In re Kate FP. Ellis.—George D. Brown made appll- eation yesterday in this Court for a writ of habeas Corpus with view'to ovtain the control and guard- lanahip of Kate F. Ellis. Brown is known in the theatrical world under his own proper patronymic, ‘Miss Ellis is also well known in Thesplan circles, but under the soubriquet “The Sappho.” Mr. Brown, in his petition, states that in September, 1871, at Prescott, Canada, Henry W. Ellis, an actor, nd his wife entered into an agreement with him y Which he was to have control of the professional services of Kate F, Ellis, their daughter, for two ears, She was to have half the net profits and $500 besides each year forher wardrobe and educa- tion in music and the languages. The parents were to travel with her aud their expenses to be paid by Brown. If practicable they were also to be ‘engaged to.act with her. Brown also was to give her a star ei ment in this city within six months for six nights at least. He says that he has faithfully fulfilied his part of the contract, but that the parents of Kate prevailed upon her to have bin, and that since the 23d December she has been under thetr control aud prevented from fulfilling her agreement. The cause of her leaving him, he says, ‘was because of her father insisting ou en, ments being mace for her in varicty concert halls. The writ was made returnable ae and it is not probable that some spicy developments may be made.

A Stationery Clerk Acquitted of Alleged Larceny. Before Gunning 8. Bedford, City Judge. The fore part of the day was occupied in the trial of an indictment against Henry Oughton, charged with stealing $30 worth of paper envelopes, the roperty of his employer, George Wilson, 63 Maiden lane. The proof showed that the accused was in the habit, by order of his a of taking en- velopes to the establishment of John Fitzgerald, in order to have mourning borders put upon them, and that he did so in this iustance without orders. "The accused proved good character by highly re- @irecting the Comptroller to change the valuation @f his property on the books of the Tax Commis- @ioners for the year 1870 from $105,000 to $65,000, claiming that a mistake of $40,000 had been made fn the assessed value of the property. This was @pposed by the Comptrolier on the ground that he had no authority to make the desired change, and the Tax Commissioners declared their inability to actin the matter, the six months allowed by stat- ute for correction of the books having elapsed. The Court denied the order for a mandamus, Whereupon appeal was taken to the General Term and argued yesteraay, when the order of manda- Tous Was again refused and the order of the Coart below afirmed.

Another Car Pickpocket. Phillip Blunket was tried and convicted of steal- ing a gold watch from Henry Kunz, on the 20th of last month, while riding upon a Third avenue car.

Young Burglars Sent to the Peniten- tlary. Philip Doyle and James Devine pleaded guilty to an attempt at burglary in the third degree.

Stabbing a Police Officer. Mattison, of the Twenty-third precinct, in the arm with a pocket knife on the 2ist of May, pleaded ullty to an assault with a dangerous weapon. Mr. Hummel stated to the Court that the prisoner was intoxicated at the time he got tnto trouble with the officer and that he was never arrested for any other offence, The Judge took these extenuating circum- stances into consideration and modified the sen- tence to one year’s imprisonment in the Peniten- diary.

