THE WARD'S ISLAND TRAGEDIES, The Coroner’s Inquiry Into the Cause of Death of Ornell and Seymour. A SICKENING STORY. How the Helpless Lunatics Are Kicked, Ouffed and Jumped Upon by Their Brutal Keepers. THRILLING TESTIMONY. Particulars of the Identification of Farrell by His Victim. The Post-Mortem Examination of the Colored Patient. VERDICT OF THE JURY AGAINST FARRELL The Prisoner Sent to the Tombs to Await the Action of the Grand Jury. Yesterday there was great excitement in the ity regarding the inquest which was to be held on the Geaths of John Ornell and Horatio Seymour, both inmates of the Insane Asylum on Ward’s Island, and who died, as was alleged, through vio- lence received at the hands of Thomas Farrell, one {the keepers of Ward M. A considerable number of curious spectators gathered in the office of the Ooroner, and before the hour for the opening of the Proceedings a large number of people were dounging about the benches in the City Hall Park, feeding upon the suspense which precedes the first elimax in a sensation. THE PRISONER, A few moments before eleven o'clock the prisoner was brought into the room bya police- man, and took a seat in the corner, near the desk ofthe Coroner. He had been in the Tombs since his arrest, yet, although he wore a look of slight pallor, his expression was quite bright and buoy- ant. He is not a person of very prepossess- sing appearance, and has a large lump over his left eye, which will add to his evil look. There isa vestige of sinister motive in his eyes, and the whole contour of his face is of the deter- mined, unscrupulous type, which never conveys a very pleasing impression, On several occasions during the investigation he betrayed some ex- @itement, rising excitedly in his scat and to be heard. But each time he When the verdict was at Yength given a sudden flush overspread his fea- ures, and he looked about the room with nervous perturbation. Apart from these incidents his Gemeanor was stolid and indifferent, and he fro- quently gave play toa cunning smile, intended to reste a profound impression on the jury. Coroner Keenan soon afterwards made his ap- pearance, accompanied by Dr. Wooster Beach, his Basistant, and the proceedings were formally Opened. The jury were by thistime all in their peats, and the Coroner in a few words explained to them the salient features of the case, as they pre- sented themselves before investigation. Aitor they were sworn the first witness was immediately talled. His name was Edward Burke. TESTIMONY OF EDWARD BURKE. In answer to questions he said:—I am a warden in the Lunatic Asylum on Ward’s Island; I know very Uttle about this case, as I was absent at the time of Ms occurrence; Dr. Echeverria had inquired into It, and on Monday, on returning from Philadelphia, Lunderstood that some patients had been abused an attendant whose name was Thomas Farrell; patient who was injured was Join Ornell; 4 was told that he died in consequence of abuse. Q. Did you take any action in the matter? A. No; she resident physician took all the action and had pineasy taken the depositions of the keepers in the case; I had Farrell arrested and locked up in the Tweilth precinct station house; | notified the Coro- mer that evening that it was a case for his investi- gation, and stated the supposed cause of death, THE DEATH OF SEYMOUR. Q. Have you heard of any other death since? A. Yes; that of Horatio Seymour. Q. When was that? A. lt was the evening be- fore last—Monday evening. Q. Did you know anything about the cause of fis death? A. I supposed it to be the same as that of the other patient, that is {rom fi by Thomas Farrell; Ornell was admitted to the asylum May 23, 1872, and he died September 12; fermation ren admitted July 31, and he died Sep- Tr What ward were they in? A. Ward M. Both? A. Yes, sir; not all the time, however; they had been in otner wards and were transferre to that some weeks before. Q What keepers were attendants in that ward ? A. Edward il Was onc; there were three at the time of this occurrence—Edward Ball, Patrick McLaughlin and Thomas Farrell. Q. How long had Farrell been attendant? A. He ‘was appointed on the 29th of July, 1872. lave you ever heard of any complaints against Farrell before this time? A. No, not against I Far- rell; there had been a complaint against a man in the same ward, named Faulkner, for assaulting one Of the patients. ‘Who made the complaint? A. I made the com- jnt, but it was on circumstantia! evidence; one of the patients