STOKES. How Grand Juries Are Empan- elled and Sworn. Deputy County Clerk Gumbleton and Deputy Commissioner of Grand Jurors Childs on the Stand.” Another Day of Legal Technicali- ties and Quibbles. ‘Yesterday's session in the Court of Oyer and Ter- Minor on the trial py a petit jury of the legality of the indictment round by the Grand Jury against Edward 8, Stokes, for the murder of the late James Fisk, Jr., was another prolonged legal tlt between counsel on the technicality of the law prescriping the mode in which Grand Jurors shall be empanelled and sworn to “true presentment make’’ in ali cases submitted to them. ‘There was a very evident fall- ing off in the interest hitherto manifested in the progress of this case from the tact of the conviction that has gone abroad that itis not Stokes who 1s upon. ‘trial, but the Grand Jury who indicted him. In this latter there is no Interest, as if even in the case of a result against the prosecution, another Grand Jury would be immediately entrusted with the duty of hearing the same testimony and coming, no doubt, tothe same conclusion arrived at by the Grand Jury now on trial. ‘The prisoner seems to gather fresh courage in the absence of the crowds that awaited his arrival on ‘the previous days and watched for his guarded de- Parture from the crowded court room to bis lonely cell in the Tombs, The first vusiness yesterday morning was the production by Mr. Sparks of the Ustof the Grand Jury of Oyer and Terminer, em- panelled December 17, 1871, and discharged Janu- ary, 1872, This DOCUMENT WAS PUT IN EVIDENCE. In reply to Mr. McKeon, Mr. Sparks sald within the past two ycars the same persons have been drawn on various Grand Jury panels; he meant as to the general metuod of drawing them, but could mot remember any parucular names, . THE GRAND JURY LIST. Mr. Gumbleton, Deputy County Clerk, re-examined by Mr. Gerry—This list which I produce of the Grand Jury, filed September 9, contains 619 name, includ- ing the erasures; there are sixteen erasures; I don’t know who made them.

The DISTRICT ArvoRNKY having made an obdjec- tion to this line of examination, Mr. McKEos appeaied to His Houor, and said this ‘Was one of the most inportant questions ever pre- sented to a Court aud jury. Judge CaRpozo -uld he had already decided to take all the evidence, as the shoriest way o1 getting through the case, bu: it would finally resolve itself dnto a question oi luw, Whatever course they took.

THE DEPUTY COMMISSIONER OF JURORS EXAMINED, Caspar C,. Childs, veputy Commissioner of Jurors, examined by Mr. Mcneon—I'ne Commissioner 18 Dougias Tavior; he was appointed five years ago by the Judges; he 18 expected here to-day from Ha- vana:; roduce the book of minutes of the Board of Commissioners last September; I have under my control twenty-six pooks of names of luavle jurors and twenty-six of exempt bao tond ay and peut jurors—lettered.

