THE COURTS.
A Penitent Milkman Imploring the Milk
of Judicial Kindness.
A COCKNEY TAR OCT OF HIS DEPTH.
Military Obligations of Disbanded Militia
Companies.
WILL OF THE CENTENARIAN LAHBBUSH
Tha unexpectedly severe penalties Imposed upon
milkmen acknowledging the soft Impeachment of
watering their milk do not seem to be relished by all
of the derelict lacteal vendors. Moses H. Poliasky, who
pleaded guilty to the Indictment of selliug watered
milk, and was sentenced by Judge tilldcrsleeve to pay
a Due of $'.'U0, and also to thirty days' Imprisonment
In the Penitentiary, wus yesterday brought before
Judge Oouobue, In Supreme Court, Chambers, on
writs of habeus corpus and certiorari, sued out with a
view to effect his discharge from the Penitentiary.
Mr. Hugh Coleman, counsel fur Polinsky, made quite an
elaborate argument In the case. Us Insisted that the
penally Imposed by the Court was clearly In vio
lation of ilio Laws of 1882, chupti r 407, as umended.
Laws of 1884, chapter 044, and ull the acts
amending the same; that the only penally which tho
Court could have imposed was a line ol $60, and if tno
One was uol paid then imprtsuniueui in the Peni
tentiary lor thirty days; that ibe law In the case sim
ply provides that nuy persou or persons who shall
knowingly sell or exchange, or expose for sale or ex
change any impure, adulterated ok unwholesome milk
shall ho deemed guilty ol a misdemeanor, and oh con
viction shall ho punished by a line of uol less thun $60
fur cauh and every offence, aud If tho lluo is out paid
shall ho imprisoned for not less than thirty days in the
Penitentiary or County Jail, or until said lino shall he
paid ; that no power exists id the Court to impose both
punishments; thai it must exliuusl one penalty in the
case alluded to beforo it can resort to tho other; that
a statute poiots out the terms ol tho ponuity and It
must bo stricily pursued, and that wbeuovcr a
statute creates ah oU'encu and expressly provides a
punishment the statutory provisions must bo lolluwed
out strictly and expressly. Ho then went on to say
'.nut in two cases which te had bolero Justice Davis in
Ibis Court In 1873 the s.uno Identical question was
trgued, aud Judge Davis decided that the Court of
spucuil Sessions or any other Court had no power to
InIlict tho puuisuuieul of line and Imprisonment at
the same time that the Orel punishment would have to
be Indicted, and if tho prisoner rolust d to pay such
One then the duty of tho Court was to Impose tho im
prisonment. He thou added that if the nrisoner has
been convicted of a lormor like olfencc yet that cauuot
militate agninst him in this question, as the statute
does not make any provision applicable to tho prisouer
Polinsky. As to tho Board ol lluulth, ho claimed that
ft bus uo power to pass any ordinance making u mis
demeanor or creating an offence whore the Legislature
has already created an ofleuce ol u like nature, iho
Legislature being tho highur power aud the ucts of tho
Bourd of llealih being subordinate to Iho acts of
tho Lrgislaiurc, Assistant District Attorney 'lracey
made an elaborate reply, combining strenuously tho
various points raised by tho opposing counsel. Ho
cited a statute making such violation of tho Bourd of
Health ordinances a misdemeanor, ana iheroioro pun
ishable by line and imprisonment. Judge Douoliue
took the papers, stating that ho would render his deci
sion to-duy.
HIS FIRST TRICK AT THE WHEEL.
A case ol an amusing character, in the light of the
contradictory nature or tho evidence and the manner
of testifying by thn principal witness, came up for
trial yesterday belure Judge Sheridan, of tho Marino
Court. It was a seaman's case, tho coinplalnaut being
Jaincg E. Lowe, a sailor on board the American ship
Southern Chief, und Captain Howard M. Higglu tho
defendant. The suit wus brought to rocover $1,000 lor
?llegea assault aud battery on tne high seas. The de
fendant, as he appeared In court, was un object of
some wonderment to the members ol tho Bar present
aud to the crowded room gonerully. Ho
stood six foet five and a half lucbes la his
stocking feci, and weighed 205 pounds avoirdupois,
and withal ua straight and erect as the pines in (tie
forests of his native State, Maine. The pialntlO gavu
his testimony in the purest cockney and uinuH'd the
Court immensely Villi his reckless treatment ol the
Queen's English, lie said he joined the ship at Liver
pool on the 3d ol March Ihsu
"Please state," asked the counsol, "the circum
stances of the assault."
