These old service pipes were pui ip by the buard of public works as an experiment, being of a composition of lead, zine, &c., which does not stand the test of time, many of them being so corroded as to badly. ‘This work is done at the expense of the general fund, as it has been assessed against the property and paid for, and it would ‘be unjust to compe) another tax for the same Os when the District was in the fault.

A trud De. uy took place between the in- and Commissioner Le Duc, who was turaily indignant at the mauner in which | ali interview had been forced upon him. a ap party retorted that he was “the servant of the people,” aud that they. the tax-payers, owned the government property, and had a right there. “How mueh taxes'do you men pay? “We pay taxes on the clothes we wear, tte victuals we eat, the tobacco we smoke, and even the match to light it,” said one. The for $1.25 per day, said: “ Yes, if Leould get no have worked for eighteen cents a You couldn’t live ou that,” said a But I did live on if,” he said, “and am only getting more now because I was wil ling to Work for what ¥ a; I could get, and tried to earn it faithfull; Would you want men to work for eighteen cents a day?” asked one of the raya “If they can’t earn any ore,” said he. They then marched to the Treasury depart: ment where they had the interview with Sec- retary Sherman reported in yesterday's STAR, and afterwards moved on to the office of the Seeretary of the Interior, but got no hearing from the officials there: They afterwards wandered about in the northern portion of the city followed by a detail of policemen and finally halted on the east steps of the Capitol where they rested and soon afterwards were disinissed by Cohen, who notified them thit there would be a meeting there last night. AKREST “OF COHEN. He was unable to meet his tollowers there, however, as Detectives Miller and McEliresh, who held a warrant sworn out by Officer R. H.

Thomas No:ton testified that he heard Cohen use no violent language; he was with him ali the time. . COREN’S STATEMENT. Mr. Durant said he had no further witnesses except Mr. Cohen. He was sworn, amd stated that a committee of 100 was appointed. Tney went to the Agricultural department. There Was an ofticer at the door, who said he could not see the Commissioner. He walked right in and told his crowd to follow. They did So, and found the Commissioner engaged. They waited for him to attend to their wishes. le was a public servant, and they thought they had a right to see him. The commissioner did not like, apparently, for them to come there, and he (Cohen) wanted him to understand that he was a pub- lic servant. He made use of no obscene or in- decent language. He went there to present some resolutions and the petition. His mney (Mr. Durant) here stated this was all the witness he had to offer. He read the warrant, and said the charges had not Lege proves: and proceeded to argue thereon at length. , Mr. Riddle argued the case for the prosecu- ion. ACTION OF THE COURT. The court reviewed the law in the case, and thought it best to let the case stand open for 30 days, Mr. Cohen to give $10 bond to appear at the expiration of the time, when the judg- ment wil! be announced. Cohen was waiting for real estate security ou his bond when our report closed. AN INCENDIARY MEETING LAST NIGHT. Information was lodged at police headquart- bureau, setting forth that Cohen, on the of September, at the entrance of the Agricul- tural ding, engaged in loud and boisterous talking, and did so crowd and abstruct t! i foot pavement and the entrance to the A. cuitural building as to prevent a fre 2 Dass: and with others assen there made buis terous, rude and insulting comments oa per- sons passing and in their hearing. IN THE POLICE COURT. | morning there was an extra large at- | tendance at the Police Court in anticipation | of the ial of Cohen, and during the moruing the crowd patiently awaited the disposition of the usual lot of-eases. Cohen was brought to the court this morning with the other prison: | ers frqgm the seventh precinct and lodged in tt below, and when the corporation eases | were called he was brought up with the others | to the dock; but the ease having been po: poned until after the U. S.cases were disposed ol, he was returned to the cells. Jn the mean- time there were many of Cohen's followers about the court room, and in Jadiciary square there were small gangs of men hanging about, \ supposed to be his foilowers, awaiting his re- lease. Atnoon Mr. Riddle, attorney for the ict,and his assistant, Mr. Padgett, ap- P ed, and Cohen was brought out. ' He looked rather jaded, and his neck was wrapped in a white handkerehief. He evi- dently did not like the accommodations at the court, foron coming out he remarked to Mr. Boston, bailiff of the court, “You must have served four years in hell to qualify you for service here.” Mr. Thos. J. Durant appeared as counsel for Cohen, and on the warrant beiag read Cohen plead not guilty. THE TESTIMONY. The fi witness called was Richard H. Cook, special officer of the Metropolitan Police, on duty in the Agricultural frounds, to the erect that yesterday about 114 o'clock from two to three hundred men approached the building, and Cohen, after calling on them to “ dress up,” picked out_a. number and started to goin the building. Witness told him that they could not enter, and Cohen said: “There's the man I have come to see, and by G— [ll see him,” (and turning to his men, pi witness aside,) said: “Come on. ® = | a then rushed in, ahing the hall reu dering it dificult for the to pass back and forth. Cohen appeared to be in command. The crowd came up in double file, and extended 2W) yards. Cross- examined by Mr. Durant:—He picked out 15 01 2) from the ranks to go in, and shoved wit. cutofthe way. Never saw as large a nere before. “Had met excursion pariies there before, and they came in a diflerent manner from these parties. This crowd Jooked to him like a mob—some with shovels, tin buckets and sticks. Did not hear any ob scene language, but heard loud language in the Commissioners’ room, but could not hear what was said. Witness did not offer to at- rest Cohen because airaid it would bring on a distui bance. i Mr. F. B. May testified that he saw the crowd when they came up; Cook tried to keep then: out, but they rushed past him, Cohen saying “Come on, men.” About twenty came in and crowded into the Commissioners’ room. Cross examined by Mr. Durant.—Did not see Cohen strike the oificer, nor did he hear an oath. Witness was not interrupted in the discharge of his duties. % Mr. O. D. La Dow testified that he was sec retary to the Commissioners, and was asked what he heard in the Commissioners’ room. Mr. Durant objected that under the infor- mation what occurred inthe room could not be given im testimony. Mr. Riddle claimed that the law in quest! was extended to include yabiie buildings. ‘The Court ruled that the question could be asked, and he would rule it in or out before the final disposition of the case. Mr. LeDue continued: His attention was at- tracted by tramping feet ; luoked out and saw @ crowd, with Cohen at the head. They halted, faced the building, and in a little time there were noises of a disturbance in the hail. and Cohen, followed by others, came into the room. Gen. LeDue said: What does this mean? Cohen answered that it was a com- mittee of 10), and handed him an velope. Th Jommissioner said he wouid read the resolutions at hiv leisure. There was no disposition to leave, and the Commissioner asked them to leave and directed that assist- ance be summoned and the halls cieared. They then commenced to talk about waves, and asked if they were paying laborers $1.5) and the answer was giyen that they were and also below that sum. When the Commissioner spoke of clearing the halls Cohen said, “Ail | ne bring on your police and we'll see whether you will clear us out or noc.” They were there about half an hour, and some ladies were excited and appeared Irightened, and there was some interruption of the ordinary busine: U. Hitz, superintendent of the fold. ion Capt. J ing room, testified that he saw the crowd in front ; heard the orders “halt, froat, dress ‘up,’ &c.; saw Cohen come up with 15 or 20. Cook tried _to keep them out, when Cohen shoved him aside and told the men to follow. They prevented him from transacting his business with the chief clerk, which was important. John L. Bailey testified that he had char, of the files room; testified that he saw the crowd and it halted in front of the building. Cohen and 15 or more swept in past the police. men, Cohen saying of the Commissioner, ‘He's the man we want to see,” and rushed into the Commissioners’ room unaanounced, raising some excitement. Cohen then spoke to the Commissioners as to the laborers pay, aud Co- hen said, “Don’t you know laboring men can- bot live on less than $1.50 per day,” and ~ while tramps and bums might live on less, we ean’t?” They said that they represented the People, and the Commissioner asked how much taxes they paid, when they replied they bald “tax on every drink of whisky they drank, or cigar smoked. or mateh they scratched.” Mr: |. F testified that he saw the 8. le} crowd approach the building and halt. Cohen | and others were in the building about half an hour, and interrupted the business some. | E.

