LIVELY FIST FIGHT
 IN CRIMINAL COURT Men Struggle Through Swing ing Doors While Pounding NO BLOOD WAS SHED
Judge CahaIan Orders Detective Wrenn and C. H. LaRue To Appear Saturday To Answer Charge
 Of Contempt Of Court

As an end to a somewhat stormy ses- sion yesterday in the first division of the county criminal court, Judge M Frank Cahalan presiding, City Detective John Wrenn and c. H. LaRue, a clerk employed by, the law firm of Bowman, Harsh and Beddow, engaged in a sensa- tional encounter which threw the room into an uproar LaRue and Wrenn be- gan fighting In the corridor outside the criminal court room, but went struggling through the swinging doors into the room, arms were displayed but the men were using their fists freely and it required much effort on the part of the bailiff to separate and quiet them. Judge Cahslan did not fine eithsr of the combatants but ordered them to appear before him Saturday and give cause why they should not be fined for contempt.
 The occurrence is supposed to have grown out of certain testimony offered by Detective Wrenn in the case of Will Jones, negro, charged with robbing box car. Wrenn was on the stand in the capacity of detective testifying as to his knowledge of the facts in the larceny. He testified on cross-examina- ton by attorneys for the negro that Jones was not given the third degree at the city police headquarters, that he was not beaten and that electricity was not used to eStort confession.
 Wrenn was excused about 3 o'clock and went into the corridor, followed by LaRue, an employe of the firm of Bow man, Harsh & Beddow, who were the negro's attorneys. LARue claims tha wrenn began conversing with City De tective w s. Sigsbee, another witness fl the case and that as conferences be tween witnesses are not allowed he triet to hear what they were saying. Wrenr took exception to being followed and made known his dspleasure, whereupor the two started fighting.
 Neither of the two participants was badly hurt and no blood was shed. but the melee caused a small sensation about the courthouse. There is not known to have been any previous i'll feeling between Wrenn and LaRue.

Police Commission Will Try To Bring Expenses Within Proposed
 Appropriation

The police commission will hold a special meeting today and will hear the report of Chief Bodeker in regard to the cut in the police department which was forced by the reduction of the annual appropriation for the oper- ation of the department.
 Chief Bodeker will also submit his report of the work done by the police department during the month of De- cember. The report will show a large number ofSarrests and convictions on account of December being Christmas month. December is regarded as the hardest month to handle during the year and the past one was unusually disorderly
 Chief Bodeker has not ceased his efforts to reduce the number of arrests in Birmingham and the monthly reports are showing the result. At every op- portunity Chief Bodeker impresses the men with the fact that he desires them to maintain good order without mak- ing too many arrests. This can be done. states the chief, and has been done.
 "It is the duty of the patrolman not only to make arrests but to maintain order on his beat" said the chief in speaking of the matter '"rhe best of- fcer Is not the one who makes the most arrests, but he who maintains the best order with the fewest arrests l always impressed upon the men of my department that they must not lose their tempers. An officer should al- ways use discretion and when he is angry this Is practically impossible. It will be proud day for me when l can report that the arrests made in 31 days in Greater Birmingham are less than 500."
