8 THE INDICTED MEMBERS OF THE COMMON COUNCIL. Motions to Quash Indictmonts—No Witnesses Before the Grand Jury, COURT OF OYER AND TERMINER. Before Hon. Judge Roosevelt. OcrossR 5.—The matter of the people ogaiust the mem- bers of the Common Council, indicted for malfeasance in office, Came up on 9 motion to quash the indictments in the cases of Alderman Herrick, Councilion Heely, Wan- deli and Cooper, respectively; and also to Aix days for the trial of Aldermen Drake and Moser, who waived infor- mality in the indictments. The accused were all in Court, and the attendance of outsiders was quite numerous. Sudge Koosevelt having signified that he was prepared to hear arguments on the motions to quash— Mr. Janes T. Brady desired to state that in the case of Alderman Drake he mede no motion to quash, but wished to have the trial set down for Monday or any other early day that the District Attorney might fix. Mr. Hall submitted that the universal principle is that where an indictment or indictments are preferred against several individuals for a like offence, it lies in the dis- cretion of the prosecuting counsel to decide in what orler the accused shall be tried. In the exercise of that dis- oretion, therefore, he proposed to try Aliermau Herrick frst, to try Councilman Heely second, to try Alderman Moser third, to try Alderman Drake fourth, and Mr. Cooper and Mr. Wandell fifth and sixth. Vollowing the same general principle, he would contend that, according to the old principle of common law, a motion to quash as to dne ndictment is a motion to quash as to all in the like case. This is particularly 4o where the objection to the ind ment, as in this ease—as to the inefficiency of the jury— applies to all the indictments. If there be auything ia that question it should be first disposed of, before any of the accused were put on trial. [t was in the discretion of the District Attorney, he conteuded, to say what order of trials he should determine on, and if it was not tor counsel to force him to change that order, Ms. Brady admitted that when a number of persons indicted, jointly or separately, with relerence to the ¢ cause of complaint, the District Attorney may ex- ercise bis discretion as to what order the cases should be tried in, But he contended there was no analogy what- aver between that case and this. Alderman Drake, ofhicially and personally, in fact n law, stands bere tor himself alone, charged with acrime lor guilt, for which he would not only be subject to a heavy fine, but also to a lengthened Alderman Drate is 4 candidate for elec It was therefore highly important that his guilt or innocence should be settled. Itwas probable a man or men residing in the same ward as Alderman Drake might deem it important, to the attaioment of their ends, that he should be sacrificed in this way. He claimed that it is the right of a pacty tu- dicted to be tried at once. Nor is it true, he said, that that tle motion to quash must apply to all these inlict. menis. Alderman Drake wanted to plead and go to trial, and is ready for trial to-day or to-morrow, or Monday of Tuesday. He denied the right of the District Attorney to Ox the trial of citizens in any manner he pleased, so s to deprive a citizen of his constitutional right to a i trial. He therefore moved the of Alderman Drake. Mr. Hall—In reference to this point I would refer your hono: to the case of the People vs. Captain Kinney, where the Court decided—the detendant being ready tor trial and the Distriet Attorney not being ready—that they liad no control over it, and that the enly thing they could do arge the defendant ow his own did, thus enabling the accused 1 it was impossible for the Court to onas to the order of trials on the matter for the District Attorney to exercise his prerogative with a good and to the rights of citizens. «© pwesent motion to fix a day for ness before the court this morn- , Which he deemed common to make a diserimmin: calendar, That alone, who is pres due regard to the y He saw no ground fi the trial. The only Brady suggested that in the ease of Alderman Cooper the motion to quash would be based ou other grounds (han those on which he went in the other cases. As for himself he had to attend in another court this morning, and would no: be ableto go on with the arga- ment ou the motion te quash Mr. Busteed, cous or Alderman Moser, addressed the court—He said tha: we of Alderman Moser there was no intention y motion to quash the indictment. The District Attorney was notified that if it suited his convenience they were ready to go to trial to-day, and if'so they would not to quash the indictinent. He asked that the Cour: nome an early day in which th of Alderman Moser may proceed; he was prepared, and would to-day, with the leave of the District Attorney, enter his plea. He med there was an ev! vostponing tle case of Alderman Mi 1 to quash in the case of Alderm: decided, or. if overruled, till after the tria Herrick was conclude could not ha