Ives Out of the Tombs.

Mr.. Henry s. Ives, the ex-fnanc'er, is
out Of the Tombs and Is again in charge
of The sheriff in Ludlow street jail,
thanks TO tho jury that was unabl, to
agree that he had issued 6,000 shares oil
Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton stock
with intent TO defraud. Ten of the dozen
Jurors were of the opinion that this issue
was made with fraudulent intent, but two
business men on the jury held to 1t that
the bad intent was not shown. 1t seems
TO be admitted that no one was deirauded
or lost anything by the issue OF stock.
Ives avs that tor every share OF new
stock issued sh4re OF old stock was can.
celei and that he is the victim Of certain
liars. Perhaps he is. A shrewd fellow
like Ives would hardly bet'ay himself tt
the tender merc.es of such IN as Wood
ruif. But the world can't help thinkir (
that, for an honest man, Ives made none,
sEtully fast.

Of S3, 5000. During the past two years
