THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 8, 1872 3 . THE MURDERERS. How Raferty and Perteet Received the News of Their New Trial. The Condemned Peri Terribly Enraged Over the Court’s ¢ Partiality.” Ezcerpt from the Opinion Filed in the Rafferty Case. The news that the Supreme Court had given 10 Messrs. Rafferty and Perteet a new trial for their respective murders, was received by the beneficiaries and general public in an entirely different spirit. The latter regretted that any informality in the trial should have been deered eufficient ground for giving the convicts another Iease of life. The public was prepared fo have & triple execution. It demanded that as little de- lry &5 poesible should ensue upon the conviction of the murderers. It asked that epeedy justice bo meted omt to the breakers Of civil and moral law. It urged that &n exam- ple be made of the three convicted murderers who had been sentenced to death, and that as little enconragement be held out to their imita- ters as could be avoidsd. It waswith sincere re- gret, therefore, that it learned from the momn- ing pepers that a new trial was to be afforded to both these miscreants. On the other hand, both these miscreants Tearnedof their virtual respite with uncon- cealed delight. As the public fumed with impatience and disappointment, they chuclled with satisfaction. They made no effort o re- strain their joy, but each expressed it, if not in & noturel manner directly, by actions expected of them by those who knew their habits, When told of his reprieve, Rafferty grinned and prayed. His grin was long continued and horrible. His preyers—we aro not acquainted with their nafure. A reporter paid a visit to bim, yesterday morning, and conversed as freely with him as the man's dogged obstinacy wonld permit of. He arrived at conclusions reacked by ovasive replies from Mr. Rafferty. When the reporter plied the inevitable question whether e supposed he would get clear of the charge, Mr. Rafferty looked stolid and stupid, snd eaid, *Idon't know.,” YWhen the rgporier gucssed he smight, he seid sgain “I don’t know.” When the reporter asked if the decision of the Supreme Court pleased him, he broke the monotony by | saying, “Guess so.” The reporier tekicg ! another track, guessed he had & fair triol any | way. . Mr. Bafferty said he did not| Lnow. ~ The _reporter supposed the | result would be the samo a3 which Mr. Rafferty dissented from. It his vanity. What would he have nevw trial for if he had not some_mew testimo to introduco? The reporter * didn't know" this time. Mr. Rafferty did, howeyer. What wasit? the reporter veniured to inquire. “Don't kmow,” continued the guarded prisoner. “* And wouldn't tell if you did,” eaid ihe reporter. *+Oh, Idon't know,” said Mr. Rafferty. *‘ Why not?" queried the_itemizer. “Don't lmow,” retorted the murderer. Infinitely jubilant at Lis suecess in extorting information from Mr. Rafferty, the regorter moved away to interview Perteet, when Rafferty fell upon his knces znd commauniceted intelligence of tho sawo refresh- ing nature to kia Creator.” The substance of | t inierview, as before hinted, the reporier * don’t kmow,” except that he probably express- ed his thanks for the departure of the man with the note-book. Perteet’s faco was as rediant as 2 newly-blacked | ‘boot. It shone sufficiently to -discourage o herd of boot-blecks. Exceptingwhere his mouth broke | the monotony it was a mass of shiny rigritude, | The reporter sugzested that he looked heppy. Perteet didn't wonder at it, seeing Low beppy he felt. How did he feel, ihe reporter & him, and Was met with sach s seraphic out- pouring that he regretied kaving given the poor | Gonvict en opportunity to express himeelf. The | Teporteresked if any one had been to sce him. 01, ves ; his daughter had been to sea him. His daughter had forgiven him,—that is, she did not object to him gny longer. Bhe came (o sco him with 8 filial prompritude that could not be too highly commended under the circum- stonces. Mr. Perteet, by the war, is & philos- opher, and talked upon abstruse social topics in an sbstruge but socisble manner. Capitel pun- ishment be abhorred ss a relic of barbarism. The death-penalty was not a becoming element | of society. On tho contrary, it was demoral- | izing, in his opinion. On tho Sundsy Liquor law be has decided convictions. Were the | saloons closed from Ssturdey night mntil Mondey morning, he bhad not the least doubt that the criminal docket would soon ex- hibit symptoms of attenustion. Whiskey and | the want of money were twin roots