SUPREME COURT. The Penrsall-O? Connor Contempt Case—Ex- Planution by the Court us to the Course of the Closing Proveedings. Before Judge Cardozo. Yesterday morning, when the court was formally opened, Judge Cardozo made the tollowing remarks im reference to the Pearsall-O’Connor contempt pro- ceeding, which wasbefore him on the previous day:— Itis proper that I should say that after the ad- urnment yesterday it was intimated to me that Mr. ‘ownsend was under the impression that he had been cut off irom replying to the opposing counsel, Idid not see him take any notes, as if he intended to answer, though I understand that he did so, and I did not observe—and the District Attorney and seve- ral others, though I find that some thought differ- ently, confirmed my impression—any disposition on his part to rise. I thought 1 waited long enough to enable him to speak if he wished, though of course I may have been mistaken. I had not the shght- ost intention to prevent his epeaking, and had he addressed me even ter I com- menced my remarks I should certainly have stopped and listened to him, not only as a matter of duty, but because his respectful statement in the morning liad removed much that was disagreeable, and lett upon my mind the impression that what- ever there waa to censure was probably, after all, the result of error of judgment. As soon as I learne of the supposition I wrote him a note, stating the fact and offering to aiford him an opportunity to reply to his adversary; and I state ugain that if ne desires it such opportunity will be afforded him ia open court. 16 is proper aiso that I should say that when I sent Word to him to come into court later in the day, which he elected not to do, considering that the mat- Ter was adjourned, it was because I did not 80 un- derstand it. I did not state that the matter would be adjourned to unis morning, but that I would dis- _— of it during yesterday, I will now dispose of case.

Yesterday James Knolke, of No. 73 Sullivan street, appeared and signified his willingness to give bonds for the appearauce of Joanna O'Connor and Anna E. Pearsall, in the sum of $1,000 each, on the charge of keeping a bawdy house. Mr. Knolke de- Pe that he was the owner of a house, lot and urtenances in Sullivan street, of the value of 000, Mr. Blunt, acting Assistant District Attor- y, took the bondsman before Judge Cardozo, aus examined him, when it appeared that the house an Jot were purchased four years ago, at a cost of $8,000, that there was a $5,000 morteage on it. ae ozo «deemed it highly improbable that the property had appreciated in value within the intervening since its purchase so as to worth $20,000, and held that the security was in- fe nie two charges against two separate de- fendants. In order, however, to afford the prisoners the Saees epporcanity of liberty upon proper secu- rity he stated that he would discharge iilgs ’Connor Upon this bond for Ler appearance when required, and would admit Mrs. Pearsall conditionally to bat! ‘on the same bond, with the understanding that she would appear beiore the District Attorney and give @ new and satiefactory bond by Friday next, or before that time if she couid procure such.

ALLEGED PRRJURY, ‘The first case called by Mr. Hutchings yesterday was an indictment against Mar- tn Reid, charging -him with perjury, in swearing that on two separate occasions he paid Mr, Monmouth B, Wilson, one of the fire commissioners, the sum of $275 on condition that he would procure him a position on the police force. Judge Curtis, of the Marine Court, was the firat witness examined, He testified that a case was tried before him en the complaint of Martin Reid against Monmouth B. Wilson, for the recovery of $275 said to have been given to Wilson, when the Jury gave a verdict for the defendant. On that trial Reid swore that he paid Wilson $275 in two separate pevineoie. he agreeing to put him on the police rce for that sum, Cephas Brainerd, counsel for Mr. Wilson, gave a detailed statement of the testimony given by Reid in the Marine Court, to the effect that he called upon Mr. Wilson, in company with Thomas Early, in the latter part of July, 1866, and that in December, 1867, ne and Early saw Commissioner Wilson at his office and paid him $100, receiving @ letter to Mr. Manierre soquesting & blank form of a plication for admission on the police. Monmouth B. was sworn and examined, and pronounced the statement 1m reference to the reception of money to be utterly false. He never saw the man Early until he appeared a8 @ witness in the Marine Court. Mr. Wilson stated that he wrote the letter spoken of in the presence of Cornelius Reid, @ brother of the prisoner. He failed to get Reid on the police, but succeeded in getting him into the repair yard, from which place he was discharged because he neglected his work and was intoxicated. Reid then brought @ suit against him in the First District Court for $275 for lquors and cigars, which Mr. Wilson's wife said the pris- oner had brought to their house, but which she always threw away. At that time Mrs. Wilson was ere and Mr. Wilson directed his lawyer to attend Cornelins Reid, the brother of the prisoner, was examined. He said ne had been a member of the Police force eight years and was under Sergeant ‘tison, and contradicted the teatimomy of his brother by saying that Wilson had never received any money or promise of money from him, and that the letter referred to was written by Mr. Wilson in bis pre- sence, but Rgriy was not there at the time, On cross- examination the witness said that upon one occa- sion be advised his brother to keep straight and to avoid his hdd associates or else he would get thrown out of employment, The prisoner satd that he would compel Wilson to take care of him, and said that he (Wilson) would rather pay his demands than have his name brought before the courts and in the demo- cratic papers. The witness warned other people that his brother was a villain and that they ought not to have anything to do with him. This closed the case for the pects Counsel for the prisoner moved for his discharge, on the ground that there was not sufficient evidence before the jury to warrant them in convicting him of perjury. Judge Bedford dented the motion, and in conse- quence of an important official engagement ad- journed the case till this (Thursday) morning. COURT CALENDARS—THIS DAY.