reported it tome; Faulkner said that he had done it in self-defence; I recommended Fe. discharge and the Commissioners restored 3 i have seen BRUISES ON PATIENTS, but as far asl could ascertain they wore inflicted by other inmates; sometimes a black eye ora Scratch on tlie face. Q. You have not becn able to trace by whom the ‘wounds were inflicted? No, sir. Q. What is the duty of the attendant? A. To gee that patients are kept clean; attend to their meals; regulate the hour of their retiring, &c. They are all on duty at the same time; we have two Reapers in each ward, and three in ward M, which is hardest ward to take care of, and where the filthiest patients are confined; the keepers must be on duty in the hall, and are not permitted in the ward ; they are on duty one at a time. Qa bo they have any directions in regard to RESTRAINING THB PATIENTS? A They most always report first to the resident sician, and, without instructions, patients can- pot be restrained; they have no power to puu- ish or to strike them, except in the most extreme cases of self-defence. Q. Is it left to them to determine when they shall ase violence? A. Well, it 1s left to be judged alter- wards; if wo think they have done wrong we re- rt them to the resident physician, and they are issed if fenuity. The jury did not wish to ask this witness any questions and he was sent away. Their foreman was reading a copy of yesterday's Hera. during ‘the foregoing testimony.

What do you know in reference to THE CASE OF SEYMOUR, Doctor? A. About nine A. M. on Saturday, after I returned from the Court in Harlem, I was informed by the assistant resident physician that Horatio Seymour, in ward M, was in a dying condition, and that, asic appeared, from the treatment received at the hands of Farrell, according to the statement ofa man in the same ward; I went and examined Seymour, and found him with symptoms of acute peritonitis; he told me then that he had been KICKED AND ILL TREATED BY FARRELL, and gave a very rational account of the manner in which he had been kicked and struck. He repeated the same statement every time I saw him until his death, and on one occasion he told me that ‘that map, with the lamp on the eye, he kicked me hard.” In this way he identified Farrell, not know- ing the name. § Do you consider his statement entitled to be- uel? A. Ido, ao farasicould judge; he died on Monday evening. Q. Can you state what you found upon examina- tion of his remains? A. 1 can read it to you. THE POST MORTEM EXAMINATION was made about twenty-four hours after death. The following paper was then read:— Post-mortem examination of Horatio Seymour, a negro, Taade about theaty-four hours aiter death, September 17, The body was not emaciated; had well-marked musou- lar development; cadaverous’ 1isidity was manifest, There wasa cut on the top of the head, a ttle to the right side, and close to it a mark of another cut, fully healed. An abscess of old duration was opened in the right ear. There were two abrasions over the right shoulder.” One of them was entirely head. On the back of thia right shoulder there were two superticial, longitudinal dark marks, one inch and a half long and one-eighth of an inch wide, There was a very slight superficial and diffuse discoloration of the skin on the lower part of the right side of the chest. An abrasion was also found on left Jeg, just below the knee, midway between the knee and foot. There was a large suppurating ulcer on the external part of the rignt heel. Under the skin, and in the middle of the front of the chest, on a line With the third rib, there was a very re- cent extravasation of blood, of oval shape, about the size of a silver dollar. The fourth lett rib was fractured about one inch from ‘the cartilage, the fragments bein disunited and surrounded by suppuration. The elghth and ninth ribs of the left side were also broken, about three inches from the cartilage, both fractures appearing of recentoccurrence. Onthe right side the sixth and sev- enth ribs were fractured, the sixth about one inch anda haifirom the cartilage and the seventh two inches from the cariilage, |The ends of the iragments of the sixth right rib were gurrounded by a thick glutinous serosity. | There Were slight adiiesions extending over the whole of both lungs, which otherwive appeared healtny, with the ex. ception of a very distinct circumscribed spot of Inflam- mition beneath the fractured ribs, on the right side, cor- Fesponding to the upper portion of