In the Police Court yesterday Fred
Steineke, charged by George Bierken
with disturbing his peace. was dis

been working for Steineke at his Kstreet-

Judge Cravens said as nobody was
hurt and every body was drunk, he would
find Steineke not guilty, and dismissed
the case.
Joe Plaza, found guilty of disturbing
the peace, was sentenced TO thirty days in

August Braunschweiger, who is serv-

County Jail for assault to murder, longs
to breathe again the air Of freedom, and
no doubt the Sheriff's officers would re-

Braunsehweiger is one of the ugliest
men ever sent to a prison, and has man
aged somehow in keeping out OF the

do. He IS the same fellow who, after the

Queer Mystery the Police Are Trying to Clear
Up-FOul Play Suspected.

The police are now trying to solve the
mystery surrounding the disappearance of
Mrs. Nellie Williamson. One night about
three weeks ago she came to the station
house, carrying q three-months-old child
In her arms and followed by her husband,
John A. Williamson. At the police station
she told pitiful story of abuse and NAL
treatment by her husband. The husband
denied the statements made by her, but
when turnkey Long expressed doubt as
to his veracity. and expressed it a. his opin-
ion that he was guilty of the charges made by
his wife, he left at q rather lively pace.
and disappeared MP Pearl street. Mrs. Will
hanson told Journal reporter at the timo
that, after her husband beat her unmercl-
told any one OF his treatment he would kill
her. She remained at the police-station
that night with Matron buchanan, and the
next morning left with her child to 60 to
the house of some friends in the city. but
didn't say whore the friends lived. Since
that time she has not been seen nor
heard of.
Yesterday afternoon Mrs. Baldwin. liv-
officer Grothaus that child had been left
at her house by O Mrs. Wescott, living at
81 South Meridian street. and Mrs. Jearl
living at 317 East Washington street, with
the understanding that it was to be called
for again in q short time. but as it had not
been called for she wanted tho police to in
vestigate the matter. Mrs. Westcott, who
is an aunt of Mrs. Williamson, says that
Thursday morning Mr.. Williamson came to
her house with the child and asked her If
she would take caro- of 1t for few minutes
for HIM. She agreed to do so, and
asked him where Nellie, his wife, was.
He said he did not know anything about
her. The questions that are puzzling the
police are how Mr. Williamson came to
have possession of the child. and what has
become OF his wife. None of her friends or
the police, have seen or heard of her since
she left the station-house. She seems to
have disappeared completely. without
leaving any olew as to her whereabouts.

49,. The Employment of Pinkertons.
ew York Evening Post,


The whole question involved in the en-
ployment of the Pinkert0ns is whether the
owners of property HAYES right to protect
it. Every body knows that the PIDkertons
are employed rs watebmen only In cases
where the public authority is dilatory in
ahOrding protection. People whose prop
erty Is In danger of attack and who are
prevented by yiolence from having access
To 1t. would always prefer to have public
rather than private guards TO protect them.
The cost of the former is paid by the whole
community. while that of the latter falls
on the individual who hires them. More
over. the public guards. being in over
whelming force, are seldom resisted, while
the Pinkertons are always resisted. and
sometimes. as in the present case. over
powered and UNANIMOUSLY maltreated. The
affair at Homestead teaches the lesson very
clearly thus the way To abolish the Pinker-
tons Is TO abolish the need of them. So
LONG as there Is a demand for them there
will be n supply. and instead OF weakening
or being dannted by repuise here and
there, 1t will become more efficient. As
soon as public protection Is gwen promptly
and effectively and generally. the Pinker-
tons as guards will disappear, and not
sooner.
