The lather Gets the Child re n-'-The End Xot Yet— A Divorce Case. The parties interested in the habeas cor pus case appeared in court yesterday morn ing at 9 o'clock and made the necessary ar gument before Judge Lochren. Mrs. Nason was accompanied by the two children, Bur nam and Emma, who clung closely to her during the , trial and cried bitterly when they were at Last carried away by the father. Judge Atwater appeared for Mr. Nason, while Col. Hooker conducted the mothei's side of the case. The return to the peti tion for possession of the children was read by the colonel, who made a strong and able plea, alleging Nason to be a man of violent temper and profane habits, and a man totally unfit to have the charge and control of children. It was also shown that when Mis. Nason went to visit the children on the 10th of Novem ber, she carried with her some little arti cles of clothing, etc., for them, which he would not allow them to receive, and that he seized her, (Mrs. Nason), dragged her to the door and pushed her out, striking her several times with his fist. The court, however, raled that the points brought out by the answer wore not strong enough for act; on and Mr. Nason was given the custo dy of the children. The judge ruled, however, that the moth er should be allowed to visit her children at any and all reasonable times, and see that they were well cared for. * A suit for divorce has been instituted on the ground of cruelty, the papers in which were served yesterday. Application for the custody of the children will be made at the time of trial, which it is generally hoped will be successful. Jfi)in:<tiaiia City.

The petition was left at the probate office yesterday, but has not yet been filed. It prays that the territory in question be in corporated as a city, to be divided into three wards, and be granted the usual city privileges, viz: water works, polio 3, fire department, etc. The document is signed by 013 residents of the territory, or as it alleges, "two-thirds of all the legal voters of the district."

Full Report of the Evidence Adduced ISefore Judge Cooley in the Pre'iminaiy Examination Yesterday Afternoon. At 10 o'clock yesterday morning the pre liminary examination of Frank Hanson, charged with the wilful and premeditated murder of Patrick Moriarity at his (Han eon's) house on the night of Friday Nov. 17, was begun in the municipal court before Judge Cooley. Messrs. Pitman and George Robinson conducted the case for the state while Eugene M. Wilson and F. H. Boardman defended Hanson. The lobby of the court room was packed almost to .suffocation by a curious crowd of specta tors. The original complaint was dismissed upon the motion of Counsel Robinson, owing to an error in the name, and a new complaint having been sw*rn out by the Sergeant John West; was read. CJPT. M. G. CHASE was the first witness sworn for the state. He testified to Hanson coming to him and stating excitedly that he had '"slugged" a man who had attempted to get into his house, and offered to bet the oysters that he would not leave before the police should arrive at the place. He also testified to finding the body, or the man, who was not yet dead. Hanson said he struck the man five or six times. On the cross-examination Capt. Chase testified to the rough appearance and poor clothes of Moriarity, which, nil in all, much resembled that of a tramp.' He also gave a description of Hanson's house and the yard where the man was found lying. Hanson said he only struck the man with his fist. Katie Theis, the German girl who lives with her parents nearly opposite the house of Hanson, was the next to take the wit ness stand. She relates the story of the homicide much the same as pub lished in these columns, as given by her before the coroner's jury on Wednesday last. From her window she saw Hanson "licking a man whom he called a G d tramp." He and his wife came and got the witness to stay with the wife while he should GO FOB AN OFFICES. When the three were passing the man lying still in the yard, Hanson kicked him in the back. The cross-examination failed to develop anything new. She was positive that she only saw Hanson Jjkick the man once. The moon was shining and she could see from her window quite plainly. James Quins testified that he had known Patrick Moriarity TWENTY YEAES, and recognized the corpse as that •of Moriarity. They were friends, Mcriarity stopped at his house the night previous to the nrarder. The wit ness lived some seven or eight blocks from Hanson's house. Upon cross-examination, Quinn testified that he lived on one side of the railroad track, while the defendant lived on the other; he had seen Moriarity drink,but nev er had seen him drunk. Captain Chase was recalled to identify the body at the undertakers as the one found at Hanson's house, and Dr. Hill tes tified respecting the POST MOETE3I EXAMINATION, giving a full account of the injuries found upon the remains of Moriarity, which has also been published in detail