Controversy Over Certain Arrests
Made BY Railway Detectives.

When the name of Charles w. Wilson,
a Phila delphia, Baltimore and Washing
ton railroad detective, was called this
morning in the Police Court to answer TO
a charge OF discharging firearms within
the District he failed to respond, and
collateral to the amount of $40 was de-
clared to be forfeited. The charge against
Wilson is the outgrowth of an alleged
shooting affair in the vicinity of Bennins
the night of December 2. 1t was said that
Wilson discharged a revolver at Michael
Kenney, an employe at the race track,
and then arrested Kenney on the charge of
interfering with an officer. The case has
been the cause of much controversy be-
tween the local police and the railroad de-
tectives, the latter stating they had per-
feet right to place Kenney under arrest
and have him tried on the charge at
Hyattsville as they alege the incident
occurred in Maryland.
Michael Kenney was in the Police Court
this morning as witness, and statedit was
his intention to have a warrant on the
charge of assault sworn out for the arrest
Of both Wilson and Lieut.. Buckley of the
railroad force, who were both at Bennins
at the time Of the alleged shooting. The
trouble Is said to have happened while
the two railroad men were about to place
four tramps Under arrest on the charge of
being on trains unlaWfuliy, and kenney, it
is alleged, interfered.
The warrant on which Wilson was to
be arraiened this morning was sworn to
by Sergt. Hartman of the ninth precinct.
Further developments in the case are ex-
pected within the next day or two.

ing fraternity Of this city as a place to
try their luck at various games of
chance. was last week brought here and
is now anchored in sheltered spot,
where it will be protected from drifting

was closed. and except for a Waterman

little tug Bartholdi. which ran between
Alexandria and the houseboat was laid
up. 1t is stated that 1t Is very doubtful
If the houseboat will be returned to its
anchorage off Alexandria in the spring,
as the Maryland and Virginia authorities

Firht.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. December 10.-After work
ing all night on the necessary papers with
John F. Ahearn. the borough president
whom Gov. Hughes deposed. Martin w.
Littleton, his counsel, got Justice Truax
out of bed at s o'clock this morning and
obtained a temporary Injunction from him
restraining any action in connection with
the governors order until the matter can
be argued before court. The order was
directed against Mayor Mcclellan and
County Clerk Dooling, whose place 1t is
to carry out the decision OF the governor
which banished Ahearn from office. I'm
medIately after the order was obtained
men were sent out to serve it.
The order is returnable on Friday before
the justice who granted it in part 1. spe-
cial term, where the question Of its per-
manency will be argued. 1t was granted
on the ground that the taxpayers money
is involved, and that the decision of the
governor may involve the needless ex.
penditure of 1t. It will be the duty OF
the corporation counsel to argue for the
dismissal of the order and the carrying
out of the governors decision, so that
the men who have been political enemies
ever since the Mcclellan Murphy row be.
gan will be lined up on opposite sides In
the court.

