BEFORE THE SUPERIOR COURT
Waterbury Cases Argued Yesterday
in New Haven.

IN Now hhVens
Before Judge Hall in the superior
court at New Haven, Yesterday the case
of Sarah NJ. Camp vs. Edwin A. Camp
was argued on a motion for the produc-
ton of books and for disclosure of
effects. Mr. Camp alleges that Laura E.
Pearsall alienated her husbands affec-
tions, and that in consequence of this
he transferred to Mrs Pearsall about
SAC, 900 worth of real estate. Mrs Pear
sail claims that Camp appropriated a
large amount of her money and only
paid her back when he transferred the
real estate. This Mrs Camp wished to
have proved by the production of the
books used in the business. She asked
the court to have the real estate brought
back into Camps control that she may
be able to secure alimony on it in her
suit for divorce. Judge Hall reserved
his decision on the motion.
The case of Nathaniel Sleeman VS. the
National Gas Saving company of An
sonia came up on a motion by the
plaintiff to have Greene Kendrick, for
merly of this city, and the Union Ma
tional Gas company of New York made
parties to the defense and summoned
into court. An order to this effect was
granted. Sleeman was formerly a very
wealthy man and is a minority stock.
holder in the National Gas Saving COM
pany of Ansonia. He alleges that he
has been frozen out by the other stock
holders and he has received no portion
of the royalties which were received on
the gas saving machines. He now
wants the other defendants to appear
and show what was done with the
money from these royalties.
Mary A. Phelps Of this city was
granted divorce from Henry d. Phelps
Of Ansonia, on the grounds of habitual
intemperance. The parties were married
in November, 1873. Plaintiffs name
changed to Mary A. Sloan.

POLICE COURT

Frank G. Cummings Found Not
Guilty of Fraud.
Judge Cowell rendered his decision in
the Frank G. Cummings case this morn
ing. hnding the accused not guilty. In
giving his decision Judge Coweil said
that the fact that Cummings had taken
out three years lease of the store on
South Main street, and the guarantee
given with each watch with the promise
to refund the money if the watch was
not satisfactory, were the strongest
points on which he found the accused
not guilty.

The oyster Question.

TAG Baltimore San Of yester-
day discusses question of the
greatest Importance TO the tax pay
ers Of this State aud more especial
ly to the tide water counties OF
Maryland-"the oyster question
aud taxation, from which we
take the following extract: " The
subject OF the proper protection OF
the oyster beds and the oyster IN
dustries of the State will undoutt
ely bs strongly presse upon The
attention of the next Legislature.
l. is one that concerns the whole
Safe, not simply the dwellers In
the bay-side counties. The people
OF Garrett aud Allegany are equal
ly interested in the preservation OF
this ''rich heritage" as Professor
Martin justly calls it. But to sc-
complish any practical or beneficial
results-to secure any valuable or
useful legislation-men must be
sent to the Legislature capable of
handling the question, with knowl-
lge and judgment, or recognizing
the causes of the present trouble
9 I'd applying wisely and firmly the
necessary remedy. Like the tax
question, 1t is a subject which calls
for the qualities of the statesman,

ness seem to imagine, merely u
question of new assessment law.
bat Of a good assessment law; not of
a new oyster law, but of good oys
ter law; not any sort of, legislation
upon these important questions
which the Governor is to sign as q
matter of course, but careful,
thoughtful and wise legislation,
such as will command the approval
of the intelligent people Of the s. ate.
And whether or not we can hope for
such legislation is question to be
decided virtually by the people
themselves AZ tie polls-uot IN an
nary, February or March, after the
Legislature has assembled, but 10
November, when the people make
choice OF the men who are TO e. 10
the Legislature and who are to deal
with these important matters. Ia
this sense the oyster question be-
comes a political question, but not
in party sense. As Professor
Martin said in the address already
quoted from "you cannot get the
oyster out of politics, and it won d
not be right TO do it if you could.
Tue only thing necessary is to maxi
your politics as good as your oys-
ters.'

But Notwithstanding this and the fact that

to the floor, and whole squares of the side

It was q most wonderful illustration OF

"Antonio Fusco was arrested at Euslcy
City last evening, brought to Birmingham,
bound over by Commissioner Hunter in
the sum of 81 900, and in default Of bond,

The charge against Fusco is that Of ap-

contend that several months ago, while
Fusco was foreman of a gang of Italians
at Big Stone Gap, Va, he, by false repre-

one Of the gang under Fusco.

THEITATA'S CARGO.
No Absolute Necessity for the Surrender OF
Any OF the Arms to Admiral Mccain.

WASHINGTON, June ll.-Nothing is
known in Official circle here Of the report
ed secreting of arms by the Itata before
her surrender to Admiral Mccain. 1t is
assumed from Admiral McCaAn's reports
to the Navy Department that the nsur-
gents have been acting in good faith
throughout, but in any event the arms and
Ammunition will cut smaller figure in
the legal proceedings than was at first
supposed, and, even If some Of them have
been landed in Chill, it is doubtful it
this GOVERNMENT has reason to complain.
The libel against the ltata rests entirely
upon her record while in United States
waters and in the hsrbor Of San Diego.
1t is charged that while in that harbor
she did or was about to do certain acts in
violation of the neutrality laws.
According to the advices already re-
ceived, the arms she carried were not
taken 1T San Diego or in United States
waters, and therefore she might have
landed them in Chill without complaint,
SO far as the present libel is concerned.
The fact that she took arms aboard at sea
might be Of Importance during the trial
as evidence tending ts sustain the neu-
trality laws but oral evidence on that
point would be quite rs effective as the
production Of the arms in court.
So it appears that there was no absolute
nccessityafor the surrender Of any OF the
arms to Admiral Mccain. 1t is possible
that the testimony may show that they
were transferred from the Robert and
Minnie to the Itata within three miles OF
San Clcmentc Island, in which case it
must be held that the transfer took place
in United States water even though the
island is many miles distant from the
California coast But ii this should be SO,
it would have to form the subject OF new
libel against the vessel, and could not be
included in the original charge.