of evil, and | should be prehibited. Perteet is of 2 religious 29 well 23 a thoughtfal and hflgx:(g)himl tura of mird, and when enimated by good news. such as s supersedeas or a new trial, 18 apt ¢o'blend his philosophy with bis religion in ap alarming man- ner. It is dificalt to know at times, when ke becomes excited, whether certain phyases are tho at elements of socioty cange; and _ whatker crime or religi tolerance should ba sup- pressed. On polities he hLas also taken 2 firm stand. His remark, when reminded of the past election, savored of religious excitement rather than mere political exuberance. ‘AMen,” ho cried aloud, *‘must die, but principles will live forever.” ‘“You ere 2 philosopher,” remarked the reporter, when an ‘opporiunity offered for soying something, ‘¢ Ob, yes,” paid Per- teat, ¢I havo lved a philoccpher, and shall die s philosopher!” = “ Do you expect to die_in Joliet?” eaid the feporter, | Perteet yielded to & commonplace remark, and Baid there was no telliug. Perhaps he would die | before he got there. He did not much care. He | sould just as readilydie now as at any time, and ‘had made his peace with his Maker, Without Temerking that he might die e violent death be- fore reaching Joliet, the reporter left'him still emiling 2s only an excited gentleman of the col- ozed persuasion, just rescued from the jaws of Geath, can smile. i The same despatch which bronght disappeint- ‘ment to good citizens and joy to Rafferty azd Perteet, contained & paragraph calculated to Tuffie the drooping feathers of one Gregorio Feri, who has been a8 rear standing disconso- late 2t the entrance to Eden 38 most able-bodied Tmen care o be. Peri’s particular offonce was o double murder, and Peri's feelings on the sub- ject2ve naturally acute, especially as ho has been condemned Ly & jury of his own choozing 0 expiate hie ofenses at the end of 8 tough rope in the County Jail. Hehad all along expressed a decided disapproval of cap- ital punishment: gs applied to himself, and rest- | ed secure in the belief that the Supreme Court at Ottawna would share his views. He was not aroused from this gentle illusion till yesterday morning, when TaE TRIBUNE was brought to him, and his fate read. Then, indeca, wero fragments of Ifalisn anathoma urled | round the jail in an irresponsible way. English langunage has always been supposed to be esceptionally opmlent in damnatory expressions, but to compete with Peri's Italian expletives it must be put into cm- phatic hands. A chromastic stroak of objuiga- Tion such as the spectrum could mever equal, wassworn by Mr, Peri. As for the humiliating termination to Lis earthly career, he would have none of it. He tore his bair, spat, dasbed Lim- gelf about his miserable cell, and blasphemed his Maker in Italian, interspersed with tho choicer gnd more emphatic specimens of Anglo- Saxon curses. It is true that he was druuk aztho time, and that his imagination was stimulated to unususl richness of conception, but it does ot alter tho fact that he objects to being made away within Cook County Jail. His sentenco will take effecs on Dec. 6, and tlere will bo an end to his profanity. There is another pereon in the jail accused of the crime of murder, and that perscn is Louisa Boyce, who will come up for trial Nov. 29. The Teporter visited Boyee, and found her smiling sweetly in & loose night garment, ‘which wes not as ‘inclusive in its operations as night garments should be in cold westher. Her hair wes arranged in a eeries of charming rng- lets over ber forebead, and her eyes wore & calm and unrufiled serenity. She greeied the reporler in a mild, persussive tone, and seid she felt like @ littla girl who hed not yet gotup, and sho looked 28 like it as Ber years would let her. She had not & shadow of doubt thst her re- lease was near 2t hand, and she was glsd to hear it 8s 'some of tho prisoners in adjoining cclls were deprayed char- acters, A red-haired nrim who shared her cell took her clay pipe from her mouth zud shook her ennfinimry locks, repeating the last asser- tion of her companion with & £ad and dojected air. But shereplaced the pipe in a few moments and her suavity of demeanor returned. The reporter hied him away from these cheer- Jees regions to the scarcely healthier demain i dently coneidered that where human above, and sought for the States Attorney. Mr, TReod was as bland and cheorful as the disss- trous elections coulc be expected to leave him, but not disposed to be reticent. The reporier suggested that he seemed as happy in his misforlunes as the wretched recip- ients