Mr. Woop stated that not the first dollar had been received of the millions of dollars due to the Board, The compinaies had some doubt of their Fight to it.

The New Board of Aldermen. The adjourned meeting of the dourd of Aldermen Was held yesterday. There was a goodly number Of loungers in the lobbies, and when tne doors ‘were Opened by the police who had charge of the Chamber there was a rush of the public, and very Speedily the space in front of the railing was crowded and the-outer doors were closed. Captain ‘Thorne with a detachment or his men were enablod to preserve order and there was not the slightest interruption to the progress of the proceedings. Precisely at one o'clock, Mr. Samuel B. H. Vance, as temporary President, calied the Board to order. Wien Mr. Vance had done this he sald that he was Gesirous of stating that in view of the anomalous position as to the status of some of the gentlemen who claim to be members of ‘the Board, he had dl. rected the Clerk not to call the names of these gen- tlemen uuless ordered to do so by tne Board. The roll was then called, and neither tae names of Measrs. Piunkitt and Coman or Messrs. Jerome and Hart were called, The minutes of the last Board were then read. Alderman Frrzceraup handed to the Clerk the following resolution:— Resolved, That this Board does not recognize the right of the Mayor to appoint Aldermen for the city of New York, The PRESIDENT ruled that the motion was not in order, , Alderman JENKINS VAN SCHAICK sald that if the nates were approved it would endorse the ap- pointment by the Mayor of the two members, | Phe Crain said that it was simply a motion as-to Prhotkor the Clerk had correctly entered the mutes, Alderman COCHRANE agreed with tne raling of the Chair, and thougnt Alderman Van Schaick should take the question on the approval of the minutes, Aiderman VAN SCHAIOK said that he objected vo ac. knowledging the right of Mayor Hall to appoint Al- dermen. Tue Mayor did not read any list of names, All that he did was to come into the chamber, make a@specch and administer the oath of oMce. The ragraph on page 5 of the minutes formed no part of the Mayor’s adaress to the Aldermen. He ‘ould, therefore, move that it be struck out. The following is the paragraph referred to:— ‘There being a doubt whether or no at tho Inst general elec: tion it was legally proper to vote for Aldermen aud Assistant Aldermen of the city of New York, as weil as whether or no es rr 8 day, hereby, for the gake Of what legal effuct may be entivied (and for the further reason that 1 consider myself, by e intended action of the late Common Counell,’ nt berty to act according to my own judgment), declare, as jayor, that vacancies do now exist in the ollices of Alder- Then and Assistant Aldermen of the city of New York; d, therefore, I do, by virtue of law, appoint (ag being « jooai autaority of the city) to the oflices of Aldermen, "eter Gilsey, Jenkins Van Schaick, William Radde, James itagerald, William Jovee, James McLaren, Daniel D, Conover, Alexander Wilder, Alexander Martin, John.

A communication had been received from Comptroller Green which stated that the Board of Aldermen was paving salaries that amounied to $75,300 per year, or at the rate of $114 52 per day. He made thai motion tn order that measures might be taken to appoint such clerks as tue exigencies of the case required. ‘Two of the temen named in the resolution had resigned nd had been appointed to other positions, so that they could not be very much hurt. He should hke to understand whether the Bosrd had auy power to do anything at all.