the lower lote of th right lung. ‘Ihe heart was rather large, but healthy. The liver, stomach and splecn were natural. The intésti distended by gai did not seem inflamed. ‘were pale and enlarged and looked as though in an carly siaze of fatty degeneration, with a few small, superficial transparent cysts. A recent cxtravasation of blood the size of a filver haltdollar, existed under the skin of the forehead, over the right oye. ‘The doubtful su-cutaneous mark also on the back of the head. On opening the skull the blood gi out from the sight side and a film of recently extravasated blood covered almost the whole brain. This blood was superficial to the brain under the duramater, as usually observed in cases of severe violence on the head. Over the right and upper part of the head the blood was more firmly coagnlated than in any other parts. There wi fractare of any of the hones of the skull, which were thick. No rupture of the membranes of, the bi lection of scrum or extravasation of blood wa: discoy- ered in the brain, which showed a healthy looking con sisiency and appearance in every other respect. HEEL PRINTS ON SEYMOUR'S HEAD. Q. What kind of violence was administered, do ‘ou think? A, Kicks; the marks seemed ou the ead to show the form of a heel; 1 forgot to say be- fore that there were marks of pus on the walls of the ward; Corden told me that this man Farrell slapped Seyinour once 80 hard on the side of the head that he burst an abscess and the matter gushed out on the wall; the marks are seen there now. ‘in or col- THE STORY OF SAMUEL CORDEN, The testimony of Dr. Echeverria was here ended, and the next witness, Samuel Corden, was called. Heis an old man, with a perfectiy white head, Weak, catia | ‘and emaciated—a very picture of death. He said:—I reside at 131 Newark avenue, Jersey City; I was recently an inmate of the insane asylum on Ward's Island; two wecks ago the resi- dent plysician considered me recovered ; I had been three months in the institution; I was in ward If part of the time—about six or scven weeks—and Part of the time was in ward M. | Q. Is your memory good and clear of what has happened in the last two weeks? A. Yes, sir. Q. Do you remember seeing either Ornell or Sey- mour while they were living’ A. 0, yes; I remem- ber Mr. Ornell, an elderly man, coming there the same day that I did. © Q. Do you remember Seymour? A. Yes, sir; I remember bis coming in. Q. Did any injuries from any one? A. Yes, sir; Ornellhad been in for some days; he hopped around to get to his meals; then he seemed to fail in strength; was fond of lying down on the floor; I saw Farrell kick him while he was on the floor on several occas:ons, but not ped. Q. In what part of the body? A. Either on the arm or side, . Did you ever sec blood on him after he was kicked ? “A. No, sir, I never did. Q. Did you see him every time that he kicked him? A. No, sir; he might have kicked him when Taid not see him. Q. Did you ever see any one kick or abuse Sey- mour, the colored man? <A. Yes, sir; he was struck on the right ear with the hand, BREAKING AN ABSCESS; I saw Farrell, on one occasion, stamp on him after he had knocked lim down, Farrell, seated in the corner of the room, here arose and said hurriedly—“Gentlemen, will you allow me to speak for one moment?” The Coroner—Piease sit down; you will find an opportunity. Q. Why did Farrell knock him down? A. I know no occasion for his knocking him down; he was A HARMLESS MAN; Farrell made the remark to him, after stamping upon him, “You wouldu’t mind entering a den of tigers, would you?’ Seymour said, “No, sir;” I saw him strapped sometimes— BEATEN WITH A STRAP; with a Saratoga trunk strap. qa The Coroner here commanded silence. A Jaryman—Who used the strap? Farrell. & Do you know of hia being hurt elsewhere ? A. His head was hurt when he came into te asylum, & You know of no.accident where he received a violent biow upon the head? A. No, si Q. A, Thomas i. . You say that he has been black and blue sometimes? A. Yes, fir; I've seen him black and biue allover from beating by a keeper whom they call Jerry, in ward H. Q. You didn’t see any one strike the deceased, except Farrell—neither keepers nor inmates’ A. No, sir; except ove inmate, named Dennis O'Brion, whom 1 saw at several diferent times strike § mour in the back wtth his fist and shove him to his seat; there are no weapons in the ward that could be appropriated, A Juryman—Would you judge that the force with which Farrell struck Seymour would cause