' STOKES. ‘Tostimony of Stokes’ Captor-—-“And You Are the Man That Shot Him.” THE DEATH SCENE. Close of the Medical Testimony and of the Case for the Prosecution. Mrs. Hooker, Fisk’s Sister, ¥ on the Stand. ‘Opening for the Defence---Ar- gument of Counsel. Did Fisk First Draw a Pistol Upon Stokes? Wew and Interesting Developments Promised in the Testimony for the Prisoner. The Trial Adjourned Till To-Mor- row, at Half-past Ten. TWELFTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS. . spectators in the densely packed, hot court Toom of the Oyer and Terminer were yesterday ‘again regaled with the usual quantity of testimony in the cage of the trial of Edward 8. Stokes for the ‘ailing of James Fisk, Jr. ‘Stokes and bts father, mother and bi were in court, altting together, and the Diauee Ptorsen with Messrs, McKeon, Tromain, Towngend sud Dailey for the prisoner. Mr. Beach Mr. Fal- lerton, private counsel «for ee were also in Court and sat in the self-same immovable positions that they have occupied for two weeks past, watching the witnesses with stony-oyed pre- cision. The Court was as hot as an oven, And the jury had a melting air of resignation, Still, every one m the room felt that something out of the usual @ourse of procedure must take place, and conse- quently for eight long hours, with en interval of half an hour for recess, the spectators, Judge and Jory sat the trial out, with patient hopefalness that @ sensation would be given them, and they were Bot disappointed, ‘The first witness examined wag Dr. E. T. T. Marsh, ® young blonde-haired gentleman, who acts as de- puty to Coroner Young, and was present at the post-mortem examination. There was nothing im- Portant in this man’s testimony, as the substance fit haabeen repeated over and over again in the evidence given previously by medical men. Following Marsh came Patrick McGowan, who is ‘the engineer of the Grand Central Hotel. McGowan arrested or helped to arrest Stokes as’ he came down to the firat floor. He testified that Stokes did not angwer when the question was asked him, “Why djd you shoot him?” Also that @ome unknown man came and spoke to Stokes while he was in ¢he hall, a policeman having been sent for, and fe}¢ all over the breast of Stokes’ coat and asked Stokes if “ho was hurt; to which Stokes answered that he was not, when the strange Man excused himself. On cross-examination by Mr. Tremain for the defence the witness became befogged and contradicted himself repeatedly as to ‘what he sald at the Coroner’s inquest, in much the same manner that many of the witnesses have done who have been examined by the District At- ‘tofney for the prosecution. Mr. Henry Powers, the proprietor of the Grand Central Hotel, was called several times, but, Strange to say, he failed to appear, and was not compelled to come into Court. Dr. Frank Willis Fisher, who attended Fisk from the time that he ‘was shot until he died, was next-examined. his gentleman came like a lamb te Wé Slaughter, and ‘was used mercilessly »y the counsel, Mr. Townsend, 4m his searching cross-examination. The same fate wefell him that descended on his colleague, Dr. Tripler, on the preceding day. He was obadgered, confused and canfounded, and, after being an hour and five min- utes under fire, Judge Ingraham mercifully came to his resoue by adjourning the Court at the early hour of one o'clock for the recess. Dr. Fisher went ut to lunch with Dr. Tripler and came back after Tevess. ‘Do you wish to examine the witness any farther?” asked Judge Ingraham, dnd Mr. Town- send replied, ‘Yes, Iwill take another hour of him,” at which all the people in the Court laughéa: The question wasasked of Dr. Fisher if he had mot stated to a second person that an im- Proper act had taken place between Mrs. Morse or her daughter and Colonel Fisk, as he laid, ‘wounded, on the bed in room 218% This question caused considerable sensation in Court, but was ruled out by the Judgo, and prurient curiosity must remain unsatisfied in regard to this matter perhaps forever. He admitted that ho threatened the haliman Henry, who could not identify the pistol.on the trial, and sald to him during the last twenéy-four hours that “he was a damned fool, and that he would go to Sing Sing Prison if two or three witnesses could be found to contradict Nim.” The audience looked at the witness and laughed at his admission, which made Dr. Fisher feel unhappy. He made some other admissiona, which were equally discreditable and had their effect. on the jury, who listened in- tently. Dr. Fisher had kept a diary of the condi- tion of Fisk on the night of his shooting and up to tho hour of his death, and he read from his notes slowly and with considerable eifect, but all at once he was stopped and his dream of happiness was Fadely broken by the interference of Tremain and Townsend, who demanded his notes, on the ground that ho had no right to refresh his memory from private memoranda. He re- pes Gig d handed over his notes to Tremain, and by him they were handed to Dr. medical Se who ts engi eal [By at hn ue defence. Fisher, when his Totes were taken away, became attpetied by every succeeding question, an it was proven by his own word that the notes were 8 of the original taken by another person. t the conclusion of Dr. .Fisher’s testimon: eete, of the Grand Central, was again called, bul did not appear. Then the District Attorney cailed in aloud voice, “Minna G, Hooker!" looked around to see who she was.

