A muit in dobt. for §160,000 gold was com. " mencod youterdny in tho Ciroult Court by tho TUnlted Btates Mortgago Compavy. ngainat J. . Young Scommon. Tho enit was on a bond and mortgago for §320,000, ' uuder whicl, it will bo romombored, Mr. Scammon's proporty on thoe cornor of Congrees stroot and Dlichigan and Wabnsh avenues was sold about ten days sgo.

Tho caso boing Boforo Judgo Williams yostor- dny, it appenred that on Moy 80, 1872, Mr, Boammon borrowed of the United Btatos Mortgngo Company £120,000 gold, psyablo in inatallmonts, the first of which will bo dua My 80, 1874, and tho last May 80, 1883, intorest pay- ablo somi-aunually on the 80th of Novomber and May—with a provision authorizing tho Mortgago Qompany to doclare tho wholo principal dug ab once if dofoult was mado in the paymeont of ‘any installment of principal or interest for thirty days after due. Tho loan was socured by & mort- gogo on real estato iu the City of Chicago, and necompaniod by n power of atiornoy authorizing the Mortgago Company to enter up Judgmont for tho wholo lonn atorieo in raso of dofaultin prying auy installment aa provided by the tdrme of the loan, Mr. Scommon laving failed to pay “the Intorest dua Novombor 80, 1874, tho Mortgage Compouy declared tho l‘prhmlpul sum duo at once, and on March 31 ndvertined tha mortgaged proporty for salo. At tho salo tho entiro mort- ‘gaged property was bid off for §100,000, and this was o MOTION TO ENTER UP JUDIA ENT for the balanco of the principnl of the ontire loan, about $150,000. This motion was resisted by Messrs, Trum- bull & Ayer, on the ground that tho mortgaged proporty had been bid off by tho Tresident of the United States Mo\‘tfingo ‘Company, at a groat sacrifice ; that it would be inequitable to allow a Lud;:mnnl, to bo ontered up for tho nlance of the principal not yob due; that, by the salo of the mortgnged premiacs, tho Unifcd’ Btates Mortgnge Company had mado and received more thau the full amount of tho Interest due ; nnd that, no installment of intorest or principal being now duc by tho torms of tho lonn, no judgment could bo entored up on tho warrant of attorney. In other words, that it wos compotent for Mr, Scammon, at any time before the entry of a judgment under tho power of attorney, to have come forward and baye paid all installmants then duo, and bavoe thereby pro- vented the entry of judgment forthe installments wlich, by tho torms of the loan, wera not to fall ‘duo till o fubure poriod; that by tho Balo of the mortgaged premises the United Stntes Mortgago Company bad paid itself all that was duo, and that it ‘must wait till thero wasa failuro to meet somo subsequont inatallmont bofore it could declare the whole sum duo and enter jndg- ment for the amount undor tho power of attor- ney. It wos innisted that tho Mortgnge Company, by collecting from Scammon all that was now due, conld not deprive him of the right which ho would otherwise havo had to como forward, ay all that was now duo, and thereby provant a ?udgmonc for the instslimouts hereatter to be- coma dug, (R, TRUMBULL also appealed t0 tho oquity of tho Court, saying tho presont caso was o very bard oue, that prop- orty worth over $400,000 bad beon sold for $100,000, .ond thet then theso hard-hearted money-lendors camo iuto court with theeo ex- traordinary papers, judgment-noto, ote., demand- ing judpment for tho balanco; and that the times wore hard,—unususlly so,—moncy very searco, and tho whiolo facta appealed strongly (0 the equitable consideration of the Court. MR, DESTER, IN REPLY, enid that this was not an arona of sontiment, buf 5 court of justico, and that he need mako no apology for akings in bobalf of Dis_cllout thoso remedies which the law gave, snd which Mr, Scammon controcted for when Lo obtained plaintill’s money. As to Mr. Scammon's being overrenched in getting him to exccute such pa- pors, ho would say that Mr. Scammon wns not & person likely to be gulled by auy one, but, hoy- over that might be, he would transfer that por- tion of Senator Trumbull's censure tohisbrother, McCagg, Who was_tho life-long friond of Mr. Scammon, and who_drew theso papers. This was o loun mado in Now York beforoe the present Mortgage Committeo was appoloted, and_beforo he (fi.r. D.) was their attorney. Tho lendors omployed Mr. McCngg to draw the papors, and, it is to bo umed, followed his advice in ro- gard to the ure, and hero they wero, Asto tho oppression, it is casy to make sweeping cliarges. ‘* THE EVIDENGE just taken before Your Honor,” gaid Mr, Dextor, **yhows that the dofault ocourred last November, and that thie Mortgage Compeny did not prosg Mr, Bcammon, but waited all whiter, and during tho wintor repoatedly offered to mako him a now loan for the intoreat due, which Mr, 8. declined. So that tho Company in fact demanded mneither principal nor iuterost, but only security for in- terost due, and this on property greaily dopre- cinted and bringing no rents, Docs nny ono ox- poct to bo tronted more kindly by tholr credit- ors? And if o debtor conld not comply with so roasonablo o request, his case {8 hopoless. If ho could, but would not, he deserves no forbear- anco. As to THE VALUE OF TIE PROPERTY, the Benntor’s statemouts wero preposterous. The loun must have boenmado largely on the strength of Mr, Scammon’s name. Tho build- ings wero cmpty and sitnated where thoy would bonlong timo without tenants. Taxes, in- surance, and mqalm running ngainst proporty that no one wonld ucquy prosented a poor out- look. As to moneya boing close, if Benator Trumbull know half ns much about monoy as his succostors ho would kuow that it was nevor moro abundant, It can bo had at 5§ per cont on ood paper in Now York City, aud_is plonty on 100d mortgages in Chicago. 1f this property i oally worth from 400,000 to 500,000 as tho Benator snys, how ensy for Mr. Scammon to ‘borrow enough upen it to pay the Mortgago Comp-ny. What property solls for Is sura ovi- donco of its-vpltie. This sale was widely adver- tiged, Whydid not somo of thaso gentlomon who think so bighly of it put in an appearance ¥ T'horo f8 ANOTIER REASON why this proceoding should Lo no longer de- layed : Croditors doserve Lonorable troatment. "Choy any Mr, Scnmmon is unfortunate, 1f ko, it bocomos more thou over his duty to bo siraightforward. Tho ealo was mada last Tucs- day, and tho Company was on that duy ontitled toite judgment, Tho dobtor asked dolwy that he might nogotiate, which has boen granted ; but, ponding this delsy, it {a in proof that no has slipped upon tho record morigagos to tho extont of nently’ a quarter of a million dollars to othor parties, In it safoto treat with such partics 7 l]uring1 the delay no new_ securltios eru‘hl be honorably made, but it has been dono, 8 to TIE TOINT OF LAW— i it can bo callod suchi—as applying to this caso, Whon tho landlord in tho caso clted distrainod Yor rent, ho aflirmed tho loaso and snnulled the rovious forfoiture.

