8 HUMOUS OF THE POLICE. Kissing a Brother Officer’s Wife Under the Lamp Post—Sergeant Thompsons ILod esty Shocked-A Case in which the Officer is Double 11 Banked’’-The Inner Life— Was it a Put Up Job on Smith ?-An Officer Piping a Roundsman and the Re sult. Queer Developments-Extra Duty- Left His Pest to do Clubbing-Pretty Good Whisky—Drunk on Powders. STREET KISSING BY A COPPER.” There were three charges against Keveland, of the Twenty-ninth Precinct. He was detailed to go to the theatre and was late. Again he was absent from post without getting his side partner to cover it. But the third charge was a “fixer,” standing in company with two females in the street and hugging and kissing one of them. Sergeant Westervelt said the charge was correct. The officer said it “ wasn’t.” One of these women was the wife of a policeman, and she asked if he had seen him. He didn’t know him. They said it was his night off. •• Never mind all that,” broke in Com. Mason. •'I want to know whether you were in conversation *nd in company with two females, hugging and kissing one of the females?” “ I deny it in toto,” said the officer. “ Going over the officer’s post,” said the sergeant, from “ Fourth to Seventh avenue, I was suddenly woke up by a smack. Then I came across the officer, having his arm around this woman, hugging and kissing her. I was within a few leet of him, and it was the smack I heard attracted my atten tion. I stood fifteen minutes looking at them and he had his arm around her neck. They stood in that position.” The sergeant illustrated it by throwing his arm around Keveland’s neck and squeezing himself up to him. The illustration raised roars of laughter, and re marks from the other peelers, “ Don’t yer wish ye was there ?” “They were in that position a few seconds,” con tinued the sergeant, " and didn’t move till the sec ond woman called his attention to my presence.” “ How close were you ?” ‘•As close as now.” •• Then they must have been intensely engaged,” remarked Com. Mason smiling, “There is no mis take about it ? .You are sure he had both arms around her in the way you have shown us ? There is no mistake about it ?” said the Commissioner bitching in his seat. •• No, sir; he was so much engaged he did not see me,” “Fifteen minutes and no mistake about the bug?” “ No mistake,” said the sergeant.” “ I never hugged or kissed a woman in my life,’’ said the officer amid roars of laughter, “ much less another man’s wife,” (renewed merriment.) “I have one at home.” “O,”“O,”was the response of fifty “peelers ” who were called to order by the imitation bung starter of the Commissioner. “ I am bound to believe what the sergeant says,” said Com. Mason. “ And that is the worst feature in it, that you deny it. Put the bible down (the ©fficer was kissing it). I’ll refer this case to the Board,” said Com. Mason. “They may want to read the testimony.” NOT SO. “Off post in a lager beer saloon in Franklin street,” was the charge against Harper of the Sixth Precinct. The officer said it was the only place he could go to. It was a business street. He was there seven or eight minutes. The sergeant said there were plenty of places in Leonard and Centre streets. Beside, he was fifty feet off post. OH! “Absent from the polling place without leave,” was the first charge against Early. He had to leave, and was gone about nine minutes. “What do you say to the other charge ? When ordered to report at the station-house, you said to him ‘report my ’ ” “ He charged me with being intoxicated.” “Did you make use of that expression?” “ No, sir.” “A citizen came to the station-house, and said there was likely to be a breach of the peace at the polling place,” said Sergeant Thompson. “The captain told me to take four men and go around. I only lound one officer in the polling place. Early was one of the three men detailed there. The offi cer said Early had gone to the water closet. I re mained till he returned. When he came back his face was flushed, and eyes red, and I told him to report at the station-house. He refused to go, and said I must go with him. I told him again to re port to Sergeant Ryan. He said in a disrespectful way, *Oh, report my ’ I then said he was there in disobedience of orders. At the station house I charged him with being under the in fluence of liquor.” “When you ordered me to the station-house didn’t you say I was drunk ?” asked the officer. “Not at all.” “You ordered me to