JUDGE MILLS, LECTURE.
Severely Criticises Policeman
While Passing Upon n Case.

severely Crittcfses n Policeman
While Passing Upon n Case.
II am greatly surprised" said Judge Mills
today In the United States branch of the
Police Court. that any United States Off
Ger OF magistrate should issue a warrant
for the arrest of a constable, when he is
simply discharging his duty A constable.
when ne undertakes to enforce a writ is
sued by a magistrate, is entitled to the pro-
lection of the court. and, SO far as I am
concerned. he shall have it.
Il will say further that the policeman
who is so stupid as to arrest a constable
for disorderly conduct because a crowd
gathers around him ought to be removed
from. the force"
These remarks were made by the Judge
In reference to the arrest of Constable VIII
liam F. Salter, who, with William H
Robinson. was, apprehended while serving a
writ of repletin on the latter. The evil
dence showed that Mr.. Salter had writ OF
set Of harness purchased BY Robinson, Tut
not fully paid for. and that while serving
the paper a son OF Robinson interfered,
causing large crowt6to assemble, and as
an outcome Messrs: Sa1ter and Robinson
were Doth placed under arrest.
In Diminishing the chaege 8gainst both the
accused Judge Mills said:
There Is wide misunderstanding on
the pdrs D! poncemeH and some citizens as
to the rights of a constable in serving a
writ and the privilege Of the party upon
whom the writ is seiHed an resisting the
constable. It Is the daaty Of the citizen to
obey, to yield to the aconstR ale; for II the
latter has acted in an unlawful manner the
aggrieyed person hasfga remedy through
civil procedure. The Hohstable Is bonded
the magistrate by whom tte wri- was is
sued Is bonded. and the patty who sues out
writ Of replevin haA to Give bond.
1T should also be hornd in mind that
the police officers have no Fight to interfere
with constable in the discharge Of his
duty. It is their duty to preserve the
of arresting all the narties who NAV be
present at the scsne of the controversy
and taking part therein is calculated to
create wrong Impressions on the part OF
the public, and to lead to much needless
trouble.
When a breach Of the peace occurs 1t
Is the duty OF the policeman to arrest the
offender and not the officer who Is serving
the writ"

TWO INSANE PATIENTS.
Police Arrest Parties Who Are Vic
Tins of Imagination.

Police Arrest Parties Who Are Vic
Tins of Imagination.
The police had two insane persons to deal
with yesterday. and in each the patient
was a resident of New Jersey. One of
them, Oliver c. Holmes, will be taken
home by his brother, while the other man.
John A. Reilly, will be given ticket and
started home alone. Holmes is travelling
salesman from Trenton, and has been in
the city several days, stopping at the St.
James. Early yesterday morning he was
locked up on a charge of intoxication, and
again in the aft rnoon he fell into the
hands of the police. He imagines that he
is going to reorganize the police force here
and do many things which may be number
ed among the impossibilities. Among other
vagaries he imagines he has been elected
to the Senate. His brother will probably
take him away late this afternoon.
Reilly says his home is In Newark, at
No. Al Magazine street He was arrested
in the Capitol about o'clock in the after
noon by Capitol Policeman Haskell.
Reilly seemed to have an idea that he
owned the big building. and also that he
had immense wealth. At No. police sta
ton he said he had tramped and freighted
his way here. When he had been given
plenty to eat, he appeared much better, and
expressed desire to remain here and work
for Uncle Sam. While the doctors found
that his mind was affected, they thought
he was able to return home without an at
tendant.

PUT UP A WARM FIGHT.
Deacon Dodge and ofacer o'Hare Have
a wild scrimmake.

4 free-for all fight took place on
Main street this afternoon, in compari-
son with which any of the regular
local ring encounters pale and sink into
insignifcanee. The primary cause of
the trouble was farmer named Jack
son. who had been drinking all day
and trying to pick a fight with Deacon
Dodge, who was also three sheets IN
the wind. Deacon treated the
matter good humoredly, until
Jackson struck him couple of
blows. At this juncture Officer Owen
O'Hare arrived on the scene and asked
Dodge to desist, threatening to lock
him up if he did not. Dodge offered to
fight the entire police force with one
hand, backing up his words by attack
ing O'Hare and administering to that
individual an good pounding.
Three bystanders then seized
the negro and enabled the
policeman to draw his club,
which he proceeded to use
with telling effect on his assailant's
head. Suddenly there was a parting
in the crowd and the mayor appeared
armed with a gold headed cane, with
which he did yeoman service in helping
to subdue Dodge. The seance ended
by O'Hare taking the colored man to
the lookup, where he Immediately en-
gagged in mbat with another invidual,
who was enjoying Sheriff AbePs hos
pitality. The mix-up entirely out
classed the time -honored Donneybrook

HEARS TWO CASES AT ONCE.
Justice and Court Commissioner Slater
Very Busy This Afternoon.


