BEFORE COMMISSIONER FRENCH.
THAT GIASS~O1? SCHNAPPS.
Meyer was off post in the lager fcoer saloon, No.
49 Pitt street. Roundsman Schroth said he saw the
OHicer come along and some gentleman spoke to
him, and the two went in the saloon. He went over
to the door and found it locked, when a woman
called out to the bartender. “ Who’s trying to get
In V* and he asked who was there. The roundsman
told him to tell the officer to come out. The door
was spe!J«d and the officer had a glass of brandy be
fore him at the baft ■ L ••.
Meyer said he went On duty at twelve o’clock. At
ten minuteß past twelve he tried the door and found
it*ecure. Half an hour later became bank and
found the place lit up. He looked in and saw two
men in the place, and thought he had a right to go
m and see if they belonged there, As soon as he
found all was right he stepped out.
"What were you doing with the glass in yoiH.
hand?’’ asked the Commissioner.
"I did not have it,” replied the officer.
»‘I saw the officer at Rivington ated Titt
Streets at fifteen minutes past twelve,’’ Said the
roundsman. ** I passed the place five minutes be
fore that. When the officer went ift he stood talk
ing at the bar, and the woman M,ys, ’The officer
wants a glass of schnapps, ’ and j»<er husband poured
it out. When I tried the dod* I said, -You better
come out.’ He said, ‘Yes, I’did not drink anything;
it is there.’ I don’t thih'k the door was locked. I
did not ask for anything?’
•• He does not say that, but the woman did.”
“I did not hear hot.”
••It is curious; were inside. There was a
glass of liquor before you.”
"If so. it wasn’t mine. The roundsman was out
side; I was in. I went in to see what this party
was doing in there. The woman I did not see.”
"I followed him right down,” said the rounds
man. "He has a habit of going into the saloons
after seeing the roundsman. He was in there
property.”
"Thel’s was no conversation about property.”
•‘I could hear every word that was spoken,’* said
the roundsman. "When she said, ’Give him a glass
of schnapps,’ I thought I would wbt give him a
chance to drink it.”
Omrad Ri-ger, the proprietor, said he always
Joc&d the door before twelve o’clock. That night
ho *7aa late coming home. There was a friend with
him, and he lit up the gas, to take and give him a
eeor. His wife went in the back room, and did tell
him to give the officer schnapps. He offered him a
glass oi beer, but he wouldn't'take it.
"And that was the reason why your wife asked
you to give him a glass of Tjbhnapps ?”
•' There was a glass of beOr and a glass of schnapps
00 the bar, but I took nothing,” said the officer.
A GASE OF PERJURY.
The charge preferred against Skilling, of the
Twentieth Precinct, was trivial, but the result may
be serious. Skilling charged Lynch, the rounds
man, with committing perjury. The'Chances are
that Skilling will leave the force, if he does not main
tain bis accusation. The officer failed to properly
patrol from lOsOO-to 11:40. When tho roundsman
asked him where he bad been he made no explana
tion, and was wtty sarcastic toward him, and was
surprised that he he should find cause for com
plaint
•• The statement is all wrong; there is not a word
©f truth in it, "said Skilling. "When the rounds
man asked where I was, I had just chased the boys
off the atreAt into * big tenementhouse. They got
©ver tbe'fence into another yard.”
•' WhatV*®ie was that?”
•• Quarter to eleven. If ha had rapped at either
end of my post, or in the middle, I would have
heard him.”
" Everything in that statement of the roundsman,
as be told it, is absolutely untrue ?”
••Yes, eir.”
he any motive to do it ?”
"No; but he is wilfully doing what is wrong. If
be •bad rapped I wouid have heard him,”
"There are too many men that you can catch
without having occasion to swear falsely to a com
plete t,” said the roundsman.
" This is a fearful accusation yon have made
•gainst the roundsman,” said the Commissioner.
■’♦Unless you can show some motive for making
•ueh a charge—that there is no truth in it—l will
eonaider that perjury has been committed. What
adds to it; you say it is absolutely a falsehood from
beginning to end. Here is a statement made with
out foundation. There is no middle course in this
case. I can’t judge that a man with that face [the
roundsman’s] is capable of committing such an
outrage.”
