 Judge Cable presided over thr Thanks giving day session of the city court yesterday. and the several cases were disposed Of in short meter. The cases were of the ordinary petty character. and consequently but little time was wasted In mrtlnR out Justice to them. Among those cases which disgraced the docket were those against the eleven women and three men who were arrested In the raid upon the notorious houses of Wooster. Falr and Union streets Wednesday night. None of the women were present In court but all were represented by counsel, who succeeded In having all the cases continued until this morning. when It Is expected all will settle.
 John Smoker and Ellen Batey faced Judge Cable to answer to charges of adultery. The state was not ready to proceed with the case. and 1t was there- fore continued until this morning. The couple were found occupying the same room at 46 Putnam street about o'clock yesterday morning by Sergeant Dunn and Officer Frank D. Cook. The officers were armed with a warrant, which had been sworn out by the wo- mans husband. In the room also were the two children of Mrs. Batey. one about eight years old and the other only seven months. The quartet was bun- dled into the patrol wagon and taken to police headquarters, where they spent the balance of the night in the lookup. Both deny their guilt. Smoker it is claimed, is simply a boarder at the | house.
 John Henley attempted to make prep- arations for Thanksgiving feast Wed- nesday afternoon, but the police inter- fered and spoiled his little game. Han- ley had no money with which to buy a turkey, and so he thought he would have to be satisfied with a piece of beef Accordingly as he was walking along Crown street he saw wagon :n front of Ihne's saloon at the corner of Orange street from which shoulder of beef was protruding in tempting view. Without a moments hesitation Hanley appropriated the side and was walking off with it when he was brought to stop by Special Constable Charles w. Prindle, who happened to see the | transaction. In the city court yester- day morning Hanley pleaded poverty, but was fined s3 and costs, amounting to $S.63. As he had not the wherewithal to pay he went to jail where Jailor O'Keefe gave him an excellent turkey dinner.
 John Doyle, transient, realized that a cold winter was coming and in order to be prepared for it stole an overcoat from Leopold Besser. He was caught, however, with the garment in his pos- session, and arrested and charged with theft. The severity of the winter will not trouble him for the next month at least, as he will have to spend that amount of time at Landlord O'Keefe's Whalley avenue hotel working out 8 fine of $7 and $6.24 costs
 William Pohlman was fined $2O and costs, amounting to $s.7O more, for asa saulting Joshua Langlois at Germania hall early yesterday morning. The lat- ter's face was cut open with a beer glass during the row. Pohlman paid $28.70 into the city treasury.
