worth, now at Montreal, assert that they
saw the sea-serpent of the Gasbe coast
on the voyage up. The monster rose
frequently thirty feet out of the water,
and sWelled out tremendously every
time. At the water line it was about
four feet in diameter; its head was that
of a conger eel; mouth that of a shark;
body striped like a mackerel; fins simply
immense, and voice a horrible yell
There is no doubt that the captain, who
is fully cOrrobOrated by the crew and
passengers, believes his story, which is
regularly entered on theship's log. Skep-
tics can object to nothing except that the
monster was seen at half a mile distance
by moonlight, which may have exaggera-
ted his size, if not his awful below.

assert that tho books Of Bateman & Co.
should be FREQ Of access to Swain or be
brought into court for examination. Tho
evidence before the court, he said, is that
Swain was furnished by Bateman Co.
with statements of tho condition Of his
account and made no complaint, and this
having been the case no court would al
low him TO come in at this late day and
on the plea of having been cheated de-
mand access to the books. He said that
IL appeared to him that the object Of this
inquiry by the defense was TO direct the
investigation to n trial of Batoman q
Co.'s banking firm. The only questions
In this case arc : Did Gen. Swain deposit
5000? Did he draw IL out2 and, Did he
sell tho memorandum of deposit after he
had drawn IL out?
Ho added that the Judge advocate had
not these books, consequently could not
he compelled to produce them, but the
defonse could call upon Bateman & Co. ID
produce them. He said he would assure
the defense that If produced, they would
find them marvelously and severely cor
rect.
Tho Judge advocate in his argument
said that If there was any practice the
courts had condemned, 1t was that of en-
deavoring 10 fish out evidence from the
books Of a business firm. Ho said he
would not lend himself to any fishing
expedition through the books of Bate
man & Co.
Judge Shellabarger, replying, said that
they wanted to show that Gen. Swain
had furnished $1,000 capital to his friend
Brown, the prosecution having stated
that he only furnished $4,000. He
wanted, he said. to show this by Bate
mans books, by showing that Brown was
credited thereon with deposit Of $1,000
The judge advocate said he could not
be called upon to produce books which
were not in his possession aud which he
could not obtain except by subp1nt
duces tecum. He said that If counsel fol
the defense would ask for such subpGns
he would cheerfully give it to them.
The argument had not been concluded
when the hour for adjournment arrived

tion be left open for further argument

twenty-seven years experience in the
music business, starts out now in his own
behalf at tho old stand, No. Dps Pennsyl-

the celebrated Steinway pianos which the
late firm enjoyed has been secured by
MIR. Droop, who is also the agent for the
pianos of Gaber & Brother, Wheelock,
Grovensteen & Fullor, and other makers.
These manufacturers had become so

while he was the active member of the
late firm during Mr.. Metzerott's long
illness, that they readily placed the en-.
tire control of their pianos in this district
in his hands. Mr., Droops long experience,
his thorough training as musician, his
business capacity and his courteous and

success, and the patronage he has thus
