Lord Russell's amendment dis* poses of the most disputable point in the seventh clause. Gladstone yesterday some- what modified his previous declaration con- cerning the inviolability of leases by the statement that the same relief should b:2 ziv- ento lease holders who are subjected to undue pressure.

This concession saved an ob- structive debate which the Irish members seemed inclined to raise. THE SUPPOSED MURDERER.

In a protracted political tussle this is a big point. THE terrible wind-storm that swept over the city of Chicago Wednesday night didn’t low any of the mortgages off of the real es- tate, and the people who arein debt are no; exactly able to see where their benefit comes in. mem eae [T is asserted on good authority that the real reason of the recent French outbreak against the Italians at Marseilles was caused by the shipment of a large invoice of organs to that city, all playing L’Ilorologe de mon arandpere.

The picture is so natural that you can almost detect the smell of the Skunk River. As Gov.

AN exciting telegram comes across the water this morni 1g to the effect that the city of Moscow is being reduced to ashes by the terrible Nihilists. The value of the informa- tion is somewhat marred by the fact that it comes through Mr. RocHEPORT'’S paper, the Intransigcante.

When the balloting for Senators began to-day the Speaxer withdrew the name of PLATT and entered RicHanp CROWLEY for the senator- ial sweepstakes. We shall probably discover who CROWLEY isin da@etime.

