John Brown, colored, charged with th© murder of Andreas Viessmann. a saloonkeeper at 3d and H streets, the | night of May 13. 1911. was arrested about thirty miles south of Richmond, Va., last night by Detective G. E. Burlingame. Maj. Pullman received word that Brown had been seen in the vicinity of Providence Forge, his home, and last night the detective located him and placed him under arrest and reached here with him this morning. Brown seemed much amused when he reached the photographer's room at police headquarters to have his picture taken. He was in there early last March to be photographed after being placed under arrest for theft. Photographer Sandberg identified him by his fingerprints and the prisoner was so convulsed with laughter that it was riifficult for him to get himself together and make an explanation. "I was here all right," he said.

He made his way back home and was seen by some person who reported his presence there to the sheriff. The prisoner admitted having stabbed Viessman, his employer, and claimed he did so In, self-defense. Trouble between employer and employe resulted in the latter being ejected ' ri H 4* T*" O Q while thO' were on the street that the stabbing occurred. Viessmann died May 10, 1912. His wife died about a year ago. John James McDonald was the name given by Brown w^ien he was arrested last March for stealing several pairs of cheap socks from a store on 7th street. When he worked for Viessmann as cook, it is stated, he was known about the saloon as Rob Roy. An indictment charging murder in the second degree was returned against him by the grand jury shortly after the death of Viessman and he was held by a coroner's jury for the kiling. He was committed to jail today. It was explained by the police that they had no means of identifying Rrown at the time of his arrest in Marcn. J-ie nan never oemic rested, and his fingerprints were not in their possession. Brown, it is stated, had been a resident of this city only a few days at the time he stabbed Viessmann and was not known to the police.
