Cases Before Justice Willard and Justice Smith.

       Before Justice Willard this morning, appeared Junius Howard, charged
with breaking and entering. He was committed in default of $100 bond.
       The case of Rev. W. D. Johnson, colored, on the complaint of Mack
Macklin, charging the minister with carrying concealed weapons and making
an assault with intent to murder the complainant, in the shooting that
occurred last Friday over the complainant’s wife, Justice E. E. Willard
committed the defendant in default of $200 bond.
       Andrew Epps and the head waiter of the Geneva, engaged in a row and
considerable damage was done to the faces and heads of those involved
before they were parted. The difficulty arose over the pay of Andrew
Epps. He was discharged and given $1 in settlement. Epps thought he ought
to have more and so the trouble began with Sam Saunders the aggressor,
according to Epps’ statement. The case will come before Justice
Willard today.
       Justice Columbus B. Smith committed Sheldon Prichard this morning on
the charge of larceny in default of $50 bond.
       Peter Brown, charged with breaking and entering the house of R. H.
Liggett and stealing an overcoat, was committed in default of $200 bond.
       The case of Daniel T. Tresvant, on complaint of P. Tischler, was
disposed of by the same court. Tresvant is the head-cook of the Placide,
and when Mr. Tischler entered the kitchen of that hotel to get some scrap
meat, the cook refused it to him in a very rough manner. Mr. Tischler
resented the rebuff, and a fight followed in which the complainant was
worsted by the cook. The proceedings yesterday resulted in the
commitment of the defendant and the bond was fixed at $200.
