A short time before he was taken» into custody for the alleged abduction of a girl, and the charge is underatood to bo still pending against him. Chartes, on the other hand, bad always borne a good character, and was recognized as a man of integrity. The partnership was formed fn Auguat, 18%, ond the sccond story of the building No. 183 Madison street, near Fifth avenuc, was ronted, and a stock of goods procured thronzh the instrumentality of Charles, who had excellent credit in New York and cisewhere. Each had a. half-interest, though Joseph put in $10,000, ant Charles onty 82 the Jattcr’s atonaiae and Analifieablons offactting the difference, In addition to the amount invested, Joseph had $10,000 {n bank, on which he could draw {f necessity required it. Quite a trade was worked up through Charles’ exertions, and tho firm prospered; but he be- came dissatisiicd with Josepti's aseociations and evil tendencies, and just before his departurcto New York, about a month ago, to purchase Rouds, spoke to htm about dissolving the part- nership, Hoa proposed to sell out, but Joseph declined to accept the offer,—promising, how- ever, to hunt up some one to buy his interest during Charles’ absence. While in New York Charles received — letters from Joseph giving accounta of the cash and tt sales, and urging him to buy very Mberally, The Rrossest deception was prac- tieed by Joseph. Where the credit sales had been ), the figure “1 was put before the threes and where tho cash sales represented £03 an “#01 was added. In consequence, belleving the business was flourishing, Charles negotiated for 5,000 worth of various articles, and were shipped as soon as they could be packed, Jt appears that os soon ns Charics ett the city Joseph set about putting {nto ope- ration ‘A PLAN POR ROMBING AND RUINING MIND, ‘When a package of goods was received, without the knowledge of the bookkeeper and clerks,— generally carly in the morning before they reached the store,—be would sena it out and sell the articles for whatever ho could get.

No one employed by him knew what he had been dolug. Every- thing was conducted socretly, To account for his absence, be sald he was going to Milwaukee, Ithas since been sscertaincd that he went to Detroit, and thence into Canada. The first In- timation Charles had of doscph's leaving was the receipt of a telegram requesting him to cone hone at once. ile took the first train, and, upon his arrival, found the store in the possession of the parties who held tho judgment notes. For threo daya he has been trying to find out how he stands, but fa still in the durk, owing to the fact that goods have been ordered from partles without his knowledge, and their bills have not yet come to hand. The liabilities, os far os he knows, amount te between $18,000 and $20,000, and the assets to nearly $8,500. He loses all he has in the world, and ecems to fear that bis brother's conduct will reflect upon him. Why do- seph should . act thus he cannot imopine, for he could have drawn out honestly about as much money as he took away with him,—815,000. Charics attributes Joseph's conduct to Innate wickedness; he couldn't resist the temptation to do evil. The creditors, who live malnly fa New York, have been notified of the conditlon of affairs, and the business of the firm will be wound up us soon as possible. Charics will then devote hts time to ecarching for his unnatural brother, and, (ft he finds him, will do al) in his power to brin; him to justice.

But the county fuoctionarica did not make an appear- suce, and the expected dispute did not come off. THE CITE-taLL. All the members of the City Committee on Public Buildings, with, perhaps, the exception of Ald, Lawler, arc opposed to piling the city's portion of the foundation of the Coust-Huuse. Ald. Cook, who is a practical builder, has given the followiug explanation of his position: The piles which were driven fur the county's portion were wedge-shaped, The flrut tow went down all right, but the piles which were driven later forced, uPh from three to seven fect, the piles which had been Uriven previously. ‘The clay could not be comm. pressed much, aud, of course, had to come up, und in moviug upwards it caught hold of the sides of the piles. which are larger at the top been made, for the reason that ho has not been with the Committec to see, and proposes to du some Hyely kicking. ‘The next Grand Jury will bo tmpaneted Sept. 8 tis the intention of tha Assistant State's Caranate to bring before tat body cumplaint agalnst tho 500 “shysters who are practicing iu the several courts without Hcense. it isn anisdemcanor for any one to practice who has no Ucense, and is punishable with 2 fucor im- priscnment, or both, and if Mr. Weber succeeds jn Teleguting these blisters back to their proper laces through atigorus prosecution he will ve done a great public service, The favorite amusement of Pike, tha mur derer of Jones, isto try to persuade ils azao- elates {n Jail that hols sane.