in the columns of the Globe. On the cross-examination, however, Dr. Hill testified that the broken ribs alone would NOT HAVE CAUSED DEATH. He thought it more probable that the shock to the brain had induced death. The broken ribs had punctured and lacerated the vital organs so that death must have resulted, but the latter all could not have occurred while removing the body in the wagon to the police station; if death, how ever, had resulted from the puncturing of the vital organs it would not have been likely to have occurred in so short a time; it was in his opinion caused by a nervous shock. The witness was not certain re specting any of the theories advanced. He thought the blood found in the peritoneal and pleural cavities might have caused a nervous shock. A recess was then taken until 2 o'clock p. m. Afternoon Session. After the court had assembled in the afternoon the state announced that it would lest. J. F. HANSON, the prisoner, was then called, and testified in defense. The story, as heretofore published in these columns, was related in a very easy and straightforward manner. He gave little evidence of agitation and seemed, as he stated to a Globe reporter yesterday, fully impressed with the one idea that HE WAS NOT GUILTY of murder; that he had only acted as any man would have done under the same cir cumstances; that he had defended his wife from what he supposed was an attack of a vicious tramp who had come to his house designing to outrage her, supposing he (Hanson) was not at home. He testified that the first blow knocked the man off the porch; he also jumped or staggered off; the second blow brought them both "down in a heap." Counsel "Wilson here asked the witness to tell the court what he had supposed the man's intention was when he saw him standing in the door holding his wife by the arm. MB. ROBINSON OBJECTED upon the ground that his thoughts were not competent evidence: it was not for the witness so testify as to his belief; that was a question for the court to find upon the facts presented. Mr. Wilson claimed that in the event the witness believed the man was about to commit some heinous act, his acts were thereby qualified and governed. Mr. Wil sou cited a number of authorities to sus tain his point, and the court admitted the answer. I believed respecting the man's attack upon my wife, that he intended to get what he could out of her, by first knocking her down and then making off with « all he could from the house. When I first heard my wife scream, I was in the front room and she was in the kitchen; there is a room between these two; she screamed while I was shaking down the stove; he had hold of her when I first saw him: he let go of her and rushed towards me, when I asked him what he wanted; when I struck him first he fell off the porch; he came for me again, I struck him again and we both went off the porch; we had a little tussle and I think I hit him again; only a few moments were consumed in the fracas; there are only a few houses in the neighborhood; tramps gave us a deal of trouble; they slept in my barn all summer; we nailed it up and they broke it open. Cross-examination—When before the coroner's jury I said I might have struck him three times; don't remember that I * hit him five or six times; couldn't gay for a certainty what I said to the officers that night; don't think that 1 said to A. Lind that I had been pounding and kicking Mo riarity for a half hour or more; did not tell Officer James Howard, to my rec ollection, that I hit the man five or six times; think my recollection respecting what I said to Officer Howard is as go id as my recollection of anything that happened that night; don't think I told him anything about it, when I spoke to Moriarity ac started to step his other foot through the door, one foot being already on the door sill; as a matter of fact his body moved toward me as his last foot advanced; he had bis hands up; don't think there was a light in the room; my wife was pulling back from the man when I came into the room, inside the house; did not testify before the cor onor's jury that he jumped forward toward me before I struck; did not say a word while there; did not answer me at all; it might have been four or five feet froua the house that he fell the second time; think it was on his side that he fell; I fell on top of him; am not positive how he fell: I so stated before the coroners jury; cannot say where I struck him, think it was some where about the head; used nothing bnt my bare hands; think he was taller than I; don't remember where I struck him at any time; I fell on top of him; we both went down together; when I said I didn't jump on him very hard I meant fall, instead of jump; we both went together to the ground: I sprang with the fall: I struck him at the same instant; I had no revolver during the fight; I handed it to my wife afterwards: had it in my pocket during the time. MBS. FLOEENCE HANSON was next sworn and testified, the following being