PoRT JERvIs, Feb. 0.-Peter d. Ludington OF
Monticello, Sullivan county, began q suit in that
place on Monday against tho Hon. Charles T..
Fitch. editor of the Rochester Post Democrat
and Recent of tho University OF the state of
New York, for money borrowed from him over
forty years ago. In 1857, when the two wero law
students together, Mr. Fitch lectured on Mon
day night At tho Court House In Monticello be-
fore the Sullivan County Teachers Institute on
tho subject, Abraham Lincoln" As he was
leaving tho room Charles A. Smith served a

tion. The summons was made returnaolo on
Monday, tho htn.
Ludington alleges that no and Fitch were
students at tho Albany Law School, aud grad
uated In tho same class in the spring OF 1897.
A short time before the day OF graduation
Fitch borrowed "A small sum Of money Of Lud-
ington. promising 70 send u 70 him after he
reached his fathers home In the city OF SYRIA

wrote TO Fitch reminding him OF the loan and
OF his promise to pay II, The return mail

insulting letter" he ever received In his life.
Fitch answered that IL Ludington was really in
want, II he really needed clothes or food. o.

authorities, he would remit the amount which
IL announced that Fitch was to speak In Month

Anthony Comstook on Friday, was arraiRned IN
Centre Street Court yesterday. Comstock had
q big bundle OF books in court which he had
seized In Prowells store. They wero copies Of
Boccaccio's "Decameron," Queen Margaret's
"Heptameron," and Balzao's "Droll Stories"
and other works that are openly displayed for
sale on most news-stands. There wero also
other books in the package, but OF these Mr..
Prowoll had n story TO tell
"Over fifteen years ago." said he TO . reporter,
"there was a book published by George w. NJ.
Reynolds that was called Mysteries OF the
Court OF London 1t was printed In four large
volumes and IL was so sHlacious that It was
suppressed. At that time I wrapped what
eople had In an old newspaper aud put them
back In my private Office. That package has
never been opened since. although two years ago
an O. expurgated edition WAS reprinted by Chicago
house and It's sale was allowed. Then. three
years ago. there was book published under tho
title Of Lustful Love- When read II, ! found
mp. too. and wrote tho publisher that ! would
not attempt to sell any such works. under.
stand that my copies OF BalEac's Droll Stories
were seized on account OF an Illustrated ad-
presence of which was ignorant. When / was
arrested all these old books were seized. am
fearful that these books will be put In evidence
against me, although they were not exposed for
sale" "
In court ono OF Comstock's agents said that
he had bought copy OF "Jessie's Tempta-
tiOns' from tho prisoner. and that " was this
hook that has formed the basis OF the arrest.
Prowell pleaded not guilty. and Magistrate Cor
nell held him in $500 ball for examination next
Wednesday. Bail was furnished.
