LESSON FOR iNSTALLMENT MEN.
Judge Rogers Tells How They Should
Make Their Demands.

A case which will interest installment
dealers and people who buy goods on the
installment plan was called for trial in
the civil side of the Court of Common
Pleas before Judge Rogers this morning
1t was suit in trover brought by
George Bassett of Boston against Detect
i've Edwin ID. McHenry for the recovery of
the value of diamond stud valued at Sl35,
and "A diamond ring valued at Sl25, which
Bassett, who is diamond dealer, had
sold to McHenry two years ago on the in
stallment plan. Detective McHenry had
also done some professional work for the
plaintiff add claimed that the balance was
on his side of the ledger.
The case was non-suited by Judge
Rogers, who directed the jury TO find a
verdict of not guilty for the defendant, on
the ground that Bassett on his own testi-
mony had not made an absolute demand
for his money or property. On the witness
stand Bassett said that he told the de-
fendant, i want my money or my dia-
monds." This, Judge Rogers said, was
not an absolute demand, but an alterna-
tive one. He should have first demanded
the money and failing TO get that should
have demanded his diamonds. He could
not demand "the money or the diamonds 7"
IN the same breath.
After the verdict had been returned Mr..
Bassett made another formal demand on
McHenry with view to arresting him
again on the same charge, but, as in the
former case, made the same mistake or
which Judge Rogers had but minute
before non-suited.

counties will worry Tammany a good
deal in its struggle TO control the State.
The county Democracy Is the organiza-
tion favored by Hermann Oelrichs, eX-

the Cleveland faction, but as Cleveland
has gone over t. Tammany bodily that
assertion can hardly be repeated now.
