Yesterday morning arrested Gustave Steinbub.

on a charge OF vagrancy. After the prisoner had
been placed in cell the doorman found him bleeding
from the mouth and called ambulance. The sur
geop on his arrival found that Steinbub had
chewed his tongue and had bitten his lip After
dressing his injuries the surgeon left the station
and Steinbub was returned to his cell. There he
tore off the bandages and for the second time the
surgeon was called. Steinbub again ripped the
bandages on and when he was taken to the Lee
Avenue Police Court scarcely able TO stand JUS
tice Kramer was on the bench. and at once ordered
an ambulance surgeon called This man is more
OF a fit subject for a hospital than police court.