the station-house, sergeant, and I said I would like to have you go with me ?” •• Yes, sir.” “Then you asked again if I refused to obey in structions ?” “Yes, sir. But you said you wouldn’t go unless I went with you.” Officer Moore said when Early was told to report at the station-house for other duty he said, “ Other duty my ” The officer swore that he did not make use of the language charged in the specification. OFFICER TIMING ROUNDS. AND ROUNDS TIM ING OFFICER. Officer Bailey and Roundsman Joyce were charged by Officer Moore with being off post, in Baldwin’s clothing store. Moore timed the roundsman after he came out of the store fifteen minutes talking to a citizen. Bailey went in the store on a case of necessity. Joyce went in to see if the excuse was genuine. He came out and talked to a citizen, and saw Moore timing him. He then commenced to time Moore for loitering on his post, and had him the fifteen minutes that the officer bad him. “You thought it your duty to stand and time the roundsman who was timing you standing ?” said Com. Mason. “Yes, sir.” •‘Roundsman, what have you to say ?” •'I came along about seven o’clock. In the first place I saw this officer at Hester and Mulberry streets. Ho was in conversation with a citizen. I asked if he couldn’t get along without the citizen. He said I was often in conversation with citizens. I said I did not want any of his insolence. ‘ Well,’ he said, • I’ll get square with you.’ I then went to Bailey’s post, and passing Baldwin’s store saw him come out. I asked what he was doing there. After I came out I found Moore was timing me, and I timed him fifteen minutes.” “ The question is were you justified in timing the roundsman ?” said Com. Mason. “I would not ad vise you to time roundmen, attend to your duty. You can prefer charges, but don’t neglect your duty.” The second charge preferred by Moore against his roundsman was entering Baldwin’s store, leaving his post, such leaving not being necessary, and that he refused to respond.to a call rap that Moore made, and when a message boy went to him he gave him no answer. “ What do you say to that, roundsman ?” asked the Commissioner. “ When I found he was on the cornor timing me, he sent this message boy who asked me to go and speak to the officer. I askedSthe boy if he had a book or had been sent from the office. He said no. I did not recognize the boy. Then to spoil his game, I stood ten minutes timing him. When I was in Baldwin’s to ascertain if Bailey was telling the truth, Moore looked through the window and saw us.” The messenger boy when called said he was sent by Moore across the street to tell Joyce the officer ■wanted to see him. The roundsman asked if he came from the officer. No. Was he paid for his message. He was then told to mind his own busi ness. Sergeant Ryan saw Moore standing on the corner. He said he was timing Joyce who stood outside of Baldwin’s store. He went over and Joyce told him he was timing Moore. The Commissioner said ho had heard enough of that case. A QUEER CASE. Bernard Smith, of the Twenty-ninth Precinct, was timed in the alleged house of prostitution, No. 101 West Fifteenth street, from 8:55, to 9:41 P. M., so the charge read, preferred by Sergeant Cross. “We will take up the first specification,” said Com. Mason. "In the house of prostitution, No. 101 West Fifteenth street, from 8:55 to 9:41, October 30.” “ I saw the officer enter this house at 8:55 and timed him. To be certain of his being in the house I passed the place both on that side and the op posite, and during that time he remained in the house till 9:41. Previous to coming out a telegraph boy came and went in the house, and a few seconds, perhaps a minute, the telegraph boy and the officer came out and he caught the boy by the arm and pushed him in the house. Am positive of the time as I looked at my watch. He was forty-six minutes. Ex. Judge Curtis asked the sergeant if it was a legitimate purpose which called the officer in the house. He couldn’t say. “We come to the second specification,” said the Commissioner. “At 9:41 he came out of No. 101, caught the telegraph boy, apparently by force, and returned to the house with him and remained nine minutes longer.” “You don’t know what induced him or required him to go in ?” asked Mr. Curtis. “No.” “The third specification is,” said the Commis sioner, “that he was in No. 101 from 9;54 to 10 o’clock—six minutes more. It follows right