of new trials below. MIr. Reed.sad nothing, but appeared resigned. The first inti- ‘mation he had received of the decisions of tho Supremo Court was a remark from Judge Enowlton that ho bad beaten him (Mr. Reetf). What orders were included in the .opinions he did not know, but would to-day. The change of venume would bring the cases into ZLake County, and in Waukegen, dark with the diecharge of corrupt Aldermen from custody. Perteet, darker in color and in crime than they, and Raflerty, tho complexion of whose guilt is deeper than any, will be tried for their lives be- fore o jury of unprejudiced citizens of Lake County ; end there, if convicted of marder in the firat degree, Perteet and Rafferty will ex- piate their offenses 45 miles from the spot where thoy were committed. The State’s Attorney was anxious to hava the matier settled at once. If permitted to go through the ordinary course of law, the trials would not come off till Feb- ruary, but after a conversation with Judge ‘Williams, Mr. Reed learned that, should he make o request to that effect, the Judge will call & special term of the Court next month. He will make that request as soon as ho knows what the Supreme Court desires in tho case, . The recent elections placed a Staie's Attorney in every county. Formerly, Lake and Cook Counties constituted one judicial county, and Mr. Reed prosecuted in both, He is not compelled now fo prosecute the cases in Weukegan, but can do_so by courtesy, should the State's Attorney of Lake County feel dis- posed to allow him. A number of gentlemen called upon Mr. Reed, resterdey, and boped that | e would not relax his efforts to secure the con- viction and execution of both Pertect and Raf- ferty. Mr. Reed, in reply, has pledged himeolf | to do his utmost to sccure that desirable end for | botl murderers—the rope's end. PATFERTY'S NEW TRIAL. . Otrawa, Nov. 7.—We make the following ex- cerpts from the opinions filed yesterday graut- | ing a new trial to Chrie. Reffesty, The new trial was granted, on the ground that he had been improperiy refused a change of venuo. Speak- ing of the act of the Legislature passed Feb. 21, 1861, the Court says: “We think theexception of capital cases contained in the first section of this amendstory act must_be token as carried into the fourth section; that the words ‘in & criminal cause,’ in the lattor section, mean such a criminal cause as is provided for in the firat section, namely, one where the offense is not punishable with desth, and we feel con- Btrained to doclare, 28 the frue con- struction o0f this = amendetory act of 1861, ns derived {rom comparing together its various sections, that it relates solely to of- fenses which are not punishable with death, and that as to capital cases the old law as to the change of verue in criminal cases remains un- changed.” The Court then proceeds to stato that the old law being notoriously defective, as under it a change of venue wes often resorted io as 3 means of procuring an apquittal from loss of testimony, the Legislature thought it would e sufficient to apply the remedy in cases where the offense was not punishable with death, and hence had passed the act of 1861 ; but they evi- life was in- volved, it would be better to leave the illsof tho old Jaw than remove from the defendant the legal bemefit which he enjoyed un- der that law. As under the old law o change of venue woull bo gronted, the case must be reversed. For that reason all the Court concur in this. The Court then en- ter upon & discussion of the principles involved in the second nssigned error, mamely, thaot the Court below improperly excluded - testimony ehowing Rafferty to have been intoxicated af the time when he committed the crime, and con- clude this part of their opinion in the following words: “So far as the offer went to prove that tho prisoner was infoxicated at the time of the commission of the crime (and a majority of the Court_are of the opinion that the gvidence should have been read) as showing the con- dition of the defendant at the iime, and in that | respect constituting a pert of the record under our statuto, it belangs to the jury to fix the punishment for murder, which may be eithor death by hanging or imprisonment in the Penitentiary for the term of lifo, ora term of not less than fourteen years. 