His birth, hig bovbood and his manhood were sketched with ébigrammatic terseness. McKeon arraigned the deceased man before the bar of pub- lic opinion, He depicted his disregard of ubiic morality, of public honesty; his defiance of all laws, both human and divine, and spoke of his disre; and contempt of public oie except when wished to use that pur- chasable commodity. He admitted Fisk’s ene! and industry, and pitied him that he had not his talents to the advan: of the pabiie good, Then in turn Mr. McKeon denot and ar- raigned Fisk as the greatest curse America had ever known. He compared him to Cagliostro and Casanova. He had debauched the sentiment of the People, | eee eae public iaaiee, corru) e ju and tad made the gran old words, “American honor .and fair & 1? bywords of contempt and scorn in all countries, ..asociated ‘with one of the most villanous political the world had ever seen, he threatened erty of citizens with imyunty. law and defied its wisest enactments, ed the jclary. he could not buy his life was interfere with 5 OF if he does our touch is cold and clammy,” Fisk, and another of his sayings was:—'We have private grave is for our enemies.” Mr. McKeon told the terrible story of Black.

He described here the wound as it had previously been described. Q. What was the cause of death? A, Death was caused by the wound in the abdomen, and imme- diately by the shock to the nervous system; when I first saw the wound I was impressed that it. was mortal; Increase of the pulse would indicate reac- tion, decrease collapse; increase of respiration would denote reaction; the sensibility of the pupil would indicate an absence of congestion and of any Mr. McKeon took the counsel for the prosecution by surprise admitting the shooting of Fisk by gi but claimed that it was done out pre- meditation and while in iniminent fear Satie Sor beets of nee wile tel, was down the ladies’ staircase. in gf eae rial the fi on. the impulse of the moment Ten ances. to protect ‘Minott from death. Stokes’ movements were accounted for until five or ten minutes before the shooting in a way that astonished the District Attorney, who expected an entirely different line of defence, and Mr. McKeon said that they had kept their defence to themselves to prevent Perjure witnesses from swearing away the life of Stokes. Mr. McKeon sat down, after three hours of the most finished and forcible defence, amid murmurs of applause. THE TWELFTH DAY'S PROCEEDINGS. The twelfth day of the trial of Edward 8, Stokes for the killing of James Fisk, dr., was brought toa close yesterday after a protracted session. The prosecution closed its case and Mr. McKeon epened the case for the prisoner in an able and exhaustive argument, which took three hours in its delivery. At its close the Court adjourned till to-morrow morning at the usual hour, the jury being allowed to go to their homes till then, EXAMINATION OF DOCTOR MARSH. Dr. Edward T.T. Marsh was the first witness called, Examined by District Attorney Garvin—I made the post-mortem examination of Colonel Fisk’ with the aid of Dr. Janeway; I found a wound on the abdomen; I introduced a probe to find its direction; the wound was circular in its. op earences I traced the course of the ball; it lodged in the muscles of the left thigh; it res through two links of the small intestines— he colon, the omentum and wh ett it was four and half inches from the wound fo its en- | ober into the cavity; it was twenty-two inches m the entrance to where I found the ball; the wound on the inner of the left arm, was oval, about halfan inch length and a quarter of an inch in width, and a similar wound on the outside: I passed a probe omy the point of entrance in- side was about an inch above the elbow, the exit ouside five inches above the elbow, as if he had had his arm up when shot; his brain was large, WEIGHING FIFTY-EIGHT OUNCES} his heart large, about sixteen ounces in weight; his liver was fatty, but only slightly; there was some peritonitis, OROBS-EXAMINED, To Mr. Townsend—I saw Colonel Fisk on the even- ing of the 6th to take his ante-mortem deposi- tion; Iconcluded he died from shock, from the absence of other disease; I found in nis arm two connecting wounds. Q. What do you judge from, that the ball entered on the inside? A. The es of the inside wound were inverted, of the outside wound everted; that is what I judged from; I could not be certain of the fact; Imade_at the time of the inquest a memo- randum; I don’t know whether can find that Memorandum; but lam not likely to forget such matters ; 1 will look for it, To Mr. McKeon—I read from a written statement at ‘on Ds re Lepr Seat Paper a here. . ‘ou take a statement the night after Seair from Thomas Hart?

