POLICE NOTES.
Only One Case Of Any importance.


Less than one hour was consumed by
the Police Justice Yesterday morning in
disposing of the cases on the docket.
II is remarkable that in city Of one
hundred thousand inhabitants that orly
one Police Court IA necessary, and the
efficiency Of that court, .and the police
force keep it so quiet
A few parties were before the court
yesterday on the simple charge of being
drunk. They were fined 80 ard costs.
Several other trihing charges were SINH
larly disposed Of The cases we're either
dismissed or the parties were discharged.
The only case of any Importance was
that Of Virginia Randolph (colored) She
was an employe of Mr.. Henry Myers
Mrs. Myers left Virginia in
her dressing room, and left also a
crescent diamond pin valued at s75 on
the mantle piece while she went into an
adjoining room to get a dress and other
articles Of apparel. Returning, she did
not notice that the pin was missing from
the mantle, but shortly afterwards Mrs
Myers looked for the pin and could not
find il.
She was satisfied no one but Virginis
or herself had entered the room where
the pin was, and so swore out warrant
against the woman.
Virginia denied stealing the jewel
but the evidence being against her she
was sent on to the grand jury.

FREDEkICK's DIARY.

An Action for Treason Likely to Result
LONDON, September 29-The Time,
publishes a letter sigued "Juris Consult"
saving that Prince Bismarck argues
against himselfin stating that the crown
Prince Frederick was not entrusted with
State secrets. and that Bismarck's own
reference to the dis;rust entertained by
William !. of Prince Frederick and OF
the English Court, much more resembles
the diyuleing OF secrets Of State than the
publishing OF the diary. The Times cor
respondent at Berlin believes that ine
published extracts Of FREDERICK 8
diary were given out by Dr'
Gefnekin Of Hamburg, who Is a
FREQUENT contributor to English maga,,
zines of German political matters and
who was the confident OF FREDERICK
A Berlin dispatch to the STANDARD says
that il the person whose name was gwen
to the public prosecutor of the Deutseh1
Runds,lau protests to be that OF the per
son who contributed the extracts from
Frederick's diary, an action probably ior
treason, will be brought against him IN
the imperial court at Leipzig. The pup
