TEax COURT RECORD.

Superior Court - Civil Side Judge
 Fenn.
 The shit of J. 0. Thompson, who sued the Beacon Valley Rubber company for having him arrested upon charge of embezzlement, came to an end in the Superior court yester- day. The jury deliberatsd for two hours on Tuesday and for another hour yesterday morning, when they returned a verdict for the defendant to recover ceste. Attorney Hamilton for the plaintiff gave notice of ap- peal to the Supreme court. Thompson when arrested kept rubber and bicycle store on Orange street. He had previously sold goods for the Beacon Valley company on commis- sion. About this time he failed and turned his assets over to trustee. The defendants in this latter case claimed that Thompson should have sent back to them all the goods that he did not sell which they had sent him and pay for all he had sold and that they should not be treated as ordinary creditors because these goods were sent to be sold on commission, so they took council and had Thompson arrested for embezzlement, but could not prove it. .x
 A Suit for Interest on $35 1000. Judge Fenn yesterday heard a continua- ton of the arguments in the short calendar
 
 to make Wilson Waddingham pay the inter- est on $35, 900 in notes owed her by the late Edward L. Kimberly. For MT. Wadding- ham Attorney Bush submitted demurrer, denying any agreement to do so.

derful chalk Mir. Bryan interests children and it was hoped he would speak to them in the afternoon, but he will not reach the citY in season to do so. But he also entrances and delights older and wiser people than the chil- dren. Walter Thomas Mills, author of 'sThe Science of Politics." says: "Never was chalk so interesting, so instructive and withal so amusing as was that talking chalk in the hands of Rollo Kirk Bryan at the Cleveland convention" With great expanse of drawing paper up on strongly constructed easel he draws with ! both hands while he lectures, using four col ors of chalk. President A. M. Housen of the Northern Illinois college says: "Our citizens l have been held spellbound for three evenings | by his wonderful delineations and powerful representations"
 Hon. M v. B. Bennett, of Kansas, speaks thus: "He is the grandest chaIk-talker of the age and best of all is pure, true, clean, noble | man." And Mrs. Mary T. Lathrop, of the national w. c. T. U., says: "God made Rollo Kirk Bryan an artist, and he brings to the | temperance reform these gifts divinely given. He is a wonder-worker with his chalk and an evening before his stangely constructed easel | is delight"
 l DOWN AT BELLE DOCK. Coal Vessels ArrIv1ng-The Ice's De- ! parture-The BEg MOgul Locomotives | Big ApPeGItes.
 I Three-masted schooners begin to make their appearance again at Belle dock and vicinity, the ice embargo being over. Much
 coal is arriving, the larger part of which is
 'soft coal' for the big moguls and other lesser engines of the Consolidated railroad. There are 15, ,o00 tons of coal in the man. moth coal pile at Belle dock. This is the
 amount steadily kept on hand or which it is | intended to keep on hand at Belle dock. The big mogul locomotives are f'great eaters." I! takes four tons of coal to feed one of these for the round trip from New Haven to Hart
 ford and back. A train going to Springfield and back generally has to take in more coa
 at either Hartford or Springfield, to keep the
 locomotives in good pulling order.
 | The ice in the harbor broke up several days ago, but the harbor still has abundance o1
 big patches of floating ice in it daily. The ice on the harbor was about six inches thick from Belle dock outward for a distance o1 two or three miles; and was so thick as to
 cause serious Instructions to the turning
 about of the big steamers at Steamboat dock
 In the slips, where the tugboats showed the
 ice about, it lays in layers, one over the
 other, and is now three feet thick in places
 Here the ice will tsrry until well into the \ spring.

1t is very probable that new patent
on stock cars will be introduced on the
c., r / & p. and C., NJ. & st. P. roads.
The invention is intended to do away
witt the necessity of unloading cars for
the watering and feeding of stock in
transit. An open funnel protrudes
through the roof of each car, connected
by iron pipes, So that at water tank the
hose turns stream directly into the
canvass tronghs, elevated about three
feet from the floor and running along the
sides of the car When not in use the
troughs are folded by an iron rod against
the side of the car, and are out of the
way. A similar arrangement is opened
when the hay station is reached. There
IS rack into which the fodder is put
When not in use the rack may be folded
along side of the Car, or turned up
against the roof out of the way. The
trough and rack are so cohtrived that but
a moment is required to put the appara-
tus in working order or to shut them
back out of the way. 1t is a simple
scheme, and it is a wonder that it wasn't
thought of long ago.

Well Known and Aged German in
Moline.
Mr.. Job George Fromm, an aged and
well known German of Moline, suicided
this morning by means of razor. with
which he inflicted a horrible cash in the
throat, cutting it from ear to ear, and Sc
frightfully deep as to penetrate through
the windpipe and to almost sever the
head from the body. The self murderer
fingered a short time after committing
the desperate deed, and when DR.. Sloan
arrived ten minutes after the occurrence,
the suicide was still clutching his throat
and gasping for breath, but soon expired
from loss of blood and exhaustion.
The suicide was seventy eight years of
age and lived with his only immediate
relative In this vicinity, his son. Jacob
Fromm, at the corner of Twelfth avenue
and Eighth street, Moline. He had other
children living elsewhere. He had been
in failing health for some time and de-
spondency, the result of this, was the
supposed cause of the tragic act
Coroner Halves went up and held an
inquest, and the verdict of the Jury was
that deceased came to his death by his
own hand.
