Re eee RE ALTER THE TUNNES “FROG AG: Lewis B, How the Jersey Railroad Monopoly was Es- tablished—A Bribo of $278,000—The “Old Max of the Street” Called For. No one will venture to deny that one good at least will result from the ratiroad war now being waged in New Jersey. The railroad stockholders and the public at large will be enlightened on many points that have been to them mysteries heretofore. The people will learn by degrees the secret workings of the great monopolies which have crashed out com- petition and have alapds An aristocracy of wealth which in New Jersey has controlled legisiauon to a large extent. The origimal sult between the Erie and the Dela- ware and Lackawanna was brought to determine the question whether the latier had a legal right to ae through the tunnel eyatoue ayinent of tolls to he Erje. Testimony was taken in this suit yester- day before Mr. Douglass, Master in Chancery, at Jersey City. A. L, Dennis, President of the consoil- dated railroads of New Jersey, or, as they are tecli- nically termed she, NThAD RarrRoaD COMPANTRS, testified among other thiags that the New Jersey Ralircad company paid in monthly instalments vo the late Edwin A. Stevens the sum of $273,000, In consideration of an agreement that he would not build arallroad so as to effect a junction with the New Jersey Railroad east of the Hackensack, which he was authorized to do by a charter he ob- tained. About the year 1859 the company refused to any more, and Mr. Stevens accordingly threatened to build a railroad accord- ing to his charter; but this resolution he never car- ried out, ee cay to his subsequent negotia- tions with the Morris and Essex Ratlroad Company. But the New Jersey Railroad Company nad carried their point in CRUSHING OUT ALL COMPETITION nd laying the foundation of the railroad monopoly van to-day virtually controls the State of New jersey, Mr. Guppy, Assistant Superintendent of the Erte, Was placed on the stand and testified to the nego- tiatons between the Erie and the Morris and Essex. Daniel Drew’s turn came gext, but the old man was ot-present. He sent an apology that owing to the Areat pressure of business on the “street” be could not attend that day, The case was then postponed. Mr. Leon Abbett appeared for the Erie and ex-Chan- celior Williamson tor the Delaware and Lackawanna, THE WEST CHESTER ATROCITY. Caen An Inhuman Hasband—Precarious Condition of Mrs. Coanor—Probabi Marder of a Wife. The cowardly and murderous assault alleged to have been perpetrated by a laborer named John Connor and his brother, on the wile of the former, @ night or two since, near the village of West Chester, in Westchester county,;particuiars of which appeared in the HBRaLp of yesterday, has, contrary to expectation, not yet veen attended with fatul resuits. It was ascertained yesterda afternoon that the unfortunate woman, though stu living, Was not expected to survive jong the terrible injuries inflicted by the brute who scarcely one year ago swore at the altar to cherish and protect her. The inhussan attack on Mrs. Connor is rendered doubly atrecious by her condition at the time, being SUCA as to Warrant the belief that the life of her un- ois vannalat ela wantonly sacrificed heii the unconscloud wife tiad been carried home on the might of the assault, it appears that her bro- ther-in-law immediately repaired to the house, and, Raving knocketl repeatedly for admittance without receiving a reply, forced an entrance and found the woman apparently Oo Rd ad her husband, who sat in the same room, to give any account of his conduct. At last accounts Connor and his brother had not been arrested. If justice has not absolutely fled the county this case of perhaps double murder calls loudly for prompt action on the part of the authorities, A Mrs. Inman, wife of Stephen, residing in the town of Baldwin, N, Y., 18 ninety-six years old, and enjoys such very good health that one day this fall she wove four yards of flannel.

