Ax Appuction Case.—We copy the follow- ing from the Baltimore American, of this morning : s *- On Saturday night last, a girl named Em- eline Palmer, aged fourteen years. left the res- idence of her fatherin Georgetown, D. C., and came on to this city in the company of a man named McKendree Dean, who had gained her affections. It was not known to her parents whither she had gone, nor was it suspected that she was with Dean, as no knowledge was had of any intimacy between them. A party was found who stated that they both left in the same train for this city, and on Tuesday after- noon the father came on in search of his child The police were informed of all the facts in possession of the father, and at six o’clock the captain of the eastern police station was re- quested to put his officers on the watch. About nine o'clock that night, officer Galter found the house to which Dean had taken her, and where he had been living with her as his wife ever since their arrival in thecity. Both were ' arrested and taken to the station, where they were kept all night. Dean was committed to jail to await the action of the father, who prom- ised to let the magistrate know as soon as he reached home what would be done. The girl stated that she left her home, expecting that Dean would marry her as soon as they reached this city, and her credulity was wrought upon by his promises to do a faithful part by her as bis wife. She is of very prepossessing appear- ance, and bitterly repents of her folly in hav- ing left her home for one who was wholly un- worthy to be trusted. “The father lett for Washington city at nine o'clock on Wednesday morning, with the un- derstanding that he would telegraph to Justice McAllister what course he would pursue. He was told if no communication was received from him before 6 o'clock p.m.. that Dean would be discharged. At six o'clock the coun- sel for Dean demanded his discharge, but Jus- tice MeA. refused, and said he should wait until nine o'clock yesterday morning. when, if no dispateh wuld ba received from Washing- ton. be would discharge the aceused. Accord- ingly, at nine o'clock yesterday, he was dis- charged from custody, and said he should take the first afternoon train for Georgetown. At half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, the fol- Jowing despatch was received : “Washington. July 12.—R. A. MeAllister, magistrate: The grand jury.of Washington county, in this District, have indicted MeKen- dree Dean for a high misdemeanor, and a beneh warrant is now in my hands. I am in- structed by the United States Attorney for this District to request that you will bring him on to Washington, and deliver him into my hands. «Joxau D. Hoover, Marshal, D.C. Justice McAllister at once sent a despatch to Mr. Hoover. advi-ing him of the discharge ot Dean. and informing him that he would probably reach Washington late in the after- noen, where an opportunity would be affur Zor his arrest.
