MANY ASSAULT CASES Fighting Blood Cooled by Police Oourt Sentences, Cowardly Attneck on a Young Boy—A Shooting Case Goes to the Grand Jury. William Walker, a young man who lives in Northeast Washington, got drunk Sat- urday night and was in a disorderly crowd in front of a saloon on H street, when Policeman Stanler came along and arrest- ed him. “What are you arresting me for?” was what the intoxicated man wanted to know. There was no time for explanations, and the officer simply told him he would have to go. But the drunken man had no idea of go- ing without a struggle, and it was only after a hard tight that he was locked up. Walker assaulted the officer until assist- ance reached him, and then he was locked up. In Judge Miller's court this morning the prisoner admitted his guilt and was fined $30 or ninety days’ imprisonment. Robertson’s Case. A colored man ramed Robert Robert- son was also in the procession of amateur pugilists, and he, too, was fined. Robertson was at his home in Casey’s alley, when a woman with whom he says he had lived came there and broke open the door. He started in pursuit of the wo- man and would probably have assaulted her had not a citizen taken her part. This angered Robertson and he struck the citi- zen with a stone. When Policeman Maguire arrested him he gave notice that he would give him a dose of the same treatment, but when the offl- cer told what he would do the prisoner went along without any trouble. He was fined $10 or thirty da: Cowardly Assault. A colored bootblack named John H. Bland was in court because of a cowardly assault on Eddie Latham, a little news- Loy. ‘he assault happened in a saloon on 9th street,” said the policeman. “What was this little boy doing in a saloon?” the judge asked. “He ran in there for protection,” an- swered witness. ‘The saloonkeeper told the court that the bootblack followed the boy in the saloon and kicked him several times. ‘Why did you assault this boy?” “He sat on my chair and then struck me on the leg with a clam shell.” “You will havo to go to jail for three months.” An Unpleasantnens. Robert, alias “Bob” Ford, alias Johnson, and Josephine Holmes, colored, who have lived together in violation of the Ed- munds law, appeared to tell of an un- Pleasant meeting.they had in O'Brien's court Tuesday night. Two days before this night they separated, and when the man returned to the house he found Josephine in bed asleep. Without a word of warning he leveled his pistol and fired two shots at her. One bullet lodged beneath the scalp, while. another entered her hand. After doing the shooting Ford disappear- ed and has remained in the neighborhood ef Rosslyn. Last night he came across the river and Policeman Cooney arrested him. Dr. McDonald attended the woman and extracted the bullets so that she was able to appear in court this morning. After hearing the proof Judge Miller held the prisoner in $2,000 security for the action of the grand jury. Other Cases. Abe Fitzhugh, a colored man, who has Gained for himself the reputation of being a fighter, was in the procession because he had trouble with Policeman Evans. He was arrested on a charge of having figured in a crap game, and on the way to the station they had a fight. The case will be tried to- morrow. Ernest Henderson was fined $2 for an as- sault on Edward Madden. Conductor Michael O’Brien of the Bright- wood electric road was charged with an as- sault on Joseph Chester, who was a pas- senger on his car. The affair happened last night, and several men on the car received injuries. Chester, it is alleged, had not fig- ured in the’ fight, and the blow he received Was not intended for him. The case was continued. Two small boys, Harry Dannings and Robert Armstrong, were charged with havy- ing assaulted Mrs. Gibson, at her home on R street. The boys were throwing stones, so it is charged, and one of the missiles struck Mrs. Gibson. AS the striking was an accident, Mrs. Gibson had the charge withdrawn. ———._—_ BUTTER IN BELGIUM. The Consumption of Artificial Pro- ducts in That Country. George W. Roosevelt, United States con- sul at Brussels, has transmitted to the State Department a report on butter, mar- jorine and other artificial butters of Bel- gium, which shows that the consumption of marjorine in that country is about 33,- 000,000 pounds, of which only 6,600,000 pounds i3 produced in Belgium. Most of the marjorine used is imported from Hol- land. The consumption is constantly in- creasing, and is sold in the markets and under its proper name. The government is doing what it can to encourage the manufacture of marjorine, not only to sup- ply the home demand, but to ultimately compete with Holland for the English mar- ket. England imports over 143,000,000 pounds annually, at a cost of $17,370,000. Most of it comes from Holland, where a specialty 1s made of mixing ‘American oleomargarine with oil and milk. To foster the home production of marjorine the Bel- gium government proposed to impose an import duty of $3.88 per 220 pounds. A delegation sent to Holland to ascertain whether the manufacture of marjorine had been favorable to agricultural interests re- ported that since the introduction of the marjorine industry the price of milk and the number of cattle had increased, show- ing that it had become a source of profit to the former a ——_—~--e CHOLERA REGULATIONS. A Hope of Reducing the Chances of Contracting the Disease. The surgeon general of the marine hos- pital service is advised that the interna- tional council of health has instituted new regulations for the sanitary service of the Hejaz, with the hope of reducing the chances of contracting cholera there and of spreading it after the annual pilgrim- ages to Mecca. At the beginning of the pilgrim season, twelve physicians, four civil and eight military, and two druggists are to be sent to tue Heiaz. The civil physicians are to aave charge of the sani- tary service in general, and the military physicians of the treatment of the sick. The pharmacies recently established in Mecca will be kept open throughout the year. Three sanitary officers are appointed, whose duty it shall be to prevent the crowding together of the pilgrims, and to inspect the food supplied them. Many details are provided to secure purer water, and to prevent contamination not only while the devotees are at Mecca, but while they are going and coming as well. ———————-~2-_____ Police Cases. At a meeting of the board of Commission- ers late Saturday afternoon the following police cases were disposed of: Private J. I. Fitzgerald, tried May 22 for gross neglect of duty; adjudged to be guilty and fined $10. Private W. R. Cook, tried May for gross neglect of duty.
