LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day).

COURT OF BANKRUPTCY.
(Before Mr. Commissioner Holroyd.)

IN RE WALHEIM-A WEST-END MERCHANT ARRESTED.

This morning an application was made for the release of
Mr. Walheim, a merchant, of 14, Charles-street, West-
bourne-terrace, and also of Alexandria in Egypt, now a
prisoner for debt.
It appeared that Mr. Walheim has been arrested by the
Scinde Bank, who are creditors for £24,000, under an order
of Mr. Justice Mellor, upon the allegation that Mr. Walheim
was about to leave the country. It was stated that the
English-creditors alone represented a sum of £lOO,OOO.
Mr. Linklater, who appeared for the petitioning creditor, did
not oppose the release. The affairs of the estate were now
under administration at Alexandria, and it was believed
that the presence of Mr. Walheim would be advantageous
to the creditors in that country. Creditors to the extent of
£60,000 had no desire that Mr. Walheim should be any
longer confined.

Mr. Sargood, also on behalf of creditors, said he should
not oppose the order of release if good bail were offered.
Mr. Bagley, on behalf of the Scindo Bank, opposed the
application, and urged that it would be much better if the
estate were administered in this country in preference to
Alexandria.

His Honour adjourned the consideration of the order of
release until assignees should be chosen under the estate.
Order refused at present.

CLERKENWELL COUNTY COURT.
(Before Mr. Sergeant Jones.)
THE LATE SPORTS AT THE AGRICULTURAL HALL.-DISPUTED
PRIZES.-MYERS V. DOUGLASS.
This was an action to recover £2, the value of a certain
prize, which plaintiff alleged that he had won at the recent
sports at the Agricultural Hall, Islington.
His Honour—What is this £2 for?
Plaintiff—A long jump.
His Honour—What ? A long jump ! What do you
mean by a long jump ?
Plaintiff—l was one of the competitors at the sports at
the Agricultural Hall.
His Honour—What are you ?
Plaintiff—l am a professional pedestrian, and I fairly
won the prize for £2 in the long jump.
His Honour—Well, but cannot this case be settled ?
Come, defendant, can you not settle this ?
Defendant—No, indeed, I cannot, for I consider it to be
a very great imposition.
His Honour—Well, for aught I know it may be. I can-
not tell, as I do not know anything about sporting matters.
You had better go into the other office and see if you can-
not make some arrangement with the plaintiff.
Plaintiff and defendant went out together and conferred
for about half an hour, and upon their return into court
defendant said, "I am agreeable to refer the matter to the
editor of Bell's Life in London."
Plaintiff—l cannot agree to that as I shall have to pay
for the report.
His Honour—Oh ! no, you will not. All the costs will
be the charges made by the editor of Bell's Life as referee.
Plaintiff—Oh I.then, I will agree.
His Honour.—lf you are successful you will not have to
pay anything, and your hearing fees paid to-day will be
returned.
The case was then referred.
There was a second case against the defendant, but it
was not gone into in consequence of the above being re-
ferred. The Court was crowded with sporting men who
were interested in the result of the action.
