Edwards learned that the
lutter had deposits in two banks In this city
and that Rose had the bank books. He
broached to her the plan of getting some of
the brother's money. She would not listen
to him at first.
"I said I had no right to get any of my
brother's money," said the witness. "But
he assured me positively I had, and when
he drew a check and signed my brother's
name after practicing on the signature I
went to the bank with him. I felt all the
time very queer, that there was something
wrong In whut I was doing, but I couldn't
figure out Just where the wrong was. When
we got to the bank steps 1 was awful ner
vous, but he pushed me Into the bank, al
most. If the man had asked me anything
about the check I would have told him the
whole thing, but he only took a little card
and compared the signatures. Then he
made me write my name on the check and
fave me the money."
When she got outside with the $50 she
9 I
had drawn, witness said. Edwards had
taken the money and they went back to the
hotel. He was to stay In Omaha a week, he
said, but did not show up that night. Then
to relieve her ffeellng of anxiety she spoke
to a friend about what she had done. He
told her that forgery had been committed
and she at once went to the police.
On the stand, under cross-examination.
Miss Hoffman admitted the action of Ed
wards in getting the money under promise
to return It and then going away had made
her very angry.
"He also got 115 from me," she said, "and
I had no reason to feel very good toward
him."
In consequence she entered Into an agree
ment with the authorities to write love
letters to Edwards In Chicago to get him
to come back.
Attorney Cooper cross-questioned Miss
Hoffman about the love letters she had
written, and he caught a Tartar.
"Didn't you write him some very endear
ing letters?" asked the attorney.
"I suppose I did," was the reply, "but not
any more so than he wrote me trying to
get me to go to Chicago; but I had an ob
ject In view, to get him back, so he would
be punished for the wrong he had done my
brother."
Mr. Cooper took the witness all along the
line from childhood to the present. She Is
an orphan, reared In a public Institution
and In several families In New York. She
came to Omaba a year ago last June to
meet the brother, whom she had not seen
in thirteen years. Her story as brought
out had pathetic features, Indicating
cruelty, sickness and hard work, borne
with good spirit. Miss Hoffman apparently
did not attempt to conceal anything and
made a decidedly good witness for the
prosecution.

Marcus M. Balrd of Sturgts, 8. D., ar
rived In Lincoln this morning, accompanied
by Sheriff Gibbon, to reclaim his fugitive
wife, who was arrested Saturday afternoon
on a Burlington train while traveling with
Jnmes L. Wilson, her former soldier hus
band. All day the parties have been in vigorous
conference, in which they were aided by
City Attorney Strode and the local police.
The woman gave It out flat-footed to the
officers that sho did not want to go home
with her husband, of whom she gave a
deeldeily bad report to the city attorney.
For some reason the police would not per
mit reporters to get near her, and it was
stated that she did not want to talk to
them, although she unburdened her mind
pretty freely to everyone else with whom
she came in contact.
During the afternoon an agreement wss
reached with the husband, who had been
placed in the cell with her for a conference,
whereby her alleged former husband, Wil
son, was released to go on to Pittsburg,
while she, it Is understood, will go to Mis
souri to visit with relatives.