an abstract of her evidence. She first related the tragedy substantially the same as she had stated it on Wednesday before the coroner's jury, and as published by the Globe the next morning. Cross-examination —l was inside the house when the man came up to me; he had hold of my right arm, which is black and blue from the effect; do not know with which hand he held me; I was so ex cited that I cannot remember very dis tinctly everything which was done; the man had nothing in either hand" that I saw during the entire fracas; my husband made the strokes with his hand; did not tell Katie Theis that my husband struck the man with a revolver; did not tell her that he simply reached in his hand and tried to come into the house, but told her that he caught hold of my arm: when the officers came to my house after the fra cas, I have no recollection of standing be hind the door in illustrating to them the position in which I was when I screamed; I did not tell the officers that the man took hold of me when he opened the door. I surely have a more distinct recollection of the occurrence between my husband and the man than anything which I might have said to the officers; I was as excited when they came as during the fracas; I did not tell Katie Theis that my husband went to the bureau and took out hisre volver and struck the man with it; am positive. The prisoner was again called to the witness stand by Mr. Wilson who asked, "Mr. Hanson, did you or did you not think the man was about to do you some great personal in jury?" < Objected to as leading. After a spirited discussion the court admitted the ques ; tion. A. I did think he was about to do me a great personal injury. Q. By Mr.Robinson: Did you still think so when you had returned from across the street and kicked him as he laid there? A. I did not kick him; I gave him a lit - tie push with my foot. The man did not get up after I struck him the second time; think he laid full length on the ground until the ofiicers came; met a gentle man aad lady on my way after when going for an officer, I asked him if he had seen a policeman; told him I had either a burglar or tramp in my yard; don't think I told this man that Moriarity had a club in his hand: was excited and had been ranning; don't think I said any thing about the man having a club: he did not have a club that I saw; am pretty pos itive about not having said anything about his holding a club over my wife. The defense rested. OFFICES JAS. HOWAED was sworn for the state in rebuttal. Q. Did you have conversation with Mr. Hanson on the night of the homicide I A. Yes, sir. Q. What was that conversation ? Objected to by Mr. Wilson on the ground that in rebuttal testimony a conversation cannot be introduced, as it would be ex amination in chief. Mr. Robinson argued that he had a right to rebut the testimony given by Hanson respecting his fear that the man was about to indict some personal injury either upon himsblf or wife. Mr. Wilson argued in objection, that such testimony must be :n a nature of impeachment, and therefore a proper foundation must first be laid. 2so matter what Hau son had stated to the witness; he was not then under oath and hence that could not be impeachable testimony. The court held that while he thought Mr. Wilson's position was correct, he would permit the witness to answer inas much as he had permitted the prisoner to state what he thought and not what he knew. A. We got into the patrol wagon to go to Hanson's house after the man: I asked him what was up; he said there is a out at my place; I asked him what he had done; he replied "'he broke up my house;"' he said he bet he would not move from the place he was left. [The witness here related the same conversation between the defend ant and Capt. Chase, as published in re port of inquest]. When we arrived at the house he (Hanson) pointed out the man lying in the yard; Hanson said to me: '"I want you to help me out of this;" he said he had struck the man six or seven times; he said when he heard his wife call he went to his dressing room and took out his revolver; he then went and hit the man; the first time he didn't knock him down; the next blow knocked him to the fence; Mrs. Hanson illustrated the position in which she stood when her husband struck the man; she stepped be£ hind the door and looked around: she said she saw the man and she called for her husband. CAPT. CHASE testified respecting Mrs.Hanson's stepping behind the door to illustrate the manner in which she stood when the fracas began. The man came and reached in and grab bed her, as she stood behind the door: she pcreained; I think she said she had hold of the door with her left hand. KATIE THEIS recalled: Mrs. Hanson told me that night when she went to the door the man was reaching out his arms trying to open the door, and she shut the door again and called for her hus band, who came out and struck him with a revolver; when Hanson went down town he handed her the revol ver. EBICK LIND, sworn for the state in rebuttal, testified: Knew Mr. Hanson; saw him last Friday evening; had a conversation with him at that time about striking a man. Question. Did Hanson not tell you in that conversation he had been striking and •; kicking the man for half an hour or an . hour? ■" ;'■ . ••;/■ ■■•'.