Roundsman Breen and Sergeant Reville of the Second Precinct, had a growl in the stables, wnicn had to be brought down to the White House to be settled. They were charged with using language to each other unbecoming gentlemen. Captain Saunders said the sergeant came in first, and said he could do nothing with Breen. W hen asked why, he said Breen was using abusive lan guage to him, and refused to obey him. Rounds man Breen came in and he asked him why he had refused to obey the sergeant, and bad used disres pectful language to him. He said he didn’t, but that the sergeant had used abusive language to him, and said he was a blackmailer and a thief. *lhe captain asked the sergeant about it, but he denied using the language. The quarrel was in re lation to the shoeing of a horse. The roundman spoke to the captain the day before it needed shoe ing. He said, “ Very well,” and he had it shod. Reville keeps a list of the horses, and how often shod. The sergeant said he should have reported to him. Breen said the horse needed shoeing and he re ported the fact to the captain. Next morning he reported to the sergeant he was going to get it ehod. At a quarter to 11 he came back and reported the horse shod. It was not worth while then going on duty, as duty was up at 12. Reville came in and •aid, •• why didn’t you acquaint me ?” He said it was the captain’s orders. The sergeant said: "I would like you to know you are under me.” Then in walking away he said : ■•You are a blackmailing thief. I have letters in my trunk showing you are a perjurer and a swindler.” He approached in a fight ing attitude, and the froth and spit of the sergeant went over Breen, and he followed him him up with abusive language. He told the sergeant it was not becoming to use such language. Outside of his uniform he was as good a man as the sergeant was. ••If,” said Breen, “I am a blackmailer, or per jured swindler, let him prove it now,” The sergeant said it was part of his duty to keep * record of the horses shod. That morning he no ticed the horse newly shod. He asked the officer why be did not tell him. He replied in a loud, abusive manner, what was he (the sergeant)?—he would have nothing to do with him. He did not know whether he would obey his orders or not. The sergeant then told Breen there was no use in talking so loud, abusive and boisterous. The reply to this was, "You are a liar. You accused me of writing letters to your family to injure you,” This occurred six or seven years ago. The sergeant said. ’’These letters are coming yet—l don’t know from whom; but whoever is doing it, it’s a rascally piece of business, and they should be in the State prison.” Breen denied being the author of these letters, which come from some Junius on the force. The sergeant had no proof he was the writer, and he denied the authorship. GOT LOST AT HIGH BRIDGE. Michael Harty, of the Thirty-second Precinct, should have been present at the return roll call at 12:20. but did not get in the Station House till 2:20. When he camo in Sergt. Groo asked where he had been, he said: "I got lost coming in.” The ser geant told him if he had followed the railroad track after leaving the acqueduct shaft, it would havo led to the Station House. He said he did. The sergeant asked Harty who relieved him. He didn’t know. The officer sent to relieve Harty could not find him. His relieving point was 176th street and Tenth avenue. The officer said ho got lost, he had never been there before in bis life. IN GETTING A WARM. In the liquor store No. 743 Tenth avenue was the charge-against Fitzpatrick. He said he was in there, but the roundsman was hounding him. " Never mind that. Why were you in there ?” asked the Commissioner. " I saw the roundsman twice. It was a cold night, and a cold morning, and I went in and sat down to get a warm. I was not in five minutes, when he came in and tapped me on the shoulder and asked me what excuse I had.” " That was no place to be in,” said the Commie sioner. DODGING DUIY. Craig, on his way to his relief, passed within two feet of Annie Green, drunk, hanging on to a lamp post, surrounded by a crowd of boys and did not arrest her. The officer said it was one o’clock when he turned out. Ho went on Eleventh avenue on his way to relieve his man, Smith was behind him and the woman was on his post and when