BURGLAR GETS NOTHING, LEAVES FINGERPRINTS

Mrs. Marion Miller, of 257 Mount Vernon Street, reported to police today that a burglar broke into her home Wednesday and ransacked the second and third floors. The intruder was frightened away without any loot.

Detective Frank Crawford found that entrance had been gained by taking a pane of glass out of a side window. Crawford said that he had obtained fingerprints.

George Stinsman, of 14 York Street, reported that someone had broke into his home and stolen a washing machine valued at $59.

MAN GIVEN 60 DAYS FOR ROW AT HOSPITAL

 William Clark, 35, colored, of 732 Mt. Vernon Street, was sentenced to 30 days in the county jail on a disorderly conduct charge by Police Judge Pancoast yesterday. 

Patrolman William Rodgers testified he arrested Clark at the West Jersey Homeopathic Hospital where Rodgers had asked for treatment for a dog bite. According to hospital attaches, he became abusive. Earlier, Rodgers said, Clark had entered the Second district police station seeking a warrant for the arrest of the dog's owner.

Clark told the court that a policeman, not Rodgers, struck him at the hospital. He was informed by the court to make any complaint to Acting Chief John Golden.