Eiigarhaia, THE VIOTIM OF APPEARANOCES. Yesterday morning, when the Clork nt the ‘Weat Bide Police Court ealled out the sonorous and gontlemanly name ¢ Jonos,” a mon came slowly out of the prisoner's compartmont, walk- ing with groat apparent diffioulty, holding on to chnirs, railings, and policomen, aud grosning |- whenever his left foob touched tho ground. He had & look of injured innocenco upon bis face, and seomed unable to understand how it wis that be, a Jonos, should find himselt in such n IRco. B T'he Clerk, reading from his record, informed Mr. J, that ho was charged with being drunk and dirorderly, Was ho guiity ? “T expectod a8 much,’ replied Mr, Jone, “X am not guilty. Tho trouble, Judge, ia with np- pesrances. Thoy are nlways agningt mo. If I c_fllflg only get them on my side, I should ba all right. ‘I'ho Justice ropliod that he had noticed that peouliarity in other onscs, Appearauces woro finnnruuy agamnst individuuls who turned up in is Court.

If ho rememberod corrootly, “‘appearances” had appeared and tostifiod againet Mr, Jouos about = month boforo. Thnt was tho case, Mr. Jonessubmitted, but it was due to & fatal combination of circumstances, which latter wore alono against him, Oficer Cleary wformed tho Court that whilo walking his boat on Laflin strect, botween Mon- roo and Adams, the night boforo, he had come acrod the prisoner, who was sitting on the sido~ walk, groaning, and occasionally romarking that Lio hiad » olear case that timo. The officer said ho asked bim what was tho matter, and the man said he bad broken his leg. Thereupon Cleary oflierod to Liolp him home, but Jounos positively daclined, stating that if ho left that placo before somo respectablo vitizen oamo along ho would not bo able to prove whero Lo got his injury, and tho eily would cover up the hole that Lad {ripped him, and he could bo deprived of all his witnesses in the suit ho intended brivging against the city for damagos. Tho officor argued with him, but all in vain; and finally, L{gattmg disgustod, lugged Lim to the station, and thore had him christoned by the station-kecpr, 5o that instoad of © Jolly Frank- .l]iu" Jones he became “ Drunk and Disorderly ™ onos, Tho prisoner beamed npon tho Justice, and 8aid ho know the city's little game perfectly. It had bean Plv.ynd upon him twioo bofore. In1873, on St Datricl's day, whilo walking homo a night—uot drunk, but absorbed in_thought—ho Lind stepped in a boloin thosidewalk andinjured himuolf, Whon bio awoke from his swoon, he found himself in the police station. After hig osoapo the following “%; he tried to find tho glnm whoro ho hurt himsclf, but in vam, Somobody had romoved the hole, and con- soquently he bad no foundation for & suit. On “ tho 4th of July tho samo thing had happoned fo him, and bo had agalu soarched for tha scono of his misfortunes. Io had found a place whero the chasm which tripped him ought to have ‘been, since ho romombored a step near by down which ho foll, whilo wrapped in momorles ox- cited by tho dnj ho boen éelobrat~ ing.

Justice Beully responded by delivering his colobrated temporance locture, tho pororation boing ** fined $5 and coste.” Mr, Jones paidthis gum, snd hobbled off up Madison stroot in soarch of tha defactive mdowalls, sadly confident, hovwover, thet it would bo out of Lis power to find what ho was in scorch of, —— A DIVOROE IN DRAMATIO OIROLES.