attention of the Court that Mr. Moser is on are so many qu t of his exercising aldermanic ictment preferred against him, character he ily asked ve him a prompt trial it the District Attorney t? not, he urged upon the Court the propriet: saying to that pAb r that in this ex as there is no motion +o quash, and i fendant is ready to be ‘re pal witness aguinst of this county, an Moser ought to bo tr 1 as the de- , und inasmuch as the pringi Walter R. J an be procur shout any i proper delay. Indge Roosevelt— t has been in session since Monday last, and hos ¢ried but one ease, althoughit was prepared to goon with *he trial of cases, There need, therefore, be no comp of delay so concerned. If these par ies had ori mencement of the term, )een anxious to go to trial, the, might have done so, at least so fur as the Court i cerned. “As to the order of proceed te same re- marks which he had ile in regard to the application of Alderman Dr be made in the ease ot Alder man Moser, nam the District Attorn no interference can ter. Mr. Whiting pro to quash the indict Cooper, one of the 4 Councilmen. the affidavit of the detentant, which char ing to his information and belief, Luther man of the Grand Jury, did no’ the indictment, reside within the York. Mr. Hall made the pr stance of oper's an ter entirely of hearsay inmpertinent to He asked the © amine the affidavits before he allowed them to be read, and decide whether they were admissible. The Court asked whether the affidayi' was fortified. Mr. Whitiog—Yes, sir Mr. Hall—No, sir: 1 beg your pardon. Mr, Whiting insisted that they were. He thought they were living ina communsty where law should ve admi- nistere] openly; they were living in a conuaunity where aman may go to bed at night as innocent of ollence as the wife of Julius Cesar was, or ought to have been, and find at breakiast time, in the morning, that he has been indicted ome imaginary He asked how it was pe for a man to show the Cou that the Grand Jury acted improperly, unless he {s allow ed to swear on information and belief The adida Mr. Cooper charges the fact on information and bel ‘that the foreman of the Grand Jury which (ound the in- dictment is a resident of ‘yveen’s county.

He put thut they had no witness there who testified o: dence against Mr. Cooper, and that the they allege that Mr, Cooper committed the crime, swears he was not before them as a witness, never made such a charge, and that the charge is not true. _ Judge Roosevelt was disposed to go, perhaps, in. regard to the duties of Grand Jury even thea coun, sel himself. His impression was, that a Grand Jury, when a prima facie case is made out, but when they know that there isa witness within their jurisdiction whose testimony ean afford an explanation of innocence, are bound to have that witness before them. twas, the Court to penne, on were information and belief, that the Grand Jury found an indictment without having a witness betore tliem? To be sure, counsel had, to a certain extent, showed that they had not the principal evidence before them, but might it not be that there was some other witness’ Or, in other words, was not the Court to presume that that body acted correctly until the contrary is shown by competent evidence! i have not, said he, seen the indictment. Is there the name of any witness endorsed upon it Mtr. Whiting: ©, sir. Mr, Hall—It is not usual to have the names of witnesses nscribed on the indictment. If the District Attorney is sopien to, he alas furnishes the names of witnesses to defendant's counsel. Mr. Wainer Wal, will the District Attorney now in- form us whether there were any witnesses examined be- fore the Grand Jury in the case of Mr. Cooper ? Mr. Hall was not prepared to say; but if it became evident to him that the Grand Jury found an indictment on insufficient evidence, he would enter a nolle_prosequi. Judge Roosevelt—Would it not be better to have the minutes of the Grand Jury brought into Court at once? Mr. Whiting—Very well, sir, and if there is the name ofa single witness on the minutes, Iam ready to with- draw my motion and go to trial. Mr. Hallhad no objection to have the minutes pro- duced. He had never seen or examined them. An attendant counsel informed the Court that he had de- manded to see the minutes of the Grand Jury, and that the clerk of the District Attorney had declared to him that the minutes of the Grand Jury.or the affidavit on which the indictment was found, were not on file in that office. He had also applied to the Grand Jury for them, and been informed that they were not on file, but that the affida- vit was in the hands of Mayor Wood. Judge Roosevelt suggested that it would be let ae motion lie over till the minutes shoul du . Mr, Whiting asked the District Attorney to give hima note to one of the Grand Jury, to examine him as to this matter. Mr. Hall declined doing so, asit would be illegal and unprecedented. An attendant counsel asked the Court for an order that the minutes should be filed. Judge