was engaged to do the hauling informed the
Third Ward officers, and was advised to do the
work in order to ventilate the scheme. At 8
O'Clock Sunday morning the driver went to the
place to remove the goods, and when the wagon
was loaded the officers seized the goods and
arrested A. P. q. BedrosFs and John smith,
alias Luf. The case was taken before Justice
Miller. The evidence showed that six months
ago the good will and fixtures was bought by
the sister OF Lutf, who paid $1,000 cash and q
note OF $500 due sometime after. The papers
were made out in the name OF the prisoner,
John Luff, her brother. The trustee gave no.
tice that a note Of 81 600 was due, and payment
not being made, the furniture was advertised
for sale on Friday next. To save themselves,
the prisoners were removing part OF the tur.