Precisely at three o'clock Alderman Vance callod the Board to order and ordered the Clerk to read tae Toil Guly four members weie present, and the Board was declared by the President to stand ad- Jonrned, sudjsei to the usual call, Mr. Vance tm- mediately left is seat, but before tue Lad got out of the circie of the Aldermante seats he was met by Alderman Cochrane and several members of the Board. They were of course astounded to find that the Board was adjourned, 1 then betng only five minutes peas three o'clock. There was a little recrimination. Alderman Cochrane and other mem- bers said’ that it was an “unpariiamentary” pre 3 that it was faking a “snap judgment,” and, onally, that it was “sharp practice.” Mr. Vaace, however, left the room. Members of the Board nm to arrive, and it was determined to hold another session, Mr. Vance returned and sald he was not desirous of doing ing that was illega:. He took the chair, aud at fifteen minutes three o'clock the Clerk received a call of the 1, upon witich Mr. Vance acied wt once by ordering the roll to be called, Mr. Vance satd that it was always bis practice to be prompt in tho at- tendance on meetings. He found that there was not a quorum after the roll was called, and the Board was, therefore, adjourned. He understood that the clock was a little too fast, alse. He liad no desire to interfere with any plaus gentlemen might have. On motion of Alderman ConNER the Board ad- Journed until Monday at two o'clock. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURR TO ORGANIZE. ‘The popular impression 13 that the failure to or. panies 4s attributable to the inability of the Board 0 decide upon a President, This is not quite cor- rect. Mr. Vance’s chances of election to the dency are very remote. [i a decision can be arrived at a3 Lo the pats of the Board, and especially as Lo the Clerkship, it will cut the Gordion knot of alfMiculty, and the Presidency will be immediately decided upon. In alt probability it will be in favor of General Cochrane, ‘The New Board of Assistant Aldermet. The new Board of Assistant Aldermen met yester- day in their Chamber, in the City Hall, The lobby Was, as usual, densely crowded with roughs and place-hunters, In nearly every case, however, the diamond pins had disappeared from the ehirt bosoms of these persons, There seemed to be a reel- | Ing of depression among these fellows, that was in itself a cheerful augury for the benefit of the citizens of New York. At two o’clock the roll was called by the Clerk, Mr. Joseph Dempsey, who had his hands full of business, and was flying around with the velocity of a steam engine. Assistant Alderman Christian Schwartz, the only “Christian”? who has ever sat there, according to Assistant Alderman Healy, occupied the chair. There was a 6 deal of wire-pulling and pipe-lay- ing manifest among the members, and several Openly expressed their discontent and dissatisfac- tion at the way “‘chings were going.” The day of ‘cakes and ale’ had evidently gone by, and the stern facts of the last three months’ teaching loomed up in a dreadtul manner before the eyes ot the Assistant City Fathers, Nothing, how- ever, was done, as the fraud seems to be so evenly divided that it was found necossary to take a recess of half an hour to make combinations tor the division of the much valued public patronage. At present the Board of twenty- one Assistant Aldermen stands politically and morally as follows:— Zummany. Reforms Republican, Gavin, Strack, Hail, Stacom, Kraus, Pinckney, McDonald, Foley, Schwartz, Littletield, Geis, Wade, Costello, Oumiskey. Hart, O'Brien (*“Dutchy"), Conuor, & Robinson, Coddington, Healy. Simonson. Total, 8. Total, 6. Total, 8. it will be seen by this table that the reformers hoiu the valance of power, as the republicans and Tammany men are equally divided on @ vote. Should the republicans he able to get two votes Jrom the reformera, and the Tammanyites also re- ceive the assistance of two reformers, then the re- former who stands out will be able ‘to get a large amount of money. Soa HERALD reporter was in- formed by an old and experienced politician who has hung around the City Hall, watt ng for crumbs, during the last eighteen years. ‘here will be @ lively fight, it is expected, at the meeting of the Board, which was ad- journed unul four o'clock on next Monday, for the Presidency of the Assistant Aldermen. ‘the candidates who are in the flelad are John Stacom (Tammany), who has tho advantage in point of ex- rience; Otis D, Hall (repubdiican), George F. raus (reform) and Charles Pinckney (republican). Aiter recess not! ing was done in the way of organ- ization, although the pipe-laying continued with terrific force, and the Board passed out between Miles of policemeu, who were appointed to guard them from a row, and a horde of bummers who had ralhed trom the various drinking saloons, being very much disappointed at the manifest dearth of free lunch supplies. There is fun aheud for the next meeting, and possibly a few broken heads may be the result on Munday’s meeting. ‘The