POLICE CouRr.-Judge Lowe examined thir.
teen cases at the Police Court, on Saturday
morning, and most Of these were without in
terest.
Catharine Wilsonalias Jane McCourt, whom
we noticed in our last issue as having been ar
arrested for shop-lifting, was before the Court,
and upon examination found guilty. She was
sentenced to the County Jail for term of five
months. "''t
A few days since we gave an account of a
difficulty between two men named Henry
Kettleman and Arnold Windler, that took
place near the corner of Race street and Four
teenth, in which Kettleman was quite severely
injured.
The case was called in the Police Court, day
before yesterday, when Windler's attorney
announced that 1t had been amicabIy settled.
The Court, however, insisted upon an exami-
nation Of the affair, and the fact was ELECTED
that the defendant had given the man he had
Injured, who happened to be his tenant, $1I
and receipt for two months rent, providing
ne would not appear against him on trial.
This appeared to Judge Lowe to be tacit
acknowledgment of the offense, and he fined
Windler $25 and costs, and sentenced him TO
three days imprisonment in the County Jail.