I was given this warrant for the special business named.

Mias Kate Fisher Arrested on a Charge of Grand Larceny—The Proceedings in Coart— Admitted to Bail. There was & theatrical sensation enacted yester- day afternoon at Lssex Market Police Court. Under tue management of Justice Shandley, the old drama “Compiainaat and Defendant” was produced, with Miss Kate Fisher (as the star) in the latter character, Mrs. Eliza J. Bevins appearing in the rile of Com- plainant. The cast of characters supporting these leading actresses was large, Mr. Howe appear- ing as the Lawyer, Mr. N. B. Clarke as the Bondsman, Mr, Freligh as General Syipathizer, Mr. J.J. Jones@® Interested Spectator, and a langaid looking youth named Nagle, elegantly dressed in a light suit, acting as body guard to the star. Mrs. Eliza J. Bevins, who acted as Complainant, was sup- ported by Mr. gStuart, Jr., as Counsellor, and Mr. James Bevins in the role of Husband. Mr. James Steers acted as stage manager. The drama com- menced about three o'clock and only ran about ten minutes, and at the ciose of that time tbe actors and actresses eft the court room, A little farce which was not upon the papers was cnacted outside the building in which Husband, Complainant, Lawyer, Defendant and Body Guard took part, and Which was principally made up of defiant and somewhat uncomplimentary lan- defiant looks ‘The first act and perio ing smiles by the lat only of the drama was played yesterday, but it is announced that the performance will be continued at two o'clock on Friday afternoon. The sensation arose from the following circum- stance:—Mrs. Eliza J. Bevins Ls aay te before Justice Shandley, at Essex Market Police Court, on Tuesday morning last, and asked for a warrant against Miss Kate Fisher, who was at that time, in company with ber horse Wonder, playing an engagement at the Bowery theatre. Mrs, Bevins stated that Miss Fisher had stolen from her a goid watch and chain of the value of $200. The Justice asked several questions and then instructed the clerk to take the lady's aim- davit, which was of course done, This document reads a8 follows:— Kliza J. Bevina, of the Centreville Hotel, Long Island, being duly sworn, deposes and Ne That on the 16th day of No- vember, at the city of York, in the county of New York, the following articles, vi 1 ebaip Of the value of $200, the ‘pro feloniously taken, stolen and cs arried ‘away from deponent's jy and that the deponent bas probable cause to sus- peet and does suspect that the said jclea were #0 taken and stolen by Kate Fisher, The raid watch and chain were stolen trom depouent on the sald day at No, 64 East Fourth while depo: was lying sick ia her house. Deponent was informed by Delia Yeving, deponent’s daughter, that fald Kate bad taken the watch ahd ol a the said Kate On the strength of this affidavit a warrant was iasued and placed by Justice Shandley in the hands of oMcer Hiram Chandier for execution. The ofticer was unable to find the defendant at the Bowery theatre on Tuesday, but was informed that the lady would present herself in court yesterday. In ac- cordance with her promise Miss Fisher entered the ay tne haba ien f afternoon, accompanted y her egal adviser, and by Mr. Ww. Freligh, man- ager of the Bowery theater; Mr. N. B. Clarke, the stage manager; Mr. J. J. Jones, the treasurer, and Mr. Nagle. Mrs, Bevins, a very fashionably-attired lady, was also in court, accompanied by Mr. Bevins and her lawyer, Mr. Stuart, Jr. Mr. Howe informed the Justice that he was not ready to go on with the ex. Amination in the case, and by consent of both coun- sel the hearing was adjourned until two o'clock on Friday afternoon. Miss Fisher was required to give bail for her appearance and Mr. Clarke became her bondsman. In her voluntary @: ination Miss Kate Fisher atated that she was born in Boston, was thirty-one years of age, and denicd that she was guilty of the charge preferred against her. This case, it will bered, was before the courts in @ slightly different si some months since, on Which occasion Miss Fis! agent figured, Mrs, Bevins being also the complainant in that suit, THE BOARD OF HEALTH. The Board of Health held their reguiar weekly meeting yesterday afternoon, the President, Mr George B, Lincoin, in the chair, The counsel read a very lengthy report, which was adopted, concerning the mooted question in which be decides that the Mayor hap the authority 19 com 4 trol the doge in the eummer time and that the Board has not, The counsel also reported that in his opinion the Seventh Avenue Railroad Company should we made tc remove the stuff put in Thompson street by them when the: removed thelr track from the side to the ae aolon be tak eae t th vont r, rate actions taken at the » Mr, whsing and the ronan contractor, The recom- jendations were adopted. ‘he Sanitary Cominittee reported a series of réyn- lations concerning the removal of garese in the city, ‘The regulations require, Saat, ro the garbage removed shall not be putrid or ve; second, that the boxes. must’ be “light; third, the time of removal must be becween four and nine P, M. and six and and nine A.

