BEFORE COMMISSIONER FRENCH.
THEY DID SOT SEE CLUBBING.
Citizen Charles H. Wilson, residing at No. 317 East
Eiity-ninth street, a mason, charged Sergeant Lin
den with striking him several blows on the head
;nd failing to arrest him. Mr. Wilson said this oc
curred on election afternoon. Alter watching the
scaffolding on a building fo see that it was not torn
down and made a bonfire of, he stepped .nto a drug
store to get a cholera mixture. He had just got it,
when the sergeant says, “What do you want ? what
arc you here for, anyhow?’’ and shoved him out.
“Where was this?’’
“Filty-ainth street and Third avenue. Then,
when he got me out, he beat me like a dog half a
dozen times. I went in alone. I never knew the
officer or spoke to him. Outside the store there was
a crowd, but I did not know the cause of it. I saw
Mr. Mead, the druggist, and his clerk and I think
there was somebody on the floor. I was thereabout
two minutes.”
Mr. Garret Mead, said he, was in the drug store
when Wilson entered. His janitor sent him to the
drug store to see it he could recognize the man that
was stabbed. The sergeant, as soon as he came in,
said, "Get out of here.” He pushed him (Wilson)
out and clubbed him.
" How many times did you come in the store?”
asked the sergeant.
••Once. You threw mo out, too.”
“ Didn’t I order you out ?”
•• Yes, sir; and at the same time you fired me out.
I did not refuse to go.”
The sergeant s.-.id there was a man in the drug
store who had a deep gash in the breast. He or
dered all out of the store, and sent foranambu.
lance.
Surgeon Shaw said he saw the sergeant shove Wil
son out.
Two officers swore they saw Wilson shoved out,
but did not see him clubbed.
A STENOGRAPHER LEARNS LONG HAND.
Thomas F. McGlynn, stenographer, residing at
No. 152 East Sixtieth street, charged Officer Jones,
of the Twenty-eighth Precinct, with clubbing him
and making a false charge after arresting him. The
officer is a recent appointment.
Mr. McGlynn said himself and his brother were
going down Third avenue. At Seventy-seventh
street they intended to go behind a pile of bricks,
but didn’t, although it was dark, seeing somebody
coming. The officer came up and said, “ Get along;
go in a saloon. The officer came behind him, and
pushed him a hundred feet. He told the officer they
were not doing anything wrong. The officer then
hauled off and hit him on the side of the head, and
Baid:
"G—d d—n you ! I’ll take you in anyhow 1” and
then tapped lor assistance.
He begged to be taken in a car, as he was in his
own neighborhood where he was known, and was
sick. The officer said:
“No; G—d d—n you; I’ll make a holy show of
yon I”
Joseph L. McGlynn said his brother’s statement
was entirely true. The officer kept abusing them
all the way, making a show of them, pushing and.
shoving them along like corner loafers.
Citizen Bernheimer said he saw the officer come
behind the young men and take hold of them,
turned them around and pushed them. Mr. Mc-
Glynn asked what he was doing that for. The
officer said, “Go on, go on.” They said they had
not done anything. Finally the officer pulled oil
his glove and hit these young men, and took them
to the station-house. At the station-house the
officer made the charge of indecent exposure. He
saw none, and he was close by them.
Sergeant Linden said the charge against one of
the brother’s was interfering with the officer, the
other drunk and disorderly and exposing his per
son. He was partly drunk. One of his friends said
they had four glasses of beer.
Mr. H. W. Benedict said they had three glasses of
beer during the afternoon, they were perfectly
aober.
The officer said when he came up to them and
asked them what they were doing, complainant
asked him what the his business was,
he could not make him go.
Mr. McGlynn said he never used profane language.
What the officer said was false.
ARRESTED AT SUPPER.
Salvino Torina, of No. 11l Mulberry street, said
while sitting at supper Officer Butterly came in and
arrested him, took him a short distance and de
manded fifty cents; but he did not get it, and then
released him.
