Defects in Liquor Case Affidavit.

Among the law-breaking 1iquor-selers who
have given the police the most trouble. is Char
ley Stuckey, formerly bartender for Sim Coy,
but now in business for himself. Last fall he
was arrested twice for illegal selling; once for
fair grounds without license. The Mayor found
him guilty on both charges, and in each case
imposed q work house sentence. The cases were
of course appealed, and when they were called
for trial in the Criminal Court yesterday,
it was discovered that the affidavit in both cases
was faulty, and Prosecutor Mitchell could do
nothing but nolle both cases. The affidavit
charging q sale on election day was written q
blank bearing the date of 1870, and the limita-
ton of prosecution had, of course. according to
the affidavit, expired. In the affidavit alleging
a sale at the fair grounds the words these
This premises" shall be used. The afidavits
were drawn by Frank Wright, prosecutor in the
Mayors court and he claims that the errors
were not made Intentionally. However that
may be, there has been much complaint
from the police about faulty at,
appeared in liquor afidavits. Prosecutor Mitch
ell says that Stuckey shall not escape punish
ment through the faulty afidavits The names
of all the witnesses in the two cases have been
sent to the grand jury, which will be asked to
return indictments against Stuckey.
John Brown and John Enketon both charged
with selling SUNDAY. have fled motions TO
have the afidavits in their cases quashed, and
the motions will be ruled on by Judge Irwin to-
day. The trial of Jacob Henry, before the
court will be concluded to-day. Considerable
interest is manifested in the case, both by
saloon keepers and people who want TO see the
law enforced for the reason that work house
sentence of thirty days was added by the Mayor.