♦•ln a case that Roundsman Murphy had against
him eight months ago, he brought four witnesses
♦hat were not present on the occasion. This man
thought I had no right to make a complaint against
him. He said he would get me transferred if I
made a complaint.”
"I shall send this complaint to the Board; I can’t
take the responsibility of deciding it. If you have
done this officer this wrong, you are unfit to remain
on the force; if he [the officer] has taken a false oath,
be is not fit to be on the force.”
"I can bring another officer that saw me on the
post looking for him.” <
••I don't suppose they will fight him,*’said his
officer.
"The officer that I timed was mashing a young
Eirl, when I found that was the case I was sorry I
roke it up,”
The case was adjourned one week. If the rounds
men strengthens his case, and the officer doesn’t,
♦hen he may expect eventually to get his discharge
papers,
A GAME OF RUBBER AND A RUBBER OOAT.
Donohue was charged with being in the lager beer
•aloon in Seventy-ninth street. Roundsman Bach
said passing the place he found the officer stand
ing by the table looking at a party playing cards.
When asked what he was doing, he said he went in
for his rubber coat.
But it was lying on the chair, said the rounds
man. He picked it up and came out.
The officer said it was a foggy night but didn’t
rain. He left the coat there at 8 o’clock, and called
there at half past 11 for it, before closing up. He
Just stepped in and asked the bar-tender for it.
The bartender handed it to a young man who
banded it to him.
MR. DALLY'S NARROW ESCAPE.
The complaint against Hubbard of the thirty
second precinct was failing to discover a burglary
committed at the house of ;Johu Dally, 158th street
and Eleventh avenue.
Mr. Dally said on the 25th of February, he dis
covered a burglar in the sitting-room. His wife
discovered him first and gave the alarm, and he
made a start for him. The thief went downstairs,
he went after him, but the burglar turned and fired
at him on the stairs from the hall. That stopped
the pursuit, but he went to the front window on
♦be Boulevard, and used the utmost power of his
lungs, with his wife, to make themselves heard by
neighbors and police. No response came from the
police and the man escaped. With his son he kept
watch for the police all the morning, and they
never put in an appearance, from half-past two till
a quarter to six in the morning. His halloing he
thought should have been heard three or four
blocks. The officer couldn’t have gone by his house
Without seeing him.
Hubbard said he patrolled the post faithfully
from twelve to six o’clock. He passed Mr. Daily’s
house at two o'clock and tried the doors, and they
were then all right. The next time he came around
was a quarter past three. The house was all lighted
op so that he could see the people moving about
Be thought there was sickness in the house.
Mr. Dally said when he charged the officer with
failing to pass the house in that time, he did not
(dispute him. *
The officer said the gentleman appeared to be
Angry.
The Commissioner said it was no wonder. To
be fired at. scream himself hoarse, and sit up till
day-light, It was just such a case as to make a man
angry.
MISS RANDOLPH ADVISED TO SEEK "PAS
TURES NEW.”
The charge again st Dooley, of the Twenty-second
Precinct,, was, that at 1:30 A. M., February 24tb, he
assaulted Jane Randolph, caused her to lose a dia
mond earring, and did not arrest her. Janey looks
like a pleasing girl of about seventeen years, and
her.sister perhaps a year older. The sisters live at
No. 578. West Thirty-eighth street.
"Ara you married ?” asked the Commissioner.
•• I have been married—not now. I was at this
ball >n West Forty-fourth street, Wendell's Assem
bly Rooms, me and my husband. When we came
in the man wanted him to pay again. We had been
out to get supper. My husband wouldn't pay. He
(the officer)>pushed me inside and my husband out
side and ; my sister. He took bis club to hit my
husband and came and struck mein the face and
knocked my sirring out. He struck me two or
three times in the face, and I fell in the arms of my
Bister. There were gentlemen around who didn’t
Interfere.”
It appears that Janey's husband is now in the
Tombs under an indictment for burglary, and ex
pecting him to be convicted, she considers that she
has no hueband, and for that reason testified she
bad "been marr ed.”
The officer said he had plenty of witnesses to
prove her character.