The officer said his accuser kept a dive and sold
stale beer to other dives. This was Sunday even
ing. Seven or eight bootblacks were in Mulberry
street kicking empty tomato cans. He remonstrated
with them and they ran up this alley and he went
in this man’s house. He took him outside. After
taking him in the street he made up his mind he
was not one of the gang and let him go. He
never said a word about fifty cents.
JOYCE THINKS MAGIN A PERJURER.
Michael Joyce, a cripple, charged Officer Magin
with knocking him down in the liquor store at No.
IVO Broad street.
Michael said on the 18th ult., at 7:45 A. M., ho was
standing in this liquor saloon. Magin was in there
•with a man and the party asked him to have a
"smile.” There was another "round” asked for
and tbo barkeeper refused to give to Magin’s
friend. He said so, too, and Magin told him he
was no good. He said he was as good as the
officer. Then Magin said if it was not for the
barkeeper, he would put a head on him. He dared
him and was knocked down. When Magin heard
he was going to make a complaint, he said it was
■wrong to make a complaint against a friend.
Joyce told him it didn’t show friendship to knock a
man down in a bar-room. He then said he would
get square with him unless the complaint was
withdrawn.
"Didn’t you attempt to strike me with your
cane ?” said the officer.
“ No.”
The officer said he made a blow at him with his
cane, and he fell. They had some words; he was
Blurred, and ho told Joyce he needn’t wink behind
bis back. Everybody that knew Joyce knew he
was no good. Then he made a rap at him with his
cane, and he fell on the breadth of his back. He
never touched the man’s clothes in his life.
John Whitney, the bartender, said he stepped in
between them. Joyce lost his prop and fell. He
did not see him struck.
Joyce said both the officer and the barkeeper per
jured themselves. The barkeeper dare not tell the
truth or the officer’ would catch him violating the
Excise law.
HIS LAST DRINK.
Baker, of the Twenty-first Precinct, found in the
auditorium of the theatre, was ordered by Rounds
man Farley, outside. At first he refused, then left,
but acted in a boisterous manner. He said he sup
posed there was but one officer inside; there should
be two. The roundsman happened to be there and
ordered him out on the sidewalk. Beginning the
New Year he said he would try and commence with
a belter record.
"Was there any evidence that he had been drink
ing ?”
“ Yes, sir; he had been drinking to all appear
ances.”
••I have talked to you before about drinking,”
Baid the Commissioner.
“This will be the last drink,” said Baker.
" Baker again,” said the clerk. The charge was
failing to be found on post.
He said he was in Bellevue Hospital—it was the
only place he could go to.
SITTING ON A RAIL.
Balky was off his post, on a railroad platform, sit
ting on a rail. He said he was called up by the gate
man to put a man out who was under the influence
of liquor.
" What has that to do with sitting ?”
"I was only leaning.”
"His feet were six inches from the ground,” said
tthe roundsman.
" There’s a great deal of trouble up there,” said
ibe officer.
"Sit down alter duty,” remarked the Commis
sioner.
THE BLOW JUSTIFIED.
Level, of .the Twelfth Precinct, struck A prisoner
while itaking .him to the station-house. Captain
Hooker «aid the officer made the statement himself.
The man arrested was a thief.
The officer said ho arrested the man for highway
robbery. If he hadn’t used his club he would have
got hurt himself.
WON’T FEEL WELL PAY DAY.
Gibson,-of the Eighth Precinct, admitted being in
a liquor-saloon, corner of Grand and Wooster sts.
Trying the door, he found it open and the lights
turned down. He rapped, and the man camo from
the water-closet.
The roundsman said .he saw the officer walk up to
the place and go in. He crossed the street and called
him out-
" What did,he say ?*’
” I asked what he was doing in there. He said he
did not feel very good and came out.”
“ Why did you make the remark that you did not
feel very well ?” ,
“ I don’t know.”
