THE COURTS.
The Testimony in the Clutter Case all in—Argument to Begin This Morning.
The Clutter divorce case, that lias been dragging slowly along during the last two weeks, will soon be a thing of the past, and the public is greatly to be congratulated on this fact. The testimony was finished last night, and the arguments will begin this morning at nine o'clock. Judge McNutt and Judge Shelton will address the court for the plaintiff, and Hon. James T. Johnston and Hon. Wm. Mack for the defendant. Considerable time will be required to review the testimony, and the arguments will probably not be finished until to-morrow.
James M. Clutter, the defendant, was further cross-examined by Judgd' McNutt yesterday morning. He testified that his wife had full control of his business when he was away, and of her performance of the duties entrusted to her he had no complaint to make. He was questioned at great length concerning his property.
Clutter swore, on re-direct examination, that two years ago this fall he lost $8,000 in his business that he paid
$500
city tax yearly told 'Squire
Lockman that he wouldn't trust Harper or any other man who would break up his family.
Depositions of Mr. and Mrs. Covey, of Kokomo, Ind., on behalf of Cfutter, were then offered in evidence, and defendant then rested his case.
T. W. Harper was first placed on the stand by the plaintiff, for the purpose of offering rebutting testimony. He swore that he was at Clutter's house but three times last spring, not more than twenty minutes in all, and never later than nine o'clock at night. Each time he went on business for Clutter. Did not wear dark clothes or a plug hat last spring, but light clothes and a sloucli hat. He was cross-examined by Jas. T. Johnston. "Katie May testified she was at Clutter's on June 8th last, when Harper called about or 7 o'clock Harper did not remain there but a few minutes Clutter was hot home she slept with Mrs. Clutter that night on cross-examination she said the 8th of June was Monday. She saw Harper there only one night.
Eugene V. Debs testified that last spring Harper wore a slouch hat and a light suit of clothes.
Judy Thorman testified that Harper got a light suit at Schloss' store on June 6th last and previous to that had been wearing a light suit. On crossexamination he said it sometimes takes six weeks at his establishment to fill such an order.
After the noon adjournment Mrs. Lucy Clutter was placed on the stand. She testified that T. W. Harper had been at the house but three times, and then on business with her husband, and never at a late hour. Dr. Jordon had never been at the house, and had never treated her for any venereal disease.
E. O. Whiteman testified to haying seen Mrs. Clutter in Pierce & Harper's olKce several times on business.
David Conover, who had had charge of Dr. Jordon's books, had seen Mrs. Clutter at the office three or four times. A lady accompanied her each time, and went with her into the consultation room.
Dr. J. S. Jordon swore that he had never been in Clutter's house, didn't know where it was may have been in gome's drug efcorc, nob for three or four years. Had a conversation with Clutter alias Jones in his oflice at Indianapolis, but Harper's name was not mentioned. Did not say he was treating Mrs. Clutter for a venereal disease never did treat her for a venereal disease. Did not have any conversation with the Robertson's at any time. Was in Indianapolis on the Sth of June.
The defendant, J. M. Clutter, was again called and examined by Judge McNutt. He testified that lie had visited Darlington and Kokomo to obtain the depositions of the Coveys did not pay them any money for these did not promise to whipped Simpson Beeclier for asking his wife to take a buggy ride, and making an insulting proposal: could prove that lie did whip Beeclier.
Quite a discussion arose at the question, by Judge McNutt, as to where he had whipped Beeclier. Mr. Johnston objected to tho question, and Mr. McNutt made a stirring speech, in which lie characterized the depositions as perjuries said that he proposed to follow the question up, and prove that the attack on Beeclier was part of a made-up plan, between he and Clutter that the latter paid Beeclier to make the insulting proposal to Mrs. Clutter.
Mr. Johnsonsaid the Judge's speech was intended for the crowd and not for the court. No lawyer with any sense of duty or practice would go out of the way to attack witnesses or charge them with perjury.
Judge McNutt asked Mr. Johnson to address his remarks to the court, and not to himself.
The court ruled that the question should be answered. Clutter then swore tlfat he did not pay Beeclier any money to attempt to seduce his wile. The fight between Beeclier and himself took place at Thirteenth-and-a-half and Main street. Beeclier drew a revolver three or four times, witness knocked him down, and he got up and ran across the street. Did not hear Beeclier say, "tlied—d s—nofab—li whipped me for doing a job that he paidnie for." My wife told me on Saturday of Beeclier's proposal, and I hunted liim until Thursday.
The court announced that all the evidence must be in before adjournment., and both sides rested their case. Argument will be commenced this morning. •Justice T.ockman.