A Terrible SpectacleTragic Death of a Worke man—Scenes at the Ruins—A PanicmSeveral Persons Injured. ‘From the Cincinnati Commercial, May 25.) A few moments after twelve, B jegicitra noon, the city felt the rumbie and roar of a great explosion. Men on Fourth street thought that it could not be further off than Third street, and so ran in that direction, ing at a fourth story window, on the north side of Sixth street, near Joho, was startied at being struck on the cheek by @ breath of heat. Jumping up and looking to the south he saw, way down by the river, @ great mass of black smoke rise; then came acon- cussion that shook the windows, an the smoke was crowned with a big, red fame burst, that shot up to an amazing height. People over in Covington and Newport felt the shock and saw the smoke. Many thought that a tornado was at hand. And go it was all over the city, except inthe ex- treme limits, and ee not less tien a third of our population real! Immediately that something extraordinary had occurred. THE GASWORKS. Many of our readers are familiar with the ground plan of the Cincinnati Gasworks, Frout street, east of Mill, cuts im two the acres which are covered with the property of the company—the six holders, the retort houses, purifying rooms, coal yards, offices, meter and governor rooms, &c. On the south side are only the big holder, “No. 5,’ the necessary coal and retort houses for it and the office and meter and governor rooms. The holder stands (or rather stood, for the tank alone and the columns are now to be seen) just east of the Globe wire and roiling will, where a terrible explosion, that shook the city, occurred last fall, On the north side are two large and three small holders and all the neces- sary buildings and works for gas making. HOLDER NO. 5. The gasometer or holder on the south side, known as “No. 5,”’ was @ mass of boiler iron of a quarter of aninch thickness, 127 feet in diameter and thirty- five feet in height. There were 375,000 fect in the holder. Ina moment this immense volume of & had rent the iron plates like so much glass and dis- appeared in smoke and flame, leaving » dying man on one of the columns. THE EXPLOSION. All the forenoon yesterday sixteen men haa been working on the top of the holder and on the colamns tarring and painting the vast surface of iron. Below them, on the ground, within about twenty feet of the holder, a big flre was burning, and in a cauldron over that the tar was boiling. At twelve M. the big bell rang, and fifteen men started and descended to goto dinner. Since early morning the holder had risen a considerable distance, and it had become so dimicult to reach the top of the ladder that one of the men—Patrick cKenzie, of large and heavy frame—fearing to swing himself down to it, concluded to send for his dinner and remain on the holder until it should sink to te top of the lad- der. That decision cost him his life. He was sitting in the shade of an angle of one of the pillars on the south, waitiag to pull his dinner up, when suddeniy he was deafened, blinded and overwhelmed, as the immense holder rushed up several fect above his head, He had seated himself there a big, Strong, healthy man, comfortably clothed, and thinking only of his dinuer, In an instant, in the midst of fire, and smoke, and thunder, he reclined there, a naked man, stripped of every patch of clothi ave some rags that clung to his ankles. From chin to his toes he was nothing but a panting mass of burned and bleeding flesh, when the rains of the holder thundered back down into the deep water of e tank. We find it impossible to state the cause of the ex- plosion, and diilicult to convey ed idea of the ap- rance of it, It appeared as though the roof of he holder was rent in twain from nortan to south, that as it rose and fell back the overwhelming sound was heard, and then the great bursts of fame and smoke arose in awful splendor. THE GREAT HEAT. For an instant, for a square around, the breath of mighty heat played. The woodwork of doors and windows was biist and blackened. Men 10) feet away found their faces, arms and hands scorched to the flesh, and for many squares around the close, stifling licat was felt, and then it was ail over. TBE VICTIM. The most terrible feature of the affuir was the hoppy of a ii + powerfal, naked man, black and blue and red in blotches, and no- where white. The man had been roasted alive and yet he lived and moved a litte, and retained his consciousness, as he cowered there in a corner on the base of the capital of one of those tall and stately monuments. He was waiting for relief, not from ius burning agony, although he died in evesy breath he drew, but from the