LIQUOR GASES IN COURT.
Two ViolAtors OF the sunday Law Con
victed and Two Acquitted.


Two Violators OF the sunday Law Con-
victed and Two Acquitted.
Yesterdays session OF the Superior
Court was taken up with the the trials of
four violators of the Sunday liquor
law. Two of the cases were among those
disposed OF by the Mayor last September.
The true bills found by the grand jury
were each marked ly'misdemeanor."
the ofieose for which the defendants were
indicted was keeping open their respec-
tive baricOlns or tippling houses on Sun
day.
The case against j. d. Monsees was
first called. Monsees keeps a saloon in
the southwestern section of the city. His
name was put on the docket by one of the
city police. The defendant said that his
place was open merely that 1t might be
swept and cleaned out, and he asserted
that he did not Keepit open on SUNDAYS
for the purpose of selling liquor. His
counsel, p. W. Meldrim, Esq, made an
eloquent appeal to the jury, but the jury,
after being out about 80 minutes, returned
a verdict OF guilty. Sentence was sus-
pended.
Mr.. Meldrim was the counsel in the
next ca e. and Solicitor General du Bignon
represented the State. S. S. Miller Uesti-
fec that on two Sundays last year he saw
the front door of A. Seyden's place at
Schuet2en park open. Two colored wit
nesses for the State swore that they
bought liquor Of the defendant on different
Sundays last year. The defense tried to
show that the prosecution on the part Of
Mr.. Miller was malicious. Some testi-
mony was introduced TO show that Miller
not long ago attempted to recover dam
ages from Seyden for shooting one of
his (Mlller's) cows, and the de-
tense put in evidence bill
which it was said Miller or Miller's son
made out against Seyden. W hen the evI-
neuce was finished the counsel Tor the de-
tense waited for the acknowledgment to
begin the argument. The latter claimed
that as the defense had put the paper in
evidence the State was entitled TO the
closing speech, according 10 the rules OF
practice. Judge Adams sustained the
point and the defendants counsel opened
the argument. The jury found the de-
PENDANT guilty. Sentence was also sus-
pended in this case.
In the case against George Derst, the
State failed TO show that the door which
the prosecuting witness saw open led Into
the defendants bar. p. j. O'COnnor
Esq, defended Derst. The jury found a
verdict OF not guilty.
Martin Cooley testified that he does not
allow bis barroom opened on sunday.
The State showed that the door OF tho de-
fendan5s place was open early one sun
day morning. Cooley stated that at the
time the door was said to be open he was
at mass, and that the door was open con-
trary 70 bis order. He was also acquitted,
Cooley was defended by Mr. O'Connor.
There are four misdemeanor cases yet
10 be tried, aud they will be called to-day.
