Julius Rudowsky for Slan-
der, Laying Damages
at SIC, 600.
Hr. Rudowsky is Bound Over tc
Keep the Peace, and His
Wife is Fined for OBJ
scene and Abusive
Language.
Mr.. Rudowsky is Knocked Down
on His Own Doorstep by An
Unknown Villain.

Sometime ago Capt. Haserodt left
the sandwich Island" and leased
the Atlantic House from Julius
Rudowsky for three years. He fur
nished the house up nicely, and
soon built up a good run of business.
Mr.. Rudowsky and family had
moved into the first house west of
the Atlantic on Howard street, and
it was not long before the two fam
lilies fell out, and then continual
trouble ensued. The Haserodts
and their friends intimated
that Rudowsky was jealous
of Haserodt's success, anu wanted
to get him out of the house, so that
he could again run it, while Ru-
dowsky, on the other hand, denied
all such insinuations. Howeve., the
family difficulties only increased as
time flew on. Mrs. Rudowsky, not
long ago, INDUCED, it is said, in
some very unpretty language
towards Miss Frederick Haserodt,
one of the handsome daughters of
the landlord, defaming her charac-
ter for chastity.
Miss HaserOdt took counsel, and
began q suit against Julius RudOw-
sky for SANDER. The petition has
been filed in the Office of the clerk
of the District Court by her AttOr-
neys, Hon. J. C.. GOWN, and Col.
Graves, and goes on to relate, among
other things, that the plaintiff had
previously borne a good name, and
was respected and esteemed among
her friends and acquaintances as q
person of good character, moral
worth and chastity; and bad never
committed any of the saiG mention
ed grievances, OIL suspected to be
unchaste. She states that she is
nineteen and unmarried, that she has
been employed in the hotel as a SER
want; thai :said building contains a
number Of rooms, occupied by gen.
tlemen; yet that the defendant well
knowing the premises, malicionsly
intending to injure her in name,
fame and character, and to bring
her into public scandal, and to cause
it to be suspected that the plaintiff
was low and vile, and unchaste,
ETC., did on the oath of June, say,
"There she (meaning the plain
tiff comes singing. She is an
actress, in several characters.
She acts naked and in her night
shirt. She sneaksand steals around
in the hotel" &C., &c. The petition
states that Mrs. Rudowsky intimeted
that Miss Haserodt was unchaste
while in the hotel, made money in
that way, and thus kept up the
house. The damages are laid at ten
thousand dollars.
Friday morning hOstilities
were renewed. MI. Haserodt, it is
said, probably having been excited
thereto, used some threatens
irg language, and INDUCED in
a hostile demonstration towards
Mrs. Rudowsky. Her husband
got his +unloaded revolver,
went up town and bought some car
tridges, and returning in front of
the Atlantic House with his weapon,
which he claims he had not loaded,
wanted to hear Haserodt repeat
the language he had used towards
his wife. No blood was spilled, but
Haserodt soon after had RudOwsky
arrested and required to give $1,000
bonds to keep the peace, before Jus.
tice Hald.
Mrs. Rudowsy had made the re-
mark afterwards, upon seeing Miss
Frederike that "she was a $4,000
-" and also used some Ian
guage which was considered both
abusive and obscene.
For this Offense, MI. Haserodt
had her arrested and brought be-
fore the police court, where she was
fined SO and costs, amounting in
all to $3.50. The case was prosecu-
ted by Gown and Graves, and de-
Tended by c. A. Baldwin. There
considerable racy sharp-shoot-
ing done, which greatly interested
the large crowd present.
But the end of the Rudowsky
troubles was not yet. About
nine o'clock in the evening, as
he was sitting In his door, listening
to the music at Thiel-'s garden;
some unknown fellow came up and
asked him the direction to the
Jones House, and as Rudowsky was
about to show him, he knocked him
down with q Sung shot evidently,a as
It cut his eye deeply,and rendered
him insensible for five minutes. Mrs.
followed the man o q
few blocks, but he got away from
her, and she returned to her hus-
who had fallen on the doorstep
