DILATORY POLICE OFFICIALS.—The business of the Tombs Police Court is often retarded by the omts- sion onthe part of certain captains of down town wards to send their prisoners to court before ten o'clock in the morning, whereas the magistrates contend it is the duty of the captains or sergeants a charge of the station houses to make a return o! their arrests at the opening of the court, Six veloc, A, M. By so doing the magistrate clears his calendar of cases at an early hour, which leaves him free for the disposition of more important business which may come in later in the day. Another reason why this old time custom should be adberred to is the fact that Innocent parties (as 18 oiten the case) who may chance to fall into the hands of the Rapes aes over night can be arraigned before the court at ible moment and their release secured. owling has reqengy, petitioned tbe Superi dant ot Police ont ie Subject and earnestly asked that his wishes be complied with, but without avail. BOLD CAR saa Interesting Operations on the Fourth Avenue Read. The noted expert pickpockets of the city for a while have remained in seclusion—awaiting, pos- sibly, the passing away of the storm of indignation which ail honest mon recently indulged in at the laxity of justice hereabouts. A few of these thieves, however, who have become very poor and must need something to support them, have left ther lurking places, and again the old trick of “nipping” watches on street cars tas come in vogue. The first arrest of prominence of these recent manipulators of other men’s property occurred very late Thursday night last, on Fourth avenue, under the following circumstances, narrated before Justice Dodge at the Jefferson Market Poiice Court, Beha M. Alberto Pagenstecher, a German im- ding at No. 7 St. Mark's place, accused orge King, wWhoee face is familiar ty officers and courts as a noted b magennre of relieving lim of his watch and chain, valued at $250.

For many months the present Superintendent of Police has, by his acts at least, shown that he pro- poses to control the above establishment and run it independently of any superior authority; and he has exercised that power with a vengeance. One of the results of his maladministration is that the whole machinery of the police organization 1s rusty and ‘unfit for service. A little grease is necessary.

The Board deiegated to him no power to promote one of the force over oe other, yet he has done so without consulting it, and, while Mr. Kelso’s appointment gives general satisfaction, Mr. Kennedy's action is Jookea upon as a rather unwarrantable interference with the duties that properly pertain to the Board.

Persons well versed in police law and rules ane of mi opinion that the Board has acted hastily in put- ting we late chief of detectives on trial, and that there fs no authority nor precedent tor their action, Captain Young yesterday was at the Central Uuice for some ‘hours, and freely expressed his determi- nation to contest the issnes raised, THE RULE OF THR BOARD. Several rules are quoted, but the following is the one upon which the Board have taken action:— ‘The Board of Police, for meritorious and extraordinary ser- views rendered by Any member of the poltce force, in the due discharse of his duty may, at their discretion, permit Ls member to retain tor Lis own benefit any reward or tent tendered tam therefor; but {t shail be a cause of re- movai irom the iorce Jor any member thereof to receive any such reward or present witout ging notice thereof to the Hoard of Metropolitan Police, thro ite Wica rewards are allowed to be. retaiued by members of the yer cent of the amount thereof shal be of the Lie Insurance Fund, on all sums from ive dollars to $20), aud Hiteen per cent on ail sums above 32H) to 1, and iwenty ive per cent on all ums above 3h Captain Young claims that he has given notice through the Superintendent, in obedience to this order.

SUPPOSED SUICIDE. Mysterious Disappearance of a Woman. from Bont im the River. ‘The East river has been the scene of one of those mysterious events, involving the fate of a human being, which may remain forever one of the unsolvea mysteries incidental to city life. Between the hours of eleven and twelve o'clock on Tuesday mght John Knapp, of the canal boat T. J. Harvey, lying in the East river, at the foot of Eleventh street, came to officer Abbott, of the Eleventh precinci, and stated that about three weeks ago he took from @ disreputable house in Centre street a woman named Martha F. Miller to act as cook on the boat. During the evening she said she felt fll, and asked him to procure her some liquor. He left at about nine o'clock for it and went to a store in aveaue D.

Each face betrayed the utmost resolution, and every rugged counte- nance showed a resolve to do or die in some terrific contest in which he was evidently about to engage. In the cart (or rather chariot) were five or six stal- worth warriors of ominous aspect, who seemed to await, impetiently, orders from the cliief below.

In many cases the complaints of the citizens were so vehement that for a time even the courageous band with the biue chariot were be at pay by the torrent of angry expostula- tion that assailed them. Their hesitation, however, did not last long; the spirit of “glorious war’’ soon resumed its sway in thelr martial breasts; once more up went the ladder and down came a banner pole. Arrived at the Museum of Anatomy & projecung banner arrested the attention of the lyux-eyed skirmishers. That banner must be captured, and a glance at the ys jomies of the band that was about to scale the walis of the museum told the proprietor of that establishment that any appeal to their feelmgs woud be useless. They are not men to be moved by anato- my or “wax figgers,” or daunted by the head of Probst, the murderer. The museum was in a short time left minus its fay, ensigns. Right poe ieft the warriors continued their captures. Arriving near Great Jones street another pole was seen projecting a short distance trem over a doorway, and to the pole was attached a small piece of canvas informing the passers by that an auction sale was going on there. Here was an obstacle that suddenly arrests the career of @ band who have marched in triumph for nearly a iiie, capturing every offending pole and sign that met their dauntiess gaze. But this auctioneer’s sign arrests for a time their victorious career. The chiefs were in doubt as to the wisdom of numbering this sign among their captures. “Is it,” they ask each other, “among the trophies allowed by the orders from the potent Street Commissioners?’ A council of war was held; the chiefs tried to look thoughtful, but having little reasoning power to bring to their aid, concluded that prudence was “the better part of valor,” and regre‘fully passed on, leaving the auctioneer’s pole aud sign unscathed.

Alecture on the above subject was delivered by Dr. Willard Parker last night, in the Olivet chapel, in Second street, near Second avenue. The lecturer, on coming forward, was received with applause.
