Bixby afterwards made a motion for leave to discontinue without cosis, and defend- panel The following is Judge Cardozo’s jon:— It is monstrously dishonest for 9 foreign consul to ‘answer generally in a case without pI a his Rivas #0 as take the chance of prevailing in e suit, and if suécessful, to avoid the bes ji oh his adversary obtains on the ground of want of jurisdic. tion. Common fairness dictates that the privileves be interposed as soon as the sult is com- menced, and wiieresoever it is not done I shali on @pplication release the plainti by permitting hin at ey stage of the action to discontinue without costs ere is no hardship in this, pecause the defendant cou have prevented it by simply avatiing hiraself of his priviiege at the first step when the costs were ivial.” Motion granted.

CITY INTELLIGENCE. Ovp, Hoxoxep DsaD.—The ‘schooner Ely Town- send, Captain Gardner, arrived. at this port yoster- day from Portsmouth Grove, Rhode Island, having on freight 295 bodies of soldiers who died from the effects of wounds and disease during the late war. These remains of our honored dead are in charge of the United States Christian Commission, The bodies were all arately encased in coffins, with plates Sheree ae ‘3 te name of deceased, ent to which he belonged, age and date of death.

Sreixe or LaBorens.—A strike among the laborers employed at tue new Hudson River Railroad depot, in course of erection on the site of what was once known as St. John’s Park, occurred yesterday morn- ing. Thg laborers, about one hundred in number, who are employed to wait upon the masons, refused to go to work until their wages was increased, They were popeiving eighteen shillings a day, and the amount struck for ts twenty shillings. No previous notice was given of the intention on the part of the laborers to make this demand, until, on arriving in the morning, their employer found the men idle, and not until then did he asvertain the cause. Had he been made aware of their intention Jast Saturday there would have been no lost time and the demand would have been acceded to, After a brief delay, however, the men were set at work at the increased rate. The granite stone- entters on the same building have now been on a strike over two weoks, in conseqnence of the taking on of an apprentice by the master workman, in op- position to the rules of the society. The subject of Wages has nothing to do with this strike and the men refuse to work, even at the high wages they receive, because, as they say, their society rules have been infringed. During the early part of the strike a na‘nber of the discontented entered the building and began throwing things around promiscuousty in their attem)t to destroy the property of the con- tractor. In the confusion that ensued, one man, Patrick Tuomey, was strack in the head with @ brick and severely injured. At present, however, all is quiet and agreeable.

F. Fourtner, No, 514 Nineteenth: street, by Mr. Field to make an inspection with a view of sging On presenting himself at the door of the rem! he was prevented from entering by Scul- m, who had been laced on as eeper yy, Deputy Collector ‘elifare, of the Sixth district, who had seized the establishment at eleven yesterday morning, Scullion declares that he was acting in self-defence, as the inspector did not show his authority to enter the place. and drew a revolver, Whioh he wrenched from his hands. The comptatnant’s head and face were badly cut and bruised, The prisoner entered into bonds of $300 to appear and answer. “To Wuat Base Uses,”—St.George’s church, Beek- man street, the sale of which, with the grounts sur- rounding, to Phelps, Dodge & Co. we noticed a few weeks a30, has been curned into a stable, in which the horses of the firm are to be housed for the pres- ent, Yesterday the interior of this once sacred edi- fice presented a singular appearance, On the altar sat chained to the wall an exceedingly ugly appear- Ang watch dog, while where the side aisle pews were paren Gog re of old planking torn from dif- rent parts of the building were being put down for stalls for the equines, who are to eat their hay and corn where many who now sleep the sleep that Knows no waking bent in humble prayer and rever- ence.

