Gage, lato City' Trensurer of Chicago, who was indicled for funliling to pay over tho city's funds to bl sucoosexr, camo up Loforo Judgo Murphy, in tho Guusuit Court of Lako Coutty, this afternoon, s motion being made fo quash tho ludictment, The room was full of poonle, but the Gago caeo alono did not attract them, tho session boing the opening ono of the Court. Thore wero prosent of counsel for v, Gage, Wist Doxtor, Esq., and the Hou. Leouard Swatt, State's Attornoy Roed sippeariug for tho Paoplo. T'ho cogo hind beon dc ckoted under tho chango of vemue from Cook Cot inty, and, after tho Court Iind disposed of anumbier of motious in mivor caacy, MR, HWETT aroso and said he desiiaxd to entor o motlon to quash the indictment in tho caso of Mo Peoplo v8, D, A, Gnge. A slmiler motion had been mado while tho caso woa pouding 1n Cools Conn- ty, but it was ovetruloed, :and o ploa of not guilty had beon cntered, The object i rouowing tho motion was not that he oxpected a differont ruling from tbot given by Judgo Rogors, but new facts bad como to light showiug that tho previous ruling, ns ho undorstood, quashed instead of sustaintug the iudictnout. Ho was 80 confident of thig, that ko and Mr, Doxter had thought it proper to como up befors tho case wag reachod, aud mako tho motion, 80 as not to subject tho comnty to the wxpense of bringivg tho witnosses if it should prove unnecessary. + Io then went on to stato the facts of tho case, citing tho law of 1833, upon which the indict- mont is based, contending, ne beforo, that, wher- over thoro was o rovision of 1o subjest matter, ond special yeguintions wore xaado, ns required by tho act of 1863, providing 0. spacial chartor for Chicago, that rovision and thoso regulations rapeated by implication the .former law; also, that the goneral statuto could not apply to tho City of Chicago, beeauso citiss or municipal corporations wero pot mentioned in it, sinco thero wera no cities in the Stato at tho time tho Juw of 1833 way paased, In surgort of this, ho read from o decision in tho caso of Green va. Reeder, 22 Michigan, in which it was held that, whoroe there wore two acts or twa provisions, ono of which was spocial or particular, and cortainly included the matter in quostion, and the other genoral, which, if standing alone, would includa the samo matter, and this covflicted with tho spccial act or provision, the sp«cial must bo token as intended to constitute ary exceplion to tbo noneral act o provision. Mr. Reed suggested that tho first quostion ought to bo WHETER THE COURT WOULD ENTERTIIN THE MO- TION TO QUAELL, The Conrt remarked thas ho jutended to ask that question, Mr, Swett rojolned that whethor the Gourt would entertain tho motion was a mattor of dig- crelion, and it socmed to lim that all tho fucts should be stated in order that the Cowt might puss upon the question intelligontly. 1o thow procecded with hus statement, sayiug thatho had recoutly dizcovered A NEW PIOVISION in the city charter under the heading of *Tho powors and dutios of ollicers goneral!y.” Tlus Wos: It nuy person, hasving been an officor in+ said elty, shall not, withinl tew doys sfler notificatiou and re- quest, deliver to i successor in ofiico all property, Papers, ond effecta of every description n ht§ posscse slon belonging 0 sald city or appettaining to the oftice Die licld, e shall forfeit and puy for the nko c2 tho ity estden nll duningges cavieed by lls neglcat or ro- fugul 80 to deliver, And wich succeseor ebiall, and muy recover possesston of the beke, papers,pnd Droperty sppertaining to Iis odicy i1 the hanuer presaribed by o uwa of thla Sizlo. 5o, 2, Chny 3, uet of Feby, 13, Ho claimed that this provision was oveillooked by counsel before, and not cousidered tho Court ; thad, it it had been, the indletment wonld have been quushed, Hues thodeclsion of Judgo Twogers, THE SUPREM) COURT OF ILLINOIS hnd decided a cane, holding substantially thiat ho wis wrong iu_requiring that thero should.bo a special provision on the subjeck of not Faying over in order that tho rovision of this subjcct Ly implication shonld ropanl the former stivinto, Ii other words, thero wsa e direct declsicm of tha Suprome Court that, witbout tho partialar clause he had rend, tho indictmont should be quashod becauso tha revision of the law repealod Ly smplication tha provision on the subject oi';not paying over. 'Lho act of 1833 provided thnk an ofticer was to Lo punislied for not peying over the funds when he stiould be thereto roquired by law and demand nade. Therefore the in- dictment should contain ihe avermont that Ghiyzo was_ required to puy over, and that domund vas made, and there must be fomo law requiring Liim to pay over; otherwise tho indictmont mrust bo quoshed for want of o atatuta_upon which it could rest. ‘ho judictmont could not rest npan tho geueral requiremont of the city charter thist oll Gilicers shall pay over within ten days frota the time demand was mado, becsuse it was not framed under it, aud did not aver that Gago wms called upon to turn over, and failed after tem days, It averred gonerally that e was roquired. )y 1w o puy over, and that demand was made upon bim, aud Lo failed to pay over. Inhis opinion, there was no law wpon which the in- dictment could stand; and o lad the statutes carefully examined on that point. EVERY OTHER OFFICER must pay over ; but there was no general law oc upcclnl luw in relation to the City ‘I'rensuror. Thero being no statute, it remained to be soon whothor thiore was such an offeuso #s not paying over lknown to the common luw. Ie uflirmed that there was no snch thing, and supjiorted his position by authoritics, ‘Ihe only law requiring Gage to pay ovor was thio provision of tho clty charter cited by hlm, Subssquent totho declsion of Judge Rogoers, tho ace of 1833 had been con- strued by the Logislature, and an not had been paswed rovising it, ~ Tho now not was in the Anme zoneral language, oxcapt that otties and munie ipat corporations wera enumerated, Alr, Reod nnderstood that the statementa of Mr, Biwott were mude upon the question whethor the Court wonld allow connrel to withdruw the plon of not guilty and entor » motion to quash, whicks he decidedly objeated to, TRE Couny said thoro was no doubt ic was fn his power, at sny thue whilo a cngo was pending, to malo or- dors, to graut leave Lo withdraw ploas, and dis- Inies casos, and the people had no remedy, But thio question which Lo vinderstood to o mooted, sud nbout which therassomed to him to be grave doubt, was us to what wwas the practica in the Cuounlt Courts in this Stato with respect to an indictinent, » motion to_quash which had bosn mado and pussed npon by tho Court,—wlhothor thero was such & thing known in the hiktory of thio State or in the adminlutration of justico un- der tho common-law Aystem.
