OF twenty, three bullocks ftllen down

That was ten times worse than any
cattle plague they ever had, or ever
should have In Somersetshire, l5l
fresh outbreaks were reported last week,
while IN Worcestershire there was an
increase OF 90. As regards Scotland,
the activity Of the local authorities has
had the effect OF snbduing the foot aud

A POLICE JUSTICE DENOUNCED

Charles Snedecor was committed before JUS

$4,000 bail, on charge OF swndling a Phil
adelphia broker out OF t9,2OO, by means Of forged
Allentown Pcnr) school bonds. Upon the testi-
mony OF broker named Muir, he indicted by the
Grand Jury; Judge Hogan refused several times to
allow the prisoner to testify against Henry c. Cole and
Justice Coulter finally committed the latter Mur's
complaint and Snedecors evidence SnedecOr appeared
az witness against Cole Saturday, at the Tombs
Police Court, aud the defense waving examination,
$4,000 bail was accepted. Counsel denounced the arrest
OF Cole as conspiracy to Durc his clients reputation
and stated that Cole had been the principal witness in
the case OF Joshua d. Miner recently tried in the United
States Court of this district for cOunterfeitng. The
jury disagreed, and the complaint made against
Cole TO invaitate his testimony before jury when the
is again brought up for trial. He also charged
Justice Coulter with being concerned in the conspiracy
with Miner AGAINST Cole.
Justice Hogan denounced the actions OF Justice Cou
ter in unmeasired terms. 1t had always been the Gus
tom among the Police Justices. and the rules governing
the Board required that one Magistrate should not In
terfere IN case which had previously been before an
Associate Justice. He said the whole matter con-
spracy 10 sure the release OF SnedecOr. against whom
he properly tried.
Justice Coulter replied in equally heated terms TO the

Snedecor had been made before Justice Hogan aud said
that he hsd been misled by Muir.
