LAST OF THE DETECTIVE CASES.


A Great Many Indictments were
Found, but There was Not Single
Conviction when All the Facts
kwero Given.
I IA the Criminal Court this morning AS
sistant District Attorney Taggart, by per-
mission of the Court, entered nollo pros.
in the case of James A. McDevitt charged
with violating section 357 of tho Revised
Statutes in accepting reward from James
wilkinson for recovering stolen property.
Mr.. Taggsrt said that in view Of the
disposition made in the other cases, and
this one of his own knowledge being weaker
than either of the others, he thought that
he was justified in asking the dismissal.
This was the last Of the batch Of indict-
ments found against the ex-detectives and
out of which not single conviction came.
There were some sixty-two OF the indict-
ments, and five trials only had, all the
other cases being dismissed. Every hearing
finished with an acquittal, and the princl-
pal witnesses in each case were ex-convicts
Of the penitentiary, some Of them being
pardoned out, that being the price OF their
testimony to give their evidence.
It was a spectacle never before witnessed
in court of this District, and Judge
wylio availed himself Of every opportunity
TO condemn IL, and 1t is safe to say that
had law and the rules Of evidence permit
ted no would not have sat upon the bench
and allowed such disgrace, both to the
Court and public.

their horses to salute at the Judges stand
when Orator, who had gone on further than
the rest before he was pulled up, was noticed
to suddenly collapse and fall upon the track.
IL was thought for a moment that Hayward,
his rider, had gone down under him, but the
figure Of the jockey was presently seen up
right. There was a great swarming OF spec
tators from tho paddock 10 tho spot, and there
Hayward was found standing unframed. But
at his feet Orator lay dead. An oyerstraln had
broken The horses heart. He was Just turn
Ing him toward the judges stand, Hayward
explained, when something seemed TO give
way in the animal, and all at once, without q
gasp or struggle, he dropped upon tho track.
The Jockey had slipped or his back. as tho
Orator was dead. Orator was n bay colt, by
Infused, out OF olitipa. He belonged 10 Messrs.
Appleby and johnson, who bought him as a
yearling and entered him In several races, of
which he won this season three'quarter mile
dash at Jerome Park. His owners had hopes
OF his making good record on the turf.

Tho case of VIM. Barnes, tho young man
who was shot by Policeman Ellis on tho
sth of last month while in tho act of steal
ing a hooking bird, was called for trial in
the Police Court this afternoon. The case
was deferred until to-day on account Of the
wound received by tho defendant. He
camc into court on crutches this morning,
and was defended by Mr.. Ed Wright.
Tiny Garrett, of1t06 Q street, stated that
her bird was worth $50. On tho night in
question she was aroused by cries of stop
thiofw and looking out, she saw the defend
ant in custody of Officer Ellis, who in
formed her that Barnes had stolen her
hooking bird.
Officer Ellis stated that he saw the
defendant on tho piazza of Miss CARROTS
house and saw him take the bird out of
the cage and then jump to tho ground. He
gave chase and they both foil into an areaway
and Barnes gained on him and no shot at
him three times, the last shot striking
Barnes in the hip.
Special Officer Lloyd corroboratod this
statement.
Evidence as to the defendants good
character was put in.
Mr.. Wright said he wished to put in evil
dence to show that the defendant was
drunk at the time and there was no inten-
tion to commit larceny, and that 1t was all
the result of drunken spree.
