A "Reminiscences of Zach Simmons and
John Morrissey-A Romance From
Pittsburg-An Estimate of the As
pinwal Rebel Banditti.

NEW YORK, April 5.-The case in Black
stone in which the bill recited that the
Plaintiff and the defendant had entered into
a partnership to trade with certain gentle
men on Hcunslow Heath for their Watches
purses and other property, and that an ae-
counting of the profits vas de.naa led, was
cite.l by Judge Donohue in \ famous lottery
suit
A midnight or1.r of Judge G. G. Barnard
gran'e i'll 1869, made John Morrissey re-
ceiver of Ben. Woods lottery business, at the
suit Of Zach Simmons. Morrissey sold the
business next day to Zach's brother, w. E.
Simmons. In 1873 Julge Fancher vacated
Barnarls order. Simmo0eS' suit was dis
missed when it came to trial Morrissey had
died. Charley Ransom was surety on his
bond as receiver. Henry Cotton, who had a
mle-twentieth interest in the original busi-
ueas. AID had paid Sac, ,90) for it, brought
suit AGAINST Ransom for $4,000.
Judge DOnohue decided that the court will
not interfere either for or against parties en-
gasei i'll q criminal business.
1T is very clear, on the facts, - he says,
hat the only place of business of these par
tics, AMI the only business carried ON by
them, was in the state of New York, and
that the business carried on was the lottery
business, and policy business connected
with it, and that what Cotton really pur-
chased was an interest in that business. For
more than fifty years this state has deter
minedly sought by constitutional provision,
and by the most severe and stringent laws
absolutely to prevent any such thing as lot
teries within its borders. It would be an an.
omaly that court of this state would grant
to a party in such case any redress or relief
by damages for loss of such a business"
Judge Donohue intimates that the court
might vacate the order in such case, on
the ground that it was due to the majesty of
the law to expunge such proceedings from
the record. But that would do neither party
any good Men in tn, lottery business in
New York can not have the protection OF
the court, or get its help to secure their
plunder, or award them damages because
else has got their pluuder.
