DEVELOPED A
LIVELY SPAT
A MIXED UP BANKRUPTCY CASE.
HEARD BEFORE REFEREE
CAMPBELL.
THE IL MAS pkCCEn
THE LIE WAS PASSED
AND BLOWS Threatened.

What promised to be a lively spat
was nipped in the bud this morning by
Referee Thompson Campbell, in the
bankruptcy proceedings of the John
Capiice company against Terrence Cas-
sidy and John Sexton. Some time since
the firm of Sexton & Cassidy was de-
clared bankrupt by Judge Knowles and
the matter referred to Referee Camp
bell, who set this morning for an exam
ination of the bankrupts .
The testimony developed the fact that
the firm was in debt about $500 after
doing business for seven weeks at the
Silver Lake house. Sexton testified that
a few nights before they closed he and
his partner, Terrence Cassidy, had
counted over and. left in their safe $500
in cash; hat he left Cassidy there that
night and that the next morning Sex
ton found the cash missing. On inquir-
ing of his partner, Cassidy admitted
taking the money, and claimed to have
left it in the Caplice Commercial COM
pany safe, but the cash was never re-
turned. A day or so later Cassidy took
he books and turned them over to the
Montana Dressed Meat ompany, which
had since collected over $500, and APP
piled it to their account. Cassidy then
mortgaged the furniture to his uncle,
Thomas Rowan, for $500, and the place
was compelled to close.
Attorneys w. e.. Carroll ana e. B..
Howell, who appeared for the creditors,
asked several pertinent questions of
Cassidy, who became decidedly bellig-
erent.
Cassidy was asked if he had not
agreed with John Caplice to deed over
his house and lot in satisfaction of his
debt to the Caplice Commercial COM
Tn sometime last spring, the property
to be valued at $4,000.
You lie,' shouted Cassidy.
You're another said the attorney.
and blows We're threatened, when Ref
cree Campbell took a hand and init
Vated strongly to Cassidy that if he
did not conduct himself quietly he
would cause him to be put behind the
bars.
The examination then proceeded more
quietly, and the fact was elected that
Cassidy, instead of giving Caplice a
deed for $4,000, had turned around and
given a deed to his uncle. Thomas
Rowan, for $4,000, out of which Rowan
paid a mortgage of $1,000 and gave Cas-
sidy credit on a note which he held for
other $1,000.
The attorneys expect to recover these
preferences under the bankruptcy law,
as they occurred within -four months
prior to the adjudication of bankruptcy.

closely might not put some parliamentary oues-
tion to him which he could not answer, and the
little blue book began to assume. to the member,
the size of Websters Unabridged Dictionary
Things began well. A few unimportant meas
ures were called up and passed without debate.
and the member began TO feel that life IN the
chair was after ALL rather easy, when a point
of order was made by shrewd member OF the
opposite side Of the House-some question as to
the correct form of bill The member ruled
against the point of order.
The clerk almost lost his presence of mind at
the ruling and turned TO look at the MEMBER
with astonishment written all over his face. He
had never heard such ruling before. 1mme-
diately there arose a dozen protests. The major
ity leader, who usually rather friendly to
the member, could not submit to this ruling, and
intimated in rather a loud stage whisper that
onds as IT takes to tell 1t. the member doubted
whether he knew anything about any of the
Constitution: The leader in a loud voice was
calling. "Oh, Mr.. Speaker" The member was
vainly trying to restore order with vigorous raps
of the gavel; the clerks were taking active
interest in the debate the members; the news
paper men were reeng off copy by the page,
when, to the members great relief, the Speaker
himself came up the steps to the chair.
In a few minutes the disorder had been
Strengthened out and the ruling had been

| the Speaker had not got to the point by quite

nize half dozen members in his excitement,
| among others his up-country friend, and that he
| had come very close to losing his temper. So
| his elderly friend who told him about his once
voting wrong, gave him this little lecture:
Never lose your temper if you are acting as
Speaker: If in doubt to your rulings. rely

you. for rarely will the majority reverse it's

Crime is ignorance, and education will teach peo-
pie that it does not pay TO do wrong. Reforma-
ton is from within. If officials disgrace

existing conditions New-York is not a home city.
There are more hungry hearts here trying to feed
on husks than in any other place 1 have ever
visited Perhaps the of this is that there are
so many strangers. These strangers often become
citizens. and we'll consider what bill of
the city provides for them. Take the daily
papers-whole columns of theatre notices. nothing
else. Now, theatres all right (some of them)

be other places, but they don't advertise, and

place where young man could take his mother or

do not suppose there Are any signs warning people
to go in
I may be little crude in my ideas but think
