A PoYDRAs STREET ROw.-Leon Suber-
Vile, who keeps coffeehouse at No. 255
Poydras street, was arrested last night at
the instance of his wife, Maggie, who
charged him with insult, abuse and threats.
A warrant was also issued for the barkeeper
of the house, which is said to be the resort
of thieves, but he had not been found at
late hour. She came to the first precinct
station about ten o'clock, in a very fright
ened and excited state, avsrring that these
two men would take her life, and begging
that her husband might not be released,
and that an officer might accompany her
home and arrest the barkeeper, who, she
insisted, was still in the house. She was
kindly treated at the station, and after be-
coming more calm, was escorted home by
Sergeant Foster.
