Usual Array of Cases This Morning— Many Were Drunk—An Orphan Boy in Court. While Judge Kimball is rusticating in Maine and catching sea bass off the coast the victims of the police who are visiting his court are also enjoying what they have never before enjoyed in hot weather. In- stead of being hauled about in the closely covered vehicle called the “Maria,” they are driven about in “Dirigo,” one of Knox's omnibuses, which was not in the ill-fated building the night of the fire. Justice Taylor held the reins of justice in court this morning, and will continue to do so until the first of September. Today was the first day of the present holiday season for the justice, and he had many callers. But rot being a novice at the business, he dis- posed of them in a business-like manner. Oliver Dorsey, who had been in court Taany times before, was the first one to appear. Oliver was paid off Saturday, and instead of going straight home he stopped at places where “fire-water” was sold at five cents for what the drunks call a “hum- ™ Oliver's appearance this morning in- ee ee ee ee ee his ead. “I'm guilty,” he answered when a: ed for disorderly conduct. “And,” he added, “I would like to have until Saturday to pay my fine.” “will anybody speak a good word for you?” “He works all the time,” volunteered a policeinan. “I will give you time to pay the fine this morning,” the judge told him, “but I don't Want to commence this credit business. When you get arrested you vught to have money with which to pay your fin “Yes, your honor, Oliver, pay cash next time.” John Diggs, another color2] citizen, was next in line, and he, too,answered “Guilty. He, too, wanted time to settle the bill, and in explanation of his conduct he said, “I was asleep when I was crrestet.” “Then do I understaad you to mean that you swore in your sleep?" “Well, not exactly,” the negro answered, “you know they woke me up ani made me mad, and then I said sumething wrong.” ‘Five dollars.” ‘Won t your honor give me until Saturday to pay the fine. All these policemen know aa “But do any of them know any good of you?” Several policemen answered in the affirma- tive and John’s name was put on the credit list. John Williams, colored, says he is employ- ed at the Army and Navy Club and asked that a messenger be sent to the club for money to pay his fine. John left the club late Saturday night, and started in the di- rection of his home in the county. It is not known whether or not he stopped on the road, but when he reached the corner of 18th and Cedar streets he got arrested. Special Officer O'Day told the court that John was not only drunk, but he had a bottle of whisky in his pocket for his use on Sunday. According to the evidence John was pro- fane and boisterous, but John argued that he was alone, “And,” he said, “there wasn't nothing to swear at.” “When I piaced him under arrest, said the special officer, “he pulled the "bottle from my pocket and tried to hit me.” “No, I didn't,” said John. “You will have to pay $10.” Was an Orp! Joseph Franklin, a small orphan boy, was arrested Saturday night by Policeman Mur- Phy of the ninth precinct, and kept in the station behind the bars until this morning, when he was driven to court in company pith the older and hardened violators of The policeman had heard some bad lan- guage used by a crowd of boys, and when the others ran Joseph remained there, be- cause, he said, he had not used any of the bad language. But the policeman had heard the lan- guage, and he thought the boys had all taken part. Judge Taylor, commenting on the case, said he realized the fact that the boys have not many places where they can play, and said he did not intend to impose fines for every little noise. “But where boys are profane,” the judge said, “they should not only be arrested, but should be made to pay their fines.” In this case, the boy being an orphan, the judge thought he was not being looked after in a manner such as his mother woul look after him. A fine was imposed, but the court released the boy, warning him — he had better be more careful in the ‘ture. According to the evidence given by J. H. Cole, colored, there is a “speak easy” in Naylor's alley. aided “I was going yesterday,” he said, “to get a drink of whisky, but the police- man 1d me before I got it.” “And you were not even looking on the game?” “No, indeed,” he answered. Wm. Bright's name was also on the in- formation, as was that of a boy named Lewis Hoimes. former invited the lat- ter up the alley, and he went. And the police followed them. “I got the bones,” said Sergt. Joe Acton, who described the positions of the men when he reached the alley. The boy, Holmes, was fined $5, while the men were fined $10 each. Indecent Conduct. Detective Boyd made a case yesterda: His victim-was a negro named L. R. Dan- gerfield, about whom a number of com- plaints have been made. His indecent con- duct got him in trouble. Because of the complaints the officer remained at home yesterday and saw the man in the act of violating the law. e “Twenty-five dollars,” remarked the court. Henry Jackson is a bootblack, and when he appeared in line he had his brush to show that he was not a common loafer. John risked two cents in a game, so Ser- geant Daley told the court, and he rhowed the judge the money. “That ain't my money,” John said, “and I wasn't playing crap. I was passing the game, when one of the players called me and asked me to change ten cents for him.” ‘The usual fine was imposed. As no one claims the money it will be turned over to Chief Clerk Sylvester to help sweil the police fund. There was trouble in the Griffin family yesterday, but the policeman who arrested three members of the family depended on rumors to convict them, rather than on what he had heard. Emma Griffin, the young daughter, said “guilty” and then admitted that she said <——" “ ‘The hearsay evidence ¢f the policeman put all the blame on Joseph, the son, who was locked up, but he said the old man caused all the trouble, and Mrs. Griffin said the same. The mother and son were released cn their personal bonds and Emma was fined. Several victims of rum, who had made their beds on the sidewalk, appeared and were fined. — Falls via B. and 0., $10, August 2d. 4 Personally cenducted tour leaves Wash- ington via royal blue line express, Thurs- day, August 2, at 5:05 p.m. Through Pull- man sleeping cars to Niagara Falls.