•.." '-• - -::~- ; ' ■"•■'■ \ j }: Objected to and objection overruled by , i the court. Answer. Yes, sir. ED. DOX.'IL'E ' I testified in rebuttal: Never saw the de I fendant but once; it was •on Friday night j about 10 o'clock; had a conversation with , him at that time about a man .at his i house. Question. Did he not say to you that he heard his wife scream, and he went "out doors and saw a man standing over her with a big club. A. Not exactly; I met him and he asked me if I had seen a policeman; he said he and bis wife had been visiting; when he returned he found a man breaking into his house; he said he guessed he'd fixed the man so he'd stay there till he got bask; he showed me his hand, and said it was swollen; when his wife went for coal she screamed, and he ran to the door and saw a man standing there with a big club. Mr. Hanson seemed to be very much excited, and inclined to talk a great deal. Cross-examination— occurred on the sidewalk on Third avenue northeast; he talked fast: he was very much excited. MICHAEL FAHET testified in rebuttal: Saw Mr. Moriarity on Friday night; came to my house; asked for Mr. Quinn's house; I got up from bed and walked a block to show him I told him to call at Erwin's house and left him. MBS. ANNA FINN affirmed in rebuttal and testified: Saw Moriarity on Friday night between 0:30 and 10 o'clock; he inquired where Mr. Quinn lived; directed to inquire on Sum mer street, or where he saw lights. Cross-examination—Summer street was to the right while Hanson lived to the left. The state here rested. The evidence be ing all in, the case was summoned up, considerable time being consumed in the same. Hanson was held to the action of the grand jury. THE courts, District Court. JUBY CASES.

[Special Telegram to the Globs.] Chicago, Nov. 24.—George Hankins was tendered a genuine surprise last even ing at his gambling parlors, 13-4 South Clark street, by a number of Chicago's detective force dressed in citizen clothes. To make the surprise more complete, Lieutenants Kepley and Shea rang the door bell and were admitted by the colored doorkeeper. There they found four score of Mr. Hankins' guests seated aroend gambling devices in numerous forms. The entrance of the officers , caused no con fusion as their slouch hats were pulled down over their eyes. Presently all the detec tives of the Central station filed into the room and quietly (took possession of the door and windows. When Han kins finally recognized one of the officers a chill _! penetrated' the whole gathering. The tables were desert ed. The room grew quiet. A number of policemen under the command of Lieut. Schaak next filed into the room. Each of them took a prisoner, and marched him down stairs, where the patrol wagons of the Desplaines street station were in wait ing. The gaming tables and other fixtures of the place, valued at X 3.500, were con veyed to the Central station. Another large detachment of policemen raided the dago shops and concert saloons later in the night, and gathered up seventy women of the street-walking stripe. They were harder to handle than the men, many of them tearing the officers' clothes, and striking and screaming viciously. This morning, the gamblers, except Hank ins and Histen, keepers of tables, were fined $5 each and the prostitutes $3 each. The others will receive greater punish ment. Hankins' fine will be not less than $100. Mayor Harrison and Superintend ent of Police Doyle announced a new de parture in the handling of the twin vices of gambling and prostitution.

The Post says: "Call loans thus far to-day have been 20££25 per cent, on stocks and borrowers experience I great difficulty in obHinii.g accommodations. There is much shifting of loans and collateials are scru tinized closely, owing to the depression in the stock market. Currency continues to flow from this center and treasury disbursements are run ning at a very light discount. Tbe. market is entirely nominal. The renewed depression in the market is due to dispatches from the West to the effect that the roads are cutting rates both ways between Chicago, Minneapolis and St. Paul. Tne activity in money is also forcing many weak holders of stock to sell out." Stocks weak end lower, espae'e^y for Grangers, on the belief that tbe rail road war is as far from settlement as ever. Northwestarn common is 1, St.Paul common 1%, Omaha \}£, Denver 1% and Wabash 1% lower; Western Union opened at 80^ and :is now 80.

The Herald expresses the opinion that when it becomes absolutely neces sary to -eview the equipment of the road it will either be done by reducing d-vidends or by is suing obligations of character not calculat to enhance the value of stocks.
