GAME SELLERS GAIN A POINT

GAME SELLERS GAIN A POINT.
]. r. Rutan. OF the Central Market. Newark,
gained conc assi)n from the Commissioners when
the game bills considered. He complained
that New-Jersey dealers We're seriously affected
by the present law. which prevents the selling Of
game after the close OF the season. During the
holidays, Newark people he said went to New
York to buy game and while they were there
purchased other edibles. Newark merchants
might have sold had they been able to offer the
game. He asked that the time for selling game
be extended thirty days after the close OF the
season so that the privilege would extend over the
holidays The commissioners offered to extend
the time twenty days. ard then Mr.. Rutan, by an
ingenious argument. induced them to split the
difference During the discussion OF the game
bills. the old battle between the upper and lower
part Of the State concerning the time for hunting
was renewed. and the commissioners decided 10
leave the questions involved with the Legislature
for consideration.

IN THE POLICE COURT.
Cases Disposed OF Yesterday by His
Hon. Justice Burroughs.

The case of X. p. Allen. IL young white
man charged with selling liquor on Sun
day over Mars bar, at the corner of
Church and Union streets. was disposed
of yesterday after many combinations.
Mr.. Allen and his witnesses claimed that
the room. which was raided on March
20 last, was the quarters of the Eagle
Club, which required its members to
pay an initiation fee of 80 cents. and no
regular monthly dues. Ii was open
only on Sundays, but no one except
members could get liquor Judge Will
cox, who represented the accused, took
occasion to sit down, iguratively speak
ing, pretty hard on Officers Simpson
ana Russell. Justice Burroughs, when
the evidence was all in. arrived at the
conclusion that there was no doubt but
that the Eagle Club" was only a ruse
TO get around the law He fined Allen
Sto0 anu costs. Judge Wilcox offered
10 advise his clients TO pay II If his
Honor would reduce the amount one
half but Justice Burroughs refused to
do this, saying he had established a rule
to impose fine of 800 in cases like the
one In hand. and would not break 1t.
An appeal was accordingly noted, and
the accused furnished bond In the sum
OF $3.50, with MIR. Friedman as surety.
UNLUCKY WILLIAM.
own estimation the most unlucky man
that ever lived. He appeared in the
Police Court yesterday in the role of
complainant in the case of Annie Rue
whom he charged in the warrant
upon which she was arrested with steal
ing $50 from his clothes on Thursday
night. When the case was called
Nliiiam mad evidently repented OF his
action, and wished to withdraw the
cnHrEn. URClIfinu ha A
nocent, and that he did not know what
had become of his money. He was so
boisterous about II, and so evidently
under the influence OF liquor that he
was arrested in the midst OF his har.
angue and fined 81 and costs for be-
ing drunk Meanwhile the erstwhile
prisoner. duly acquitted by His Honor
tripped gaily forth To freedom.
