THE CIVIL DIVISION.
Case of w. NJ. Harris VS.. Paul
Landy Settled.

There was long trial in the civil di-
vision Of the District Court this morn
ing, and some intricate matters OF account
were con sidered by Judge Sweetland in
arriving at a decision in this case. which
was that of William NJ. Harris, .Ir., VS..
Paul Landy.
Mr.. Harris sued Mr. Landy TO recover
an alleged balance Of S23S 81 for lumber
furnished for the erection of n story and
a half storehouse MIR. Landy claimed
as a set OFF bill amounting to s412. 80, but
admitted that on MIR. Harris lumber bill
he had been gwen credit for sl15, whicn
should he deducted from the set off, which
left the accounts very nearly square.
IL was claimed by Mr.. Harris that some
o. the charges for harness repairing on
Mr.. Landy's bill were grossly excessive.
this excess i'm charges il alleged TO be due
TO i'll fcclinR arising from the suit being
brought by Mr.. Harris.
That he owes something to Mr. Harris
for lumhc Mr.. Landy did not deny ut to-
days trial. but he also claimed that Mr.
Harris overcharged MIN, making the bill
about $500 when IL was agreed originally
that the lum bor for the barn should not
cost over $3.50 or s2G0. Tho testimony rs
20 the value of an old harness when 1t
was loaned by Mr. Landy tn Mr. Harris
and when il was returned, took up good
part of the time devoted To the trial.
Judge Sweetland gave judgment for
the plaintiff for Sos. 90.

LOAVES SMALLER.
Five Cent Loaf Weighs Two to
Three Ounces Less Than Usual.

New York, Aug. pa fve-cent loaf OF
bakers bread weighed pound last week, but
il weighs from two to three ounces less this
week Practically all the small bakers in the
city have met the advance in the price OF -four
by decreasing the weight OF loaves.
One of them, when asked why he did not
add cent to the price and maintain the
standard weight of the loaf, replied
"The people wouldn't pay the increased
price We have 20 make the loaf smaller"
The bake shops which do small business
each with the residents of their immediate vi
cinity were caught with small stocks Of -four
on hand when the price was advanced. They
are now compelled TO pay from 81 to $3.50 per
barrel more than month ago.
This would add from a half 20 three.Quar.
ters Of a cent 10 the cost of each pound loaf.
With apparently one mind the bakers reduced
the size Of the loaf in proportion 10 the in
crsas, in the cost OF -four. They made no Sc
crct of it, and when the more observing OF
their customers complained they explained the
reason for IL.
ON the east side bread Is the most import
ant item i'm many a household bill of fare. A
smaller loaf means great desl 90 thousands
Of families In the tenement districts " is the
main staple food. The cutting of OF two or
three ounces from the weight Of each loaf
means that many families will eat less bread
than formerlyvs~
should the price Of -four be still further adj
vanced the bakers probably again Will cut
the size Of loaves, and the hardship upon the
poor will be correspondngly greater.

owed Mr. Carr less than S. Mr. Carr
called upon others and was confronted
with thessame answer.
At noon he returned 10 his store, and
in little closet found Lakes overcoat
and In the inside pocket found "A lot OF
bills which showed how he had carried on
his stealing
One bill was bill for s52. IS, which
had been given Lake for collection.
All Of the items of this bill had been
copied upon one OF Mr.. Carr's bill heads
by Lake, one given to the person who
owed the BILL and who paid, the original
bill being returned TO Mr. Carr, Lake
saying that the lady would pay 10 as soon
as she received her pension money, and
that the woman had sickness in her
family which prevented her from settling
at once. Mr.. Carr knew that the lady had
been sick and of course believed Lake.
Another customer Of MIR. Carr was SAID To
have mot with an accident and was con-
fined to her home for some time. and
young Lake took advantage OF this and
told Mr. Carr that she was unable To pay
her bills. but upon investigation Mr.. Carr
found that both of the ladies' had. as in
the past paid their bills promptly and
owed only for weeks groceries
Mr. Carr, up TO today, has found that
young Lake has stolen at least S400, but
thinks that the amount will reach over
$1,000 Whom asked what young Lake
had done with the money, Mr.. Carr SAID
that he was afraid that he had spent it in
the gam bling dens at Olneyville. as he and
others had seen Lake in tho vicinity of
the dives and rs Lake had no other bad
habits il is supposed that this is where the
money has gone
Those who know young Lake are very
much surprised as he was looked upon as
one of the model brand of good Young
men. and had been led TO the gam bling
hels by others. He is a mem ber OF the
Roger Williams Free Baptist church and
took an active part in the Sunday school
of that church.