Language of the Indictment-The Prisoner and * His Statement. BRIDGEPORT, Dec. 29, 1870. The Hera.p of the 26th inst, contained ap ac- count of the somewhat romantic adventures and the subsequent arrest of Samuel F. Andrews upon the charge of defrauding Mra, Antoinette Gridley, a Con- necticut widow, by whom he had been employed ascoachman, It wiil be remembered that Andrews Was arrested upon the United States war steamer Callfornia then lying at Charlestown, Mass., upon which he had shipped as seaman. He was brought on to this clty on Tuesday afternoon by Captain Ryland, of the Bridgeport police force, and is now under arrest at the station house, awaiting his trial, which is expected to shortly take place before Judge Bollock, Contrary to the report published in the Hartford papers, he has made no admission of gulltsince his arrest, but, as stated in the article published Jn the HERALD, claims to have ACTED IN GOOD FAITH © towards hig former employers throughout bis whole connection with them. In the vpinion of many who have listened to his story, though it is certainly a remarkable one, 1t does not appear entirely improb- able, and is certainly consistent in all its details, a statement which cannot be applied to the numerous accusations which ave been made against him. As stated in the HERALD, he was orgmally arrested in Charlestown upon the charge ef purloining from his employers gems to the vatue of THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS, an amount which, to say the least, would seem to be pretty large to have been invested in prectous stones by a lady Whose entire fortune is not claimed to have exceeded at any one time the sum of $76,000, In the deposition of his accuser, Mrs. Gridley taken atSpriagtield, Mass, subsequent to his arresi it will be observed that no mentien 1&8 made of he having been robbed of that amount, or, Indeed, of the loss of any Jewelry whatever. ‘The’ following is the deposition reterréd to: MRS.

Buell, of Springfeld, claiming to be a police detective, by whom the arrest was made and who commenced similar perceeaae in Hartford! but subsequently abandoned them. In the technical lapguage of the indictment it is asserted “that the auld Sarnnel F. Andyus was the clerk, cashier and agent of Antoinette Gridley and Antoinette H. Grid- ley, and was engaged in carrying on the business of transporting amd forwarding money, coin and bank billé; and that the said Andras, wifh force and arm: at sald city of Bridgeport, on the 6th day of July, 1866, with intent to defraud the said Antoinette Gridley and Antoinette H. Gridley, did take, purloin, secrete and in other ways appropriate to hfs own use cer- tain of sald valuable moneys, coins, bank bills and other articles, to wit, $15,000 of lawful money of the Unjted Stgtes, which said money was in the care and custody of the said Samuel F, Andrus, so engaged as aforesaid.” Mrs, Gridley and her Dang her arrived in Bridge- port yesterd: afternoon from Springfleld, where they have lately resided, and took up their quarters at the Atlantic Hotel. The Hon. Gideon H. Hollister, ex-Minister of the United States to Haytl, has been engaged by her to take a oe of the case for the peo . The defence will be conducted by ex- fudge D. B. Lockwood, of Bridgeport, when toe case comes up, though, in the opinion of many, it Is doubtful if it will HAVER BR BROUGHT INTO COURT at all, the period of more than four years being ad- multted to have clapged since ihe offence specified in the Indictwent was committed, if ever, during the greater part of which period the accusers and ac- cused have lived together upon the best possibie terms. Mrs. Gridley and her daughter are well known tn this community, having bourded fora long time at the Sterling aod Atlantic Hotels, where their lavish expenditure of mepey, handsome dresses and showy turnouts made them very censplcuous, The elder lady was endowed with a full share of that acuteness which caused Mr. Weller, Senior, to caution his son, in such moving terms, to “BRBVARE OF THB VIDDERS, SAMMY,"? and it would bave been well for the modern Samuel had he heeded the pathetic advice. A “dead set” Was made by her on different occasions at the affec- tlens of two promnent bachelors whe boarded at the same hotel with her, one & wealthy merchant and the ether a dignitary at the bar, but she falled to ensnare either of her cautious admirers into the chalng of matrimony. Lindeucroft, the former residence of Mr. P. 7. Barnum, was juspected by her with the Idea of pur- chasing it, bul it fatied to sult her ideas, THE DASHING WIDOW, not having been accustomed to high life during the life time of the late Mr. Gridley, in Whose house! 5 in fact, before her marriage, Ske had oAiciated in the capacity ef cook, had apparently adoptod the motto of ‘a short iife and a merry one,” and seemed resolved to enjoy herself while her money lasted. Her former coacuman, Andrews, has been vistied at HIS LODGINGS AT THE STATION HOUSE by many curious inguirers who remember him dur- ing hts residence ip this city. He is dressed in his sallor’s uniform which he wore at the time of his arrest, He js about thirty-two years of age, thougi looking yore fer; 13 of good address, and tells a pppolent siblé story.

UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT. pertant Question of Jarisdict Belore Judge Woodruf, A few months #ince Alexis Nicholas, an alleged notorious counterfeiter, was tried and convicted In this district before Judge Benedict, of the Bastern District, Who, at the time of the trial and conviction, was sitting to this (Soutuern) district to wy causes on the criminal calendar, Joel B. Erkardt, counsel for Nicholas, made application to Judge Woodrull for the discharge of Nicholas on habeas cerpus, On the ground that the trial and conviction were tle, al, us, by the terms of the law creating the new ‘recut Court judges, district judges were confined to thelr respective districts, and coula not legally hold court in any other than thetr own alstricts, It seems that a$ the law stood prior to the enc’ ment creating the new Cireult Court judges it was Andisputably the right of District Court judges to sil, a8 Occasion Mught reqnire, tn districts other than thelr own, ‘Lhe new law does not, in express terms, prohibit this right, but recites that the per- sous Who may hold court in the several districts composing a@ circuit are the Circuit Judge and the District Court Judges tn their respective districts. The construction put upon tus provision of the new law by counsel for Nicholas was that it repealed the provision of the old law permitting district juages to sit in districts other than thew own. “Judge Woodrum decided that this provision of the new law does not repeal the provision of the old law, as, while it recites who may sit in the several districts, it does not in terms prohibit the district Judges from sitting in districts other than their own, aud it requires something more than implication to reader null a provision of law that experienee has suowa to be not only condactve to the proper despaich of business, but absolutely necessary in many cases 10 a proper dispensation of jusiice, The wiotion was dente A Counterfeiting Case.

SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS. The Proposed Sale of St. Aan’s Church, in Eighth Street. Before Judge Ingraham. In Me Matter of the Sale of Real Estate by (he Trus- tees of St. Patrick's Cathedral, New York.—An ap- plication was made through petition of the trustees named for permission to sell St. Ann's chureh, tn righth street. The petition sets forth that they awe about to erect a new church in East Twelfth street, and that A. T. Stewart has offered to buy the church property in Eighth street, consisting of St. Ann’s church, @ parsonage and school house, stipulating to pay for the same $75,000 cash and assume a mortgage of $50,000 on the property. It is further etated that the ground upon which the church 18 built is held by the trustees in fee simple, but that the ground upon whicn the parsonage and echool house aro built ts leasehold property, having been leased from May 1, 1860, tor twenty-one years, It also appears that the lease was held by Agnes Robertson Boucicault, wife of Dion Boucl- cault, which in December, 1863, she assigned to the trustees. The yalue of the church and lot is placed at $86,000 And the lease at $40,000. The Judge granted an order permitting the sale, and directing that after payihg the expenses of the transfer the residue of the purchase money be ap- led toward the erection of the church tn East welfth street, Decisions.

Some women who want to vote and some men who want them to vote, held rather a lively meeting yesterday inthe rooms of the New York Suffrage Society. After a good deal of loitering and incense- quent chat over a slow fire, the meeting was called to order by Dr. Hallock, and proceeded to Isten to @ paper from Mrs. Dr. Sowerby. Mrs. Sowerby in- voked freedom. She afMirmed that ever in America the word Is # misnomer. She thought that the times demanded THE VOICE OF WOMAN in civil and pglitical affairs. Government, as so far developed, i faliure. The few role the many; elections are gained by ROCKETS AND BAD WHISKEY. She wanted the best men and women to form-a new party and purge politics, She felt that she had the power to apply her mind to every question that occupies the mascultne brain, and that every right that man claims is hers also, No one could keep her from STUDYING POLITICAL BCONOMY, and she knew that the real rulers were political hucksters, vermin ef the lobby, railroad kings and corrupt judges. Dr. Hallock showed that tife ont way to make the world right is te purify the ind vidual, and in this work woman finds her place. He wanted the best men and women that the country aiforded to take part in its affairs and generate the best tdeas, Mrs. HALLOCK took a discouraging view of the case, and thought that the centemptible way tn which the press speaks of women ought to sting them Into retaliation. NM One would suppose a woman something apart from the human race, judging from the talk abeut them in the papers. Miss Edgerton lectures against woman suffrage, yet she never could have appeared upom a platform had it not been for the hard work of the pioneers; amd a certain littie reporter, who owed a great deal to the agitators, now sharpened her pencil and her wit against them, A lady from the provinces said ahe had ° COMB TO NEW YORK TO GET FORTIFIED.
