CRIMINAL CoURr.-Tsday, the first case taken
up was that Of the United States agt. Oliver T. p
Hazard, who charged with an assault and
battery in two cases, one alleged to have been
committed upon Mr.. d. T.. Groux, and the other
upon Mrs GrouX

and servant made faces at the prosecuting witness
who complained to defendant, and this led to an
alteration In which the p osecuting witness was
showed OF with some violence aud hit and the
wife Of the prosecuting witness bad two fingers
wounded, and was brought TO premature child
bed and gave birth to dead child, some fourteen
days afterwards.
On the other hand 1t was In evidence that the
defendant did not strike GrouX at all, and that
occurrences had previously transpired which made
IL necessary for the defendant TO command the
peace on account Of Grouy, who had threatened to
shoot and kill the whole family of the defendant
The jury returned a verdict Of not guilty rs In.
dicted in both cases.
The Court then took up the case of Laura Smith,
In which the defendant was charged with keep
ing house Of III fame in the Second Ward Of the
city Of Washington. The Indictment charges the
defendant In two counts, the first as above stated
aud the second with keeping and maintaining
disorderly house.
The first witness called for the prosecution, was
Officer VIM A. Boss, who stated that he knows
the defendant and stated the locality Of her house,
that she had resided In said house nearly two
years that her house 10 VIGOROUSLY house of ill.,
fame and that he had frequently seen persons Of
VIGOROUSLY evil life and fame freQuenting said
house; that the defendant VIGOROUSLY claims that
she keeps the house. and that persons Of evil life
live in said house and receive visits from men;
that the character Of the inmates Is disordery and
bad; that there have within the last two years
been frequent scenes Of disorder in and about the
house, both night and day.
Has heard Of officers being called In TO quell
disturbances there; and that within the personal
knowledge Of witness various disturbances have
occurred there which were rifing Of themselves
but great nusances to the neighbors. Has seen
men bearing an excellent character visiting this
house. Has also seen men fond of lewd women
visiting there. Has heard men say what they
went there for, and that they got what they went
for The Disturbances so frequent as TO cause
ANNOYANCE to citizens living across the street.
The witness stated, further, that there are four
teen similar houses in this neig hborhood and that
tie property holders in the netghborhood had
prornised him compensation for giving the grand
,ury such information as would lead to the Kidding
Of The neigbborhood Of what they consider an in
tolerable nuisance; that no compensation whatever
was offered him In respect to the particular house
In question and that he included 1t In his CON-
plant to the grand jury, that he might not be ac
cused of showing Partially.