Club, and while not the owner OF a pi-
cycle was good rider. and has upon more
than one occasion been the winner in

Mr.. Carr says, that he knows where
young Lake is at the present time. and Is
somewhat in hopes thnt the friends of che
young man will make good a part of
the cash. and if this is done, it is probable
that he will not be prose cuted. The un-
fortunate young man has father,
mother and a brother residing in this city.
and they are oraZed with grief.
This is only one of the very few cases
that come To light where gam bling is the
cause of the wrong doing and If Lakes
case was the only one, that would bo
good and sufficient reason for driving
every gambler from within the borders
of the state.

LAW VIOLATED.
Leasing OF ConyiclS TO Private
Parties Declared Illegal.

Atlanta. Ga, Aug. 26.-The sensation
caused by the publication of Colonel
Byrd 5 report showing the awful condi-
tion Of the mi isdemeanor convicts leased by
the county authorities to private individ-
uals was succeeded today by another
sensation. IL has been discovered that
every convict so leased has merely to ap-
peal to tho courts To be promptly released,
owing TO the fact that his Incarceration
under such circumstances is as much in
disohedionce To the law as was tho oifenso
which led To his conviction.
Every misdomeunOr convict camp con
trolled by private individuals in Georgia
is nest CT illegality. Every man em-
ploying misdemeanor convicts for private
gain is breaking tho law. Every county
official who leases or erinits tn be leased
"a misdcmeanor convict for other than
pullio work does so in violence to the
plainest statute IN tie law books OF the
state, and in addition is probably liable
for personal damages.
Ii il doubtful if the people will wait
long before some action is taken, showing
tho pressing need for immediate reform
in this direction. Without single eX-
Ception the attorneys OF Atlanta ycstpr
day said on habens corpus proceed ngs
they could release every miSdemeanur
convict from confinement in private
camps, aud that no contract between the
counties and lessees was worth the paper
10 was written on.
The Supreme Court Of the state has dc.
cidcd exactly this. and in two cases has
declared so positively and uucqui vocally
against tbe legality of leasing n,iSdemean.
or cOnvicts to private individuals that
there Is no room for doubt a. TO the legal
asuect of the case.

DEATHS INCREASING.
Yellow Fever in Havana - Weather
Conditions UnfayOrable.

Washington, AnR. %. In his report to
Surgeon General Wyman for the week
ended last saturday, DIR. W. f. Drummer,
sanitary Inspector for the Marine Hos
pital service at Havana, says:
" The deaths from all causes are In
crcasing rapidly. The dcaths from yellow
igver show u slight increase. or the %
deaths from this cause - occurred among
tho Spanish soldiers and sailors. The
largest man-of-war here has been removed
from tho Havana side Of the harbor To a
point In the open hay, considered TO be
the farthCst from infection.
1t has been the policy Of the Spanish
govcrnTent in the last f5w weeks not to
send sick soldiers here from all parts uf the
island. as had been done formerly, and this
III a measure, accounts for the decrease
Of cases. Convalesconts among the soldiers
are being removed rapidly TO spain. Re-
cruits are not coming over to take their
places and 10 is probable that there will
be less yellow fever during the following
months than for the corresponding time
during the past two years.
The weather conditions are most un-
favorable. Intense heat during the greater
part of tho day is followed by heavy rains
which now fail Co cool the atmosphere. "
