ThrOuHh'a Hatchway.

Last evening about 5 O'Clock. Andy
Flaig, q young lad about sixteen years
old, who lives on the west side Of Race
street just below Green, was fatally in
jured by falling through hatchway at
No. 70 West Fifth street. He was on
the fourth floor at the time and was
about to descend on the elevator. The
elevator was about four feet below the
opening, when he attempted to jump on
the top beam.
He missed this and fell on the plat
form. He then rolled off and dropped
to the cellar. His skull was fractured,
one of his shoulders aud one OF his legs
were broken. The lad was put into a
hack and taken to his fathers shoe
store, on Race street. He died at noon
to-day, from the effects OF his injuries.
Coroner Maley was notified and will
hold an inquest this evening.

k1egaI Amenities.

Judge Lindemann and Major Black
burn came to some plain talk during the
session of the Police Court this morn
ing. The Major was indignant that His
Honor would not take cognizance of a
mass of testimony that was offered
showing conclus lively that the value put
upon the chain which the Majors cli-
jewelry store Of Harry R. Smith & Co.,
was excessive.
The idea was to get at the real value
of the chain, which, it was contended,
would bring the charge down to petit
instead of grand larceny. The Judge
refused to allow the charge to be
changed, whereupon the Major became
indignant, characterized the whole pro-
ceeding as farce, and reminded His
Honor that he could reter him to one OF
his own decisions in similar case,
where the same question coming up the
charge was made petit larceny, ami the
prisoner received then and there
WOrk-house sentence in accordance
with that grade OF crime.
The Judge was. firm, and held to his
decision and continued the case until
tomorrow morning in order to hear an
argument on the law. This little breeze
had cleared away, when the case OF Pat.
Mullaney came up. The Major was
also interested as senior counsel for
Mullaney. BY this time His Honors
brow had cleared, and he was in his
usual good humor. Mullaney waived
examination OH the charge OF murder,
and His Honor wishing perhaps to con-
ciliate the indignant attorney, addressed
him in reference to the question OF bail.

NEW YORK, Dec. ia Herald
special from st. Louis gives the results
of interviews with number of Ex-Con-
federates and others, OH the political
situation. Gen. Joe Shelby, Ex-Con.
tederate cavalryman, says he is with
President Grant, and believes the best
fighting element of the Confederates
will be with him when the tug comes.
President Grant is the decisive author
ity. If the Senate declares Hayes
elected and the House declares Tilden
elected, the course of the Executive
would decide it. To oppose the Exec
utiVe would be rebellion, and he has had
enough of that. He has no faith
in the Northern Democracy. Shelby
believes there will be trouble, and that
an armed conspiracy is Organizing
throughout the country to put Tllden in
the Executive chair by force.
Ex-Governor Reynolds, a prominent
Ex-Co1rederate, does not doubt Tilden's
election. and ii he was not sustained by
those who elected him, it would be q
clear surrender of constitutional liberty.
Ii the Louisiana Investigation showed
copclusively that Tilden carried Louis
lana, it would be impossible to prevent
his Inauguration, and very large army
would spring up almost Immediately TO
sustain him.
Secretary of State McGrath, Ex-Con-
federate officer, says the people who
elected Tllden will put him i'll the Pres
idential chair and Keep him there at any
cost, if necessary. He was in favor Of
fighting to perpetuate the legitimate re-
suite OF The election.
A. J. p. Garesch and John 7. Crisp,
both prominent Ex-Conrederates, held
the same opinion. They believe Grant
was determined to install Hayes, and 1t
would be an objectionable surrender to
tamely submt to such an outrage.
General Marmaduke, EX-Confederate
Chieftain, is now i'll New York TO confer
with Gov. Tilden with reference to lhe
speedy organization of the Missouri
Democrats to aid i'll enforcing Tilden's
inauguration. Marmaduke is to com.
manl the 1ilden forces in Missouri.