dizziness of the altitude. He felt that he was growing weak, and might not long be able to hold himaelf there, and he called piteously to those who were bringing the ladders to hurry up, He wanted to reach the ground and see his wife and three children, whose terrible anguish he felt and knew. And he wanted to have the hand of a priest on bis forehead, and feel the touch of holy water—not that the drops could cool a spot on his crisped body, but he looked beyond the day and his death. And so this fearfully suifering man, whose mutilated trank and limbs were thrown out in bold relief against the shining black- ness of the tarred and painted angle of ornamental tron work, waited there, fifty feet or more above the ground, while a long ladder of the Fire Department ‘was elevated to him. The crowd shuddered and won- dered as they looked there and saw this naked, dying man slowly raise himself to a standing position, as he leaned against the column, climb over the latticed brace (for the ladder was on the other side), and then, in his great strength and endurance, ac- ee, descended as would a fireman. only quite slowly, and with a man preceding him to steady bis steps. ' They shaddered at this sight, and not at that alone, for it seemed as though this victim must fall to pieces, a8 would an overboiled chunk of beef. ANOTHER SCENE OF TERKOR. While poor McKinzie was thus reaching the ground, and while he was within twenty feet of it, something else occurred. The crowd was everywhere. There must have been 10,000 persons around the works, and half of these were crammed within the narrow bounds of Frout street, between the works on the south and those on the north, As they stood and looked at the sickening spectacle they knew they had no business there, There was not ove in & hundred tiat under- stood that there was no real danger of any more catastrophes. Nearly all had heard the startin, rumor that the men about te works fea another explosion—a false rumor, however—and yet they waited there and watched, with open mouths ond starting eyes.) gathering in tne ter- ror of the scene and trembling all the while, ‘This was what occurred:—The fire under the caul- dron, already mentioned, communicated to the con- tents. There was a dull roar as a big column of smoke shot up and hid the two men on the latter, Then the black smoke and leaping tongues of red flames dashed over the ruins in the water. Tie thousands crowded together on Front street and in the alleys saw this, They did not know what it meant, for they couid not see the origin of roar and smoke and fire. They ali grew faint with a great terror, They saw this destruction leaping over towards them on @ swift wind from the south, and there was probably not one in a hundred of them that did not feel that the earth was about to open and swallow them, that fire was about to con- sume them or ae they were about to be buried in the ruins of another and perhaps more terrible ex- losion. And so with one mind they fell back, arned and fled, some east and some west and some against the wails on the north of the street. They were a panic-stricken crowd, terrible in their fear, The weaker men gasped for air in the crush, and some of them fell to the grounds boys were tram- pled into the gutter; some stumbied over the hose and were unable to rise in until they had feit many @ cruci heel. Several women had the same desperate experience. It was a struggle to escape fire or concussion, all thought, and so they fled witn- out reason, A young man named Albert Warren had his left arm broken; @ lad named John Malion had the calf of one of his logs shockingiy mutilated; @ Woman (Mrs. Krider, Hving near by, and strangely Out of place there, unless, as Was stated, she sought one of her children) was so violently jostied and tramped upon that a miscarriage very s00n resulted to her; James Harper, a large, strong man, had two of the fingers of his left hand broken, aud various other accidents occured, smoke of the burnin tar the poor Through the smoke of the burn fellow, McKingie, was lifted down otf the ladder and laid out in the office. He had scarcely six hours to live, but he was strong for the moment, and when a Catholic 2 came and performed for him the last living he seemed happy to enjoy that biessing, and he raised himself up on one of his elbows and talked with strength and intelligence, He seemed to forget, for the moment, his awfal bvodll in, in his anguish at enya, unprotected Tiswie and children. His body and limbs were all a crisp, terrible to look upon; but, strange to say, his hair had not been in the least singed. Drs. New- ton and Gittenan waited upon him, but It was evident that he was beyond their cure ‘and had only to wait So he was taken to his poor home, on Second a1 Taant formed last might that when it occurred there was fire in the cauldron and that had been let Into the holder for six hours.

