MUST, LEG OR NO LEG.
Justice Grady Sends an Ambu-
lanco After a Defendant.
Lawyer Pleaded that Heinrich
Leg Was Broken.
But the Magistrate Was Tired Of
Nearing that Excuse.

Justice Grady. who sat in the Tombs
Police Court this morning. adopted the
unusual method of sending an ambu-
lence to the home of a man who was
wanted on the charge of grand larceny.
This was after long wrangle with the
lawyer for the accused, and his instruc-
tions to the sergeant of the court squad
were to have the man on hand by
o'clock, whether sick or well.
The alleged offender Is John Heinrich.
jr., ex-Secretary OF the Star Building
and Loan Association, who Is accused of
appropriating some OF he Association's
money to his own use
Heinrich was arrested on warrant
obtained by Christian Peterson, Presi-
dent OF the Association. on June % last.
ceived $50 from one of the members and
failed to turn 1t over.
Heinrich was arrested at his home l0l
Varick street. and on being arraigned
pleaded not guilty. and demanded an
examination. The case was set down
for July 1. Michael Kennedy, a Beach
street liquor dealer. supplying the $1,000
bail.
On the date named Heinrich failed to
appear but the Justice was shown a
certificate from Dr. {. j. MusgIove, OF
GO Monroe street, TO the effect that the
accused had sprained his leg and was
confined to his bed. The case has been
adjourned four times since then. ON
each occasion a fresh certificate was
produced showing that the mans leg
was encased In plaster OF Paris.
The case was up again this morning,
and Lawyer Philips produced another
certificate simia to the others. He
asked an adjournment. Justice Grady
was angry. He asked a dozen questions
or so, and then told Lawyer Philips he
should have his client In court by 2
1T is impossible" said the lawyer.
II cannot do So
But you must" cried the Judge.
This Court has stood enough of this.
Even Il his foot is in plaster. he can get
down here"
, LAYER Gr Philips protested and then the
Very well, then; since you won't have
him here. 1 Will get him myself"
The lawyer laughed. but stopped when
Justice Grady called for the Sergeant.
Ring up an ambulance ana go TO
that man here without fail. Take him
out OF bed II he is in it, Get him here
any way"
Before the Sergeant departed Lawyer
Philips pleaded that as his client was
out on bail he could not be dragged To
court in that manner.
He will not be out on bail when we
get him now" was the retOrt. His
bondsman has surrendered him. or
rather, he will to-day.
This staggered the lawyer, who hur-
ried out.
