DISTRICT COURT BRIEFS.

The case of Ellen s. BiSbee against
William Ii. Barber, an action to recover
the balance of real estate deal on
some lots in Rochester, was tried by
Judge Smith, and verdict rendered for
the plaintiff for the amount claimed,
minus $50, which it was adjudged was
III excess of just demand. The de-
PENDANT showed that the lots were not
worth the price charged.
Leon ChuntZ married Eliza NJ Chuntz
in Louisiana when he was but seven
teen years of age and she had attained
the age of twenty-siX. They lived to-
gether until 1878, when he claims she
deserted him, and he wants q divorce.
An order extending the chance to an
swer has been fled.
David S. White is suing the White
EXcavating Machine company to COM
pei the specific performance of a con-
tract. He claims that the company
agreed TO make over to him forty-eight
shares of the stock of the concern, an
agreement which it has failed to carry
out.
The Stlnson Smith will case still
holds the boards before Judge Hooker,
and Will likely take the balance of the
week IN the trial. The defense is not
nesses, and the trial is dull, with the
exception of occasional bits OF lively
testimony.
II. Perry has entered suit against
Charles Hamilton to collect $3.50 for
services rendered, covering a period of
fifty-flve weeks. An attachment has
been issued against Hamilton.
The two boys that were to be sent to

NI'KINNEY IN HOOK.
Katie Sullivan Is Prosecuting Him
for Seduction.

for Seduction.
"Wo man! woman! lovely woman!
you're worse than a besetting SIM"
That is the wall Of Charles Mckinney,
or would be if he only had an Opportun-
ity to wall. But he is cooped up in a
small cell down in the lookup and no
one would hear HIM wall, should he un.
dertake such a desperate undertaking.
And, in truth, women have gone against
Mckinney.
1t will be remembered that few
weeks ago one Charles Mckinney and
Katie Sullivan, q girl of seventeen, were
arrested out Oil Fourth avenue south.
They were living together as man and
wife, and when they found themselves
under the @gis of the law they insisted
that they were married. Mckinney
even produced marriage certificate to
prove it. When brought into court the
certificate proved to be forgery, and
Mckinney received a sentence of ninety
days in the wOrkhOuse for fornication.
A genuine wife, whom Mckinney left
IN Wisconsin. also turned up, and when
Charles went to Single Greek she and
Katie divided up the household goods.
Yesterday Mckinney was brought
back from the wOrkhOuse and arraigned
before Judge Emery on new charge,
that of seduction. The complainant in
the case is Katie Sullivan. the girl with
whom he was living when first arrested,
and to whom he claimed to have been
married. Katie's parents have probably
instlgated the prosecution, as they were
very wroth when they found how Nc
Kinney had played their daughter false.
Mckinney pleaded not guilty, and his
case was continued until this morning,
bail being fixed at $500. In this. his sec
ond misfortune in Minneapolis, Nc
Kinney is forced to fall back upon his
first wife, the one whom he deserted.
After being locked up he sent for her.
and besought her to get him a lawyer.
Womanlike, she forgot his past mis-
deeds and is doing what she can to help
him.

Judge Lochren Gives a Unique
Charge in the Smith Suit.
The damage suit Of Webb La Grave
against Otto Smith, the result of the
accidental shooting which occurred
some time ago in the gun store of Law
renee Smith, ON First avenue south,
went to the jury yesterday morning.
Judge LOchren, in his charge to the
jury, instructed that verdict be re-
turned for the plaintiff. the jury only
having to determine the amount Of
compensatory damages that should be
allowed. He made special point to
the effect that the swapping of a reVOl
Yer in the face of a companion was in
Itself an evident act of careIessness,
and that the simple fact that the man
didn't know it was loaded" didn't de-
tract from the negligence. A man
should take special pains to examine
into the condition of a tirearm before
there was any fooling with it. The
fact that the plaintiff knew that cart
ridge had been in the chamber did not
ex0nerate the perpetratOr of the deed.
The jury found some trouble in de-
Gliding on the amount of damages, and
remained out hour after hour in noisy
elaboration.

STILL WEARS STRIPES.
Money Loaner Adamson Has Not
Yet Been Pardoned.


A morning paper yesterday stated
that Gov. Merriam had pardoned the
notorious w. III. Adamson, who is now
serving sentence of eighteen months
in the Saltwater penitentiary for
forgery. Diligent investigation does
not produce any tangible foundation
for the report. Miss Viola Heath, who
has been taking care of Adamson's bus
mess since his incarceration, denies
any knowledge of it whatever, and
she believes that she would have
heard something about it if Adamson
had been. or were about to be, par
doned. Nor have Merrick q Merrick,
AdamSOn'S attorneys, any knowl-
edge of it whatever. They have
telegraphed to Saltwater and find that
nothing has been done. 1t is true that
petitions have been circulated, one in
July and one in August, the two con-
tanning some 500 signatures. Merrick
u Merrick did nothing in the matter
aside from forwarding the first petition
to the governor. Although it is possible
that the governor may intend to heed
the petition and grant the pardon,
nothing has been done as yet, as far as
can be learned. and the assertion that
Adamson seeks to 'arrange" some mat
tiers before coming to the city is stoutly
denied.

Off His Beat.

The police commission met yesterday
morning to consider business laid over
from Monday. About all it did was
to consider the case of Patrolman r. A.
Plummer, of the Fifth precinct. who is
accused by his superiors of neglect of
duty. Officer Plummer was absent
from his beat last Saturday morning be-
tween the hours of l and o'clock. His
beat includes the Thirty-sixth street
motor junction, one of the most impor-
tant beats of the precinct Sunday MORN
ing, especially about midnight. Plum
mer says he was sick, but Lieut.. Coffin
says he sat around the stove at the sta
ton and smoked from l to 8 O'clock.
The commissions decision was re-
S erved until Monday.

There are now Al patients in the city
hospital, and 90 city charges at Bethany

The old matter of securing reimburse
ment for the care of Annie Edmunds,
who was injured by street car, and
who received $1,000 from the street rail-
way company in settlement, was left in
the hands of the city attorney for fur
Their action. The girls attorney, it is
stated, gave her $500 and retained $500.

he has conducted the poor department.

A Practical Suggestion.

Merriam Park citizen has hit upon a
scheme which he thinks will obvlate any dis
elimination as between Minneapolis and st.
Paul being shown to patrons of the interur-
ban electric line living at the parks. 1t is
that the company sell to actual residents lit
tie books of double tickets such as were
used on the old motor. These
could be sold in blocks OF twenty at 81 a
block. The two coupons could be torn off.
one when the passenger entered the car and
the other when the second fare collection
was made. This would probably obviate all
the difficulties which now embarrass the

quires us TO make the trip from st. Paul to
Minneapolis in thirty minutes. The time
varies, however. l knew that the Great
Northern train was due at the University
depot at 8:35. do not know the exact time
when the accident occurred. 1t was S:l3
when we started, aid the engineer made the
remark that if we didn't have any bad luck
we could make up the time before We came
to Minneapolis. 1 do not remember when
the engine bell began to ring. l do not re-
member hearing it until l heard the air
brakes and heard the whistle. We ran
train length after we struck the people. The
ordinance says that trains may not run more
than six miles an hour over crossings, but all
the trains running between Minneapolis ana
st. Paul run faster than that Twenty-Five
miles an hour is usual rate of speed. If
we had gone six miles All hour we would
probably have not killed those people.