death? A. I should say that it was dangerous, and could not Ey that it would cause death; the last time I saw either of the patients beaten was about two weeks ago; he was put to bed a week before he died, EDWARD WALL'S TRSTIMONY, The next witness was Edward Wall, who ex- Jained that his name had been misspelled on the Books of the asylum. He said:—I am an attendant in ca) New York Asylum for the Insane op Ward’s Island. Q. Please state what you know of this case? Jolin Ornell Was @ man whom I knew very well when he first came there he had an fron shoe at- tached to his body, his leg being distorted; Orneil was such a person as would frequently, When pass- ing he the ward, strike patients with his right hand. His left, 1 think, was paralyzed; he was of a mischievous disposition: some time’ durin; the month of August he was translerred from War 1to Ward M; he was very feeble at the time; some- times he would come to his meals and at other times he would refuse them; about three or four days previons to his going to bed he became very filthy; about two weeks ago, petnepe, on the morning that he was first confined to his bed, he t Up as usual and dressed himsclf, and McLaugh- in called my attention to his condition, and I mediately put him to bed; he had his clothes on; I reported the caso,to Dr. Echeverria; Dr. Echever- na then made mention that be thought this man ou see either Ornell or Seymour receive | . Mr. Watson was first examined. | | | accepting these men as suretics under the circum- | stances would be in full compliance with the re- Ornell was abused; had been knocked down; J told the Doctor that 1 thought he could not be down, as he was not able te stand; Ornell ‘waa not asked if I was the man who did it, nor, to the best of my knowl , Aid the Doctor ask that uestion in regard to M hin; in my presence there was no man but Farrell himself put to the teat before the dying man. Q. Did Ornell say that Farrell struck him? A, Ornell sald that FARRELL “HOPPED” ON HUM} We understood that he meant Farrell. Q, Do you know yourself of any injuries received ymour or Ornell? A. I] know of Ornell being injured by a patient; we had 9 man named Charles Conklin who died eight or nine days ago; he was & very foracious man—nos viol in eating. On going into the dtnt ner time he ran against Ornell and knocked him against the door, and that accounts, in my opinion, for his aoe ere Tam not aware of any other in- Juries recei' by Ornell or Seymour in avy way. How much of the time are you in the ward? A. Tam supposed to be there at all times unless business calla me away; 1 am in and out at all hours; al attendant; it is impos- lam the Drincip. sible for me to sce all that goes on there;1I do not think that either Ornell or Seymour are entitled to bellef: a day or two before Ornell died Mrs. Bar- ker, the matron, said to me that he had told her when she asked him If Farrell had “hopped” on him, “Yes, he hopped on me once IN A LAGER BEER SALOON IN FOURTH STREBT;? Seymour said to one of the physicians in my pres- ence that lis injuries had been sted six months ago. Q. You are not on duty at night? A. No, sir; the wards are then in charge of the watchmen; there are opportunities at night for the patients to injure one another. Patrick McLaughlin was the next witness. He said that he was a keeper in ward M. Q. Have you seen anything in relation to these cases more than was stated hy the last witness? A. My impression is that Farrell was brought forward in a way which would induce bis identification; he ‘was pressed forward; I was not brought forward at the time at all, and if 1 had been I really believe I would ag soon have been identified as Farrell. Q. Do you think that Ornell meant that Farrell beat him? A. Loouldnotsay, asI was not brought forward and he being the only man who was bet forward; he meant Farrell when he said, “He hopped on my body ;"’ I do not think his state- met ht fal AT: le ees (enowin is that your signature on the paper (6! 