The Question of Jurisdiction of the Police Court in the Taking of Bail. ARGUMENTS BEFORE CHIEF JUSTICE BINGHAM TO- DAY—DECISION RESELVED UNTIL MONDAY— THE PRISONER BEFORE THE COURT ON THE WRIT OF HABEAS CORPUS, Yesterday afternoon George Mantz, who shot E. E. Biunt on the 28th of October, was brought up from jail in obedience to the writ of habeas corpus issued by Chief Justice Bingham, as mentioned in ‘tue Star. The prisoner was taken before the chief justice. Mr, Armes appeared for the government and Mr. A: B. Williams for the petitioner. The question of bail pending the hearing on habeas corpus was considered and the amount was set at $5,000. This was given, Mr. Isaac B, Jones becoming surety and the hearing was fixed for 10 o'clock today. ‘THE HEARING THIS MORNING, The hearing took place this morning before Chief Justice Bingham and Justices Hagner and James sitting in General Term, Assistant District Attorneys Coyle and Armes for the governinent and Mr, A. B. Williams for the petitioner, Beiore Proceeding with the hearing the court suggested that counsel be as brief a3 possible. ‘The petition having been read, Marshail Rans- deli’s return was read, to the effect that he re- ceived the petitioner trom the warden of the jail, who held the prisoner under a commit- ment of the Police Court, MR, WILLIAMS ON THX LAW IN THE CASE. Mr. Williams read sections 1014 and 1015 (from the crimes act of 1789), and said that those sections applied to commissioners. it was held prior to the establishment of the Police Court that justices of the peace could take bail tor the Criminal Court. “The act es- tablishing the Police Court provides that the judge of the Police Court may examine and hold to bail in all offenses whether cognizable in that court or the Supreme Court of the Dis- trict. This was ceriainly broud enough. Un- der the construction on the other side all per- sons shall go to jail for a hearing, when the Coustitution says every one has the rizht to bail except in cases punishable with death. He understood that the construction was that the petitioner could only be held to_ bail for trial, Possibly it had been so held in New York, but he claimed that such decision was not obliga- tory on this court. YR. COYLE’s ARGUMENT. Mr. Coyle said the questiun at issue was as to the meaning of “hold to bail.” He claimed that the words meant that the magistrate could require bai! tor the court of final jurisdiction only and not fora hearing before him. He read numerous authorities and claimed that it was only under express laws of the states that commissioners or justices could hold to bail for a hearing; that they had no such right under common law, and no law of Congress conferred this power in the Disirict. He read section 101 as to the powers of the police judge to hold to bail, and suid that there was ho express grant, as is the case and that he may commit or take b: ing before him if it should appear that the case is triable before him, but he 1s not required to look beyond the pupers, and if the charge is triable by the Supreme Court he cun only take bail for that court. In conclusion, he said, they took this position because he was con- vinced that a bond for a hearing as is proposed could be enforced, MR, WILLIAMS IN-REPLY said that the questiva of bail was an important one, and if the court uphcid the contention on the other side innocent parties may be enforced to remain in custody. In passing the Police Court act Congress intended to give the judge full power, aud he succeeded to those of ine justices of the peace. In the broadest terms the power to take bail pending further hearing Was given the justices, aud the Poiice Court, created by the act of Junc, 1870, succeeded to those powers and the power was expressly given in that act. He claimed that some of ihe authorities read sustained the righs to tak bail, and asa matter of right le claimed petitioner was entitled to bail, ‘The decision will be announced on Monday. pease ale A “POPCORN FESTIVAL.” How the High School Girls Raised Money for Their School Library. the An odor of popcorn permeated the corridors of the high school building this morning and mingled with the aroma of fresh paint that ex- uded from the new walls of the recent addi- tion, It was an appetizing compound, how- ever, and advertised to the rapidly arriving pupils that there was something unusual about to happen. ‘They sniffed the air sus- piciously and then felt down into their pockets for strey nickels and dimes and smiled prophetically. There was a look of mystery about certain of the teachers and of the larger girls who arrived with large boxes and bundles in their arms. The solution of all these symptoms was contained in an announce- ment from the school rostrum yesterday morn- ing at opening exercise in the exhibition hall to the eifect that the girls of the school had determined to give what they were pleased to term a “pop-corn festival,” where large and generous bags of toothsome popcorn would be sold ut the extremely low rate of five cents apiece, the entire eds tobe devoted to the use of the school library, for the purchase of new fittings, ‘The girls furnished ever: thing, raw corn. poppers, and tarietan cf varie- gsted hucs for the bugs, vo that the sales were clear profit. The assistant principal of the school was ELECTED CHIEF POPPERESS and superintended the operations, The pop- corn bags, as widely tinted as the coat of Jo- seph, were piled high on tables in oro of the large study rooms of the new building, in which the furniture had not been placed, and the pile was added to by every late : was expected at first that there would be a thousand bags, but only 937 were obtained. ‘There was, besides the cora u!ready tied up, a large quantity of snowy, tleecy popcorn in bulk, which was distributed in just amounts at the same rate. @ At the ringing of the recess be! at 11:30 there Was a grent scampering of fect along ive halls and up the steps, and soon the large 100m and the corridor outside were filled by hungry