WHY LATE AT ROLL-CALL.
Bradley, of the Eighteenth Precinct, was absent
from return roll-call at 12:20. ‘
He said it was occasioned by being on police duty. '
Going to his relieving point at 12 o’clock, a lady
came up to him and said he was wanted at No. 419 ;
East Seventeenth street. As he entered the room
he asked what was the matter. She said a boaa’der
camo in drunk, and broke doors, windows and
struck her. When the boarder heard the officer
coming he escaped. He searched the hall and yard ]
for him. Then he went to his relieving point.
“He made a statement that he had been in the 1
same house at 11 o'clock,” said the sergeant.
*• I was there twic<” said the officer. " But then 1
I saw no breach of the peace.” 1
Two old ladies corroborated his statement. t
HIS SUSPENDERS "BURST.” (
Found in the United States Hotel, Kane said his »
suspenders burst, and he went in to fix them.
“He told me he went in to get a drink of water ” I
fiaid.Uie roundsman.
SEVEN TIMES OVER THE POST.
The roundsman went seven time over Seymour’s
post before he found him.
He said he was taken Bick with chills.
“ A robust fellow like you just started as a police
man,” remarked the Commissioner.
The Parent of Insomnia. —The parent 1

THE DEPARTMENT LAST YEAR.
In his Annual Message to the Common Council
on Monday last, in referring to our noble Depart
ment, Mayor Grace said:
“ The" early part of the year was exceptionally
notable for the increase both in the number of fires
and in the average estimated loss per fire. Thus,
for the first three mouths of the year the number
of fires was 731, and the average loss $2,542. The
average of loss per fire, however, tor the remainder
of the year is less, being for the remaining nine
months but $1,119 per fire; while for the year
through it has been $1,546.06, comparing favorably
with previous years, and demonstrating the marked
efficiency of the department.
"The Probationary School of Instruction and the
Life-Saving Corps still form admirable features of
the Department, and the advantages which the
schools afford have been availed of not only by ap
plicants for but by a largo number of
the officers and men already in the service. The
force comprises a total membership of 927, of which
448, or more than one-half, have received certificates
from the school.”
HONEY.
At the Headquarters of the Metropolitan Fire
Brigade in Loudon, recently, a singular discovery
of honey was made.
Upon a fire being lighted in a room where there
bad not been one for several months, the chimney
was found to smoke, and upon a fireman putting
hia arm up the chimney to ascertain the cause, he
found an old shirt, in which a large swarm of bees
had evidently hived. There was a flue mass of
honey, but the bees had gone.
THE DEPARTMENT’S WIRES.
Since Broadway has been lighted up by electrici
ty, the globes have all been removed from the old
lamposts, leaving the posts still standing, and on
Broadway between the Battery and Fifty-ninth
streets there are almost three hundred lampposts
which are not used for any purpose, and the Board
of Fire Commissioners has begun to utilize them
to hold the fire-alarm boxes. The main body of the
lamppost is cut off about eight inches from the
bulge, or foot-piece, aud a three-sided yoke is inser
ted aud leaded on top aud bottom. In the yoke
there is placed one of the “Warren” patent fire
alarm, keyless, boxes, a full description of which has
been published heretofore in the Dispatch.
The wires that convey the alarm are patent non- j
inductive ones with lead-covered wires, which are
carried down the stem of the lamppost and con
nected with the main wires in the conduits of the
New York Electrical Company.
If, in the course of time this experiment is found
fo be practicable and useful the improvement will
be extended to other streets where the electric light
has taken the place of the yellow, sickly gas lights.
FIREMAN WILLIAM E. MILLER’S DEATH.
Fireman Wm. E. Miller, of Engine Company No.
40, was buried from his late residence, No. 461 West
Sixty-second street, on Wednesday afternoon, and
his remains were accompanied to the ferry by the
usual department escort.