About filteen thousand. 234 Were ‘A resent at the Board of Commisston- ers in Séptémbér, 1s717 A. No; they hold it ina room partioned off. o Who appointed you and your deputy, Mr. Cohen? A, ‘the Commusstoners. Q Which of the Vommussioners was present? A. I don’t remember. ‘phe book of minutes was then tendered in evi- dence, and the District Attorney objected. Mr. McKeon said that book exactly carried out the averments in his seventh piea, He calied at the office and asked for the book, and Unllds in- formed him he couidu’t get it. lt shows (read- Ing) that on the oth of September Mayor Hall, Ohief Justice Barvour, Recorder Hackett and Judge Bedford met aud lormed a board, The Commis- sioner of Jurors presented a list of petit jurors, and glso (as our plea avers) “a list of persons desirous to serve as Grand Jurors”—which last 13 the one we refer to in our pleadings a8 an irregular list, com- posed by a person or persons unknown and unautho- rized by law, because the Grand Jury shoulli be selected from the Petty Jury list. The minute then states that on the motion of Recorder Hackett Judge Barbour, the Chairman, appototed a comiittee of two, consisting of Judge Bedford and Mayor Hall, to make out a list o1 names, not more than a thou- sand or less than six hundred, to serve as grana jurors far tne year. On the 9th September “the committee reported the names of —— citizens.’ It was orginally blank and was filled up im pencil with “662.” 1 would like to know who filed it up, leaving the whole Grand Jury to one man, Judge Cardozo received in evidence all that Mr. McKeon read, except the names oi the Commis- sioners who Were present, it being immaterial who they were, as they were properly organized. He paid it appears that the District Attorney does not traverse the various allegations in the seventh plea for Stokes, as to the irregularities in making up the Grand Jury list, witn (he single exception that he avers toat they are “good and lawiul men,” and on this issue he will go to the jury. Counsel for the ner, Mr. McKeon, says he wants to have the ne put to the Jury whether the requirements of the law were complied with; and that the ground taken by the District Attorney }s tantamount to say~ ing it don’t matter whether thé law was complied with or not, they were sworn in as grand jurors, \d they indicted him. bared Dyer was examined as to his name being on the Grand Jury list filed September 9. Witness found the address given as ‘i70 Nassau street,” which was the old Tammany Hall, ‘A NON-RESIDENT. ‘Witness declared he had not resided in this coun- ty since 1852; has been in Minnesota, and 1s now in Westchester; never received @ summons to ‘attend the Grand Jury, and never applied to be put ‘On the list; his only sdpposition 1s that one day in aly last he Was in Mayor Hall's oflice, and fis Hohor ‘said he had put or was going to put his fea on, and witness asked the Mayor whether he he power to do sv, and the Mayor replied yes, e believed ‘that was left to him, and sald, in his usual complimentary way, that he wanted gentle- men onthe Grand Jury, CHIE JUSTICE BARBOUR EXAMINED, ‘The next witness called was Chief Justice eck) of the Superior Court.

The lowest rate on governments ‘Was 6 per cent, with the dealings generally at 7 per cent, The increased demand 18 recerred to another “locking-up’’ of currency by speculators interested in lower prices at the Stock Exchange.

Noreign exchange was steady on tne basis of 10944 a 10934 for prime bankers’ sixty day sterling and 110 a 110% for sight bills, THE GOVERNMENT PURCHASE OF BONDS. ‘The Assistant Treasurer at noon opened proposals to sell fve-twenties to the government, and found tenders of $3,171,950 at prices ranging from 108.73 to 110.92, The miilion purchased was obtained at 108,78 a 109,39—gold at the time being 110.25. GOVERNMENIS STRONG. The government list was strong, in sympathy with a further improvement in the London market, and advanced @ 34 per cent, holding the rise to the close of the day except for the new fives, which after sales at 109 fell off a fraction, in sympathy with @ corresponding movement on the other side of tne Atlantic.