A. Clear down to the curb stone; you can see the whole body of a person standing on the platform; stand- ing within two feet of the back wall of the ball you can see the street, but not the platform; you can seo, the head of @ man standing on the plat- form; when I first saw Stokes he was just coming down stairs; he said, “There's a man shot—go for the doctor ;’’ Thomas Hart, following, said, “YOU'RE THE MAN THAT SHOT HIM}? fee him to the exchange, where Ystoppea CROSS-EXAMINED. To Mr. Tremain—I was sworn at the Coroner's in- juest; I may have said that the boy said, ‘“There’s he man who shot him; Iam in the employ of Mr, Powers now; I have talked with one person about this, Peter Coughlin. (Mr. Tremain here read from his testimony on the Coroner's inquest Ibelieve that 1s correct; I was not with him long; Mr. Powers asked him “wiHy HE stor HIM,” and Mr. Stokes made no reply. Q yy did you not state that to the Coroner's jury? A. I supposed I had; when I went down to the engine room Mr. Stokes was sitting on a bench; standing at the head of these stairs one could sce the wheels of carriages; in winter the outer door is closed; there is a light over the door; I am notsure whether there are two sets of doors; I don’t think there are; Iam not positive; the prisoner looked bewildered like; he was pale; he made no resist- ance; the seat where he sat down was the porter’s bench, at the foot of the main stairs; there is a long hall Jeading right back; you pass the elevator into the reading room, and the barber's shop is back of that; Mr, Stokes said, “There's a man shot,” to Mr. Powers; Mr. Powers then said, ‘Here, here, here!” nothirg was said to him hefore he spoke; T saw an officer there; some gentlemen came to the prisoner and asked him if he was hurt, and felt his breast; he said “No.” To Mr. Garvin—I did look this morning to sce whether I could see the sidewalk from the head of the stairs, To Mr. Tremain—I made the examination with Mr. pene Powers, the cashier of the hotel; he sug gested it DR FISHER EXAMINED, Dr. Willis Fisher was then sworn and testified—I have been living at the Grand Central Hotel eighteen months; the first I knew of this affair I reached the hote] between ten and fifteen minutes of tive; I heard Colonel Fisk was shot, and went to my room, where I got a mest to go to room 214; 1 went there and found severa) persons there, two or three of whom I did not know, Henry Powers and Dr. Tripler; 1 to the olonel; ¥ said, “Colonel, I am sorry e you in this condition,” his respiration was so very weak; 1 ounces of brandy in water an water compress to the abdominal wi Tequested the persons not connected with the c to retire from the room; these memoranda I have were made that evening; at 5 P, M. he seemed more comfortable, but pain bowels; at half-past five he ea his respiration ite ulse 74; } as ed an ; his pupil were dilated; at about a quarter tosix Dr: Wood came in and examined him; under his direc- tion [ admInistered @ small amount of chloroform there was no indication of the locality of the Dall} aed @ ‘consultution was held; If insted about alf an hoar; it was not in presence of Mr. Fisk; the course of treatment dee! led on was carried out; at 7 o'clock, he was very uneasy and complained ot Pain in his jarter of a grain of morphia els; @ qui waa administered ‘in Wagenaters solution; he com- pieined of pain snd for more morphia; he “) AM 06 Btrong.as ano, and Jt took four timen as much injurious etfect of opiates, CROSS-EX AMINED, To Mr. Townsend—Collapse I consider complet prostration of the brain; shock ts an instantaneous disturbance ofthe nervous system; the pu often not contracted in shock; a shock often dilates the eye; the lignt was in the centre of the room; zien Texamined the eye I was looking cown on im. Q. After giving the opiates what effect on the eye did you notice? A, They seemed to have little eifect; I noticed onee or twice a slight contraction; Thave not said that Colonel Fisk was a friend 0! mine; when I went in Dr. Tripler was in the rooms when I came into the room Mr. Fisk stretched ou! his hand; there were no iadies there; 1 was pres- ent when Colonel Fisk’s will was made; there was no conversation between Colonel Fisk and @ lady while I was present; I don’t remember when he made his will exactly; he had made it before Dr. Sayre arrived; no one had told Dr. Sayre he had already made his will; Dr. Sayre re- mained but a very few minutes; I heard him make some remarks about a will; I could tell whether his pupils contracted by exposing them to the light; on one occasion I took a candle; these memoranda are fair copies of my original memo- randa; those were. shown at the meeting; I do not know what has become of them; this copy was made by @ Dr. Bowman; the first intimation I had of the first meeting was a message by Dr. Sayre’s son that his father was sick; I supposed he wished my attendance as a physician; 1 am not aware that I skipped anything in my statement except the pergonal part, wiiich I was instructed to leave out; what you have thére is sume pages of a histor, ot unshot wounds to be hereafter published; Dr. ‘ipler administered four doses of morphia; I think Tadministered myself a grain in all; 1 think in all I gave him eight or ten ounces of brandy. Q. The general effect of shock is to a certain ex- tent paralysis, is it not? A. Not invariably; it is @ depression of the nervous bigete which is not the same thing as paralysis; I saw Colonel Fisk about ten minutes of five; he merely pressed my hand; he did not shake it; when I first went in no one was talki to him; a person may receive a shock and an injury and not be aware of it for some minutes; Colonel Fisk was a man of strong physical oe and unusual vitality; the evidence of shock was his general appearance, cir- culation and respiration; a shock may arise from accident or from moral impressions. Q. If Dr. Tripier fouad the pulse barely percepti- ble, and