Judge Thorncll came to the city yesterday
to finish the hearing of the liquor injunction
suit of L. M. Turner against Kinlt itSchultz.
Attorney Seabrook for the plaintiff and At-
tortipyi Stewart and Mynster were on hand ,
but J. N" Haidw In was still in Chicago. It
was expected that some new evidence would
bo introduced , but it turned out that such
was not the case , and the only
thing done UAS .for the attor
neys to make their arguments. The
attorneys lor the defendants wanted the
court to continue the casn till sometime next
week , in order that Mr. Baldwin might hive
another opportunity to make his speech , but
Judge Thorncll stated that ho was through
with the case , and it must bo submitted ,
although ho would have liked very much to
hear Mr. Baldwin. The case was accord
ingly submitted and taken under advise
ment. The decision ol the court will bo
rendered in the course of n few days.
E. E. Aylesworth appeared before Judge
Thorncll in behalf of his client , L. C James ,
and asked for a reduction of the appeal bond.
James was convicted of bigamy at the last
term of district court , and is now serving n
two years' sentence for the offence. Mr.
Aylesworth thought ho could show that
James was suffering imprisonment without
any intention of committing a crime having
been shown. The matter was taken under
advisement by the court.

More Is the Money ?
Attorney Frank Trlmblo has unearthed a
piece of business which the late Justice Patton -
ton was concerned in , and he is now at work
unearthing some more of it. A violin was
seized by Constable Austin some tlmo ago to
satisfy a claim upon a certain music teacher
of Omaha. The writ of attachment was is-
sued from Justice Patton's court , and the in
strument was advertised for sale. When the
'
day appointed for the sale came , there was no
one on band to bid , so the violin was filed
away in the Judicial archives for future ref
erence.
A few days ago Trimble's client came in ,
wanting to know where the money was that
had been paid for the violin. Ho found that
the violin had disappeared , hut there was no
record on the books of the oftlco showing that
any money had ever been received for it. it
was afterwards learned that Prof. B.Cor -
kowsky had purchased the Instrument from
Justice Patton for & \M. \ Where the money
went nobody knows.
Ex-Justico Patton Is away from the city
and bis statement of the Aso could not bo
obtained , but Trimble has decided to work
that j .5U for all there is in it , and find out , If
possible j , what became of It ,

rested for having burglar's tools in his pos
session.
After serving a short sentence Fields

nc club house on Washington street this
evening , with ex-1'resldont Cleveland as the
evgt
guest uud speaker of the occasion. The house
was crowded and the scone a very brilliant
one.

At 7:00 : o'clock Mr. Cleveland was escorted
to the club house , which was crowded almost
to suffocation. Mr. Cleveland was greeted
with the wildest cheering , long continued
aim often repeated. The president of the
club , Herbert P. llissoll , delivered an ad
dress upon the purpose and growth of th
organization and in wolcouio to its dis
tinguished patron and guest.
Mr. Cleveland replied with a speech which
was delivered with great earnestness and
which was received enthusiastically He
said in part :
Mr. 1'rcslflcnt and Gentlemen : As I < slnnd
for the llrst tlmo face to face with tlie Cluvo-
land democracy , 1 experience mingled emo
tions of responsibility anil pride. My sense
ol responsibility arl-.es from my relation to
your or ant7utlon us Its cotlfiithcr. and my
pride from the nonlo manner in which von
have borne my name. I acKnowlcdpo ymir
rleht to lequlru of mo at this tlmo tin account
of the manner In which I ha\o Kept the polit
ical fallh to which yon uie devotrd. This
rinlit crows out of the fact that the wuid
"democrat1 } ' , " as It stands In the name of your
organization , means vo much and is - \\oitliy
of your care , that Its lRnlflrancc should not
bo In the least clouded by any profit which is
not In keeping with democratic alms and pur
poses.
In giving an account of my political be
havior. 1 can only olTor a record of political
conduct familiar to all mv countrymen and
supplement this refonl bv the declaration
that I have done the best I could tudccro
the conUdonco In me wlilc-h you have so
Krncofullv manifested , I'oi the character of
the reeoid thus presented , you yuiiueUet are
answerable with me for It has been
made under the Inllucnce and encourage
ment of the sentiment and doctrines which
the Cleveland democracy have culti
vated and enforced.Vhcn we startid to-
Kother In political life and responsibility ,
your acreplcd creed taucht that politics was
Minietlilng more than adroit jujrulnry ; that
there was still such a thing as olllclal duty
and that It mc'int obligation to the people ;
that the principles of our povi-rmnent. were
worthy cf conscientious study , and that the
doctrines-of true democracy , honcstlv and
bravely enforced , promised the greatest good
to all our countrymen and exacted through
the length and bteadtu of our Innd. Impartial
governmental care and Indlscrlnilnatlng
just ice.
I'utillc extravagance In its relation to In-
eiiltablc | t.irllT laws not only lays an unjust
tribute uuon the peoplo.lmt Is responslb o for
unfair advantages bestowed upon specl il and
favored Ink-rests as the price of partls.m sun-
nort. Thus the e.xerclso of the popular will
for the benefit of the emintry at largo Is re
placed by sordid and selfish niothcb directed
to personal advantage , while the oncourago-
ntpiit of such niothes In-public place for party
ends deadens the official conscience.
Let us , then , as we push on In our campaign
of education , especially Impiess upon our
countrymen the lessou 'which ' teaches that
public extravasanco Is a deadly , danuerons
thing , that frugality and , economy are honor
able , that the virtue and watchfulness of the
people are the suicst safeguards against
abuses In their government , and that those
who profess to servo their follow citizens In
public pin to must bo faithful to their trust.
After the exercises 'in the assembly hall
Mr. Cleveland , assisted'oy prominent demo
crats of the city and county , held n reception
in the drawing room of the club house.