3 him Dr. Echeverria’s memoranda)? <A. Yes, sir, that is correct. The paped was read to McLaughlin, who said :— The words of Ornell there are correct. THE DEPOSITION OF THE DEPUTY CORONER was then made. Dr. Beach—1 have made a post-mortem examina- tion on the bodies of Orneil and Seymour, with the resident physician; in the case of Seymour I concur with the opinion of Dr. Echeverria; Ornell had a disease of the brain, which mighthave proved fatal at any time, yet death could have been accelerated by very slight injuries. The jury were about to retire. The prisoner again asked to say a few words, but was refused. e jury then went out to deliberate upon the evidence. While they were absent there was a busy hum of voices. Farreli’s fellow kecpers held subdued convereation with one another, and Dr. Echeverria consulted in an under tone with Dr. Beach. At forty minutes ere one the jury re- turned, walked quickly to their seats and handed the written verdict in cach case to the Coroner, which was read aloud. THE VERDICTS, “Horatio Seymour came to his death from in- juries received at the hands of Thomas Farrell.” “The death of John N, Ornell was accelerated by injuries inflicted by Thomas Farrell.” It was not till the solemn result was announced that the prisoner betrayed any strong symptoms of emotion. His face turned a violent red, and when he looked around the room it wore an ex- pression of fear. Every gaze was bent upon him. He was called before the Coroner, who asked, “What 1s your name??? “Thomas Farrell; 1 reside in 110th street, between Tenth and Eleventh avenues, 1am a stairbuilder by trade; but have been a keeper in the Insane Asylum, on Ward’s Island. I have nothing to say, ony, that Lam not guilty of this charge at all,” le signed his name with a firm hand and was re- Manded to the Tombs to await an investigation by the Grand Jury. THE INGERSOLL BAIL, BONDS. Examination of His Sureticsp—The Father of the Great Chair Maker Gives a Schodule of His Property—A Partner of the Lat- ter, the Other Proffered Seour- ity, also Gives a Statement of His Worldly Effocts, That famous suit, in legal phraseology designated the suit of the People vs. Tweed, Ingersoll, Garvey and Underwood, but popularly known as the O’Conor sult, instituted to recover from the parties named $6,000,000, alleged to have been stolen by them from the city, after a prolonged respite in the courts, has again given evidence of vitality in pro- ceedings yesterday morning before Judge Leouard, holding Supreme Court, Chambers, touching justif- cation of the sureties offered for James H. Inger- soll. The parties appearing on his bail bond, which | was for $500,000, it will be remembered, were | William W, Watson and Lorin Ingersoll, the iatter being the father of Mr. Ingersoll, and the two being partners in business. They were required to jus- tify in $500,000 each. Mr. Wheeler H. Peckham ap- peared for the people and Mr. Elihu Root for Mr. Ingersoll. MR. WATSON’S PROPERTY. He said that he owned a half interest in real estate on the Bowery and on Chrystie street, worth $250,000; property on Beekman street, worth $35,000; property on Sixty-fifth street, worth $25,000; a farm in New Jersey, worth $20,090, and about $210,000 in bonds | and mortgages. All this property he owned free of debts or encumbrances, Q Is this all the property you own? <A. lown | personal property besides of the value of about $150,000, Q. How much of your property was conveyed to you in order to enable you to justify in the full amount named in your bond? A. Aoout one hun- dred and twenty thousand dollars; this was con- veyed to me absolutely fora nom{nal considera- tion and without any agreement or understanding as to a reconveyauce; Tammany bonds, a mort- ge on Fifth avenue property and 140 shares of insurance stock were put in my hands for this pur. pose; Mr. Ogilby conveyed the property to me; 1 was nota ‘tner with the defendant, Ingersoll, but with his father, Q. Would you return the property given you for the purpose stated, if this bond was out of the way?’ A. Idon‘t know whether I would or not; I have made no agreement for its reconveyance, INGERSOLL'S FATHER TELLS WHAT HE 18 WORTH. Mr. Ingersoll testificd that he owned the other haif of the property on Rewer, and Chrystie street mentioued by Mr. Watson. He owned in ad- dition to this property in Twenty-third street, be- tween Seventh and Eighth .avenues, worth $500,000; property 1u Beckman street of the value of $17,500; one-third interest in dock property at | the foot of East Twenty-sixth street, of the value of $90,000; property in Morrisania worth $30,000; stocks, bonds, mortgages and other personal prop- erty, worth about $309,000, | Q. How much do you consider yourself worth al- together above your debts and liabilities? A. Be- tween £900,009 and $1,600,000, Q. Which, if any of the above property, was con- veyed to you to enable you to net for the fui aniount namedin yourbond? A, The property in West Twenty-third street. Q. Was