you founa it at seventy-six, woud not that indicate reaction? A. Somewhat, sir; I think there was a decided change about one o'clock; I made the memoranda from which this is taken the night of the affair. ~ Mr. Tremain claimed that the witness had no right to look at this memorandum, it not being an original memorandum, and the witness was directed to lay it aside, At that time his pupils were contractile, not con- ass morphine been given before the rising of the Q. Without knowing the constitution of the man, could you tell that morphine would raise the pulse? A. I consider that it was raised by the beneficial action of the opiate; I could only tell by watching the symptoms; the morphine would raise the pulse somewhat, ae to 80; half a grain would kill some men, and I have known seventy-five grains given in one case. Q. How do you know whether the change came from the reaction or the morphine? A. I'vom the general condition of the patient, the fulness of the pulse, the condition of the pulse and frequency of the respiration; I have no other answer to give. ‘The Court here took a recess. After the Recess. On the reassembling of the Court the cross-ex- amination of Dr. Fisher was proceeded with. Q. When was the will drawn? A. I did not make any particular note; between seven and nine o'clock; I_ was a subscribing witness; Dr. Tripler, Mr. D. D. Field, Mr. Sherman, Mr. Gould and Mr. Tweed were present; no others were present that I knew; there were net more than one or two oth- ers present. Q. Those ladies you saw in the outside room, who were they? A. Mrs. Morse and her daughter; I . don’t think they spoke to Fisk before he made his wiil; J know young Mr. Morse, but I am not able to state whether he was in the room. AFTER THE WILL, Q. How long did the People you have spoken of remain after the will was drawn? A, I think they all retired from the room where Fisk was soon after the Senin of the will except Dr. Tripler and my- self; Mr. reed and Mr. Gould might have been Gel after; one or both was there, but I can’t say which, Q Did you have any conversation with Mrs. or Miss Morse any time that evening? A. I think I had a conversation with Mrs. Morse about eleven o'clock that evening; 1 saw her in the hallway. HOw, many times was the wound probed that night? A. Twice; by Dr. Tripler and by Dr. Wood. Q. Did not Dr. White also probe the wound? A. I don’t think the probe was withdrawn after Dr. Wood putitin unttl Dr. White had examined the wound. Q. How long were pe absent leaving Dr. Tripler alone in the room? A. Once or twice; I could not say how long Dr. Tripler left me alone with the pa- tient—probabiy half an hour; we were there until getting on for four o'clock; Br. Tripler might have gone out three or four times, but only for a few minutes at a time. BRANDY, OPIUM AND SHOCK, Q. Would not two ounces of brandy increase the uise? A. It would depend on the antecedents and habits and constitution of the patient; I should Judge the effect by the result. But when you have opium, shock and brandy, how would you distinguish? A. Opium would end in delirium if the dose were excessive; brandy would give more vigor and tone to the system; shock would also increase the pulse. Q. Have not you talked with some doctor since ‘ou left the stand about this case? A. Not particu- larly; I went to lunch with Dr. Tripler. Q. When did the patient’s breath become sterto- | rous? A. About two hours before death, Q. Did you threaten Henry, the parlor man at the Grand ventral, this morning, that he would be sent to Sing Sing for perjury? A. I only said it asa joke, knowing that he was a nervous, seusitive man. THE DOCTORS A UNIT. Q. Did you not make a remark to us that there ‘Would be no use in cross-examining the doctors, as they were a unit as to the evidence? A. I said that the doctors were unanimous in their opinion as to the cause of death; I may have used the word unit, but I meant unantmous, Q. Did you not speak to me first? A. I told you that I underst you had paid some physicians Enact $1,000 to suggest the course of cross-exam- ion, Q. What occurred between Fisk and any female member of the Morse family that evening of an um- proper nature? A, Nothing that I know of. Q. Did you not state to Mr. Dailey, on the parlor floor of the Grand Central Hotel, within @ month of the occurrence, that you could relate things about ‘Fisk and a femble member of the Morse family that agua that were perfectly disgracefil? No, FISK'S SISTER, Mrs. Minna E, Hooker, 'sworn:—I reside in New York; was ater of the deceased; our father’s name wa mes Fisk; I was onily a half sister of Be Ae aa 5 the name of the deceased was James Tr. Mr. McKeon then asked the Court to adjourn be- fore carlin on the defence to open their case; but the request was refused, as His Honor said there had been a time wasted already, greas deal of and he did not feel justified in longer delaying the HB OPENING YOR THE DEFENOR, Mr. McKean then delivered an exhaustive addreas of two hourd and: three-quarters, He an by briefly stating the degrees of murder, and ihen | it was by the District A' for hat allowed private couse! to avin the case ig A rt of rosecution, Such a course, he , was wholly without precedent, and the only reason it had been allowed was because Mr. viox, though dead, was still pig surviving his Begg thus sacrificed for mere money. ne eee EN x - ao ane it Ba a predent case aid nol beileVe hat ths preatal troller would allow such expenses, 6 two ntiemen to whom he referred had received 3,000 in money from his client, and at the present time there was peuding a suit by William Fullerton against E, 8, Stokes for $5,000, 'This case was a great public gasp in some of its aspects, He was not one of those who under- rated the abilities of Mr. Fisk. He was aman who leit an impress of bimself upon the times in which he lived. It was an extraordini thing that we found something like him in the last century.

