BARLOw's AIT GALLEY, 20 Pennsylvania
avenue.
SIXTH wAED REPUBLICAN Gu B.-The regu-
lar meeting of this club was held last evening
1t Mission Chapel, on 10th street east, the Pres
ident, Charles Champion, in the chair.
Commissioner T.. ). Atkinson, of the Fifth
Ward, addressed the meeting by invitation, and
in the course of his remarks in reference to the
men Of the reform party, charge all who affili-
ated with that party with synIpathiZing with
rebels and copperheads-
This raised the ire of Councilman X. A.
Simms, Who seemed to think he was the target
Of Atkinson's censure. He explained why he
voted against the bill last week authorizing the
Mayor 10 anticipate the revenue to the amount
OF $2o0,Oo. He wanted to see the laboring men
paid, but he was satisfied that the laborers would
never receive a cent of the money, but that il
would be squandered by Mayor Bowen as all
The other money had been, and, no doubt, also
for electiOneering purposes. What right had
BOwen's pimps To come here from the Fifth
Ward and fling dirt at any member of this club
because such member was opposed to Mayor
Bowen? Continuing he said:-'.I spent money
10 elect Bowen, and now shall do all can to
defeat him without sacrificing my Republi-
canism. am not n Bowen man. now tell youD
ISeyeral yoiCes.-''NO. nor / either."1
Mr.. Simms--"No. and there are PLENTY that
amt as he viii find out time enoug gh." Con-
tinuing, Mr.. SimnS asked who had the right to
impugn his Repub.icanisn because he objected
TO one man in the party? And he noticed too
that the only men who thought no man Re-
publican who opposed MaXOr Bowen, were
those IN Office under him, who dare not move
handor foot TO express their opinion but on the
one side. He had never made 4 dollar ct the
with his course in the Councils they could ask
him TO resign. and he would do so at once
Cries of ''No, don't resign" We'll stand by
Mr.. Atkinson explained that he did not refer
70 Mr. Simms, but to those who were disturbing
the harmony of the party.
Mike Sinner then took the floor for his usual
sermon, which commences ..I'se been in the
navy yard for forty years" He admonished the
Sixth Ward representatives in Councils, that
they must not affiliate with Holmes Hatton or
Crane, and claimed that to be good Republi-
can. man must be a Bowen man.
The meeting here dispersed without hearing
the tongue lashng which it was expected Mike
would give Alderman Champion for hauling
him over the Goals at the previous meeting, and
over which Mike feels so sore that il as thought
ne would open last night in retaliation.
The CASE OF WALLACH AGAINST WAr1AcU
We published few DAYS since the allegations of
the plaintiff in the case of Charles Wallach vs.
W ID. Wallach, then pending in the Supreme
Court OF this District, in which the complainant
sought TO make W. ID. Wallaeh a constructive
trustee of his, Charles wallach,) certain pro-
Perty OF the latter having been sold under a
chased by his brother, W. ID. Nallsch. judge
Cartier in giving his decision said: ssThe eyi-
aence shows that deed of trust had been made
by charles Wallach TO n lady in Maryland to
secure debt, and that she became alarmed for
the security of her debt and demanded a rule.
w: ID. Wallach, under these circumstances, re-
paired to the auctioneer and told him that he
was so busy with the affairs of the nation that
ne could not spare the time to attend the sale
but If the sale was made brief he would attend,
and that he wanted TO protect the family of his
brother. He was advised by Mr.. Fisher how IL
could be sold, and the probable brevity of the
sale: The complainants ask that the sale to w
~. w sllach, the purchaser, be held to have been
purchased for the benefit of Charles wallach
We find in the evidence an idea of svmpathy
Tor the family of Charles wallach. but there
- no evidence whatever thai he had
any intent to benefit Charles Wallach himself.
AT the sale there was a large crowd of citizens
real estate buyers-who came To buy property
cheap, as all men desire to DO. The sale was
made in the presence Of all OF them. and the
trustee. Undoubtedly there was an impression
that W. ID. Wallach intended TO buy for the ben
eht OF Charles Wallach's family, but there is no
evidence that Mr.. w. ID. Wallach said or did
anything to produce that impression. The trus-
tee was there; he made the sale; he ratified the
eaie, and there l. no attack made on the sale;
that allowed to stand but the court is asked TO
Charles, IN his purchase. This the court can
not do Although the property sold below Its
cost, below its intrinsic value, vet the evidence
shows that IL brought good price at the time il
y as sold Ii was not more than half its cost, il
rs true not what il sold for when the hopes of the
nation and its capital revived. and it " as found
that Charles Wallach 9 friends could not destroy
it, The court had come to the conclusion 10 dis
miss the bill. They consider ii a fair case to be
resolved by two brothers under the laws of fra
ternity; that il should be under the rule of the
charities, and that God settle the question be-
tween them when they have got through. Bill
dismissed.