CITY counT. The Westficld Disaster—Proposal to ‘Transfer All the Cases to the New York Supreme Court=—Can There Be No Fair and Impartial Trials in the Brooklyn Courts? Before Judge Neilson. ‘The cases of Mary Buckley, Daniel Mahoney and Honora Foley against the Staten Island Railroad Company were tried at the last term together, and the jury disagreed. The second trial was set down for yesterday morning; but the company’s counsel stole a march on their opponents, and obtained, from Supreme Court Judge Pratt an order staying proceedings in all the cases pending in the City Court, and requiring the plaintiffs to show cause on Saturday why all the cases should not be trans- ferred to the New York Supreme Court for trial. These three cases were, therefore, adjourned from yesterday until Monday. Counsel for the company based their application for the order on a lengthy affidavit of President Jacob H. Vanderbilt, the principal points tn which are as follows:—There are now pending 141 actions against the company in various Courts, a bre of which are in the City Court of Brooklyn. One of the Judges of the City Court has been sick for over @ year, 80 that no General Term can be held to re- view the judgments recovered in that Court, and the defendant, unless relieved, will be compelled to incur the labor and expense of trying upward of twenty separate causes without, the possibility Gross; July, Judge Spaulding; August, Judge Tracy; | Of havi any of the judgments recovered reper Janes ara ih Jamey One| EMG Moly dour “havolecapen’ ee Ae Pea canadd Judge ‘Tracy; December, Judge | fe aant to try the cases as they came up, notwith- standing they (the defendants) agreed to stipulate thatirthe City Conrt woula stay the trial of the other actions pending therein until the final de- termination of the appeal from any one of the judg. ments which have been recovered inst It therein the defendants would carry such appeal to the Courtof Appeals with the utmost diligence, andincase the decision of the Court of Appeals should be adverse to the defendant on such atte it would make no further defence to any of sald actions except to require an assessment of damages in each case. This course on the part of the City Court has delayed cases on trial in other Courts, where an appeal could be taken and heard without delay. More than three-fourths of the witnesses in the cases resile outside of the county of Kings and are com- pelled to pass through New York on their way to the City Court. Captain Vanderbilt also alleged that whenever juries had disagreed on previous trials of Westfleld cases certain newspapers tn Brooklyn made such disagreements subjects of un- friendly criticism and published false reports con- cerning them. He was of the opinion, in view of all the facts and circumstances stated, that the company could not have a fair and im- partial trial in the Brooklyn City Cour! and that the ends of justice required the removal of all the cases to the New York Supreme Court, The names of the witnesses and a statement of what ho expects to prove by them are included in the amidavit. The argument on the company’s motion will be heard on Saturday next. Ex Judge Morris and Thomas F. Pearsall appear for the plaintiffs, and Messrs. Beach, Brown and Vanderpoel for the com- pany.

Jadge Bedford’s Charge to the Grand Jury in General Sessione—War Against Abortionists, Garroters and Thieves, Upon Judge Bedford's opening the Court of Gen- eral Sessions, Part 1, yesterday, the Grand Jury who were yesterday impanelicd for the June Term, Presented themselves and awaited the charge of is Honor preparatory to entering opon the bust- ness of the month. In view of the extraordinary iacrease of crime in this metropolis of late, which hae necessitated the passage by the Legislature of a statute granting the Recorder and Judge Bedford power to hold two sessions of this Court simultane- ousiy, and in view also ef the glaring necessity of dealing rigorously with that dangerous portion of the community who REVES, IN THE WORST DESCRIPTIONS OF OFFENCE, to the serious detriment and well-being of society, the following remarks of the Jearned Judge will be read with interest, and while meriting the sincere commendation of the right-minded citizen, will, no doubt, tend in no trifling degree to cause the criminal and would-be criminal to pause ere con- tinuing in or entering upon a course which is cer- tain, sooner or later, to end In severe punishment, JUDGE BEDFORD'S CHARGE.