Once in possession of the Erie road he had allied himself with a corrupt political ring, which con- trolled the judiciary. Inthe gold panic Mr. Fisk became alarmed at the violence of some of the peo- ple he had robbed, and from that time had con- pea gone about armed, He had by that time or ed murders againet other people, and he knew that the same means of mischief might be employed against himeelf. THE ERIE BRIGANDS. Mr. McKeon then proceeded to review the his- tory of the operations of the Erie Ring at great length, showing that Fisk kept of braves and imtrenched himself as the leader of a gang of bri- nda in the heart of the city of New York. He id the story of Dorman B, Eaton, and olaimed that that gentleman had been assaulted and left for dead by Fiek’s bullies. That would be shown b; the prosecution, as well as that Stokes was tol that’ he would be treated in the same way. He was the: first man that he (Mr. McKeon) had ever feared, and had told him in open court that ‘“he was the most dangerous man in the city of New York, and that if any man opposed him he did so at the risk of his life.” It would be shown by the prosecution that Stokes was so apprehensive of attack that he had never gone out during last November except in company With a friend, and at night always in a carriage, Fisk had told him that “hia touch was cold and clammy,” and that none could oppose him with impunity, and that he and his political as- sociates ruled the city of New York with a rod of fron, and with a firmer hand than Robespierre had ruled the people of France. THE OIL RRFINERY. After this introduction Mr. McKeon gave in detail the particulars of Stokes’ early transactions with Fisk. In July, 1869, Stokes, who. had previously gone into artnership with farley, Fisk's agent, in the oll refinery business, under the name of the Brooklyn Oil Kefining Company, on the understand. ing that the latter was to get the ofl over the Erie Haliroa PORE ay ota ede pe whl. at ratoga, a telegram from his partner saying Fisk wanted to see himimmediately. Fisk pro @ system of drawbacks, by which Stokesshould each montti presont 2 claim on the railroad for 65 cent @ gallon on all the oi] that hadbeen carried. This opened the path to immense profits—about one hundred thousand dollars a year, which was all taken out of the railroad company. Soon after Fisk proposed to enlarge their operations by forming a stock company, with a capital of $100,000, Harley held 450 shares, Byers (another tool of Fisk's) 250, and Stokes 300, Atter this Stokes, holding a minor- ity of the stock, was wholly in Visk’s power. MANSFIELD DISGUSTED WITH FISK, During the winter of 1869 and 1870 Miss Mansfield became disgusted with Fisk. She turned him away and would have pee | todo with him, 1t was enough to’ know that Fisk had a wife living in Bos- top. For that and another reason that {t was un- neceesary to indicate she left him, and_ her health required that she should leave him and drive him away from her, -She remained away from him for “some time; but Fisk wae so infatuated with her that he begged of her to take him back, and witha woman’s weakness she did at last consent to do so, STOKES AND JOSIB, Stokes had been first introduced to Josie by Har- ley, Fisk’s agent, an’ had called on her for the first tineon New Year’s Day, 1870, Fisk had seen-him and had asked him todine there that day, and some of the most prominent officials of the city and State were present at the banquet. After he had called on Miss Mansfield some time Fisk's suspicions were aroused, and, making up his mind that something was wrong, he ordered Harley to withdraw the arrangement about drawbacks. The consequence was that Stokes’ business was paralyzed. Stokes was then on his knees to Fisk, and asked Fisk to see him at Delmonico’s, Fisk returned that he would see him that GES at Miss Mansfield’s, and saw that lady in the par! that afternoon—for he was not then living with her—and obtained her permission to use her house; and, with all her faults, it should be said that that aay has @ fund of good sense and intelligence for which she ought to have credit, and she talks frankly what she knows, whether it tells for or against her. MORE ABOUT THE OIL BUSINESS, At this mecting it was arranged that Fisk should 8e)] out to Stokes for $70,000, k Raid he had got into trouble with Mr. Tweed about this matter. Mr. Tweed had found out that it was a good opera- tion, ‘and had come up, “with blood in meh de- manding his share of the rake.” It was on this oc- casion that Fisk’ told “Stokes tliat “his touch was cold and clamgny,’’ and that he had previously made arrangements to “railroad him (Stokes) into. the Stafé Prison.” Fisk also asked Stokes to take certain amount of stock in place of money, and ordered Harley to give an ordes..gn Byers for the amount. The next morning Byers would not cash it, and Harley kept out of the hg This was be- cause Fisk wanted to operate on Stokes; and he said to him, ‘I want you to get back the affections of Miss Mansfleld to me.”” okes replied, I have no control over that; I will have nothing to do with it; it is not my line.’ Fisk then retured to fulfil his engagement, and everything was again at sea. THE TRAGEDY DEEPENING. From October, 1870, Fisk vowed vengeance against Stokes, and he threatened that he would take Stokes’ life, Fisk had men to follow him night and day, and he never felt that he was safe, and the poor fellow was 80 anxious to have the matter settled that his mind became disturbed. He also took advice of Mr. Beach as to what should be done. Mr. Beach told him to wait until January 7, 1871, when the lease granted by his mother of the property in Brooklyn required certain things to be done, and that if they should not be done Mrs. Stokes should take possession of her property, The lease not being carried out Stokes and bis mother went over and took quiet possession of the prop- erty, but were turned out by a Fang. of twenty-five” or thirty men sent by-Fisk for the purpose. STOKES ABRESTED. Fisk then obtained an injunction from Judge