A COURT SENSATION. Tbt Fonntin of the Grind Jury Complains That Its Secrets Kara Been Divolged. A CHANCE FOR MORE TROUBLE. "Mattie Palmer to Retain Possession of Her Children. MONEY LOST.

NOT STOLEN. Salt for Insurance A Fourth-Street Jeweler Assigns. A very unusual teens was enacted in the Circuit Court -room at the adjournment of the grand jury yesterday, which attracted a great deal of attention and caused much comment. After tbt forsmanof the grand jury bad reported the indictments and dismissals, Mr. 11m an addressed the Court and stated that some member of the grand jury bad disclosed to some one on the entsido bow the members lad voted on the indictment against the Louisville Press Company, Y.

E. Allison and George W. Smith, lie said that if there was no protection for a grand juror be desired to be relieved of further service on the jury. becoming a little more emphatic in his statements, Mr. Uilman said be bad been approached by Mayor Keed, who stated that ho knew how they bad voted, and proceeded to comment upon their action.

Mayor Keed bad been summoned before the jury, and questioned as to which member had disclosed another member's rote, but he declined to gire the source of bis information, and had been permitted to go. Judge Jackson stated, in response to Mr. Uilman 's request to be relieved, that be bad particularly charged the grand juors that each one was to keep secret his own vote and that of 'other grand jurors on matters that ware brought before them, and that it was a contempt of coart for any member to make any such disclosures. If a witness is summoned before the grand jury and declines to answer questions propounded, be sbouJd be brought into court by the foreman, and the question propounded distinctly stated, and if the court was of the opinion that witness should answer the question, the answer would be coerced; that the grand jurors are amply protected if the law as stated is complied with, and as the' grand jury had adjourned till Thursday, the matter could be brought np on that day. If any witness de-' dines to answer questions propounded, let him be brought into court in the manner indicated.

The following indictments were returned by the grand jury: Robbery, David. Payne and Charles Taylor; shooting and wounding with intent to kill, John Black; malicious cutting, Rosa Biglow. MATTIE PALMER'S CHILDREX. Mattie Palmer, tbe plain till in the novel suit instituted in the Chancery Court Friday to her marriage to Wra. Montgomery declared void on the ground that be was not a fall-blooded white man, appeared in the CircuitCourt yesterday and filed a response to Montgomery 's application for a writ of habeas corpus for his children.

Her response eta forth the facta contained in her chancery petition, and denied Montgomery's right to tbe writ while the matter in controversy was pending in tbe Chancery Court. She alleged that he was seeking through the writ to get possession of the children, in order that he might remove them beyond tha jur- lsdictioD of the court before which her suit was pending. bearing a brief argument by Montgomery's attorney. Judge Jackson dismissed tbe writ, holding that it was a plain, proposition of law that when a case was pending before a court having jurisdiction, another court should not interfere. "I will certainly not try a cast tnat is pending before the Chancellor," said Judge Jackson, in conclusion; and then Maine Palmer, accompanied by ber father and mother, led ber two bright little boys out of the court-room.

She is a woman of remarkable beauty and intelligence, and was very Ladylike in her manner. THE HI.VDCRjiON BRIDGE TROUBLE.

Fnget, tbe Maker of Millions of "Queer" Money, Held in $10,000 Bonds. The Story of His Apprehension as Told in Court Alonzo Fnget, the counterfeiter, was tried yesterday before Commissioner Bam Crail, and was held to answer in tbe sum of 10,000. At the Government has a way of requiring genuine and not counterfeit money for its security, the patriarchal old sinner was put behind -the bars again to await bis trial. Yesterday morning tbe old man at first walked restlessly up and down the court-room while awaiting tbe arrival of the witnesses in tbe case, who had to come from Iexiagton and Versailles. While, tbe Com- inissioner and the thirty-five or forty spec- tators were waiting, the prisoner retired to the corner of tbe room to consult with his counsel.

After some delay the witnesses arr.ved, and the case was gone into wta Col. McKee conducting the defense. CoL McKee announced that be desired to reserve tbe privilege of sending for and introducing expert engravers, if he should deem it necessary after an examination of the currency plates, which he understood tbe Government purposed to introduce as evidence. Hp asked that a summons be issued for Kobert Howell, an engraver of this city, which was done. Tne witnesses for tbe Government were also separated, upon motion of the defense.

The first witness was Claud Carr, of Lexington. He spoke of Fuget as Colonel, and said he bad known biiu since February last. He described how- he met the prisoner and obtained his confidence. Fuget told biiu he could make bills of the denomination of (1, t-i, to and $''U. Tbe witness aai Fuget bargained to work together, the former agree-lug to furnish tbe necessary money to provide materials and to give Fuget a place where he could work.

ugot said that with tbe plates in bis possession be couid make 30, 000 a day. lie said he would make the inks necessary for tbe work, aud could procure tbe paper, or could even put the silk threads in tbe paper and make it look like the genuine article. Tbe witness procured a. house in Lexington, where he wanted Fuget to work, but tbe latter refused to come to town. Finally the witness and J.

