1% THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 1898. POLICEMAN COOK MAKES 1 BAD BREAK He Accepts Bail and| Then Incarcerates His Prisoner. Frank Bond, a Lodging- House Clerk, Is His Helpless Viectim. The Officious Patrolman Must Answer to the Police Commissioners. CAPTAIN SPILLANE ANGRY Serious Charges Have Been Preforred Against the Pinkerton of Mar- ket Street. Police Officer James Cook will have to answer to a charge of unofficerlike con- duct at the next meeting of the Police Commi; ners. Last Monday Cook was sent by Captain Spillane to servea war- rant on Frank Bond, night clerk at the Denver House, charging him with bat- tery. After forcing his way into his | room, Bond explained 1o Cook that Al- fred Berg, the complaining witness, had attempted to assault him, and to pro- tect himself he affectionately smote him on the nose. Bond, after inquiring | as to the amount of bail, gave Cook $40 with the understanding that he was to deposit it at the Centrai Station in liew of his ap nce. Cook, after accept- ing the mo v, left the house, after tell- ing Bond that “everything would be all right.” To the surprise of the night clerk, the officious policeman returned in about twenty minutes, and com manded him to dress himself. “You can’t make a monkey of me,” | arked Cook. “I am dead on to Cook then threw the two twenties he | had received on the bureau, and with | an oath ordered the surprised clerk to ‘put on his clothes.” Bond reluctantly obeyed, and as he | finished his foilet Cook seized him by the arm and dragged him downstairs, | where the patrol wagon was in wait- | in He was then hustled into the | wagon and driven to the Central Sta- tion. After the latter place was reached told him that he could secure his by putting up $40.

Yesterday | formal charges were entered against| the officious policeman. B in his statement to Captain | Spillan accused Cook of being influ- enced by a gang of “soreheads” who | lodge in the house. “They had no use for me,” he re- marked, “and when Berg continued to | tantalize me, I promptly landed on his | jaw. He had an aggravating habit of | taking out his knife and ‘whittling his | pencil when he engaged me in conver- | sation. Last Sunday night he repeated | the performance, arid as I thought he | was getting too familiar I soaked him in the jaw. “Cook seemed satisfied when I gave | him the amount of my bail,” he con- tinued; “but after leaving my room he evidently met the gang,and they chided him about not locking me up. Evident- 1y to appease them, he again broke into my room.and after throwing the money on the bureau, started to pull me out of bed.” Captain Splllane is Indignant over what he terms the Insolence of Cook. “If the facts are true,” he remarked | last night, “he is not fit to be a police- man. He ought to be dismissed from | the force, and if Bond satisfies the| Commissioners that his story is correct, there is no doubt but what he will. I am trying hard to assist the Commis- sfoners in making this a model depart- ment, and to think that a policeman, particularly one of my own men, would endeavor to upset my plans seems strange, to say the least. Cook, how- ever, will get a square deal, and if the facts as stated by Bond are true, T will do all in my power to have him dis- missed.” HINTON INTRODUCED. At the meeting of the Railroad Com- mission yesterday W. M.

Rogers Runs Amuck on the Or- egon Express. He Wanted to Kill His Bereaved Brother-in- Law, W.H. Weeks. They Were Returning Fromthe Burial of Mrs. Weeks in Nevada City. SORROW BECAME ANGER. Weeks Was Disarmed in the Morn- ing or There Might Have Been More Trouble. It was an excited lot of passengers that came in on the Oregon express last night, and the presence of a police officer in uniform, who was evidently waiting for one of their number, in some measure explained the cause of their agitation. There was a returning funeral party on board, and one of them, the brother | St. Ignatius College. of the deceased, had so far forgotfen | his grief as to make'a murderous as- | | ment will be solely devoted to defray the sault upon his brother-in-law, having previously nerved himself for the as- sault by frequent libations whenever the train stopped long enough at a sta- tion to allow him to visit the saloon at- tachment. The party was returning from the funeral of Mrs. W. H. Weeks, who died at 945 Valencia street, in this city, last Saturday. In accordance with her wishes the body was sent to her old ome in Nevada, where the interment took place on Tuesday. The bereaved husband, W. H. Weeks, W. P. Rogers, the dead woman's brother, who came from Grass Valley, and Mrs. 1. S. Hobbs of 305A Bartlett street of this city, a niece of the de- ceased, made up the party from here which accompanied the bodyto Nevada. Yesterday the mourners prepared to return to this city, but before doing so Weeks and Rogers got into some trouble and before they were sepa- rated Weeks threatened to kill Rogers the first chance he got. Rogers became alarmed and had Weeks arrested and searched; a revolver was taken from him and then, as it was deemed that he could provoke no further trouble, he was allowed to proceed on his way. Exulting in his security, Rogers pro- ceeded to imbibe freely and then too freely, and before he had reached Col- fax he was becoming belligerent. From Colfax to Sacramento he spent his time in trying to persuade the conductor and the Pullman porter to lend him a revolver, or if they could not do that to take time to get off and buy him one. Thev refused, however, and then Rogers went to his seat and nursed his wrath until the train passed Port Costa. By that time he had made up his mind to do something, so he drew “Thank God, it was no worse. capes a man ever had.” Harry Kirchner uttered this fervent expression of gratitude yester- day as he lay on a bed of pain at the Lane Hospital, Webster and Clay streets. of the vat. ance possible.

