The Court Record.


Court of Common Pleas-Judge Torrance.
 This court came in yesterday morning at 10 o'clock.
 The case of Isaac N. Damn vs. Henry J.. Woodruff was commenced. In 1874 Damn loaned Woodruff $2, 800, and as security took mortgage from him and his wife on house and lot which had previously been mort gagged for S5,OOO. The property was repre- sented as clear from any incumbrance but when Damn foreclosed he had to pay $23o of city assessments. He thereupon sued Wood ruff and wife to recover $500 for breach of covenant in the warranty deed. The defend ants claim, among other things, that the assessments at the time the deed was execut- ed were not membranes.
 Court adjourned until Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.

THE VALLEY CASE.
Reported Confession by Jennie
 Cramer.

An Important Revelation Made a Year
 Ago Last Winter.
 What appears to be reliable new feature in the Cramer case, and which if true will have an important bearing in the case was heard last night. It is that the deceased girl Jennie Cramer made a confession in conf- dence to an older lady friend some months before her death that she had been seduced by young man. He had taken her to ride and they stopped at hotel and after re- treatments had been served she submitted to the wishes of her companion. The confess sion was made with many tears and was im- parted by the lady to friend but day or two ago in view of the testimony the past week in court to show that Jennie Cramer was virtuous previous to the last week of her life. There seems to be no reason to doubt that the statement as to the confession hay ing been made is correct, and there are many other circumstances connected with the ride which occurred year ago last winter,- which it is asserted will tend to add still fur | ther to the sensation attaching to the case
