Charlie Spates Gets into u Scrape, but Is Re-
lieved by Judge Bundy.
The cases before His Honor yesterday were,
for the most part, devoid Of interest, save to
the immediate parties. Rumors were ahoat,
however, that later OH, the patience of the re-
porters and court officials would be rewarded
with the developments of something rich in
the case of Mrs. Julia Ready VS.. Charles Spates.
The latter PERSONA young man, Boosting u
flourishing moustacbe-was charged with as
saulting the complainant with intent to out
rage.
Mrs. Ready delicate young woman, first
took the stand, and stated that she resided at
l641 New Jersey avenue northwest, and that
she has been married number OF years. Coming
down to the case in questin, she testified that
she became acquainted with Spates about a
year ago. At first she seemed disposed to
criminate the young man to the fullest OK
tent but a lively cross-examinng ELECTED facts
which were not ut all creditable to the com
plainant herself. She stated that on Monday
evening last she went over to chat awhile
with a neighbor named Webster, who, in com.
pany with defendant. was sitting on the front
steps that as she was passing by them 10 Gu
ter the house Spates said If she would wait he
would kiss her. This pleasant little proposition
she Indignantly rejected, whcreupon he fol-
lowed her into the house. Here the
accused alleged that Spates insisted
upon the allowance of improper performances
and that she called for Mr.. Webster several
times and for Mrs, W., who was up stairs dress
ing.
Mr.. Webster on being sworn, stated that he
heard the call for assistance, but supposed
from tho tone of voice that they were simply
romping
Mrs. Ready, on being closely questioned,
admitted that Spates had once or twice before
| kissed her and been otherwise familiar also
| that she did not tell her husband Of the &C.
| currence on trial till the following night. She
had previously quarrcled with him, aud Of
| course didn't feel very communicative. Wher
he heard of it he called around to interview
young Spatos, but changed his mind ON be
| ing favored with sight of his muscular
development. The counsel for the defendant
| laid great stress upon the fact that Mrs. Ready
| had heretofore been not averse to the affection
ate demonstrations Of Spates, and then addet
| that the testimony in the present case wa
exceedingly weak and that therefore their
WAS little grounds for conviction. After the
exceptionally able argument His Honor dis
| missed the parties.