One of the strangest conditions in
which any legal official ever found him
self was that in which John c. Slater
was in this afternoon, in which he was
compelled to sit as justice of the
peace and a court commissioner at one
and the same time, and in each capac
ity he was trying a case, one case being
in the regular court room and the 9TH
er in Chief of Police Stemm's Office.
The Justice probably broke record in
this, for it is not believed that any
Judge ever before had two cases going
at once, over both of which he was
presiding.
In his own court room a small case in
which a matter of wages was involved
was tried, Henry Hastings and Norman
Baker appearing as the opposing conn-
sci. In Chief Stemm's Office there was
another hearing of the case OF Peter
Hauser VS.. Mrs. Mary Whitley, in
which Mrs. Whitley gave her side of
the controversy. This is the case in
which Hauser asks for $40, 900 for per-
sonal damages alleged to have been
sustained by the attack of bull in
July, 1896. In this case L. G. BONN
rich and A. E. Buckmaster appeared
as plaintiffs counsel and P. B. Nelson,
of Racine, represented Mrs. Whitley.
The situation was very peculiar one.
The greater portion of the time Mr..
Slater acted as justice in the
small suit, merely stepping occasion
ally into the next room to keep
watch of proceedings in the other case
over which he presided as court COM
missioner The testimony in the Hauser
VS.. Whitley case was taken by stem
ographer, thus relieving him of the ne
cessity of being obliged to hear all that
was going on.

LADY ELGIN DISASTER.
Thirtv-seventh Anniversary to be Cele-
brated in Milwaukee Sept. g.

brated in Milwaukee Sept. 8.
The thirty seventh anniversary of
the Lady Elgin disaster occurs Sept. s.
1t will be celebrated by the survivors
at Milwaukee,
The history of the Lady Elgin dis
aster is simple. The steamer was a
side wheeler, one of the BEST on the
lake at that time, engaged in the pas
senger and freight trade between Chi
cage and Lake Superior points. The
Union guards, one of the crack military
regiments Of the day, arranged an ex-
cursion to Chicago on the Lady Elgin,
and the party left the Dousman dock,
at Walkers point, somewhere about
midnight on Sept. Z. They made the
run to Chicago all right, spent the day
there and started for home about mid
night Sept. s. Between 1:30 and 2
o'clock OIL the morning Of Sept. 6, in
the midst of squat, the Augusta and
Lady Elgin collided off Winnetka.
The Augusta went on to Chicago, but
the Lady Elgin was almost cut in two
and sank almost Immediately. The
number lost was between 400 and 500,
variously estimated. The number
saved was ninetyfive.

A CHALLENGE TO PROVE IT.
Let Us Get Down to Bottom Facts Now
About the Old Settlers

About the Old Settlers
The Gazette of Wednesday evening
contained an article criticising this
paper for its assertions that Mr.. Dut-
ton was off his base. The article is so
evidently piece of political sorehead-
ism that it is not worthy of notice.
Brer. Culley didn't need the word
communicated at the top of it to
show that his political manager was its
author. Just to make things sufi-
GENTLY interesting to be of trife of
Importance we challenge the said man
ager to prove that at any time there
has ever been any politics in any old
settlers gathering. We don't want
any vague assertions now. Let us get
down to facts. Not only that. but We
challenge it to prove that any of the
speakers ever put forward there were
representatives on any occasion of the
aggregation of pusilanimous asses, "
or that the immoral twins" ever
even visited the grounds. Now that
an attack has been made openly,
though under the cowardly cover of
mere assertion without proof, let US
get down to bottom facts and find out
what the motive of all this is. The
issue can be clearly joined. The other
side has thrown down the gauntlet by
declaring that there was politics in
the Old Settlers meetings. We deny
it. The burden Of proof lies on the
other side. Now let them prove it.