THE BALL OF THE VOLUNTEER FIREMENS’
ASSOCIATION
was a great success, both in attendance as well as
in a financial aspect. The decorations were in har
mony with the surroundings, and were remarkable
for their appropriateness. It was a magnificent
sight which met the beholder upon entering the
ball room. Suspended from the arch was a large
floral badge, sixteen feet in bight, with the words,
“Volunteer Firemens’ Association ” worked in co
lors. Behind, and at the rear of the stage, was sus
pended a large drop curtain representing a fire
scene, and in the foreground stood old Jefferson
Engine No. 26, formerly in use in this city, which
was presented to the association by Mr. Thomas E.
Tripier, one of her old members. Next was the
Steinway Hose Carriage, of Long Island City, a
splendid specimen of workmanship. She was ac
companied by the following delegation: Wm. H. De
lehanty, Foreman; C. H. Smith, Assistant Fore
man; P. C. Horn and Max C. Burger, Secretaries,
with Louis Hess aud Joseph Donohue as a Com
mittee.
There were also present Assistant Engineer R.
Nevins, W. McKinnie, K. Smith, and W. Mason of
the same city. The old goose nock engine that was
used by the Association on the occasion of the
parade at the Centennial Celebration, was also there
by the kind permission of the New York E ire Com
missioners. New Haven was represented by Messrs.
Thomas E. Twitchell, Charles Doty, Charles N.
Johnston, Wm. O. Higgins. Edward D. Smith, John
H. Pardee, Joseph Cunningham, Charles Hatfield,
and Secretary Albert R. Goodnow. The Chief Engi
neer of Long Branch was accompanied by his assis
tants—Dewitt, and Archibald Neming. Chief Engi
neer Thomas, and assistants of Now London, Conn.,
cavorted around in the Virginia Reel with a party of
friends, among whom may be mentioned Thomas E.
Tripier and son. Chief Engineer Layburn, of Hobo
ken, was the especial guest of Vice President Brice,
and the Slaight families. Marshal Crane looked af
ter the Philadelphia, Patterson, Newark, Jersey
City, West Hoboken, Jamaica, Haverstraw and
Brooklyn delegations, while Messrs. Dalton, Dailey,
Corcoran, Hallen, and McCollough, done the right
thing by the firemen from Whitestone, Newburg,
Sing Sing, and the numerous chiefs and assistants
who were present from almost every city and town
within a radius of one hundred miles of New York.
The reception committee were untiring in their
efforts to promote the comfort of their numerous
guests and did their utmost under the circumstan
ces.
It is a matter of regret, however, that in a city
like New York, that such a condition of affairs
exists. It is only those who are posted that can
realize it. The committee in charge were restricted
in their movements. It were idle to discuss it.*
Here was a ball given for a charitable purpose; ev
erything was supposed to be working in harmony;
assurances had been given that no interference
would be met with on the part of the authorities,
and relying upon these assurances, the committee
had made their arrangements, and at the last mo
ment thefcquestion of a license was raised. The
matter was again gone over, and notwithstanding
the idea of a partnership was thought to have been
settled, an order was given just before the opening
Of the ball that the bar should be closed at 1 A. M.
which was done, resulting in a loss of several hun
dred dollars to the sick and distressed fund.
The committee in charge of the ball of last year,
given at the same house, were more fortunate’.
They received for the house privileges the sum of
$1,650, and were not hampered by any opposition. «
This year, through a combination, the committee
were unable to secure an offer for half that sum.
They therefore concluded to run it themselves in
the interest of the organization, but, as was said
above, the partnership question was raised, in or
der to overcome the question of a license—the
house having one conveniently at hand—and the
partnership plan was rejected by the committee, <
the result being that at a later hour an order came J
from the police to close the bar at 1 A. M. Now, -
the question that the members ask among them- t
selves is: Why should a charitable organization, i
numbering upward of 2,000 members, be selected <
for such treatment? Was it because they are a 1
poor, old, played-out body of firemen, that don't die 1
off quick enough ? Are they looked upon, as are the -
survivors of the war of 1812—only a butt, that the
unthinking may ridicule?
