HE WAS MARRIED AGAIN
WHY MIR. JOHNSON NEGLECTED. TO
PAY HIS ALIMONY.
Sent to Jail for COntempt-Mount YER
non Bank Indictments
Court Briefs,

Judge McMaster dealt out chunk of JUS
tice yesterday that brought forth subdued
but involuntary applause from the specta-
tors gathered in the courtroom. The occa-
sion was the hearing of the evidence in the
contempt proceedings brought against Will
liam A. Johnson by his former wife, Char
lotte Johnson the facts in the case leading
up to the proceedings being as follows: On
Sept. 81 1897 Mrs. Johnson secured a di-
vorce from her husband, and was awarded
the custody of her minor child, with $50 at
torney's fees, and an allowance of IS
month for the support of the child. On
Jan. 10 last Mrs Johnson appeared in court
and stated that she had not, up to that
time, been paid anything by Johnson the
order of the court On being brought into
court, johnson stated that he had been out
of work for some time and had then recent
ly secured place, and promised to pay up
all arrearages and continue to pay the stip
ulated amount each month in accordance
with the award
Last Friday, however, Mrs johnson again
reported to the court that the money was
still unpaid, and again her ex-husband was
ordered to appear in court. When brought
in by the sheriff he had no explanation to
offer for his neglect aside from the state
ment that he had recently been remarked
and had been away on wedding tour. so
far, he said, he had not had the time to
attend to the ma tier.
The court refraned from lengthy remarks,
simply stating that the culprit was guilty
of a gross contempt of court and fined him
81 and costs and further ordered that he be
confined in Jail until he had Iquidated the
fine and all arrearageS of payments to his
wife, now amounting to $50, at the rate of
81 day.

CLUNE'S ASSIGNMENT.

The hearing of evidence in the suit for a
receivership in the assignment case of John

had been set for yesterday afternoon, was
further continued by Judge Allen until to-
morrow. 1t is sure thing, however that
there will be no receiver appointed as John
WEIGH the assignee, has qualified, and the
court is not impressed with the urgency or
need of changing him for a receiver as the
case stands now The hearing tomorrow
Will, however, be largely in the nature of
an opportunity for the preferred creditors
to state their views of the case. The as
signee has, since his appointment, been busy
trying to arrive at some knowledge of the
condition OF the properties and will have
his report ready, in all probability, to sub
nit to the court Tomorrow
One of the disclosures which he will make
in his report will be that the inventory.
when filed, will show a decrease in assets
over the figures given out roughly at the
time of the assignment, and an increase in
the amount of the liabilities. One item re-
ported as an asset by Mr.. Clune at the time
OF his assignment was bundle of so-called
leases of goods bought on the installment
plan, which were listed at $36, 600 approx
imately This, when it is taken up, will
prove to be considerably less than that fig
ure under an appraisement. Probate Com
missioner O'Bryan, in speaking of the mat
ter to reporter yesterday, stated that the
leases would probably be appraised at about
~ per cent of the face value of the papers
however, to guard as much possible
against a loss on these leases Assignee
WEIGH asked permission of the court to re-
tain in his employ the collectors who have
been working for the assignor. The persons
owing accounts 20 the stores are widely
scattered, and an inexperienced person could
not find many of them 1t was pointed out
that in order TO make these leases WELD

to continue the men in their positions at

BELLIGERENT DENTONSTR ATOMS
LIKELY TO BREAK OUT ANY TIME.
Hostile Operations OF q Crowd mt
HaughvilIe-SeveralW Wounded
"White Folks" Cut Up.

At Haughville last evening there was
small sized riot, which attracted crowd of
several hundred people and almost stopped
traffic in Michigan street The trouble
started in Herman Goetzs saloon and was
carried out into the street. Two foundry
men, who recently went to work at one of
the Haughville foundries, boarded at
Goetz's. Last evening one of them went to
pay his bar bill and alteration followed
on account of the correctness of the bill,
the customer claiming that it was 20 cents
too high. John Packer, the bartender,
called the fellow liar, and the fight began.
Chris Henry went to the assistance of the
bartender and John Conlague took sides
with the foundrymen. Billiard balls, cues,
glasses and chairs were used until the inside
of the saloon was almost wrecked. Win
dows were smashed and bar fixtures de-
molished Strangely enough however, none
of the men was seriously hurt during the
fight in the saloon.
Outside however, the fight took a more
serious turn. Henry and Packer drove their
assailants into the street. Conlague took
refuge in a drug store and was pursued by
Henry. Conlague met him at the door with
a ball bat and struck him several blows on
the head which put Henry out of the fight.
In the meantime Packer had scattered the
others. The crowd was getting large. and
the two foundrymen made their escape be-
fore any police arrived. 1t was about $50
when the fight occurred, after the patrol
men had started to headquarters for roll
call The bicycle patrolmen, Schroeder and
STREET., were sent to Haughville, and
rested Packer, Henry and Conlague The
foundrymeh were not captured They are
said to be itinerants, ard it is believed they
will not stay in Indianapolis long enough to
fall into the hands of the police.
