TIE COMMISSION DELIDEBATES.
Suggestions Made by Chief Dolan Find
Case at Hand-It Seems Irregular.
But what Else Could BE Dones

At tie time Chief Dolan made his
annual report to the Board of Police
Commissioners he made a number OF
suggestions relative to TIE extending Of
his jurisdiction over prisoners After
the session OF Municipal Coura Saturday
morning the judge does not sit again
until Monday morning 30 that parties
arrested after 10 o'clock Saturday remain
In the cells for nearly forty eight hours,
with the exception Of such dTunks as
can pay 81 fine aud costs, and they are
released on Clerk Adamss order
IL frequently happens that children,
women aud men OF fairly respectable
character are brought in. aud ia these
cases the chief thinks. and reasonably
that he should be allowed to use his
discretion As to holding them, or
allowing them to 60 until Monday
When the matter was suggested TO the
commission Messrs Pyle and Lawson
were appointed to confer with Judge Ball
as to the feasibility and advisabilily OF
the plan. A case chancod to be right at
hand
Several weeks ago Peter McGlnohey,
Reddy Powell and Michael Mcdonnell
we're arrested on Saturday night about
midnight at Market street bridge for
drunkenness They were not very druuk.
but rather inclined TO be noisy and the
arrest was q matter OF precaution Ao
Glinchey had been working for Officer
Ford, and he became responsible for
his fne In case he was hned. His
name was not placed on the docket.
Rsddy and Michael were held until
Monday and then fnsd 81 aud cofs Ga
the trial McGllnchey foolishly appeared
a. a witness and tried TO show that the
officer who arrested the trio had hit him
In the Jaw with his club-for nothing.
After Reddy and Mcdonnell had been
fined boat csptAIn asked Judge Ball TO
allow them to 10 free as he wanted them
70 work for him. Recognizing that II
WAS a good chance TO clear Wilmington
OF the presence Of two very troublesome
citizens. and trusting perhaps that the
weather clerk might cone to the
rescue and translate the twain
Judge Ball rsmitted the fines aud
allowed both TO 20 free. Then II
was that AcGlinchey's name wss also
stricken from the roll. Ohiosr Ford
stood ready to pay the Cue should any be
imposed but Chief Dolan decided that
this was a good case for the commission
to act on and brought It before that body.
Several witnesses we're heard last even
ing and more will be later on.

Clothes On.
While all was quiet in the heat Of
yesterday afternoon at Market street
bridge, Joseph Whltten, well known
resident of West Wilmington, strolled
down Market street and walked across
the bridge, his spaniel dog following close
behind.
Suddenly he pulled of his boots and
leaped into the ChIistiana, never at
tempting TO remove his c.otchiDg OF leave
on shore his watch and purse Whether
OF heroiosl turn OF mind, or simply to
follow suit 1t is only conf sctured, but the
dog made similar leap to that Of his
master and was soon padding around
where the man bad gone down

Jumped In to the rescue he grasped
Wbitten's ccat and swan with him to
the th )re, keeping out Of the reach Of
bis arms. Whitten seemed TO have all
bis senses and helped TO twist the water
from his clothing after which he hung
the apparel out to dry.