A MAINE Court lays down the principle that a man who runs a sea-side hotel with bathing-houses on the beach attached toit is not responsible as an inn-keeper for valua- bles left in the bath-houses by persons bath- ing. As every one knows, if valuables are stolen out of a bedroom a hotel-keeper is re- sponsible, but the Court holds that this re- sponsibility does not extend to another busi- ness like renting or furnishing bath-houses. There each patron must protect his valuables for himself, and the wise patron will have none to protect. SCHLIEMAN’S ILIOS. In a recent nnmber of the _ British Quarterly Review is an article with the above title in which the writer, PALEY, handles without gloves the theories and enthusiasm of Mr. SCIILIEMAN and his supporters. The critic’s general conclusion is that depth of antiquarian deposits is not absolute proof of age, and that there is no historical proof that a careful stadent can accept that our HOMER is the original Hom- ER, or that there was any such campaign as the Trojan war, or that the half mgthical characters described had any real existence» or that Troy and the plains of the Scamander were the scene of tbe famous siege. Not content with this, this iconoclast attacks the good Doctor’s account of his ready mastery of Greek and his suggestion to revolutionize the methods of teaching the language by insinu- ating that SCHLIEMAN abused autobiograph- ic license inthe statement that he acquired it in six weeks, and by declaring if every one could learnit so readily its use- fulness as a mental drill would be destroyed. However, the criticism is little more than an elaborate “‘I don’t believe it,’’ and will prob- ably strike a sympathetic chord in the minds of the majority of readers who are inclined to be skeptical, without doing any real injury either to the good Doctor or his great work, The magnitude of his researches can onlv be appreciated by a perusal of his account of them, and no student will content himsel with less or allow a critic to snape his conclu- sions thereon. WILSON, in his history of Mexico, dwelis with some stress on the fre- quent occurrence of the cross among the architectural aud archeological ruins of that country, and deduces therefrom a theory of descent of the ancient peoples fromthe Phiw- nician mariners who brought with them the worship of DIANA or ASHTAROTH, of which the cross was the symbol. With as mutch reason can we claim for the aborigines of this country a descent from some branch of the people described by SCHLIEMAN. The Doctor is much impressed With the constant repetition of the peculiar cross that he informs us is symbolical of the worship of Minerva, a8 Well as the owl that be found so common. In ISvi, there was in HENDERSON'S colle¢- lion, at Frenchtown, opposite St. Louis, « large shell amulet_or medallion, about three anda balf inches in diameter, deeply engrav- ed with several concentric circles, the inner one forming the body of an immense spider resembling the myvzale of the South, and in this body Was ent this same remarkable arm- ed cross so often figured by SCHILIEMAN. This medallion: Mr. HENDERSON had take); from one of the many hundred tombs he had rifled to make up his collection: and in his opinion this particular grave was of some very important personage, as it was filled with various objects of ornament and use. From the same place he secured a littie owl two and a half inches high, made of peculiar The people of New South Wales are, in fact, , | —— seum as an evidence of the art of these later mound-builders. PETERSON’S, STEPHEN- son’s and WITHMAaR’S wi'l furnish these antiquarians with material from which to judge of our advance in the manufacture of fine porcelain. The gorgeous statue of BEN- TON will stand for Jupiter Pluvius and the Tower Grove SHAKSPEARE for Mercury. THE Augusta (@a.) Chronicle is edited by a gentleman who composed that once popu- lar song entitled ‘*‘My Maryland.’’ It was to the music of this song that the army of Gen. sounds familiar. Weare sorry to lose Mr. | Lex penetrated the bifurcated State in 1862 and participated in the festivities at Autie- tam. Just after this episode the song was dropped for the more appropriate ballad of “Carry Me Back to Old Virginia.” But we digress. Mr. RANDALL, the editor of the colonies very repidly. The population Of - Cy ,onicle as aforesaid, being a native of Maryland and the author of the only bit of poetry that ever gave the State fame, outside of Mr. Key and his turgid “Star Spangled Banner,’ naturally feels called upon to ad- mire WM. PINKNEY WHYTE, the ex-Senator and Plug Ugly politician who was nominated recently devoted several valuable columns of his paper to what might be termed the apotheosis of WHYTE. Beginning with the birth of the alleged statesmen he traced his career to the time of his stepping down from the United States Senate. At this date he tells us Mr. WHYTE’S “cup of glory was full.’ But the story proceeds and we are elegantly and classically assured that ‘*Crn- CINNATUS was not permitted to remain at the plow when Rome was menaced,” so Gov. WHYTE was called upon to run for Mayor of Baltimore. The editor goes from glory to glory, taking WHYTE with him. He is convinced that the “grandson of WILLIAM PINKNEY suffers no permanent eclipse. The fire and dew and sunshine that make up his noble individuality will always assert themselves.”?’ Even more comforting is this grand concluding burst of eloquence: “The blessings of a mother: that protected the golden hair of the soldier boy in the day of the battle; was not so potent as the bene- diction that heaven has sent upon the rever- end character of WILLIAM PINKNEY WHYTE!” Perhaps some of the callow essays read at college commencements this year were more fervid and gaudy than this biographi- cal chaplet, but we will wager a silver doMar with a handle to it thatthe honor of Primo Flapdoodlist belongs to the poet-editor of Augusta. [tis ali very nice to speak of the “reverend character’’ of Mr. WHYTE, butif the eulogist had ever seen the Baltimore boss climbing out of bed at night and going down toa station house to secure the release of a shoulder-hitting Plug Ugly, detained ona charge of homicide or larceny—some man of influence who bad rendered him service ata primary election—he wouldn’t have had the nerve to work so much drab into his picture. A RECENT writer, speaking of the fashion- able gait of the utter young lady of the period, says that it is supposed te be the offspring of the ‘‘utterly utter manners of the London wsthetes, who have set the fashion for languid, Willowy, weary wables, now the rage at many fashionable gatherings” of the new il- luminati of silliness. Whenthe wsthete ap- pears upon the front door-step with her Langtry hat and shakes the bangles on her bracelets, pushes into better position the Jacqueminot rose at her belt, or the field daisies 1n her fourth buttonhole, then shakes outthe puflings of her polonaise, raises a balloon parasol! with its ivory handle carved like acalla lily, and prepares to get into Shape for the fashionable gait, for the space of a minute her body = seems to work upon eccentrics. Ifer insteps g o Me pects arein favor of the Eiglers having ‘uch more serious charge to consider thai che t already preferred. — CITY PERSONALS.

