CHINAMEN AND THEIR DOGS.
Two CeIestIaIs in Police Court for
Keeping Vicious Dogs.

ReepAhE Vicious DOGS.
Chinese laundrymen and dogs played
the comedy roles az yesterdays session
of Police Court and furnished consid-
cradle amusement for Recorder Myrick
and spectators alike. There were two
cases in which Celestials were alleged
tc be the owners of vicious dogs whose
actions had caused the compliments
to think the CANNES were filled with
dope.
Jim Lee of No. PAP Barnard street
appeared With a handsome pointer
that DR.. A. l.. Parks. colored, of No
24O Barnard street, declared was VII
cious. Parks is dentist and charged
that the dog had run some of his Gus
toners away. 1t took up it's abode in
his doorway and not only chased away
those who tried to enter, but according
to Parks, made grabs at him on several
occasions. At times the canine ap-
peared as if it had been hitting the
pipe and snapped at the dentist.
Jim Lee declared that his dog sis a
good little doggy and love me velIy
much. He no bitee this dentist at ali.
He hit my dog with a big lock and
mash him to the flo. My dog ky velly
much, and | ask my dog who hurt him.
He look at dentist fellow, but he only
keep on klying. My dog vellee good
dog; he no bite"
Lee seemed anxious to prove that his
dog is not at all vicious and wanted to
show the traits of the canine by hav-
ing him do stunts in the court room
The Recorder objected to this form of
illustration and it was ruled out. Lee
was dismissed with the admonition if
he does not keep his pet from the place
of Parks, the dog will be killed and
the Chinaman thrown in Jail. The de-
PENDANT seemed pleased with the de-
cision of the Recorder and left the
court room with his dog and wife.
K. Wings dog, at No. 127 Broughton
street, east, tore the trousers of d.
Schroeder without povocatiOn The
complainant stated that he was on his
way to work when the dog rushed
across Broughton street, and in a wild
desire to destroy something took a
piece out of his trousers. To the prose-
cutor the dog appeared to have swal-
lowed several of the strongest pills
probably green ones-in the laundry
mans place. Schroeder requested Wing
to give him $2.25 with which to pur-
chasea new pair of trousers, but the
man from the Far East demurred.
Wing offered to have the rent mend
ed by a tailor, but Schroeder thought
tHdl ne SHOuiu be leCOlnpenSeu Tor the
shock that he experienced when the
Chinaman's dog took hold of him.
Wing said that he couldn't understand
how the dog could have gotten out of
the shop, and he would not believe that
it had been so familiar with the COM
plainant. He felt sure that it must
have been some other black dog He
had great confidence in the offending
canine and displayed handful of brass
tags to show that he had been its proud
possessor since its birth. Wing was
made to pay 81 for the fun his dog had
gotten out of Schroeder.

At yesterdays session of Police
Court Lula Wallace, colored, was re-
manded for trial in the Superior Court
by Recorder Myrick on a charge of as
sault with intent to murder. The pros
eeutmx was Ann Washington. also
colored, who was cut on Harrison
street, in sever. places, on March 20.
The assault was prompted by jeal-
ousy, according to the witnesses Sc
cured by Mounted Patrolman t. c.
Murphy who made the arrest. The
Washington woman was badly cut and
was at deaths door for several DAYS.
She charged that the assault was with
out Drovocation while the defendant
commended that the knife she used was
taken from the complainant. The
prisoner displayed several cuts in an
effort to prove the truth of her asser-
ton.

MATERIAL WITNESS ABSENT.
So Case of PatrOlman Against
PRvnbrOker Went over.

The case of patrolman versus pawn
broker, which was to have come off in
Police Court yesterday, was continued
until Monday; and the hearing prom
ises to be interesting. Martin Scully is
the officer and Edward Haskell is the
pawnbroker.
The trouble grew out of an arrest
made by Scully several days ago. The
officer was called upon to arrest a
young white man and did so. 1t was
commended at the time, and afterwards
proven, that the man arrested had not
been guilty of the act charged against
him. The arrest occasioned consider
able excitement, and some words were
passed between Scully and Haskell,
with the result that the pawnbroker
was docketed for interfering with an
officer Quite a number of witnesses
were subpoenaed and the hearing
promised to be a rather lively one
The absence of one of Scully's mate
rial witnesses was responsible for the
postponement. After the announcement
of Va postponement had been made
Scully said he had no desire to see
Mr.. Haskell punished and his only pur-
pose in docketing him was to prov G
that the position he took as an officer
was proper one, and that he was only
doing his duty at the time of the trou-
Bile.
Recorder Myrick told the patrolman
to make his statement when the case
is opened. Detective julius Stark is
one of the witnesses for the defense.
and will testify as to certain language
alleged to have been used by mis-
brother officer.