along coming out at 9:41.” “The fourth charge is that he did not patrol his post from 7:30 to 10:35 o’clock.” “He was on that block the whole of that time, and neglected to patrol from Seventh avenue to Fourth avenue during that period.” “How do you know?” “He was in my view. He was three hours and thirty-five minutes on that block. He came out of the house with a woman and then stood a minute; then he crossed the street and met a geutleman and stepped around to the south entrance of the West Side Hotel, where he saw the roundsman. He was there fifteen minutes and crossed back and re mained on that portion of the block till 10:35.” Captain Williams said he asked the officer next day if there had been any trouble on his post. He said no. He said at half-past ten o'clock he was called off post, but it didn’t take half a minute. John Mullet, a district telegraph messenger boy, said he received a call from No. 101 West Fifteenth street. These houses are connected with the tele graph. They wanted a policeman. He saw Smith there. He went up stairs and saw two ladies, and they said, “ Get an officer.” He went down stairs and got Smith, who was at the door. He went up and they said, “Not that officer.” He went out and the officer came alter him. It was 9:30 when he left the telegraph office; got there 9:35, and left at a quarter to 10 o’clock. Agnes Miller said she was a dressmaker at No. 101, with the lady of the house. She had lived there six months. The night of the 30th, a girl in the house rang up a call for a messenger boy. The boy came, went out, and brought this officer in. When she saw Smith, the woman ran in her room and locked the door. Rose Warren said she had lived four weeks with her husband, who was on the road as a traveling salesman. The officer came in the house with the messenger boy to collect his fifteen cents. Martha Edgerton, the mistress of the house, said she had lived in it two years. At the time the mes senger boy was sent for she was sick a bod. There was no row in the house to justify an officer being sent for. Her house was not a* house of prostitu tion. She rented rooms to males and females. She had a doctor, two actors, an editor, and two ladies, one living with her husband. The ladies did not receive company unless friends, There was a girl— Sadie Dietz—there, the cause of ail this trouble. &lie wasn’t O. K» a_nd when ago found out her character she made her leave the house. Sadie rang up a call for a District Messenger boy, and cauea for an officer. A plot was made up by Sadie to rng up for an officer after they had induced Sin the house, and then get him broke. That was the talk in the house. She said the bouse was formerly of bad repute—it was hot how. The officer said the woman Sadie tried to put u£ ajob to break him. Ho had arrested her once Pur robbery, and had her fined recently $lO fi>* street soliciting. When Sadie saw him come up with the telegraph boy, she yelled “ Cheese it!” to her friend, and they ran in their room and locked the door. He denied ever having committed any immoral act in the house. He stayed around the house because he thought a crime had been committed. He did not know the general reputation of the house. Never heard any one say anything against it. The repu tation of the house was not good some time ago. Since Mrs. Edgerton had had it he knew nothing about it. She let furnished rooms. It appears that an anonymous letter had been sent to the station house, setting forth the fact that Smith was on the “free list” at No. 101 West Fif teenth street, and if “ piped” they would get the evidence. A “pipe” was put on him and the result was this examination. STEADY ON HIS PINS, BUT DRUNK. Mayforth, of the Tenth Precinct, was seen un dressed at the open window of the sleeping-room for a few minutes, but the chargs against him was hardly legally traced to him. A more serious charge (intoxication) was made. Captain Allaire said the officer came to the station house the 17th of October when he should havo been home. He asked him what he wanted. The officer was in such a condition he could not explain what he was driving at and the captain ordered him in the back room and sent for the police surgeon. The man walked steady enough, but his mind was terribly muddled. He left it to the sergeant to smell the man’s breath. Sergeant Creeden said he noticed nothing wrong at roll-call, but when he came back in half an hour the officer couldn’t