IN ACCOUNT WITH JUSTICE.
a Morning in the Police Court With
JudEe Bradstreet.


Judge Bradstreet.
James Byers and John Hogan, who
have formed the acquaintance of the
Waterbury police court before, were up
to-day on their same old complaint,
drunkenness. Five dollars and costs
each was the sentence.
Fred Needham and Jacob Senele be-
came involved in dispute Ia Sullivan
IL few days ago in Borchardt & Bartzs
there was an interesting battle. When
the smoke of the contest had cleared
away it was found that Sengel had been
worsted, and this mornign he looked as
II he had faced gatling gun. Both
were arrested for fighting and fined 81
and costs each.
DISTRICT COURT DECISIONS.
Judge Bradstreet rendered the follow
ing judgments this morning in the dis
trict court
In the case of T. F. Mcdonald VS. Luke
Bowen, an action to recover for money
due, plaintiff to recover $S12 with costs.
John McGrath VS. Patrick Thompson,
an action for trespass, Judgment for
plaintiff to recover $40 with costs.
THE SUPERIOR COURT.
One more judge declines to hold court
in Waterbury and his reasons are similar
to those given by Judges Sanford and
Fem. Judge Hall came up from
ing and opened the civil term of the
superior court at 80. He prefaced the
opening with the remarks that he would
hold court in Waterbury only to hear a
few short cases to-day. He was dis
gusted with the accommodations of the
superior court here, and was not at all
surprised, at the action of the other
judges who were here. Some Of the at
torneys asked for the hearing of differ
ent cases, but with a few exceptions
Judge Hall declined. He would, how.
ever, consent to adjourning to New Ha-
ven. He said that if Waterbury could
not afford better rooms, in all proba-
bility the superior court privileges
would be transferred elsewhere. A
laugh was raised when Judge Cowell
proposed adjourning to the police court
room to hold court. There are several
csSes on the docket which call for a
large number Of witnesses and the CON
testants can ill afford the expense of
going to New Haven. If they wish to
try their cases, however, they must
abide by the decision Of the judges in
the matter.
A me, lion by Attorney Terry to have
the trustee on the estate of Jared War
ner, dec eased, make distribution of the
property to the heirs, was granted.
The case of the Waterbury Savings
bank VS. the Matthews & Willard com
pany was argued this afternoon. This
was an application to place a note for
81, $50 given by Mrs H. A. Matthews
and endorsed by A. G. Peck, among the
liabilities of the concern. The appi-
cation was allowed and the plaintiffs
given until Saturday to prove the valid
ity of the claim.
At o'clock court was adjourned until
y o'clock tomorrow morning at New
Haven

ADJUSTMENTS.
ssThe silent Partner >,


Some new possibilities of the Edison
monograph are humorously set forth in
"The Silent Partner" The monograph
records an old love letter which the
hero inadvertently reads near it, and re-
peats the letter in the presence of the
young mans aff1anced, with disastrous
results. The love scene over the phono-
graph creates roar of laughter. The
monograph aids to unmask the william
of the play as well. At the opera house
this evening.
The Germans
Manager Stetson threw open the doors
of his handsome Globe theatre for
another season last night and as MANY
people crowded in as the house could
contain. Germans elite MINISTRIES was
the attraction and the Germans have
proved the fallacy of the popular super
stition that nothing can be new in min
strelsy. They gave an entertainment
that is characterized by novelty and
unique DISQUALIFICATION Globe. AT

"Daniel Boone,
Peck and Fursman's "Danile Boone"
company will be at the Jacques opera
house, Friday evening May 8. A car of
special scenery. five trained horses,

solo orchestra are features of merit. A
street parade at noon, will introduce all

IrwIn's Circus.
Irwin Brothers one ring tent show is
always a favorite in Waterbury and as
was to be expected there was an i'm

Because the price of admission is low it
does not follow that it is cheap show.
On the contrary it is an exhibition OF

WHY MISS ROONEY WON.