"Ou the 7ib, it being my watch," be replied, "I took
my second 'triok' at thew'eel; they were then nout
lour days; Uh-weather was 'any and tho wiud buu
steady; the w'eol jerked about; Captain 'Iggins came
hall (tiitl basked me a-what 1 was a-doittg with ilio
ship; hi auswored, ?Noiheu, ur;' ho told uto lu steer
close to the wind' 1 'ua the sans a-sbaking,
he suddenly takes a 'old of my nose; then lie leta inu
'ave an 'it In the lieye, ami another in my ribs that
knocked the wiud a'uiosi outer mo; then iho mule 'e
semes halt, and the captain says to him if bevor I
some* a'uoar the w'eol again to take a club and club
my 'ou huff."
"What Is tho difficulty with your nose?" pursued
the counsel.
?'Ab, no difficulty," roplicd the witness, looking
bewildered una greatly puzzled, and after drawing a
long breath coutinuiug, "no dlfUculty us ut kuowa ol."
"After tho captain pulled your nose?"
"Ah, baiter that hit wusu't us hit ortor to be."
Four witnesses swore that they saw tho plulnllfT im
mediately alter the alleged ill usage aud that he pre
sented a black rye and thai be complained of sore ribs.
"?Vhat wus the difficulty with his nose?" nuked tho
counsol. "1 didn't know of any dlfUculty bo had with
his nose." uuswored the wituo-s; "the only diUiculty
ho hud waa with Inu captain. " For llic delenco iho
raptdlu swore lie never touched or laid a bund upon the
complainant during tho whole voyage. Four witnesses
swore that ihoy r?m< inhered the 7th uf March ut a -a;
saw the plaiutiif and didn't ohservo as much as a
scratch upon und never heard him complain of his ribs
or that he hud been abused by the captain, ntid knew
nothiug about tho diflluuity about hi* nose. The jury
were out but u short time and brought in a vordict lor
tho dolcudnnt.
IMPORTANT TO MILITIAMEN.
There has already been published In the Hkrald the
fact of the disbanding of Company A, of the Hevcnty
first militia regiment, by its Colonel. An appeal to the
Courts, since made In tho case, promises to settle a
question of no small Importance to members of our
militia regiments. Some of the members of the dis
banded company claim that through Us disbandment
they aro no longer uiembera of the regiment. It
will ho understood that the reason of the disband
ing of the company was iho fact of tho
membership ol tlie company having boen reduced to
below forty-six, the minimum number required to
complete a company's organization. Upon ihe dis
band ng of tho company its laiu members were con
signed 10 other companies of the rogimcnu The de
termination now is (o bring the mutter to a logul test
wheiher such disband'ng ol the company absolves Us
members from inriher military duty. Among
tho-o reluslug to do duty lu nuy oihor company was
John Si arch. This rocusuul member was accordingly
fined tor nou-aitcntiou to his military duties,
aud in doiault of payment ol such fits
was lodged lu Ludlow .Street Jail. A writ
Bl habeas corpus lias hi en procured, and through pro
recduigs under such writ it is proposed to deicrinino
the question. It is claimou on tho one hand that Ilio
colonel, having dishauuod a comp my, has no longer
soy jurisdiction over lit d islam ded members, aud
consequently cannot compel Ihem to <lo their duty,
flu the other hand, It Is insisted that by an act of Iho
Legislature u colonel ol a regiment has power to dis
band uny comp my when below the minimum number
and assign the members to other companies. Tho
caso waa to have been argued yesterday be tor a Judgo
Donohuo, but owing to ttio engagement ol counsel was
postponed until to-inorrow.
COUPON BONDS QUANDARY.
Ferdinnnd P. Dempfll Is tho owner of certain drat
rorigngo bonds, with coupons attached, of tho St,
bouts, Iron Mountain and Southern R.dlwny Company,
in un utllauvit submitted yesterday to Judge Douoliue

furred first to ask counsel about it. Mr. Dempiil
SlMiOs, furthor, that Mr. Thomas Allen. President of j
the railway comp uy, told him that there liad licen a
sale id some of the mortgaged binds, and tlmt the pro
ceeds of such sale had been placed In thu hands
ol ihe trust company lor tho purpose of

b iwever, makes affidavit that the.-e Is no money
or otner properly of the railway company iu the
h ni- of inu trust company, aud that tin; miiur is not
Imiehtcd to ilie railway OOinpuny in any sum. As the
n .iter appears u little complicated, und with a view to
gut at the truth, Judge Donohuo yesterday granted an
i ruer to show cause why some olllcor ol the Union
l'rnat Company should not bo examined as to the facia
ol tie- case. This order was mada returnnblo to
morrow.