Connolly Case. Messrs, O’Conof'and Peckham, on behalf of the people, and Messrs, Courtney and Beach, on behalf of Mr. Connolly, will argue upon the motion to vacate the order of arrest velore the Supreme Court at Albany to-day. They ieft this city last evening for the State capital. MRS. DR. CONNOLLY'S LUNACY. eee er Post-Mortem Raid—Order of the eming the Appointment of a An Court Committee. In the matter of Ellen M. B. Connolly. On the 27th of September last a commission in the nature of a writ de lunatico inquerendo was issued out of the Supreme Court to Henry J, Callen, Jr., Johu J. Crane and John R, Fellows to inquire into the lunacy of Elien M. B. Connolly, wife of Dr. J. J. Connolly, whose death was the immediate cause of Mrs, Connolly's malady. At an inquisition held on Jclober 17 the unfortunate woman was found by the Commissioners and a jury to be a lunatic, and On the 4th of November an order was entered con- forming the finding of the jury and appointing Selah B, Strong, Jr., committee of hor estate and person. This appointment was made upon the con- sent of John Henry and Thomas Kelloran, two of the next of Kin of Mrs. Connolly. ‘Tae jurors at the inquisition found Peter, Jon, Dominick, Bernard, Thomas and Mary Agnes Kil- joran as next of Kin, so that the consent of ull the next of kin for the appointment of Mr. Strong as committee was not obtained, and there was no proof that any nouce was served on the rest of the next of kin of the application for such appoint- ment, Strong, s00n alter taking possession of the estate, sold the lunatic’s personai property without first obtaining an order of the Court. Upon this Mr. H, C. Denison, on dehalf of Thomas Kilioran, one of Mrs, Connoily’s brothers, moved before Jnage Cardozo to remove Mr. Strong, on the ground that the order under which he was appointed was irregu- lar, and further that he had exceeded his authority. 1t Was urged in opposition that due notice had been given to ali the parties mterested with the excep- uon of Peter Kelloran, who is serving a term in the State Prison, and that the sale was made for the best Interest of the estate, The motion to remove the committee was denied, whereupon an appeal was taken to the General Term, which came up yes- térday morning before Judges Ingraham and Bar nara, Mr. Denison argued for the appellant that as all the next of Kin did not unite in the re or give their consent ‘or the appointment of Mr. Strong, it ‘Was void, and im support cited the case of Lamo- ree, In which the Court, at General Term, held that an inquisition should be set aside and a new commission issued where a stranger 1s appointed the committee without the consent of the relatives and next of kin of the lunatic, and without a refer- ence and notice to persons prospectively interested in the estate, He further contended that the bond given by Mr. Strong was inadequate tothe amount of property involved, and that it should be in double the value of the real and personal estate of tne lunatic, and, further, that the cummitiee had no at to sell any oe of the property without first obtaining leave Tom the Court. On behalf of the committee Mr. Asa A. Spear ar- gued that the order ewe from was not appeal- able. as it did not affect any substantial right or tne petitioner; that the proceedings were regular in every respect, and that the sale was authorized by the state of ‘acts which extsted, and proved benefl- cial in ity results. The bona already tiled in the amount of $10,000 was ample, more than covering Mra. Connolly's personal property; and he did not think the Court could require a bond for her per- sonal estate, The Court afiirmed the order of the Court below so far as Lobel bag appointment of the commit. tee, out mcreased the amount of the bond to $20,000, and gave costs to the appellant. THIEVES AT THE YOUNG MEN'S OHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION, For some time past the members of the gymnasium attached to the Young Men’s Onristian Association, at the corner of Fourth avenue and Twenty-third Street, have been annoyed by some party or parties visiting their closets and stealing watches, wallets and any little articles of value they would leave to their pockets. Suspicion at last fell upon a rea- headed youth, eighteen years of named Francis Mahon, of 225 West Twenty-elghth ‘@ member of the gymnasium and association, who rarely vis- ited the former, but could be ly seen hanging, around ‘we closets, Chaties W, Blodgets, of Lexington avenue, one of the memuers Weanteday nignt determined to w Lo ts the members who was perform! rummaging in his pants pocket, of the members for an oficer, who returned with Officer Ue ind of the Twenty-ninth preciact, who conveyed the young man to the station house in Thirtteth street and locked him up for the balance of the night, He was conveyed be Justice C at Jeferson Market, yesterday aporning, where complaint was preferred against alm in accordance with the above tacts, He pleaaéd not guilty to the chara, LUE was committed {or oxamination, | FINANCIAL AND COMHERCIAL.