pu- iis, nickels ready, eager to get the pick of the largest bags, Ina surprisingly shortspace of time the tables were cleared, tue money boxes jiuzied merrily and still there was a crowd of the un- sutisticd aud unprovided, asking for more, When the recali bell rang ut 12:15 fully $50 had been taken by the nymphs of the tables for the beneiit of the library. THE NEW BUILDING, which forms an “L” ou the west end of the old one, was accepted by the District Commission- ers on the Ist of November and is now partially occupicd by the school, ‘The furniture is slow in coming, however, nd this is delaying the School romewhat, Eoough rooms have been fitted with desks to enabie Dr, Lane to aban- don the aunex across the street for class pur- pores and to put tue pupils who occupied the Fooms there into quarters in the main build- ing. The unnex wili be retained, however. for the accommodation of the cookin school, Which will be trausterred to that buiiding from ite present quarters in another of the rented houses on the same street. The pace vacated by the cooking school will be use in THE MANUAL TRAINING WORK, which has grown toa surprising extent, Al- though there are nearly 1,500 pupils in the school, there are now accommodations enough toprovide instruction in this useful branch for podtatsiegs girl who desires to learn car- pontey: wirking or cooking. Owing to ot be possible tor the baitvasy sreionr hee not le for y system, w! at prevent includes the entire first and second a to be abandoned until the ist of ember at the earliest. This will carry the pupils through the first quarter of the school year, - } q THE DEADLY PISTOL AGAIN, A Man Shot in the Leg Last Night— A Cutting Affray. The deadly pistol was used again last night, but fortunately for the victim the bullet only entered his leg and inflicted a wound which is not necessarily a fatal one. Leonard Cole, the victim, is a young colored man, while his as- sailant, Henry Brown, is also colored. The former is lying on a cot in Freedman’s hospital under treatment, while the latter has been as- signed to acell in jail. The shooting, which took place on 15th street extended about 7:30 o'clock last evening, was the result of a row between the men Monday night on the hill on ith street extended, BROWN NEITHER ADMITS NOR DENIES the shootiug, but says he was in the Monday row. He says that Cole, who lives near 16th street extended and the Columbia road, at- tacked him Monday night and beat him for no cause whatever, and last night he attempted to repeat the same thing. ‘Then they had the trouble. Policemen Helan and Bryan, who heard of the shooting. went in pursuit of the man who fired the shot, They succeeded in ar- resting Brown for the shooting and they also arrested George Wells, colored, who, it ‘is al- oh ga with Brown and made threats against Sole, TRE CUTTING OF HENRY HOFFER. In conducting their investigation the officers learned something about the cutting of Henry Hoffer on 14th street Tuesday night. Acting on information they had reccived they arrested another negro named Bartley Holmes, and he admitted that he did the cutting. This morning in the Police Court Hoffer told his story. He is employed by John Cook, and Tuesday evening he went out to deliver an order. While walking up the 14th street hull he saw several men coming toward kim. He did not step out of their way in time and asked them not to knock him down, as cue of them ran against him. Holmes aud another man, whom he thought was Henry Brown, grabbed him and Holmes cut him across the face and tirost, It wasshown that Brown took no part in that assault and the case against him was dismissed, Holmes was sentenced to eleven months and twenty-four days in jail. The charge aguinst brown for shooting Cole was continued until next Friday. ee Recent Robberies.

Some Difference o: Opinion Regarding the Rights of Host and Guest. From the Phitsdelphia Prosa, An esteemed cotemporary says: “Is it or is it not ‘the thing’ for young men who have been invited toa ball to sueak upstairs during the entertainment and order the host's waiter to bring up brandy and soda and ciara for their private delectation? At first blush this riddle looks easy. Bat it is not, for iteo happensthat there are moro girls in socicty than men, and that men are essential to society. Further more, the men, by the grace of some peculiar endowment, are the leaders of the society of the country, and they have got in the habit of looking upon the little smoking room, the brandy and the soda as their just perquisites, Otherwise they could not lead and suffer being so constantly bored as they are. Their duties are by no means trivial. God hos not always blessed them with conversational brilliancy, but they have a supremo sense of their duties to the rest of the world, and with never-fail.cg regularity they show them- selves at their posts, doing their duty in fault- jess uniform, Being but few im numbers, it is manifest that their little comforte should be looked after; and so it has grown to be a fashion in the highest circles to have a private smoking ani drinking room attached to every worthy ertertainment, in order to relieve the pressure on the leaders caused by living cease- jossty up to the highest standards of very good form, A RUDE RARBARIAN FROM TRE WEST, who is passing bis novitiate ‘in society,’ has lately disturbed its absolute harmony and quiet. He provided the necessary bail on the most aptuous scale, even to the smoking room, but omitted the little botties, Thea , during the middle of the feast, that two noble young auchorites bad foreworn the frivolities he provided, and were feasting upstairs with privily ordered nivistrations from the larder, he flew intoa towering rage and thrust the harmless geatiemen out of the house. He showed his ignorance of the usages of polite society by further remarking that they were acting in a way that was unbecoming to gentlemen.” ‘the esteemed cotemporary evidently ap- Proves of the action of the barbarian from the west.
