AN OLD BRACE GAME
Revived i'm the Arraignment of a
Monte Sharper Yesterday

Thomas S. Ryan was arraigned before
Judge KoOn yesterday to answer an indict-
ment found against him. Feb. 20, last year,
charging him with swindling John Canon
out of $500. He pleaded not guilty, and
the case was set for next term. II. b. Brown
and Patrick Sullivan going upon his bond
for 81, 900. The offense charged dates
back TO May 10, 1882. when Ryan, Canon
and John S. Mccarthy were fellow passen-
gers OH Manitoba train between Delano
and Howard Lake. A game of cards was
proposed, monte followed. and in the usual
way and quick time, Canon was euchred
out of $500. Canon came 10 Minneapolis
and put the case in the hands of Detective
Hoy, who soon succeeded i'm laying hands
upon the sharper. The grand jury indicted
them. but they were released on bail. w.
w. Brown of Minneapolis and J. B. Elan
negan Of st. Paul becoming their sureties
to the extent of 500. When the
day of trial came on. they
were missing and Brown and Flanagan
were out their bail money. The case
dropped out of memory of all but the feeced
bondsmen. who went quietly TO work to
capture their man. Two years ago Nc
Carthy got his number" and went beyond
earthly tribunals while at ST. Louis. Ryan
passed out of sight until last week. when
he was located at Danville, ILL.,, where he
was arrested by Detective Corners of St.
Paul. He was quite i'll when captured. but
was brought back to st. Paul and locked
mp for trial, until released on bail yester-
day.

CHEAPER RATES ASSURED
BY the New Telegraph Company
Two Proposals Made.

The important meeting of the North
American Telegraph company will be held
tomorrow afternoon. The committee was
at work yesterday and will thoroughly di-
gest the matters in hand for presentation to
the board tomorrow. Two propositions
are before the committee for Eastern con-
nection, one each from the United Lines
and the Baltimore & Ohio, and it requires
considerable study to decide which one to
accept. \ member said yesterday:
The telegraph business is new to all of
us. and tell you knowledge is necessary
to this business. if to any in the world.
The outcome will be all right and we ex-
pect not only to make money but to become
benefit to the Northwest by reducing
rates. AT present Minneapolis and st.
Paul are entirely at the mercy of the West
em Union, and pay higher telegraphic tolls
than any cities L know of in the Union.
We will end that at once by competition.
and we expect the people to rise up and
call us blessed. Another thing: The peo-
pie seem to have an idea that as soon as we
get in working order. the Western Union
will gobble us up. Well, don't you believe
it. We propose to hang out and hold to
this stock, and we have virtually pledged
ourselves to It,"

improvements and Features of Cars
and Time on the Motor Line.
Eight new coaches for the motor line ar
rived last night and are side-tracked at
Twenty-ninth street. ready for use. They
are each forty-fve feet in length, will con-
tain nearly sixty passengers with comfort,
and have an arrangement of seats that VIII
be a great improvement over the old.
Cherry-tinished and steam-heated, they
will be in keeping with the motor COM
pany's new life. For long time past the
company has found itself unable TO meet
the Increased patronage, and the arrival of
these cars will be a great relief, as they
will at once be put into active service. The
engines yesterday appeared i'm new dress
and present much handSOmer appearance.
BY next Monday the new trial of the
electric motor will be made and the expec-
tatiOn is that no further difficulty will
occur. A governor-valve has been placed
in the Model mill, and if it operates sue
cessfully all trouble will be at an end. as
the motive power has been trebled and
steady current will be assured. AS soon
as arrangements can be made, a new time
schedule will 20 into effect and the public
treated 10 motor train every fifteen min
utes, instead Of half-hourly. as at present.
The electric motor will do duty between
Tenth street and Bridge square, and the
steam-engines over the remainder of the
line. Quarter-hourly trains will be great
improvement and the public will show its
appreciation, just as it did when the half
hour trains went on. An additional feature
and an equal improvement will be smOk-
ing-car with each train and better lights, so
that reading will be not only possible but
pleasant

Is 1T FORGERYl
Complicated Land Litigation, Di-
vOrces, Etc, i'm the District Court.

The suit of Ruth E. Morrison VS.. II. II.
Porter and the Chicago. st. Paul 81 Omaha
Railway Company. which was argued and
submitted before Judge Lochren yesterday,
reveals a curious complication involving
title to a five-acre piece of land in Brooks
out lots, East Minneapolis, worth about
$50 The land was originally owned
by Stephen Cobb. against whom j. II. Nor
rison, the plaintiffs husband, got a judg-
ment in 1859, upon which the land was
sold in February. the year following, and bid
in by the plaintiff. In 1877 Morrison died,
and his widow claims TO have always sup
posed that the land had passed from her
on tax title. In some accidental way her
attention was called to a deed to the land
at the Office of the register of deeds convey
ing it from J. ii. Morrison to j. +.
Cobb, in December, 1860. This deed
Mrs. Morrison claims never to have
signed. and denies that her husband had the
right TO execute il. When the evidence in
the case was taken Wednesday Capt. Tir-
rell and Mr.. Braden were called in as ex-
perts. and after comparing the signature to
the deed with that of Mrs. Morrison's on
another instrument pronounced them TO be
the handwriting of the same person in all
probability. The defendants claim title
both by adverse possession of more than
twenty years and by this deed which Mrs.
Morrison denies signing, by which the land
comes to them through a number of subse-
quent transfers.
The taking of testimony in the divorce
suit of John Nusser VS.. Mary Ann Nusser
consumed the balance Of the day in Judge
Lochren's court.
William Eibel. alias "Scrap Iron Bill"
loomed up yesterday in Judge Lochren's
court as defendant in a suit brought by
the Bank of Luverne to recover on a draft
signed by the Minnesota Scrap Iron CON-
pany for S36T.15. An effort on the part of
the plaintiff was made to show that Free
man p. Lane and ID. B. johnson were
members of the company and therefore re-
spOnsible for the draft. Although a YER
dict against Eibel for the full amount was
returned, the defendants virtually won the
case.
In the action Of A. B. Fall VS.. NJ. Hara
TO recover possession of certain carpets,
verdict for SAL in favor of the plaintiff was
returned.
Eliza T. Wheeler has commenced suit for
divorce from William j., alleging brutal
treatment.

The case of the Sacred Heart merchants
who were tried yesterday and acquitted of

there are hundreds of instances in which.

ONE HUSBAND TOO MANY.
The Emery Case Revived Through
a Startling Allegation.

a Startling Allegation.
Papers were served vest erday in the case
of DIR. G. w. Emery against his wife, in an
action for annulment OF marriage, and the
public will soon be treated to a series of
revelations of whole cemetery of skele-
tons in the closet of the family. The de-
tails of the disagreement between the hus-
band and wife have already been given and
contain distinct allegations of rupture of
marriage vows on each side. The attitude
of the husband, however, is unexpected and
startling, and it is based upon his
assertion of a former husband of Mrs.
Emery, now living i'm Buffalo. from whom
she separated without the fOrmality of a
divorce. Charles Hayden is his name and
the allegation is that he deserted his wife.

Patrick Glaster, the yonng man convicted
of assaulting Officer Jack Leonard, was
yesterday sentenced to pay a fine of $50 by
Judge Koon in the district court Mr..
Mirrick, his attorney, stated to the court
that the motion for new trial had been
waived. He gave the assurance that he had
been authOritively informed that the assault
was not made by Glaster, but by the man
who ran up Sixth avenue and was alluded

considered that his mouth was sealed as to
