POLICE COURT.

THIS DAY.

(Before Thomas Beckhani, Esq. R.M.)

DBUNKENNESS. Five persons were mulcted in the usual penalty for this offence. OBTAINING GOODS UNDER FALSE 3PBE- T-XCES.

Edward Harding was charged with lvivinz obtained goods to the value of 10s and moneys to the extent of £2 10s under false pretences, on the 3rd August, the property of William Farly. Mr Brohaui asked for a remand until Monday. ,->iX4ie prisoner was accordingly remanded ; Kbeing allowed, himself in £100, and JRfS surities in £50 each.

BEBACH OF QUARANTINE REGULATIONS. Isaac Harding, master of the Nebraska, was charged with a breach of the Quaran tine Regulations, clause 4, during the month of May, by giving false or evasive answers to certain questions put to him relative to the health, by the Harbour Master and Pilot of the Port of Auckland. Mr James Eussell appeared for the defendant, in conjunction with Mr Hes keth ; and Mr Brookfield prosecuted. Capt J Burgess called, deposed: I am harbour master of the Poet of Auckland, and also pilot of the port. I recollect the Nebraska coming here on the 23rd May last, in charge of Capt Harding. I first communicated with him inside Eangitoto Reef. I was the first one who had any communication with the Captain on that occasion. I asked him if there was any sickness on board. He said " No, nor has there been any." That was all that occurred. Cross-examined by Mr Hesketh.—l did not act as pilot when the Nebraska came here on the 23rd May. On the Nebraska's arrival in March last I heard that there was small-pox in Wellington. I stopped the vessel at the Heads, and told the Captain to hoist the Health Officer's flag. The Captain was perfectly acquainted with the regulations at the time. He said he had no flag on board. I, the next trip, took one on board, and one, also, on the last triip At that time I did not provide him with the Harbour Regulations. The questions I asked the Captain when I boarded, were : " Are you all well on board ? Have you, or have you had and sickness on board ?" He said " Yes" to the first, and " No" to the second. I asked two distinct questions. I will swear I put these questions. If I had been informed that there was any contagious disease on board I should have called for the presence of the Health Officer. Of my own knowledge I do not know whether the Captain's answers were false or true. Wm. Mitchell deposed : 1 was *a pas senger on board the Nebraska in May last, from San Francisco to Auckland. I was' the only second-class passenger. I recollect a man connected with the engine room having something the matter Trith his skin. After he got sick he was removed to a berth in the second cabin; this was eight or ten days before we arrived in port. The berth was very near to the mail room, and three or four bertha from mine. I saw the man after he was removed to the secona cabin. He was off duty. When first I saw the man sick I told the stewart what I thought was the matter. After that, Captain Harding spoke to me about him. The man Had an eruption all over his hands and face. I also told the purser The Doctor said it was not- small

P°Walter Bruce was next examined, but only cave evidence to having seen his brother on the Nebraska with a number of blotches over his face. He could not say what complaint he was suffering fr°Mr Hesketh urged that there was on evidence to convict the Captain on. Alexander James Younger, surgeon of the Nebraska, was called for the detenoe. His evidence went to show the man Bruce, alleged to have had small-pox, was Buffering from pneumonia. He distinctly swore that there was not small-pox on board the Nebraska. This was the only witness called for the deH?s° Worship said that after hearing the evidence of the surgeon he could not blieve that this was an infectious disease W lie could not help thinking that all LsesofSness should be reported to t£ proper authorities. He did not think that the Court would be justified n committing the captain. The case would suggested to the Harbour master the advisability, of in future taking dWn every word said in writing, so that there coulee no dispute in the matte. A second charge against the Captain was withdrawn.
