QUARREL AMONG BROTHERS.
A revolver as an argument.
AfCKii.vuD, July 8
Some sensation was caused in Queen street on Saturday evening by thediscovery that a man named Henry Blonstein was behaving in a highly dangerous manner with what was believed to be a loaded revolver. Several bystanders quickly closed with him, and he was placed in a cab, and removed to the lock-up. He appeared at the Police Court this morning charged with threatening to shoot Solomon Bloustein. His counsel asked for a remand until Wednesday. Accused and complainant are brothers, and were partners, and little passages of arms were always passing between them. This was merely one of many. “ That is so,’’ replied Solomon, “ but nothing so serious as this. I don't want to press the charge, but I really must appeal >to your Worships for some .restraint being put upon him, otherwise I shall not be safe.”
“It is just a novel way of debt-col-lecting,” remarked, Mr Lnndbn. There is a matter of £lO between the two brothers, complainant being the borrower and my client the lender. He thought, nerhaps, that an empty revolver might facilitate repayment.” - An adjournment was granted.
