2 THE CHICAGO . DAILY TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, JUNE 21, 1874. 5 THE COURT-HOUSE. COonference Between the Two Committees on Public Buildings. They Are Unanimously in Favor of Coing Ahead, ind All Think the City Will Be Able 1o Raise the Money. Ald. Bailey Thinks the Stone Will Cost ; $2,800,000. But Others Think the Whole Building Will Cost Less. No Conclusion Reached. A joint meeting of tho Building Committecs of the Board of County Commissioners and the Common Couucil was held yesterday afternoon in the Committee room of tbe former body at the Criminal Court building. There were pres- ent: Connty Commisioners Lonergan, in the Chair, Johneon, snd Herting, and Ald. Bailey, Caoy, Heath, and Drandl. A BESOLTTION passed by the County Commissioners was read recommerding the conferenco between the Building Committees of the Board and Council for the purpote of decidiog upon the plans of {10 new Court-House, to be erected assoon as the financial condition of both City and County Gov- ernments should warrant 1t, tle building to bo s plain, substantial one, 2 not to cost mure than £2,500,000 ; the payment of architects notto ex- ceed 4 per cent on the cost, and the contractors before beginning tho work to enterinto bonds of £250,000. Commissioner Johnson thought the Common Couneil would have to contirm the action of the Doard before anything could be done. Ald. Bailey cailed for tho reading of tha con- tract of Aug. 28, 1872, between the city and ilio county, apon the joitt occupancy of the Publie Bquare, which wasdone by Col. Miles. TIE FINANGIAL CONDITION. Ald. Bailey thought tbat tha fipancial ques- tien ougbt to be discussed. The Chairman said that the Dosrd thought that it was doubtful ‘whotber the Council thought that Lhey wero in a financisl position 10 proceed with the work. Ho had beard, however. that they had a3 large amonnt to the credit of their bmlding fand. Ald. Bailey stated that it amonuted to $664,0005 but all of this but $113,000 had been usod for othier purpogos. The Chsirman: ehowod that the county was fully prepared to procced witheho work. ; Ald. Coey supposed that the city could raise ber share of the frst year's expeoses Wwithout any trouols, He thonght there was no prospect of the aty's getting behing for at least 2 couple of years. The Chairman called attention to the fact that the city wae about to eell = quantity of roal es- tate. Ald. Cocy thought that it would tako st least four ycars 10 finieh the building. BAILET'S VIEWS. - Ald. Dailey rend the following 28 his views upon the sabject: Tt weuld arpear, from consultation with experionce architeets, that tho plans of building of such magni tude =8 the pruposed Cify-Hall and Court-House will occury a period of three months at lesst to bring bem 10 ths. perfection required to form the proner .basis of a contract, and very probably four months may be required before all parties interested shall Lisve exsmined mnd approved of the plans when per- frcted, Therefore it 3% not norearomable to my thut, tking Info account the preliminary delays in arreng- pefecting the concract with the zelected archi- chiterte. the plans and _rrecifications cannot ¥ in condition to ndverties the different con- on or befoze the 1st dny of Drcember next. <t allowing a period of at least sixfy dayx for the ommiractors to cetimate npon the different works ad~ Yertined, it s 8afe to presume that with all reazonable axpedition the leading portions of tke work cannot be in the hands of contrzctors bcfore the Ist of Frtrnary, 1875, zud probably ot before the It day of 3zarch cf the same year. allowing » month for the de- cisins and delays, which wonld reem to_ be inevitable in tranFachons cf such jmportance, Thus, by the im- mediate elertion of sn architect or arvhitects, wa will Tot be in a parition to Eave the work started before the ‘commmencement of the brilding seaxon of 1575, Howerer, it Is practizalle to execute the excavation and the brilding of the lower conmmes and concrete orks during the fall of the present vesr, leaving the fiml developments of the plens=nd details of the ‘euperstructure o ba worked ont during the progrees of 1ch work, and that pertion in the most that it wonld be sdsisable tn attempt during the present rearom, bnt it wonld afford_tha much-needed employment to our snfferng laboring clarses. Tt will thus be readily perceived that the outride 1imit of expenditure incurred by fhe counts and city between the present time and thie 1t day of July, 187 silowing that the fonndation will be completed by th: time, eatnot exceed $300.000. or £170,000 for each cor- poration. Thnis sum wowld be amply mufficient to Ccover not only {he cost of work which could be exe- coted st the time, but a'so architectural services and other incidental exyenses. CAX WE STAYD 1T? The question now arises : Arc thecity and county in position to bear the expenditure ahove indicated, or £150,070 each, in_the Feriod intervening between ‘the Present time and the 1st day of July next? On the part of the county, there wonld scem to be no quer- tion of financizl competence to meet the proposed outla; On tbe part of the clty there is t the credit of the City-Hall fund, or Canal Redemption fund, orizinally intended for {hia purpose, the mum of $634,000, or thereabonte, with actual balance in hand of sud fund smountinz fo §235,000, the rumaining $430,000 being at resent expended for other purpores, but which can ge rentaced in time to mect the expenditnre reanired in the superstricture of the city's portimn of the build- ing, ne a perind of st least two Years must elapeo be- Tore it can be oxpended om the Work in question. At 1ho expiration of {hat time it is fair to calenlate that the city will be in s condition 1o realize by the sale of property a sufficient sum fo complete the structuro wWithout extra taxation, TWhilst on the subject, and referring te {he resolu- Knnn of Commissioner Ashton which embody many of 8 be fai ra TNTERSAL ARRANGENINTS af the proposed structare, I wonld aleo beg leave to nagest thet the orfminal instrnctions issued to com- peting architects Tast year demanding a buflding com- prising a basement and_sub-celbor. snd three storles, e departed from, and the selected architact ar archi. 