TWO CHIMES WITNESSES.

An Interpreter in United States Com
missioner Lamar's Oriental Court.
An examination was held by United
States Commissioner Frank Lamar yester-
day which had nearly all the earmarks of
an Oriental court. Mackey Spencer, the
negro who is alleged to have passed the
spurious silver dollar on Wing Sing. was
the defendant in the case. In the absence
of two of the material witnesses for the
government, Commissioned Lamar examined
Wing Sing, John Sing, and tue defendant
and adjourned the inquiry uutil 10 O'Clock
this morning.
Wing Sing was the first witness called.
He was unable TO wrestle with United
States, and Charley Lee acted as interpre-
ter. Wing Sings statement, as rendered in
the kings English, was sthe effect that he
"knew the defendant | knew him in my
shop He came in TO get his clothes and
give me the ticket ! told him that was bad
money. He sal it was good rs gold. told
him l lot somebody see that money; il was
bad, when he run out Of the shop. | got his
ticket. ! saw him on the corner OF Brougn-
ton street on the same evening, ana asked
Policeman Bender TO arrest him, when the
defendant he run away. l am sure that is
the man who passed the money. l knew it
by his face. y
John Sing corroborated Wings state
ment, Charley Lee acting as interpreter for
John, who was not able TO talk passable
English
Aackey Spencer, tho defendant, did not
need an interpreter. He denied being down
town on the day in question, but his state
ments were conflicting as 30 where he was
on tdat morning; as, for instance, he said
that he was at home aud got his brea kfast
ot ofglo,y and tl,as. f,,l IL
mony he said he was down at Payson
Williams, eating ice cream. lie wanted to

TO ELECT A NEW CHIEF.
GEN. ANDERSON'S SUCCESSOR TO
BE CHOSEN THIS MONTH.

Alderman Wells in Favor of Abolish

Senator Brown.
The City Council voted last night to fill
the vacant Office of Chief of Police at its
next meeting, May 80. The Clerk OF Coun-
to be held on that date.
Alderman Wells opposed an election at
this time. Before the vacant office
is filed, he wants the office of As
sistant Chief abolished. Five years
ago, he said, tde Council abolished
the office of Lieutenant of Police and
created the office of Assistant Chief There
were two Lieutenants, and by doing away
with the officer the expenses of the depart
ment were cut down 81 800. The next step
to be taken, he believes, is the doing away
with the Assistant Chief, reducing the de
partment's expenses another 81 500. This
amount would very nearly pay the salaries
of two patrolmen, and the Alderman thinks
that the department needs fewer officers
and more privates. There are four Ser
geants, and these, with the Chief he be-

city, and the Ocean Steamship Company
has paid 5000 for the conduct of its force
making the office worth 81, 800 year.