Yesterday morning the baggage men and . back drivers at the Union Depot were treated to a Surprise when they found the following notice placarded at the main entrance to the depot, allowing the wagons to stand “on the south side of Poplar street,between Tenth and Twelfth streets, a clear space being left open from the east side of the main entrance of Union Depot of not less than ninety feet, ex- ‘tending west andon both sides of Eleventh from Spruce tothe north line of Poplar street.” ‘Ordinance No, 10554, passed January, 1878, for the better protection of travelers, has the fol- jowing provision: Section 2. Hackney car- riages, bueeage wagons, omnibuses, hotel eoaches and all other vehicles used in the tran-portation of passengers or bageaze are hereby authorized and empowered to be lo- cated and stationed for business purposes vnon the following streets: On the south side of Poplar street, from Tenth to Twelfth; on the east side and west side of Eleventh street, from Spruce street to the north line of Poplar street; on Main street, from Plum street to Cedar street, an@ on the levee (or Front street) from Spruce to O'Fallon streets. This makes a conflict between the Board of Police Commissioners Who issued their new vehicie stand ordinance this' morning. The » baggage men have bad considerable ‘trouble on this score heretofore, and will not submit to this unless it can bespown that the man- dates of the Beard of Police Commissioners count for more than the ordinances of the Municipal Assembly. Some police oflicers were placed ut the depot to see that tlris is enforced, but the men have made no attempt v0 infrinwe on the rezulations. Notrouble has heen experienced with the men for several months, but now thatthe Board has seen tit toalter this the association will test the mat- ter. They bave allowed the omnibuses to oc- ecupy aspace by themselves, but will now drive in there and occupy that as well as any other position of the street. The Board reg- ulates allthe standsinthe citv with the ex- ception of the Union Pepot and the levee, for which the Municipal Assembly has specially legislated atthe request of the baggage and hackmen. Ina few days the men will make a test case of the matter, and inthe event of a fine being awsessedin thé Police Court an appeal will be taken. When asked what course the Baggage Men’s Association would take in the matter, Mr. I*arrell a | **This is an infringement on the rights ¢ ed tous by the Municipal Assembly,and we propose to test the power of the Police Board to take the action ‘they ‘have taken. The ordinance designates that we -shall occupy the south side of Poplar street, between Tenth and Twelfth streets and the Board now says that we must not stand within a distance {) feet west of the east line of the main entrance. This is of most importance to the backmen, who get their loads at the entrance. We have strictly conformed tothe provis- fons of the ordinance. and do _ not now propose to be _ interfered with. Ordinance No. 105284, which grants us the privilege of standing on the south side, was aseed by the Assembly for the benefit of the aggagcemen, andit regulates the Unton De- pot, Main strect, atthe Iron Mountain De- pot ami the jievee. We will question the right of the Police Commissioners to interfere with this as it has not been repealed.” LOCAL BREVITIES.

The convenience of an accessible sheltered auditorium atthe Garden Theater, Uhrig’s Cave, was shown last evening, a shower of rain prompting the management to present the first act of “Billee Taylor’’ in the large and commodious hall adjoining. The enter- tainment was completed in the garden later in the evening. Ford’s excellent company gave a finished performance of the popular nautical opera, and it was received with tae usual manifestation of favor. ‘*La Mascotte” is in rehearsal, and will be produced at the cave shortly. On Monday evening, ‘‘the Fourth,” the performance will be supple- mented by a grand illumination and display of fireworks. The down-town ticket office, 17 Olive street, is proving a great conven- ience for the patrons of the Cave.

Three Men Under Sentence of Death for July 15 Expecting the Best. Charles F. Kring, Joseph Michael Kotov- sky and Charles Ellis have been sentenced to pay the penalty ofthe crime of murder of which they were convicted in the Criminal Court. Kotovsky is morose and quiet but does not expect to be inthe happy land on the 15th instant. Ellis has the hope socom- mon to colored men convicted of murder. He looks for the best until the worstis on him. Kring is the personification ofa happy de- lusion. No man ever heard a key grated in cell door with less concern than Kring who is under sentence to die in fifteen “days. ‘‘No, sir, I don’t expect to be a dead man on the 15th by any means,’ said Kring. ‘4I’ll bea free man yet.” Kring’s attorneys are as hopeful though not so confident as their client that they will be finally successful. Messrs. Chas. Noland and Price, atterneys for Kotovsky, have sprung anew point which they hope will save the murderer of his sweetheart from the gallows. Aninstruction for murder in the second degree in a.case when the plea is insanity is never given. Mr. Wharton, a law writer, in a late work argues that instructions for -murder in the second degree should be given in such eases. Messrs. Noland & Priee argue that the par- ticular pcint on which he is insane might be touched upon by a friend in conversation and resultin a murder: bare deliberation and premeditation would be lacking, and in such a case instructions for the second degree should be given. It is oa this ground that thev intend to move fortheir client. Mr. Bishop for Ellis, Noland & Price for Kotovs- ky and Kring’s attorneys will apply to the Court of Appeals for stays of execution.