1ects be roquired fo project x fonr.stary structure witn Lasement, o be used only for heating and ventilating purposes. My reasons for this suggestion are, first, {he inutility of a hasement-story of twelve or fourteen. Zeot high for the purposes of public offices of any de- scription, as the ventilation cannot be made perfect, 0d the example of the old Conri-House has abun- dantly demonktrated that for heating and ventilating purzores s eub-cellar, badly drained as it must be, and slmost deprived of fresh alr circulation, ean- nct be made effective, & fact to which onr poisoned oflicials in the old_tookery can bear sbun- t icstimony, Let us, therefors, accept the lesson of their 83 experience, and provide fresh-warmed air inthe new structure. TIE TOTAL COET. Tt wonld nleo be well to veconwider that portion of {ho Comm'astonern’ resolution providing for an outlay of £2,500,000, s the fact is well cetablished by the for- aner competition that the cublc contents will be 8,000, 000 feet. and, computing thes usnal cxpenditure of S5 eonts per faot, wo arrive at a total expenditurs of £2,800.000. So that the limit of exponditure might be ‘mads $.000.00, Bearing all the circnmetances in mind, T sm strong. 1y of apinion that further procraatination would be of 1ite or no service to the Jatercsts and pride of onr city and county, and that we should at once, for their honar and eredit, preceed fo the election of architects, 20d. ns roon thereaffer as practicable, commence the buildiog of the City-Hall snd Court-Haure. Ald. Coev objectea to the reading of tho speech, as he felt very sleepy, and Ald. Bailev slooped when the document wae only half finished. Ald. Cocy thought that with the pres- ent Jow prices of building materials and Isbor 2 vers flue building could be crected for £2.500,000, Tho Chair stated that in a conversation with one Mr. Page, an architect, that gentlemsn had ststed that anexcellent and quite suitable build- 1o could be pat p for 1,000,000, Commisgioner Johnnoo stated that all that was wanted was the concurrence of the Common Coaneil with their resolntion. Ald. Bailey eaid that thero were many points tobe considered which the resolution of the C‘T&mismnam did not cover. 1d. Coer enid it was nocersary to decido just bow much the building ought to cost. inn IN FATOR OF GOING oOX. Commissioner Thompson thought that, if the Comruittee reported to tho Conneil in favor of the Commi ners’ resolutions, they wonld soon Fre what was to be done, and act accordingly. He thought that it would be well to take a voto =t ouce as to the feeling of the meeting io favor or against going ob with the building. He made 5 motion accordingly, which showed that the sentiment of tho meeting w8 unanimously in favor of going on with the building. _ Ald. Bailev said that the next question to be discussed he kind of report to- be made to gl rerpective bodies they rppresented. Commissioner Johnson sifd that ho was not in 7/ favor of the mectiogs rocommonding any archi- tect. This would have to be an after considera- tion. Ald. Heath thought the measures to go on with the the structure. meeting should take business of building ARCRITECT B PAY. 3 Ald. Bailey suggested that the compensation of the architect b fixod at a certaia amount. By puving a percentage a direct bribs was offered the architect 1o mako the erection of the etruc- {uire coet as much a3 possible. After a geperal converration upon the matter the meeting rdjonined subject to the call of the Cluairman of the respective Committees. CHICAGS & PACIFIC ROAD. The Hearing of the Motion for an In- §unction Again Postponed. The argument on the motion to extend the in- junction restraining the Chicago & Pacific Rail- road Company from using their tracks on South- port avenuo, inside the city limits, was to have been mado before Judge Farwell yesterday, but was not for the roason meutioned below. The attendance of property-holders interested was very large, the court-room boing. crowded. Alr. Edward Jussen and Mr. Hutchmson represented the plaintiffs, and Mr. William O. Goudy ap- peared on behal? of tho corporation. * 3. Jussen asked leave to filo AN AMENDED DILL, setting forth the same allegatious as the originsl one, but more specifically. Mr. Goudy did ot question his right to filo it, but he thought ho bad s right to read it and the other papers before going to argument. Alr. Jussen desired to know exactly the motion which was to be considerod, since he was mot present when it was made. Mr, Goudy repliod that no injunction hadbeen granted, eimply & restraining order, preliminary {0 & motion for au injunction. 