Closing Up the Charch Legislation for the Next Four Years—Fixing the Conference Boundaries—Colored Delegates Asking for and Opposing Separate Conferences— Appointment of Fraternal Delegates to Corresponding Bodies—Miscellaneous, Bishop Ames presided yesterday, and after the religious and preliminary exercises, the matter of settling the Conference boundaries was taken up and a discussion arose onthe restoration of some territory taken from the Northwest Indiana Confe- ence four years ago and which that Conference dele- gation now demand. The report of the Committee on Boundaries which leaves the above Conference withont possession of the city of Indlanopolis, the point of dispute, was adopted. A similar fight took place between the Iowa and Des Moines Confer- ence delegations, the former demanding some ter- ritory from the latter. This demand was denied and the boundary was left as it is. The southern boundary of Kansas was fixed at the thirty-sixth parallel of latitude. When North Indiana Conference was defined, Dr. Goode offered an amendment to restore the boundary of that Con- ference to what it was previous to 1868, The amendment was voted down and the report adopted, The Philadelphia Conference, which on Monday had to give up Harrisburg, demanded a strip of territory including Beaver Meadow circuit as an offset. It was not granted. The boundaries of the other Conferences were either agreed to or remain unchanged. The committee asked that the Missouri and St. Louis Conferences be authorized to ORGANIZE A COLORED CONFERENCE between them if, in their jndgment, they should deem it advisable and the Bishop presiding shall concur. A resolution permitting the Georgia and Alabama Conferences to divide their colored and white ministers and people into separate Confer- ences called out the Rev. Mr. Lynch, a colored dele- gate from Mississippl, against making any such dis- tinction on the statute books of the Church or in the State or nation. He wanted his people to stand on equal footing in every respect with their white brethren. Rev. Mr. Murr, of Lexingten, Ky., a colored man, favored the separation of the two races or ele- ments into distinct Conferences as being for the ood of the colored people, who are pow persuaded by desiguing men that they are still under the white man. Mr. MrppLFTON, another colored delegate, op- josed the resolution. There should be no distinc- ion made between the two races. His people are Americans, they are Christians and Methodists; their own and thetr fathers’ blood has enriched our soil, and the argument made in favor of separating the colored from the white, because the former are ignorant and the latter cultivated, he deemed con- clusive against the separation. He therefore moved to lay the resolution on the table. It was so disposed of, amid the applause of the Conference. Oregon, Culifornia and Minnesota Conferences were authorized to divide their territory into two Conferences during the next four years, {f they shall deem it desirable, tne presiding bishop concurring. Part of Cakiornia, if divided, may be put into Ne- vada Conference. Aresoltition permitting the Providence Confer- ence to so divide certain portions of its territor, that all of the State of Connecticut now held by it shall ge into the New York East Conference, and certain other portions of Massachusetts to New England, was laid on the table. Another resolution, authorizing a STANDING COMMISSION ON CONFERENCE BOUNDA- RIES, toact during the interim of General Conference, was adopted. The report itself was adopted. Trustees were appointed for John street Metho- dist Episcopal church; a publishin, commit- tee for the Pittsburg Advocate was chosen; the California Branch Book Concern was changed to a book Depository. The Committee on Episcopacy reported Bishop Morris on the non-effective list; prenohers on trial were given the standing of tra- Yelling ministers, 80 as to make them amenable to ped rather than to Quarterly Conferences while on trial.

The bishops were allowed to vote in future for lay delegates, and all members of the Church not in the travelling ministry are classified as laymen, A report on common schools, which was adopted, pledges the Methodist Episcopal Church to resist yy every means sny attempt to exclude the Bible— the chart of our liberties and the guide ot our Christian civilization—from the common schools. Resolutions of thanks were given to the press and to iii other persons and associations for favors received. Miscellancous reports were read and adopted, The rol! was called. to ascertain who were present and whether a quorum or not. Present, 309—257 ministers, Dr, Watson, of the Methodist Episcopal Church South, was introduced. CLOSING RELIGIOUS EXERCISES, Bishop Janes sald a few parting words. The action of the Conference had been both conserva- tive and progressive, and would tend to the good and prosperity of the Church, The harmony and unity of action of the Conference the bishops con- sider as remarkable, and their stay here for 80 long a time as worthy of the commendation of the whole church, The older superintendents have taken to their hearts the new bishops, and thank God and the delegates for giving them such assistance. And the Bishop believed that the future of the Church would be as the past and much more abundant. Tle prayed God's blessing upon the delegates on their return home, and on their respective charges, families and friends. The closing exercises were then conducted by Bishop Simpson reading # portion of Scripture, the hymn, ‘Bilest be the Tie that Binds Our Hearts, &e., Was , prayer was offered by Rev. Dr. Curry, the “Doxology” was sung and the denedic- tion pronounced, after which the Methodist General