NEW ORLEANS SUNDAY OCTOBER


Judge Pardee Rxplains The lockwood
ise. Check
Some time ago, one Of tho suburban ps-
pers published letter from John Lock
wood, formerly of this city, but now living
In Dallas, Texas, which contained some nm
pleasant inferences, though no direct proofs,
against Judge Pardee. The matter was
passed over in silence by the judge until
the case was brought to public attention by
the Bulletin. Thereupon, he addressed the
following letter to that paper, which sp-
pesred in it's columns yesterday morning:
CARRoLLToN. La, October q, 1876.
TO the 1ditor Of the B. uetin:
SRA reputable paper like the Bulletin
having published . certain charge against
me by one John Lockwood, hasten to say,
for the satisfsoiiOn of many personal friends,
that the charge, in substance and inference,
IL totally false. nsver received the check
referred TO-, nor any sum whatover, Tor
drawing or lobbying for any ordinance, gas
or otherwise --., s-
never received the check referred from
John Look wood or any gas company 1t all,
| nor for any service Whatever.
Tho check referred to 10 da1ea-so0o stx
months afser tho gas erdiasncs in Carroll
| ton was adopted, and long after the gas
works were in full operation in that city.
So far - know, or have information 40
| to its consideration, it had NO connection
| with the gas ordinance or gas matters.
Az . stockholder of the Jeffrrson City
| Gas Company, and q property holder and
| taxpayer in CarrOllton. l favored the gas
ordinance. I never lobbied for it at all.
| There WAS NO opposition to 1t from any
source that know of.
| The check r~terred to was received from
friend. and tho only interest ever had in
it or its proceeds was tO credit tho amount
in psrt payment and settlement Of half .
| years salary during my absence from the
State, and in set lement Of Jerry and levee
interests long outstanding.
| To my personal iriends l believe can
| give the fullest and most satisfactory show.
| ing of this and many other matters with
| which am charged.
do MOI expect to satisfy my enemies in
| regard TO any matters proved to myself.
TO men and newspapers who live BY

Politically, have to soy only, that for

SfzAws show which way tho wind blows,
ous whom they come flying in from different
dirsctions tho intelligence brought BY them
y . little confusing. We heard yesterday
ct case in point. The candidate for Con.
gress IN tho 49, district received the
other day BY mail the card Of we'll known
Washington hotel, setting forth in glowing
terms the advantages possessed BY that e.
tablishment over ell similar ones at the
capital. "Good," !" said the candidate. "At
least somebody thiaks it likely I shall be
elected, and 10 ready to meet mo with .
landlords welcome" But there vas an.
other letter brought in the same mail from
tho same place, inclosing the card of .
Warrington law firm, with the following
suggestive note:

Tho hotel card was looked upon - an omen
OF success, but when tho dreadful sugges-
tions of tho lawyers card flashed ON the
mind Of the candidate he started after the
letter carrier to cay that he has moved

THE PRIVATE MARKET WAR.
Judge Lynch yesterday sentenced Ber.
natd bsrtho. the keeper Of the private mar
ket corner of Magazine and Robin streets,
to ton days in tho Parish Prison for con.
tempt Of court, and also ordered the sheriA
% keep that market closed.
The defendsut's counsel applied imme.
distely to Judge xeunier tor . writ oi
hAbeas corpus, but the judge, guided BY
the decision Of Judge Morgan, Of the Su.
prone Court, that Judge Lynch was josti'
6ed and fully authorized BY Law, in such
cases, and also evidently annoyed bv dam
ago suits for $4,000, in consequence Of
former decisions in similar habess corUui
cases, refused 70 meddlo with the sentence
Of the judge of tho Superior District Court
Barthe went to jail. H4
We have since been assured by compe-
tent authority that this article contains sew
eral errors. and thus, inadvertently, may
have done injustice to Judge Meunier ..
we'll - to the private market men, in THU
case represented by Mr.. BArthe.
We are informed that no official spplica
ton for writ of habeas corpus in behalf
of Mr.. Bsrthe was made to Judge Meunier
that he never refused to issue such writ
that he has never expressed himself ss like
" to be guided or Influenced by the 60
called decision of Mr.. Justice Morgan, no,
does he consider the ruling of Judge Nor
gan as in any wise binding or cOntrolling
him; that the case before Judge Morgan
w.s sot presecsssa By aay one having any
knowledge of the case. and the decision il
not decision of the Supreme Court; th'
relstar WAS not, and never was, keeper o.
. private market; and, finally, that Judge
Meunier is not, and has not been, annoyed
by the silly suits for damages that have
been instituted against him.