Pratt, appointing Harley, Fisk’s agent, reociver, and prohibiting Mrs. Stokes from taking legal pro- ceedings to recover her property. en he had Stokes arrested, on a warrant of Judge Dowling’s, on an accusation of having embezzled $20,000, and he was kept.in jail allSunday and Sunday night. The ground of the charge was that Stokes, having found that Byers, -the treasurer, was ye tiaet moneys in his own name,.did the same, and did deposit $30,000 of the Company’s money in his name. The end of this was that Fisk allowed him to keep the $30,000 he had and gave him another $30,000 for set- tiement. ANOTHER ABORTIVE SETTLEMENT, Stokes then began a suit for $200,000 for injury sustained by the breaking up of the business. The end of that was another settlement, Mr, Fisk agree- ing to give $200,000 for the property—$50,000 down and the remainder in instalments. Papers for this arrangement were made out, when it was represented to Stokes that this would look as though he had been blackmailing Fisk, and that it would be better to have it settled by arbitration by @ gentleman of cimractér, like Mr. Seward, who would probably, too; give him agi her award. Stokes agreed; and Mr. Seward, one of the counsel of the Erie Railroad, was selected, and Mr. Fullerton acted as counsel for Stokes. ‘The result of the arbi- tration was that Mr. Seward reported $10,000 in favor of Stokes,. Stokes told Fisk that he would ac- cept the $10,000, but protested against the settle- ment. He then commenced a sutt'to set aside the award, on the ground that certain things had not been passed upon by Mr. Seward, and that the award was for the Incarceration alone. OPEN WAR. Open war was now declared, and rumors got abroad that afidavits would be produced in the sult that would bring disgrace and odium upon Fisk. The only way Pisk succeeded in getting out of Mgrs on injunction from Judge Pratt restraiuing the publication of these papers. At the same time Richard King, @ former servant of Mansfield’s and a willing tool, was made use of to make an aftidavit that he had overheard Stokes and Mansfeld arranging to blackmail Fisk. King was directly afterwards sent away out of the State to avoid his perfury being exposed. ROUGH ON THE DISTRICT ATTORNEY. Mr. McKeon then charged that the District Attor- ney had supptessed some of the evidence on the part of the prosecution, Where was Miss Morse, who, if produced, would be forced to prove that Fisk was armed? The court, too, had been filled with the detectives of the private Counsel who had acted in this case. The Districe Attorney should simply seek to bring out the whole truth, and the caso had been conducted ag if it were a struggle victory. The public authorities were informed that Mr. Fisk was armed, The Coroner knew he was armed. The clothes had been in the possession of Mrs. Fisk since last January, not in public harids, -And look at the way things had been conducted in the hotel! »Why had not the rosecution produced Mr. Powers, of the Grand Ventral Hotel? The defence had been stopped in thelr examination, or they would have taken the roof off that hotel, and shown the true character of what had gone om there, 188 MANSFTEU.D'S SUIT. To go back to the lawsuit between Stokes and Fisk, the next step was the suit-for libel brooms by Miss Mansfield betore Judge Bixby against Kk. Jud; Bixby had treated’Fisk iets like any other person, and bad held him in sufficient, bail, Why had not the District Attorney allowed Stokes at ‘that time go before the Grand Jury and have certain per- m4 indicted at that time? While Stokes was try- ing to get before the Grand Jury the District Attor- ney’s oltice, at the instance of risk, were preparin; HD jndichment against Stokes on @ charge Of black. _ , THURSDAY, JULY 4, 1872—WITH SUPPLEMENT. Now they come to a where he would be still more careful in bis statements. ey would observe how this man had been res and driven and was at the mercy of Mr. Fisk. The it time before the 6th of January that Stokes saw isk was on the Isth of December, 1871, at the “Black Crook” exhibition, On the 6th of Jannary ae Menataiae cage came up at Judge Bixhy’s | ir ie . A WARNED BY FELLOWS. Stokes was a witness, and in reply to Mr. Beach said tnat he had never had any intention of per- sonal violence cearae Fisk, and that he simply leit his rights in the hands of the law. The Court adjourned at two o'clock, and coming home in a coupé, Mr. Fellows suggested that the pou between Fisk and Stokes should arranged by Stokes ‘withdrawing — the Mansfeld case. Mr. Fellows suggested that this had better be done, as Fisk would probably otherwise have Stokes indicted for blackmail. Stokes replied that he had done nothing to serve ag a ground for such an indictment. The coupé stop at Delmonico’s, down town, and Stokes then leit for Rufus F, Andrews’ office. THR INDICTMENT. Mr. McKeon left also, andas he came out he heard it remarked that there was an indictment returned against Stokes. He saw the Presiding Judge at tho Oyer and Terminer in the room and thought the news might have leaked out through him. Ho, therefore, came ever to Mr. Spark: e Clerk, but he knew nothing of any such indictment havin; been returned. On reaching Mr. Andrews’ office Stokes asked about the indictment which Mr. Fellows had hinted at. Stokes explained.that he wished to go to Providence, and Andrews as- sured him that there was Boehing of the kind ont against him. He also called on Mr. Bixby in War- ren street, who told him the same thing. At’ the corner of Warren street he took a hack i 90 *P town and make his arrangements to Fa \- dence. The press had stated that Stokes ‘had fol- lowed Fisk from the Opera House down town, a statement utterly untrue, The hack was ordered to drive to the Hoffman House, AT THE HOFFMAN HOUSE. Stokes went to his room, Got some papers, and while he was at the office saw In his box a returned telegram to John 8. Doty, at Eatontown. It waa very important that he should see Doty about his disput bet with Henry N. Smith, and he asked what time the boat left. entleman said at four o'clock