him 1.-The double cross" Some of the col
ored offenders brought before the Judge
credited him with probably even more than
to read their thoughts and remember their
records. Withal he was an exceedingly
kindly man, and his death was considered
as loss to the local bench.
Joseph Y. Potts, the present clerk of the

TENDER 80. 1890, and has served in a capable
manner for the last fifteen years. The
rapid growth of the court has increased the
duties of clerk. but Mr.. Potts has kept
pace with the progress.
The year 1891 marked new epoch in the
history of the Police Court. for in that
year it took on larger scope and a new
phase, which had never been considered in
its connection up to that time. The change
was the result of legal steps taken in the
well-known labor conspiracy case, brought
into the court. Certain labor leaders were
charged with conspiracy, and when they
appeared before Judge Miller their attor-
ney asked for jury trial. There was no
precedent for granting jury trials In the
Police Court and the demand was refused
The ruling was carried to a higher court
then to the general term, and 1t was there
held that the defendants had right TO
have a jury trial If they desired.
