Harry Hutton, Special Chief of Po-
lice' FOR the vicinity of 1929 Dupont
street, must answer for having directed
two policemen to violate the injunction
issued by Superior Judge Cook against
interfering with the premises in ques-
tion or any OF its inmates.
Before Judge Cabaniss yesterday
Mary Duren, one of the inmates, was
charged with vagrancy. She had been
arrested as she was coming from the
premises by Policemen Barry and Fen
nell, who were detailed for that par
ticular purpose by Police Commissioner
Hutton. Both of the policemen re-
fused toeswear to a complaint against
her and she was discharged.
Immediately afterward George d.
Collins. attorney for Jean Pom, the os-
tensible lessee Of the premises, applied
for warrants for the arrest of Hutton
and the two policemen who made the
arrest under his direction. The charge
against them was false Imprisonment.
Judge Cabaniss postponed the matter
until to-day in order to consult his as
sociate Police Judges. Police Judges
Cabaniss. Mogan and Fritz will sit en-
banc and determine whether or not the
warrants shall be issued.
Superior Judge Cook is out of the
city, but on his return an application
viii be made to cite Hutton and the
two arresting officers for contempt on
the ground that they have violated the
injunction.
Patrick Brennan ard SSaTsaeld O'Brien
had a little argument in an East~street
saloon on Tuesday night regarding the
whenceness of the why. and II SO,
wherefore2 When the interested spec
tators dug them out OF the sawdust
Sarsheld,s face was swelling like
dead horse in the sun. Brennan was
taken to Jail and yesterday morning
O'Brien appeared against him as COM
planning witness on a charge Of bat
terry. In order TO get O'Brien's face
into Judge Mogan's courtroom IT was
necessary to open both doors.
You are accused Of walloping this
complainant-wallop is the correct
term, I believer" said Judge Mogan,
turning TO O'Brien.
"Ye're right. Jedge." said the COM
plainant. "Wallop is the word. I'm
willing TO swear to that. I was among
those present" Then he reached out
as far as he could and fondled his ex-
huberent countenance.
I'VE just got in a little mix, Yanner," !"
said Brennan. "and stood on his face
for a few minutes. That was all dere
was to it."
"Pn have to find you guilty of bat
terry, Mr.. Brennan" said the Judge and
you viii appear for sentence to-mor-
row.
Richard Price Tapped upl entirely too
much booze for one man on Tuesday
night and his predatory instincts were
aroused. His quest was in search of
big game. First he "hefted'' the dwell
ing Of ]. ]. Mccarthy, at 21o Morton
avenue, but was finally obliged to ad-
nit that he was unable to lift the
house from its foundations and carry
il away. He then turned his attention
to a gas meter in the residence, weigh
ing 200 pounds. He managed to shoul-
der this and was staggering away with
IL when he was detected. To Judge
Fritz yesterday he explained that he
was terribly ''soused" and did not know
what he was doing. He was banished
for thirty days to the County Jail as a
memory cure.
Fred Pierce is an elderly and enter
tanning thief. He had a penchant for
collecting brass plugs from standpipes
that afford a water supply to high
buildings for use in case of fire. Not
being of a selfish disposition, he dis
tributes his collection when it has at
tained a volume sufficient to bring him
q few dollars.
He was in Judge Fritz's court yes
terday on a charge of petty larceny
Two basketsful of fire plugs were in
troduced as evidence. These he had
disposed Of to a junk dealer for six
cents a pound. Among the plunder
were four plugs. stolen from the new
fire house in course OF construction in
the Mission. The defense secured a
continuance until to-day in order TO
secure some further witnesses.
The Peoples Laundry, located on Ed
dy street, near Fillmore, washed some
of its dirty linen in Judge Mogan's
court yesterday. Joseph Toomey COM
planned that Charles Eichelberger, one
Of the proprietors, had battered him
painfully and without cause. Toomey
had at one time been employed as a
driver by the laundry, but had been
discharged.
At the time Of the alleged assault
he was passing airy persihage with one
Of the blanchisseures-in the Peoples
Laundry they call them washerwomen
which was contrary to the rules of
the institution. More in sorrow than
in anger, Eichelberger grabbed Too
mey by the neck and the south end
of his trousers and cast him forth. He
found a resting place in an ash barrel
at the foot of twenty-three stairs and
then he sought JUSTICE.
