TROUBLE IN COURT AND OUT OF IT.
Last Monday evening Justice Falls, OF the
Seventh Justice Court, had some trouble
with Charles Lemais+re, his half brother,
and William Hollis. The last named was
arrested by court officer for disturbing the
peace, but finally obtained his release Dy
furnishing the required bond. Before Hollis
was committed to prison Lemaistre acted
rudely, for which he also was committed.
bat was soon afterward released on parole.
Afterwa Hollis and Lemalstre met
Mr.. Mandel, one of the court clerks, and
knocked him down. and then pursued him
to the courtroom. Judge Falls witnessed
portion. of this conduct, and Lemaistre
dared him to step into the street.
Yesterday morning both accused were
arraigned before the judge. While in the
court room Lemaistre became very exclfed
and attempted T, draw q revolver, intend
ing to shoe. the Judge, but before he could
get his weapon out several persons had
hold Of him and prevented probable homi-
eide. Judge Falls rushed 10 his private
room to secure weapon, and was followed
bv one of his friends. The Judge, not q eing
who the person was and believing 1t to pc
his half brother suddenly turned and nrec,
barely missing Mr.. Garry. By that time
Lemaistre was secured and sent to prison,
but Hollis escaped. On former occasion
Lemaistre attempted to shoot the judge,
but his pistol fortunately did not 60 of.
The entire trouble, it is said, grew out OF q
family difficulty, the particulars OF which
have not been revealed. The affair OF yes
terday brought out the full force OF the
Ninth Street Market. It must be remem-
bered that the seventh justice court mas
the powers of Municipal POLICE Court as
we'll as it's regular civil business, which
accounts for the fact that Judge Falls tries
criminal cases.

HOMICIDE IN THE CONTROVERSIAL noon
Yesterday E.ienne Carton, . cOlOred man,
and J. P. Guinault met in the courthouse,
jackson SQUARE. and qusrreled over sue
cession case in the Second District Court;
in fact, it was second edition OF contro-
yersy between the two persons prev 0usly
held over the same subject. 1t was yes r
day generally believed among the friends ms
of both parties that they were unarmed
when the Quarrel began. Ait r few warm
words the men separated, and it was sup
posed that there would be no further
trouble. Mr.. Guinsult ct pped into one
of the court rooms and Mr.. Carton
walked to the large door on st. Ann
street. Immediately afterward Mr.. Gui-
nsult stood in the large passage way
talking to Mr.. Walter Rogers and another
gentleman, wien, it Is said, MT Carton mas
lily stepped between them and struck Mt
Gninault with an umbrella. They there
upon clinched, and q shot wss fired by
Guinault at close range. 80 close that Car
Ions shirt front was burned. The contest
ants then separated, and Guinault emptied
his pistol at Carton, shooting quite delib-
erately Three bullets entered Carbon
body, and either one of them would have
caused death. Carton died almost - soon
as the firing ceased, and the body was sent
to the police station near by. Officer Van
horssen appeared almost the instant the
frat shot was heard and made good effort
to prevent a collision, but his Ct
forts were unavailing. However, he
arrested MI. Guinault and looked
him up. The accused did not deny
having done the shooting, end claims that
before be drew his pistol he saw Carton
have . dirk krife in one Of bis hands, but
no knife was found. A revolver was found
in Cartons pocket att,r death, and the
cylinders were all loaded. Carbon YVES 9
mulatto, about ffty.6ve years old, and
owned some property. Both deces Ted ana
accused were iuterest ID in the succession of
the Boutees.
The affair created considerable excite
meut in and around the courthouse, as
both parties were well known to the ire
oueuters of that building.
