POLICE BOARD MEETING.

Capt. Kane Given Merit Mark for Good
Work and Sergt. Welcl Tried on the
Charge of Conduct Unbecoming an
Ofieer.
The Board of Police Commissioners
held lengthy meeting Monday night,
being in session from before o'clock
until nearly II. Most of the time was
consumed in hearing evidence and con-
sidering charges against Sergeant Harry
.. WEIGH, who was accused of entering
a place where liquor is sold, while in
uniform aud not required to do so 10
the performance of his duty. As the
evidence was conflicting, the board de-
cided not to pass upon the matter
finally until next Monday night,
although it was decided that the
charges had been sustained, by the
sergeant's admissions.
| The place referred to in the charges
| against the sergeant was tho Hotel
Wilmington, and he was accused Of
being there one night early in January
and on the 18th and 18th OF March.
| Sergeant WEIGH admitted that he was
\ In the vestibule OF the hotel on three
occasions and took cigars from n glass
each time, but denied drinking any
thing. Patiolnen Mcbride and Riley
were with him each time and Patrol.
man Solomon was with him once. All
took cigars.
| The patrolmen testified that they
took cigars and tho sergeant took some
liquid in glass. Neither Solomon nor
Riley knew what it was, but Mcbride
thought it was whisky. Daniel Horn
and William Walters, who are con
nected with the hotel, said they had
given the officers cigars in glass, but
had never given them any liquor and
had not seen the sergeant or patrolmer
drink anything. William G. Lofiand
one OF the proprietors, said he had
seen cigars handed to the sergeant anc
patrolmen, but never saw any liquor
handed to them. 1t Is CUSTOMARY
thing to treat policemen to cigars.