Conference adjourned sine die, THE ALLEGED DISHONEST BROKER, Partial Examination of the Case Against Edward R. Mellivain. Examination in the case of Edward R. Mclivain, of the firm of E. T. Selsmer & Co., No. 11 Broad strect, who ts charged with having, on the 20th day of last month, obtained on a worthless check stocks of the Lake Shore Rallroad Company of the value of $9,580, from the firm of Geiston & Bussing, 38 Wall etrect, was commenced yesterday morning at the Tombs Police Court by Judge Hogan. From the evidence adduced it appears that Gelston & Bussing received an order from a Mr. Patterson, a broker, for 100 shares of the stock above mentioned, with instructions to turn the same over to E. T. Selsmer & Co., whe would pay for them. The stock was sent to the office of the last-inentioned firm, where it was received and a check drawn on the National Bank of the Republic tor the amount required, and signed by BF, T. Selsmer & Co. and endorsed by Mr, Mclivain, given for the same. On presenting the check the bank refused to honor it, as Selsmer & Co.'s deposits would not meet it. Mclivain in the Meantime disposed of the stock, and took the money which he realized for the same and de- pontes it to his own individual account in a Brook- yn bank. This is the substance of the testimony of the ary and the defence will be heard this morning. In the meantime the prisoner is re- manded, ‘PROBABLE MURDEE. A Boy’s Head Split Open With a Hatchet, On Monday night a fight took place between games Rose, of 161 East Twenty-eighth street, and James Burke, of 314 East Thirty-second atreet, ‘They are boys about sixteen years of age, and were playfellows before the present quarrel, the cause of which is not known, Rose, while the parties were quarre)iing, picked up a sngall hatchet and threw it at Burke, striking him on the forehead and sinkin the iron into his skull. Burke was at once remover to Bellevue Hospital, and the physicians in attend- ance there are now doing everything in their ower to save his life, A certificate sent by Dr. Kitchen yesterday to Justice Coulter, before whom Rose was taken by Oficer Callaghan, of the Twenty- first precinct, says that Burke isin a most critical condition, and it will be several days before a defi. nite opimon can be given ag to whether the wound will prove fatal or not. The young culprit was committed t await the result pf victim's in- Juries, THE TRINITARIAN QUAKER CONFERENCE, Fifth Day's Proceedings—Revising the Church Discipline—The Expenses of Itinerant Minis- tere—The Condition of the Church— ‘Money fer the Indians—Changing the Place of Convention—The Feast of the Righteous, The Conference of the “orthodox” Friends gath- ered at the usual hour yesterday morning in sep- Grate sessions, andthe attendance was unusually MORNING SESSION, ‘The meek-minded men—who, by the way, belie their poetical sobriquet of “the lords of creation” — sat in the hall in the basement of the church, while the women convened in the main oratory up stairs, In the assembly of the former some mild argument took place early in the session upon the subject of the proposed CHANGES IN THE CHURCH DISCIPLINE, which had been recommended in the minutes of the the Representative Committee. One of the most radical of these changes is one which authorizes ministers to draw on the subordinate Conferences to which they belong for the expenses of jour- neys made by them in preaching the Gospel, The proviso is made, however, that they must go forth with the full concurrence of the Conference; otherwise they ‘will not be considered as fully ordained to preach abroad, and ao can not have access to the Church’s pocket. Should the monthly conferences to which they belong be unable to furnish them with the necessary funds they are to appeal from them to the quarterly conferences, and if this resort fall, to the Yearly Meeting. The clause also provides that, if there be such necessity, their families shall be cared for in their absence. This sweeping change is @ wide departure from the primitive custom of the Society of Friends, and one which separates this branch farther than ever from the one styled the Hicksite. 1 THR EARLY PREACHERS, from Fox to Elias Hicks, were obliged tospend their own substance in the prosecution of their missions in the miuistry, ana tho care of their families was left only to the conscientious promptings of tho other members of the congregations. ‘This sort of injustice made all of the most prominent and able men of the Church very poor in eartnly goods, and made the performance of what they conceived to be their duty like tho wearing of “a crown of thorns.” The young generation which now has sway, in this, as in other things, seems bent upon fe coatin the pathway to “the reward of the right- cotta) roader and easier than it was for their an- cestors. After a deal of discussion the subject was referred toa easy committee of forty men and women for consideration. Next came a proposition to revise all of the dis- ciplinary queries, which also occasioned much de- ato; and it was finally given into the charge of the same committee. THE