If tlio story relate.! In Judi;e SlabaURh's
court by Mrs. Antoinette HIackman Is true,
alio has had more than her sharo of worldly
trouble. Mrs. HIackman snys her onto
happy homo has been turned Into a tene
ment of squalid misery. She charges that
liquor has wrought the ruin.
Mrs. lllackman is plaintiff In a damago
suit against A. J. Oulbtgard, proprietor of a
saloon at 1312 North Twenty-fourth street.
Slio alleges that her husband, Charles 1'.
lllackman, Is a common drunkard and that
the defendant, by Belling htm liquor after
ho becamo such, has violated the dram shop
regulations. Damago Is askod In tho sum
of $2,000. Elliott D. Evans and John W.
Nlcholls, the saloon man's bondsmen, nro
niado co-defendants. Tho trial Is being
conducted In a spirited manner and Is at
tracting more than ordinary attention. Nu
merous witnesses appear for cither side.
Mrs. lllackman sets forth ihot ebo has
been married sixteen years, and that until
nbout threo years ago her husband was a
model man. Their homo lire was pleasant
In every respect, sho says, and tho family
had a good living, for tho husband had a
regular Incoino of from $3 to per day.
He fell Into the habit of frequenting tho
defendant's saloon, tho petitioner asserts,
and la the year 1S97 formed tho habit of
getting drunk to such an extent that ho
was unablo to tako earo of himself In tho
streets or elsowhere. Ho went from bad to
worse, Mrs. lllackman alleges, until at last
he could not attend to his business and the
wolf came to the door. Tho lllackmans havo
one son. who Is employed as a messenger
boy. Tho mother states ahat her boy Is
deprived of attending school by reason of
his father's condition.
Mrs. lllackman's mother, Mrs. Hoover, was
on tho wltnws stand for an hour or moro
yesterday. She swore shp had known
lllackman for over twenty years, and that
until ho commenced drinking ho was nn
Ideal man. Who 11 in his cups, tho mother-in-law
said, he would abuso his wife shame
fully, and it Is said that on one occasion
when sho was herlously ill ho treated her
harshly
The defense does not admit tht uuy
blame attaches for lllackman's ruin. If he
Is ruined, but that he wrought his own
downfall. Ho may havo bought drinks in
Qulstgard's saloon tho snmo as any other
casual customer who drops In, but It la
specifically denied that thero was over nny
effort on tho part of tho proprietor or any
of bis employes to induce lllackman to
tipple. Ono of tho chief features of tho de
fense Is tho charge that Mrs. lllackman and
her husband havo entered Into a conspiracy
to get money from tho saloon man.

Tho trial of tho caso of Matthew Cullcn
against Simon J. Loncrgan oud others was
begun In tho United States circuit court yes
terday before Judgo Munger. Tho ense Is
ono growing out of a cattle deal la Salt
I.nku In 1888. In December of that year
Lonorgan and others, engaged In the cattle
business, wold their fctock and business to a
llrm which, after taking chargo of their pur
chase, alleged that. It had been swindled and
brought Htilt against Lonergau nud others
to recover a certain tum of money. Tho
llrm was awarded f C.C00 and tho case was
appealed, finally renchlng tho United States
supremo court, whero the finding of the trial
court was unstained. In order to perfect the
appeal a supersedeas bond was necessary,
and Mattthew Cullen nlgnod tho bond for
Ixincrgou and hit fellow defendants. When
tho Judgment was afllrmed Cullen paid the
Judgment nnd costs, which bad grown In
amount to about J 11.000.
Meantime Loncrgan had moved to nroken
How, Neb., whero ho engaged in business
and purchased property, which ho afterward
transferred to his wife. Slnco that t lino tho
wlfo has disposed of tho property nnd tho
prenent ownore resldo In various parts of
the country. Tho suit Is to sot asldo

for tho collection of $1,833.33, alleged to be

In Judge Slabaugh'M court. Tho defense was
that it was a deal In optloiiB and was there
foro a geiubling debt, not tmbject to collec
tion. Tho point ns to options was not es
tablished, it appearing from tho evidence
that tho money claimed was an overdraft ;n
a' deal that was not based on futurity or
options. Therefore the gambling phrase
was eliminated from the case and the Judg
ment rendered was tho same oh would havo
been In an ordinary suit for collection of
money. Tho courts have repeatedly decided
that option dealing is gambling.