AN ACTOR'S WOES.
Married for Six Dnys, Deserted by His Wife, and an Applicant for a Divorco.
George A. Osborne, the German comedian now playing an engagement at the Atlantic theater, was married last Friday evening to Nettie Malcolm, commonly known as Nettie Struble, a dining-room girl at the St. Clair house. Yesterday, after a married life lasting six days, Osborne filed a petition for a divorce. The complaint cites the facts above narrated, and charges the defendant with cruel treatment, desertion and adultery, asserting that she is a common prostitute. Mrs. Osborne deserted her liege lord on Tuesday morning, and left, for parts unknown. Osborne was seen by an Express reporter at the Atlantic theater last night, just before going on the stage. When questioned as to tho truth of the report that she had stolen a large sum of money from him, be declined to answer.' He stated, however, that she had left a letter in which she said that she had married for an object, and having attained that, was done with him. Osborne appears to be a very gentlemanly fellow, and evidently lias been deceived by the woman, who has been a wellknown character for several years past.

He is supported by Miss Patti Ross, a pleasing little soubrette, and an excellent company. They have been playing in Indianapolis this week, and are highly spoken of by the papers of that city.
Old Shipmates.
New Year's afternoon and evening, Frank Mordaunt will appear in his drama, "Old Shipmates," which has been completely rewritten since last given here. The New York Times says of it: ilr. Morris's bright, wholesome and entertainihg play, "Old Shipmates," has been popular at the Fourteenth Street theatre, especially when one takes the time of year into account The play seems even better than it is in contrast with the remarkable works which have been inflicted upon the stag# lately.
Janauseliek.
Tuesday evening Madame Janauschek and company will appear in "Mary Stuart," of which the Cleveland Herald says: "The opera house last night was completely filled to witness the powerful acting of Madame Janauschek in Mary Stuart. The world wide reputation of this artiste silences any effort at criticism, and we can only record the brilliant performance of this remarkable actress. She has no superior living, we believe, and we have never seen her equal as a tragedienne. Her impersonation of the prisonbound and persecuted, but still queenly, Mary Stuart was grand. The intensity of passion was expressed in every uttered syllable, in every look and gesture, and the heart of the audience last evening beat for poor Mary Stuart, forgetting Janauschek. Of the support. Miss Emmie Wilmot, as Queen Elizabeth, was especially excellent. The.Messrs. Chaplin and Stuart being aiso worthy of supporting the star.
Atlantic Theater.
The audiences at this place have been unusually large this week. A straight variety bill is presented, and meets with hearty applause.

James O'Neill was feted at Cincinnati, his native place. Five recalls rewarded liis first appearance there last Sunday night.
Charles D. Wright, of the Inter Ocean, is writing a new play for M. B. Curtis. It is expected to prove a "Kosher" drama.
The management of the Madison Square Theater, in New York city, has leased Baldwin's Theater, San Francisco, to begin in January.
Carriers' New Year's Address. The season of the year is now here, and the day soon will be, when tho Express carrier presents his annual ad dress. This is a document in his eyes exceeding in importance the message of the president or the ukase, decree or speech from the throne of any potentate. And well it may. It is tlic time, after :t year's service, the persevering little fellows ask of you a recognition of their faithfulness. Words of encouragement are good, and are appreciated, but they don't go as far as a quarter or a halfdollar. The Express this year has prepared for the carriers an address far ahead of anything ever issued in this region, and the cost of getting it out is thereby increased. In view of this, the little fellows will heartily appreciate the generosity of their patrons when making their annual calls on Monday morning.
The Polytechnic.
There were quite a number of visitors to the Rose Polytechnic shops yesterday, to seethe machinery in the carpenter shop in motion. Prof. Cobb, superintendent of this department, had charge of the machines, and explained the workings satisfactorily to the visitors.
Population of Franco and Prussia. While the population of France is stationary that of her neighbor across the Rhine shows an amazing rapidly of increase. Prussia has doubled her population in sixty years and the total increase in the German states has averaged over half a million for the past five years. Germany at the same rate of increase will have 60,000,000 by the year 1900. At the same time there is an enormous emigration from Germany and very little from France. The proportion of births is one and a half per cent, larger in Germany than in France. The only increase in French population is in the largo towns, while in Germany it is observed as much iu the country as in the city.