he came up he saw her. Sergeant Brown said when the section turned out he went after them. As be got to the corner of Thirty-seventh street he noticed a lot of children and this woman. Craig passed her. Smith and Stevens were a hundred feet away. He called Smith and Smith called Craig and the two took her in. BITTERS TOO MUCH FOR HIM. Cagney, of the Twelfth Precinct, was charged with intoxication. The officer said he never drank intoxicating liquors and this was his first drink, palmed off on him under the name of bitters, to help cure an at: ack of dysentery. He said he was up and down all night the night previous with cramps and went on post without breakfast. He didn't know that it was his place to report sick. Patrolling, he met a man who kept a liquor saloon, and asked for the water-closet. Coming out, the saloon-keeper asked him if he didn’t feel better. He said "No.” The man said he had something would stop it. He took a little and felt no better. The man said he would make it a little stronger, and it would be a sure cure. As soon as he went out and stood at 115th street, he felt it in his head, as he had never drank liquor in bis life. Walking, he felt worse, and took a car to 126th street. He was not drunk, but dizzy. What he drank would not have affected a child. Sergeant Suttle said £he officer was brought in at 1:05. He was rather dazed and stupid. The breath had the smell of some stimulant, sour like, and the sergeant sent him to bed. Roundsman Thompson said, going to dinner, he found the officer at 126th street and saw that some thing was the matter with him, as ho appeared fiazed, bewildered. He supposed he was intoxicated, but his breath did not smell of liquor. He brought him to the station-house. The officer was not a drinking man, TROUBLES AT THE NEW CROTON AQUEDUCT. Fredericks and McKeon, of the Thirty-fifth Pre cinct, were found in a shanty near an aqueduct shaft. Fredericks said there had been a strike, and a number of new men were employed to take their place. He was detailed to look out for trouble. The night before, the men had been chased out of the tunnel. The foreman told him he was going to venture to bring the men up for an airing, and there might be trouble. McKeon came along, it was on his post, and they went in this shanty to be ready to render assistance, if needed. The roundsman couldn’t contradict Fredericks, ABOUT A DOG. 'Smith, found too long in conversation with a citi zen on Savepth avenue, said that a citizen came to him and said a few nights previously he had lost a clog. He was inquiring for the dog. Ho gave the officer a description of the dog. A friend had told complainant he had seen such a dog, and a man pick it up. He ; nuw tn 9 raSh ., where lie lived, but he knew him by sight. He asked the officer to hang around, and if £uT eaw the BW collar him for stealing the dog. '•j£_ ' aul _ Fisher and Saxe off post in the hallway of tenement-house No. 142 First avenue. Fisher ad mitted going off pest a few minutes. He was in formed that Officer Shaw, who lived there, was sick, and ho ran up to see how he was. When he came down the roundsman was at the door. Saxe said be had the same statement to make. Roundsman O’Rorke said he saw them leave thoir posts. The entrance was to a bakery. Saxe said he wen; to the water-closet. Fisher said he, too, was to the water-closet, but he found him behind the door, BLIND LEADING THE BLIND. Lyons and Walsh, both new men, were found in a liquor-store on Third avenue. Lyons said: "I am sick. I asked policeman Walsh where I could go to, and he went in this liquor saloon and showed me where to go to.” Officer Walsh said: "Lyons was sick. It was a cold night, and I told him he might go to the water closet. Lyons said he was a stranger, and he went in with him and showed him where to go.” Rounsman McKenna said that was the statement they made to him when they came out. SWEET BITTERS. Braisted was off post in the liquor saloon at No. 425 South street, at the bar, drinking. "So far as being off post it is true,” said the offi cer, "but I only drank a glass of bitters. I met my Bidepardner. and got him to cover my post. Com ing out the man at the bar asked if I’d have Bo’thing. I said I don’t care if I do; I’ll take a glass of bitters.” Roundsman Harris said the officer was standing at the bar