Collins was called before Judge Aylesworth yesterday, and oceupicd the entive afternoon. He was charged with 1; ny from the per son. The trial occupied the ent afternoon. The *‘row” turned out en masse to give evidence in the case. Collins has not a very enviable reputa- tion and does not stand v well with the police. He is alleged to have re- lieved a drunken rounder of his roll, amounting to $115. The court reserved his decision until 10 o’clock this morn- ing, the case having been submitted without argument at 6 o’clock, In dis- posing of the matter for the night the Judge considered the advisability of putting Claycomb, the prosecuting wit- ness, under arrest for the night, for fear’ that he would not appear this morning if the foolkiller happened to pass around during the night. The sporting element is making quite an effort to save Collins from the peniten- tiary, but the success of their labors is very doubtful, Only an Old Razor. “Take a look at that razor,” remarked Judge Barnett yesterday. ‘‘An old timeg?