An over indulgence in whisky caused sev- eral of the Coxeyites at the encampment near Highlands to become somewhat ob- streperous Saturday night. Co4stable Levi Semmes of Bladensburg 2ppeared with five assistants to compel order, and upon being met with threats of resistance arrested the ringleader and locked him up in the Bla- densburg calaboose. Another Coxeyite was Iso arrested by Constable Barr for as- ulting Semmes, and several other arrests are to follow. There was no food in the Coxeyite commissary yesterday, but the few men remaining will not consider leaving their camping place. It is understood that the men Stegmaier, upon whose place the camp is situated, will shortly give his visi- tors notice to quit, as they are no longer profitable to him. At the Typographical Temple yesterday, J. H. Randall, leader of the Chicago contin- gent, made an address, during which he read a document signed by a number of the commonwealers, denying that Coxey had deserte! them, and expzessing absolute — and confidence in the man of Mas- sillon. Over in Rosslyn the rain made life yester- day very disagree ble for the “industrials,” soaking their blankets, drenching their rude huts and shelters, and causing their owners to seek sleeping places in the Arlington car stables, and on the neighbozing porches in Rosslyn. The fcllowers of Frye, Kelley et al. deny that they have received any notice from the Virginia authorities to vacate the encampment, or that they have been threat- ened with arrest if they are found soliciting assistance on Virginia rcads. They say they are going to stay where they are, and one of the more independent of the men re- marked yesterday: “If Governor O’Ferrall sends any of his play soldiers up here we'll take their guns away from ‘em an’ sell ‘em fur bread an’ meat.” ~~ BROTHERHOOD OF ST.

CAUSED BY LIGHTNING. — A Lively Blaze in a Well-Known City House. Yesterday afternoon during the storm several companies of the fire department were called out to respond to an alarm of fire sounded by Policeman J. H. Clements from box No. 136. Had it not been for the discovery made by the policeman, who was on duty in all the rain, ‘the. fire wouid no doubt have been a serious one, but, being discovered so soon, the firemen were on hand before the flames had an opportunity to spread, and the consequence was that the entire loss did not exceed $1,500, The fire started in the cupola of the old Morrison mansion, 1015 L street northwest, to which access is also had by the occupants of the adjoining house. In this cupola the vecu- pants of the house had goods stored, 1 ad- ing bedding, books and household effects. When the policeman made the discovery and went to the house he found that some cf ihe occupants were asleep, while one of them was enjoying a bath. It took but a few minutes, however, for them to dress, get to- gether their jeweiry and other valuables and seek a place of safety. When ‘he firemen arrived they soon had the flames under ccn- trol, but in addition to the actual damage by fire congiderable damage was done vy water. House No. 1015" is occupied by Hugo Carlington and owned by Mrs. Mery Barrington. The adjoining house is a pied by Mr. W. T. Wood, the patent at- torney, who was not at nomie at the time of the fire. The cause of tue Cre is unknown, although the firemen thing it was caused by lightning. —_—_—_ COLORED SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
