Edwards, In criminal court this morning, took occasion to reprimand a lawyer for making what was beHeved to have been an unwarranted attack upon the efficiency of the police force and their fidelity of purpose.

The court's remarks were couched in terms that could not be mistaken and were given during his charge to the Jury In the felonious wounding case of Superintendent of Police Lona B. Day against Lulgl Diksquale, alias Lulgi Dl Pasquale, of South Scranton. It seems that in his closing address to the Jury yesterday afternoon, one of ine lawyers for the defendant took the police to task for not producing more evidence In court, and then went on to elaborate upon the operations of the police force in a manner that did not win the approval of the court. The Judge refused to countenance that sort of thing and paid a tribute to the worth and efficiency of the men who look after the safety of the public of this city. The reason the witnesses for the po.

lice were not more numerous than the defendant's lawyer thought they should be was explained by the police to be due to the large number of cases brought by the department at this term of court. Inasmuch as corroborative testimony was given, it was sufficient, under the law. The. police have more cases at this term Of court than ever before. Sixty transcripts were submitted to the grand Jury, forty Indictments were returned, and in thirty two of the cases in which these were found, the defendants signed confessions of guilt.

The showing made by Superintendent Day and the police department at this term is an extraordinary one. BETRAN SENT UP FDR TEN YEARS.
