Mr. Barrett, counsel for the defendants, applied for a postponement in consequence of the continued serious iliness of the defendant Crary’s wife.

Ascertaining this fact, he had imme- @iaccly sent a speciai messenger to Salem for a wit- bes Whom the Listrics Atiorney admits to be a Material and necessary witness, The party hud not reached here, but he was expected in the course of the day. Counsei nad at the same tine telegraphed to Catskill for another important witness, iat ‘Whom no answer had yet arrived. He (counsel) had eve tate mto the case, but he had attentively read over all the testimony taken in the two civil suits agus the defendants, and assuming that that testi- mony Was in substance sinilar to that that will be | hie in the present criminai case, he had assured clients that by no pusstvility could there be a con\iction found against them.

Before Justice Dowllog. ‘The examination into the alieged conspiracy to defraud the Unton Pacific Ratiroad Company was continued yesterday before Justice Dowling at the Tombs, The evidence so far given is weak, and the story of the fraud, if there was one, Is very in- volved and ambiguous. Goodall, being placed on the stand, was closely examined and cross-examined by District Attorney Hutchings, and Mr, Lapaugh, the counsel for the de- fendants:— I got my commission for shared the $500 commission and himselt; Wilkinson gota portion of it for intro- ducing him to Seeley; the others got their portion for sitar introductions; Captain Young introduced me to Mr. Adams as the lawyer of the company, at Reape nartene; 1 asked if in making the aiidavit 1 would be protected by tue company, and. he said, “Yes, us lar as he could,” Cross-examined by Mr, Lapaugh—It was optional wit me to pay the portion of my comunss.on to those men, By the District Attorney—I understood from Mr, Lyon that the bonds were to be soll by Wou? at eighty-eight, and tue difference between the amount loaned Ww the company, less interest and discount, received on the bonds, we should retura to the jenders; | could not say ff the money advanced by Mr. Wolf was his own; I teard trom Mr. Lyon thas Waterlouse, Pearl & Co. would advance the money to purchase the bonds, By Aix. Lapaugh—i addressed Mr. Adams, on being introduced by Captain Young, first; | asked (hat the company Would protect me from givil and crumimal processes if I made the affidavit; he said he woutd Ury to do 80; 1 was told by Captain }oung before tuat that my afidavit would be taken; that was on the previous day; | was aware he was coming to take the afiidavit, and I was therelore prepared. District AtLorsey Hutebings here stated that two of kis witnesses, Who had been notified to appear, had not yet arrived. He mtended to prove by them tat Wolr was not a responsivie man. Mr. Lavaazh said tiat ne could not see what evi- dence had beea produced by the prosecution to war- rant the detention of the prisoners. There Wa» nov a broker im Wall street wio understood what tis case was. Justice Dowling here stated that it was impossible to know what the prosecution meant to do. Le had asked several times, but could get no satisfactory auswer, He would hear Air. Lapaugh on the motion to dismirs, reserving the right of the prosecution to exaimiue the remaining witnesses afterwards, Mr. Lapaugh then moved to dismiss the case. There was nothing in the evidence already taken to show an attempt atiraud. It was a clear breach of contract, out nothing more. He insisied that it aid not matter to the company whether the parties who loaned the money were re- spectable and responsible, The $10),000 was loaned When the bonds stood at 102, and the paraes jending 1¢ had to take the risk of tueir being nigher or lower in the market at the expiration of the time. specified in the contract. An action for breach of contract to recover the difference between the value of aeranes at the time of the loan and on the day on which they were soid would have proper grounds, but the company has not lost one doilar oy this trans- act aud there is nothing to prove that the con- ould be broken. ‘There 18 therefore nothing in law or evidence to justify this prosecution. Justice Dowling asked the counsel to suspend his arguinecut in order that a wituess for the prosecu- tion mmig.it be examined, Duncan F.