3r. Jussen moved for an injunction to restrain thae read from completing the track, aud from operating it in any manner whatever. The mo- tion was based upon the bill and affidavits, Mr. Goundy was not prepared to argue it befors examining the documents, _ No prejudice could follow to the parties complainant by a doferment of afew days. He was hound to take up the motion under the onginal bill, and bad applied $0 Mr. Clsde (whohiad beea counsel) three times 1o learn what his proposed amendments wera, but had been informed that he was no longer connected with tho case. Alr. Jussen bad no doubt that the defondants wore perfectly willing to continue the case in- definitely. Butif it were continued. his clionts desired that conditions be attached that NO FURTRER DAMAGE should be incurred by them—that the Company Dbe not permitted to ron trains on the road i the meantime, or to complete the track. Ha claimed that the Company had taken poescssion of tha streets, and damaged adjocent property-owners without authority of law, and in violation of the Constitution of the State. If his position were correct. the corporation sbould not be permitted 10 do more damage, and make the track more permanent than it was. H THE AMENDED BILL. The Court inquired if the amended bill charged the facts 28 alleged in the original bill. Mr. Jussen replied that it did not. Tt set out the building of the track, the intention of tha Company to_operate it, and, a little more fully, the dnmage done adjacent property-owners, es- pecially to the complainant, Willinm Lang. The sfiidarits supported the allogatious so far as tho damages ware concorned. There was no point whieh could pot be as_well argued undor the amended as under the original bill. Mr. Goudy said bo was engaged in praparing a written argument to be eabmitted to Judge Drur=mond Monday, and therefore it would be inccie enient for himto go oo with the argu- ment then: and he eonceived that he had the Tight to have the matter postponed until he had alook at the papers. ~He might underatand them differently from Mr. Jussen. and was enti- tled to the exerciss of his judgment upoa them. Besides, he had 3 right to answer the bill, if the facts were euch as could be contradicted. He mado no anewer to the other one. Mr. Jussen said the nmended bill was the same; if s0. why amend it? The Companv did npot proposs to ure the tracks, but to put them on a level with ihe strect: ond he conld not see how anybody could be injured by doing that. ‘The Court did not supposo material damage would result to any one by leiting the matter stand over a few davs, provided the defendants did not use the track which was down. bat would certainly not be used until the pendine litign- tion was over. Tho proposition appesred to bo to . TUT THE TRACK IN ORDER, and thie, he thought, wonld not be an injury to the cropertr-owners. Thev, lowever, should ot be allawed to uea it until the motion was decided. He would allow the motion to be made upon tae original bill, but, if mwade under the sinended bill, the defendant's counsel should bave an opportunits to examine it. Mr. Jussen replicd that the remson why he asked for an enlargement of the injunction or prohivitory order was (if the complainsnts had anv rights at all to come into court and seek ro- Tief), vi:atthe defendant had taken posression of the sfraot and consirueted the track, inflicting damngo txpon adjacent propertr-owners withont making fhiem any componsation or provision for it. Hence. he claimed, if the corporation wero allewed to finish up their work, it would be suf- fered to do an illegal act. Mr. Goud v desired to know how the property- ovwners would be injured by putting the track in proper conditiod. Mr- Jusgen rejoined that the Company had no right to lay the track under the ordivance, it bo- ing unconstitutionsl. COXNDITION OF THE STREET. The Court remarked that that would come up on theargument. The question now was who swould be injured by putting off the argument and preventing the Company from adjusting the track as it should be adjusted. Was thero ob- Jection to making thostréet passable for teams ? 3r. Jussen thousrht that deponded upon the decision of the Court n;:on the question of the wuncoostitutionality of the ordinance. The prop- erty ownera wonld ben injured to the extent of giving creditto the Company, and they did not know whether it was solvent or not. The Court eaid the question was an important one for the public, who would be annoyed if ihe street were imparrable. Mr. Jussen thought tho Company would not lose its franchise if the track were left as it was. He objected to anything more being donetowsard making it permanent. Mr. Goudy urged that the proposed work was tobo dome for the convenience of the people. The crossings were passable now ; but the track must be sunk, and put on a level with the street, 8o as mot to be an obatruction. The outire traveling community was interested more than Mr. Jussen end bis clients. Tho remark of the counsel about indefinite postpone- ment was gratuitons and uncalled for. The Company wiched to avoid unneces- sary irritation to the people, proposing to treat them fairly, and, if they wero cotitled to damages, to pay them. By not putling tho track in order, the Company was_trespassing on the demands and orders of the Board of Public Works, and wero Dot treating the community rightly. No ono would bo hurt, and, if his clients had not the constitutional right 10 occupy the street, nothing would be gained by & dalay. The Court might make an order that the road should not be ueed. Mr. Jusren contended that, by so doing, the Court aesnmed that the Company had s right to occupy the street. NOT AT ALL. The Court remarked that putting the track in order would not cut off the rights of the com- plainant, and_that the public should not be in- jured by ondangering life. Should nothing be done to take away the linbility of danger to the public? Mr. Hutchinron eaid the track ought to ba left 1in such &_coudition that it could be ensily re- moved. It was a rreat damazo to the property- holders as it was, the ties lying on tho top of the ground, and the rails simply spiked on: and it was also a damage to the public at large, and the sooner it was removed the better for all con- cerned. The Court did not think the Company would removoe the track unless ohliged to do it. JMr. Hutchingon queried whether, baving commenced an unconstitutional act, thay should be allowed to complete it. He was willing