METHODS CRITICISED.
Judge Scores Conditions for Which,

Judge Scores Conditions for Which,
He Says, Comrs. Are Responsible.
Judge Mullowny, sitting in the District
arraigned the District Commissioners for
the, method prescribed In accepting col
lateral in the Police Court. and for the
limited power conferred upon the assist
ant corporation counsers Office In the mat
ter. This action was the aftermath of
two cases. when Ernest Holmes and
Henry Perry, colored, were brought into
the court on an attachment following an
original charge of destroying private prop
erty.
During the last Police Court term
Holmes and Perry were crested for
loon in the northwestern section Of the
city. They were brought to the Police
Court. and on the testimony Of the police
the clerk accepted collateral Of 80 in
each case. Upon falling to respond to
their names their collateral was declared
forfeited. Investigation. however. on the
part of the corporation counsers office
showed, 1t Is said, that the window broken
was Of much greater value than collateral
Of SO would imply. and attachments were
issued to have the accused parties brought
into court this morning for trial. After
learning the facts Judge Mullowny. in
continuing the cases Of the two men, sal i'd:
1.-THE clerk not being a judicial officer
nor thoroughly understanding the facts in
different cases. ought not to have these
powers Of determining collateral. The
assistant corporation counsel Is the in
vestigating officer. and it Is his duty to
know what the facts are and how much
collate raj should be deposited in lieu of a
bond The defendants in the present case
forfeited collateral when called for trial.
and Mr. Pugh, understanding tie facts.
asked for a bench warrant to have them
rearraigned.
such an order and the condition Of af-
fairs as they are at present Is an out
rage" He said the Commissioners are
responsible. 1T makes the corporation
counsers office subservient to the police
oficers," the judge continued. THE clerk
must necessarily depend upon counsel IN
determining the collateral Of different
cases. Such a situation Is peculia: to the
general duties Of the corporation counsel.
Who is supposed to be the responsible per-
son on whom the court relies in such mat
tiers. He alone should determine how
much bail should be demanded IN all cases
coming under his jurisdiction.
'.There is hardship in the present case.
and l have no doubt will undoubtedly be
followed by others as long as the tangle
continues. The term having closed when
the forfeiture here was entered. there Is
a question whether the money can be re-
turned to the defendants

ENGAGE IN MAN HUNT
CITIZENS PURSUE INDIVIDUAL
WHO FRIGHTENs GIRL.

Residents Of Kenilworth last evening
engaged in a man hunt. They were
heavily armed. 1t was fortunate. it is
said, for the individual who frightened
Miss Hattie Hayes that her father.
Lemuel D. Hayes. had loaned his gun to
a neighbor and was without firearms Of
any kind in his home last night. Mr..
Hayes was in bed when a man made an
| effort to grab his daughter. but her loud
screams attracted his attention and he
hurried to her assistance. Neighbors also
heard her screams and responded.
No time was lost by Mr.. Hayes in get
ting shotgun from a neighbor and start
ing with other neighbors to overtake the
man who had caused the scare. The hunt
was unsuccessful, however, and the mem
oers OF the searching party returned to
their homes. Later the police were ap-
pealed to by Mr.. Hayes, but as the latter
was unable to give description Of the
man IN question or even tell his color.
the police fear they will not be able to
make much Roadway.
Noticed Man Standing In Rain.
The home Of Mr.. Hayes is on o street. a
short distance from the Kenilworth
Presbyterian Church. and only about 100
yards from Kenilworth avenue. There are
electric lights on both sides Of Kenil-
worth avenue, and 1t Is an easy mat
ter for the occupants of the Hayes home
to stand at their side door and obtain
good view OF pedestrians on the principal
thoroughfare. Miss Hayes spent yester-
day in this city with her married SIS
ter, and her father thought she would
return on the car that is due there about
$50 o'clock. At that time he stood IN his
dining room door and watched for the
car Several p0SSenQnr9 left the at
the street crossing. but his daughter
was not one OF them. He saw a man
standing near the corner of o street and
kentlworth avenue, and remarked to his
wife that 1t seemed singular that he
should be standing there in the rain.
Il guess he's just some crazy man."
was the reply Of Mrs. Hayes, who gave
the matter no more thought.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hayes retired shortly aft
erward, leaving the door unlocked and the
light dimmed.
Respond to Calls for Aid.
Nothing more was thought Of the Incl
dent until the voice of the daughter call
ing was heard. Instantly the parents re-
called the presence of the man in the
rain, and father and mother were out Of
bed. and on their way to the door in a
hurry. Mr.. Hayes dressed as quickly
as possible, and. after hearing what his
daughter had to say about her experience,
went to a neighbors house and borrowed
his gun. Miss Hayes said the man made
an effort to grab her, and when she
screamed and started to run. he called to
her to halt.
In reporting the affair to the police. Mr..
Hayes complained Of the alleged lack Of
police protection in Kenilworth. He says
it is his intention to have the Kenilworth
Citizens Association take up the matter
of better police protection.