with a glass to his mouth, and a glass of water before him. He said it was bitters The bar tender wouldn’t say what it was. There was so lit tle of the dregs left in the glass, the roundsman couldn’t swear what it was. *• You had the right to get a person to cover your pest for such a purpose,” said the Commissioner. ‘•You have got to stand the brunt of what you did, and the Board will decide the result. If you will go in these places, and get caught in them, you know the result. You may not stay much longer on the force.” • A RABBIT STEW. Perkins acknowledged being in the liquor store, No. 208 Hudson street. " What have you to say ?” "Guilty. I had occasion to go into the hall of this saloon. There is a cigar factory in the rear, and I went to the factory. Coming out I met the proprietor of the place; ne asked me if I didn’t care about a little rabbit stew; I said not then, but would take it on my last lap,” about 11 o’clock. “ I went in on my last tour,” said Perkins. This is a small room where you can’t see the bar. It was within ten minutes of relieving time, and it was raw and cold. The roundsman happened in.” "So you ran thetisk of losing your place by de serting your post?” remarked the Commissioner. "Standing on the corner I saw the officer go in,” said the roundsman. "I followed him in the office adjoining. He had a stew and a piece of bread in his hand. He said he was cold and wdht in to get it,” Important.—When you visit or leave New York city, save baggage, expressage, and $3 carriage hire, and stop at the Grand Union Hotel, opposite Grand Central Depot. 600 elegant rooms, fitted up at a cost of one million dollars, $1 and up ward per day.

There was a vrfty large meeting of the friends of the late Chief held last Saturday week at Hall’s the purpose of ’originating a fund for the tarry*?? of the late chief. Judge John H. Mc- Carthy presided, and Mr. Georgo Fisher acted as secretary,'and a committee of ten persons was ap pointed'for the purpose of making arrangements for an entertainment to be had at the Windsor Theatre, that 'establishment having been tendered, as has beefa published in the Dispatch, by Mr. Murtha, for the purpose. Ten thousand tickets will be printed, and it is hoped a large amount will be realized from the sale. A delegation of three persons, all.firemen, waited upon the Mayor a week ago yesterday, and asked him to use his influence with the Fire Commission ers so that they would allow the firemen to sell tickets for the entertainment, and the Mayor and President Purroy had a conference upon the sub ject on Monday, and Mr. Purroy showed his Honor the following resolution which had been adopted by the Board, which developed the fact that tho per mission asked for could not be granted without vio lating a very important General Order. “Resolved, The rule forbidding members of the uniformed force to engage, directly or indirectly in the sale of tickets, or the solicitation of subscrip tions for any purpose, is founded upon the long experience of the Department, and while it remains on our General Orders, it should be strictly en forced, and therefore the Fire Commissioners can not, in the face of such rule consent to an exception being made to its enforcement; at the same time the Commissioners have no objection that tickets for the benefit to be gotten up by the Produce Exchange Committee, for the widow of Chief Mahedy, should be left at headquarters, so that those who are desirous of purchasing them may obtain them from either one of the Commissioners, the Secretary or the Chief of Department, and it is perhaps proper to add that the Commissioners consider the object a worthy one, and are anxious to do all in their power to further it.” This disposes of the subject. FIREMAN HOBOURG. Last Monday morning the Fire Commissioners received a dispatch from Assistant Foreman McNa mara of Engine Co. No. 9, setting forth that the body of fireman William Hobonrg, of Engine Co. No. 41, had been found at the foot of Market street, East River. It will be remembered that this fireman, while going to his home in Tremont, on January 25th last, after being relieved from all day duty at the fire of the West Shore Ferry Buildings, was crossing the small trestle bridge of the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad over Cromwell’s creek, fell