HORTON LOSES HIS SUIT
He Failed to Prove That
Bishop DETAINED His
Character.

The suit of Charles M Horton, former
Receiving Teller of the Hudson County
National Bank, to recover $4,000 from
David A. Bishop, the mule dealer, iol
defamation of character, came to an
abrupt termination in the Supreme Court
yesterday. On cross-examination Horton
admitted that he had informed the bank
officials at the time of the investigation
that he thought he had received the
money from Mr.. Bishop.
]. Warren Hardenburg, the CASHIER
testified that in November, 1885 the money
was placed to the credit of Mr. Bisnop.
Hoton and Edward Farrier. his assistant,
were asked for their designations. Far
rier afterwad applied for the salary due
him. but Horton neve did although It
amounted to $3.50.
When the plaintiff had rested his case.
Lawer yfedenburg applied for non-suit.
He said that no damages had been placed
nor an ymalice on the part of the defend
ant There was nothing In the case to
show that Horton might not have been
discharged il this thing had never hap
pened. 1t was nothing but a mistake. Mr..
Bishop went to the bank to make the
deposit and the plaintiff thought he had
made 1t. The defendant had made no
complaint against Horton or anyone else
He thought he was entitled to be credit
ed with he amount he belived he had
deposited He had not asked for or pro-
cured Horizons discharge.
Justice Lippincott remarked that even
If there was any ground for action he
would not allow more than nominal dam
ages.
1T seems to me- said Justice Lippin-
cott that unless the defendant made
some charge against some official he could
not be held accountable.
Lawyer Speer suggested that Mr. Bishop
might have wanted to use the money for
a short time and took that method OF
getting the use Of 1t or he might have
desired to get Horton discharged.
Justice Lippincott said that no malice
had been proved, 1t was merely mis-
take. there had been no defamation OF
character, and where honesty existed be-
tween both parties no ground for. action
could exist. He granted the motion Ior

SUSPECTED OF ROBBERY.
Cummings Held For Looting Saloo'
and Drownding Dog.

Joseph Cummings twenty-one years olu'
of No. 27s Wayne street, was arrested by
Detective Lee of the Gregory street sta
ton house, last night, as disorderly per-
son. Cummings was suspected Of having
robbed saloon owned by James Nc
Hugh, at NO. 303 First street, several days
ago. The night the saloon was robbed
fox terrier dog that had been kept about
the place as a watch dog was found
drowned in the tank behind the bar. The
persons who robbed the saloon were sup
posed to have drowned the dog for their
own safety.
Detective Lee went to the vicinity OF the
saloon and waited about for some time,
watching the persons in the vicinity
Cummings with another man came walk
ing toward Lee and as soon as they recog-
nized him they started to run away. Lee
followed Cummings and after a chase of
several blocks succeeded in capturing him.
Cummings was brought to the Gregory
street station house, where he was locked
up
When searched before the Sergeant 5
desk, several old and mutilated coins were
found in his possession. These coins were
taken to McE5ugh's saloon, where they
were identified by the proprietor. A ten
several other ways was the evidence used
against Cummings when arraigned in the
First Criminal Court this morning.
Justice Potts found Cummings guilty
Of the crime and held him in Sl,00o bail to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
