The application for leave to flle an information in the nature of 3 quo warranto against Clark Lipe wasargued yesterday morning before Judge Moore, sitting in the Criminal Court. The relator, John Tsrrell, was represented by Gen. Smith and Mr. Hook. und the respondent by Mr. C.C.Bonaey and Judze Lawrence. Mr. Bouney, 1n openinz the proceedings, said o few words about the general features of the case. remarking, with great confidence, thas it would Dbe shown that there was no reagon for granting the petition. 1In order to get to work at once he called on Mr. Hook to read the amended petition. Mr. Hook #aid it was wonderful how people would differ about the merits of a case. e be- lieved, Mr. Bonney to the contrary notwithstand- 1mg, that tne very best reasons existed for grant- iny the petition. He then proceeded to read the amended pesition, the additional portion being the allezutions in resurd to Lipe's- filing his bond and taking his oath of ofiice after having held the otBice two years and after these proceedings had been commenced. i Mr. Bonney followed with the smended reply. ‘The answer set up in response to the amended por- tion of the petition was that Lipe had filed his bond and taken his oath of oflice when elected for the first term; that he did nmot regard it as legally neceseary to filea new bond and take 8 new ofiicial oath when_ clected for the second term, the old bond holding good and the suretics continning re- sponsible; but that he had lately taken that oath and filed that bond in erder that there might be no pretense whatever that there was any cause for the forferture of his office. Jir. Bonney made his argumentand was followed by Measrs. 1ook and Smith fof the relator. "The Court said he thought, accordine to the Con- stitutlon, these men were to gerve untill their suc- cessors were apoointed., ‘The Court was asked'to supply an cllipsis,—to blot ont certain words and put ofhers in their place. Courts did not scek to do thut sort of thing, bnt to eustain the law us it was written, According to the law in thie case, the oath must be made within sixty days after the datc of the etatute. The matter dechied in the quo-warranto case before Judge McAllister was that Wilcox was not entitled 1o the oilice. This right to file an information was alwayy ad- dressed fo the discretion of the Court, especilly when it came from o relator Who was & private citi- zen. In this case hie thousht it the duty of the Court to rejer to the matter that had atready been adjudicated, viz.: thai Wilcox was not entitled to the oftice. e conld not lose sizht of the fact that the right to Wilcox, or the wuntof right, rew out of toe question as to whethier Lipe was the in- cumbent or nat. and therefore whether it could be considered as un estoppel or res aajudicata, — whether it was not a matter to be considered in de- termining whether the Court had any exercise of 1ts diseretion in granting this right to file an infor- mation. Gen, Swith insisted that it was a matter of @oubt, and_that the Court should therefore allow the filinz of the information in oruer to have the doubt settied. “I'ie Conrt said he found, from all the pleadings in the other case, and the decision itself, thut tue reason Judge Mcllister, determined that Wilcox was not the rightful oflicer, wis that the oflice was occupied by Lipe. wio was rightfully there, Geu. smith ¢idn't understand the decision in just that way. Mr. Bonney understood it precisely as the Court had just stated it. = ‘(e Court—The thing he decided was that there was no vacancy, and m _reasomng about it he simply decided” that the Governor had no right to remove bim. I think the rule must be held to be :alufl'l‘(:l‘; nt, and the leave to file the information be enied. ¥ Willard Woodard had come fu just in time to catel the last words. After. the announcement of the decision, and after Gen. Swith haa prayed un appeul to the Sunreme Court, the talk was over, und the attorney for relator with the Commissioner who had come in but to be disuppointed at the result, locked arrs and walked over the bridge to the South Side together.

LAKE, TAE TAXPAYERS’ ASSOCIATION of the Townof Lake held a secret meeting in Room 4, No. 151 Randoliph street, yesterday afternoon. Mr. Harvey, the attorney employed by the Asso- ciation in the prosccation of the Lake ofi- cials, sad that he shonld mot ey any- thing regarding the prosccution except to o private committee of the Association. He wounld tell the members present why it was that the pros- ccution of Mr. Condit. Treasurer _for the Town of Laie, for embezzlement, wns not successful on tae part of the Association. He desired to make s statement in justice to himself and all partics con- cerned. Mr.” Condit’s books -snowed that ne had paid out somie §275,000, but he hnd not a voucher fo show for any portion of it, except a few insig- nificant receipts, some of these sirned by a confi- dential clerk of his mamed Carson, for some other partics, fichitions or atherwise, rep- Pebented 10 be cmployes. The action of Heelf was an unwarranted procedure, and directly in opposition to the law, waich provided that the “Ireusurer should in no case pay out any money ex- cept upon the presentation of the proper vouchers to the Loard of Trustees, and then the Board should order the payment of the Dills. Many of the warrunts contained in this amount were repre- sented on the books as being drawn on Condit in favor o Condit. This uction on the part of the Trensurcr piaced it beyond tue power of the prose- cution to prove whether the money had actunlly been paid out or not. Then Condit had cred- itéd hunself on the books wiih about $15,000. which he pretended was - paid out' by him for taxes ond to the County Treasurer, Itwus proved oefore Justice Foote ut the time of the trial that Coudit had paid for taxes u little over 35,000, and tu the County ‘Freasurer only 51,500, making in all less than $10.000, and leaving o balance” of between S8, 000 and S, 000 unaccounted for. Itwasa plun cnm- inat case, in the opinlou of the atiwrney: the luw state:i that any omission of duty or neslizence on tue purt of a municipal officer wherenv the mu- nicipulity should be defrauded, or any circum- stances which pointed to that conclurion, should render m hable to panishment in a fine of not Tess than 31,000 nor morg than $10,000, und the forfeiture of b office. Yet, in full view of thesc facts, Juetice Fuote, for sume reasom, nad dismissed the case azainat Condit, ou the ground that he was stil holaing the oflice, and could rec- ‘tify the *‘mistakes™ which bad been mude, — refurn the mouey. Inother words. 8 man might stea] another's pucketbook, and, bewng still in pos- session of it when prosecated, might return the money to its owner and the case against him would ue aismissed. As regarded the further prosecution of the Treasurer. it would involve his personal liberty, und he wanted the advice of the Associa- tion before proceeding. ‘The attorney then withdrew, and the Associa- tion took the matter up. On motion, it was agregd that the attorney should be instructed to proceed with the prosecution. Considerable talk of an informal nature was in- duiged in oy the members, after which tne meet- ingadjourned until next Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock, at the same place. THE C1TY-HALL.

