DECISIONS RENDERED BY JUDGE DEEMER
,

or u Jng Cure Cnne Other
.Tiulgo Doomor adjourned the April term
of district court yesterday. Before doing so
ho handed down sovcpl decisions In cases
which wcro tried during the term Just
closed and which nro of nioro or less public
Interest. The case of Fred Kruofror against
the city was ono of the most Important. The
plalntllT sued for $ lt,000 ! damages for the
death of his wife , who fell on ono
of the clt.v's sidewalks , but the Jury
only fjnvo him a verdict of $1 , Just
enough to throw 'tho costs on the city.
The plalnlllT's attorney filed a motion
for a now trial , and , as wounds for it , pre
sented nn aniilavlt from ono of the Jurymen ,
altttliiK that while deliberating on the ver
dict ho slipped out and got u drink of
whisky. The city's attorneys showed that
some of the statements niado by the Jury-
mun were faho and contended thai if ho
would He in one particular the chances were
that ho would Ho In all. In rendering his de
cision Judge Deemer said that if there was
any way oy which ho could sustain the ver-
ulot ho would do FO , but the supreme court
had decided more than once that , any such
action as that of tlio Juryman in question In
validated the verdict. Ho accordingly sus
tained the motion for.a now trial.
In Iruvnr u ( ti Oiilil Guru Concern.
The rase of P. M. Hunter and 0. C. Cook
cf tills city against the French Lcnauo
Safety Cure company to recover $10,000 ,
which they had put up for shares ot stock
in the defendant's
enterprise , was alto ono
In which the public Is considerably Inter
ested. .Itulgo Dcomcr stated that the evi
dence showed that Hunter and Cook had
been Induceu to put their motiov Into the
business through the fraud of the defend
ants , and if they had shown duo- diligence
after ascertaining that thcro had been
fraud practiced upon them they coula
have rescinded their contract. But
they continued their connection with the
compatty oven after they discovered the
fraud , and the fact that , the plaintiffs and
defendants had nlovo "
n feast" on the night
after the meeting was held , at which it was
alleged the settlement hud been made ,
showed a wavering disposition that ho
thought would make n judgment for the
plaintiffs impossible. Ho accordingly handed
down a Judgment for the defendants.
In the case of Wood A. Haves against
.Tames McCabc , n Judgment wns rendered
for the defendant. The plaintiff , as assignee
for a plumbing flrm , sued to collect the
price of some furnaces tfial wcro put In
McCnbo's house. McCabo's defense was
, that the furnaces were of no account. The
court said that there wns considerably moro
heat in the trial than there could have been
"In the furnaces , if all the evidence was true ,
and ho accordingly gave McUabo a judgment
for costs.
Keys Urns. Oorntoil. !
Ono of the most Important decisions wns
that in the case of Keys Bros , against A. W.
Askwith. Aakwith , toccthcr with a lot of
other business men of the city , subscribed tea
a bonus that was raised by the Board of
Trade to induce the ilrm of Keys Bros , to
locate In the city. Subsequently no-irly all
the subscribers refused to pay and suits
were instituted to collect the amounts
claimed to be due. The Judge stated that
the plaintiffs had left the question ns to
whether there was any consideration for the
subscription in some doubt. They admitted
that they had relied upon the promise of the
Board of Trade to see that the fund was
raised and not on the subscription list. Ho
accordingly rendered judgment in favor of
the defendant. Similar judgment was given
in the suits in which W. C. Estop , Pcrcgoy
& Moore , Decro , Wells & Co. , I * C. Besley
and J. I' . Weaver wcro defendants.
The motion of the dofendniit in the case of
Bartlos against Witt for a new trial was
overruled. The principal ground upon which
the now trial was asked was that W. H.
Darrlngton. ono of the jurors , had made some
very harsh remarks to W. H. Uobinson and
another Juror named Nolan about Witt's
character. Witt's attorneys claimed that
his case had been prejudiced in this matter.
The court held that the character of the defendant -
fondant was practically ono of the issues in
the case , and timt consequently the de
fendant's case could not bo unduly prejudiced
by such a discussion.