The jury inthe case of the State against Wm. Dieckmann, charged with the killing of Henry W. Mertz, at Hillstown, in St. Louis county, about eight months ago, last night rendered a verdict of guilty of murder in the second degree, and assessed his punishment at imprisonment ir tk, Penitentiary for eigh- teen years. The trivMnad been in progress at Cluyton before Judge Edwards since last Tuesday, und the evidence upon which this verdict is based ~ tendec to prove thata disagreement arose between the de- ceased and the defendant over a settlement of accounts in which Mertz called Dieckman a d-——d Har, and was thereupon invited out into the Olive Street road to settle the mat- ter. Inthe affray which occurred Mertz was cut with a pocket knife in three places, one of the cashes in his stomach letting out his bow- els. From this wound he died shortly after. The issues in the case were hotly contested for the defendant by Charles P. Johnson and M.¥. Taylor, and for the State by John K. Warfield and Zach. J. Mitchell. The jury went out at six o’clock vesterday evening and by twelve o’clock they had determined upon the verdict given above. eee ee Base Ball.

The New Machine Invented by a St. Louisian. *“*Have you seen it’? asked a tall man of a POSsT-DISPATCH reporter the other day. ‘‘What do you mean by it?’ rejoined the party addressed. ‘‘Why,the augmented power, perpetual motion machine. Within astone’s throw of the Court House is a curious machine, Wa. Haines, the inventor, was never a perpetual motion fanatic, but being a practical machin- ist for years he has been studving upon the problem of augmented or utilized power. The fact upon which be began to work is that the power is tothe Weight as the short arm ofthe lever isto the long arm. Then tbe question was, can water be made to lift itself by any application of this principle? For the pur- pose of experimenting Mr. Haines con- structed a rude under-shot Water wheel eight feet in about diameter and 15 inches from side toside. As | the water wheel revolves it turns a two foot cog-wheel upon the same shaft with itself. This second wheel turns upon a smaller wheel, which makes about ten revglhutions to itsone. Bythe use of another large and another small cog-wheel the velocity at the point where the resistance comes is about 100 times as greatas thatof the water wheel. Immediately below the main shaft is a pump, from whicha hose leadsto a small tank placed above so that the water from this re- servoir can be madetoturn the machine. The whole affair is very simple. In the tank, which will hold perhaps 20 gallons, asmalli quantity of water is placed, and as this falls upon the wheel, turning it around, the pump sends up new supplies, and thus the machine runs on indetiinitely. A miniature machine made on the same model has run all day. Tothe large machine a belt has been attached, which connects with a sewing ma- chine, and in an experiment of several hours duration the machine has run regularly and smoothly. Mr. Haines saidto a visitor: *‘] } never claimed perpetual motion for this ma- chine; Iwas only trying to make watera part of the machinery. The ideais to lift the water with the short arm of the lever and then place it at the long arm to lift more after it.’ Mr. Hainesis a man of limited means, and some parties from New York have under- taken to furnish him money to pursue his ex- eriments and look to the results for reim- uursement. Everything is still verv crude, but it is exceedingly interesting to watch the machine, ahd its inventor is hopeful that it may prove at least a great economizer of pow- er. The few who have been permitted to wit- ness the experiments have universally come away saying: “‘Itis really wonderful, but I don’t understand it.”” Wa. H. WAREING, ESq., Asst. General Su- perintendent Third Division Mailing and Dis- tributing Department, New York Post Oflice,in writing concerning St. Jacob’s Oil, says: The reports from the several superintendents and clerks who have used the oil agree in praising it highly. It has been found efficacious in cuts, burns, soreness and stiffness of the join‘’s ana muscles, and affords a ready relief -for rheu matic complaints. THE NEW NOTARIES. Difficulty of Presenting an Approved Real Estate Bond. The following additional commissions for Notaries reached the Circuit Clerk’s office this morning from the Secretary of State: Jas. S. Ensor, Geo. S. Grover, Jas. Holland, Jas. B. Wilde, Jos. Lathrop, Nathaniel G. Pierce, Frank B. Nichols, Simeon T. Price, Andrew M. Sullivan, Walter L. Haley, Henry L. Edmunds, Wm. H. Scudder, Jr., Jas. W. Wallace, Frederick Gottschalk, Emory S. Foster, Wm. Casey and August Ahrens. Seventy-seven commissions have now peen forwarded but only thirty-three appointees had qualified up to noon to-day. There is no disguising the fact that the conditions of qualification enforced by Circuit Clerk Vogel, viz:ta good “real estate”? bond for $10,000 with not less than two sureties, press somewhat inconveniently upon the new Notaries. Only those who command famil or political influences or an old established bus- inees elientele have as yet been enabled to face these conditions, and some of the young- ermen have been walking the streets for days in the effort to secure