Corrigan replevined. the ‘animal, and Leahey instituted perjury proceed- ings. On his ex parte statement an indictment was found.- Corrigan promptly guve bail. The esse was yesterday tried on ‘its‘merits, and ho was promptly acquitted.’ Itis not unlikely that Mr. Peahey will be sued for malicious arrest. In an interview-with Gen. McDowell the other day relative’ to,,certain charges against, 4 him regarding the Custom-Houée .work,-he was! reported as saying that Mr. Woodman, who dad been mentioned as 2 witness inst: him, “was ag unsuccessful bidder for the work, and one ‘who, contrary to agreement, kept the schedules belonging to Bartlett, Robbins & Co. I have been led to understand ‘that he told them that if thoy would pay bim forthe. trouble of figuring that he would not send in his bid.” It appears that the reporter misunderstood Gen. McDowell, who said Carn it" Sopdet ped kept the ‘schedules, he did 2 wro! ing. appears, ‘however, that he did not, Bnd also: that ee did not offer 2 rival firm to withdraw from the con- test if they would pay him for his trouble in fig-, uring. é ? The Coroner held an inquest yesterday at the Madison Strect Police Station‘on the of ‘Thomas Ryan, of 208 Maxwell street.. While cleaning the tracks on Madison street, near Des- laines, on Thursday last, Ryan had stepped Backward to avoid an approaching team, when he was struck by the neckyoke of another team and thrown forward under the hind-wheel of the first-mentioned, sustaining internal injuries from which he died. It was shown that the teams were on a walk, and on their respective tracks, so no-one was censured. «An inquest on the body of Mr. Collins was alsoheld. He had re- sided at tHe corner of Brown and Eighteenth streets, and had slipped from a train at Calvary Cemetery, where he had been attending the fu- neral of afriond. In falling he rupjured the spinal cord, and died shortly after. Verdicts were rendered in accordance with the facts, Dennis Kearney, of San Francisco, invaded Chicago yesterday and put up at Burko’s Hotel, where he and Jimmy Springer, ‘the venerable, gray-haired Greenbacker,held sweet communion Searly the whole day. .Kearnoy was blatant as ever, and believed in cutting the throats of those who were. pppressing ‘the poor Irish tenants as landlords in Ireland. Kearney’s glory is faded jn Chicago; for,,save the goodly Goodhue; Mayor Harrison's henchman and pretended working- man’s friend, a venerable Irishman dubbed O'Reilly, none came to honor-him. and Kearney entertained these worthies with his vile ha- rangues, Kearney and 5 peiner: held a confer- ence atwhich they resolvedto hold a meeting Tuesday eve at McCormick Hall, for which they are to pay arentalof $100. The expenses, are tobe defrayed by a. collection at the door at the close of the performance, when every one ‘coming to hear will be expected. to shell ou! THE STOCK-YARDS PACKERS. - “Packing operations at the Stock-Yards are seriously embarrassed by the fuilure in the. supply. of .bogs. The arrivals have been excecdingly light from various causes, of which the bad roads are the chicf., Co. were obliged to _ stop idling yesterday, and will probably not be able: to ri Sume operations to-morrow, as they were yes- terday unable to secure more than 1,500 hogs. It has been estimated that the arrivals of hogs dur- ing the present week will not amount to more than 180,000, in which case several of the re houses will have to stop kil , or work on half- time. The packers say that the weather would not interfere with packing if the hogs came ‘in in sufficient quantities, but that with a small killing the outlay for ice is out of all proportion to the work done. Several believe that the’ roads are now sufficiently dry to allow of large shipments, and that shippers outside of e city will have gotten over their fear of the strike by the middle of this week. Unless the hogs do arriye in much larger quantities than at present it is probuble that several thousand men will,be thrown.out of employment at the conclusion of a iong strike. Should there be a shut-down for a few- days it will be a question whether the packers will give the preference im rebimployment to the non-Union men or take advantage of the oc- easion to replace their gteen hands with Union men who are more experignced. The packers say that they will give preference to the non-Union men, but the Union men say the contrary. Armour & Co., will to start up. ‘Tuesday, and the other houses will work short hours. = : : THE CATTLE AND DAIRY SHOW. * ‘The Committee of the State Board of Agri- culture, including J. R. Scott, the President of tho Bond, and S. D. Fisher, Secretary, Lewis Ellsworth, Samuel Dysarth, and Samuel’ Doug- los, who have in charge. the arrange- ments for the next annual Fat Cattle Pacific, and abrief session. Messrs. Scott and Fisher pro- ceeded to the Stock-Yards, where, at 11 o'clock, in the office of Mr. John B. Sherman, they met that gentleman anda large number of live- stock commission merchants, and the prospect of the coming cattle. show was discussed. Neither of those previousiy held in this city was a financial success, and the object of the con- ference was to secure a guarantee against a loss by the State if another show were decided upon. The stock people spoke ery encouragingly of its ultimate success ‘and the benefit it would %e to Chicago if it were continued. They gave enough assur- ance of financiul aid, so that unother exhibition will be, held next fall. Messrs. Ellsworth and Dysarth interviewed the hotel and business men on the same subject, and ulso, received very en- couraging support. Furthermore, Mr. Douglas looked up the dairy interests, and the prospect is that both the cattle and dairy shows wit be made of » National rather than of u State char- acter, and that the premium-list will be large and inviting.