The Commissioner said that was no defense to
itriking a woman.
Ida Mitchell, the sister of Janey, said she lived at
878 West Thirty-eighth street. She was with her
Bister Feb. 24. The tickets were 75 cents for a
gent and ladies. They Left the ball and went to
nipper, and, returning, the officer would not let
them in. They wanted to get in because their
wraps were there. It was a masquerade ball. The
dcorman wanted pay again, and the officer wanted
to strike her sister’s husband, and her sister took
the club, and the officer knocked her down in the
hall between the two doors. When she got up he
hit her again and she fell in her arms.
David Hammer, the special officer at Wendeli’s
rooms, said the ladles went out, and came back
after supper, apparently under the influence of
J quor, and wanted to bring in a man. This was
■ail invitation ball; the door was locked. The man
Wuth them was xw>t fit to go in a ball-room. He
bad not been in the ball-room. The orders of the
committee was not td lei Any in unless they had in
vitations. They came wiflQ this man and persisted
that they should get it. TiJe man made a grab for
him by the neck, the ladies f’eratched his hand, and
he drew his stick to defend h.\»®elf. The lady got
hold of it the other by his arm, «Aod he had to call
the officer to assist him. He gave them their
wraps. The officer said if they didn’t go away he
wouid arrest them. They were intoxicated.
"You say your husband was with the
Commissioner.
" Yes, sir ; he is my husband by righ.V and law,”
Baid Janey.
•• What do you mean by that ?”
"I was living with him.”
" When did you pick him up ?”
" He bad been in the ball room.”
" He wasn’t,” said the special deputy.
Aiderman Wendell said: "These ladies were
pie of street-walkers. The lady got hold of his (the
ieputy’s) collar and tried to kill him.”
"If they are thieves or prostitutes they have no
right to be knocked around by an officer,” remark
ed the Commissioner.
Mr. Weeks, a colored gentleman, the Alderman’s
private barber, said he saw the rumpus, tying to
get away the officer’s club.
"Where is your husband, Janey?” asked the
Commissioner.
0 bad a quarrel and he went home.”
Qfficer Reilly, of the Twenty-second Precisci, said
the man she claimed as her husband was a thief,
was now in the Tombs awaiting trial. One of the
girls, the wife, got six months and the other ten
days.
•'He arrested; me one night,” said Janey, "for
nothing.”
" Another officer had them up on the charge of
street-walking,” said Reilly.
" He took me out of a store and made a charge of
disO>J erI y conduct," said Janey.
"Seek pastures new,” said the Commissioner
with a srd'.^ e - ” 1 think you have about exhausted
this towfi.
THE LECTOR SAVED HIM.
Buckhorn came down answer roll-call half uni
formed. He said somebody h .ad tampered with the
lock of his closet and he couldn into it.
The Commissioner said that W«is a serious com
plaint, and should be investigated. . . .
Sergeant Sullivan, of the Twenty-ninty precinct,
said when the officer came down he asked bin) Wftat
the matter was. He replied in ft
” That is a nice }°b.”
"I saw he had been drinking,” said the sergeant,
n and J sent for Dr. Stoiuhardt. The officer stag
gered. I called him in the room, and smelled
liquor, and saw he wm not in a fit condition to go
out. The doctor examined him and said ho couldn’t
smell liquor on his breath, tasked the doctor if
he was in a fit condition to go out, and he said,
•yes. sir? and I ordered him out.”
" You are not charged with being under the influ.
ence of liquor, but this puts a different phase on the
complaint with which yoq are. charged. If there
was a .iob pjjL up qq
you could not change your clothes, it would be ex
cusable, but if on account of your own ”
"That's the truth, sir.”
"Be very careful. You know how the Commis
sioners feel toward a man who drink?/’
IN TO GET Tf’i; SQUEEZE OF A LEMON.
Sdy&dU?, found in the liquor store. No. 61 South
Street, said the charge was true. He went in to get
a lemon, after taking cod liver oil. He was Bick at his
stomach after taking the medicine,
"How did you discover him ?”
••He was in the private office,” said Roundsman
Halpin. " I could see the officer’s im&pe through
the stained glass. When I opened the door he was
standing. He said he was after taking cod liver oil
by the doctor’s direction.”
