That was as Minds& These was as eery* 1* the nom.

There was a table, with tee washing basin sod ewer, is the
nes, bat did mos am two. They aid net hese the two
savers say the landlord and his mitt won stack up
publicans and snobs, but they heard the landlady say the
of were sin gents, indeed, to use such language.
la newer to questions jry Mr. Ingham, the polio. of
said then were several lodging houses to the court adjoining
Ito she one into which the odious were shows. There was
a board at the end of die cuss annouseing to the public
that lodgings were to be let at 4d., Id., and Is. per night.
The military oaken posted several prostitutes ca their way
'
up the court, and asked the sort of persons who slept la the
hone generally, and were answered, "Emigrants, dock'
labourers, end seamen." Polinsergeant Moloy, Na. 48,
was decidedly of opinion the room in question was not fit
for gentlemen, and he would not bimielt ban slept between
the sheets which had been
tutentil others.
Mr. Child said that ap to be the only tangible
objection, and, is an efin vs speech, contended the objec-
tions of the two gentlemen were not well founded. They came
into the house in a haughty, self-sufficient manner, and
when they were informed the house was full they did not
behave like gentlemen. It was to be regretted they did not
comport themselves better. The defendant had offered the
officen the best accommodation he could afford, aid had not
violated the statute. Suppose a gentleman holding her
Majesty's commission as commander of a regiment, or the
commander- in.ohief, was suddenly billeted on a Ilesend
victualler or hotalkeeper, was he to tarn out all the people
already in bed and asleep In the house ? If officers ended
themselves of billets, they must take the best accommodation
the holes afforded. Ile would show the accommodation

offered by Mr. WrattenwU...heltertia;;;ould be obtained
at some of the but inns in the country. Iran objection had
been made to the shams, clean ones would have been given.
There was no suggestion the sheets were dirty, filthy, or
offensive. What was the meaning of proper accommodation?
It was never meant to be considered in reference to the
rank of the parties. If it we., and the eommeeder•in•cbiet
of her Majesty's forces was billeted on • publican, there
was not • house of public entertainment in the
country wou!el be fit for a gentleman of rack. The
defendant had offered the beet room he had in the
house ; it was a dean and comfortable room. Ho was
told the house we. a common lodging• house, and there
were many prostitutes near it. The house ease within the
range of a registered house, because the detendant allowed
Mr. Moore to use it after 12 o'clock at niitht. With respect
to prostitutes being near the hones, how could Mr. Wratten
help that ? There w•s not a street, court, or alley near the
doeks without shoals of thou unfortanata women. He was
surprised that tams should be billeted in such a quarter
at all. He had no objection to offer his own testimony that
the room was dun and comfortable, for he had been into
the house. He would confidently submit t►e sat of puha
meat did lot require special accommodation, but only
ordinary accommodation.
The police, in answer to Mr. Ingham, said the damn
were quartered at Messrs. Curtle's wine vaults, High.street,
Whitechapel, and wore well satisfied with their quarters
there.

Mr. Child mid, the *Seers were offered the sitting-room,
smoking-room, or the landlord's private room for their use
till they went to bed, and they seed, " be —if I do,"
mobs of publicans," and other offensive epithets.
Licensed vietaallers ought not to be treated to that way.
' Mr. William Moore, who superintends the lodging houses
in the court adjoining the defendant's hotel, said the room
'in question was clean and comfortable. There were two
looking glasses, two basins, and two ewers is the room.
When the officers were shown to the room they said they
' would not go into it, it was a common lodging house. The
private room offered to the two gentlemen was isepetted,
and there was a sofa and pictures in it. He did not let the
room till after 12 o'clock. He let 'soh bed in the room for
ls. Bd. per night, tint if used singly, 2s. 6d. per night. Mr.
Written said, " I don't refuse the acoommodation, but this
fa the only bedroom I can offer you." The oaten refused
the accommodation, sad said they would be if they
stopped there ; they were sot to be humbugged.
By Mr. Ingham—l let beds in the other rooms at from
4d. to 6d. per night.
Mr. Joseph Price, inspector of common lodging homes,
said there were eight lodging houses in thesauri la question.
The room in question was a clean end comfortable one.
The bode were excellent, and the doors were kept very
clean. The room was registered for fear persons, that was
' two in each bed.
_

ihilieat;aid the officers were alleged to have behaved
in av. ry unbecoming stanasr, but he thought they had
behaved with all the temper of men who were Writ' to
sleep in such a plane as was shown to them. The landlord
and his wife appeared to hays acted in • very impertinent
manner. The officers asked who generally slept in the
place, and they were answered, " Why, clock labourers,
German emigrants, sad seamen." The officers would ban
been *teased if they bad shown a little more temper. On
the contrary they behaved well. The landlord of a
public house bad • right to afford " proper accommodation"
to the person billeted. What was proper for workmen or a
private soldier would not be proper for an Aker or a geode-
man. The officers were required to shop in sheets which
had been used by workmen and emigrants. It was meet
improper accommodation to show to any officer or gentle-
man. The law had not been bomplied with, and he land
the defendant 40c, and costs.
