There were three passengers on the 10:10 express on the Pennsylvania railroad last evening who did not pay there fare, and for this reason the train was stopped on New Jersey avenue and the young men were quietly removed from the blind’ end of the mail car, Usually when persons who have attained their majority are found on the train they are accused under the vagrancy act of being suspicious persons. No one suspects that they are train robbers or robbers of any other kind, as a rule, for they are for the most part persons belong- ing in other cities or residents who want to get away from here to look for work or take a trip across the country. The three passengers taken from the train last night gave their names as Harry Ford, Frank Carter and Daniel Davis. This morning they appeared In the Police Court, and, although they belong here, they were willing to plead guilty to any charge and go down rather than have their iden- tity made known, The prisorer who gave his name as Ford said he was twenty-two years old. Judge Miller doubted that he had given his right name, and when questioned concerning his identity the boy almost choked. “My name is Frank,” he managed to tell the judge. “What's your father’s name?” next asked. “Jacob H. Frank.” “What's his business?” “He's a messenger in the surgeon gen- eral’s office.”” The young prisoner said he was going to Baltimore to look for work, “but,” he re- marked, “I've got enough, and if given an opportunity I'll go home.” Frank Carter turned out to be Grant Gow- ans, who said he lived at {19 25th street. “I know him,” volunteered Officer Han- ley. “He has a good home and nice people. Once before he went away and only return- ed about six months ago.” Daniel Davis was then called and he ad- mitted that his name is George Norman. “My mother's name is Virginia Norman,” he said, in answer to the court's inquiry, “and she lives at 331 Liberty street.” Gowans and Norman being only eighteen years old, were charged with jumping on a train in violation of the police regulations, and Judge Miller said he thought the regu- lations should apply to full grown men as well as minors. “These boy as he referred to the trio, “had better be sent home.” The judge had the bailiff send word to their parents. When the latter appear the boys will undoubtedly be released. No Use, Annic. Little Annie Crawford was next in line, end the charge agairst her this time was not vegrarcy.

A_ witness, who described the affair, said: “The men quarreled, and this man got a brick and threatened to kill the other man with it. Then the peacemaker appeared, and made things worse.” “I reached the scene when the troubie was over,” said Policeman Lang'ey, “and made the arrest.” George did not deny that he was the neither did he deny that he had the brick. “And, judge, I had a tack up my shoe, and was trying to drive it out.” “With what “The brick. “Just what I expected to hear.” Judge Miller remembered the excuse given by a negro a few days ago, who said he wanted to sharpen his penknife on a brick, and fined George the usual amount. Had an Excuse. John Johnson went to the “flying horses” last evening and got arrested because he did not know how to conduct himself in a gentlemanly manner. He was fined $20. William Blackfield, a man whose appear- ance indicated that he once lived in another country, appeared as a Coxey sympathizer on a charge of vagrancy. He arrived here yesterday and had not had an opportunity to go to the camp across the river. “I ain't jined no army yet,” he said when questioned. “I came here from St. Louis, where I worked for the government making mats.” Then he told of his tramp here to look for work, and said he slept in the woods last night. Early this morning he was in Georgetown headed toward the tramp camp, but like other commonwealers he stopped and begged for something to eat. Policeman Ward waited until he finished eating and then arrested him. Although William declared that he was not a member of the army, he had some Coxey literature in his pock: “I don’t want to stay he if _you let me go I'll leave.” Under this promise the judge let him go on his personal bonds. Susan Barnes, a colored woman from Limerick alley, whose dress was trimmed with green silk, answered a charge of dis- orderly conduct. “I was speaking in conversation with one of my neighbors,” said an old colored wo- “and Susan was so interrupting that stand it.” “Go on home and behave yourself,” said the judge.