and that he would haye just time enough to catch it. Stokes sald “No, as he had to to Twenty-third street and get some papers.” It was found, however, that the telegram had been returned in consequence of its being directed to Eatonville, instead of to Eaton- town, and Stokes therefore contented himself with telegraphing again, and Mr. Doty had the telegram stil in his possession, Getting into the hack Stokes told the driver to drive to Miss Manfleld’s; but seeing the blinds all down, and knowing that Miss Mansfield was sick, he determined not to trouble her for the papers he had come for. TO THE HOTEL, He therefore told the cabman to drive to the Grand Central Hotel, with the idea of getting to the corner of Amity street, where there was a house frequented by sporting men, and where he thought it probable that he would find some witnesses use- ful to him in the matter of the bet, which was to be decided the following ‘Tuesday. The cabman went up Twenty-third street to Seventh avenue down Seventh avenue to Fourteenth strect, and thence through Fourtcenth street and: Broadway, 4nd when they got near the hotel Stokes tapped with his cane on the window and the cg)man stopped, The cabman would swoar that Stokes gave him no directions as to following any other sane and that the route was left entirely to him- se] TEN MINUTRS BEFORE THE SI0OTING. Stokes, on leaving the cab, went up, not down Broadway, and entered Chambers & Dodge's, a house where he thought he might se some gentle- men who would serve as witnesses. There were im that bees) young Mr. Ingraham, Mr. Polhemus, Mr, Smith and others, Mr, Ingraham asked him to go up town, but Stokes said he must get the witnesses he wanteland could notgo. Te started up town on the east side of Broadway, when gentleman got out of @ stage and sald, “Ned, what are you doing here? Let us go down and get some tickets for the ‘Black Crook,’’? which was thon very crowded, They strolled along, and on coming to the Grand Central Hotel Stokes thought he saw a lady at the window whom he knew. He excused himself to his friend, who was very earnest in wanting him to sti accompany him, and even pulled the lappels of his coat, Stokes went into the hotel, found that the lady was not an acquaintance, and in passing along the corridor to the ladies’ entrance Staircase, and as he reached the head of the stairs, he saw Mr, Fisk at the bottom, coming in, STOKES? STORY ;OF THE KILLING, His first feeling was to-go down some two or three steps, and just at that moment Fisk drew a pistol. Stokes at the same time drew his pistol, and also fired two shots, Mr. Fisk dropped, and Stokes did not know whether he had injared him or not, or -whether he had kilied him. or not. He walked awa: walked back again; and as he waiked he saw .some and as to the head irs he away and get a doctor.” He returned and went down stairs, by the main staircase, at a moderate pace, and walked through to the bar- ber’s shop. When he got there he was very ¢x- cited and trembling. He was arrested and taken upstairs, and after about five ‘minutes he was taken into the presence of Fisk; Fisk said, “Yes, that’s Stokes,” although the evidence has been 10 ‘ot sald, “do changed to read “is that the man hat shot ou, Mr. Fisk? and — the ys “Yes, Stokes.” McKeon assured the jury that this story was the same that. Stokes ‘had told him, as his counsel, on the very evening of the arrest and incarceration Stokes: had shown symp- toms of mental disturbance, and, in place of his usual affectioriate demeanor, lad treated his father {with marked disrespect. Every one had remarked that he was a changed man; but it would be for the jury to say how far his mind had been disturbed by : treatment he had received at the hands of isk. The Court then, at a quarter past five, adjourned to Friday morning, the jury being allowea to go to their homes as usual. MUSIC AND THE DRAMA. Central Park Garden. It would be difficult to match the present season at this charming metropolitan resort in steady, un- remitting popularity. Every night since the open- ing it has been crowded, and the audience belongs to that class that one meets at the Italian Opera during the winter. Last night was no excep- tion to the rule in regard to the attend- ance, and the following fine programme was presented:—Inauguration March, Otto Singer; overture, “Siege of Corinth,” Rossini; waltz, “Autumn Roses,” Strauss; selections from “Ham- let,” A, Thomas; overture, “King Stephan,’ Beethoven; Bridal Procession, “Lohengrin,” Wagner; waltz, “Artist's Life,” Strauss; symphonic “poem, “ Les Pre'udes,” Liszt; ovor- ture, “Light Cavalry,” Suppee; serenade, Ros- sini; waltz,, “Wine, Woman anda Song,” Strauss; gelop, “Japanese,” A, E. Pease. Certainly if variety alone were sought the above programme should satisfy the most exact- ing. The Strauss waltzes receive more than usual attention now, in view of the expected visit of the peat composer to New York when he can release ‘imself from the Boston Jubilee. It seems as if the orchestra of Theodore Thomas develops new features of excellence at crcl hearing, and it would be impossible now to find another org: niza- tion equal to them in America. - ‘This accounts for the numbers and character of the attendauce at the garden every evening. <= Bowery Theatre. The salamander qualities of the gamins of the east side are well known, but have never been more tested than this weck when compelled to witness that chef dauvre of all Bowery plays, ‘‘Mazeppa.’ Miss Kate Raymond is the daring rider, and the “highly trained steed” clambers across the stage carpenter's mountains with, no doubt, feelings ‘of disgust in ~his equine mind. The costume of the rider is, like that of Brian O’Linn, “pleasant and cool,” but what with being jolted om the back of the flery untamed and indulging in sundry broadsword combats the lady undergoes a species of histrionic martyrdom every night. But the play, whatever persons of intelligence may think of it never fails to draw forth the admira- tion of the Bowery boys. But it is too much for this weather. .

