Court Notes.


 The case against Sarah Langdon, charged with keeping house of ill-fame at 87 Union street, was disposed of in the City court yes- terdey morning. MT. BIydenburgh appeared for the accused and filed demurrer. Judge Studley was informed by Assistant Prosecut- iug Attorney Daley that the house kept by the accused was the one to which Annie Walsh, aged twenty, New Britain girl, had been enticed by Agnes Murray, alias Estelle Stewart, for immoral purposes. The girl after being an inmate for two days, was for tunate to escape Thursday without being out ragged or seduced.
 Judge Studley inquired if the Langdon woman was charged with enticing re- straining the girl MT. Daley said she was not; Mir. BlydeGburgh said that his client had nothing whatever to do with restraining 1 the girl, and in fact supposed she had left the house.
 ''The presumption" said Judge Studley, lis that 8 woman who keeps house of i'll fame is pretty apt to know what is going on in her house, and is also familiar with the wiles and tricks used to decoy and retain young girls for improper pur- poses." He then fined the accused $I00 and sent her to jail for six months. That's the highest penalty can make; wish I could make it five years" An appeal was taken and the bonds placed at $500 which were furnished by Wales O. Hotchkiss. In the case of the Murray girl the penalty was made $50 and costs and thirty days in jail for residing in 8 house of Ill fame, and for enticing the Walsh girl to enter the den the accused was bound over to the January term of the Superior court under a bond cf $1 1000. The same not being furnished the girl, who Is not more than twenty or twenty one, went to jail. According to the story told by the Walsh girl, she and the Mur- ray girl came over from the old country ] about a year ago in the same steamer, al- though they did not know each other until they met in Castle Garden. The latter set tied here and quickly went to the bad. The former went to New Britain to live with rel atlves. She kept up correspondence with the Murray girl, and was finally induced to come to this city under promise of getting 8 situation as domestic in 8 hotel Arriving here she was taken by the Murray girl to the Langdon house and her ruin unsuccessfulIy attempted. She managed to escape from the place and at once sought the police and told | her story.
 Robert Fitzpatrick, a street gamin, was before Judge Studley's court yesterday morning and was fined $7 and costs and sent to jail for thirty days for stealing 8 par of pants from the second hand clothinf store of Henry KelkemRn on Grand street. The commissioners, John c. Gallagher and Charles |. Ullman, on the insolvent estate of Gustave V. Engel yesterday reported pre- 1 ferfed claims amounting to S76.69, with gen. sFal claims of @1, 167.60.

The Court Record.
Supreme Court of ErrOrs.

Supreme Court of ErrOrs.
 This court came in yesterday morning at 10 o'clock.
 The hearing was continued upon the case of Luzon B. Morris, trustee of the Wetmore Machine company, against George B. Grin nell and George B. Grinnell vs. the Wetmore Machine company. The suits involve the validity of 8 mortgage of SC, 800 held by Griunell against the Wstmore Machine company. The trustee of the estate claimed that no legal obligation existed be- cause the mortgage was witnessed by only one person and because the mortgsgee did not take possession of the mortgaged proper ty at the time the instrument was given. The Superior court decided against Grinnell.
 In the afternoon arguments were heard in the case of the New Haven Savings bank against William J. Atwater. The defendant in 1879 purchased from Edward T. Trow- bridge piece of property in St. John street upon which there was a mortgage of SS5, 900. Subsequently the bank obtained foreclosure decree against Alr. AtWater, the time for the redemption of tine property being fixed for the first Monday in January, 1881. On the day the decree was issued Atwater deeded the property to James McNamara, of Madison, with the object, as the plaintiff declares, of avoiding liability for the taxes, al though it was his purpose to re- tain possession and take the benefit of all the rents up to the time fixed for tho redemption. McNamarA being without means, the property came into the possession of tho bank under fore closure, with 8 lien upon it for the unpaid taxes. These were paid by the bank, which then brought suit against Atwater to recover and upon justice trial obtained judgment for $44. So the case went to the Court of CommoH Pleas and from there to the Supreme court by the defend ants appeal.
 Upon the conclusion of the arguments in this case the court adjourned to Tuesday at 10 8. m.