DID NOT CLAIM CoNsULsHIP.
Mr.. Warrcndorf Made No Such
Claim and Is Not Doing Society.

Mr.. Warrcndorf Made No such
Claim and Is Not Doing Society.
The Morning News a few days ago
, printed an item, the information for
which came from Atlanta, to the eff
feet that A. E. Warrendorf of that
city was representing himself as Ger
man consul for Georgia and Florida
Mr.. Warrendorf writes that there is
no truth whatever in the story, and in
justice to him the Morning News
makes this correction.
Mr.. Warrendorf was formerly a rep
resentative of Germany in the East and
in Illinois, but has been an American
citizen since 1898 and is now manager
of the Law Book Publishing Depart
ment of the Publishers League in At
lanta. Some time ago he was taken
i'll in Columbus and some friends who
had known him as a representative of
the German government addressed him
there as ex-consul. The report was
printed in several newspapers that the
German consul was i'll in Columbus.
Mr.. Warrendorf promptly corrected the
report, however. 1t is not unlikely that
the report from Atlanta started some
what in the same way.
Mr.. Warrendorf disclaims any con-
nection with the German consulship
here. While he says that he is not
known personally to the Consul, Mr.
Rauers, he is known to many of the
lawyers of Savannah. He further dis
tinctly says that he is not doing So
ciety'' in Atlanta. Mr.. Warrendorf
desires the public to know that he
fully recognizes that the honor of
the consulship rests with Mr.. Rauers.
and he does not wish to be put in the
false position of claiming it.

HIS CRIME WAS MURDER.
CORONER FOUND KILLING OF DRU-
EN- WOMAN PREMEDITATED.

Half n Dozen Witnesses Heard
Burke Say That He Was Going to
XIII the WOman-She Took His
Threats as a JOke-Heard Him Say
He'd Make Her Friends Walk slow
Behind Her and That Four Men
Would Have to Carry Her From
Her Room.
That the killing of Hattie Bruen by
John Burke was premeditated was
shown conclusively by a half dozen
witnesses examined at the inquest held
yesterday.
The witnesses testified that they had
heard Burke say that he was going TO
kill his paramour, and the jury re-
turned a verdict charging him with
murder. 1t was shown that Burke had
stated to several persons, once or twice
in the presence of the Bruen woman,
that he intended to take her life. She
did not apparently fear him, and
laughed when he made his threats.
The Gordon woman. who lives at
No 632 Bay street, west, where the
homicide occurred, was the chief wit
ness. She was downstairs when
Burke shot the woman, but saw him
toying with the pistol around her. She
heard him several times announce his
determination to make the woman's
friends walk slow behind her, and an
nounced in the presence of the Cor
don woman that Hattie would only
go from her room with four men car
rying her. All of the witnesses exam
ined testified that Burke was sober
at the time of the shooting, and a
witness who has known the man for
over twenty years could not recall
having ever seen him intoxicated.
The verdict of murder was returned
on the first ballot and the prisoner was
committed to jail by Coroner Keller.
He appeared anxious to leave the sta
ton house. and requested that he be
committed Immediately after the YER
dict had been signed. Burke refused
TO discuss the shooting al all, and
would neither deny or admit that ne
killed the woman. He denied, however,
that he had any intention of taking
his own life. The prisoner appeared
badly frightened during the day, and
at no time appeared at ease. His
scared manner gave him a surly APP
pearance. The popularity of the pris-
oner among negroes was evinced yes
terday by the large number of callers
he had. Mr.. Robert l.. Colding has
been retained as counsel for the de-
PENDANT. and the case has been set for
Wednesday.