MUNICIPAL AVFAIRS. BOARD OF ALLERMEN. Granting Permissiou~Pipelaying Extraor- dinary. This Board convened yesterday afternoon at two o'clock, and although a “working quorum” was pre- sent the “third house’ was not very largely repre- sented. The usual crowd of hangers-on, whose coun- tenances would serve as passports to State Prison, imagined, no doubt, that the services of the city fathers had not been conciuded at Albany, as the eity tax levy, withits load of jobs and perquisites, re- quires the constant attendance of the ‘workers’ of the Board to keep the “big 3” well sandwiched between charitable bequests and diminutive public improvements. The: members generaliy yesterday were in good H luumor, and after the disposal of the usual prelim! | nary business a very large number of resolutions, “with ord nees atiached,” were introduced and laid over or referved to committees, as best suited the purposes of the gentlemen presenting them. Mostof these resolutions referred to the paving and other- wise improving streeta on the upper end of be 4 island, especiaiiy around where property 18 own by intiuenttal parties. After these and some other generally wuimpociant matters had been disposed of @ remonstrance was presented, signed by a large number of ag owners on Maiden l@ue, ag the paving of that thoroughfare with Nicolsou pavement. The paper was Inid over, and thea, by @ unanimous vote of the Board, per- mission was given to the Mutual Gaslight Company to lay pipes and perform work similar to that now performed by the Manhattan Gasiight Company for @ period of thirty years. ‘Thia delicate little graut received the ready voies of all members present, ine cluding the representatives of the immaculate re- publican party, the friends of the Citizens’ Associa- tion and adherents of the clique so fearfully opposed to the corruptions and jobs of the Tammanyites. A paper was then presented to the Board by the genticman fron just below Yorkville, which the reader proceeded to read as follows:—Resolved, Tha Pylon be and the same is hereby given to — construct ——. At this point the gentleman al- luded to jumped op and cried out, * Misterpres- dent—I.do move you, sir, that the readin’ be dls- pinsed with and referred to the comitee on wharves, piers and slips.’ The gentleman's wishes were complied with by the and he settled back in his seat quite contented, ant was heard from only occasionally for awhile, as some paper of lis was introduced calling out “lamps and jas,” “roads,” and then thinking, apparently, that ere Was some little job in a “general order which on the list referrei to the paving of Forty- fourth street, from Fourth to Madison avenues, with Nicolson pavement, and on which he had not been consulted, as it came in his ‘‘deestreak,” he cailed it up, but on the original it was Forty-first street, and this somewhat mixed the Alderman, 80 he agreed to Jet it “lay over” as it came from the other Board. A resolution was adopted to regulate, Ac., Tenth avo- nue, from 152d street to 162d street, and finish the sidewalks with ‘concrete, shortly afier which the ntieman @bove alluded to moved ‘that the Board jo now adjurren,” and the motion being carried, it was amouneed, in accordance with a previous 10 tion, that the Board siood adjouraed until Monday next, at to o'clock, BOARD OF COUNCILMEN.

BOARD OF AUDIT. Where Does the Money e The only case of interest heard by this Board yes terday was that of William McKinney, who claims $1,803 for serving summonses from the Corporation Attorney's office from April 11 to December 2, 1895. Mr. McKinney received some money during the time, ‘but how Tapoh he could not exactly etl Be ad n bills one morning an e them to Mr, Hunt, then assistant in the Comnernioe Attorney’s office, and was told by Mr. Hunt that there were over $2,000 due him (Mr. McK.) at that time, but he never received one cent on account of those bills which he had recetved, Mr. Dean opposed ,the claim on behalf of the city, and put in evilence Statements of records and vouchers in the Comp. frolier’s office, which show that the sum of $2,253 had been paid on receipted bills from McKinney for serving summonses during the precise time for which he. now claimed $1,863—ma! thus for serving Bummonses for the Corporation Attorney's office for a little less than nine months, the sum total of $4,095, McKinney's counsel put in the plea that it might be @ question of law whether city was empowered Wo pay anybody other than McKinney for services rformed by him, but he was met with an opyos- ng point of law to the effect that the attachés of the Corporation Attorney’s office were employed by the Attorney, and not by the city, and that they should look to him for payment, as the city allowed hin a certain sum from which to pay them, and that as the money had been drawn ant vouchers for the money were on file in the Comptroller’s ofice, it was phatd juestionable whether McKinney could recover any ng ‘he Board adjourned to Tuesday, May 5, at twelve clock noon. te BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, The documents and furniture in the rooms of the Board of Supervisors are now being removed to the Southwest corner of the new Court House brilding, to be occupied by the Board and its officers after May 1 proxino, BOLD SAFE ROBBERY.