A number of friends and fellow-teachers of the late Miss Kate Macdonald met in the Franklin Grammar School, of which Miss Macdonald was formerly vice-prin- | cipal, Tuesday afternoon to express their regrets at her decease. The meeting was called by Richard D. Faulkner, principal of the school, who thought it but proper that some action should be taken on the death of one who had been In the department so many vears and who was so dear to all wit whom she came In contact.

The postal authorities have asked the police department to assist them in capturing a thief who has been stealing mail from various letter boxes. The man is provided with a key to the boxes, and operates between the hours of midnight and 6 o'clock in the morn- ing. Last Saturday night at least a half- | dozen boxes were opened and a number of valuable letters taken. The following night the thief worked | apparently without fear of detection as | he succeeded In stealing the mail from | | numerous boxes. One of the three letters which he| took contained a $10 bill.

Several nights ago a citizen who lives in the vicinity of Haight and Gough streets saw a well-dressed man in the act of opening a letter box near by.

Their Right to Exist Now Rests With the Supreme Court. The question as to whether or not the city of Sacramento is entitled to the pos- session of a Police Court as a part of its municipal government was argued at length yesterday in the Supreme Court. The question arose over the conviction of Andrew Sparks for some misdemeanor and his incarceration in the County Jail on service of a six months’ term of im- prisonment of the Sheriff. Elwood Bru- ner and S. R. Hart appeared for the peti- tioner, who sought relief by habeas cor- pus. Assistant District Attorney J. Childs and A. A. de Lingue, City Attorney, rep- resented the Sheriff. Attorney Bruner argued that Sacramento’s city charter of January 8, 18, provided for a judicial department invested in a_police court. The State constitution provides that a court can only be established by a bill passed through the Legislature, and un- der the constitution a charter’ 18 only 0 g - of the ed by co t resolution o e 5 St o In‘c‘;,;ri’:ltqlmi—)cc %‘fi:fi%fl‘fine,mof the city u} A Lettsr Is Received Stating the gl:x:esl:;\‘lgg. |stlg$$. l;enrr,; xg e myt L question was adopted ip this manner, and & ~ 2 fhe city's act in attempting to create a Determination of the.Goy human being besides himself on the en G v tire coral reef of Clipperton.

To this Mr. Bruner re- g,lled that section 103 of the Code of Civil rocedure, providing for a city Justice | of the Peace, is unconstitutional, because the classification attempted to be made does not conform to the general classifi- cation act of 1883, which classifies all cities of the State according to their population. In support of this two cases of recent decision were cited. One was that of Darcy vs. the Mayor of San Jose, and the other was ex-parte Giamboni The representatives of the city of Sacra- mento set up the claim that if it should be held that the provisions of the charter be invalid, the old charter of 183 must then still exist. If it should happen that the petitioner be successful and his release be ordered by the Supreme Court, the city of Sacra- mento will find itself in a peculiar posi- tion. Its criminal business will have to be done by the township Justice of the Peace until the city authorities can take steps to have the next Legislature amend its charter and remedy the defect. The Supreme Justices took the matter under advisement. —_—————— Estates in Probate. The will of Isaac Lowenstein, who died on February 25, was filed for probate yes- terday.
