STRIKERS IN COURT,
Charged With Having Disobeyed the
Injunction Against Them.
OF s1o0 ASPAID BY ONE.
The Case Of Deputy Constable Hoffman
Postponed a Week.
YESTERDAY IN THE COUNTY COURTS

deputy Constable Hoffman, of Braddock,
was brought into courttyesterday on an at
tachment for contempt of court issued by
Judge Ewing. Hoffman was included in
the injunction issued by the Court some
time ago against the strikers at the Brad
dock Wire Works. About three weeks ago,
1t was charged, he disobeyed the injunction
and took part in several disturbances.
On one occasion, during some trouble be-
tween some workmen and the strikers, it
is alleged, he arrested the workmen, who
were the innocent parties, and refused to
even protect them against the strikers when
he had them under arrest On petition to
court Judge Ewing issued an attachment for
Hoffman at the time, but he was not ar
rested until yesterday.
Judge Ewing heard a portion of the testi-
mony yesterday concerning Hoffman's con-
duct when he arrested the .workmen. He
then allowed him to go until next Saturday
in order for Hoffman to bring in witnesses
in his own behalf
In the case of Frank Stenneweg, one of
the strikers who had been committed to Jail
in default of paying fine of $500 for con-
tempt of court in disobeying the injunction,
Judge Ewing reduced the fine to 500.
Stenneweg paid the fine and was released
from Jail on giving bond in the sum of
$500 to insure his future obedience of the
Injunction,

SIX NEW PETITIONS
For Rehearings in the Cases of Disap-

For Rehearings in the Cases of Disap-
pointed Liquor License Aspirants.
Attorney c. F. McKenna, yesterday pre-
sented further petitions for license applica-
tion rehearings to Judge White, SO as to
get more cases before the Supreme Court.
They were those of William Walter,
Homestead; G. Seyerle, Sixth ward, Pitts
burg; j. B. Nelson, CHARTERS; Patrick s.
MeGovern, .lBraddock; John Luchsinger,
North Versailles, and August F. Muller,
Seventeenth ward, Pittsburg. Attorney
J. Z. Duff, presented the petition of Mar
tin Haller, of the Eleventh ward, this city.
A rather amusing colloquy was heard
from some German petitioners in the lobby
after Mr.. McKenna had presented the petit
tions. Judge White in taking the papers
said he would give them careful attention, as
he always wanted to be on the right side
with the lawyers when it was possible.
Some of the interested overheard and mis-
understood the remark, and gained great
comfort from their misapprehension. Said
one: "Judge White says he is with us and
what more do we want? It's all right"
This was given in rich German accent, and
all went away satisfied, reasoning: eff
Judge White be with us, who can be
against uS?''

GOOD DAY FOR DIVORCES.
The Long List of People Who Have Tired
of the Old Harness.

The Long List of People Who Have Tired
of the Old Harness.
Subpenas in divorce were granted yester.
day as follows: John Fitzpatrick VS. Vernie
Fitzpatrick; Margaret Stewart vs. Dudley G.
Stewart; Elizabeth J. Richards VS. James
Richards; Frederick j. Force VS. Henrietta
E. Force; Elizabeth NJ White VS. Charles A.
White, and E. G.. Mcpherson vs. John Nc
Pherson. The grounds on which divorce is
asked in each case are the common ones of
abuse and desertion.
A decree of divorce was granted Elizabeth
j. Creese from A. II. Creese, and one re-
fused in the case of Aaron Henry against
Rachel Henry. The latter couple are He
brews and were married in New York in
1879. They came to Pittsburg, where the
husband, who is peddler, set up house.
On several occasions when he returned from
his trips he found the house deserted and
his wife gone back to- New York. Each
time he induced her to return. Only testi-
mony on the side of the libellant was filed
by the master in the case. Judge Ewing
refused the petition and put the costs on the
libellant, saying the testimony was illegal
and that there was evidence of collusion.
A petition was filed by L. e. Love asking
that a rule be made by the Court allowing
her support pending the litigation in her
suit against NJ. d. Love.

IN COURT FOR SEINE FISHING.
Two Suckers Enough TO Cause a Grea
Deal of Trouble.

Two Suckers Enough TO Cause a Great
Deal of Trouble.
A hearing was commenced before Judge
Magee yesterday, on the appeal of George
H. Grady, of Sewickley, from the judgment
of an alderman who fined him for violation
of the fish law, on information of Fish
Warden Hague. Fish Warden Hague tes-
tifedto having made the information and
that he had knowledge for two years of vio-
lations of the fish laws near Sewickley.
He found a seine belonging to Grady lying
on the bank drying. He took the seine and
told Grady that he was going to destroy it.
After reading the law on the subject to
Grady, the latter permitted him to take the
seine away. He asked Grady if he had not
been fishing, and he did not deny it.
George Little and w. Jolts testified to
having seen Grady fishing with seine last
February, and he caught two suckers At
this point Judge Magee continued the case
until next week.