T. Kose secured the old poor farm of Woodford county, aud Kose took the prisoner and bis tools, over there. Kose and the witness then put in a crop for the old man, so that there would be no suspicion of the real cause for his presence there. Tbe witness and Kose consulted Senator Ulackbum as to what they should do. Cast week they sent luf ormalion to United States Marshal Gross, aud arranged with ban for Fuget's capture.

Tne witness met the Marshal at Midwuy, and drove him to the point where they met Fuet. On cross-examiuatiou tbe witness said that be bad done all tue work on bis own responsibility aud without instructions from auy oilicer of tbe Iroveriuueul. Mr. rail, tbe Coroner of essumine county, had told the witness that a reward of 6,000 had been offered for Fuget's capture, aud it was in the hope of ginuiug this sum that he and Kose had done the work. Kose and he had spent about in carrying out their plans.

The witness iJentmed some of Fuget's plates for counterfeiting. Joliu I. Kose was next lie said: "1 know the accused by the name of F'uzee. I met him in March at Air. Chit's, iu lxington.

Ue bad some currency plates and a sack of tool in his possession. Heiaid be could make a million dollars en those piates in four monies, und would give us half of it it we would pay the expenses. We agreed to it, and 1 moved him down to a farm which 1 bad rented. He kept bis tools buried somewhere, and never lot us kuow where they were concealed. I spent lour or five hundred dollars on him altogether, aud Mr.

Carr about ha.it as much. Mr. Carr told iu that there was a reward of $20,000 for Fuot's capture, and I acted upon this information aloue. Carr and 1 were partuers in the matter, and expected to diyiae. the rewaid.

When we bad uotilivd Marshal Gross, and arrangements bud been made to take Fuet last Friday night, 1 told Fuet that 1 had made arrangements to go over to my uncle's, where we could do some work that night. 1 called for nun in the bugy, and he put bis tooi in it. I then drove oil to meet the Marshal. The witness was subjected to a vigorous cross-examination, but stuck to bis original story without any material variation. Capt.

Gross, testiiied to the circumstances of the arrest, in accordance with the accounts heretofore published. After an argument by Col. McKee to the point that the evidence failed to show any crime actually committed by the prisoner, and that the law could not take cognizauca of his iutentions, uo matter" wbal they were. Commissioner Crail held Fuget over in the sum of flO.OoO. The penalty as laid down by the United States lie vise Statutes is a iiue of not more thnn OOO or imprisonment at hard labor not more than 15 years, or both.

W. H. Gait says ba baa not finished the swill-milk fight. Tha cases in tbe City Court were decided against bim last week, but ha will take aa appeal to the Circuit Court. "The wrong man was selected for a test ease," said tha Doctor, "and he had the advantage of us in the trial.

I am thoroughly satisfied that I was in tbe right, bow-' ever, aa I think tha wording of tha ordinance plain on tha question. These men have been feeding swill to their cattle, and it is clearly injurious to the health of tha consumers. Adults may ba able to resist the bad effects, but babies caa not. I don't mean to give up the fight by any means." As proof of bis ascertions, tho Doctor exhibited tha following letters, which were forwarded to bim from the Xew York Board. He attempted to introduce tbeui as evktence in the trial, bat was not permitted.

The letters explain tnemselves. "Saw Yokk, May P. Gait, 11. Health Officer, LouisviUs, Ky. Dear Sir: Yours it toe 15th inst.

1885. Cyrus son, l. Vhirf instxetor Second Lficixion, Sanitary Bureau My Dear Sir; The inclosed communication from Dr. Gait, Health Otlicer. of Louisville, was received this morning with a note from Mr.

Lucas requesting me to return an answer thereto to you. "The results of my investigation of the effect of distillery slops or 'swill upon, tbe health of milch cows and their milk Were embodied in a special rojxjrt to tha Health Department some years ago. This subject, however, had received the caret ul attention ot scientists, and the condusious arrived at 1 was able to coahrm my own researches. "The natural conditions of tho animal's life are ia every respect grossly violated by this system ot feeding, and the necessary consequences are deranged health, loathsome and often fatal diseases, which render the secretions diseased and the milk, especially, until for human sustenance. Tne cows are really forced to become drunkards, and their milk is, without auy exaggeration, poisonous.

(Such milk, when given to young children. far from furnishing them any nourishment, on the contrary, rapidly undermines the constitution and opens wide the avenue to every prevailing disease. Tha digestive organs especially sutler, and the derangements thus occasioned are not infrequently fatal. Soma of the most serious attacks ot cholera infantum have been directly traced to tbe milk of cows fed on this disgusting refuse of the distilleries. The glaudular system of tbe animals is byper-stimulated by such food and diseases of the kidneys with excessive excretion of uriue and enteric ulcerations, followed by exhausting diarrnuea, often destroy life.

