SALOON MAN ON CARPET.

Serious Charges Against P. B. Young,
Self-Confessed Philanthropist.

According to P. B. Young, saloonkeeper, at 611 East Twelfth street, he and his two bartenders threw the cloak of protection around N. Marx of 820 East Twelfth street, and performed a humane act when they allowed him to slumber in a chair from noon to 5 p. m. on January 12.

"I know I was drunk," said Marx before the police board yesterday, "but even in that state I am not in the habit of sleeping in an uncomfortable chair without waking from 11 a. m. to 5 p. m. When I awoke I was sitting on my coat, my hat was behind the bar and my gold watch, the fob, and something over eight dollars was gone." Young is charged with running a disorderly place and his license is in danger. The case went over until Sergeant Goode, who is now ill, can testify.
