Of the circuit court of this cOuntyrendered u
very important decision this morning based
on the dramShop act of 1889. The case is
an injunction restraining Il salOon-keeper
from conducting dramshop business. The
county and city licenses of the saloon
keeper were declared void Oh several
grounds, among which are the failure to
secure petition for the issuance of Il Ii
cense signed by 4 majority of the citizens
living in the block in which the saloon is
located, the failure TO indemnify the city
and county against Sunday opening, selling
TO habitual drunkardS and permitting gam
bling and music IL the saloons. because the
amount of the bond was left blank,
whereas the statute requires it to be 5000
and the failure to incorporate in it the bond
provision in the latter part of section 4j14
of the Revised Statutes.
The case has been appealed. If the de-
cision should be sustained by the appellate
courts every saloon in this city Will be af-
fected and every saloon license Is Ssiit -

Detectives Who Secured the Evidences Ar
rested for Furnishing Sunday Liquor.
New CASTLE, Oct. FL Special. HAIRY
Wright, aged 16, and two Italians, named
John Morocco and Louis Frazio, had hear
ing here this afternoon on the charge of at
tempting to wreck trains on the Pittsburg
and Lake Erie Railroad, the information
having been made by detective from the
Perkins agency at Pittsburg The evidence
showed that hob-nail shoe, with an iron
nut in the toe, two inches in diameter, had
been tied on the rail on the morning of July
26. Two days after Wright had said that he
placed the shoe there in fun, and if it had
wrecked q coal train he would not care, as
he would simply have to haul coal.
On July 18, about midnight, Engineer
Fowler ran into an obstruction at Moravla,
which nearly wrecked the train Investiga-
tion showed that piece of sawlog, II feet
long, had been placed upon the track. Evi-
dence submitted to-day showed that the
Italians had admitted to placing the obstruc-
tion upon the track to get revenge on the
engineer, who, they claimed, had tried to
run them down while they were on hand
car. The three defendants were each held
in the sum of $500 for court Immediately
after the hearing the four Perkins detec-
tives interested in the case (Cloud Perkins,
son of the head of the agency; E. Booth
Todd, T. j. Work and James Carey) were
arrested on information of Fred Rosano,
friend of the two Italians, and Edward
Wright father of the boy defendant, charg
ing them with furnishing liquor on Sunday,
and also with furnishing liquor to minors.
1t is said the detectives secured their valu-
able information by judicious use OF the
beverage.

ing he had her shoes reset, and to all ap-
