When it Was explained that the hospital people did not de- sire to have Mr. Mulcahey punished, but simply warned to stay away from the scene of his late conquest and sub- sequent disappointment, he was dis- missed, after he had informed the court that he was a profesional nurse and that the girl who had left him be- hind her was a chambermaid named Miss Crawford. So badly was his mind affected that he could not remember her baptismal cognomen. At least, that’s what he told the Judge. S R “Archdeacon” Jones, deeply colored of complexion and stunted of stature, did not deny that he had been drinking when a policeman arrested him in the tenderloin district, but he emphatically »d an allegation of peace disturb- “Am it possahbel, Jedge,” he asked his Honor Judge Cabaniss, “dat I'd try ter break intah jail an’ be dar when de Walcott-Dixie fight kums off ter-night?

The Judge asked the policeman if he would be re- sponsible for the defendant's reappear-, ance in court next Friday if he were allowed to go on his own recognizance, and the policeman nodded an affirma- tive. “Well, Archdeacon, I'll trust you to come back here without police assist- ance,” said his Homor, “but for the favor you must thank this officer—your Nemesis.” “T’ank yo', Mistah Memphis: t'ank {ty | ment. | guilty of embezzling $20 from his em- ¥o'. kindly,: sah,” " exclaimed “the’ de- lighted defendant.

His latest victim ‘was W. Jacobs of 231 Second street, who gave him $2 on a check for $20 drawn on the Anglo-Californian Bank and then discovered that Moffatt never had funds deposited in that Institu- tion. . Judge Conlan held Ng Ah Gong in $4000 bonds to answer two charges of burglary. Ng.made a specialty of breaking show windows of stores on Kearny street and abstracting there- from articles both portable and val- uable. Burke Bowman, a respectable look- ing fellow, pleaded guilty to the charge of obtaining money under false pretense and will be sentenced to-day by Judge Mogan. He worked off a worthless check on the California Ho- tel and it was brought out in testi- | mony that he operated a similar swin- | dle on the Hoffman cafe. | 75 g Lo | “What has this man done?"” asked Judge Cabaniss when John Beckman was set up before him on the charge | of petty larceny. ““He hooked a hook, your Honor,” | replied the complaining policeman. “What's that—he looped the loop the court igquired, with hand to ear.' “No, sir; he stole a hay hook from a store on Steuart street.” “Stole a hay hook, and he like a hayseed,” commented bench pleasantly.

Guillaime could not tell how it was, nor could the policeman who made the arrest. At the court's sug- gestion a charge of battery was sub- stituted by M. Guillaime and Private Rose was fined $5.

LYLE HIS ACCUSER Alleges That Coin Was Ob- * tained From Him Through Threats of Prosecution Thomas McCarthy, who was at one time a well-known insurance detective, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Detectives Bunner and Freel and locked up in “the tahks” pending further developments. Wittman and Captain Martin.say that a charge of extortion will probably be made against him. M. C. Lyle, who is employed at the Tivoli Opera-house, took pity upon Al Woods about four weeks ago and al- lowed him to stay in ‘his room at 320 Turk street for a few days, as Woods was hard up. Woods presented Lyle with a coat and vest for his kindness. Last Saturday Lyle went to live at 14 Mason street and yesterday morn- ing McCarthy, accompanied by Her- man Grote, who has a cigar stand at 7 Mason street, called at Lyle’s room and took the coat and vest which Woods had given Lyle. Grote says the coat and vest were stolen from him. Lyle alleges that McCarthy demand- ed $8 75 from him, which he said had been in the pocket of the coat stolen from Grote, otherwise Lyle might be prosecuted and get twenty years in San Quentin. McCarthy said he was a detective, and, Lyle being afraid of getting into trouble, gave McCarthy $2 76, all the money he had in his pockets. Lyle told a friend of his experience | and the friend advised him to consult | Captain Martin. He did so and De- tectives Bunner and Freel were sent with Lyle to find McCarthy. He was located in a saloon on Mason street and placed under arrest. The detec- tives are looking for Woods. Chief Wittman says he has had sev- eral complaints that men have ex- torted money by representing tHem- selves as detectives and he intends to ask that éin ordinance be passed plac- private detectives under the control of the Board of Police Com- missioners. + o e Wilson, expressman, pleaded ‘“‘short- ness of breath” as the cause of his falling from the seat of his wagon to the roadway, but the complaining policeman insisted that Mr. Wilson was “wobbly drunk” and unable to maintain a recumbent attitude. “Shortness of breath,” was his Honor Mogan’s admonitory comment, “is the cause of many deaths—indeed, there 1s no malady more fatal—and I would adviss you, Mr. Wilson, to abandon alcohol as a lubricant for the respiratory organs. Go home and try witch hazel.” . s H. C. Clark, who wa& one of the gunboat Bogota's dauntless crew, quarreled with his wife at their home on Eddy street, between Leavenworth and Hyde, night before last and then he assaulted Policeman “Jimmy" Cul- linan when that vigilant officer ar- rested him. The case will be heard by Judge Cabaniss on May 10. P e Herman J. Keiser is accused of sell- ing pools om a baseball game and Of- ficer Goffs claims to “have the goods on him.” Judge Mogan is analyzing the complaint. —_——— In the Government factories of Rus- sia wages rarely exceed $6 50 a month.
