Secondly, proof that such a butcher having a stall ina market where he sells meat regularly of his own slaughtering does not become a produce dealer, and amenable to license as such, Dy proot that on two or three occasions he has purchased beef slaughtered elsewhere by others than him- self, and in this instance 1t was ‘Chicago beef.’ ‘This fs all there was decided in the Hoover pace ‘The question whether such a party might ndt be- come a produce dealer under’ any circumstances was not raised or decided. This decision ts no de- parture from the line of decisions which have en inade by the courts of this District. “Yours, ete., ‘M. B. SNELL, “Judze Police Court.” THE JUDGE'S STATEMENT IN COURT TO-DAY. In the Police Court this morning, Suring an in- termission in the proceedings, Judge Shell took occasion to say that the newspapers and some people seem to be very much disturbed about his decision in the cases against the butchers who were before the court a few days Ago, on azcount of the decision in the case, which was uninten- tlonally misrepresented. He sald the legislature in 1872 relieved the butchers from the necessity of taking out licenses, and since that time butchers have been carrying on business without licenses. ‘The law defines a butcher as one whose business it {s to sell meat from market stalls. The question Was did it make a butcher a produce dealer to sell, besides the meat he slaughters himself, meat that he purchased on a few occasions from another dealer. In the case of Mr. Hoover, which was on trial, it was shown that he was an extensive dealer, and on a few occasions he made purchases of meat from others to make up a deficiency in his own stock, and he (the court) did not think this made him a produce dealer. In_ re- lation to the statements as to the decision affect- ing the revenues of che District, it 15 not the busl- ness of @ court to make revenue, but to dispose of cases according to the letter and meaning of the law, and {f more revenue 1s wanted the people will have to go to Congress for relief. Mr. Padgett stated that he did not understand the decison of the court to xo to the extent of deciding that people could not be fined for being unlicensed produce dealers. The court sald that the decision did not go to that extent, and only affected the case before the court at the time. Po OxDER OF ELxs—Justus H. Rathbone, John T Warde, Daniel E. Cahill, Jacob Budd Zebley, Jos. ¥, Potts, Wim. Dickson, ©. W. Leannardo, Frank K. Ward, and Joseph E.

AN OLD MAN’s ASSAULT ON 4 WoMAN.—Pollceman McGreevy, of the first precinet, states that about 9 o'clock “last night he and Officer Berry heard cries of “murder!” in the neighborhood of Mary- land avenue and 43 street. “On arriving at tho place they discovered a younz colored woman, named Julla Rollins,of No. 208 “Willowtree alley,” engaged in a desperate struggle with a gray-haired mah hamed Micheel Sullivan. The woman alleged that the man, who tsa stranger to her, stopped her in the street and tried to drag her ‘into the alley. They were arrested and taken to the sta- tion house. Sullivan is a gray-haired man, and gives hisage as 67 years. When arrested He re- Sisted, and gave the policemen considerable trou- ble in getting him to the station house. He was locked up all night, and taken to the Police Court this morning. Before the court was opened col- lateral was deposited for him, which he forfeited, and did not stand trial. ee ALLEGED CRUELTY TO ANIMALS.—Agent King, of the Humune society, to-day swore out warrants against Joshua Murphy, Albert Fortune and Jno.
