BORROWED PASSAGE MONEY.
One of Number of the p. G. Army's
Makeup.

A case came up in the District
Civil Court yesterday afternoon,
showing how mean some people can
be. A man named Christy Miller
came here passenger on the brig
antine w. q. Irwin about four or
five weeks ago. Miller had no money
and his passage hither was paid for
by H. Brady, employed rs cook on
the Irwin. On the way over, ol
course, Brady helped Miller in more
ways than one. On arrival here
Miller joined the 2. g. guards, and
has been living ever since on good
p. G. sauer krout and cod fish. This
is where the mean part comes in.
On the first trip Brady did not ex-
pect to get his money back, but
after a couple of months he went to
Miller and asked that the loan be
refunded. Miller treated the re-
quest with disdain, and Brady aP,
pealed to the law. The Star Cham
ber's defender failed to appear in
Court and judgment was given By
default in Brady's favor for the
amount.

COURT CHRONICLE.
The Conspiracy Trial--An Editor
Rebuked.

At noon to-day the prosecution
was still putting in its case against
Walker and Sinclair, charged with
conspiring to destroy the Provision
al Government.
Mr.. Creighton, of counsel for the
defense, at the opening of the Court
this morning, called the attention of
Judge Whiting to the prejudicial
headings over the report Of the trial
in the Advertiser He said he had
no desire to press the matter, but
considered it was one in which it
was incumbent on the Court to pro-
tect itself.
Mr.. Johnstone, editor Of the Ad-
vertiser, who was present reporting
the case for his paper, was called up
before the bench, where he admitted
that the headings were improper,
but said they had been put over the
report without his knowledge.
The witnesses called since last re-
port we're Thos. Wright, A. S. Pres.

afternoon.
Mr.. Creighton asked for time tc
consult with his colleague, as he in
tended to offer a motion for dis
charge. He suggested that the jury
need not remain during argumen,
Of the motion.
Mr. Hartwell said the practice
elsewhere was that on such motor
the defense rested their case.
Judge Whiting granted reces:
of few minutes, saying that after
ward it would be decided whether
the jury should be dismissed till to
morrow morning.
