At the Central Magistracy yes- terday, two Chinese were charged before Mr. R. E. Lindsell in conuec- tion with the theft of a bicycle. One man admitted stealing the machine from the conlie quarters of the Sanitary Board at Wanchai and selling it to Messrs. Sang Lee's watchman for $8. He was sentenced to fourteen days' jail. The other man denied receiving stolen proper- ty, although he admitted receiving $3 of the proceeds of the sale of the bicycle. First accused was asked why he had given the $3 No. 2, and replied that it was because the latter was present when the ma- chine was stolen. The Magistrate remarked that because No. 1 per- sisted in lying, his sentence would be doubled. The second man was discharged as there was no evidence against him of receiving the bicycle.

A Chinese was yesterday charged before Mr. R. E. Lindsell at the Central Magistracy with snatching $20 from Patrick' N. McGuiness, a member of the crew of the U.S.S. "Black Hawk." According to Me- Guiness he had changed a $50 noto in "Nagasaki Joe's" place at Wan- chai, and put $20 in his breast pocket and the balance in one of his Bocks. The accused grabbed the $20, but was immediately acized by one of McGuiness' comrades named F. J. Antonius. The accused threw the notes to another Chinese in a ricsha and this man got away with the China Station is to be held on the 8.5. "President Lincoln" from Magistrate that he only snatched the money.
