JUSTICE OF PEACE DRAGS
BOY OF II OUT OF BED.

COunseIs Grand Jury Action.

An ugly story Of the methods of JUS
tice of the Peace Jacob Kaufman was
told in the Fourth Precinct Police
Court today, and when he a heard 1t
Judge Herr pronounced II a tale that
would interest the grand jury. Lawyer
William Greenfield, who represented
Kaufman's alleged victim, agreed with
the court, and declared he would lay the
facts as related before the grand in
quest. Kaufman said "Go ms far as you
like"
The cage came to the attention of
Judge Herr through the arrest of Sam

but Kaufman refused to accept the

a eolored man at Third avenue ard
Thirty-frst street about 10 o'clock. He

was singularly uncomnunicative and
they took him to the police CITATION.

There he talked. He said he was
Daniel M. Elbert, OF so Third avenue.
and that the valise contained "Miss
Ricketts, wash" which he was taking
home. Miss Rickett, he said, lived at
119 East Thirty-fifth street. 1t wasn't
exactly what he said, but the funny
way he said it, that chagrined the de-
~tectives, who gruffiy ordered him to
show EN-" Daniel opened the valise
and disclosed much freshly Numbered
lingerie.
Go on" commanded the sleuths. pale
but determined. Dan thrust one ham
to the bottom Of the valise, smiled
broadly and brought forth a pair of silk
pajamas. Enough cried the detect
ives, no longer pale, but Dan went
right On, displaying a pair of silk stock
ings to their gaze. The embarrassed
detectives, closing their eyes, helped
Dan replace the precious garments and
then told him to go.
When a reporter called at Miss Rick

been there and she had nothing to. say
With that statement she closed the
door.