Meetings of Minor | So- cieties. If coming events ever cast shadows before the early dissolution of the remaining fragments of the trades unions is about to eventuate. In fact, sinco the first grand success of the metal workers, which, like previous displays, burned brilliantly for @ while only to end in smoke, they have had little or nothing to nourish hope, The golden reports from Bridge- port, New Yaven, Philadelphia, Rochester, Albany, Proffered ald have been deferred. Dissension and disintegra- tion has taken the place of harmony and union, and now resolutions of even the most desperate dourage and obstinacy contain no hope for them. The two eight-hour leagues may hold out another week. That the metal workers will there can be no doubt, as'the money from Cleve- land has not arrived, and few will return to work till after that is divided and their share ts in thelr pockets. When it nas been distributed and they can only look forward to weeks of darker uncertainty a7en, than the past ones, they will, no doubt, get employment where they can, and the strike of May, June and July will have ended. The parade of the lst of August will hardly awaken it again, though such is the result hoped for by the enthusiastic agitators, The loss to the country, to the manufacturers, and, above all, to the poor in this world’s goods, and wives and little ones never overclothed or too well fed even in tie best of times—is the sad result apparent of the strike, That there are other results to flow out from tts noone can doubt. The agitation of so many elements and interests, 80 long continued, cannct but produce important changes. That they willbe for the better for all parties is to be hoped. According to their ditferent stories they could not be much worse for either, which is some consolation. Such is life. The German Eight-Hour League, Teutonia Hall was yesterday as deserted and silent as any temple of the god Gambrinus could be on @ hot day, with an atmosphere stillheating. In one of the coolest and most secluded recesses of the place sat one of the coolest ond mos select committees of the kéason. they formally announced that they had no “news for newspapers,” and refused to be interviewed.

The men are still LOE, waiting for thelr money from far-away Cleveland. ; Tho Carpenters. The members of the Carpenters and Joiners Union held a mecting last evening which was strictly private in its nature. According to the in- formation received from 9 few men belonging to the society the object of the meeting was to elect new men to the different offices, to recejve new mem- bers into the organization and to collect dues. About thrée or four hundred men had assembled in the hall (Demilt Dispensary, Twenty-third street and Second avenue) at elght o’clock. The or- ganization is said to number over three thousand men has numerous branches throughout the city. Michael Parday was elected president last evening. These men are apparently imelligent, but manifest a total indifference to the sympat of the public by the manner in whic! their meetings are conducted. A pass- word, for instance, is necessary to enter their meeting hall, which must be whispered into the extended ear of the faithful Janitor. Themajority of the men are now enjoying the eight-hour luxury. A large number, however, are still unemploye: and Ppor ced idle from the funds of the soclet; wi seem to look forward with hopeful eyes to the Mnal success of the organization. It would be nevertheless, that they should alter their pro- gramme of organization and borrow direction from the example of other societies. The Laborers’ Union. The Fourth division of the Laborers’ Union Be nevolent Society, comprising: chiefly the hodcar- riers of the various parts of the city, held a meet- ing last evening, at the New York Agsembly Rooms, corner ot Twenty-second street’ and Firéttavenue, A large number ofmen were In at ice, and, for the most part, in their dally costumes, with heated brows and sweaty jackets, truly represent- ing the indefatigable men of toll. Mr. Nolan called the meeting to order, the special object of which was the regular payment of dues, ‘They ave a benevolent society, and hold their meetings with open doors. Like many other city unions they fall to understand the technicalities and observa. tions of the press in their behalf and against their delinquencies. ‘They are al employed under the eight-hour sys- tem, with Very few exceptions, No new feature has turned up with regard to their programme of intended proceedings, nor do they bs begs to be suiiciently decided as to what object they have in view, declaring at one time that some of the men are on strike, and a; that all are employed aceording to the eigh ir system.