RUMSELLERS, BEWARE!
A IMAL BOMBHH ELD AMONG THE UQUOn
OEAI4UU LICENSE* Of NO VALUE?NEW
LEGISLATION NEEDED?A TEMPKBANCE CBU
8ADE PllOMlEtD.
A caso ot general interest was determined yester
day lu the Court of General Sessions, Judgo .-uther
land presiding. Tiie recent decision rendered by ibe
Court of Appeals as to tha power of tbo Board or Ex.
eiae Commlsmoner. to Issue certain licenses ha* uatu
rully rsised s coinraotion, and will doubtless result
In the adoptiou of some measure by tbu Legis
lature that will meet tho pendiug dllllculiv. It
would appour that some years ago Mr. W. U. Mundy, a
lawyer, insisted that the Board of Exclso had not tiie
power to grant Hocuses to saloon keepers to sell intox
icating liquors othor than alo and beer to bo druuk on
tho premises. Legal points were preparod on the sub
ject, and, lor the purpose ol testing tho matter, an up
plication was made to Judgo Wandcll at the Tombs lor
the arrest of the Commissioners of Excise. No Imme
diate action was unen, and later Mr. Mundy made a
slmllur application before Judgo Morgan, the
complaint being Unally dismissed. With consider
able persistency Mr. Mundy then appeared be
fore Judgo Wheeler at Kordbain and lodged u
complaint against James Oibuey lor selling liquor
drunk on his premises by way of testing tho question
at Issue. Giimey was held under bail to await trial.
Tho legal points takon wero dually susiumod by tho
Court of Appeals. It was urgued that as far back as
the government oi tbo New Netherlands In the seven,
tceuih century au oxciso law was passed conilning the
sale o! liquors to be drunk on tho protnisos to inn
keepers, aud giving the privilege to sell small moasuro
to bo curried awav to storekeepers. It was lurtbor
claimed that th.s distinction bud been maintained with
tho exception ot onoortwo short intervals up to tho
year 1850. Tho law undor which the defendant Gibnoy
wus Indicted was passed lu 1807. Tbo old policy ol the
law was revived by this act, which continuod in lull
force throughout the State until 18(1,1 In that year
tho Legislature onactcu what wus known us tho "Boor
law, "which gnvo bourds of exclso tbo power to llconso
any person to soil beer to bo druuk on the promises.
In tho year l?8tl tho Metropolitan Excise law was
parsed allowing licenses to bo granted lo "any persons
; good mom! character," but u,d not re.or mdrmk.ug
on the promises. H would soeiu that this l.nv an

?estchester county, the law ol 1857 bo na
iS7rtliDnU?'!l'ir''U1!l"'?l lll? btt!u,lc<iol the State, in
1870 a now law was passed, which was almost Identical
^aVn"ri roV"''V,U Kxul,lu '"w, and embodied to a
great extent the law ol 1857. "except such purls us
were Inconsistent" with the law oi IS7U lk"o the
dilllculty commenced, and tbo question soon suggested
Itself as to what portions of tne law of 1857 were
cousisi.nl with the law of L-70. it was claimed J
Mr. Mundy that tho law ol 1867 croatcd two kinds of
,?'"rtrH'!T0n0 'l!1 "Idkoeper's licuoeo, to sell liquor to
be drunk on tho proinisoi; tho other a slorokoeD
?? " ,pnw0 to ,,e"' "ui not "? be drunk on tho prem
L .. ,urln,>r claunod that tne law ol 1870
permitting licenses to "any persons of good moral
being silent ou tbo subject or drinking on
the piuinisos, did not grant ibo privilege. It wuh also
urged that the law ol 1857 lorbude it, and that that law
whs ro-etiuciod and tnnde pnrt ot the law ol i?;o. Tho
construction of this law as thus presented lias been
uphold by iho Court of Appeals, und Mr. Mundy has
therefore carried Ins point. Tho caso taken ti> tho