Much could, or should be written upon the sub- -
ject, but it will keep without being put on ice. i

NEW YORK DISPATCH, JANUARY 10, 1886.
Law is to be enforced at balls in this city hereafter.
Shall it be upon the partnership plan, especially at
the above house? We will watch, wait, and see, but
[we would advise all those contemplating the giving
of a ball this Winter at the above place to be sure
[ and see the principal instead of the agent, as we
were so kindly informed by the former that we
should have done. Bosh, did you take us for mere
r boys? We submitted and that satisfied—the law.
. We got legal treatment, next. Oue thing, how
j ever, wo would advise the Volunteer Firemens’
t Association to do, get a building of your own—you
are strong enough—hold your balls in it. Don’t
violate the law, or take a partner; lock your doors
and enjoy yourselves. The Gibbs Committee has
‘ adjourned.
t BROOKLYN^FIRE NOTES.
1 CHANGES—PROMOTIONS—TRANSFERS—GOSSIP.
The anticipated change in the office of Fire Com
missioner was declared on Wednesday last, much to
the chagrin of respectable Democrats throughout
the Department. The reporter, during his rambles
among the fire laddies for the entire week past, has
been repeatedly assured of the satisfaction felt by
every member of the force with the administration
of Commissioner Poillon. Much has been said by
outsiders regarding the action taken by Major Poil
lon in attempting to have a transfer made to the
Fire Department of the office of Fire Marshal. The
Dispatch has, through the medium of this column,
and in the public interest, repeatedly urged the
granting of the transfer mentioned. There does
not appear to be any reason for objection on the
part of Marshal Thorne as to the proposed transfer
ring of his office from the Police to the Fire Depart
ment. a It is evident that the suggestion of Commis
sioner* Poillon regarding this matter was au excel
lent one, and solely intended for the public good.
It remains to be seen whether the newiy-appoint
ed Fire Commissioner will endeavor to perfect the
internal arrangement of his department as consci
entiously aud as satisfactorily as has his predeces
sor. Deputy Commissioner Moore will retain his
present position, although changes in the clerical
department will be insisted upon. McCann, of En
gine No. 7, is wire-pulling for the position of Super
intendent of Combustibles. Ketch was always anx
ious to avoid fire duty, and as he has been long
enough in the department, it is suggested that he
be retired or given the position of white mouse at
these headquarters.
Ono delegate from each of the various companies
throughout the department was granted a leave of
absence on Monday last to enable them to attend a
meeting of the Brooklyn Paid Eire Department Re
lief Association.
At roll call it was learned that representatives
from Engines Nos. 21 and 8 and Trucks Nos. 1 and 4
were not present. Each of the representatives pres
ent was duly instructed to voice the opinion of
their entire company regarding the disputed ques
tion as to whether the heirs of deceased members
be entitled to benefits.
Upon motion, a ballot was taken, resulting in 159
votes being east in favor of eliminating from the
proposed by-laws the clause providing for death
benefits.
President Donnelly and Secretary Beith are both
sanguine of success in the present undertaking,
although it is believed by the thinking members of
the force that the exclusion oi death benefits will
retard the' progress of the new organization. Tbo
Financial Secretary’s report shows a balance of SSO.
Further assessments will be exacted from members,
in order to provide by-laws, which will be at once
forwarded to members of the association.
The claims of Firemen Berdau, Flaherty and
Langdon were compromised, despite the recent de
cision of Judge Cullen, who declared that Lawyer
Valentine was not entitled to any portion of the
money wrested from the city treasury* Riley, of
Engine Co. No. 6, is still disputing the lawyer’s
claim for services rendered.
