TnE EMMoNs CASE.
There is more in the Emmons case than
appeared upon the surface in The BEES re-
port this morning. 1t now seems that the err
ratio editor brought the trouble upon MN,
self by his hasty actions. Ohcer Mltchell
trying to dispense a crowd of loafers who
were obstructlng the street 50 that ladies'
could not pass, when Editor
came along with his cards bearing Cleve-
yertisment of the State Democrat on the
other, distributing them promiscuously
among the crowd and scattering them along
the street. AS this is said to be contrary to
an ordinance of the city the officer objected
to it, and requested him to deslst, as he
wished to clear the walk 80 that ladies
| could pass. The editor took umbrage at the
| order and hot words passed back and forth,
resulting in his arrest. When taken to the
''cooler'' Mr.. Emmons resisted the officer
and assistance was called and he was
roughly handled. but was put under lock and
key for a short time. Finally, however, he
was released on his W recognizance to ap-
pear before the police court tomorrow morn

Opinions differ widely as to where the
| blame lies in this matter. m is gen
orally regarded as a good citizen ana a
quiet, inoffensive gentleman, ofiSer
he has his friends. The public, per
haps, is with the editor in his
trouble, but the facts will be known to-mor.
row-at least statements will be made under
oath. The theory that the game was played
for political effect has exploded. 1t IS now
known that the arrest was not connived, and
that it was the result of an attempt to dis
perse a crowd that was standing on the
streets talking politics.
STATE INSTITUTIONS.
The board of public lands and buildings
held an adjourned session this morning.
Nothing, however, of any great Importance
came up for consideration. Yesterday after
noon the reports Of the various state institu'
but as they were SO modest and just the
newspaper paragrapher has no chance to
chronicle steals or jobbery. The state insti
buttons seem to be in a tiourishing condition,
Convicts increase at the pen. The hospital
for the insane holds its own. During the
past month DR.. Knapp reports two deaths
and fifteen discharged. But the same report
attests that seventeen patients have been re
ceived, making the total number of inmates
339, the same number under treatment at the
beginning of the month.