through, and it was supposed his body was frozen in the mud, it having been missing ever since, until it was found, as above stated, on Mon day last. His cap was found on a cake of ice alter he disappeared in the water. LATER. On Tuesday morning another dispatch was re ceived at headquarters stating that the body recov ered at tho place named was not that of the miss ing fireman. SICK FIREMEN. Tho medical officers reported that they had on their list the names of forty-four sick and disabled officers and men. TRIALS. On Wednesday the board held its regular weekly meeting, and held the following trials: NEGLECT OF DUTY. Firemen Walter Ostrander and Luke Clayton, of Engine Company No. 18, were both charged with failing to report upon the apparatus floor in an swer to an alarm of fire. Station No. 265, on March 21st. Ostrander’s case was first taken Up. He pleaded guilty, and said in the most self-pos sessed and assured manner possible to coneeive: "Mr. President, I was not well on the day in ques tion. I heard the alarm when it came in, and I knew we did not go to that station, and so I staid up stairs.” Com. Croker—"Did you have an understanding with Clayton to stay up stairs ?” Ostrander—"No, sir.” Com. Croker—"How did then ?” President Purroy—"Don't you know the rules command you to answer all alarms of fire on the apparatus floor ?” Ostrander—" Yes, sir.” President Purroy (to Captain Van Horn): “Captain have you anything to add in this case ?” Captain Van Horn: "No, sir, that’s the whole story.” Ostrander was then fined the loss of five day’s pay. Clayton’s case was then called and as he promptly took the witness stand, he presented a very fine manly appearance; his face was pale, his eye bright and his form was as erect as an Indian's. He also pleaded guilty and said: " Mr. President— I had been previously detailed to the theatre; alter I went to the house I was very tired, and fell asleep. I am in the second company and knowing we did not go to that station I did not go down stairs.” President Purroy : "Is that the custom in your company—not to go down on the apparatus floor when you aro not duo at the station signal.zed Clayton : "No, sir.” President Purroy (to Captain Van Horn): "Any thing to add, Captain?” Captain : •• No, sir. This is the first charge I have ever had against him.” President Purroy : "Captain, is it the custom in your company for the men not to go down when a station comes in, in which you do not do duty ?” Captain Van Horn—"No, sir” (in a very decided and emphatic manner). Clayton was then fined five days’ pay. A LONG ABSENCE WITHOUT LEAVE. Fireman John E. Boyle, of Engine Company No. 51 (the fireboat "Zophar Mills”), was charged with being absent from his post of duty without leave, from halt-past ten o’clock on the morning of March 14th, until eight o’clock in the morning of March 23d, and, as stated in the complaint, “he is still absent.” When Boyle was arraigned for trial he looked as if he had passed through a very severe and prolonged attack of sickness, and he seemed to be suffering a great deal of pain while the charges were being read to him. He pleaded guilty and said: “ Mr. President and gentlemen of the Boais; Since I h&Y9 in the department I have suffered a great deal from the in juries I have received. I have been ruptured, and sometimes it affects me so I don’t know what I am about, and don't know what to do with myself.” President Purroy—"Why didn't your folks let the foreman know of your condition ?” Boyle—•• Well, sir, I don’t know; they failed to do so, however. I don’t drink—that is, very often —I may take a little sometimes, though. I got in jured while I was in Engine Company No. 24.” Captain Farrell—" Yes, gentlemen, Boyle was in jured while he was in Engine Company No. 24. Drs. Miner and Monell attended Boyle then, and I know of no other reason lor his absence further than what he has given here to-day.” President Purroy—"Where were you, Boyle, all the time you were absent?” Boyle—" I was home, sir, most all the time.” Com. Smith—"Xqu are taking care of your tapu ble, aren’t you ?” Boyle—“ Yes, sir; but it don’t seem to do much good.” abg President IFefi called f>r. Samuel Johnson, one of the medical officers of the Board, and he said: " I think it would be a good plaq to nut Poyle on light duty, as he is badly