1t is impertant that all the circumstances of the act bo consid- ered, the candition of tho prisoner at the time among the rest, as tending to give character to Jiis conduct, 50 far as they may bo regarded as & part res geste, should be laid before the jury, that, &5 near as may be, they may see the crime asitis, and the preciso complexion of it, in or- der that they may intelligently graduate tho punishment. But proof of intoxication s the other times embraced in the offer, we think, was gruperlymjccted. The judgmext of the Court clow must be reversed, and the cause re- manded.” ] THE REGISTRY OF VOTERS. To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Sm: Yesterday, when tendering my vote at the Twelfth Ward polls, I was informed by the Teqeiver of Yotes that my name was not on the register, and consequently I would be obliged to subscribe to & written effidavit setting forth that 1 was a legal voter in that ward, and that the eaid document would have to be attested by a householder residing in the same ward. TLoiter- ing abont the polls for that purpose until I be- came tired and chilled, I returned home withont voting. Beveral years ago I registered my name on the poll books of the Twelfth Ward, and have voted there at every election sinco without re- registering, and it struck me as being very queer that my name was not now an the books, - After persistent inquiry, the whole matter was made plain to me, as follows: The books of the Trwelfth Ward are, and al- ‘ways have been, in the possession of the Grent party, who bave not been slow to use them to their advantege. .On the eve of every election the ward is thoroughly canvassed, to ascertein the politics of each registered voter. The names of those ascertained to be of the Grent persua- sion are carefully ehtered om the mesw books, while those opposed aro &s carefully omitted. This little dodge yesterday left everything clear for the Administration voters, while many poor Graeleyites (who, like myself, have strayed from the flock of the faithful), rather than go the necessary trouble, abstained from voting. But, my object in addressing this to you is to inquire whether this little prcceedingis in accordance with the registry and other laws regulating elections. SUBSCRIBER. | Caicaco, Nov. 6, 1872, LIGHT WANTED, 1To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune: - Sm: Wo would Like to ask through your col- | umns why the street-lamps npon themain streets | of the West Side are left unlighted of late, part | of the time all night, and, for the past ten days, never lighted until near 9 o'clock. Now, if we ever want lights, it is when thousends are wend- | ing their way homeward by Foot & Walker's | linc, since we sre_deprived of our strect-cars, ete., and nearly all are compelled to patronize the independent line. = F One of our old and honored citizens, Captain G. H. Gibson, was out just after derk last even- ing, and walked off from a eidewalk that is rais- ed three steps above the neighboring ones, and hurt himself quite badly, hrnisinmnd scratch- ing his face badly, and jarring &0 that he has not been ablo to epeak but one word at & time since, althongh he is about £nd_conscious, and tries very hatd to conyere, ~ Wil our ity TFethers sce to this, now that election is over 2 A CrTizex. Omxcaco, Nov. 5, 1672, DELEGATION OF POWER. o the Edilor of The Chicago Tribune: Sm: At the election on Tuesday, at some, if not all, of tho precincts of this city, parties were etationed, armed with written authority from N. T. Gassette, Clerk of the Circuit Court, to sign his name to (Fs,pcrs, and, under such ag- thority, administered oaths to those required to make affidavit before they could vote; and these affidavits were eubscribed, “Sworn {fo, cle., before me, N. T. Gasseite, Clerk: of the Cir- cuit Court.” Objections were made to such affi- davits by the Liberal Judges, but they were overruled, and the afiidavits end votes received. At our precinet, over 150 such votes were taken. Can an officer delegate the power to adminis- ter an oath? This thing has been done at for: mer clections, and & littlo light on the subject is necded in the community, as welt 23 for said Clerk. ELEcTION JUDGE. CHICAGO, Nor. 6, 18 —The Huddersfield (England) School Board is & very uncertain body. A short time ago o set of hiymns for use in board schools was pre- gented for its approbation, and it was at first thonght there was nothing sectarian in the little dittics, but on further examination, the Board concluded to reject the whole set, inasmuch as the Doxolof ocenrred at the end of almost all the hymns recommended, EXPELLED. The Board of Trade Votes to Slightly Reduco Its Mombership. Mr. Baxter, of Meyer, Baxter & Co., Expelled. The Other Members of the Firm Retained on the Board. * The case of Myer, Baxter & Co. was regumed before the full Board of Trade yesterdzy at 3 p. m. President Preston announced that Myer, Baxter and Co. would have zn opportunity to present their defence. 