Roosevelt—The Court has no authority to make such order. Let the matter stand over till Monday, when the District Attorney, if there appears to have been no witnesses examined, will enter a moile prosequi. ‘That arrangement was agreed to. Mr. Brady was willing that the cases in which he was concerned should also lie over, as the same question as to information and belief was involved. Judge Roosevelt inquired whether he was not ready to go on with the motion now ? Mr. Brady prefered that it should wait the decision in the other case, He contended for the sufficiency of afli- davits founded on information and belief. Suppose, said he, that I farnish a statement to the District Attorne; that the Grand Jury were all drunk and disorderly in their room, and that [ make a statement on information and belief, what more can I do? They are the only per- sons in that room; their proceedings being secret. I say that I have a right to be heard on information and be- Lief in respect to the secret transactions of a Grand Jury in their room. Is it not necessarily complete evidence unless contradicted? ‘That is what I am going to argue. Mr. Hall—The District Attorney is positively prohi- bited from entering the Grand Jury room unless he is sent for; how then can he be supposed to auswer such a charge ¥ Mr. Brady—Oh, yes; but other gentlemen have been before them who were not officials. Mr. Hall—I am glad to have the question thus pre- sented. For instance, if there is an affidavit on informa- tion and belief that every member cf the Grand Jury is an alien, I want toknow if the onus probandi is thrown on the District Attorney to prove that they are not aliens? Must not the defendant make out positively that they are’ Iwant that question settled, as, if that onus is to be thrown on the istrict Attorney, {think it will be time to think of resigning his office. Judge Roosevelt requested counsel to say whether it was their convenience to have the argument in the case of Alderman Herrick and others proceed to-morrow ! Mr. Brady—Would attend to-morrow if necessary, as it was his duty todo, bnt it was, not his convenience, He might ve called elsewhere, and he had not the faculty of Sir Boyle Roche's bird, to be in two plaees at the oue time. Judge Rooscvelt—Well, gentlemen, say Monday at 10 o'clock. Meanwhile the Hixtrict Attorney will no doubt furnish gentlemen with all information he may deem it his duty to give them. ‘The matter therefore stands adjourned to Mondy at 10 AM.

A most daring, but fortunately not successful, burglary ‘was committed yesterday morning upon the premises of Messrs. Arnold & Co., dry goods merchants, in Canal, near Mercer street. It appears, as far as we have been able to ascertain, that about 4 o’clock in the morning, as officer Roach, of the Fighth ward police, and a private watchman employed in the same district, were patrolling their beat on Canal street, they saw two very suspicious looking characters emerge from Mercer street and slowly proceed along Canal street towards Broadway. Thinking that something was in the wind, the officers cautiously fol- lowed the men as far as Broadway, where they crossed the street and went into the Fourteenth ward. Not feeling warranted in following the suspicious characters any further, the policemen returned towards Mercer street, and on their way discovered to their surprise that the dry goods store of Messrs, Arnold & Co, had been entered by vome burglars, and to a large amount carried off. information of the was immediately conveyed to Captain Ternbull, who, with two or three men, proceeded © examine the premises, They found that some thieves had obtained an entrance to the store of Messrs. A. & Co., by getting from the roof of a public house corner of Mercer and Howard streets, formerly called the ‘Smile.’’ A large bundle of goods, valued at $6,000, was found lying on the roof of this saloon, which had been conveyed there preparatory to being carted off, The skylight of Moss Arnold & Co.’s store had been removed, and it was in this manner that an entrance was obtained to their premises. Captain Turnbull, coming to the reasonable conelusion that the thieves would soon return for the plunder, carefully seczeted himself and his men 50 as to be able to pounce upon the rogues the minute they entered the building. After waiting here in anxious expectation for some time, a man was at length observed approaching the door of the Smile. He looked cautiously around him, and was about entering the premises when the captain seized him on suspicion of being implicated in the print h On being taken to the station house he was identified as J. B. Tanten, formerly a clerk in the employ of the above firm. He could not give any satis- factory account of himself, and is therefore supposed to be connected with others in this burglary. No others have yet been arrested, but it is very probable some clue ill be obtained to the perpetrators of the skilful robber; ‘Tanten is » Canadian