POLICE COURT CASES.
Judge Wilcox Handles Another
Calendar With Despatch.

Another army OF lawbreakers faced
Judge Wilcox yesterday morning to re-
ceive sentences. Most OF them were
the Chinese hucksters arrested for
selling goods on King street. and a
good many Of them we're sailors who
were just ordinary DRINKS, as they are
called in the Police Court
The Chinese offenders were arrayed
in "a long line clear across the court
room and a plea Of guilty was entered
for them. IL was explained TO the
Judge that the men were small mer-
chants who had lost their all In the
great fire and who, upon being dis
charged from quarantine, had started
TO earn a living by vending vegetables
and fruits on the King street sidewalk
near the depot.
As they were ignorant OF the law
against street vending. and In consider
alton of their late hard luck, the Dep
uty Marshal asked that the men be
reprimanded and discharged. This was
done and the poor Pakes went away
wiser men, but troubled as TO how or
where they could carry on their trades.
Kali, who was caught selling opium.
was up for trial yesterday and the case
against him for selling opium was no.le
prOse'd The lesser charge OF having
opium in possession was entered and
Judge Wilcox fined him $3.50 and costs.
In sentencing Kali the Judge said that
the native had probably been led astray
by somebody. He berated him very
sOundly for betraying his trust as a
Government emplOye. and said that II
he thought he was not the tool OF some
body else the judgment Of the Court
wouIdahave been much more severe.
KeaIOhanui, a native woman, was
reprimanded and discharged. She plead
guilty OF selling liquor without a IL
.cense. u was her first offense and the
Judge told her that II she broke her
promise never 20 do IL again" 60 would
90 hard with her. In reprimaud.ng her
Judge Wilcox said II she was poor
lone widow trying 20 support herself
and a large family by selling gin she
would have some sympathy. As she
was married and il comfortable cir
cumst3nces. she had no excuse for
breaking the law.
The FalkenberE larceny case took NJ
the best part OF the morning and all
Of the afternoon session. The case for
the prosecution was finished. and, as
the defense submitted their side OF the
case on argument without testimony.
the Court. after the prosecution had
closed, took the matter under advise
ment. 4 decision will be rendered this
morning.