CITY TENNIS TOURNAMENT.
StntP Clinmplom Cttlllnclmm nnd Ilnttln
Htillcr Orlpiit from Young nnil Cnnkon >
Another step toward the completion of the
city tennis tournament was taken yesterday ,
and there nro now seven matches remaining
to bo decided flvo in the doubles and two In
the singles.
Yesterday's piny was noteworthy for the
defeat of Messrs. Culllngham nnd Bntttn ,
tlio state champions. They wcro opposed by
Secretary C. H. Young and C. If. Cookson
who gave Mr. Culllnehani such n hntd light
In the singles the night before. Cookson wns
npnln In excellent form , apparently never
missing nn opx | > rtunlty to score.
Ho put In n few successful
fast services , but. like most players , ho re
lics less on this kind of game than he did a
year or two ago. Young also contributed
his share to the victory. Tlicro wcro few
errors of judgment noticeable in his play ,
nnd it wns generally safe to expect that if
a ball wns sent to him ho would show that
ho know what to do with It.
On the other slclo of the net Battln , who
got moro than his share of the balls , did less
than his share of the scoring , while Culling-
ham also appeared to bo u bit "off color. "
"Twould be unfair , however , to say that the
victory was due to the shortcomings of the
defeated , for both Young nnd Cookson
played throughout with n vim nnd determi
nation that presaged a victory which was as
well deserved as it was decisive.
* This was the chief event of the day. The
match In which Bowman and Hnskell had
overnight won nnd lost ono sot against Til-
den and Seville ended in the victory of the
ftrmcr pairs and McKcll and Brown also suc
ceeded m leaving Butler and Pratt out of
the race , though they lost a sot In doing It.
Tonight Young and Cooksou will do their
bcstito continue their victorious career , and
Fosbcnuerand Lawrence will strive their
hardest to mnko the task a difllcult ono.
That outstanding tlo between Bart and
Dciilsc in the soinl-llntil of the singles is also
on the program for tonight.

A BTBANGfe ACCIDENT.
A Town In Grrinifny ICutlrnly VVIpoil Out
by un Arfi'Hli" ! Well ,
A curious fate has overtaken the little
town of Rchnoldeniitlil , in the Duchy of
The pc'dplo of Schneidoiniihl
had a town pump''twhich ' had supplied
them with water f6r many years. Dur
ing tlio cholera , 'uWdcmio lust summer
the water fell uhir ( | miBplcion , which
analysis' seemed , to confirm. It was
therefore determined to go deeper and
the pipes of un artesian well were put
down. At a depth of forty-four meters
an underground reservoir was tupped
and the water , probscd on by
the superincumbent neil , rushed
up with great forco. When
the artonlan pipe was stopped the
water forced its way up ouUido the
pipes , bringing up with it quantities of
mind. All the elTortH since nnido to stop
the ( low huro boon useless , and usj the
water rites the earth nlnkn. The oh-
vioiiB inference seems to be that HO long
tin there was no oseapo for it the water
formed un incompressible stratum on
which the upper earth rested in safety.
Every hydraulic press illustrates the
enormous force water will bear and will
convoy when no outlet is provided for it ;
but lot there bo a vent and it yields to a
touch , So wlt.li the hidden water
stratum under the I'osen town./
It bore up the weight
ofas fifty-four motors of salld earth so long
as there wns no outlet , but Uio artesian
jiipo lot it loose nnd it rushed out from
its confinement , and the soil it had
borne < above it necessarily sank down.
There is nothing remarkable , nothing
altogether unexpected. It lias boon
often pointed out that thcro is a danger
tcA which artesian wells may cxposo us.
Alarm has sometimes been expressed at
the possible , though not probable , re
sult of tupping to tiny largo extent the
water-bearing strata under London.
The case of Schneidemuhl is perhaps
the first in which this danger , which lias
always been theoretically recognized ,
has been realized to a very serious ex
. tent.
