y. TODD, THE LABOR AGEST.-Ihe sub.
feet of several laborers who were grossly
slefrauded by something pretending to be
a labor agency in this city, has been pretty
well ventilated in the REPUBLICAN. and
now we have small chapter TO add. The
case was up for examination before Judge
Gernon, yesterday. th&p is. the charge
against j. Il. Madden and J. Todd. for OBJ.
Gaming money by false pretenses from
seven poor iaborers. The testimony
amounts to almost exactly VIVA. we have
published, and something more. Indeed.
;he victims were more emphatic and posi-.
tive in their statements yesterday than at
any previous time, and the erossexamina.
ton failed TO trouble them. The defense
made next to no showing, further than to
make the assertion that it was a case OF at.
tempted matchmaking. Judge Gernon de.
Glared the case to be one of the most vii.
famous which ever came before him, and to
protect the innocent labOrer lie was com.
PEELED TO send j. Todd one of the &C.
oused. 70 the Criminal Court. fixing the
bond in each of the seven cases at $500.
The man Madden has not been arrested;
but should he never appear, New Orleane
will be the better for his absence. 1t is
hoped that the result of this case will have
sa!V!ary effect.
