The Sixty-two Prisoners.

Acting under the authority OF war
rants issued by Justice Of the Court OF
Special Sessions, party Of policemen
went on Tuesday afternoon to building
in lower Sixth avenue to arrest three
men. On entering the rooms where
the men described in the warrants were
supposed to be the police found sixty
two other men present. No crime was
charged against any Of these sixty-two,
and the police had no warrants for their
arrest. Notwithstanding this, the police
took them all in custody.
On appearing before the judicial
officers the police found that az their
sixty-two victims had been seized ille-
eally and illegally detained there was
no way in which they could be sat at
liberty legally Three judicial officers
in turn refused to consider the cases OF
the sixty-two prisoners. In 30 refusing,
they we're acting properly, and had they
not exercised a latitude of authority
which Is characteristic OF the lower
courts the unfortunate sixty-two might
still be deprived of their liberty. As it
was, they were not released in obedience
| to law, but as an act Of humanity. 1t Is
declared that some OF the illegally ar
rested men went hungry for twenty
| four hours.
This unfortunate incident in the lives
Of sixty-two New Workers was due inn
mediately to Inspector SMITH, who was
at the head Of squad making the illegal
! arrests; but Inspector SMITH. as faith
full subordinate, took his cue from the
head of his department.
Commissioner GREENE recently saw
At to denounce the actions Of members
of the judiciary in their official capacity.
What wonder is it that GREENE's SUBJ
ordinate should take the law into his
| own hands?
Section $50 OF the Penal Code reads
as follows:
! such. who unawtully and maliciously. under pre-
tence or color Of ofncisi ushonty. N arrests an
| other or detans him against his will, or az toes
any other act whereby an other person ID injured
In his person property. or hghts. commits oppres'
! sion and Is guilty OF . misdemeanor."
The penalty for q misdemeanor Is i'm
! prisonment for not more than one year.
or q fine OF not more than $500, or both.
Policemen ought not to be led to such an
end by misguidanoe in the law.

Pariersburg Sentinel. Thomas Scott. an
old man who resides at Salem. notsietl:
the police that he had been robbed Of $40
at q house on Third street below @Ju-
Llama.
The oficers made an investigation and
Chief Smith swore out warrant before
Squire Thomas charging d. 2. Nelson.
Mary Fleming, Alice Gossage and Ma
bel Parker with tina robbery.
The parties were all afraigned at 10
o'clock and plead not guilty.
Scott was the first witness and testi-
fed that he arrived in town Thursday
evening and had some over 800 In his
possession, ave eco bills and some change.
He met Sam Costello. bartender, near
the B. & o. depot, who he said Is . friend
Of his, and at midnight Sam invited him
to stay with him at his home ON Third
street. They went there together, and
he concluded he wanted some beer. He
gave Costello $50 and Costello wakened
up one of the women in the house to en-
terrain him until Costello returned. Mary
Fleming came into the room and talked
to him, but Costello did not return until
about o'clock, when he handed him
$40 in change. Then it was that he dis
covered that two of the $50 bills had
disappeared. He told them he didn't pro-
pose to be robbed in that manner and
would make @holler."
Costello said the old man had 800,
and he took him down to his room for
safe keeping, and said that when the old
man gave him the $50 for beer he went
out, but got full and did not get back to
the room with the beer and the change
until o'clock this morning.
Some of the others claimed that when
the old man made kick about the rob-
berry they went into his room and found
n $50 bill lying on the floor. The Parker
woman said she rolled it up and threw it
back under the bed, but that afterwards
saw Nelson and his wife enter the room
and come out again.
The police stated that they heard
about this $40 bill under the bed, but
were unable to find it.
Squire Thomas heard all the evidence
and adjourned the hearing for day or
two. as the officers are of the opinion
that they can secure sufficient evidence
to connect several other parties with the
affair.
Scott is very sore, as it is said he was
relieved of large sum of money on a
former visit here.

Reliance had steadily gained, and was two
miles ahead Of her rival when Shamrock III
caught a little wind from tho west and be-

about when mile away from the turn. and.

for the mark at almost racing pace. The
wind continued to freshen until she swept

returning defender, but she had been SO far
astern that 1t was eight minutes after Re-

sixteen minutes.
Just at that moment the Regatta Com

followed Reliance short distance. sham-
rock III never turned the mark. The yachts
were taken in tow Of tugs, and the feet,
hurrying homeward, quickly dropped them.
Admirers Of Reliance are jubilant because
the American yacht demonstrated that in
extremely light airs and very rough water,
she could show her heels to the British
challenger. and those were the conditions
believed to be the severest test OF the Her

ENGLAND DENIES INTENDING
TO SEND SHIPS TO TURKEY.

London. Aug. 2o-The Admiralty to-day
denied the Daily Chronicles statement that
Admiral Domville. commanding the British
Mediterranean Squadron. now of the coast
of Portugal, had received urgent orders i'm
mediately to dispatch some Of his ships to
the vicinity of Salonica.
The officials informed the Associated
Press that nothing had been done regarding
the dispatch Of British force to Turkish
waters, and It was not expected that such
action would be taken, in view of Great
Britain's announced support Of the policy Of
Russia and Austria, unless radical change
In the situation should occur.
The British Foreign Office has been noti-
fed Of the orders issued to the italian
Squadron. which appears to have been COM
municated to all the capitals and which the
Italian diplomats say does not mean that
Italy intends to withdraw in the slightest
degree from cooperation with the Powers.
