BEWARE OF FAKE DOCTOR.

Chief of Police Murphy this morning
said he desired to warn the people of Jer
sey City against clever snek thief who
has been operating in Newark and who
may try his luck in this city.
His game is new one, going to the
house he intends to loot, the thief intro
duces himself as DR.. Brown of the Health
Department. He says that he has been
sent to test the water fro mthe various
faucets throughout the house.
He goes to the kitchen faucet and draws
a glass full of water. Into this he places
a white tablet, telling the persons in the
house that in order to make a proper test
he must wait 20 minutes until the tablet
has dissolved He then demands to be
shown upsairs that he may examine the
water from other faucets.
He repeats the tablet pantomime and at
the end of twenty minutes goes to the
kitchen and examines the first glass of
water After making careful note of the
results Of his supposed investigation he
goes upstairs to do likewise with the other
glasses of water.
In nearly every instance by the time he
has been in the house 20 minutes he has
won the confidence of the persons in the
house and they fail to follow him upstairs

the house the second time he gathers UP
all the jewelry and other valuables he can
find.

Testimony Under the Rule for

Within a few days the Committee on
Ethics of the Hudson County Bar Assoc
citation will hold conference as to the
time for taking testimony under the rule
granted by the Supreme Court why
Counsellors Joseph NJ. Noonan and Alex
ander Simpson should not be disbarred.
The Supreme Court rule is returnable
at the next term of court and it is hoped
that the testimony will be ready by that
time In all probability Attorney General
Grey will conduct the case for the asso-
citation. Representing the defense will be
ex-Judge Thomas F. Noonan, William n.

Some lawyers put forward the state-
ment that there is liable to be a hitch in
the proceedings because of the absence
of the principal witnesses for the people,

.KOUTINCK'S ANTI-CLIMAx.
Judge Blair Lets Him Off With
Fifty Dollars and
Costs.

William Koutinck, the enterprising
young man who was convicted in the Gem
eral Sessions Court last week of forgery,
got off easy this morning.
Judge Blair said to him you have
been convicted of very serious crime for
which you could be sent to State prison
for long term. The circumstances,
however, and representations which have
been made to the Court have induced the
Court to be unusually lenient with you.
The sentence of the law is that you pay
fine of $50 and costs and stand committed
until the finesand costs are are paid.
Koutinck is the young man who has
figured in two or three sensations. Last
June, two days after he was married, he
went out fishing on the Hackensack Riv-
er and got up the material for fake
story that he had been drowned. This
was just after he had sent boy to the
Hudson County Bank to get the forged
check cashed.
His most recent exploit was imposing
fake story on the Morning Journal that
he knew the man who had sent the poison
to Cornish, and that he himself had taken
the poison to the Knickerbocker CLUB
house. His story was quickly exposed,
L
quarters in New York.
Koutinck's father who lives in Spring
street, West Hoboken, says that the boy
ought to be sent to the foolish house.
Michael Broderick and John Curran
who pleaded guilty of breaking into Mag
gle Flemming's house. 316 Henderson
street on February Is, and stealing s5S4,
were sent to State prison for two years
Peter Van Buskirk trampish looking
individual, who had pleaded guilty OF as
saulting two ladies' was sent to the
Penitentiary for eighteen months.
Lawyer John DENIM made an appeal
for John Molloy, who had pleaded guilty
of breaking and entering. This is the
third time Molloy has been in court in
side of two weeks, and each time it was
for breaking into house in Pavonia ave-
nue..
The first time he was acquitted by
jury On the second occasion, week
ago today, he was tried in the Special
Sessions Court and Judge Blair gave him
the benefit of the doubt and acquitted
him Three days afterward Molloy was
caught in the same house and pleaded
guilty.
Mr. DENIM said that Molloy was drunk
and that he was evidently more of a
fool than a criminal. If the Court would
let him go, Mr.. DENIM said, that he
would go off on cattle ship, and would
never bother the Court again.
Judge Blair said the Court had intended
to impose a very severe sentence but
in view of the representations made by
counsel he would sentence Molloy to six
months in the Penitentiary.

CONFLICTING STATEMENTS.
Mr.. Berger and Policeman Griffen
Charges Each Other With Assault.

Max Berger, proprietor of a toy and
notion store at No. 2O7 Mourteenth street,
Hoboken, went to New York on Janu-
ary 2, and after loading up with beer and
whiskey, went thome. His wife made
few remarks to him and he resented them
with great vigor. He smashed the show
case threw the stock around and raised
cain generally.
Mrs. Berger ran out to the sidewalk
and begged somebody to go for police
man. officer Matthew Griffin arrived in
a few minutes, but in the meantime Mrs.
Berger had changed her mind and didn't
want her husband arrested A crowd had
gathered in front of the store.
On seeing the officer Berger turned
down the gas and walking out to the
door asked Griffin what the hell he was
doing there. Griffin ordered him to go
inside
Berger then, according to Griffin's story,
told at Berger's trial in the General Ses-
sions Court today, for assault and battery
on him, seized the policeman, dragged him
into the store. knocked him down and
broke his finger. The policeman is a
much darger man that Berger
The defence is that the policeman and
not Berger was the aggressor. Berger
had been down town and had taken some
drinks On his way back some children
followed him. A friend met him and took
him home He was sober enough to make
a sale. His wife said something to him
which excited his anger and he struck the
showcase with his fist, with no intention
of breaking it, but just to emphasize a re-
mark he was making. His wife went out
on the sidewalk and sent for policeman,
not to have her husband arrested, but to
drive the crowd from in front of the
door.
When Berger opened the door and asked
the policeman what he wanted the police
man attacked him. and struck him un-
der the eye with his club leaving mark
there which will disfigure him for life.
Berger became unconscious and remained
in that condition for few minutes.
Mrs. Berger wanter to wipe the blood
from her husbands face, but the police
man would not allow her to do it. Ber-
ger was dragged to the police station
without a coat or hat and with his face
covered with blood. Both versions OF the
story were sworn to by the witnesses oil
each side and the case was given to the
fury shortly before recess.

manned in the factory over night Her

certain periods Mary would come hone

were on the best of terms until last Sep
tember, when Molineux showed her mar
riage certificate and announced to her
that he could not keep his promise t9
