SMALL DEBTS COURT.
Richard Marks sued certain officers of the
Laggan races on 26th January last, of which T.
Francis and R. Dooley were two, for the amount of
a prize which was alleged to have been paid to one
who had previously run his horse on an unregistered
course, and had thus unlawfully obtained the prize
money.
Mr. Carter, who appeared for the defendants,
pleaded not guilty; but the plaintiff,: being totally
unable to conduct his case, was non-suited, the
bench remarking that so peculiarly intricate a case
should never have been brought into court without
the assistance of a legal adviser, and the plaintiff
was reminded that he still possessed power to do so
should he think fit.

Alleged Cattle-stealing.
At the Murrumburrah Police Court on Thurs-
day, Richard Marks was brought up on remand
before Messrs. S. Robinson, P.M., and T.
Barnes, J.P., for being in possession of 32 head
of cattle reasonably supposed to have been
stolen. From the evidence of Constable Collins,
it appears that his attention was drawn on the
19th of January to the movements of Marks,
whom he found to be in charge of the cattle,
travelling without a permit, and unable to
produce the usual sale note. The defendant
also gave a wrong name, that of William Brown.
His different explanations being very contradic-
tory, his detention was considered necessary. He
alleges having bought the cattle for £90 on
the road from Dalton, from a man named Ryan,
whom, he admits, being unable to know again
by sight. He had completed the sale of them in
Murrumburrah for £104; but the agent, Mr.
Bourke, in whose hands the cattle were placed
for sale, having communicated with Constable
Collins, deemed it unadvisable to hand over the
money, and Marks was at once apprehended.
The police not being prepared to conclude their
case, applied for a remand until the 3rd instant,
which was granted, bail being refused. The
cattle are branded C over K, JML, WD over D,
PD over O, HB over O, PDO over O, HM, HB
over H, and several young ones are unbranded.
On Thursday last, before the P.M. and Mr. T.
Barnes, J.P., Marks was brought up on a charge
of cattle-stealing. Mr. A. Betts, of Goulburn,
appeared on behalf of the prisoner. The
evidence given by Constable Collins and Mr. J.
Bourke at the previous trial was read. Mr. Hay,
of Woodville, claimed 11 of the 32 head of
cattle in the possession of the police as his
properly, and said they were portion of a lot
purchased by prisoner, a Mr. Paget, and himself
at a cattle sale, in Goulburn, about three years
ago. Mr. Hay stated that he had known Marks
for about fifteen years, and, as far as he (Hay)
knew, always bore an excellent character.
Another witness, Mr. Bray, who resides near
Crookwell, also recognised some of the cattle,
which he believed were the property of Mr Hay.
The prisoner, who reserved his defense was
committed to take his trial at the Quarter
Sessions, to be held in Yass on the 14th instant.
Mr. Betts applied for bail, which was granted
as follows-- prisoner in £200, or two sureties of
£100 each.--Signal.