On day evening, about eight o'clock, he #vent to church, and on returning atten o'clock discovered that the safe in his bedroom had been opened and on examin- ing it found that tt had been rifled of ali its contents, which consisted of fifteen United States five-tw bonds of the denomination of $1,000 each, and two $100 bonds of tiie same issue; on forty bond, three certificates of ten Shares each of the Western Union Telegraph Company, one certifl- cate of ten shares of the Wells-Bargo Express Company, eighty-eizht shares and various cy cates of the Cherry Run Oi!

Mr. Dugrey’s stailion won tty purse in three straight heats in fine style. Tht horse is a beauty in appearance, being a very hand: some blood bay, with black points and a flowin, mane and tail. He is ¥ bred, trdeing his deq scent ‘from old Messenze ile was sired by, a gon of Emperor, who was by Napoleon,’ out off the famous trotting mare Fanny Pullen, who wad deemed invincibie on the turf until defeated by, Dutchman in two mile heats. ‘The damn of Bem wood was @ granddaughter of Engineer, another descend~ ant of Messenger.

Mr. Nodino’s gelding,! the other céntestant in this race, is a beautiful brown horse, and had a very high private reputation among the select few by whom he was known, and by them considered very fast and almost certain to win any race In which he was entered.

Mr, Scott, principal of Grammar School No, 49, j and Mr. T.. Hunter, priucipal of Grammar School No. 35, appeared on behalf of the principals of the male departments, aad each gentleman read a lengthy and well prepared arzament in relation to the matters imder consideration, They each recgin- mended a change in the number of studies and fhe plan of teaching prescribed by the laws of the Board of Education, sugvesting thuf the course deakenated “outtines” be stricken from the course of studies; that the system of reviews be dlepensed with: that classes be not held responsible at the annual ex- aminations for the stutlewin a lower graie. They contended that if was merely an impossibility for child-en or men to remember all that they had stadied, and that the time taken up In rewlews fre- quently interfered with the progress of the puptis, | and rendered thom somet! like doors moving backward and forward on their hinges, bat making no progress. Mr. Hunter contended tiaat each study was intended onty te develop the mind ona point, and that when that object hed been ate tained = the subject contd “with — safer; he laid aside and higher branches introduced, The subjects stndied were Mike intellectual du i and when the Intelectoal iwuscies had been stoned 80 that they comid use them with perfect soi thing heavier should pe euiployed, Kot! gentleme contended that a great deut of the fatigue and ine under which teachers surfered was eccasionad by fonrs of the examination by the stperintenten's, ant | that they Inight not get exactly as many points as | some of their feliow teachers, end would thus be la ble to be removed or superseded at the will of some of the school officers. | They recommended a change, | if not an entire abolishment, of the mark or that the marks shou'd not be ma: i . and | eC! with the marks as is effected by them, and a great a anxtety Te ay be avoided. Miss M. A.

Mr. Kennard, vice prin- cipal of male grammar school No. 16, followed tn a ery able address, and argued chiefly ‘against the | great number of stuvlies which the ‘pupils of the higher grades were obliged to pursue, and showed by well prepared statistica that it was impossible for the pupflsto be well taught in all that they were required to go through with. He also showed the great advanteges that would accrue to the system b; the abolishment of the introductory class of the coi. lege and # modification of the course of studies ta the college and the schools, so ag to form a continuous ruin of studies, and demonstrated quite clearly that the college would be much Denetited by the change, as well as the system generally, : The session lasted some three honra, but the sub- jects being of so munch interest and tmport present liste: discousr 1040 .