"I am ordered to take anything I like after the
oil,” said the officer.
" But you have no right to be in a liquor store/'
SMITH’S P’S AND Q’S.
When Smith, of the Eighth Precinct, was charged
with being off his relieving post, he said:
" I admit coming into the station-house too soon.
There is no use fighting it; I admit it/’
" Where were you born ?”
" Finland.'*
"What year were you born?”
"1800-18, I think, 54.”
” What year did you come to this country ?”
•• ’7l/’
" How old were yon when you came here ?”
"Under eighteen.”
"When were you naturalised?”
"’72. I can’t remember. I took out my full pa
pers. I don’t recollect the date of the papers now/’
SLEPT OUT HIS 10UR.
Bolster belongs to the mounted police in the
Thirty-fourth Precinct His next door neighbors
are Mr. and Mrs. Morgan, with whom he has had
some little unpleasantness of late. Not until after
their quarrel did they think of making a charge
against Bolster of leaving his post.
Attached to Bolster’s house there is a barn, and
the Morgans and another neighbor said it was the
custom of the officer to ride homo and stable his
horse in the barn and go to bed. They specified
four occasions in particular—June 21, 'B6; 23, 'B6;
July 12. ’B6; January 25, 'B7. On these Higbts Cap
tain Robbins proved by the blotter that Bolster
should have been on patrol. His house was about
a mile from his post. It is likely that Bolster will
be unhorsed.

ALONZO TRUESDELL.
Alonz« Wruesdell died in Harlem at seven P. M.,
March 14, Mr. Truesdell was familiarly known to
his friends as "Brickey.” This name was given him
in consequence of a beautiful red beard which be
wore from the time he was a young man. Alonzo
Trueedell was a school officer for many years, and
all his efforts were to improve the schools in which
our children fit themsolbes for the battle of life. As
far as he could go in this direction he was a noble
success. Out of the world goes a most worthy man,
who has honestly and energetically worked f»r the
advancement of bis fellows, and yet how little the
world knows of its real benefactors. One of these
men was Alonzo Truesdell. He was unselfish, hon
est, genial and kindly. He became at once the friend
of all with whom became into contact who were
like himself, simply and straightforwardly honest.
He had not entered into the fullness of years, but
he had accomplished much good in his nearly sixty
years of life. And when the fell destroyer struck
him down in the very zenith of his manhood’s ca
pability and his intellectual competency, he left be
hind no honest man who did not regret his death,
nor any in all the world who could say that Alonzo
Truesdell had ever wronged him. When ho entered
into that rest, which muat come t© us all some day,
he left no enemy to rejoice over his death, but many
admirers, companions and friends to regret that so
good a man should have made an eternal parting
from those who knew him well and loved him well.

MAYOR HEWITT MAKING TROUBLE.
Some days ago Mayor Hewitt received a report
from Superintendent Murray containing a list of
dance and music halls. On examining the report
the Mayor discovered that a large number of bad
resorts were not mentioned in the report.
The Mayor immediately set to work to procure s
complete list of the places, and has forwarded to
Superintendent Murray the name and street num
bers of dance-halls, dives, thieves' resorts, gambling
houses and places where sawdust swindlers make
their headquarters, and asks that these be closed
immediately.
Mayor Hewitt said yesterday that Superintendent
Murray was taking active steps to close all the
places of evil resort. The reports furnished to him
by the Snperintendent came from the police cap
tains of the different precincts and were not com.
plete. An explanation has been asked for, which
will be furnished in a few days.
In the reports no mention was made of the dives
on Park Row, the Bowery, the gambling houses on
Ann street and Sixth avenue, near Thirtieth street.
It is the Mayor’s intention to have all of these places
closed and the proprietors punished.
Not this Court, Another.—Henry
Cushman, a young lad, pleaded guilty to stealing a
bag of flear. He denied ever being arrested before.
The officer said the boy told him he had just come
down, after serving six months.
"What were you here for?” again] asked the
Court.
"Not in this court.”
•• Where, then ? ’
"In the General Sessions. I waited three months
in prison to get tried, and was discharged.”
" Six months/' said the Court.
