An Interesting case was on trial yesterday
In superior court. It was that of Mobert
against Beck It was commenced several
months ago , the purpose of the plaintiff being
to recover from the defendant about $105
which was claimed as wa cs oarao I while
Mobort was tending bar Tor Bock at hi *
saloons on North Main street and at M in-
nwa. All the ovldonco wai taken On both
sides , nftor which , before the casvs haj been
submitted , Judge McGjo notified thu attor
neys for the plaintiff that If the caio was sub
mitted ho should tiiKo It from the Jury anil
do.ido : in favor of the defendant excepting as
to W , which it was claimed had been loaned
to Beck by Mombort The plaintiff's attor
neys accordingly decided to dismiss the ouo
without prejudice.
The point upon which Judge McGco based
his ruling was that the selling of liquors Is a
crime according to the state law a'ld that
therefore the law cannot Undertake to enforce
any such contract as the one under consid
eration. The attorneys for the plaintiff
promise to commoner the suit again in the
district court , and claim to have great hopes
of succeeding.