The gold market was unchanged in its general features, and the day’s fluctuations were confined toa limit of % per cent—viz., 11034 110%, the real business being at 110%. In the morning, in the absence of cable prices, the entire dealings were at 110 and 110% alternately, but witn the arrival of word from London that there was no alteration of the discount rate by the Bank of England, and that our bonds were higher, the price fell off to 11034, but reacted to 110'4, which thenceforward was the un- varied price, and was bid at the close, against 110 6-16 asked. ‘The rates in the loan market ranged from 6 per cent for carrying to flat for porrowing. ‘The operations ot the Gold Exchange Bank were a8 follows: — Gold cleared Gold balances Ourrency ba! STOCKS DULL, HEAVY AND LOWER. ‘The stock market was dull, and in the alternoon became heavy and weak, prices toward the close falling of about one per cent for Union Pacific, Pacific Mall, Ohios, Western Union, Rock Island and Waoash, in which the wider fluctua- tions of the day occurred, the rest of the list, while heavy, being only % @ 3 per cent lower, In this enumeration exception 1s made of Hannibal and st. Joseph, whicn fluctuated 434 per cent, chiefly on cash transactions between the extremes of 4234 and 47, The unenviable char- acter of the operation attending the creation of the new stock has induced many of the respectable brokers to dissolve their connection with the specu- lation for a decline, and hence in forcing their prin- cipals to ciose out their accounts they were under the necessity of buying cash stock at the lat- ter’s expense. A further effort was made to compel the receipt of the new stock to-day, but the fact coming to the knowledge of the President of the Stock Exchange that gentleman announced that any future tender of the new stock within the thirty days would sudject the proker to expulsion from the Board, This immediately put a stop to the peripatetic notary and witness business, the Stock Excnange being most the competent judge of its own jurisdiction. In this connection we beg leave to remind the public that we cailed attention over @ year .ago to the fact that a number of stocks on the active or semi-active list were unregistered, and some of them so specified are as yet unregis- tered. lu the case of Hannibal and St. Joseph registration was demanded only last November; but the request was unheeded and allowed to go unat- tended to until the rumor got afloat that the direct- ors contemplated @ new issue. The Governing Committee made public the following resolution as the result of their latest action with reference to this question:— Resolved, That by the resolution of January 31, 187/, adopted by the Governing Committee, to wit:— “that uncil the transier books of the Hanaival and St. Joseph Railroad Company have deen reopened, and the stock duly registered in accordance with the ruies 0 the Stock Exchange, no stock shall be a good deitvery, except such as have been already issued and countersigned at the office of Duncan, Sherman & Co,” it euiered Into ana became @ part of the contract of the members of this Exchange from that date, Resolved, That the selection of the place of regisiry made by the Hannibal ang St, Joseph Rail- Toad Company 18 not, satusfactory to the Governing Commitee, and thet the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad Company be potilied that the new Issue of their stock will not be dealt in by tue Exchange until atter thirty days’ notice of said issue has beea given aud a satisfactory registty becn establisned; and that meanwhile no certificates shall be a good de- livery in settlement of contracts except those coun- tersigned by Dancan, Sherman & Co., transier agents, and issued prior to Nos. 2,434 for common stock and 2,832 for preferred stock. The place of registration not satisfactory to the Governors 1s the Tenth National Bank, which, whatever its reputation now, was once upon a time supposed vehicle of the Erie “ring” in monetary and speculative matters, Acard from one of the directors of the Hannibal and St. Joseph Rattroad offers an explanation of tne new issue, as follows:— In reference to the action of the directors of the Hannibal and St. Juseph Ratiroad Company ia increasing the capital stock the following facts are presente hen the new direction came into possession they supposed the property of far more more value and in better con- dition than subsequent examination has proved, A careful survey and estimate was consequenuy made, and it was decided tat at least $3,000,000 would be required in order to put the road im good working order, a3 Well a3 to provide for the matur- ing obligations of the Nia a a larger portion of which sum woutd be necessarily disbursed duriog the present year. 1t would seem that the old Board of Direciors had already contemplated the exi- geucies as carly as February 2, 1871, when they pro- vided by @ new issue of stock the moans by which the company could reduce the Longe make other improvements, and also cancel the obligations be- coming aue to the State of Missouri under the fol- lowing legislative enactment;— AX Aor to autborize the Hannibal and St. Joseph Railroad ‘Company to increase its capital stock, Be it enacted, by the General Awsembly of the State of Missouri, a8 follows :— of providing a fund to rerm- «$37,165,000 1,204,204 1,459 —For the tock hoiders of said com; trex for such amounts as may have been or may hereafter be expended in improviny the track and roadbe and in equipping the road of eal company, over and above the amount of thelr stock, and also of enabling the sald company to retire its obliga- tions to the State of Missouri