an approved, un- incumbered rea] estate security. . It May Be Caused by the Coming Bakers’ Strike. - —— — What the Men and the Masters Say Con- cerning the Matter. Itis extremely probable that the Scriptural adage “that itis not by bread aloae that man liveth” will be put upon its proof next week. The men that make the bread are mad and the men that eat it will have to suffer. Careful housewives are hereby cautioned to take notice and to hunt up the rolling-pin and the bread-board from the closet where they have been lying useless. It Would also be a goodidea to layin asack or two of quadruple X, for itis very doubtful whether bread will be as plentv next week as it is during the present. The journeymen bakers have long claimed that they have beena hard worked, ill-paid and generally maltreated people, and they have concluded to see what they can do to better their condition. They think a strike is the best plan, and on Saturday next they will roll dough and bake bread for the last time in these establishments which refuse their demands. In general thev have not much objection to the wages, but thev claim tbat the hours of labor are entirely too long, and _ they do not propose to submit any longer. They ask for twelve hours as aday’s work and an entire holiday Sunday. They claim that the protits of the business are such that the bosses can well afford to pay these prices and to grant these demands. They have also another grievance. In many of the smaller shops, of which there are nearly 500 in the city, the meg are compelled to carry the bread in baskets to customers, and they most vehemently pro- test against this custom. The Bakers’ Union will hold two meetings at Centra] Turner Hall, one on Saturday night and the other on Sunday morning, in order to give every member a chance to attend. At these meetings it is expected that the strike will be set on foot. A petition wastaken.around among the large bakeries some timeago, asking that the terms before set forth be granted, and nearly all of the eight larger shops granted it. There are however, nearly 300 minor shops, em- ploying from one to four men each, andfit 1s with these that the trouble is expected. **T tell you,” said one of the Unionists, to- day, ‘*I don’t want my name inthe paper, Ne we're going to stick to this thing to the st. **Will you strike in al] the shops?’ ‘*‘No; only in those who refuse our de- mands. We must have shorter hours.” **Are not all the large establishments work- ing their men on satisfactory terms?” “Not by ajugfull. Thereis Freund, for one. His men work Sunday time ana they are by no means satisfied. Thatis alse the case in several other shops.” “If you only quit the bakeries which re- fuse, Won’t these supply the others and de- feat the strike’”’ “Oh, no. Itisnotto their interest to do so. Besidesif they dothe Union can take measures to remedy the matter right away by calling all the men out.’’ “You won’t back down Sunday, will ou? ‘Not much. Come and see.’’ Other members of the Union who were seen, were equally confident of success. During this season the] bakeries sell an enormous amount of bread. The large class of poor people who use the same stove for heating and cooking purposes and who have no fire in summer on account of the heat are thrown upon the bakeries for their supply of bread. In addition to this the men say that the rush for cakes, confectionery, etc., in and about the Fourthof July is enormous, and they have selected Sunday for these two reasons. They have given due notice, and when they gointothe matter they say that they will make a determined fight. Mr. A. A. Condon, the proprietor of a large bakery at the corner of Seventh and Walnut streets, was called upon in reference to the matter. He laughed and said that he did not fear it. “I don’t think the strike will affect the larger establish- ments,” said he. They are all comply- ing witb the demands at present. I work my men only twelve hours, with no Sunday work, and I know they are satisfied. They have told me§that they would not strike.”’ : “The $mall shops will catch it, however?’ “Oh, yes. The two hundred small baker- ies will a) close, and it will cause some hard- ship in certain parts of the city.” “Do ie expect a bread famine’ RB“ Well, hardly. You maybe sure we w)]! have bread allthe time. I think the outlook is that the large shops will not be interfered with.” Mr. L, Freund was seenat his bakery on Soulard street. He deciared that his men were satisfied. None of them belonged to the Union and none of them would strike. **I pay my men very good wages,’’ said Mr. Freund,|*‘and they get off every second Sat- urday night and Sunday morning. They think that enough.”’ “You don’t expect the strike to succeed” **No. A lot of fellows will strilee, and they will lose their places, that is all. In the smal) bakeries the bosses will bake until they get non-union men. I tell you whatis at the ottom of this thing: Welle, Henze, Westhus and one or two other large shops don’t bake Saturday night—don’t have fresh bread on Sunday, and they want to prevent + condition of Gentlemen's Handk’chts ‘*Fagin’’ the Jew (Dickens’ famous character) would have set all his pupils upon our customers, had he lived in this age, to gather in their WIPES.