Noonan was called, and Mr. Riddle proposed to prove the acts aud declarations af tle parties the night before, aud that there was the form of an oath administered, and in execution of which they went ont. Mr. Durant said that this would be good evidence if the charge was conspiracy, but it did not affect a charge of being “loud and Deisterous.” Mr. Riddle said that between them wasa «difference—a casual gathering of a crowd and one assembied for a pre-determined purpose.

C., Sept. 18, 1878—Hditor Star-—An article in last night’s Star, headed “The Assembiy’s Presbyterian Church Debt,” contains so many errors that in justice to said church I ask that you publish this state- ment: Jn 1852 the land on which the chu: he Rey. John C. Smith, and the title thereto was conveyed to members of his own chureh in trust." This title never has been divested, and never was in the trustees for Assembly Pres- byterian church congregation. In 1859 the trustees of said chureh congregation bor- rowed of Colclazier $3,000, giving their notes for $3,720 without interest, the $720 being in- terest at 12 per cent. per aunum for ten years. the time the loan was due, and they attempted Logive a deed of trust on the church property, to which they had no titie. The church had no knowledge of what the trustees proposed to 0 ‘A small Part of the money, it 1s claimed, no doubttruly, was used on the church, but the larger portion was paid over to one of the persons mostac- tive in getting the money, when nothing was owing to him by the church. Most of the church knew nothing of the transaction until the trustees advertised the property for sale under the trust, and in a church meeting re- pudiated the whole action as without authori- ty, unwarranted and illegal. Amos Kendall brought an ejectment suit for the property, but abandoned i*. From that time to the present, sixteen years, no action has been taken. When Dr. Boynton became pastor of this church some years since, and his congre- gation became a part thereof, he found the church with only about twenty members. They found a debt of $5,000, which they have with the greatest difficulty succeeded in pay- ing off, for alithe members are poor, most of them being cierks on small salaries. After the 35,000 was paid then Colclazier resurrects his claim, and brings the suit in question, of which they had no knowledge before: Not one person who had anything to do with bor: rowing the money is a member of that con giegation, and not more than six are members to day who we.e there in 1859. We claim the debt void through usury, and because there was no authority to borrow. We also claim it is barred by limitation, and that. the trust is veid, because the title was not in those by whoin it was given. There is not one word of truth in the claim that the trustee was afraid to act because he would be turned out of of flee. I. G. Kimpatt, Solicitor for Assembly Presbyterian Church.

He eee nothing of 1t at the time, but the thumb did not bexin to heal until atout two weeks ago, when it discharged a small piece of bone. On Sunday last he felta pain in his arm and a general feeling of lassi- tude, and Monday morning he was worse and found it impossible to drink a glass of water.
