CONDUCT OF INDIAN SOLDIERS.
A WOMAN AT THE BOTTOM.
A case which occupied the attention of Mr. F. A. Hazeland for some considerable time this morning was that in which two Indian soldiers -Lell Singh and Beer Singh, H.K.S.B.R.A. -were charged with behaving in a siulous; noisy and disorderly manner at Kowloon lasi night, whereby a french of the peace wat DCCS. aloned. The complainanta were Indian police men, who testified that about eight o'clock last evening, while on duty at the j»nction of Austin and Pobinson Roads, the defendants were seen drinking gin and breating the law. One of the policemen spoke to the defendants regarding their behaviour.they paid no no- tice and when the officer reasonstrated with them again they closed with him. The palice. man sounded his whistle and one of the de fendants tank to his heels, the policeman, giv- ing chase, After a run of about 100 yards the policeman caught up to his man, but the latter turned on him and knocked him down, at the same time relieving him of his service revolver, which the law-breaker threw away.
An officer belonging to the same regiment ar the accused informed the Court that he was told the defendants and one of the policemen had a quarrel over a woman. His Worship attempted to get that story hom the policeman, but failed.
"Do you know the defendants?" asked the Court of the policeman.
"No."
"Did you and the first defendant ever had' a quarrel about a woman?"
"No."
"Did your brother have trouble with any of the defendants??'
"No,'I do'not' know," replied its policeman, The two defendants were called to the wit- mess-box- in turn, and the story they related was absurd, according to the Court. They tried to make out that the whole affair was an invention so as to get them into trouble, as the complaibants and themselves were never friends. They said that the three policemen ware the persons who were drinking gin, not themselves, and denied all that was said by the prosecution.
J
Inspector, Langley sprang up and said that be understood the defendants had said that his policemen were drinking gin' on the side of the road. He wanted to know the time when this was alleged to have happened, as he was on patrol and saw the men on their beat that night.
Bills Worship said he did not believe their story. He bound the first defendant over in the sum of $100 to be of good behaviour for one year. The second man was discharged,