tenses from Edwin Streeter , tbo well known
Bond street jeweler.
Pinter , who was arrested on May 4 , had
previously induced Streeter to go tolus ( Pin
ter's ) bed room at Storev's hotel , where
they could test the American's claim. Street
er handed Pinter a sovereign , which the lat
ter throw into a crucible , covered it with
some kind of a powder and after appearing
to molt it , pulled out a lump of gold equal In
weight to about thrco sovereigns , "tabecnoy
Al" then suggested that Streeter should fur
nish him with 8.000 sovereigns , which ho
would transform by use of the philosopher's
stone into gold weighing 24,000 sovereigns ,
equal to a sum of $120,000. Streoter agreed
to this , but became suspicious and had Pin
ter placed under arrest.
At the Marlborough police court the next
morning the presiding magistrate said ttat
it was just possible that Pinter might have
discovered some method of increasing the
weight of gold. Pinter , cheered by the
magistrate's remark , insisted that ho could
increase the weight of gold , and asked if it
was just that be should bo compelled to
divulge bis secret in court.
The examination was continued today , but
was not completed. Pinter , It seems , has
also performed hla tnck in other countries.
The case was then adjourned.
Among the people who are said to have
been victims of Pinter's philosopher's stone
nro the names of members of the Rothschilds
and a member of the lirmof Daring Brothers.

a circus yesterday , and tbo best point was
there was no admission charged.

claim in tbo front upstairs room of the house
where bo has been stopping and was evi
dently determined to stand oft all efforts to
oust him.
Suscorie was turned over to the county
some time ago as Insane , but after a short
confinement appeared to improve and about
ten days ago ho was allowed to depart us
harmless.
Yesterday forenoon his old trouble came
back to him , and after supplying himself
wltn numerous implements of war ho forti
fied his stronghold and defied all comers.
Three or four deputy sheriffs went out and
tr.cd to arrest the crazv man. The attempt
on the part of these officials scemeii to fun
into llaine the sleeping lire * of Insanity , and
in a moment ho was a raving maniac. Efforts
wcra mada all the afternoon to take Suscorio
into custody , but ho stood oil tbo gang of
deputy sheriffs and citizens.
Finally the pollco were sent for. They
went out with the patrol wagon , but returned
empty handed. Captain Cormack. Uotectlvo
Haze and Ofllcer Stump then started out to ,
corral tbo subject for the asylum , and they j
did It. A ladder was placed against the window - |
dow , a long polo procured and after beating
and punching tbo unfortunate with the pole , '
a dnsb was made up the ladder. Detective .
Ilazo Jumped throuch the window , followed I
by Cormack nnd Shoup. Hy a united effort
Suscorio was mukj a pilsotier and taken to
the central station , and cfterwards turned
over to Sheriff Boyd and removed to the

The arrest caused considerable excitement
in the neighborhood und furnished amuse
ment to about a thousand curious people who