Committee on Streets and Alleys, North Division, met ego afternoon an had before them various matters, principally remonstrances .against street improvements, ‘The remonstrances against the improvement of Pine street and Clybourn avenue were the prin: cipal mutters, and both were disposed of ufter,a fashion, In the case of Pine street, it was to yisit the thoroughfare, and in the cnse of Cly- bourn avenue, it was resolved .that it should go back to the Council. Ald. McCaffrey promising to move a reconsiderution of the yote by which the improvement had been ordered. In the discus- sion.of the latter project the citizens present re- flected quite severely in their eloquence upon Ald. Meyer, cluiming that he’ had originally been: opposed to the improvement, and ha given the pledge that he would cause the repeal of the ordinance, which he had never done. They said ‘that his excuse for his conduct was that he “had been seen” by some onc else, and, having no confidence in him, they called upon Ald. McCaffrey to represent them in the future. The Committee on Printing met yesterday afternoon, and bad under consideration the election of the corporation newspaper. The bids had been opened a week ago, and the bid- ders were out in full force to look after their in- terests. Each of them detailed the excellencies of their respective concerns, and elaborated upon the circulation of the sheets they repre- sented and the sacrifices they made in bidding, and it. was 2 free-for-all and go-as-yeu-please affair throughout. The contest. was between the afternoon and German publications, and the rivalry was quite spirited, resulting in the selection of the Daily News as the English ‘torgan,” and the Volks- freund asthe German. The did of the former ‘was 36 cents per inch, noupareil type, or $2.05 per 1,000 ems, and the latter's bid wus 20 cents per inch, or $1.40 per 1,000 ems... The" Telegraph was the lowest bidder for the English, but it appearing that its circulation was meagre, and that it had been pecessary during the past year to advertise in THe UNE to secure any- thing like competition in making awards, it was thrown overboard. The. Volksfreund was the lowest bidder. When the matter comes before the: Council there will be a fight, no doubt, and considerable wire-pulling isalready going on. The authorities, however, appear well pleased with tne action of the Com- mittee, except) Mr. Waller. If the matter was Jeft to him, und he speaks from experience,— knowing the value of the several competitors as advertising mediums,—he says he would adver- tise in some of the morning papers,and by giving fewer insertions he would get the widest possible publicity for all advertisements with- Out’ any increase of expense. He. believes in putting the public. money where it will do the Most good, and does not see how the city is to gain anything by confining its -adv patronage to the chenper publications. COUNTY-BUILDING,. - The Grand Jury yesterday examined twen- ty cases, found eight true bills, three no bills, and passed nine bills. George W. Stratton was indicted for the murder of Bertha Bottenhagen, alias Lottie Robinson, alias “ Dutch Lot,” at No. 6 West Kinzie street, a week ago. In the Criminal Court yesterday, before Judge Jameson, Patrick Murphy and Charles Hopkins were found guilty of larceny, and each sentenced to one year in the Penitentiary. William Lawlor was found guilty of - petit lar- ceny,and was remanded.

Tho Com- mittee will recommend that new mattin placed in the Criminal Court-room. The Com- mittee on Towns and Town Accounts also passed upon some. bills. The Jail Committee will re- ort adversely on the claim of Wilkinson, the unty-Court Bailiff who was bounced by Sher- iff Hoffmann. i ‘a William Johnson, Collector of the Town of Jefferson, yesterday fae to the County Col- lector $1,014. John M; Dunphy, Collector of the West Town, turned in $15,009. Frank Neisen, Collector‘of North Chicago, paid to the city dur- ing the Week $8,064, an 5, to the county $5,000.

