POLICE INSPECTION.

The Officers Present a Fine Appearance
at the Monthly Round-Up.
The monthly police inspection took
place yesterday morning on Third street
above Broadway, the officers of the
night and afternoon watch being pres
ent. There were tifty-fve officers in
cluding the mounted squad, present, un-
der the command of Captain Roberts,
and they were inspected by Chief of Po-
lice Glass and Mayor Hazard. The men
presented fine soldierly appearance,
being thoroughly equipped and going
through the foot movements with
steadiness and precision. The three
platoons were under the command of
Sergeants Marten Jeffries and Fowle.
From a strict military standpoint the
criticism imight be made that the men
should hold their arms steady while on
the march, that the buttons should be
FURNISHED, and the belts cover the lower
button Of the blouses. Taking the in
Hpection as whole, however, the men
made most creditable appearance.

papers in front of the Hollenbeck, irri-
tated old Burke and he forthwith kicked
him three or four times on the shins.
Officer Bates arrested Burke, who was
fined $15 for his conduct. As he has no

that time. and was quick enough to ar
rest one of the Cinnamon, but it was
Wong Gee. He was charged with dis
turbing the peace. The policeman

as there was no testimony to show that
he had not acted in self-defense, he was