James Benson, fireman, of Engine Co. No. 3, died
at 2:25 o’clock on the 2d iust., of pneumonia, con
tracted while in the performance of his duty. De
ceased had been for some time detailed as driver to
Chief Nevins, aud was highly respected throughout
the department. His funeral, on Tuesday last,
took place from his late residence, President street,
near Columbia, and was largely attended. A detail
of one man from each company reported to Captain
Duff, and assisted in escorting the remains of Ben
son to Holy Cross Cemetery. District Engineer
Dale took charge oi the detail. The floral contribu
tions were numerous and expensive.
TRANSFERS.
Captain Healy, of Truck 6, was this week trans
ferred to Engine No. 22, vice McDonough, who re
turns to the command of Engine No. 9. The ap
pointment of Captain Connell to the commandof
the new tireboat was this week confirmed.
APPOINTMENTS.
Donohue, of Engine No. 12, was on Monday last
appointed as foreman of Truck No. 6; James Rob
erts, of Engine No. 8, will, no doubt, assume charge
of the Furman street company. It is rumored how
ever that Captain Smith, of Engine No. 14. has been
promised the command of the latter company. The
Herkimer street men would welcome the change. It
is said Captain Farrell, of Engine No. 17, will be
the coming foreman of the new company.
ITEMS OF NEWS,
The bell-ringers in the department have been (as
signed to temporary duty at the Furman street
house. The detailing of these men is due to the
recent improvements in the electrical appliances
which dispenses with the services of those formerly
used as machines.
Daniel McGlone, at present foreman of the Brook
lyn Electric Light Company, is favorably spoken ot
as the coming Superintendent of Telegraph in the
Department; should he, however, fail in his aspira
tions, the vacancy which will undoubtedly be crea
ted by the expulsion of Wasserman,will be accepta
bly filled by Mr. McGlone.
BROOKLYN POLICE MATTERS
DEPARTMENT CHANGES, TRIALS, ETC.
A gloomy aspect was apparent in and about
headquarters during the past week. The feeling
was, however, somewhat brightened upon the in
telligence being received of the reappointment of
Mr. Francis Dallon as Deputy Commissioner.
Changes will, nevertheless, be made among those of
the ufiuniformed force at present holding position.
It is universally hoped that the services of Messrs.
Harlow and Jenkins may be retained despite politi
cal changes. With the appointment of Colonel
Carroll as Police Commissioner, it is said that no
serious difficulty will arise concerning the adminis
tration of the working portion of the force. Regret
at the loss of Commissioner Partridge has been ex
pressed during the week by members of the present
force, irrespective of party affiliations.
TRIALS.
Marks, of the First Precinct, has again brought
himself into trouble through a fascination, viz. the
crooking of his elbow. The excuse of putting out a
drunken man alter the midnight hour was not
deemed worthy of notice, and Captain Campbell’s
statement of not seeing Marks in the performance
of his duty will cost the latter a loss of one day’s
pay.
Whiteford, of the First Precinct, was ordered to
perform duty as a patrolman by his superior offi
cer during the past week. The malaria, which
would appear to be prevalent during the holiday
season, evidently affected "Whitey’s” brain. His
previous C. R. resulted in his escaping in this iu.
stance with a reprimand.
Bennett, Jr., did not feel exactly well while per
forming patrol duty, as alleged, on Tuesday last.
The ill feeling culminated in tempting Bennett to
seek consolation in the cup that, it is claimed,
drowns sorrow. Bennett will forfeit one day’s pay
as a result of his confidence in human nature and
compounds.
Herbert, whose appointment was effected in Au
gust last, wandered away from his relieving point
during his tour of duty, and pleading guilty, as al
leged, was sharply reprimanded.
Noonan, when costive, should procure a leave of
absence, in order to provide against possible con
tingencies. For negligence in this respect he was
found guilty of being off post without taking a pill,
which latter action will entail a loss of one day s
pay. Fivepeuce would have effected a cure, Noo
nan.
