OUR AERATED WATER MANUFACTORY is replete with the best Machinery, embodying

troubles that led to the public exposure above referred to.

GRIMBLE Sold BRANDT to China Sugar Refinery shares for delivery on August 31st at $286 per share." It is quite evident when BRANDT bought these shares that he had not the remotest chance in the world of taking delivery at due date unless the quotation went up-in other words he was playing the very nice little game of "heads I win, tails you lose." The price did not "go up," it went down with a run, and at the end of August, China Sugars were a drug in the market at about $265, and with a decidedly downward tendency.

GADER swore in the witness box that he declined to accede to this request, but that he promised to hold them over for a few days; and it is undoubted that the shares, not having been cleared by BRANDT,were sold by Messrs. BENJAMIN and DANDY at $250 per share on September 4th. Mr. DANBY, on oath, slated that be had sold the shares on the date and af the price mentioned. BRANDT, however, claimed that the price on the settling day, 'namely 265 or 266, was the rate which he ought to be charged, and the Acting Puisne Judge, for reasons we venture to consider altogether insufficient, taking into con-

THREE cases of enterprising individuals trying to get rich in a hurry without government permission were before Mr. E. Robinson at the Police Court this morning. The first was that of a boat-woman who was charged with plying for hire without a license. She was fined thirty cents and recommended to hurry up and get the necessary papers.

To prevent any misunderstand. ing it is just as well to add that, from strictly legal standpoint, we quite coincide with Mr. Acting Justice Wisz's decision, on the ground that the defendant'sevidence was the reverse of conclusive; but at the same time we hold that his Honour was bound to give due weight to the admitted facts of the case. In England there is a class of speculators (?) who attend race-meetings for the purpose of betting with ignorant persons on exactly the same principle that BRANDT bought shares from GaIMBLE for forward delivery. They take people's money, and whilst the race is being run they vanish and are not to be found by the backers of the winner. These "roughs" are called "welshers," and when, as sometimes happens, one of the fraternity is caught at his nefarious business, he is by universal consent left to a species of LYNCH law peculiar to the race-course. He is generally stripped, beaten until he is black-rates. and-blue, and then soused Into the nearest horse-pond, the police, on the strength of a perfectly understood if unwritten law, declining to Interfere.
