POLICE COURT

Yesterday mornings sitting of the police court was very tame, comparatively and the cases were nearly all of minor interest. The docket opened with a case against a coored boy, Willie Freeman, one of Cap tain Weirs finds, charged with jumping on and off of the street cars. The captain doesn't like to see little boys endangering their lives; neither does Judge Feagin, so he fined little Willie $2.
 Nick Dalton, white, was charged with snatching H out of the hand of I. Young as the latter sat in a barber shop chair. On trial, however, the fact developed that at the outside Young had only s2S0 in his hand. Daltons crime was accordingly only petit larceny. He was fined s25 and thirty days.
 Bob Williams, colored was fined s5 for trying to pull down telephone pole in Sec ond avenue while on drunken spree.
 Mabel Anderson, Gertie Howell and J. A. Bull, all colored, jumped on Jim Kelly with beer bottles and came near injuring him seriously. Bull and Kelly were each fined s and costs.
 August steinkimpt, white on a ID. e" charge, was fined s5 and costs. As the de- fendant failed to turn up for trial, a for feiture was taken against his bondsmen.
 Lewis Scott a yellow cripple and an old offender, was fined s5 and costs for dis orderly conduct.
 Jack Johnson's plain drunk cost him s5 and costs Jack is colored.

An Important Amendment

Three important amendments were adopted, one creates a judge advocates corps; another abolishes prize money, and third provides for the retirement on three quarters pay of enlisted men and petty off, cers in the navy after thirty years service. But the most important change in the bill as reported, was the adoption after a hard fight of a substitute for the organization of the marine corps by which the corps is to consist of 5000 enlisted men and petty off, cers with general officers and staff. This will increase the marine corps by 300 men and increase the cost of it's maintenace $1,500 GOO. Several unimportant bills were passed by unanimous consent before the personel bill was taken up.
