ADJUSTMENTS.
4 Celebrated Cnse


It is pleasant in these DAYS of tawdry So
ciety plays and grand ballots to have an oc
casional return to something that has the
smack and flavor of the old time melodrama,
with human motive and a suggestion Of
human nature at the bone aud core of it.
The reflection is apropos to the production at
The Grand last night, of the beautiful and to
use stock phrase realistic melodrama "a
Celebrated Case" The drama was pre-
scented by the Lewis Morrison ORA
matte company with pleasant,
and in many respects, powerful cast.
The play is in four acts, preceded by pro-
logue, which describes the motive of the ac-
ton. The prologue introduces the audi
enee to the home of Jean Remand, the hero
of the play, the time of the action being on
the eve of the battle of Fontenoy. Rcnaud
appears in the character of soldier, who
steals home to bid his wife and child fare
well before entering the expected battle.
During the short and tender interview he
intrusts to her keeping package of jewels
and papers given him by the Count de Nor
nay while apparently expiring on the field Of
battle. After his departure the home of the
Renaud's is entered by an assassin, who
traces Jean from the battle field for the pur-
pose of securing the property of the counts
He demands the property and is refused,
when a struggle takes place between him and
Madeline, Renaud's wife, during which the
latter Is stabbed and killed. The child of
Renaud, asleep in an adjoining room, is
awakened by the struggle and cries out with
alarm, when the assassin compels Madeline
to quiet her by saying it is her father. The
child is thus made to be the witness against
her father who is condemned on her testi-
moDy 10 the galleys. Subsequently, after a
lapse of twelve years, the identity of the as
sassin is discovered, the plot is worked out
to an admirable finale.
As said, the leading characters of the cast
are very cleverly impersonated. The role of
Rinaud is taken by Mr. Lewis Morrison, who
gives a strong and vivid representa- IN he
depicts the anguish and poignant grief of the
part admirably, and his acting is natural
and without suggestion of being forced.
Next to Mr.. Morrison the character of Adrl-
enne, by Miss Eliel, appeals to the audience
for its touching simplicity and tenderness
She portrays the trying character in highly
skillful manner and the role is not lacking
in flashes of high dramatic power
Her reading is faultless and the i'm
personation is worthy of all praise
The roles taken by Miss Thorn, Miss
stanhope and Miss Brown are all well taken,
not to forget the acting of little Daisy Ches-
ter, who appears in the prologue. The char
acter Of O'Rourke, as taken by Mr.. McCabe
is marked by fine touches of humor, and
Mr.. Kahn and Mr.. Wheatcroft both display
finished acting.
The audience was large and highly ap-
preciative last night, and there were several
hearty recalls. The same play tonight.

The Papers in the Great Suit Filed in

Special Telegram to the Globe
MILWAUKEE, July 81 At late hour this
afternoon the answer in the celebrated case
of Peter McGeogh against Daniel Wells, Jr.,
was Med in the circuit court. The answer
denles most of the material allegations of
the complaint, but admits the lard, wheat
and pork deals in Chicago and Milwaukee
IN 1881, 1882 and 1888. Mr. Wells denies
that any partnership existed between himself
and McGeogh, and says that most of the
business relating to such deals as were made
through the firm of McGeogh, Everingham u
Co., ana the aggregate amount of such bust
ness was several million dollars Mr. Wells.
as one OF the employers in such transactions,
reserved from the firm named statements of
sales and purchases from time to time, but
denies that he received statements of all the
sales and purchases made for himself and
McGeogh, and claims that the state
ments received did not show cor
reetly and accurately the profits and
losses upon the transactions. The
statements were condensed and it was i'm
possible for him to thoroughly understand on
| account of their meagerness. The sales and
purchases were all made in The name of the
firm. He alleges that the firm of McGeogh,
d Co., become insolent vim June, 1885, and
| McGeogh, who was member of the firm,
was unable to meet his obligations. but
wells never pretended to be insolent.
His counsel advised that nearly all of
the transactions were in violation of the
laws OF Wisconsin and Illinois against the
gam bler, but he never set this up as de-
tense to his liabilities. He paid McGeogh
$3.50, 900 toward effecting settlement with
the creditors, which was larger sum- than
MeGeogh was bound to pay. He never pre-
tended to be insolvent, but when told hy
| McGeogh that the lard losses amounted to
100000, he said he could not raise that
amount of money.
This is the long awaited answer. in the
celebrated litigation between the two great
| spectators who were shorn of millions by
the great lard deal of last July. The case is
dragging along in the courts and II efforts
to compromise have failed. The plaintiffs
and defendants will be examined before the
court commissioners at an early day.
| 1t will be remembered that Wells first
| brought suit demanding an accounting OF
the deal, and McGeogh then instituted a
counter suit, charging that Wells defeated
the deal by refusing to advance the promised
money and claiming a million of dollars.

for some time the old mans brawny hands
gripped its throat like yise One fore paw
was fastened In the trap and Tom had his
knee in the other; but meanwhile the hind
feet were free and doing serious work The
sharp hooked claws had torn the
mans leather leggins into pieces,
and were decorating his limbs
terribly. If he could have used his hand,
the knife in his belt would have ended the
struggle; but to loosen his grip upon the
creatures throat, for an instant would have
been almost certain death for him.
He called for help, but none OF us, who
had tardily followed, were within hearing
Something, he knew, must be done quickly,
for he was bleeding and began to lose
strength. His grasp was slackening. A few
moments more and he would be at the mercy
of those savage jaws. Not far ahead the
light was streaming into the end of the dark

Summoning all his strength, the old man
pushed the beast few inches toward the OPP
ening. 1t struggled furiously; no one save
mountain giant could have held 1t down.
Again and again the old hunter moved for
ward, and again would he have to pause and
tighten his grip about the powerful neck OF
the struggling beast.
He had almost reached the opening, when
he found that he was growing faint from loss
of blood; objects began to grow bleared and
misty. But he drove back the faintness and
moved again. He was at the end Of the
"burrow."
One more effort and he was out. His hands
were numb; the cliff and trees above seemed
like shadow, indistinct and tremulous. Could
he move again! The panther, nearly suffQ-
Gated, had almost ceased its struggles; but as
his grasp relaxed it began to writhe again.
This nerved him for one last final effort He
moved a little nearer the edge of the preci-
pice, then summoning all his remaining
strength he showed the panther, trap and
''anchor,n over the ledge, and sent them rat

hundred feet into the gorge below.
