WITNESS HURST F0RGETFUL.
His Testimony Did Not Suit Mrs,
sallade's Lawyer.
Defendant Schneider Commences His
Defense of the Arlington.

When the case of Sallade against
Schneider was resumed to-day before
Justice Stiner, in the Sixth District
Court, the first witness called was
Samuel Goodale, who lives at the Fifth
Avenue Hotel and who is agent for the
property in Twentyfourth street against
which Mrs. Sallade has been conducting
her crusade.
After much wrangling between coun-
sci. during which very little testimony
was given by the witness, Clerk George
w. Hurst of the Arlington House, who
had been missing when the proceedings
began, came and took the witness-stand.
Hurst said that he did not know what
took place in the hotel, and that seemed
to rattle the defense, and their ques-
lions became wild and rambling. Finally,
Barnett got mad and pitched into the
witness for not telling on the stand
what he had told In the lawyers office
yesterday.
At last, with the Judges help, the
witness said the house was bad. He
whose relations he suspected. He said
that there were seven transient rooms,
the others being occupied by permanent
guests. All corners registered.
John Barnard. who lives at 1888 Sixth
ting upon the rear Of the Arlington,
was called. Barnard is a Frenchman,
and spoke brokenly. He said that he
had heard noises, singing and quarrel
Ing In the dining-r room of the house.
On cross-examination Lawyer Friend
endeavored to prove that Barnard had
formerly run an indescribably vile place
In Prince street, near South Fifth
avenue. Barnard admitted running the
place, and that there had been trouble
there.
Other witnesses called were Adolph
Troub. who said he had been robbed of
a diamond in the Arlington on May 81;
Policeman James Mcmahon, Detective
Jerolemon, of the Nineteenth Precinct,
and James Smith. an employee of the
office.
Lawyer Friends motion to dismiss the
complaint was denied, and he called as
witnesses to show that the house was
respectable Mr.. and Mrs. Adolph Kap-
Ian, no address given: Aaron Morris,
tailor at 143 Fourth avenue; William
Van Antwerp, 81 Broadway; Col John
S. Ellison, Of One Hundred and Eigh-
teenth street; Henry Brunhild, a Broad
way liquor dealer, and Alanson Van
Fortieth street, all of whom testified
briefly that they had lived at the house
and had never seen anything wrong
about the place.
The case was then adjourned till next

the conferences already held had been
productive of definite results, he said:

"Oh, II was just a small pocket knife
