"The business Of the new year be-
gins we'll, though there is still
much of the usual hesitation. In
branches where last years business
was extraordinary and prices have
risen greatly, some pause is natur-
al. though nothing indicates de-
crease of consuming disposition or
purchasing power, but there is con-
tinuing rise IN wages to promote
increase. Stocks have grown weak

binations which promise great
things for trunk lines. The specu-
lalive tone has been largely influ-
enced by London selling, having Tor

to the reduction In the price of SUI

1t was ordered built during the time

walls were built Of adobe and there
were two entrances. one where Nor

A Mild Monday Morning Ses-
sion in Judge Wilcoxs
Tribunal.

( T"enty-one cases made up the caIen-
dar at the Police Court yesterday morn
/ ing. Among them were only seven
charges Of drunkenness, which is a record
for the Saturday to Monday session
. Five cases were continued until today
and the remainder, with two exceptions.
/ were speedily disposed Of.
/ Frank Turk, Of sacred waterfront mem
DRY. was on trial for malicious injury.
( J. Bradford, a sailor of the bark Dunreg-
san, was the complainant. Turk was
charged with petty larceny on the same
account last week, Int the case was noIle
pressed.
Bradford, Ball and Ford. ali sailors. de-
clare that Turk appropriated their chests
ah1 baGs without having received permis-
sion from the owners to do SO. The two
latter contemplate bringing charges SINH
lar to Bradford's against Turk, unless
their property is returned 10 them; there
is also talk of a damage case.
Three sailors from the Dunreggan svore
that they had told Turk and Lewis not to
remove their clothes.
Turk and Lewis took the stand and
swOre that they took the clothes for Sc
curity for a small loan, and with the
owners fun permission. Bradford's
clothes, il appeared. had been taken after
the loan, which amounted TO s., had been
paid back
soon after getting ashore, the men Of
the Dunreggan changed their quarters
from Turk and Lewis establishment to
the Sailors Home and then the storm
commenced to brew. Two dollars each
was demanded Of them, which they say
was not due, and because they refused to
pay, their property was retained.
Bradford's evidence was to the effect
that he had paid s. for the 8 loaned The
other two men told the same story. Lewis
denied that the loans had ever been re-
paid.
Judge Wilcox decided that Turk and
Lewis were in the wrong in taking the
clothes after having been warned to leave
them alone, and held Turk for trial in
80 bail.
David Aea, charged with desertion, was
discharged. His Honor said that as Mrs.
Aea was loving in another direction, he
could not well order David to support his
wife and her paramour. as defendant had
clearly not deserted without cause, he was
ordered released
One of the DRINKS, who spoke with
soft italian accent, said in part:
'Gooda, Your Honor, never have been
in the Pollca Court before and If you let
Il me go will pay ten dollars IL you
catcha me here again"
Il don't doubt your word replied the