coun- sel shonld have time to read tho papers, provided the Company would stop = whers it was, yet belicved the peoplo wonld be justified in taking up the track and removing it to ohe wide. where it would not interfere with tra 1f allowed to go on and compteto tho track the Company would, perhaps, have greater equitics than now. He then presented a peti- tion, signea by fifty or Eixty of the injured property-owners, ssking to be made parties and complainants in tho case. ‘The Court received it, and Alr. Goudy entered bis objection. Mr. Lackner stated that herepresented several of the lot-owners, and asked for a preliminary injunction similar to the one requested by Mr. Jussen. He would take up the argument on the day fixed. ter somo further discussion as to the time, Tuesday next was fixed npon by the Court for hoaring the views of the attorneys. POLICE JUSTICES. Some Idea of the Work They Per- . form, Applications for Disorderly Warrants Saturday. How Creditors Manage to Squeeze Their Debtors. Troubles with Policemen. The week just closed bas been fraught with the usual labor in the Police Courts. The Sonth Side, over which N. B. Boyden prosides, has had about 375 offenders before it; tho West Sido, from where Daniel Scully dispensos justice, 410 ; apd the North Side, under the judicial eye of H. Kaufmann, 100. Very few of our people appre- ciate THE ONEROUS DUTIES imposed upon the Police Justices. Their trials and tribulations are numerous, and can only be known by those who frequent these courts. Tho importance of the Police Courts scems to bave been overlooked, and when it is known that the city owes much of the perceptible improvement of the morals of its now rapidly-incransing population to the influence that the Justices wield over the many offenders who, for petty misdemoanors a8 well as criminal offenses, are daily brought befora them, then, and then only, can their importance be fully realized. AS A MORAL AGENCY, the Polico Court should compare favorably with otber imstitutions; its opportunities for ref- ormation are infinitely greater than is generally presumed, srising out of the multitudinous cases bronght before it. A person to dispente justico to tho class of offenders who follow the lower current of vice that eventually leads the offend- or to commit soma criminal act should be a man of talent and discrimination ; a man of charac- ter, judgment, and logal ability. Talont, that ho may bo able to discriminate between men, snd thereby docide the punishment to be inflicted ; character, that he mav bs distinctly marked 28 3 gentleman of unblemished and high repn- tation ; jndrment, that he may bave the power of deciding for the good of tho prisoner as woll as the citv ; and legal ability, that he may havo the faculty of mind to render all decisions in ac- cordance with the legal authority with which ke is invested. He should al=0 be posseszed of A CHARITARLE AND PATIENT DISTOSITION, in order that ho may look with charity upon the trembling prisoner at the bar, and examiueinto the merits of tho case with pationce. A kind and generons word freTucntly has a moro bene- ficial influence upon the evil-doer than extrema punishment. The most hardened crimi- nal is sasceptiblo and pliant in the hands of the right man. With men of this stamp the Polico Conrts would become valuable moral agencies, nnd be more efficient a8 & means of reducing tho crimes and criminals of all our larger citics. Every man, woman, and child who may have some ill-will against their neighbor hastens with a'l speed to the Justice, expecting_ that the city will at once tako the matter in hand, redress their wrong, and punish the agzressor. “UFON DEMANDING & WARRANT for the arrest of the offender. and meoting with a refusal, npon the grounds that the Dolica Court is 'only for the purpose of disnosing of criminal cffsnders, and wviolaiions of city ordi- Dancee ete.. the applicant is very indiznant, and thinks it strarge that his or her personal griev- ances canmot receive atzention, and wondors what Tolice Courts and Justices aro for Saturdays, & perfect army of grumblers put in an appearance, and will perfure themealves for the rurrose of vro- curinz the arrest of fome ono againat whom tho complaining party may have fome old zrudge to retile. and, by causing an arrest on that day, have the oxtreme pleasure and gratification of witnessing #ome poor wretch locked up over Snnday. and Monday morning, when the case is called, the complaining witness fails to put ia sn appearance ; tho prisoner taereupon is ais- charged for the want ol prosszntion. and leaves the presence of the Court hurling vile, bat snp- ressed, epithats throuzh clenched teoth at the nstice, blaming him for the arrest. TO REMEDY TIT:S INFOSITION, the different Justices hava caused toba posted, in & conpicnons place in their conrt-rooms, cards penring the words “No disorderly war- rants issued on Saturdav.” Notwithstanding this, they are besicged by thess plasucs, untll forbearance almost censes to be a virtue. ANOTIER FOURCE OF ANTOTANCE exists, by the frequent application of a creditor, asking for 8 warrant on tho charge of assanli, rrowing out of the fact that some person owing him 23 or &4 bna. when dnnned in an insnlting manuer for the amount of the debt, resented tho insult bty pummeling the collector who presents the acconnt. The warrant is issued; the party commtting the assenlt arrested. brought beforo the Justice, and bail furnished. and a certain day set for the hearing of the complaint. Bofora that @av rolls aronnd the creditor iaterviews the ar- rosted party and informs him if ho will pay the amount of his claim he will not appear against him : the 22 are paid ; the ereditor is_satisfied ¢ the case is called on tho day appointed ; and, no ono appesring