3fr, Myer said that Mr Gurney, who had their case in charge, would not be present for a few minutes, and in the meantime Mr. Baxter would reply to Mr. Culver. MR, BASTER SATD they desired to offer in evidence tho affidavits contained in the pamphlet compiled. by Mr. Swett, copies of which were in the hands of the President. He felt it necessary to correct the unfair misrepresentations and mis-statements of Mr. Culver. The charge was & very seriuos one. M. Culver said they were convicted, and hed so published to the world in the morning papers, whereas they had not been convicted, and he be- lieved they would not be. He charged A. O. Ticlmor with perjury, and that his evidence was & fabrication from beginning to end. Ticknor swore that the defendants would not arbitrate, when he had at the time in his possession & let- ter from Myer, Baxter & Co. offeting toleave the matter to selected disinterested parties. He reed from the argument of Mr. Culver, who said they were guilty, and contended that the state- ment was false, and the evidence and facts would prove it. Mr. Culver told the speaker the evening before that he (Culver) would swoar the defendants were guilty, - and thete was no doubt but ke would swear, but that would not make it true. The proposal that the firm should place £€8,000 in the hands of Ticknor was rather unreasoeable. Who would place $8,000 unprotected in the hands of A. O. Ticknor? - Mr. Geib'had sworn to the de- livery of the offer of arbitration to Ticknor, and to Ticknor's rofusal to accept the proposition. Ticknor was entirely unworthy of belief. TICENOR WANTED TO BLACKMAIL THE, and they would not submit. Mr, Culver talked 2s if the Directors had prejudged the case, and were determined to find them guilty anyway. McWhinney swore, in Indiang, thet he was sick and could not appear a8 witness. That was why the attempt to arbitrate was postponed. He hoped to have got Ticknor's conmsont to have sll the disputes between them pubmitted fo arbitration at the same time, and the speaker had so informed the Directors. Mr. Swett_had prepared a stato- ment at his (the speaker’s) request, having been his attorney for years. The statement had been submitted to the Board without comment. He offered to leave THAE SCRANTON-LYNN MATTER to Mr. Scranton, but Ticknor would not con-, sent, They only asked that the members should judge tho case impartielly. He had never acked any man on the Board to do anything for him, being perfectly willing to leave tho case to the fair and candid judgment of their fellow mem- Ders. He regretted being forced to proye Tick- nor guilty of perjury. Somo of the statements and acconnts were nnalyzed. He submitted the cnse withont foar or trepidation on his part. [Applause.] Somo afidavits wers formally submitted, Mr. Culver said he had a fow words to say regarding Mr. Baxter's sssertion, that he had made misstatements. e would controvert them seriatim, Mr. Brainard thought it was not proper for Mr. Culver to talk then. Hocould do so when tho defence got through. It was right that the dffend;mhls Suld go on with their defence. (Ap- plause). Mr. Culver was willing to postpono his re- marks, 3D, T. D. GURNEY SAID there was not & member of the Board of Di- rectars wha he would not vote for,if a candidate, for any office from an archangelship $0 Town Constable, or anything clse, [laughter], 2nd he was sorry to have to disagree with them. | They had put_the testimony of men like Myer Baxter, and Forrey against Aurora O. Ticknor's. He did’ not believe Myer, Baxter & Co. had any- thing more to do with the money in the case than the Dircctors themselves, The testimony showed that the account was entirely between TICKNOR AND BAXTER, and not between Ticknar and the - firm of Myer, Baxter & Co. Mr, Culver had done the defend- ants great injustice in disregarding their testi- monies. Baxter had lent Ticknor §$500 when he had not & friend in the world. Had the Direc- tors any right to discard the -testimony of seven men, accompanied by & written document and accept that of Aurora O. Ticknor? Mgyer, Baxter & Co. could have bought Tick- mor’s paper by the dfi goods box full at 10 cents on the dollar. Hed they wantedto defraud Ticknor, would they not havebought that paper? Alr. Myer stood then without reproach, 28 & man who came to this city, poverty stricken because he had surrendered ;IO ,000 endorsed on notes for which he never