Calucky Women Who Want to Get Rid of Their Husbands, Record of Judgments and New Suits. > Proceedings of the Supreme Court of Hltnois, ———— An Interesting Iowa Case, CHICAGO COURTS. TUE GAGE BROTHERS’ DIFFICULTY. On the 30th day of Decomber Int, the Firat National Dank of Sioux City obtained a judg- mont for $1115.27 against Gago Brothers & Tice, and another for the samo amount against Gago & Nico. On the same dey Alexander A, BcDonnoll also recovered judgment for R557.G4 ‘againet Gago Brothora & Rico, William Coffin ‘obtained judgment for $440.11 againat the same aud Bradford Hancock recov- ered judgment for $669.17 axainst Gago i Executions were issued on all thoso judgments, returned the same day not eatisfed, and the five parties united in d filing a creditors’ bill against tho two firms. J. B, Drako and E, G. Asay wore also made partios, it being alleged that they had some of the as- seta of one or other of the firms. David A. Gago filed a demurror and Ei, G. Asay an answer. The demurter was argued yesteraay morning before Judge Sloore, threo points boing mado by Mr. ¥$ Cage's counsel, ono that tho vill was multifari- ous, boing against differont partioa for different and distinct matters; sec- ond, because tho bill was not fy properly verified, aud third, because the judg- “Or ments were recovered, oxocutions isaned and re- turned, and creditors’ bill filed on tho eamo day, + and that therofore it did not appear but that tho ‘Dill was filed before execution had been issued, Counsel for the croditors urged that a creditors’ } Hill need not bo vorificd ; also, that it was not multifarious, inasmuch aa two of tho arties, George W. Gaxo and John A. Rico, ‘are partics to all the judgments, “As to tho charge that judgments wore recovered, oxecutions issuod, aud bill filed * on tho aamo day, the creditors bill slowod on ita faco that tho’ judgments had beon recovered, and executions fagned and returned unsatistied before the filing of the bilt. ‘Tndgo Moore upheld the position of tho coun- sol for the creditors, excent ns to tho'lnat part of the demurrer. Ho said that tho law did not rec- f ognizo fractions of o day, and that, there- fore, tho recovory, lovy, and filing of tho’ bill might all” be considered rimultancous. Ho did not, howoyer, feel clear on that point, and adjourned tho matter until Fob. 5, when his decision will be givon. Mr. Asay, in his snavor, shows that Gago & Tice becamo ombarrassed in keeping the Grand Paoitic Hotel, and that J, F. Tracy tock ponics- # sion under two chattel mortgages, and that the mortgaged personat property was sub- sequently: gold to J. B. Drake for 120,000, At that timo Gngo & Rico ero indobted to various parties intho sum of >| 0,000, and on the 28th of December, 1874, they nindo an sesignment of all their proporty @ tuhim forthe benofit of their creditors. Mr. Asay says ho now has in cash about $20,197.27, received from d. 23, Drako, anda claim for the remainder, & few sharon of Ixposition stock, and some debts due Gage & Rice. He also holda, a8 Trusteo for Paris, Allon & Co., a dceod from Nice to certain proporty in Riverside, sub- ject to an inctmbrance for 350,000, on tho condi- tion that Paris, Allen & Co. should roleaso M part of their claim against Gago & Rico, This & property, Avay says, was convored to him fairly, without his solicitation, for tho benefit of the firm croditors. WIDENING BTATE STREET. Tho jury in the caso of the City vs. Toboy, for avidessing tho damages for widouing State stroat, from Jackson to Harrison street, returned a vordict of £82,570 for the damages. Tho atreot 8 was widened on tho east side 27 fcot, thus meak- ing it 100 feot in width. * pivonces. Clara Rt. Turnor filod 9 bill in which she says that she was married to Gavin IH.

Special Dianatch ta The Chicage Tribune, DesMuines, Is., Jon. 26.—A law firm in this city, one of tho oldest in the Btate, has set up a new claim under tho law of foraclosuro of mort- gages.