for the prosecntion. the prironer is discharged, snd the city is out about 26—the cost of every warrant issued— to enshle rome peannt-dealer to collect a httle bill. The Jusntico docs his ntmost to correct this abnse. but meets with poor success. ASD BITLL ANOTHER SOURCE OF ANNOYANCE exists, growing out of the determined efforts of the officers of tho police force to pnnish every offender they may chanco to arrest. There sre wany cascs whero the officer makes an arrest of an offender for some_littlo misdemeanor, and, before the Justice, in tho exnmination, some extennating cireumstances connected with the caso presents itself, and the offender is dircharged. The officer thinks his word is donbted, and the word of a vagrant has more weight with the Court than his, and ro in- forms the Judge. This misconstruction of the canse of the diemiseal of the prisoner needs to be explained in order to convince the officer that his statement was believed, but the evidenco nroved to the Justice that the nrisoner, who, perhaps was just from the Bridewell, desired to reform, but the officer. ever on the alert to arrest a suspi- cious character, had brought him in for the rea- gon that he had been in the House of Correction and beforo. going there had a general bad roputation, but since baving served his time, tnd Totarned to the city, all that conld be produced, was that tho Eriecnar had been arrested on the street at a Inta onr of the night. This was no offense; *‘givo the boy a chance, and not push bim to the wall” says the Juatice. The officer with a peowl on his faco, is evidently direatisfied, and is ill-mannerod enough to exhibit his ontent at the decision of the Court by arenming- etber real or oth- ervise is immaterinl—en injured appearance, and remains surly and uncommunicative, until, for somo arrest in which he bhas scted nobly. he receives a woll merited * puff ” through the pub- lic prints. THE PITYSICAL LATOR of a Police Justico is far greater thap many sup- poso. They conveno their conrts at the early hour of 8o'clock in the morning, and con- tinue in sessionup to 1and 2 o'clock in the afternoon, and then are obliged to adjourn from total exhaustion, and, to accomplieh this, it is often necessary to continue many cases for hearing to some future day, holding the pris- oner for his appearance undor bonds, that, fro- quently, the prisoncr is unsble to gtve. and. as a result, be is confined ina cell in the station- honse, and thereby the city 18_placed under an additional oxpense of furnishing nourishment during the period of incsrcoration. To remedy this abuse, thoro sbould be an sfter- noonseseion. Aftertheadjournmect of conrt.the JTnstico has 2 few momonta only in which to tako his noon lunch, which every business and labor- ing man requires after five or six hours of hard labor during the forencon. From s frugal re- past ho_goes to his private office with the intent of looking after his perronal business; thoro he is followed by city cases, applications from headquarters and the stations for filing com- plaints, warrants for criminals, and violation of the city ordinances. Private intercsts must bo dropved and city business attended to, thereby absorbing his entire time 1 municipel affairs, which is proper. NTGHT COMES OX. With wearied steps he turns his face home- ward, there to sesk relief from _tho cares and turmoil of the dsy's labor within the familv circle. Befors he has vearcely eeated himself, & messago i8 received that some one of the prisoners, whose caso was continued, bas at last found a friend who is willing to be- come his bondsman; back he goes to receive bail. At midmight’ s door-bell is violently rung ; behastens to answer the slarm; is in- formed that John Bmith and others have been arrested and taken to the ststion, and his pres- ence is demanded to raceive their bail; and thus it is day in and day out. Holidays aro unknown to a Police Justice. Wheu all places of businees are closed, and the aty is dresecd in gala attire, and tho people sro taking ad- vaotago of a_ holidny which is lezally givon them, tho Justico is on the bench hard at work. \Whother the holiday of celebration and recroation bo a legal one or not ;. bis pourt must b convened every day in the year, except the Sabbath, and, Monday following that, he makes up the loss of that ono dayin the woek by baving double #ae usual_numbers of offenders to disposa of, who are guilty of oil tho crimes known in the anpals in the criminal, from mur- der, larceny, and burglary, down o tho petty misdemenuor of the incbriato. g These annayances wiuch surround thd Polico Justices are only A FEW OUT OF MAXY, which, with the vile association be comes in con- tact with, owing to the class of offenders, who are, gencrally speaking, the vilest of the vilo, are suflicient to contaminate and demoralize & Judge as wise as Solomon, and as incorruptible ia, to say nothing of the loss of health, which is suro fo follow after servico of a fow years in such placos, where tho fumes of whisky and tobncco mekio the smell of the room intulor- able; and the air, foul, poisonous, and opoies- sive, as it is, would soon reduce the most robust to an emaciated consumptive. To realize theso facts, ons has only to visit occasiovally the South and Wost Side Police Courts, to understand to 5 cerisin extent tho importance attached to the position and tho many disagree- ablo dutios attending tiorato. "Plie Police Courts are an important part of the judicial departmont of tho Municipal Govern- ment, and yet it is not onco in six months that AN ALDERMAN can beseen thero. Taey cau have no more idea of tho perplexing duties incumbent upon the Justices than tho readers of the morn- ing papers. Ald. Richardson., ~Cullerton, Schaffner, and Ald. Dixon, tho Presidont of the