Judge Jameson was in the Criminal Court yes- terday to hear some motions and finish up some business waich the detays of the Jaw preciuded i disposing of during bis late occavaney of the Beneh in the Court. “I'he first motion heard was that of Georze Eager for a new trial in the Eager-Stein burglary case, wherein he was convicted and given two years m the Penitentisry a few wecks ago. Messrs, Reed and Snreeves uppeared as lus attorneys, and diled a batch of aflidavits and the formal motion setting forth the legal reusons why a new trial shonld be granted. The ufildavits were from imaginucy or real persons living along Clark street. or in tae vicinity, who hapnened oy some seratable weans to have been 1 the viciity of Steln's store at 3 0'clock 1n the morning when it is alleged that Eager and Stein were tozether. in secreting the zoods stolen, und were intended to refute the charye that the tivo were togetuer at the time. The buints mude in the formal motion were: (1) The verdict was azainst the evidenc (2) the evidence was wsuflicient to justify the jury in finding o verdict of gullty; () the Coart erred n submittiug improper ‘evidence to the jury: (4) the Court erred in @iving improver instructions to the jury on behall of the peopl (5) the Court'erred in refusing proper instructio asked oy the defendant and in modifymg those asked by defendunt; () there wos a wateril and suostantial variance between the allegations of the indictment anddhe evidence; anu (7) newly dis- covered evidence. In the arcuments on the motion the attorneys for the defendant ampliied the points made at sereat length, contendin: that in the indictment Toere were some fatal_errors in the spellinz, one being n the nume of Stein, wherein the -t was not crossed, making the codefendant **Slein™ in- stead or Stem (which tae Cours held a8 _unworthy consideration), and that the evidence of Stein on the trinl had mot been corrovorated, but, to the contrary, denied by a number of witneyses. The aflidavits then ‘were read, con- suming & great deal of time, and from them it was argued that gager had not had a fair tral on the ground that evidence not then obtainable had been since discovercd, etc.. the object being to discreait the evidence of Stein and Marks, who had been the principal witnesses for the prosecntion. The State’s Attorney replicd, resisting the mo- tlon, first thoroughiy snalyzing the formal and lezal points raiscd. and. scconuly, replying to the atlidavits. Il¢ maintsined that the Court had not errea, that Eager had had & fair trisl, and that the afiidaits were simply cumulative evidence on the question of Kager's being with Stein, which Earer und other witnesses had testl ied to, but which the jury failed to credit. The whole qnestion, he con- Cluded, was 0 10 the facts, of which the jury was the judge, and the Court could not review the cae. The Caurt took the whole subject under advise- ment, and the attorneys ure to furnish him oriefs of their arguments Tuesday, after which the motion will be decided. “The next motion taken up was for a new trial in the case of George and Emma White, the notorions shop-lifters, convicted a few weeks wzo of stealing asenl-skin sacque from the store of Barnes & Co. B. Thad. Wakeman, one of the attorneys for the gang. - iled an atlidavit to support the motion, sei ting forth that he was debarred from argning the case, or limited to n five-minute speech by the Court, etc., and J. Lyle King argaed the motion. Tne Coutt iistened patiently and respectfully, and after the argument kad been completed said the aftidavit was fulse,Zor not a true record of tac facts, ond then proceided to visit on Mr. Wake- mun a very #evere, und apparentiy not entirely undeserved, rebuke. e said he bad never scen i clearer cuse of guiit proven in uny case, and tnat if the defendants were innocent toeir atiorney had precluded their provioe it. Mr. Wakemun hud occupied two hours in Impaneling the jury, anad thrabghout the triai hud wisted isaer o0~ and very much aunojed hi~ ¥ said he did mot like the relation of the attorney and clients, as he bad appeared on their bond and had allowed them to run off and given the officers of tlic law considerable trouble, and he had limit- ed the arguments to the jury in the exercize of his right, and, us he thought, for the protec- tion of the defendants. The casc was finally raken under advisement, with the understanding that the State’s Attorney will file a ceunter-afiidavit, and, when the JudZe left the Bench, he was com- plimented for what ne nad said. to which he re- phicd that Wakeman was an intolerable nuisance. The next motion was by the judges of clection of the Village of ncoe, recently found guilty of refusing to accept a certain vote. = They want- ed a new trial, and, through their attorney, pre- sented their points at some length. This case was also taken under advisement. MARINE NEWS. LAKE FREIGIITS.
