In the District Court.

Yesterday was, as usual, set aside in the
district court for the hearing of motions and
the transaction of other business not requir-
ing the presence and wise aid of the jurymen.
Hugh Thompson was before the court to
receive his sentence for having one wife too
many. The motion for a new trial, based on
the claim that one of the jurymen who con-
victed him was drinking during the trial,
was overruled. The sentence was not form
ally pronounced, but Judge Deemer gave
Thompson the assurance that IL he paid $500
cash into the clerks office on or before next
Saturday, that would be the extent of the
fine, and the Imprisonment would consist of
one day in the county Jail. III the money was
not forthcoming by that day he would make
the sentence one year in the penitentiary.
The attorneys for Thompson assured the
court that the cash would be paid in.
The Jones murder case went over for two
weeks.
One interesting question sprung in court
yesterday was in regard to appeals taken
from justice courts. Ordinarily these APP
peals go right to the district court, but in this
city there is a superior court having concur
rent jurisdiction with the district court in
such matters. In the case brought up yes
terday an appeal had been taken from
Squire Briggs court, and that official took
the transcript to the superior court, claiming
that there were no directions given him to
send it elsewhere. On the other hand,
it was claimed that the attorney taking
the appeal asked him to send it
to the district court. One of
the questions is whether, in case
the parties do not consent to having it go to
the superior court, the justice can summary
take it there, or whether he ought not take
it to the district court. Another question is
as to whether the attorney ought not to see
TO it himself, that the case is sent to the court
which he selects, and whether he ought not
to follow up the case, instead of leaving it to
the Justice wholly. Judge Deemer after hear
ing the conflicting testimony, concluded that
there were some nice points of law involved,
which he would have to consider.
Grant, whose right name is Jack Kane,
was yesterday sentenced to four years for
confdencing a Lafayette county man out of
a few dollars at the transfer. Kane has had
a hard record, and it is thought that a longer
time in the penitentiary would no more than
have evened up justice, although for this sim
gle offense he perhaps gets a full dose.

A very important change has taken place
in the value of this city's paper. A short
time ago it was difficult to dispose of grading
and other Improvement bonds at 80 cents on
the dollar, but they are now selling at par,
and the demand for them is much in excess
of the supply. This result is due to the eff
forts of Mayor Rohrer and the now council,
who determined shortly after entering upon
the duties of their office to change the exist
ing state of affairs in that respect.
The contractors appreciate the change, as
it relieves them of the disagreeable task of
hawking the bonds about for buyers when
ever they wished to turn them into money.
The result will also be felt by the taxpayers,
as the contractors will take city work at
lower figures when bonds sell readily at par
than when they are a drug in the market at
90 per cent.
A similar upward tendency is noticed in
the price paid for city warrants. City en-
ployes who receive their pay in warrants can
now dispose of them for 80 cents, whereas
but "A few months ago they received only so
cents.
This increase in the value of the paper puts
the money in the hands of the men who
earned it. and whose monthly pay is all they
have to live upon, requiring them to sell their
warrants for whatever they can get.
This change for the better is much appre-
ciated by all parties concerned, and it Is
hoped will continue.

Col. katns' Annual Report on the Work
Of Rcclai inning the Flats.

COL Peter c. Hams. in his annual report 10 the
Chief OF Engineers, says that the work thus far
done on the Potomac fats has greatly Improved
the condition OF the river front The portion of
the fats known as section l. lying between the
sewer canal aud Easby's Point, he says, Is In the
same condition as IT was two years AGO, as no
work has been done on IL within that time, owing
10 the acts OF Congress OF August, 1856. This is
the property the tile to which is now In dispute,
aud Col Hams says that It Is believed that the
claims OF title TO the property adverse TO the
United states can be maintained; but whether
they can or NOT, It is OF the utmost importance
that The money thus far expended on this I'm
proyenlent should not DC thrown away. An EN-.
oInkInent aions the outer margin OF the Hats ana
along the banks OF the sewer canal would accom-
pltSh the purpose without adding materially 10
the value OF the portions In dispute, except what
would naturally arise from the fact that IL would
De protected On section - that portion OF the
hats between the sewer canal and Long bridge,
some Milling was done under the contract with
Jao ID. Mckee. The fats adjoining the causeway
OF the bridge were raised 10 the height OF the
bridge, about 9 feet above mean low tide.
THE TIDAL RESERVOIR.
The foundations for the outlet OF the tidal reser
voir have been completed. During the year there
have been excavafed from the river bed and de-
posted on the flats i, 1872 1I2 cubic yards Of ma
terial, making the total thus far deposited 63O6-
ITO ards. More than half the work has been ac-
conplished AZ total eXpendi ure OF 81 247, 4949O
less than half the estimated cost. The total area
reclaimed from overflow at ordinary high tide Is
144 acres. The channels OF the river have been
widened 10 500 feet and deepened 20 feet at low
tide. Attention is invited TO the urgent necessity
OF retaining wall at the foot OF l7th street,
which, IL Is estimated, would cost $20S, OOO
AMOUNT REQUIRED.
The report states that 81 "A ;S65 will be neces-
sary TO complete the fats Improvement, and an
appropriation OF $500, 900 is recommended for the
fiscal year, ending June 30. 1880.