The market for city property is becoming miore flat every day, the transactions growing fewer and less interesting each succeeding week. This prostrar _ tion is not accompanied with any weaker feeling inde sirabie property situated on the line or in the borhood of required improvements actually construction, as was amply proven by the gale of Boulevard lots, to which reference was made yeater- day. In further proof of this, and as indicating the nature of the improvement required to place West chester property fairly in competition with other suburban real estate, and as furnishing the real reason why so many sales of that class of property were comparative failures this year, is cited the fol- lowing example:— Last week was a busy one with the people of Unionport, Westchester county, who just begin to realize for a txed fact what has heretofore beeu merely prospective—namely, that a dona fide rail- Toad and a@ boulevard 100 feet wide are to pass t > th the town and connect it Reg Brora throug! After many fruitless attempts this great is in @ fair way to be accomplished, and several gangs of laborers are now é! mn diaging snd grading for the Unionport, Portchester ai Avenue Railroad, z ‘The importance of this movement can hardly be concetved at the present time; but regarding tis possible results, take into consideration that chester 1s almost at the State line between New York and Connecticut, and that only a short Cr would connect the new enterprise with the Railroad, aud by so doing thus open a new to Boston and New Haven, and in fact the whole been besides as its immediate result, placing a vast extent of country on the East river and Sound shore within twenty and thirty minutes’ ride by rail with the city ol New York, and an idea of 1ts importance may be gained. The extension of this road through Comnec- ticut 18 now being agitated by the property-holders, with a view to applying for the right of way to the Connecticut Legislature next winter, At Unionport a greater activity seems to ie than at the sister villages, over 200 lots wing changed hands, at greatly advanced rates, dui a period of two weeks, and the demand for small plots still being active by parties coming from the city bey = view to sens and pee oe of that ealthy and picturesque locality. Many are pur- chasing for speculative purpose:, provably, having i confidence in the still greaver mise in real estate as soon as the work is completed on the railroad and Boulevard; but many more simply purchase for their own use, the place offering great inducement those wishing to make homes there, from the su- perior class of residences already erected, A steam ferryboat makes regular trips datiy between port dock and Fulton street, New York, wi lishing and boat sailing and its magniticent of the East river and surrounding country, Unionport stands unrivalled. Already the lively sound hammer is heard on new buil in the course of erection, while a aid number more have been contracted for to be built during the present season. The gas-question ls now being agitated and a meet- ing has been calied for next week to take into cone sideration tie propriety of having the Westchester Gastight Company continue their main from West Farms (one inue distant) to Unionport, with a view to have the principal streets of Uaionport lit with i eEmerprise of this kind 1s certain to pay, which is about the greatest stimulus to engage in it that be applied. : : In contrast to the demand for property on the east side of Westchester county is the dulness om the West side, a8 exuibited in the failure of a recent sale of Yonkers lots. It beans however, in fed latter. case, that the owners reaily expect to yet much, as some inack lots were on pg the sale was stopped at an average of over $6,000 per acre, and whavever the local attractions may. be, yet for all purposes of suburban residence this seems enougii to pay, where travel to and from the subjected to the vexatious delays of ratlroad the Hudson River, as such a great distance-has to be - travelled on horse cars from the depot to the busi- vere dealin yesterday were light Et i 5 The dealings in the market and present no new features.