gotacent. That was the man whose reputation was to be blasted on God Almighty’s earth by Aurora O. Ticknor. They knew e TICKNOR'S CAREER IN THAT BOARD for the past year, and they could compare it with that of Myer, Forrey ar Baxter, men who mever went back on & trade [applausc]. He knew personally that Tick- nor had in his pocket 2 letter from Myer, Baxter & Co., offering to arbitrate, 8t the moment he’ gwore that they would not arpitrate. He advised Myer, Baxter & Forrey toarbitrate, and they were all ready to doit. He wonld stake his reputa- tion 28 & business man on the assertion that the case Was A PREMEDITATED SCHEME OF BLACKMAIL, p’lmcd by Ticknor against Myer, Baxter & Co. The guestion they were to decide was, if thera was any fraud in the matter. He was hoarse, end they should excuse him & mome: [cries of ¢ Horse distemper,” ¢ Epigoozy.”] ‘Who _ should ay the losses on ‘the trade? With Ticknor it was: simply a question of dollars and cents. He waa not there 85 an attorney for hire, but because he believed Myer, Baxter & Co. were upright, and innocent of the accusations. Letthem read the state- ment of Mr. l‘Ijen ‘Was there 2 member of that Board who could lay his finger on the reputation of Ispac Myer? Did they not believe him? Did they not believe Mr. Rumsey and Mr. Forrey and Mr. Baxter? He would occupy their time no longer but leave the case in their hands. [Pro- longed appleuse]. Cries of “ Next,” ¢ Question,” “Vote.” 3 MR, COLVER SAID ho did assert that Mr. Baxter put off “arbitrs- tion; his authority being the Chairman of tha Committee of Arbitration. When his statement was written he submitted it to the President and Secretary, both of whom eondorsed it as true. He did not say Baxter was guilty, buthe did say the firm was convictad by the Board of Directors. Mr. Baxter had made so many statements, and contradicted them, that they could not believo what he said about arbitration. [Applense.] [Cries of “vote,] - z CONFUSION. ~'w _Mr. Baxterappeared. [Cries of “Vote,” "“Give him & chance,” ““Go on,” eto.] Ho resd from Mr. Culver's address, and contradicted some of ita statoments. Ho had mado the offer to arbi- trate. [Cries of “Yote,” ¢ Culver,” ete.] Mr. Culver said the offer to arbitrafe was not mado ot the time stated by Baxtes, and the records would prove it. . Mr, Baxter demanded the records. What Mr. Culver said was not so. [Hisses.] 3r. Culver said there wasa question of ver- acity. [Cries of “ vote. "] 3MR. A. C. DOW did not think many men in that Board were pre- pared to vote. There was a grant deal of ambi- itylin that matter. He believed the case should g:ausent to their Board of Arbitration, which would give the matter attention, and settle it. He could not vote intelligently and conscien- tiously then, a8 he did not fully understand the case. Ho did not think the Board of Directors should be such sticklers as to endeavar to pre- | vent the case being sent to the arbi- trators. He would make a motion to refer to the Committee on Arbitration. Mr. John Watterson moved to lay the motion on the table. Lost. 4 Mr. Ranney thought Mr. Davis' motion was out of order. What were they doing for {wo days ? Let them decide the question in the re- port of the arbitrators. | MR. WRIGHT snidthe Directors werenotsticklers, but there was indubitable evidence of intention to defraud‘ and cheat Mr. Ticknor. The rules of the Board compelled the Directors to pursue one courss, to present the defendants and let the full Board do as it thought right. They should vote directly on expulsion, = It was not simply a ques- tion of dollars and cents, but of honor, f apinion that meither th was of opinion that neither the Directors nor Hhio full Board Led o Hght to refer the case to the arbitrators without the consent of both par- ties. They should vote on the question of ex- pulsion, and nothing else. They had the evi- dence all before them, and were fully compe- tent to give their verdict then and there. [Ap- plause.] MR, WRIGHT read the.rule compelling the Directors to report the case to the full Board.. What did the Direc- tors do? Did they do their duty? The Board could not discredit the Directors without disored- iting themselves. [Applause.] MR, DOW 'was very far from imgugw’ng the motives of the Board of Directors, but thers wasa good deal of ambiguity about the evidence, and was sus- caghble of being differently constrned, and he did not think men were_prepared to vote zpon the matter. . [A voice, “ Yes, they are.”] If the President ruled his motion out of order, all Tight. AMB. MYER ‘had been under the pressure of that thing for gixty days, and, by G—d, he did not wantto have the ngony continued sixty deys more. Let them decide on the expulsion, and they would refer the question to the arbitrators and pay the award, if any, in two hours, MORE _CONFUSION. Mr. W. N. Brainard moved that they proceed toballot on the expulsion of James Baxter. {Cries of ‘““Vote,” and uproar.] Mr, “Bensleo said there had never been any settlement between Myer, Bnterl Lyon, and Templeton. [Cries of * Wheeler,” #Vote, and confusion.] Mr. Wheeler thought -if thers was any more evidence it should be adduced; if not, let them vote. [Cries of “Vote,” and more uproar.