THE BURSTED BEE-ILVE. Sydney Myers? Caso Again Postponed Owing to the Abscnco of Judge Up- ton, of Wheaton. The Hon, Clark W. Upton, one of the trinity of Judges who preside over the destl- nies of the Du Pare County Circuit Court, fulled to connect yesterday for some reason or other, and the case of the People ys. Syd- ney Myery—rotunid Iittle. Sydney, whilom Tresident of the Bee-Ilive Bank, and in- dicted some months ago for embezzlement— was once inore postponed. Assistant State’s- Attorney Weber, who'went out to Wheaton to represent the people, was naturally some what disappointed, but Mr, Swett, who ap- peared for the absent Sydney, us well as Mrs, Myers, who accompanied hin, didn’t appear to bo greatly disconcerted or put out at the Inteyt turn which affairs had taken. Yesterday was tho first day of this term of court, but the presiding Judge happened to be Judge Kellum, instead of Judge Unton, who, it had been supposed, would have been. present to open the term ond go on with the business, ‘The Myers case stoud on a motion to quash the indictment vending before the Inatennmmed Judge, The motion was argued at tho September term, and was to have been decided terday,—the first day of tho March term. ‘Myers was to linve been pres- ent, and, in case the motion to quash were overruled, the case was to stand ready for trial at sone thne—then to be set—during the present term, It transpired that Judge Up- ton was ot Genova, holding court there, and, as Judge Kellum knew, noth- ing about the case, and had not heard the arguments on the motion to quash, there was simply nothing todo but defer 1g until such the as Judge Upton elther for- warded a written opinion or enine to decide ithhnself In person.

The absence of the little Sydney naturally gave rise to the Inference that, should the motion to quash fall to the ground, Mr. Swett was prepared ° 10 MAKE A MOTION foracontinuance. The case has dragged along now until very few people out. side of the lawyers interested in. tt pretend to remeinber just how often t has been delayed. Myers is out in tho wilds of Colorado,—possibly snowed up,—and If Mr, Swett had an afidavit for the continuance, it would probably huveset forth the grentand Snpalling distress of mind under whieh his client was laboring at his inability to secure a ready trial, with a closing sugxes- tlon thnt the case go over tntil the next term,—six inonths Inter. If Mr. Swett had such on afildavit he was ‘too shrewd to ad- mit it when Tue Tripunxr reporter asked to see lt, and warded off all inquiries in his usually good-natured way. It is quite likely that an endeayor will be mado toxlny to se- cure Judge Upton's decision in writing and take Itto Wheaton, ‘Che case will then be in shape to try, provided the deciston over- rules the motion to quash, and the anticipated motion for a continuance falls to go through.