Couucil, ‘oceasiopslly pat in sn appearance. There are man, it is 8afe to presumo, who have never been inside of a Police Court, and only know tho existence of such courts by appropria- tions they bave voted for the furnishing of the court-rooms in the new station-houres on the Soutls, West, and North Divisions. _—— WHAT AN EXASPERATED ENGLISHWOMAN THINKS OF HER AMERICAN SISTERS. To the Editor of The Chicao Tribune = Sir: A gratuitous, spitefal picce of backbiting appeared in your Sunday’s issue, May 31, 1574, on London women, from a woman eigning her- self * Bortha .Dayne,” As you havo iven pub- licity to the Amorican eide of the question, it is .b:lt justice to allow an-English woman to reply on tho English side of the question. I have waited, hoping this duty would bo undertaken by abler hands. I am surfeited with the oft.re- peated penny-a-liner's bash in American news- papers, of Westminster Abboy, St. Paul’s Catle- dral, British Museum, etc. But B. D. has mixed this stale story with sensational brag, and “rughed where angels fear to tread,” into tho domain of ankles, legs draped in dingy gray stockings, beaaty and taste; why did not B. D. take upher penand beard the lion in his den, when in London? I pneed not trouble myself seriously abont her opinious on questions shie has not mastered, and, judging from ber public utterances, does not yet understand. ¥ X agree with B. D. that the English and Ameri- can women are diseimilar in style. The former people adopt what is practical, eatlior by three months than the latter. Naturo is nlways true to herself, and the English woman has legs and feet adantod to carry her weighty, subscantial body. She is not under the necessity of wearing i ots to ensbls her to pad her legn L Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.” ‘Tho indigenous women have decsyed into ganut shadows when compared with tha Anglo-Saxon women in Eng- land. The Chicago cross-breed is known by har long, cadaverous, rallaw face, flat chest, and nar- row hips, blended with so much falze mode: to subatitute limbs forlegs, and ** stummic] belly. B. D. claims_that there is an ineffable charm of faacination in American women, which is Rub- ject to no formula, and indapeadent of all aual; sis,—clusive! Now, sir, I can analyze B. D.'s problem, which consists in hanghty airs, vaaity, cheok, and that ineffable coaceit that knows no bounds. B. D.'s serinl daintiness of charm means that beaatiful faco which disappears simultaneously with her ability to buy rouge and carmine. The English woman is humane. Sho is not easilv led from the well-known path of daty to her kind to imitato the oxample of Fronch women wn limiting ber ability to mereasa and mnlti- ply the earth. Those English families in Chi- cago who recoived relief the past winter havo threo children to the American families two, who were in roceipt of eimilar relief. It is an incontrovertible fact, that the largest num- ber of children are to be found among the foreign-born povulation. This is a subject worthy the thouglhtful consideration of B. D., and is of much greater importanco to the morals of the community at large than the difference in imitating French and Amorican women, 1n draping their legs in white or dingy gray stock- ings. * Pride zooth before destruction."” There i a wide-sprend disinclination to phri- cal exerctse of any kind amongst American women. Thoir waat of physical dovelopment fits them for a toy rather thana helpmato to their hosbands. Wivea are trusted ss Lousckeevers racher thou wives, in that they are not honored in carrving tho purse containing the wages to purchase the necessaries for household pur- poses.

B. D. did not seo the Chicago style in London, of agentieman (reversing the usual mothod) taking hold of a lady's arm, pushing the lazy one along in the same manner as & policeman conveys his reluctant prisoner to the polico- station. English women have an incomparablo judg- ment in analvzing character; and, if B. D.’s pretenstons were not anpreciatod as she expected in the socioty to which she was zdmit- ted in London, it was her own fault in overesti- mating herself. London sharks are shrewd enough to distinguish between the sight-sesing grecuhorns and tho natives, and they consider the verdaut ones thoir broy, Iam aware * tips” are very common amongst porters, street-Arabs, hotels, and aervants 1n Loarding-housos, in Lon- don. B.D.draws an amusing picture of how the Anglo-Saxon dauglter of the horse-leech Dbled the inexperienced cross-breed by ‘*tips,” becauso they bozst of being live, smart, and cute ; and I am nstonished how the effeto Lon- doner managed to bleed her so effectually by “tips” he would not bave attempted to prac- tice upon a native. I wouldlike to know if the American coin is & circulating medium that B. D. contrares with the Engheh sbilling. T am, yours respeetfully, C. BEAUNONT. Caicaao, June - - Tobacco-Smolke Good for the Tceth. From the London Saturday Review, 1t I8 only fair on tobacco to point out that it is gradually clearing itself from many of the serious charges brought against it. It has bsen frequently and persistently alleged that among other ill_ offects "(besides death and maduess) producad by tobscco, is deatructicn of ths teoth, , it appears, is entirely a mistake.. Instead of tobacco causing tha teeth to decay, it iu the very best thing in the world for them, and those who wish to preserve their teeth should immed- iatoly tako to smoking, if thoy havo not already indulged iv the babit. At s lecture on tecth, Iaughing, and electricity, as connected with the dental surgery, delivered last month in London, by Mr. Thomas DBrown, the lecturer ob- sorved that it was popularly considerea that the practica of smoking doteriorated the teeth. ““There could,” he added, * bo no greater fal- Iacy. It was true that it sometimes discolored the teeth, but it did not caute decsy; onthe con- tratry, it prevonted decay oo account of the dis- inl‘eclmfi g;\werficl of tobacco-smoke.” Tlus leavea tha British Anti-Tobacco Association, and other kindred bodies, in a very disagreeabls po- sition, for it destroys sll cuufi?