It won’t succeed, however, al- though it may cause considerable trouble for a While.”? A Costly Ring. Upon the Fifth Street Line an innovation has been introduced in the shape of a station- ary be:l punch over the door, worked bwa strap running tke length of the car, and worked by the conductor wherever he may be standing. This morninga stout colored lady who said she was *“*wunner de ole blue hen’s chickens,”’ but neglected to state which one, wanted to get off the car at Madison street. The conductor was engaged in a de- bating society on the back platform, and the driver wasin the midst of a heroic effort to catch up four minutes of Jost time. Accordingly when old Auptie saw Madison street slipping by and \yealized that every foct the car travel 2q Was just so much additional distance f9r her to tote. a large basket of washing over,'she jarose to the re- quirements Of the situation, and hooking the handle of her gingham umbrella into the wrong strap, she made the index finger on the dial waltz around forty-five cents’ worth before the horror-stricken conductor could get the vehicle stopped. ‘*‘What the blazes did you do that for?” asked he. **Do what for?” ‘‘Ring that register ?’? ‘*Kase I wanted the car stopped.” “Well, you can pony over forty-five cents for your fun.” **Oh yes, I thinks I see mysef a-ponyin’ over forty-five cents, I does.

It was on an Olive street car that a little tragedy happened last evening over which several hearts are sore to-day. The seats were all taken and a goodly number of men and women were swaving to and fro onthe guy ropes when a benevolent looking and vener- able old gentleman entered the car. He was evidently very near sighted and rather fee- ble, and seeing that no one arose to give him a seat a very pretty little matron with blue eyes and the _ very nicest possible blonde hair offered him hers. Theold gen- tleman declined at first but she insisted, and he sank gratefully onthe cushion, looking thankful but penitent. Hehad hardly be- come well balanced before he reached for- ward and picked up a cream-colored mulatto baby ina spotless white smock that was standing close tohis benefactress, with the remark: *“‘At least, madame, let me hold your little baby.” A titter becoming every second more tit- tersome ran round the car, the lady hurried- ly motioned the conductor to stop. and the real mother indignantly exclaimed: **You put dat child down, sah, to once.”’ CHICAGO and return, $7 00. Office, 407 Chestnut. Garvey’s Ticket Recovering a Daughter. Yesterday awrit of habeas corpus was prayeg for mJudge Lindley’s Court relative to the custody of Mamie Jones, a little girl twelve years of age, at presentinthe care and contro] of James and Jane Hodgen at 1006 Chestnut street. The application was made in behalf of the girl’s mother, who alleged that she: was a fit and proper person to have control of her daugh- ter, but that the child was improperly re- straimed of her liberty by the Hodgens of Chestnut street. The writ was ordered to issue, returnable this morning in Judge Boyle’s court, but through some mistake no service was had on Mrs. Hodgen. That Jady, however, appeared in court to-day, and an amended order was entered, making the writ returnable on Tuesday next in Judge Thay- er’s Court. Mrs. Hodgen’s claim to the girl is based, itis understood, upon an order of the authorities at the City Hall, the girl hav- ing at one time been under the control of the management of the House of Refuge. She willbe produseed in Court next Tuesday, when the whole matter will be ventilated. Four Courts Brevities. A warrant for Mike Shay was issued to- day. He is accused of stealing $26 from Mrs. D. Wolff. Bob Curven will have to answer a charge of stealing a skiff from Pat Driscoll. Cyrus Wade gave bond to answer a charge of cruelty to animals. Toney Hammer, arrested on the same charge, gave bond to answer. Charles Wagner had an examination in the Court of Criminal Correction to-day on a charge of grand larceny and was held in the sum of #800. F. W. Crewe was put under $1,000 on a charge of forgery.
