A Mother Locked Up In a Cell with Her Dead
Child.

Child.
About halfpast ten O'Clock on Thursday evening
q poor woman named Catharne Robertson, who re-
sides at No. Charlton street. visited the Church Of
St. Alphonsus, In Thompson street, having in her
arms at the time sickly infant. The crowd in and
about the little church was very dense, and the
woman had great diflculty in making her way
through it on leaving the church. On reganihg the
street. to her inexpressible horror she discovered
that the infant in her arms was dead, and In the
poignancy Of her anguish gave vent to the most
heartrendng cries, which had the effect Of gather
ing about her quite crowd Of persons eager to as
certain the cause OF her distress. An 0fcer OF the
Eighth precinct, not fully understanding the cir
cumstances Of the case and thinking that the
was purposey creating disorder, took her In charge
aud conveyed her to the station house. Captain
sent her TO be locked up In the Fifteenth pre-
cInct station. When she was brought before the
S dea sna as wss 10
prison the woman with the body Of her dead child,
which she s5s refused to gve Up and teesraRhed to
woman he had sent to their station had dead child
in ner armsf "Yes," was the curt reply; clock her
geant was ioath to put the woman in cell, and
allowed her to remain In the central room of the
house. where she was seated with the corpse clasped
10 her bosom, rocking herself to and fro
tain Charles A. Cafrrey. "Whats thai woman doing
explained the case TO him, adding that It would be
nhuman under the circumstances to place the pris-
oner I'm cell, even II she were intoxicated, as
charged by Captain NILS. The pompous peeler
looked defiance at the humane sergeant, and with
his usual good Judgment peremptorily ordered the
woman to be locked up in cell Discipline is dis
cipne, and so the sergeant obeyed. Yesterday
morning the dead child was taken from the sorrow
Ing mother, and through the peltng rain and snow,
Win her heart loaded down with grief and her limbs
trembling under her, IN company with the vile crew
that had Inhabited the Fifteenth precinct cells all night
she was marched the Jefferson Market Police Court
when called before the Judges desk she staggered
forward, with her head bowed down on her chest
and her face showing in lis every lneament the
struggle that was going within her to master the
agony that could not be mastered. IL Is needless TO
state that Judge Ledwith did not sustain the charge
made against her.
there may have been before now outrages intend
Cd otherwise. by the police by which citizens
made 20 ser, but never before In the annals OF the
police history OF this city has there been which
In utter heartiessnes and arocty could be compared
20 the one recorded above. The Police Commission
should see 10 10 that Captain Mills and his worthy
abctor Captain Caffey, arc made TO understand that
n policee captain II not by order OF his ofIlce q
brute, empowered 10 act out the dictates OF his win
and passion regardless OF all those rules that dstln
gllsh humanity frOm the brute creation.