\;nce in the awful predictions they are in the habit of uttering as to the fato of smokers. If tobacco does not in- jure the teeth, but is, in fact, good for them, porhaps it does not ehorten life, but is even fa- vorable to longevit; —_— A Remedy for Toothache. A correspondent writes to the Scientific Ameri- can that the worst toothache, or neuralgis com- ing from the teeth, may Le speedily and delipht- fully ended by the application of a small bit of clean cotton ssturated in a strong solation of ammonia to the defective tooth. Sometimes the Iate sufferer is prompted to momentary nervous Iaughter by the application, but tho pain has dis- sppeared, LOUISA TALFREY. The Case Again Taken Up by fie Coroner’s Jury. Examination of the Witness Gates. The Coroner Directed to Hunt Up Lawrence. . The Jury Give Stephens a Puff. The Coronet yestarday resumed bhis investiga- tion into the cause of the death of Louies Tal- frey, who diod at No. 262 West Lake Btreet, April 11, under suspicious circumatances, in which Dr. Earll swas involved. The post mortem examination showed that an 1nstrument had been used to produce an abortion. and that, in the opinion of the County Physician, ‘death re- gulted from 1hese injuries. The following are the jury: John B. Foot, David Joworski, Samuel Simons, William Davis, Alifes Standish, Alexander Inuis, George Schus- ter. Thoodore Walstra, I". H. May, and Thomas MeNamara, iy Dr. Heurotin repeated the testimony submitted by him at the previous oxamination to the effect that death was caused by abortion. B FRANCISCO. Deceased was Lersister, and had not lived with Der husband for several years. She was prog- nant, and informed witoess that if medicines did not relieve her she would allow instruments tobe used. Decoased had kept compeny with George A. Gates and George White. She callea ou Dr. Earle on the 6th of April, which wes the day she died, for the purpose of securing some rivgs. Dr. Hahn bad been called. DR. DUANX. Ho bad sworn that he assisted Dr. Henrotin in the post mortem, and that death resulted from an abortion. CARETE DEYANT. 8he had testifled that a man named Gtmr:ta&ahu thought bis last name wus Gates) had called on the deceased several times. Mr. Lawrenco had sertled with Dr. Hahn, and Talfrey had sad Gates was not the cause of her trouble. MARY ROROUGAS, Lived at No. 262 West Lake sireet; had heard deceasnd state that Gates kept company with her. The Coroner stated tiat Blanchard Lawrencs bad left the city immediately after the trouble commenced. GEORGE A. GATES said he was a member of the lumber firm of White & Gates, at No. 246 Fulton etreot; was rcquaint- ed with the deceased prior to her death, and had known her since the -middle of Fobiu: Iast 5 did not know ber previous to her readonce at No. 262 Lako street. Was introduced to her on the strect. and knew her at the house subse- quent to the introduction ; did not keep up the vinits ; the deceased consulted witness concern- ing treacment for s:rofula: did not aek his ad- vica abont pregnancy, and nover stated that sho was preguaat. He ‘called once for a phyeician ; lus name was Earll. Shortly before she died, Earll called and found her vomitiog. She men- tioned Earll’s name, and desired tuat he be called. The powders lay on the stand, sad, from the taste, he presumed they were morphiae or qui- nine ; they tasted very bitter. Witoeas bad called on Earll and stated that a woman at No. 262 West Lake street had re- quested him to call; be replied that Le wonid go after offico honrs. It was the Earll on Halsted strcet, near the corner of Adams, Never saw Earll previous to that time, buc_mot him on tho street after the death of Talfrey. Earll bad said, ‘“This is 3r. Gates, is 1t?" Witness bad responded In the afirmative, and hurried down town, 58 ho was engaged in = litigation witha Mr. Goldie; there was nothing said ia reference io the case; had mever seen any other doctor thers; wus nover acquainted with the naturo of deceased’s complaint. Was slightly mgmimed with ber sister, Miss Francieco; saw ber last after the death of her ewster, Miss Louisa ; bo thonght it was the subsequent Monday moru- ing. Shecalled at bis oftice to seeif witnesy would loap her money to belp pay tho girl's funeral expenees as shie had no mouney. He did not give her any money at that time, buthad sent hier somo in the afteracon; $3) was the amonut kent. He sent it by a boy not employed in Lisoftice. Ho gave tho money aa a loan, ox- pecting 1t would ve paid in the course of time. He was positive that he did not raquire Miss Francisco tosign any paper. He recalled sn evening when walkiog down Lake street Lo met Taltrey and Bryaut coming from the houxs, and walked a shoit distance with them ; they entered a mtore mear the corner of Peoria street, and bo took & Madison-street car aod weut to the North Sido; that was the first time he met Carrie Bryant. ' They did not state whero they wezo going ; did not accompany them to Halszed streot. Jirs Francirco met him but once since ber sister's death. He had seen no gentleman in the house witly deccased. The boy he called was an American District Telegraph boy. She would have to sign the Company's” blank. The papor signed by Francisco was not for him; bhe certainly oxpecied her to pay the monoy back, 05 she was capablo of earniug it. Ho mnever furnisbed the deceased any money, and alwars supposed shio was n sowing girl; was a married man and xnot familiar with the