} THE VOTE. The motion to yote to expell prevailed. John Lester, James Clemovw, and Childs G. Cooley were made tellors. One gentleman exhorted his brethren to “vote against expulsion,” and then eaid there ghounld be no - intimidation of voters, and everybody asked his-neighbor if he was naturalized and en- titled to vote, and so on, until the polls closed. It was decided to vote on the expulsion of William S. Forrey. Mesars. Ward, Bruce, and Bakerwere appoipt- ed tellers. 3 ‘The ballot was taken. It was resolved to vote an the expulsion of Tsnse Myer. Mesara. Crogo, Dickinson, and Coble were made tellers. The ballot was taken. THE BESULT. The tellers in the case of Daxter, reported as follows : Total number of votes cast, 260; for oxpulsion, 167; sgainst expulsion, 93. . Baxter was expelled. In the case of Forrey, the tellers reported: Whole number of votes cast, 228; for expulsion, 98; against expulsion, 130, [Applause.] Mr. Forrey was not expelled. In tho case of Myer, the tellers reported: ‘Whole number of votes cast, 216 ; for expulsion, 48; against expulsion, 168. '[Applause.] HMr. Myer was not expelled. The Board adjourned. COUNTY AFFAIRS. DMeeting of the .Commissioners—Soldiers” Orphans—The Quality of JMeat Furnished the Poor Xouse and Insame Asylum to Undergo Investigation. A meeting of the Board of County Commis- sioners was held yesterday afternoon, President ‘White in the chair. Present: Messrs. Jones, Ashton, Crawford, Harrison, Lonergan, Pahl- man, and Stearns. A circular, stating that orphan children of Ti- linois soldiers could pe received at the Orphan Home at Normal, was referred to the Committee on Poor House and Paupers. A number of bills were reported correct and ordered paid. 5 The Committee on Roads rnd Bridges reported relative to two bridges in the town of Niles, rec- ommending that $200 be allowed for the upper bridge, and $700 for tho lower ono, when com- pleted and accepted, the latter being the most ‘expensive one. General White offered the following: solzed, That the Resident Physician and Warden at the Insane Asylum and the Poor Houss be, and they are Lereby, directed to report fo this Board in ting, withont delay, whether the quality of the pro- ‘visions, including fresh and salt meats, lour and gro- ceries, are each and all good and equal to the guality which the several contractors msy furnish, and if not, in what articles there ja a failure to comply with tho several agreements by the contractors, and for how Iong a period such failure has existed. Resolved, That the Clark be, and is hereby, directed £0 give the above named officers access to the books, for the purpose of obtaining necessary information a5 to the agreements of the several contractors, He offered them because a week before he had soen & communication in oneé of the papers to the effect that the contractors did not furnish good food, or that the paupers and insane did ot get tho good articles furnished. He found the beof wholly unfit to eat, though the county was pnyiuifar good beef. The officers hiad told Dim that that was tho usual quality. If the contractors wereacting thus, it-was time to know it, and it was the duty of the officers there to report such things, or bo dismissed, for they wera unfit for their places. Still, he would not take these statements unsupported by other proof, and o be wanted to hesr from the offi- cers. Mr. Ashton moved to amend by adding the folloying: “ And also to report” the facts in connéction with the competency or incompeten~ cy of the cook, and _character of the nrrange- ments for cooking.” Mr, White accepted it.

From his own examinations, fxows\‘er, he did not believe them. . Mr., Crawford favored_sn investigation, but had £'und things good when he was there. The resolution wasadopted, Several bills wero presented and appropriately referred. Those of the bailifs iere ordered paid. 5, The Board adjourned till Monday. GENERAL NEWS ITEMS.
