The case Of j. j. Dillon, veterinary sur
geOn, against J. II. Ruwe, in which the
plaintiff claimed twenty dollars for doc
toring the defendants horse, was tried
before Justice Molina yesterday, and a
judgment rendered for the defendant.
The evidence showed that last November
Mr.. Ruwe mad a horse that had weak
IOins. caused, as be believed, by Bright's
disease. and that DIR. Dillon thought the
trouble was caused by an injury to the
hip. and said he could cure it. He took
the animal to his stable, and, after treat
ing il short time, pronounced
il cured. Mr.. RuWe claimed that
the animal was not cured, and
refused to pay him and the doctor
would not give up the horse. Mr.. Ruwe
then sued out writ of possession, and
the animal was surrendered, the doctor
paving the costs of the proceedings. he
then brought the suit TO recover for his
services. Justice Molina held that the
controversy had already been adjudicated
in the suit for the possession of the horse.
DIR. Dillon had gone into court in that
proceedings and surrendered possession
Of the animal and paid the costs and had
not claimed to have lien on it for SER
vices rendered. If he was entitled TO re-
cover for services he was Fightfully in
possession of the horse, but having made
no such claim he had waived whatever
right he NAV have had to recover.

CREATED AN ABBOT.

Rev. Oswald S1OosemutIer, of the Bene-
dictine Brotherhood. Chosen Abbot of
St. Mary's Help of Christians Abbey.
Rev. Father Oswald MoOsemuller, of
the Order of st. Benedictine Monks, who
is stationed in this city as pastor of the
Church of the Sacred Heart, and who has
been prominently identified with the
founding Of the monastery on Skid
away island, and also a school
for oolored children on that island
and in Savannah, yesterday re-
ceived a telegram from st. Vincent's
College, Pa, informing him that on
Wednesday the Benedictine monks had
chosen him as Abbot of st. Maryis Help
Of Christians, the abbey situated near
Charlotte, in CASTOR county, n. c. This
is one of the two abbeys recently created
by the Pope, the other being St. Mary's
Abbey at Newark, n. j. A NEWS re-
porter called on Father Oswald Moose
muller at the residence attached to the
Church Of the Sacred Heart
to learn whether the office
would be accepted. The reverend Father
stated that as soon as the message was
handed to him he Immediately wrote a
response declining to accept the station,
that being his privilege. He also
stated that the compliment was wholly
unexpected, and that he was not familiar
with the abbey to which he had been
chosen as the superior, and hence was
not prepared to say whether the institu-
ton was large one or not. An Abbot is
a prelate of high rank in the Roman
Catholic Church, and is styled Right
Reverend.