character of the housoa at the time ; did vot hear of it until afterwards. Was not acquainted with a man named Law- rence, but had heard his name mentioned as an acquaintance of the deceased. She had spoken of ‘him, and said he was traveliog for & jewelry bouse. Nono of the inmates of the louse had aver asked him for money to pay the debts of the decensed. Did not know why Dr. Earll was called; bad mo suspicions. He Temembored when Dr. Hahn was ealled in, bat was unable to remember whether deceased claimed to havo gotten the powders from Earll, or he brought them. Thero wers mno labels oo the packages, but sho talked as if they camo from Earll, m some way, bat he could not recollect how. He mever knew that threo rings were loft with Earll as socurity for medical attendanca. All he knesr of it was what 1o read in tho published evidence. The Corouer at this poiut asked the jury their views in regard to Lawrence, and if they had testimony enough to hold anyone he hoped they would doit. After some discussion MR, M'NAMNARA stated that be desired the citizens of Chicago to understand that the jury were ruuning that case, and the man who gaid differently stated what ho knew to be falso. Gates, who bheard thit, was evidontly abzshed by it. The jury adopfed a resolution prior to sdjourning directing the Coroner to secura the services of competent de- tectives and bunt np the man George Lawrenco, which resolution was supplemented’ by the fol- lowing, signed by the jury: Wurneas, Reports have been circulated by certain parties in the public press alleging that thia jury, in this Talfrey casc, were subsarvient to tha wishes of the Coroner entirely; and Warneas, It hasalso besn reported thathe has failed to do his whole duty in the care : Therefore, we, the undersigned jurymen fn the Tal- frey case, do hereby assers that1f the ju.uest was postponed, it was not by the order of tha Coroner, but Dy our wishes combined. Moreover, w think that in this care, as well as in all others in whtich we have known the Coroner to bo en- gaged, be has acted n a trustworthy and gentlemanly manner, and with evident endeavor to fulll all the ‘requirements of the law to the best of his ability. S AR R e The Rate of o Liar’s Palscs From the Cties (. ¥.) Herald, 5 1t has been left to the genixu of the physician to discover a suro way of dotecting at lcast a jusenile prevaricator. The discoverer of this method is s member of the medical profession in Greene, Chenango County, aud his name is Dr. Williams. The other evening several mischioy- ous boys broke into the school-house in that place, built a fire in the same, and were prepar- 1ng for & hilarious time when they discovered that thoBoard of Education wasafter them. Although the school-honse was surronnded before they got wind of the danger, they managed to slip oat of the building unobserved. Some of them Lad been recognized in the building, however, and were brought up before the physician mentioned for examination. Tho first boy put upon the stand ‘‘know nothing sbout the affair,” and asserted his innocence with alf the manifestations of veracity in hia countenance. The Doctor was not satisfisd. He took hold of the boy's wrist and felt his pulse. The pnlsa- tious were unnaturally fast. Looking into the bos's upwavering eye and imperturbablo face, e I * Young man, you are lying! You have not uttered one word of truth about this matter! Your pulso is now running as high as 140, and Do person enjoying good bealth and telling the trath would havo as rapid pulsations as that!" The problem of centuries was solved; the boy acknowledged that he had broken into the school-housa, ~ Although the heart sent no toll-tale blood to tho face, it throbbed its con- ;ri&mpknd where human ingenuity had baen at ault.

Joaquin Miller has written somo pretty good poetry. but it is not common-school poetry by a grest’deal.” —Mr, ‘Winwood Reade, who was tho corre- spondent of the London Times at the Ashanteo war, has just publisbed his history of that cam- paign, which is said to contain somo very ex- traordinary statoments. One of these is that the special dispatch of Sir Garnet fWolsalev to the Government, anpouncing the submission of King Koffee, was forwarded at & great expense, for political purpasos, and in ordor to help Mio- inters at the election. Mr. Reade plainly states that this was a bogus dispatch, and hints that no private correspondence was allowed to bosent by the same stoamor. The book also contains passages reflecting on the comrage of cortain other newspcper correspondents, so strongl that Mr. H. M. Stanley, of the Now York FIeralrz and Mr. Hentz, of the London Standard, in- tonded to take legal proceedings against the writer. Under these circumstances the book bas been withdrawa from circalation, and will be subjected to strict revision before it is reissned. —On the 15th inst. was sold, in Paris, by auction, the first part of the carious Iibrary of 'the late M. Lucien de Rosny, father of the eminent Japavese scholar. It was rich in fine and above all, eccentric bindings, such as in skins of caf, garpet- oolored and baff, crocodile, mole, sesl, fur of the Canadian black wolf, royal tigor, otter, whito bear, solo, and rattlosvake. The legendary human skin bivding is alone wanting in the list. The latter reminds the writer of a_visit he paid som thirty vears ago to the Imperial Library of the Hradschin in g, when he was shown an axcassivoly rare M8., yritten on » emall shect of pecchment by the colebrated John Zizia., Acom~ PARINER wisTE raning o £3in batlness, 2 Twil) snll balf intarest in & coal and wood vard | tail trade established and woll located. side-track will bold tan cars, from 81,00 to 81,500 rom 3 trions.” Eaglish or German profe: S2°TK Bontn Clark st of 151 Noith OKles-sh 8ide.