ruptured and not fit for active duty at present.” President Purroy—" Well, we will lay the case over for the present, and, doctor, suppose you ex amine Boyle iiotf." Dr. Jofenson and Boyle then retired, and in a shorf ti’me the doctor returned and said that Boyle Was in a very bad condition. President Purroy—" Well, you had better give him a sick leave, and have him examined by the full Medical Bbard, and in the meantime we will lay his Case, now before us, over for future considera tion.” Dr. Johnson—” Yes, sir.” ON LIGHT DUTY. Fireman Henry Brengel, of Engine Company No. 35, having been found physically disabled from per forming further active duty, was ;so retired, but goes on watch duty. THE STANDARD THEATRE. It having been reported to the Board that all the exit doors in the balcony and parquet of the Stand ard Theatre were kept locked while the perform ances were going on, the Superintendent of Build ings was ordered to notify the managers that here after these doors must be kept unlocked. UNPAID CLAIMS. There was an unusually large number of unpaid claims against firemen filed with the Board, and the delinquents will soon have to " face the music”— the Board—or else pay up. THE TAX MONEY. Under the insurance laws of the State, all foreign fire insurance companies pay a tax on their busi ness, and, up to the year 1877, the Exempt Fire men’s Association received one-half of such tax, which amounts to over $45,000 a year, and the bal ance went to the Relief Fund of the Fire Depart ment. Subsequently the law was changed, giving the whole amount to the Exempt Firemen’s Fund. On Wednesday afternoon the Board of Fire Com missioners had a very long conference with Fire Insurance Presidents St. John, Norman and Kenne dy, and a representative of the Exempt Firemen's Association, the result being that they agreed to recommend to the Legislature that each of the Fire men’s Associations receive 42% per cent., and the other 15>£ per cent, be given to the Insurance Patrol. THE FOURTH BATTALION. There is a great deal of speculation going around as to who will fill the vacancy ot Chief of the Fourth Battalion in the place of poor Frank Mahedy, but up to the present writing nothing definite has been done, and all the competitors for the position, and there are a great many of them, will have to go before the Civil Service Examiners for examina tion. Among the most prominent Foremen mentioned are Kehoe, of Hook and Ladder Company No. 6; Cashman, of Hook and Ladder Company No. 8; Cosgrove, of Engine Company No. 54; Colby, of Hook and Ladder Company No. 4, and Meagher, of Hook and Ladder Company No. 3. Nothing will be done for some time yet, however. THE BASE BALL CLUB. The members of the Fire Department Base Ball Club, which is composed of the unitormed mem bers of the Eepartment, last year played twenty seven games, winning twenty-four, and they chal lenge the New York Police Base Ball Club to a series of games to decide the question of superiority. BENEFIT FOR CHIEF MAHEDY’S FAMILY. The committee of Dover Post, No. 112, Delaware, who have charge of the benefit to be given to the family ot the late Battalion Chief, Frank Mahedy, which is to take place at the Windsor Theatre on Friday aiternoon, April 9th, have tickets now ready for disposal.

EXEMPT VETERAN FIREMEN’S SONS. The Volunteer Exempt Veteran Firemen s Sons’ Association meet an the Village House, corner of Bank and Hudson streets, next Friday night. SUPERINTENDENT OF THE INSURANCE PA TROL. Ever since the enforced retirement of Monmonth B. Wilson from the position of Superintendent of the Fire Insurance Patrol, the underwriters have been looking around for his successor. On Thurs day they made choice of Capt. Abram C. Hull. Subsequent to the regular meeting the Patrol Com mittee filled the vacancy caused by the promotion of Capt. Hull by the appointment of Lieut. J. F. Sanlord as Captain, and advanced Sergt. Murray to tho post vacated by Sanford. Capt. Hull, the new appointee, is a man well fitted to occupy the re ponsible position of Superintendent, He was a member ol the old Volunteer Fire Department, and when the paid department was organized joined that body, retiring in 1870 to join the Fire Patrol. His advancement in that has bean quite rapid. WW. Excursions to the Mountains, via. Pie turesque Erie Railroad.
