Justice 0tterbourg has case, and being OF
rather clinging disposition he adhcres 10 II wlth
much tenacity. 1t being demonstrated that Mt
Merritt the cashier of the metropolitan Hotel never
saw the cOOIed sailors $50 bill both by direct test-
mOny and by the discovery of the bill in the hands
OF the sailors wasberwoman, the logical thing
would seem to be the dismissal of the case. but
this would remove Justice Otterbourg from the 10
of the buls-eye of pubic consideration 80 the
less of q case he has the more he adlourns
it over. This results from Willingness
to be scrutinizcd, which shows that the JUS
tee probably rreproachable man as well as an
agreeable object for the human eye TO rest upon,
but il would seem cheaper to arrest some parties
who have no visible means of support. and let the
persons involved in this mistake of colored man
20 about their business.
