A MUCH TRIED CASE. Came Up for a Hearing in Common Pleas Court Before Judge Ed wards Yesterday Some of the Other Cases. The complicated and much-tiled Hlt-tenbendor-Uleseeker cabo came up be foie Judge Edwards In common pleas couit yesteiday. It is a suit on a note for $3.'3. given to Catherine Ultten bender, of this city, by Catheilne Ule seeker and her son, Irwin, of Moscow, and AVilllam Koch, who signed it as a surety. Tlie Hleseckeis defaulted In payment and now Mrs. Hlttcnbender is suing Koch to recover. The local courts opened the judgment us to Koch and the Supeiior court nlTlrmed this finding. Koch defends on the ground that he received no con sideration for signing, and that he was assured by Mrs. Blttenbender befoie he signed the note that she would not hold him liable. He says that Mrs. Hlttenbender agieed to enter the note against tho Hieseckers and keen It re vived against their leal estate. She failed to do this latter and when the judgment lost Its Hen other Judgments crept In ahead of It and left Mis. Hlt tenbender's claim out In the cold. Mrs. Rlttenbender admits that she agreed to follow tho Hleseckeis llrst, but left It to Koch, at his own sug gestion, to look after the levival of the judgment. George D. Taylor rep resents the plaintiff, and E. C. Xevv coml) and O'Urlen .t Kelly the de fendant. A case of tiespass under the exemp tion laws Is being tiled befoie Judge Gunster. John Copper is the plaintiff and Drake & Stewart the defendants. Copper lented a stoic fiom the de fendants and was sold out for $.'S. He says now that he claimed the benefit of the exemption law. but that they Ignored his notice and sold his fui nl ture, valued at $200. The defense is that no mention was made of the exemption law 'and fur ther that Copper tinned over a large amount ot his piopeity to a third paity when the seizure was about to be made. Tills would estop him, it is claimed, from having recourse to the exemption laws. .-judge Stanton repiesents the plaintiff, and ex-Judge Knapp the defendants. A verdict of $IS?.21. in favor of the plaintiff, was entered by iigteeineiit In the case of James Rooney against Glover &. Hoinbuker. A compulhoiy uon-sult was gi anted by Judge Gunster in l he case ot John I'ressnmn against DU kson it bor ough. He sued for damages to his pioperty caused by an overllow ot wat er which was due, ho alleged, to the failure of the borough to supply prop er means of catrylng off the surfnee water. The evidence of the plaintiff Itself showed that the flooding occmred during nn unusiiully heavy storm. George M. Watson attorney for tho defense, argued that no negligence on tho part of the butnugh had been shown and abked for a nou-sult. Judge Gunster ndopted his views and granted the motion. Pressman was offerred $400 to settle the case, some time ago, but lefused. In the case of II. A. Depuy against J. D. Compton, the juiy leturned a verdict for the plaintiff in the full amount of his claim. He sued on a $100 judgment note. The uise of H. S. Wonien against Mary Council was given to the Jury by Judge Purdy in the afternoon. No verdict had been reached at udlouin ment. E' a tiieiry zmm "A cure in a night."