by birth, and is a pedlar by occ pation. He denies having any connection with the pro- jectors of the burglary, but unfortunately cannot expiain his motive for entering the private entrance of the Smile at such an unseasonable hour in the morning. ARREST ON CHARGE OF SEDUCTION AT A VERY UN- LUCKY MOMENT. James Brown, of No. 201 Sixth street, was taken into custody by officers Mansfield and Lord, of the Lower Po- lice Court, on charge of seduction. The accused, it alleged, induced Jane Gamble, a domestic at No. 51 St. Mark’s place, to go astray from the paths of virtue, under solemn promise of marriage, ‘The accused, it ap- pears, was arrested at a very unlucky moment. He was about uniting his fate with a handsome damsel who lived in his locality, when the officers ringing the door Dell, informed Mr. Brown, to his consternation, that he was charged with winning the affections of another young lady, under somewhat peculiar umstances. The news soon spread through the house, when the guests becoming alarmed, a general panic at once seized upon those who were there assembled to witness a mar- riage ceremony. ‘The defendant beggei of the officers to delay the execution of the warrant, but they were inex- orable and conveyed him to prison before the entire household. Yesterday Brown was held to bail in the sum of $500, to answer the cl Ee preferred against him, Itisneediess to say that the first love of Mr. Brown was in extacies at the result of the officers’ mis- sion to the house of the would-be bridegroom. THE LATE SHOOTING CASE IN TWENTY-SEVENTH ST. In the case of James Duffy, who was arrested a few days ago, charged with an attempt to kill H. J. Calo by shooting at him through the window of Mr. Childs’ dis- tillery in Twenty-seventh street, and who was liberated on a writ of habeas corpus, a warrant for his apprehen- sion was issued again yesterday, further evidence being obtained against him. A search warrant being issued by Justice Favison, the premises of the Ugirtece ‘were search- ed, when a book, from which a leaf had been torn for the wadding of the pistol, was discovered. The wadding was icked up by the officers soon after the occurrence, and it now turns out to have been a leat torn from this book. Although the evidence is somewhat circumstantial, still the magistrate committed the prisoner for trial. CHARGE OF FALSE PRETENCES. John McGram was taken into custody yesterday, charged with false pretences, on the complaint of Ro- bert Anderson, of No.116 Centre street, The acoused, it is alleged, obtained the goodwill and possession of the premises No. 79 James street, valued at $76, and also $200 in cash, on his representing to the complainant that he had $7,000 in the Chambers street Savings Bunk, which representations the complainant now changes to ba false, and that they Were made at the time of the bargain with’ intent to defraud him out of his_property and tao- ney. The prisoner was taken before Justice Connolly, at the Lower Police Court, where he was committed for trial. CHARGE OF GRAND LARCENY. A. M. Spanier was arrested on a charge of stealing $500, the property of Jolin Sylvester, of Nos. 184 and 186 Fast ‘Iwenty-seventh street. The accused, it is alleged, was admitted to the house to make some repairs, when he committed the larceny. He was committed for trial in detault of $1,000 bail. ALLEGED LARCENY OF COPPER AND ANTIMONY. Edward J. Peck was arrested by officer Rue, of the Se- cond District Police court, charged with stealing a lot of copper and antimony, valued at $6,000, the property of Mr. Hiler, of Tarrytown, Reckland county, in this State. Tue accused, it ix alleged, came to the warehouse of Mr. Hiler, and representing to Mr. Sounce, the clerk, that he had heen authorized to obtain the proyerty, got_posses- sion of the same. and brought it to this city, where he was arrested, ‘The accused was brought before Justice Davison, who held him ty bail in the sum of $5,000 to answer. CHARGE OF PASSING ALTERED BILLS. Jevemiah BD, Deryer was taken into custody yesterday, charged with having passed an altered bill on the Wil liamsburg City Bank to Citarles Wimen, of No. 90 Chrys- tie street, ‘The accused was taken before Justice Wood, at the if Court, who committed him for examination.

We have read in your issue of this morning a para- graph transcribed from a recent statement made by Senor 1D. Goicouria, of certain facts connected with the abortive Cuban revolutionary movement. It purports to define the nature and accompanying circumstances of a contract for transportation entered into by Gen. Quitman and sanctioned by the Cuban Junta, This has been done in a manner inconsistent with the true facts of the case, ‘and prejudicially to said Junta. ‘We trust that in a few days abundant light will be shed upon this and other matters pitifully altered in Mr. Goicouria’s statement. Meanwhile, we beg your reade to abstain from all hasty conclusions that might be drawn from such bold and unfounded assertions.
