Circuit Court.

The second case in Court last week,
which was on trial as we went to
press, was the case Of James Seed &
Co. vs.. The H. Joseph Co., who
claimed about $780, 90 due, and after
a protracted legal fight obtained
Judgment for about $4,000. 1t will
probably be appealed.
The People vs.. Conrad Howse for
furnishing liquor to minor, was
next tried, and the jury returned a
verdict of not guilty.
The People VS.. Mrs. Owen was
brought under special statute, and
plead guilty. She was sentenced to
six months in 1onia. where she was
taken Monday morning.
The ejectment case Of Gilmore VS..
Joseph, depending on tax title, was
of more than local interest, aud was
stubbornly fought by Hon. Seth
Bean, of Adrian, for the plaintiff,
and j. X. Wright. and M. J. Con-
nine for defendant. 1t was entirely
a question of law, and a verdict fol
the plaintiff was directed by the
Court, and the property restored to
Mr.. Gilmore. Judge Sharpe is in
clined to hold the tax law valid, and
rendered his decision in this case en-.
tirely on defects of the record, not
passing upon the other objections
raised by the defendant.
The order OF the Court heretofore
granted, for Sheriff Chalker to show
cause why a mandamus should not
issue to compel him to serve an at
tachment issued in favor of Bates &
Co., vs.. Staley & Trench. which he
refused to serve because the property
was in the hands of a receiver, was
argued at length by M. J. Connine
and Jos. Patterson for the relatort
and by Geo. L. Alexander and J. X.
Wright for the respondent, and the
writ denied.

AN UNWILLING
 TRIP HOMEWARD
Passengers FOrcibly Taken Away From the Land
 Of Gold.
The Steamship President BrOko Her Machinery and Could Not
 Land at UnalaklIk.

The steamship President, now lying in San Francisco harbor was attached yes terday by a suit brought in the United States District Court by eight passen- gers, who allege that they have been damaged and injured to the extent of 5000 each by the action of the skipper Captain Nelson in taking them from St. Michael to San Francisco against their will.
 The libelants are Benjamin r. Gray, Herbert Kendall, Anderson w. Meadows, Augustus C. Cabel Henry Peters, Ernest Nuessler, Mrs. Igna Nuessler (his wife) and Arthur Paul. They tell a hard story in their complaint and one which, if true, places Skipper Nelson in a very un- favorable light.
 They allege that on October 15, 1897, while they were at the port of St. AIi- chael awaiting the opening of the sea- son for the transportation of themselves and their stores to the Klondike mines the steamship President was lying in the harbor of St. Michael, seeking assistance in order to enable her to discharge her cargo. There was no available labor to be hired at that place, and there was therefore danger that the ship would be frozen in during the winter. In this emergency the compliments, being de- siro,ls of reaching certain gold diggings near Unalaklik, some forty miles to the northward of St. Michael. agreed with Skipper Nelson that they would dis charge his vessel provided that he would give them passage thereon to Unalaklik. thev also to pay SIS each Tn cash.
 on arriving at Unalaklik six of the pas- sengers went on shore and made ar ra,1gementS to procure a whaleboat to as- sist in transferring their stores to the shore. After their return to the ship that evening and after a small quantity of their stores had been landed by In> dians in skin boats, Skipper Nelson hoisted his anchor and went a mile or two out to sea, telling his passengers that he would run in again in the morn ing and land them and their stores But when morning came the skipper refused to land his passengers and proceeded on his way to San Francisco. He met all their protests with profane and intem- perate language.
 The complainants allege further that owing to the crowded condition of the steamship and lack of preparation for the voyage they were not given proper accommodation and food, and they suf- fered great inconvenience on their en- forced voyage:
 The captains defense will be that the machinery of the steamer broke so that 1t was not possible for the vessel to re- main where she was without risk of great damage, if not loss.
 Page. McCutcheon & Els. Robert Ferral and W. H. Payson are the attor- neys for the libelants.

DISSIPATION TALE DENIED.
HeDry Hart Says His Stepfother Is
 iD Seattle CD Business.

Friends of Henry Hart, the race track bookmaker. have frequently made the assertion of late that John s. Hart of Alameda, formerly in the sailor board ing-house business with William Me Carthy, had not left home on account of any trouble with his wife at all, but that his intention in fleeing was to avoid set ting up finances with the stepson ac- cording to the terms of the wifes will This story is denied by the interested man. He also states that his stepfather is now in Seattle, and will return home in few days.
 "I expect a letter from him to-mor- row. he said yesterday. "He went to Seattle at my request, and l gave him letters of introduction to merchants of Seattle and Victoria. The story that my stepfather and myself have not got along well is untrue. We are both inter ested in a Klondike scheme, and the re- cent sale of the property left us free to act in the matter at once.
 Tt Is true, l suppose, that Mir. Hart had some words with his wife, and that may be the reason why he did not tell her he was going away. This is one of the cases where man has good cause to call on heaven to deliver him out of the hands of his friends"
