Trouble in Pslice Court.

Assistant Marshal ]. 2. Willard and
Police Judge c. D. Burnette have
clashed over 4 replevin suit brought
by Henry KOnrad to regain possession
OF the liquor secured in the raid on
Konrad's joint Friday afternoon.
Millard is threatened with punish
ment for alleged contempt OF court,
and stands mighty good chance Of
losing his job on the police force.
Immediately after Konrad's Joint
was raided and the liquor taken away,
be instituted a replevin suit 10 dis
trlct court to regain possession OF the
liquor. Willard announced his inten-
tlon Of giving the liquor hack to Kon-
rad, as he had become tired OF being
sued. The city attorney offered to
Indemnify Willard, but the latter de-
clined and insisted on turning the
liquor over TO the sheriff on a writ of
replevin. The court then issued an
order directing Millard to turn it over
to the city attorney for safe keeping,
but Millard refused to comply with
The order and the sheriff got the
liquor.
Now the police Judge threatens 10
punish Millard for contempt Of court.
There is question as to whether the
police court has any right to order an
officer to turn goods over to the city
attorney. The goods are properly in
the hands of the marshal until the
case is settled in court, and the priyi-
lese of holding or letting 20 Of them
In case OF a replevip SUN is entirely
optional with him.
But the refusal of Willard to give a
redellvery bond and hold the LIQUOR
will likely result in his losing his
official head, as it places him 10 an
uncertain light with the temperance
element. The recovery of the LIQUOR
on replevin suit will seriously 10.
convenience the city attorney in his
effort to prosecute Konrad. There
will be strong influence brought to
bear on Mayor Brown to have Millard
removed, and the outcome will settle
the question Of whether Mayor Brown
and City Attorney Woods are in har-
mony concerning the enforcement of
the liquor law.
Mayor Brown was called up by tele.
phone Saturday and told that /,

toned as to the truth OF the report,
He replied:
III Mi:lard has done his duty he
will not be removed. II he has not
done his duty he will be asked to re,

The question now is, will the mayo,
consider that it was Mlllard's duty Il
hold the liquor and assist in the pros
ecution, or did be have the mora
right as the mayor sees it to let tn,
liquor go on a writ of replevin apt
handicap the city attorney in his wal
on the joints?
The police judge says that he will
take action concerning the punish
ment of Willard for contempt afte
the mayor has shown his hand.

and Story" 1t is published by the

and popular work called forth by this
wonderfully interesting national epis
ode. Whatever Senator Ingalls, tou-
ches he adorns and this book shines
and sparkles in the light of his
gen. The present work is worthy OF
his genius, and will bea monument