CONFERENCE OF 1873. The proposition that when the Conference ad- journ it adjourn to meet at Rochester in 1873 was then received and approved. : REVIVALS, The “general meetings” which were held during the past year throughout the country were next discussed, and it was finally ordered by the Con- ference that they be continued and the proper pro- vision be made, MONEY FOR THP RED MEN. The Conference has also, since the adoption of the report of the Indian Committee, ordered the appropriation of $2,000 as its quota to the general fund of the Yearly Meetings for the education and civilization of the tribes on the Western reserva- ons. The Conference adjourned its morning session at about one o'clock, and all of its members then par - took of bodily sustenance in the refectory. 19 curtons fact is that, despite the welghtiness of the question under consideration, the ministers and elders seldom permit spiritual affairs to dull the warnings of aupe lite, and they all seem to apprect- ate good beefsteak and mutton chops as well as if they were dressed in a more worldly eet and did not affect the old Saxon style of speech, This FEAST OF THE RIGHTEOUS is “a sight for gods and men.” Ranged along the whitely-spread tables sit the matrons and patri- archs in opposite rows, and the young men and maidens, not without some sly firtation, perform the office of servitors, ing boiling cups of tea hither and thither, which frequently, we regret to remark, in the bestowal of bright nces and blushing smiles, they spill all over their dainty at- tire, or over that of some staid and decorous per- sonages, whose seriousness is thus scandalized. White arms are unsuspiciously displayed, and we will not undertake to say that some hearts even of old and white-haired elders are not partly broken. . Afternoon Session. ‘The afternoon hour was consumed in the consider- ation of the State of the Church. Reports were re- ceived from all the suberdinate conferences, and from them it appeared that the progress of the de- — was quite considerable In numbers and eal. The women approved the proposed ad‘ournment of the Conference to Rochester, and also the ger to ment of the committee on the revision of the dis- cipline, half of which was selected from their dele- ates. It held a secret session in the afternoon and is expected to report on Wednesday or Thursday. On the latter day the Conference will probably close its business. ‘To-morrow, at half-past ten o’clock, there are to be public services, at which there will undoubtedly be some impressive preaching, BROOKLYN AFFAIRS, The Brooklyn Board of Estimate, The Board of Estimate will meet on Thursday next and receive the estimates from the heads of the different departments of the amount required by them for the ensuing year. The estimated ex- penses of the Police Departincut for 1873 is $676,850, an increase of $158,000. A Brooklyn Jewelry Store Broken Into. The jewelry store of John D, Chase & Son, 392 Fulton street, was entered by burglars yesterday morning. They forced open a back window and then proceeded to blow open the safe with powder. The noise of the exp'osion, however, attracted the attention of OMicer Chambers, of the First precinct, pet od foe Lb ney were discovered, fled, leaving behind them @ can of payder, crowbar, sov- eral chisels anda dark lantern i How Brooklyn Convicts Escape Justice. For a long time past it wasa matter of “town talk” in Brooklyn that prisoners who were sen- tenced to imprisonment by Justices in the lower Courts on one day were seen strolling through the public streets or visiting their usual haunts on the following day, and the inference drawn was that the committing magistrate was blamable. The matter, however, was fully ven- tiated fame forenoon in Justice Elliott's Court, iilamsburg. The driver of the prison van, or “Black Maria,” John Connolly, was charged with the offence of allowing prisoners to escape while taking them to prison for a consideration. The complainant in the case was H. C. Conrady, a keeper {n the county jatl, Connolly pleaded not guilty to the grave bl preferred against him and asked for an immediate examination. This be- ing granted. it was clearly proven that on the 28th of May John Wittenauf, a prisoner in his charge, pald him $8 50 for his release while on the way to prison. Justice Eliiott thereupon committed Con- Rolly to the county jail to await the action of the Grand Jury, and he was sent down there in the same vehicle in which he had so often conveyed other unfortunates to Court ana prison, Police=Appointments of Capiains and Sergeants. The Brooklyn Police Commissioners met yester- day at the Police Headquarters, corner of Court and Livingston streets, Brooklyn, and made the follow- ing appointment: First precinct, Captain Smith; Second precinct, Captain McConnell; Third pre- einct, Captain Ferry; Fourth precinct, Captain Waddy ; Fifth precinct, Captain wWogiom : uxt pre. cinet, Captain Mullen; Seventh precinct, no ap. ointment; Eighth precinct, Captain Mackelicr inth precinet, Captain McLaugilin; Tenth pre- cnet, no appointment. ‘The Police Surgeons are Drs.
