A MOMENTOUS MONKEY. Its Arrest Adds Weight to the Darwin ian Theory. From the New York Herald. It was loft for a New York policeman to eee the Darwinian theory and go it one better. He arrested a monkey yesterday, for dis orderly conduct, took it to the Tombs Police Court, and induced the presiding Judge to fine the animal sl. Corporation Counsel O’Brien is responsi ble for it. His decision, that monkeys aro “noxious animals within the meaning of the law,” wus the prop on which the bluocoat rested, 80 the jxiliceman arrested His Simian Nibs when he found him misbehaving. In the wildest flights of his fancy the au thor of “The Origin of Species” never hoped that things would conio to such a pass. And let the consequences of the act fall upon those guilty of its commission. It is a deed that was not ended when the Judge pronouucofl his little sentence of a paltry jienalty. It is not anew affair of to-dav or to-morrow or day after to-morrow. It is one whose influence will go gallivanting down the corridors of posterity clear through to the back fence of human affairs. MORE POTENT THAN ANARCHY. With the arrest of Andreas Arone’s blue nosed monkey the last pillar was wrenched from under the social fabric. The cry of oppressed labor is but the cooing of a suck ing dove compared with the uproar which this deed will make in the harmony of society. Nihilism never contemplated such litter levelling of mankind us was wrought by the act. Anarchy, rank, reckless an archy, hid its diminished head when it saw that smug-faced upeiet count out #1 iu clipped niekles and punctured pennies and hand it over as the amende honorable to the representative of insulted law. For a half decade pessimists have been foreboding a social revolution, but they didn't suppose it would waddle to the front on the shoulders of a babv baboon. Policeman Polly looked quite careless as he brought the monkey anit its friend be fore Justice Ford at the Tombs. He cer tainly did not appear to realize unpleasant ly the full import of the case. He was sauntering along Cortlandt, whistling a snatch from ‘‘Croppy, IJe Down,” when he espied a monkey dancing a kind of eaehuca to'the accompaniment of Andreas Arone’s organ. TIME TO ARREST SOMETHING. The officer felt' that'he was about due to make an arrest, or at least call the attention of the authorities to something or other on his beat. He eyed the Italian for a moment and saw- that if he took him to the station he would be detailed to turn the hose on the prisoner and then rub him down with a rake. This didn’t strike the policeman just right. Then he recalled t hat on Saturday Corpora tion Counsel O’Brien had formally declared that a monkey was a misdemeanor—that is, his decision really came to that. He said that any man who goes about in the haunts of his fellow creatures with a noxious ani mal in his possession shall he guilty of a misdemeanor. Doesn't make any difference whether or not there is a string to the nox ious animal or whether it carries a muzzle— it is a misdemeanor just the same. “Av that munkey forninst me,” solilo quized the officer, “be int wan of thim things O'Brien shtoyles a misdemeanor, O’ill eat my hat.” “An’ wid thot,” a bystander related to the reporter, “he up an’collared the oogly brute.” THE JUDGE PONDERS. Though the case seemed clear to the policeman. Justice Ford puzzled quite a deal over it w hen the prisoner was brought before him. The monkey, who bore the patriotic name of Silvia Pellieo, squatted on the Judge's desk, crooning piteously ami looking the picture of woe. At its side stood Arone, tbe#organ grinder. Around about was scattered a slice of Mulberry street. •‘Plainly,” said the Judge, “the question to be decided is whether Pellieo here is ‘noxious’ within the meaning of the ordi nance. I have a slight cold,” he went op, “hut,"—sniffing the air—“it strikes me there is a disagreeable odor about Pellieo that —” “No, no, signor,” interrupted the monkey’s friend in a tearful, woe begone voice, “per donate! but you mnke-a dam mistake. It ee3 not-a de monk, signor.” “Well,” resumed his honor, “I haven’t time to investigate that point, and while I respect your unselfish, candid spirit, I will have to inflict a fine of sl.” At these words the monkey twisted its tail into an exclamation [mint, made a few forcible, though obscure, remarks, anti then coolly went down into Arone’s pocket, emerged with its fists full of coin, and pro ceeded to count out the dollar’s worth for the Judge. IN LITTLE ITALY. Whpp the news of the arrest reached Mul hdffry jjtreet the Italian community was a partrapj Vesuvius of agitation. Tho awful words flew from mouth to mouth: “L’Americano arrest-a de monks.” Men gulped down their macaroni with a “Santa Italia, de dam.” AVorpen and children forgot their garlic pottage in marvel at the calamity of one of their companions. “Pellieo arrestatta in frigione,” they ex claimed. “Miei bambini, venite in casa; I’ Americano getta de great big head.” In the evening an indignation meeting was held in Arone’s anartments, at No. 37 Mulberry street. There were about 100 Italians in Atone’s rooms and in the adjoin ing hall. Every one of them represented a principle, so they said. The addresses were in English. It is a peculiarity of the Italian that as soon as he has hail “Yankee Doodle” and “The Last Hose of Summer” put in his organ he concludes that he can speak English. The purpose of the meeting was to protest against the action of the authorities in for bidding the presence of monkeys and hears and other noxious and dangerous animals on the highways or byways of the city. SPEECHES TO THE POINT. Vincenzo Mancini, the first speaker, de nied that the monkey was a noxious animal. He said that he had dined at the same table, slept in the same bed, with monkeys all his life, and ho defied any American to find fault with his manners or appear ance. Domenico Caldini even went further than this. He said that he had known of mon keys who hud refused to associate in such intimacy with certuin of his compatriots. This remark almost brought about a dis turbance, It seuins that there is a long standing vendetta between Mancini and Caidini, and Mancini charges that his enemy took advantage of the occasion to get in a little fling. A little bald-headed fellow named Pedro Orsini got up an swore like blue blazes In a language the reporter had never beard be fore, and when no Imd relieved himself in this way he switched off into English ajle nsked jf the Italian had come to America to ls< plucked of the last vestige of his man hood—the right to pick his company where it best pleased him. He added that, it was snatching the bread from the poor man’s mouth, this depriving him of the service of the monkey. Paola Bernardo ventured the opinion that it was no worse for an Italian to go around with a monkey than for a young woman to lend a big bloodhound through the streets. “'Ve have ade liberte,” he continued, “or We go back to ft; lt’ly.” And that, seemed to be the sense of the meeting.
