RECORDERS Cot5RT-Judge VIII
lard had big days business yester-
day, but the amount of bankable
funds paid into the sub-treasury was
not very large.
Charley Kinkel, for fighting, was
charged 81 40, which he replevied.
Bill Powers, Kinkel's antagonist,
for the same ofFense, was fined 81 40,
which he paid.
Mollie Brown. who lives on Elev-
enth Street, was arraigued on the
charge of keeping house of i'll fame
The case was tried by jury of twelve
men. This was the most clearly
proven case of the whole series of
this kind that have lately been tried
in this city, yet. for some unaccount-
able reason, the jury failed to agree.
One witness, who had been an in
mate of Mollie Browns naatson de
jote, testified that it was a house of
prostitution; stated the contract that
was made between the proprietress and
the girls - and said that the inmates
were prostitutes, and also pointed out
man in the court room who had
visited the house for lewd purposes.
This witness. contrary to the usual
manner of women of her class. evil
IDENTIFY told the truth. and showed
that, although she had fallen from the
path of honor and rectitude. she had
not become so depraved-so lost to
every attribute of iustice-as to commit
perjury, and did round, unvarnish-
ed tale unfold" that was sufficient evil
dence for almost any person. And yet,
the jury failed to agreed The attorney
for the defense made a buncombe
speech to the jury, bat with men of
sense we did not suppose his remarks
would have much effect. The poor fe-
male who had testified to the truth
was called black devil" (she is a
brunette), trained nuisance"
:. malicious creature" etc, while his
client and her witnesses were Ihe very
perfection Of virtue and decency. He
made terrific attack, on the police
for arre5ting these poor unfortunate,
weak women" whom they could
handle" and called them " cow
ards, - because they did not pull :"
the men who visited them. The VIII
trial was rich and exciting, and a
large crowd was present.
MolIie Brown will have another
trial, but we repeat, that no case was
ever more clearly proven than the one
yesterday, in which the jury failed to
agree. The verdict astonished every
body.

Evansville Tobacco Market.

The tobacco market yesterday
opened active and firm, with an up
ward tendency for low grades. The

pany sold nine-two hogsheads, at fine
figures, as follows:
Range Of Bids at $13 o. to

satisfactory prices.
We are pleased to see that the in
terest of our merchants Ia the tobac-
co sales are undated. and we feel
satisfied that tobacco will always sell
here for all that it is worth. TIE bid
ding yesterday was quite spirited,
and the total amount of the sales yes
terday was over $4,000. Martin,
Gardner & Co. desire US to state that
hereafter, on account of the falling
off 10 the receipts, they will only sell
two days in the week-Tuesday and
Fridays. Buyers will please make a
note of this fact. On Friday another
large sale will take place.

quire a knowledge of legal forms,

TOBACCO WAREHOUSE QUEsTToN.
We stated few days ago in our pa
per. that Martin, Gardner & Co. were
preparing to erect a fine tobacco
warehouse on the wharf, between Di-
vision and Pine Streets, but it seems
there is a prospect for some trouble
in the matter. Martin, Gardner &
Co. leased this property from Willard
Carpenter for ninety nine years, and
advertised for bids for constructing a
tobacco warehouse thereon. But some
citizens were opposed to the ware
house being built. there. declaring it
would be an obstruction, and ought
not to be put there. A committee
was appointed by the Council two
weeks ago, to look into the matter and
see what the ground could be pur-
chased for, and the committee report
ed at the next meeting that the
ground could not be bought. as it was
leased for long term of years. This
was supposed to be the end of the mat
ter, and contractors and builders were
requested to send in their bids to
Martin, Gardner & Go. for doing the
work. Last Monday night, however,
Judge Parrett submitted an ordi-
nance, which was passed by the Coun-
Gil, prohibiting. under heavy fine,
the erection of any building on
the wharf between Water Street
and the river. This. was con-
sidered as covering the case, and
we thought the building of the ware
house on that piece of ground was
Knocked in the head. But it seems
that the matter is not definitely settled
yet. 1t is claimed that the city can
not, even Dy an ordinance, prevent
any person from building on private
property; and the only way for the
city to prevent the warehouse from
being erected there. Is to condemn
the ground for the use of the copora-
ton, and buy it.
This is the view taken in the case
by the tobacco men and their legal
advisers, we believe, and it is their
intention to proceed in the erection
ef the bull ling, and will legal y re-
sist the enforcement of the ordinance
passed on Monday night. How the
matter will end is not very clear at
present, and there are quite a number
of persons interested on each side of
the question. If the city does not
condemn and buy the property. Mar
tin, Gardner & Co. propose to /" fight
it out on that line " with the cOrpo-
ration.

SPLENDID WHEAT. - We were
shown last night few heads of wheat
taken from the field Of Philip Deus
ner, in Union township, which in size
and beauty are equal to any We ever
saw. Each head is over five inches
in length, and some of them over six
inches long. We counted one head
not the largest-it contained eighty
two grains. The wheat is denomi-
mated the White Rock. The seed
came from Posey County. The heads
were taken at random, and do not
vary half an inch in length. Mr..
Deusper has about fifteen acres of
this wheat.

s DAMAGE By THE STORM. = The
heavy rain yesterday afternoon caused
the cutters TO overflow at the corner
of Leet and Center Streets, and Mr..
Understandable cellar was filed with
water, and caEed in again Two other
cellars were also overfOwn. This is
the third time, We believe, that Mr..
Underestimate cellar has been dam
aged in this way, and all because the
mouth of the sewer is too small. Two
bills for damages caused before by
this sewer, are now pending before
the City Council. and something
ought to be done to save further dam
ages of this kind. The City Council
should give this matter their early
attention.

BEFORE JUSTICE MoTERNAN-
Mary A. Hinneth. from Centre Town
ship, made affidavit against Mary
Lamb, Thos. MeLain and Anna Me
Lain, (the latter two being ehildren)
for provoking her. The case was
considerably mixed, and was tried by
jury of five men, who fined Mary
Lamb one cent aud the costs. An
effort was then made to compromise
the case Of the children, but one of
them, Mary McLain, was fined by
tide Justice one cent AMI the costs.
Such cases as the above ought not
to go before the courts. A simple
provoke" prosecution is ridiculous.
If one person assaults another, and is
arrested and fined, and can then
swear that he was provoked, it is
about an even thing. But to rush
into court for being called some ugly
name and swear out provoke war
rant" looks rather foolish