speak plain. He wanted to see the captain. The sergeant smelled liquor on him. At 6:20 at roll-call be saw nothing wrong, but when he returned at- 7 o’clock the officer was fuddled. Dr. Lyons said when he examined the man he was conscious, but was not entirely sober. Mayforth said one glass of brandy did it all. NOT GROSSLY INTOXICATED. Holding, of the Sixth Precinct, was sent up as re serve to a Blaine meeting at the Academy of Music. After he had been there two hours Captain Clinchy ran across him and, finding him under the influence of liquor, sent him to the station house. The man was not grossly intoxicated, but he was unfit to he oa duty. He staggered a little; his speech was thick aud incoherent. Roundsman Reid said the man staggered a little on the way to the station-house. The officer said he had been to the country to see his wife, took three beers and a whisky before go ing on duty, that was all, but that extra duty wore him out. On duty he took no liquor. A FRESH OFFICER. There were three charges against McCann, of the Sixth Precinct. Absent irom roll call; he overslept himself. In Earle’s Hotel smoking; he said he pi loted an intoxicated gentleman to the hotel—the gentleman dropped his cigar and he merely picked it up. The third charge was absent from post.. He said he was alter a burglar. Did he arrest him ? Yes. The roundsman said, “ No.” “ Well,” said McCann, “ I was with the officer that arrested him.” The officer said when he found McCann off post he asked what he was doing there. He replied that he saw some fresh fellows across the street and he event over to warm them. ONE GLASS DID IT. Kelly, of the Fourteenth Precinct, was sent down to the City Hall to do duty in Printing House Square. He was given an hour for dinner, and re turned intoxicated. Captain Steers sent him in the back room till he sobered up. When asked where he got hie rum, he said he paid for it. He said he took but one drink, to wash down his dinner. “That was pretty good whisky,” remarked Com. Matthews. “I took it straight.” “It must have been big enough to make three or four drinks.” “Oh, no I” COULDN’T SMELL WHISKY FOR CLOVES. Intoxication was the charge against Doolan, of the Eighteenth Precinct. “ Correct,” said Capt. Clinchy, when the charge was read. “He had a night off the night previous. When he came in at 8:30, I asked what was the matter. I noticed then he was under the influence of liquor, and smelled his breath. It was cloves. Then be reported sick. I asked him what made him late. He said his landlady forgot to wake him. He staggered slightly. I sent for the police surgeon. The man was incoherent in his talk, I couldn’t get anything out of him. I did not con sider him fit for duty. He reported sick, but the doctor when he came ordered him on post when he got sober.” The officer said on the way to the station-house he felt sick, and went into a drug store and got some powders, made up on a prescription given him by a doctor that he met in the street. He was really sick, not shamming. Nor was he under the influence of liquor. So he said. GEN. FITZ JOHN PORTER. General Fitz John Porter succeeded Sidney P, Nichols, deceased, as Police Commissioner about a month ago. The general has been present at the trials since then, but has taken no part in them beyond being a close observer. This speaks well for the men and the department* He does not rush uninformed to deal with civilians as he would with enlisted men in a service that they cannct leave. This was the mistake Gen. Smith made. The police man can,resign if he doesn’t like it,but he shouldn’t be hounded out of the Department by men that may by political preferment, not by worth, be his superiors. Com. Porter appears to recognize the distinction between the policeman and the soldier, the volun tary and the forced servitude. He knows that a soldier can re-enlist; a policeman dismissed, can not. From all the indications, Gen. Porter, while he will have discipline and the proper performance of duty, he will not slaughter a man for a trivial of fense, and on the other hand fine for an offense which should dismiss from the Department. The appearance of the man indicates that, like Mr. Acton, he will try to elevate the Department, and make the men understand that they are think ing, responsible beings; that he will not do as Mr. Erhardt did, demoralize the force, “break” for trivial offenses, fine unmercifully, make of the men