Meriden Sent Fifteen Hundred Votes
to Danburv.
Speaking of the necklace CONTEXT in
which Danbury came in ahead, the
Meriden Journal says that certain Meri-
den men sent 1 500 votes to help out the
Danbury girl, jealousy being the cause
of their action. Yesterday the commit
tee of the Manning & Bowman shop,
who worked for Miss Brainard sent the
following dispatch to Miss Rooney of
Danbury please accept our hearty
congratulations ON your success in win
ming the locket." This one, similarly
signed, was sent to Miss Kelly: "We
mourn with yOu."

CRAZY BEYOND A DOUBT.

Flanagan Happy and Contented in
His Prison Cell.
Coroner Mix said to a representative
of the DEMOCRAT to-day that after a
thorough investigation of the Waterbury
murder case, he has become convinced
that the murderer, Flanagan, is crazy.
The coroner can find no possible mo-
tive for the murder. The men had never
been anything but the best of friends
aud the coroner is satisfied that Flanna-
gan is crazy and has been in that condi-
ton for long time.
The officials at the Jail say the MUIR
derer is apparently as happy as a lark.
He spends his time whistling and sing
ing.

A Belief Tint the Masons VIII Win
Their Fight
NEW HAVEN, May 6.-The strike cpl
demic has struck this city in a mixed
form. The masons strike is unchanged
to-day. This morning the strikers held
meeting in Clan ma Gael hall, at
which committees were appointed,
though for what purpose is unknown.
The meeting was secret and it is not
known what action was taken. 1t is
said they are making an effort to induce
the plasterers to join in the strike be-
lieving if they would the masons will
win their strike. As long as the bosses
do not get non-union men to take the
places of the strikers matters will go
along quietly. 1t is believed, however.
that if the strike lasts a week or two
longer the bosses will be compelled to
secure outside men.

Novel Defense In a Liquor Case.

ANOV0I OV1eHS0 III u LIQUOr NAB0.
The case of the state vs. w. l.. Horn OF
Wallingford will be tried either to- day
or tomorrow in the court of common
pleas, criminal side. The state charges
that Horn has sold liquor without a
license. Horn has a United States
license and his counsel, Attorney Henry
F. Hall, will raise the novel point that
the accused has a right to sell liquor in
original packages under his United
States license and without a local
license. Mr. Hall will cite a recent de-
cision of the United States supreme
court which holds that goods may be
shipped in original packages even into a
prohibition state.

Ro.ton Boot and Shoe Trade.

BOBfOn BOOT anu SllDc
The Boston Post. at the close of the week,
comments thus on the state of trade: There are
large number of buyers of boots and shoes on the
market, and they are placing some good size con-
tracts with manufacturers. Indeed, the bust
ness consumated SO far has been satisfactory,
and there is little reason to complain. Women 8
goods are doing better than mems wear, ana
more case orders have been placed for the for
mer than for the latter. There is no f9rthe e
change in prices. Jobbers are trying to get bet
ter terms shoes, but manufacture are hrIn
and will not at present listen 10 any cohces-
sions. The reports from the West are, II any
thing, more favorable, and heavy goods are
likely to be cleaned up more closely than was at
at first supposed. The factories are kept fairly
busy, and there are satisfactory number OF .du-
plicate orders for spring goods being received
THE HIDE MARKET.
There have been no arrivals of foreign hides at
this port for week past, but there are consider
able quantities now overdue here. There is not
much doing in foreign stock, and the sales of the

clined to grant concessions. MonteVldeo ana
Buenos Ayres are held at 1870. For domestic
hides there is some inquiry. western pun are
held firm, and holders will not shade 5l2c for
Cleveland stock; &c is about the lowest price ac-
teptable from Ohio points. In seconds and Bs
there have been sales at 4Q4hc New England
at sc and cow at 3G3Isc. For calfsklns there Is q
steady feeling under heavier arrivals.
INDIA RUBBER.
The demand for rubber has not been very ac-
tive and the sales are small, but prices are firm,

64065c. The receipts have been light, and the