There was some trouble about the signing of the contracts, but this has been over- come, and now the contractors are all at work. a reporter of THe TRIBUNE yesterday visited the office of the County Agent and examined the bread which is being supplied by Duffy Bros. Capt. McGrath stated that it was the best bread ever delivered to the County-Agent’s office, and the examination bore out this state- ment.’ The jbeans, barley, corn-meal, rice, and other supplies were ‘investigated, and proved to be fully up to the sample. e milk which Mr. Koltze is supplying to the Insane-Asyluim .and Poor-House is said to .be equal to that furnished last year. Mr..Bipper has begun to deliver meat under his contract, and no'complaints have yet been filed about it. Since the ‘old-time Democratic Ring-rule has been broken up and the Baker Bros. lost their grip as.coal-contractors, hulf a hundred schemes havé been set on: foot to annoy the, present contractors. The latest scheme was a’ well-managed one. The Insane-Asylumgand Poor-House are located a couple of ‘miles from the railroad. and in the - present state of the roads it is very difficult to reach these institutions. Accordingly the stock of coal was suffered to run very low. Then it was hoped and expected that a cold spell would come. The “Munitoba wave™ did not arrive, but yesterday a few emissaries of the disappointed bidders were around at the County- Building bfthting for reporters: The burden of their complaint was that the Asylum and the the: |-Poor-House were without coal, and that in the event of a cold snap an indefinit number of pau- pera would be frozen to death. Inquiry showed that the allegation was untrue. [t appeared that the side-tracks at Jefferson Station were Diocked with--coal. In the present -condi- tion of. the roads hauling is’ extreme- ly difficult, it is that the storehouses atthe Asylum are unfilled. But if a “freeze” should comes from fifty to eighty tons per day could readily be hauled from the depot (one and a half*miles) to the inttitutions. Tf the freeze does_not come, then the coal will not be wanted. It seems that the “kick’ is being, mude by the disappointed bidders, and that it is only a part of their program, which in- cludes meetings of “indignant citizens" in city wards twelve miles removed from the Asylum. ‘The taxpayers may rest assured that no pauper will be frozen at Jefferson, even though Baker Bros. have not the coal-contract. - * FEDERAL FACTS, Fifteen thousand dollars in gold was paid out yesterday. ‘The exports of alcohol yesterday amounted to 150 barrels.

B. Geohegan was elected Treasurer. ; The Chairman said the business of the meet= ing. was to devise means to repeal the recent getion of. the City Council.in regard to second hand dealers... ‘The Sccretary reid tho ordinance recently passed by the Council.. It imposed a license of 3100 on.all second-hand dealers in leu of the $27 license heretofore required. -. bE “Mr. Adler stated: that every jeweler, plumber, furniture-dealer, and clothier tought second- hand goods when a ‘bargain was Offered.

A meeting of Goose Island residents and prop- ertyholders was held’ lust‘evening at No. 101 Hickory avenue, a little street running off to the northwest, and one block west of the Division street bridge, over the canal. An alleged young lawyer by the name of Williams, who was last known as a Socialist, and whose political ambi- tion is supposed to be a seat in the Council as a representative’ of the island, called the meeting to order, chose himself Chairman, and proceeded to conduct the busi- ness. Along petition in his own handwriting, addressed tothe Mayor and Council, and pro- eceding from property-owners living on North Branch street. from Halsted to Division, on Cherry from North Branch to Division, on Hickory avenue from Bliss to Division, on Di- vision from Canal to‘ the river, and on North Haisted from the ayer to the canal, set forth that the Chicago Gaslight & Coke Company re- fused to lay gus-pipes “tonto” the streets or “onto” the island for the simple reason that it wouldn’t pay. The tracks.of the. Chicago & Pacific Railroad’ extended: across the island, trains and engines running night and day, and the uneyen and broken sidewalks made tray- eling at night dangerous and perilous to life and limb. In view of all-this, the property- holders asked and demanded that the Council take immediate action to procure the lighting of the above-mentioned ‘streets. In addition to these on-puper retlections, the Chairman pro- eceded to inform his hearers that Prof. Barrett, of the Fire Departinent, had agreed to set up his electric Hght on the island. This would cost Jess than’gns, und, as the city would appropriate to pay for it,itwouldn’t cost the residents a cent. In view of these pleasant and confident assurances, the property-owners. present natur- ally expressed a unanimous preference for the electric Hyht, and signatures to the petition were immediately forthcoming. The remainder of tho session wus devoted to the appolniment ofa committee to labor with Ald. Burrett and McCaffrey this evening, and impress upon them the fact that Goose Island demands light, ‘and ALLEGED INSOLVENCY. ‘THE DYER MINING COMPANY. - About a month ago, Horace A.

The Company admits that it represented « the stock was full paid, but denies that Hurlbut was deceived thereby, or that he paid more for his shares than they were worth: On the contrary, he can sell his -stock for more than he paid for it, but bas always refused, and refused to allow the’Company’s debts to be paid in stock in order to force the other stockholders to buy him out at a high figure.

New Yors, Jan. 24—At 1 o'clock this morning the engine of a train on the ele vated road.was thrown from the track bya misplaced switch and fell into the street, 2 distance ofttwenty-five feet. The four. pas- senger-coaches of the train remained on the track. The following employés were on the engine and fell with it: Edward Williams, right leg fractured and head seriously in- jured; John Constantine, head and face badly scalded; C. Falkenburg, John C. Schoot: and William Kimball were slightly The General Superintendent says the cause of the accident was too rapid running. It ‘was against the rules: to rum over-curves or switches at.a faster speed than six miles an hour, or to run faster than twenty-five miles on the straight track. The engineer sent his train rushing up the system of switches from the east to the west track at the rate of about thirty miles an hour.