spies on each other, and finally make his severity in the way of fines, the oath of a policeman a mere form, without moral or legal binding. The other Commissioners, Matthews, Mason and French, like honesty and truth; if Gen. Porter is in the same way inclined, we are likely to have some faith in the word of an officer, when swearing in his own behalf, and in the police court against his prisoner. BROOKLYN POLICE MATTERS A WORTHY ROUNDSMAN GOES WRONG—FAIL ING TO DISCOVER A BURGLARY—AN OFFI CER PERSISTENTLY REFUSES TO PAY HIS DEBTS—FOUND LYING DRUNK ON THE SIDE WALK — TWO UNOFFENDING CITIZENS CLUBBED—YOU CANNOT SERVE TWO MAS TERS-MINOR OFFENSES. Roundsman Owens, oi the Eighth Precinct, was charged with conduct unbecoming an officer. The offense committed was a very grave one, as it was claimed that he entered a private dwelling, while intoxicated, and took liberties with a woman who was at the time in a delicate condition. The details of the affair would not bear publication. The de fense was a positive denial. Guilty. Sentence, dismissal. NEGLECT OF DUTY. O’Connell, of the Ninth Precinct, was charged with neglect of duty, fn failing to discover a bur glary committed on his post on the night of Octo ber 26th last. The Commissioner decided, owing to the peculiar circumstances oi this case, to be lenient. Sentence, reprimand. DON’T PAY HIS DEBTS. Degnan, of the Ninth Precinct, has persistently refused to pay, to a woman, what has been declared to be a just debt. The Commissioner, not approving of such con duct in an officer, after summing up the evidence, ordered Degnan’s suspension. INTOXICATED. O’Brien, of the Ninth Sub-Precinct, returned from a tour of patrol on the Bth inst. intoxicated and un fit for duty. Subsequently, at midnight of that date, he was found lying upon the sidewalk on Broadway, near Gates avenue, grossly intoxicated. No extenuating circumstances. Dismissed. CLUBBING PUNISHED. McEntee, of the Eleventh Precinct, left his post and was found in the hallway of a liquor store. He was, in this case, simply reprimanded. On the night of Nov. 13th, it was claimed that this officer brutally assaulted a man and boy, using his club. The affair occurred on Ninth, near Court street. Guilty. Sentence: Loss of ten days’ pay. A FLIMSY DEFENSE. of the Thirteenth Precinct claims that the cigar manufactory carried on under license ob tained in his name, is owned by his son. The latter is a minor, it is said, and the defense was declared to be rather flimsy. No member of the force is per mitted under existing regulations to engage in any business other than that of a policeman. Sentence, suspension. “ You cannot serve two masters.” grimly remark ed the veteran “copper” as he left the room. TWO CHARGES. If Dickermau, of the Thirteenth Precinct, had not entered a grocery store at the moment he did, it is possible that he might have observed the awning being erected upon his post. As he did enter the grocery store, aud failed to report the awning, he was reprimanded on the first specification, and sen tenced to the loss of one day’s pay on the second. NEGLECT OF DUTY AND INTOXICATION. Buchanan, of the Ninth Sub-Precinct, was charged with neglect of duty and intoxication. Guilty. Reprimanded. Cloonan, of the Ninth Sub-Precinct, though charged with the same offenses as Buchanan, did not get off so lightly. Guilty. Loss of five days’ pay. ABSENT WITHOUT LEAVE. Miller, of the Eighth Sub-Precinct, for being ab sent without leave, was found guilty aud sentenced to loss of one day’s pay. INSOLENCE. Harrigan, of the Fourth Precinct, allowed his pas sion to overcome his judgment, and when repri manded by his superior officer for improperly pa trolling his post, he became insolent. Subsequent ly Harrigan permitted himself to be improperly re lieved. Finding, in both charges, guilty. Sentence for first offense, loss of two days’ pay, and for the second, fined one day’s pay. Bourke, of the Third Sub-Precinct, for being ab sent without leave, was found guilty and sentenced to loss one day’s pay. Hanly, of the Second Precinct, absent without leave and leaving the station without permission. Guilty. Fined one day’s pay. Alimony.—lt is the custom in the po lice courts, when a man is arrested on the charge of abandonment, to compel the husband to give one-third of his pay. That is not always just. Take for instance Ja case '.before Justice Duffy yester day at the Tombs. Man and wife were young. He abandoned his wife, they couldn’t hitch together. She bad thrown on her hands a child five years, and another two years old. The court decreed that he sjmnld pay $5 a week for the children aud wife. TbWrban’s income was sls a week.