and redeem and deliver to the State the bonds of the State issued on account of said company, and also to discharge such of the other liabilities as it maybe enabied to pay, ft shall be competent and law- ful for the Hoard of Directors of said any, {rom time to time, as may be found Hient, to inerease the Stock of said company to such an amount as in the 18 thal be equal to tne coat of sald road and equipment and improvements; provided that such increase, together with the existing stook, shail {a nO event exceed the cost of said ‘a, in proportion to thelr stock in sald com- ekholders of said company, to be paid such time and in such manner as the rd sell the same in tne market, in such = times and upon such terms as shall by pany: lor in maoney may direct, oF may manner and at suc! the said Board of Directors be deemed tor the best interests ‘of sald oo pany. ‘aot shall take effect and be in force from and ‘with the above the following reso- lution, moved by Mr. Netlson and seconded by Mr. Hummweil, was unanimously adopted :— Resolved, That in the opinion of this Board it is expedient that the ital stock be to ‘amount oqttal to ‘the cost of the fost-ila.cquipment aud tea provements—after deducting its outstanding indebtedness for such purposes reduced by the applica:ion of the land grant sales, whenever, in the j ‘of the directors, the con- dition of the company's affairs will warrant such The recent issue of stock was made by the Ex- ecutive Committee December 24, 1871, 11 conformity with the action of the old Board of officers, ‘The resolution given in the above card was one of two, the second being suppressed in this ingenious defence of the overissue. In justice to Mr. Neilson, ex-President of the Stock Exchange, who offered the resolutions, it is only tair to say that the second and suppressed resolution provided for a sale of new stock in accordance with the law of Missouri, which mits the lowest price of such sales to par, ¥th the legality or illegality ofthe new stock the Governing Committee profess however, to have nothing to do, They have simply declared that it 1s not a good delivery and wil not be for thirty days. During this interval a magnif- cent opportunity is afforded the stocknolders for meting out terrific punishment to the “ring” of speculators in the directory who have created the . new stock. The “ring,’’ Knowing their own inten- tions, @ month ago began .selling the stock at 62 and sold it down to 42 They supposed they would have no_ trouble in opening the transfer books whenever they pleased and delivering the new certificates. But the Gov- erning Committee of the Board interfered and ren- cered this new stock valueless for thirty dnys, Meantime the ciique had sould, according to a good estimate, fully 30,000 shares. In other words, the public at large have bought 70,000 shares of Hanni- bal and St, Joseph common stock, when there are only 40,000 shares In existence, The inierence 1s obvi- ous. The clique are “short’’ 30,090 shares, and must remain so for thirty days to come uniess forced to buy In the stock at whatever price the holaers of the stock are willing to fx. The latter should ca!l & meeting and place their interests in the hands of Let the meeting be hela right away and an organi- zation effected. Let every man who 1s an owner of Hannibal and St. Joseph com- mon stock, whether im full or in part by the process of marginal deposit, assemble at this meeting and give his interests into the charge of such aconimuittee, Let every broker and banker who Is in favor of honest dealings give his counten- ance and aid to this movement, and we shall hear no more of fraudulent stock waterings and clandes- Une over issues; for ine terribie penalty which can be inposed in this stance, will put an end to such nefarious schemes for the tuture. The Stock Exchange ought in fact to lend its hall for an immediate meeting of the stockholders upon whom this injustice would be practised. A leader like Commodore Vanderbilt might be found Who, sktifally holding the clique in tae m eshes of their own net, might cause them to gradually dis- gorge ail that they have made out of their atrocious enterprise and enough more to repay the outraged sentiment of honest men, There 1s a way of domg this, known to every havitué of Wall street. The Machinery 13 at hand if tne stockbolders will di- rect it, Apropos to this very topic we find the following in the money article of the Avening Telegram to- night;— ‘The delay of thirty days before*the new stock will be admitted to the Stock Exchange gives ample time jor the present stockholders, however, to pro- tect themseives against this gross imposition, in doing this they might profitably lear: a lesson of the Erie Protective Association of London, and re- quire of every broker jo cail im tneir certifivates from the market, stamp Them after the mauner of the English Erie stoc.nolders, in such way that they could be followed ever after, ‘ais would vo extremely usefal in case fuvure litigation should discriminate agaiust tne legality of the new Issue, and would serve to preserve their value during the progress 01 legal Controversy.

Ten Thousand Dollars’ Worth of Property Recoverrd—Escape of the Thieves. About five o’clock yesterday morning Officer Brosnan, of the Twenty-seventh precinct police, while patrolling nis post near Rector street, heard @ noise of voices, and going to the corner of the street quietly he lisvened for a moment. From the con- versation he heard going on among some men who were busy down the street the officer thought it Would not be out of place to watch them, He ao- cordingly took off his policeman’s cap and peeped round the corner.
