6 TARLY AGAIN IN THE TOUS. 8 The Grand Jury See Dittenhvefer Point and Reindict His Client. WHAT RESPECTABLE HOTEL MEN HAVE TO SAY Great Jubilee Among the Liquor Dealers, High and Low, ——— Immediately after the adjournment of the Court of @everal Sessions on Friday afternoon Districts Attor- gey Puelps sent for Meeker, the witness in the case of Andrew Early, charged with “‘soliing Hquor on Sunday,” and took or sent him before the Grand Jary. “What for?” asked the quidnuncs, No one knew. But it has since turned out that the Dittenboefer point, elaborately disclosed in yesterday’s Hxxaio, 40 1mpressed the District Attorney that, in anticipa- ion of Judge Sutherland's decision, he determined to reindict Andrew Early and to have incorporated in tne indictment the language of the statute, “selling liquer on Sunday asa beverage.” nis grants the whole case. 6 indictment falls to the ground, the whole 600 fall with ik Meeker was the witness before and Meeker ts the 55 ROW, HOW THE NEWS SPREAD. Good news as weil us bad news spreads rapidly. fend (he second indictment of Karly was soon poised abroad, He was, of course, notitied, and in great dismay visited his counsel, Judge Dittenhoeter, But 60 far ag tne individual case of this or that man is cerned, there is, of course, but little interest, The principle involved is all, aud thavis, as the HeRALp of yesterday oxplained, thut now the keeper pf any licensed inn, tavern, botel or other person bas a pertect right to seli or give away all the liquor and wine he pleases, 80 long us he does not sell or give it ‘away beverage. In order thas the public might waderstand its prac- fica) bearing, Hxatp reporters were sent to talk With the best grades of dealers, and their reports sbow a remarkable unanimity of feeling. 1n the drat place, al! reputable dealers recoguize the necessity of & good license law. They aro all willing to pay tho te fee and agree to support an equitable law. 3@ they recognize the absurdity of the present statute and join the universal baw baw raised vy Judge Dittenhoefor’s discovery.

AFTER THE BATTLE. The strike of the car driver bas terminated Second, Third and Sixth avenue lines wore yesterday running thelr fall complement of cars. At the differ- ent railroad depots everything was as orderly as if nothing had happened. The police, much to their Gelight, were ail withdrawn and allowed to take a much needed rest. President Thorne, of the Seoond avenue, stated that the old drivers bad without exception returned to their poste and had accepted the wages offered—$1 75 aday. On the Tuird avonue road, also, nearly all the old drivers went back to work, but {' noticed a significant fact that ppolnted yesterday as extras, alt yy at preseat bas more old drivers than they can employ. On the Sixth avenue road, also, at work, and had accepted $1 75 asa day’ of the Striming drivers on the Second in on being asked if any turtber eflort to obtain higher wages would be made by the drivers, said that cir- cumstances might arise which would render such an effort necessary, but they all bad great confidence in President Thorne and thought at the next meeting of the ctors he would do ali in his power to have their wages incteased. AT THK ARMORIRS. The wen called out seengns to the different regi- ments of the National Guard were relievod fre further duty early yesterday morning. The armot however, will be guarded for tho next few days. President Butler, of the Sixth avenue suriace rail- road, called on Superiptendent Walling yesterday to thank him for the proteetion no had rendered the com- pany durimg the strike of the drivors. Mr. Butler Stuted that the reouction in the wages ef the drivers becam absolute necessity, from the fact that the receipts of the road had appreciably diminished since the elevated railroad commeucea runuing. The number of people who had gone to the ee and the fagilities afforded —p. elevated ‘trou, accounted 10 lation im ther receipts. Un ao averng: road had lost $250 per month, Mr. jatier said, since rapid transit went into practical operation on Sixth avenue. lt was for these very cogent conclusive reasens that the company found 1% incumbent to make a reduction in the drivers’ wages, Furthermore, be sad, it was an open que: whether 1t would ben winning or losing priso to keep the road tn operation at all.
