Dispute as to Property.

Michael OConnor bought lots 7 and of George
F.. Adamss subdivision of Albert E. Fletchers
first addition to the city, Barton S. Hayes being
the seller. Previous to this sale it is charged
that Hayes executed mortgage on the lots in
favor OF the Massachusetts Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company. On October 2. 1876 James N.
Mead obtained judgment in the Superior Court
against O'Connor for $275, which, it is claimed,
became lien upon the lots, but on Sept II. in
the year following. the Massachusetts Mutual
Life got decree of foreclosure against Hayes,
OConnor and others, when the com
pany at once entered into possession
of the property. Yesterday Mead filed his COM
plant against the insurance company, alleging,
in addition to the above that defendant still has
possession of the lots and receives all rents and
profits therefrom. 1t is charged that the COM
panys claim under the foreclosure WAS for
$5.94717. Mead says defendant has received
$4,000 since it took the property, from its
rentals and has expended on repairs So 900. He
states that therefore defendant has been fully
paid the amount of its said mortgage. But il
anything is due thereon, plaintiff claims he has
offered to pay it. which offer the insurance COM
papy has refused He asks, therefore, for an
accounting under order of court that the
sum, if any, due defendant may be ascertained,
after deducting net proceeds arising from rents
of said property which defendant has received
He further asks permission to redeem said prop
erty by paying the sum so ascertained in order
to relieve it Of said mortgage

WHAT DEMOCRATS HOPE FOR.
The Saloon Men Must Pay Heavily rFot-
trell's SucceSs-Demand on the Brewers.

The Democrats are making extravagant cal
culations on the campaign fund which they ex-
pect to raise from assessing the saloon keepers
1t is estimated that the total amount will reach
between $50, 900 and $40, 600. 1--WE will demand
800 from each of the saloon-keepers, said a
Democratic politician yesterday, land there are
nearly 400 of them in the city. We
will go to them with the assurance that
this election will forever effectually settle
the question of high license, ard that they can't
afford to be beaten. They will come down with
their cash. We can get $4,000 at least from
among the brewers and wholesale liquor dealers
doing business in this city. Lieber will give
So, 500. and Schmidt and Maus will each
give 81, 800 or So, 900. From these sources we
can get ali the money we can handle, and
we can afford to make a free use
of money in carrying the election.
There are some of the saloon-keepers
who evince disposition to resist the heavy de-
mands upon them and, while in the aggregate a
very large fund will be raised from among them
it will he found that there are a great many who
would rather pay the 800 license than risk the
same sum on the uncertainty of the Democratic
ticket being elected.
