This rumer probahly grew out of the fact that steel ralls aro belng substituted for the fron rafla on tho west end'of Lake street. At least TPresident Jones cannot nccount for the cireula- tion of the story In any other way, bio saying that there {s not'n word of truth in it.

[t ft was not presented In that form,he did not think the Court was called upon Lo answer, orought to answer. It was a matter for the jury to look Into. If they determined to recons slder, thcrywuhl ask the Court through thelr foreman for leave to withiraw for the purpuse of reconsidering the indictment, The Court would then exanifne the question whether they had a right to do it, and declde whether they would be allowed to have the fnidictment, It is understood that only four or five of the jurors fuvor n reconsideration, and it s there- ure not Iikely that_the matter will be again licard of [u court.

Tho fact that number of pious gentlemen mado conslderable reputation by going to jail for “crooking ? whisky scems to liave cxelted the ambition of certaln other plous gone tlemen. A miszalded nose for news betrayed the papers of Chicago Into giving consliderable undue prominence to the gentry whose cluime upon inunortalization wero based solely upon gallon etumps proviously devoted to swelling the revenue of the realin, and, noticing the ex- tent of the grratls advertisement, I oveurred to several genticmen—to-wit: those composing the firm of Reutuer & Lendecker, 111 Walton place; Yy Weck, 415 Webster avenuey W, Pope, 180 Wells strect; und Augustus Koch, 74t North Hoyne street—that mayhup their influence infght bo extended through the me- dinm of the press, provided the thlug were properly worked. Bo they began to cvude the tux on whisky. Ostensibly tney were in the business of manufacturing the inocuous vine- gur, but by some ceceutricity of misapphied genlus they secreted whisky siash tubs in the vinegar tanks, argulng that,while they mizht bo found out and sent to Jail, the thing would ho chronleled {n contemporancous history and thelr famo perpetuated while their fimbs were conlined. Saturday afternoon the hirelings of the Gov- ernment pounced down upon ‘them, selzlug vincgar, stills, mashes, men, and all the appur- tenances thereunto belonging, and yesterday the vital elements of the selzure were bronght before Commiesioner tioyne, who held the outfit to bafl in the sum of” $2,000 each.

The amount of money Involved was $19.02, it having been found on the prisoner’s person when arrested, but. the clrcimstances of the caso wero such that it was uncertaln whether the cntire sum hnd been stolen. In addressing the ijury the attorney . urged that his client be found guilty of stealing £15, which would make his casu petit larceny, ami the jury 8o found, whereupon he demnnded *that that amount be turnud over to the prosecuting witness, and the residue, $4.02, to bis cllent, Judge Rogers was very much amused ut tho movement, and now kuows more about how * lawyers” collect thelr fees than ever before, o rofused, how- ever, to wake the order nsked for, and just whera the Inwyer will get his $4.02 was the all- absorbing question, as'he and the prisoncr ner arated,—the one to go to jail and the other In search of a new subject, DOSESTIC INPELICITY.