A TOMBSTONE-MAKER tSe co-respondent -1 CEMETERY THE PLACE OK ALLEGED C' Horace W. Barton sues bis wife ref 9S t '-v cnarge of adultery, a ffian named Catlol -BQ3-, among other places in Woodlawn Cemetery. The case is very complicated, and has been in the court for a long time, under various phases. Barton, Who is a clerk on a salary of SI,BOO a year, was married in 1871. They had one child, a boy, named Percy. Catterson, the co-respondent, is a manufacturer of tombstones at Woodlawn Cemetery. He was an in timate friend of the Bartons, and the husband after a while became suspicious of him and his wife. After befobming jealous of his wife, he treated her with neglect and cruelty, it is alleged, which led her to enter a suit against her husband for a separa tion. Thereupon Mr. Barton commenced a cross-suit against his wife, charging infidelity, and had a habeas corpus issued for the possession of his child. The child was put in an institution at Rye, but ran away, footed it to New York, sold his jackknife for three cents, and got the price of the ferry to take him over to New Jersey, where he took refuge with an aunt. The mother was called up for contempt of court, in aiding the escape of her son from the State. These proceedings are still pending; she refused to go to New Jersey and bring her child over here and deliver him up to the Catholic Protectory, she being Protestant. On the heels of this habeas corpus proceeding, Mr. Barton commenced an action lor divorce against his wife, while her action for cruelty and abandonment was still pending. By the advice of her counsel she went to Green wich, Conn., where her husband lived, went to his hotel, took possession of his rooms, and demanded that she should be supported. He cleared out, and in two weeks her funds gave out, and she had to return to the city. When she commenced the action for abandon ment, he started the action for adultery. During the thirteen years of their married life, he charges her with 21 acts of adultery. But he was not specific in his charges, and a mo tion last week was made by Goo. F. Langbein be fore Judge Barrett to compel Mr. Barton to confine himself to one or two of the allegations. Choose which they pleased. One act was sufficient to ob tain a divorce. They wanted to know the time and place alleged to meet it and settle the issues before going before a jury. If one fact were proven it would be as good as a hundred. It was not neces sary to prove repeated acts. She denied that she had ever entered a vault in Woodlawn Cemetery with Mr. Catterson, or any other person; or that she had ever been at the house No. 403 Lexington avenue, with him, or at Central Park,with him or any other person. The time gone over was three years in the past, but neither day of the month, or day of the week was specified, so that they could meet it by proving the falsity of the charge. “Do you want to try all these twenty-one charges?” asked Judge Barrett. “Yes, sir,” replied Mr. Quinlan. “ Can’t you select three or four that you imagine you can prove, and reduce the issue to something reasonable ?” asked his honor. Counsel didn’t think he should be so confined. The court said on his theory a thousand charges could be made, when one would be sufficient to send to the jury. A number of the charges were very indefinite, March ’7B, Woodlawn Cemetery, and so on with other charges. There ought to be a certain degree of reasonableness in the dates, the court thought. Mr. Langbein said the acts and the dates were purely imaginary, and urged the right of dates being given. It was a long time ago, and that was a greater reason that the dates should be given. In taking the papers Judge Barrett seemed to be of the same opinion. Mr. Barton has commenced a suit against Mr. Catterson for $20,000 damages on the charge of aleniating the affections of his wife. In that suit his bill of particulars as regards dates, is as indefinite as In the suit for divorce from his wife. ea—MWU L'jrm.JUtBB&JR WCTTJJRfcffiWf iif HMM MW A Card.—To all who are suffering from errors and indiscretions of youth, nervous weakness, early decay, loss of manhood, &c., I will send a recipe that will cure you, FREE OF CHARGE.
