MIR. LeBart some time ago came to
this city and has since been negotiating
with Mr.. W. w. Ford for the purchase
OF his saloon and property, No. SOB Madi-
SON street. The bargain was finally
made, and the money, or part of the
money, was to have been paid over on
Wednesday. Somehow Mr.. LeBart did
not receive any money from 81. Louis
as he represented. On last Wednesday
morning be took possession OF the sa-
loon ana borrowed $l5 from MIR. r.
Mcdonald, who occupies the rear room
OF the same building as dining
saloon, for the purpose ofpaylng his Gov
ernment tax. The license only costing
$l2 so, he returned the balance of the
money to Mr.. Mcdonald, still owing him
the $l2 90, which he promised to repay
in the afternoon, as soon as his money
arrived. His money, however, did not
come, and Mcdonald began to suspect
that all was not right. Alter making
some inquiries he had Mr., LeBart ar
rested upon the charge OF obtaining
money under false pretenses. The case
was brought before 'Squires Francis
and Duvenick last evening, and contin-
uedt until this morning, when it
was dismissed. General A. Morris,
an attorney on the part of the prose-
eutor, made some heinous attacks upon
the character of Mr.. LeBart. for which
ne was censured'b by Colonel O'Neal, at

neys. The eloquence OF MIR. Morris has
often filed the 'Squires' Courts Of this
city, and therefore he objected to being
attacked in his own place OF business.