The mammary glands are stimulated to excessive secretion, and, in proportion, the milk proves wof ully deficient in nutruive properties. 'Swill as it ia generally called, has a very insipid taste, a very bluish and watery appearance acid reaction little if any cream, and. such aa there is, lacks consistency. Analysis shows less than one-haif the lowest average per centum of fat in genuiuo milk. Undor tbe microscope the fat globules are scanty, small and tend to aggregation; also panicles of epithelium witu other morphological elements are often observed, and iudjeato clearly tha diseased conditioa of the galactijerous ducts that obtain when cows are given sueu unwholesome food.

"Language sufficiently expressive can not be usu in condemning distillery swiil as food for milch cows, and I can not conceive of any punishment too severe for tha human brute that would wantonly inflict such cruelty on dumb animals as this system of feeding, not to add tho incalculable evils imposed upon bumaa beings when such milk is sold to nourish our children, thus polluting tbe fountain of life at lis very source.

The alarm of fire from box 7 at 3:15 yesterday afternoon was caused by the issue of dense clouds of smoke from the cellar of J. H.

Conner's drug store, at the southeast corner of Spring and Tearl streets. One of tbe clerks. Mr. Cuarley Muliineaux, had gone into the Cellar to draw some asphalt varnish, carrying a lighted lamp with him. Ths gas from the varaish communicated with the lamp and took fire, tne flame extending to tne barrel, cauiii? it to explode with a noise heard three or four squares distant.

Pieces of the barrel Struck Mr. Muliineaux, cutting and bruising his right band baily, and otherwise injuring him. Sir. Conner rushed to the cellar after the explosion to assist bis clerk out, and both esesped with some difficulty, as the names spread rapidly and the smoke was very dense and suffocating. Chief Matthews called out the entire Fire Department when he saw the dangerous character of the fire, as the cellar was tilled with oils, varnish, empty packages filled with straw, and other things equaUy inflammable, and was located in the largest business block in the city.

The department did admirable work, conftaiog the flames to the cellar aad suppressing them entirely within half an hour. The total -loss of Mr. Conner will probably reach S1.O0O, and possibly a good deal more. He is insured. The building is owned by W.

AMVSEMKSTi. Harris' Musettes. Mr. Daniel E. Bandmann, the tragedian, played "Hamlet' to a large audience at Harris.

Museum Hast night. Baodiaann is ah actor whose abilities entitle him to a much higher sphere than that of the dime museum, yet in this place he seems to have made his home, and apparently there is no one who would ask him to it for a bibber and better career. His Hamlet, however, must be taken oa iu merits. Certainly, it is a wonderfully strong wonder -f uUy real, and, for Hamlet, a wonderfully coarse creation. The intellectuality, the idealism of the young Prince's character.

is sunk into tbe reality ot his 'surroundings, and Mr. Bandmann plays the part as a good actor wight play such a character in a modern nielo-draina. A Shakespearean student might object with good cause to such a prostitution of the mas erpiece of the great dramatist; yet there is a strange fascination about a Hamlet of such fleshly proportions. It is not the highest art of the actor merely to justify his own conception of a part by bis rendition of it. There is a higher plane that be should reach; he should be able to see the noblest, most subtle, tha most a bs truce and the broadest in the author's conception.

Few actors are great enough to show us all there is in Jia.uUt; apparentlr Mr. Bandmann himself sees iu the character what no other actor sees there; but be shows us what be sees with great force. and while we may objert to his conception, we must admire his portrayal. Yet even this is by no means faultless. It contains much rant, many of tha scenes being pitched on too high a key, so that the effect on tne senses is like a lorn- and tedious recitation in music.

At times there is a lack of spontaneity in what the actor does, and though bis purpose is clear, tbe etTect fails. Where the ghost first mentions the word murder, Hamlet steps back a pace or two and drops his uplifted sword in fright and That is what Mr. Bandmann meant to do, but hit actioci lost their meaning because he seemed to throw the sword instead of letting it fall, and be stepped back as if anxious to avoid knocking against one of the pasteboard trees of the altogether remarkable forest in which the interview took place. These are the weak points in Mr. Bandmann's Hamlet' Tbe strong features are the great personality of the man, 'his graceful carriage, his quick wit and his passion both of love and hatred.

The business of the stage is in the main good. Miss Beaudet made a pretty and graceful Ophelia, but gave a faint conception of the delicacy and exquisite femininity of the part. Miss Pitzalleu was a good Vueen; Mr. A. R.

Brooks a fair Kin-j and Mr. Bow tell a good Volo- nius. The company was tolerable, but for the Jioteneranx and Guildenttem. One of these kept the audience laughing by the wonderfully contrived cut of his black hair, which was shaved on the sides and left long on the top of bis bend. The stage accessories were poor.

This evening "HamleC' wiU be repeated. This afternoon wiU be played. Neither Mr. Bandmann nor Miss Beaudet appears at the matinee. Amusement Holes.
