went TO the house of Susie Crevling, 18th
street, and after calling for wine refused TO pay
Tor portion they had used. Susie Crevling
appeared rs witness, and testified that she
sold the wine, having a license from the Corpo-
ration to sell wine. The accused parties became
disoTdeTly, and Susie sent for the police, and
had them taken to the station house, Second
Ward. The accused are both soldiers Justice
Miller fined each IS. and turned them over to
the military. The justice then turned TO Susie
ana ordered her TO pay S25 for selling liquor to
soldiers. The justice then sent for the license
which Susie Creving said she had, and it
turned out 10 be an internal revenue license,

recognized by law, and fined Susie CrevIing
500 for selling liquor without license from the