AMUSEMENTS, ‘THE OPERA. ‘Tho first change from tho regular soason an. nouncements was mado Iast evening, “Tho Barber of Sovillo" having beon substituted for “The Marriage of Figaro,” owing to tho indispo- sition of Fiorini, who was to havo taken the part of Figaro. Asit would have been tho first per- formance of Mozart's work by this troupo, and Fiorini’s part {s o very important one, it wos deomed bottor to make a change than to nssumo what must have been 8 very scrious risk, The chango, of course, necosri- tates a rearrangement fur tho rest of tho weok. As royisod, the repertoire will bo as followa: This eveuing, Sonuambula” ; Thursday even- ing, “The Marringo of Figaro,” in placo of “Trovatore”; Friday evening, “ Lobengrin”; Saturday afternoon, “ Faust”; and Saturday evening, ‘Ruy Dias.” The chaugo was not entircly a radical ono, inasmuch 13 it substituted Rossini's Figaro for Mozart's, and tho Count, Don Bartolo, Don Basilio, and other old friends of '* Nozao do Figaro;” reappeared in anew form. The sudienco was o yory light ono, but, a8 tho’ change way not gen- erally known until night, it could hardly bo st- tributed to that fact. It fy many n year sinco '!

Del Puente awakened quite n ripplo of enthusiasm with hia singing of the ' Facto. turh Aria,” and De Bassin’s remarkably floxiblo Voice found ample opportunities in Ros- sini’s elegant and claborate _fiorituro.

THE COMING WAR, INDICATIONS OF 118 ADYL Tt is the opinion of the moet exprrienced rail- road men in the city that tho war which is now xoing on between tho various raiiroa} cumpanion east of this city will senume such proportions aa to throw all former railroad wars in the shade, ‘The fighting dove at present ta but the shire mishing preceding the great battle which will ba delayed until the Managers’ and Comtiesioners? meeting to be held in New York on the 3d of February. Somo bave hopes that that mecting may yet succeed in restoring peace and harmo- ny. Areconciliation at this juucture, howavor, is almost impossible, and nothing lees than a miracle csn harmonize tho conflictng interesta of tho various roads. Heretofore the combined roads were fighting the alimora & Ohio, undor tho generalsbip of the Pennylvae nia Hailroad Company, but now the tables aro entirely turned, aud all the roads ara fighting the Pennsylvania Railroad, Vanderbilt and the other New York managers hava como to the conclision that they Lave Ices te fear from tho Baltimore & Ohio than from the Vennsylyania Company, aud that to insist any longer on the observance of the terms of tho Saratoga agreo- ment would be certain ruin to New Yors and its commercial interests. Hence, the prexent war has been beguy, and there is no doubt that it will bo waged until all tho roads are completely prov trated, and nuable to goon any longer, ‘there is, however, a wide-spread fecling tuat both New York and Chicago will gain mueb by this tight. Much eurpriso hay beon expreesed by inany railroad men and merchants that ao wily a mane agers Vanderbilt could allow himsclf to bo Inred into the Saratoga combination, which was generally believed to be detrimental to the in terests of New York by its leading merelante, But Vanderbiit was not as much of a fvol os lie was generally believed tobe. MMe undoubtedly {otned the agreement to keep off the war which has now broken out, until tho New York Central liad completed its four-track line from New York to Buffalo, At tho time when the combina- tion waa formed the New York Central wa4 not ready fora tight with so powerful a road as tho Pennsylvauia, which had wlso the goo:will of the Erie from the fact of itn having o Dresi- dent closely allicd to and formerly an oficer of the Pennsylvania Railroad. ‘The New York Cen- tral has now four tracks for its entire Jength from New York to Buffalo, and is ina condition to fight any of its rivals. Mr, Vandeabiit nu- doudtedly precipitated this tight, to test the ca- pacity of his new venture. ‘Tiere is but little doubt that tho New York Contral can carry freight now lower than any other road. two of éhe tracks boing exclusively used for passenger trafic and two for freight trafic. Hence the road fg capable of carrying six times the amount of freight of ‘any other, becauao it catmot be blocked up or emliare rassed by passenger tains, and is able to take tte freight through in less than half the time cousumed by other roads, Tho Pounsyl vania Railroad Company ia now really ius tight place ; harassed on tho south by tho wealthy Baltimore & Ohio, and checkmated on the north by the four-tracked Now York Central with its easy grades. It realizes ita danger, and lenco tho frantic eiforta its managers’ have been making to keep the Saratoga combination alive.
