Jury and Counsel NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
ton of tho Jurors Over the Unaccounta-
BILE Leakage-A Single M sdemssnor Con-
sidered Yesterday.
The district court opened at 10 O'Clock
yesterday morning pursuant to adjourn
ment, Judge Brill presiding. Mr.. G. d.
OBrien appeared in the interests of the de-
PENDANT in the case of the State against
Charles P. Appel, charged with bastsrdy.
Counsel addressed the court for the purpose
of having the case dismissed, which called
for explanation.
The parties to the liasion had settled the
case between themselves, with Hymen as the
arbitrator. The court inquired as to when
the marriage had taken place, and requested
definite knowledge as to its consummation.
His honor was assured that the parties had
been married on Thursday evening, which
was backed by the assertion of brother
lawyer, who ventured the remark that Mr..
O'Brien had oficiated as groomsmsn. In
view of the above the case was ordered
stricken from the calendar.
The attention of the court was then called
to the Orschel- Isaac conspiracy cases, which
will be set for trial at 10 o'clock on Monday
morning.
The grand jury filed into court at 1890
foreman passed over seven true bills or indict-
ments, and as will be observed by the report,
the true inwardness of their esoteric proceed
ings was faithfully published in yesterday g
issue of the GLOBE, the official returns be-
ing as follows:
John Sullivan. the window fend, indicted
for malicious conduct, which consisted of
smashing the plate glass windows of Tenn
ple's saloon on Seventh street. He express
ed desire to plead to- day, and will be &C
conmodated. Being out of funds, Mr..
Mccarthy was assigned by the court to de-
fend the case.
Michael Kelly, indicted for the larceny of
quantity of clothing from q hotel and
boarding house, condusted by Mr.. James
Meyer, and situated on Fort street. He will
be defended by MIR. E. G. Rogers.
Edward Hennessey and VIM. Jones, in
dicted for highway robbery and smuggling 9
man named John Nusbaum. They were
lacking the needful and tho defense was as
signed to Mr.. Mccarthy.
Bartlett Wilson, wiry youth with q
States prison cut to his jib, indicted for
stealing buffalo and other valuable robes. He
too is out of money and will be defended by
Mr.. MCCARTHY.

under the name of Frank Kuntz for burglar
Izing Bradshaw's saloon, on West Third
street. When arraigned yesterday he could
stated. He will be defended by Mr.. Beals.
After the indictments had been presented,
the court was notified that the grand jury
had additional business to transact, where
upon they we're permitted to retire. The
court then adjourned until 10 o'clock this
morning.
After submitting their indictments the
grand jury retired to their inaccessible eyre
in the old court house to further mediate
upon the devious doings of wicked and pre-
verse generation. A prominent member of
the honorable body drew forth oopy of the
GLOBE, and 10, the doings of the day pre-
ceeding were spread open to their astOnished
yaze as on the inspired aud mystic pages of
scroll.
The circle, SO to speak, was seized with the
direful symptoms of CONSERVATION. Meta
phorically speaking, the odiferous air was
filed with sulphurious oaths and stronger
lmprecations. The charmed circle had been
ruthlessly invaded and their deliberations
shorn of the secret air of mystery. The be-
trayer was sought, but he listed not to their
cunning Establishments. Finally, one of the
jurors, who is polished gentleman withal,
CHANGED to rest his optic on the paragraph
referring to Mr.. Webb and his irrepressible
COW case, when straightway the gloomy walls
of the old room reverberated with ringing
notes of prolonged laughter.
The disembodied form of the GLOBE mis-
sionary was attracted by the positive cur
rent of jollity, and was straightway waited
to its obssrvational perch on wings light and
ethereal as zephyr. The grand jury then
got down to business, and the GLOBE is
sorry to report that the efforts Of the
honorable body, throughout the day, were
confined to the consideration of q single
misdemeanor.
The case taken up was that of Levi Coo
ley, charged with the embezzlement of $40
from young man named Church, residing
in the Hawkeye State. The latter came to
st. Paul with team of horses which we're
disposed of by Church, who acted as agent,
the alleged crokedness consisting in the re-
tention of large sum of money over his
regular commission.
Several witnesses were examined, but up
to the time of adjournment last night the
case had not been settled.

been struck by the appearance of solitary
and melancholy individual who kept unin
terrupted vigil by roosting on the bannister
leading to the court room. 1t was the fig
ure of I. w. Webb, who sat in woful con-
temptation over the obstacles encountered
with perverted jury who refuse to tackle
kindly in the evolution of his celebrated COW
case.
Rural Rooster Robbed.
Yesterday morning John Marks, young
man hailing from Egan town, Dakota county,
reported to the police that he had been robbed