this given to you absolutely? A. It was, Q. In case of Mr. Ingersoll respoiding when his case Was called for trial would you give back tis property? A. [don't know. Q. Do you mean to say you do not know whether in such case you would reconvey tae property’ A. 1 mean just what I have said, I don’t know. ARGUMENT OF COUNSEL. The above examination concluded, the long cros3- | examination of both developing nothing hew or | important, the counsel argued the case at some { length, Mr. Peckham fnsisted that the parties could not properly justily, inasmuch as a of | the property sworn to by each, or owned by them respectively, Was only nominally theirs and given | them for this purpose. He did not consider that quirements of the statute. Mr. Root urged that the property in question be- louged absolutely to Messrs. Ingersoll & Watson; that they could sell, give away or will away tho same, or do with it as they pleased. The whole ques Son lay with the conscience of the Judge. ‘hig property was hable with the rest in case Mr. Ingersoll, the defendant, did not respond. He asked permission to send up a decision of Judge | Cardozo in the Tweed case covering precisely the same point. “Oonsidering Judge Cardozo's late career,” in- | terrupted Mr. Peckham, “I don’t think his opinion | amounts to much”? “A kick at a dead lion,’ whispered a lawyer. “It will do for an argument,” said tie Judge, looking at the counsel over his spectacies. “And a good argument it will be found,” observed ot. Mr. Rov DECISION POSTPONED. Judge Leonard made afew general observation: upon the matter, which seemed to indicate a di position to accept the sureties. He, however, | thought the subject was one requirin, ‘a careful examination of all the tacts, and therefore would take the matter under advisement. He would try to render his decision to-day: SUPREME COURT CALENDAR. ROcHEsTER, N.

Before Judge Shea, Louis Guipe, Jr., by his Guardian, vs. Isaac Rod- man.—In January last the plaintiff, a boy, return- iug from school, was crossing Third avenue at Sev- enty-ninth street, and while walting for a car to pass was run down by a butcher cart belonging to the defendant, driven by one Francis McCuen, and seriously injured about the face and head. Damages to the extent of the Court’s jurisdiction were claimed, Defendant's counsel sought to prove that the accident was brought about by the boy’s negli- gence, but the principal ground of defence was that while McCuen was doing business for the defendant under a contract he was not engaged as a driver, and on this occasion had taken the wagon without permission, to go upon private business. This was testified to both py the defendant and McCuen, No evidence of weight being offered by hemes coun- 8cl on this point, the Court rendered a judgment o! dismissal, On the ground that sufictent evidence had not been offered to show that the relation of master and servant existed between the defendant and driver at the time the accident occurred, “A New Way to Pay Old Debts.” Before Judge Joachimsen, Myndert P. Van Cordt vs. Mary G. Frazer.—The plaintiff dia about one hundred and fifty dollars’ worth of plumbing work in the house occupied by the defendant and her husband and owned by one of them. A judgment was recently recovered against the husband, but the house turned out to be in the wife’s name and the judgment good for nothing. On this trial it appeared that orders in the matter were given by the wife as well as the husband, consultations always being held between them. The husband testified that the work was done on his order, and, a3 he owed his wife money, he let the work go in settlement, The Judge said he could hardly approve: of that way of cancelling an indebtedness, and certainly could take no cog- nizance of such an arrangement between husband aud wife, unless some notice of it was brought home to the party doing the work. Judgment in favor of plaintiit, COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. Alleged Outrage Upon a Little GirleThe Accused Acquitted. Before Judge Bedford. The first case passed upon by the jury in this court yesterday was a charge of outrage, preferrea against Martin Forrester by @ girl named Hervina Galt, who said she was nearly thirteen years old. A respectable physician testified that he ex- amined the girl, found that nothing was the matter with her, and no indication of injury upon her per- son. The complainant communicated a certain statement to the Judge, which was told to the doctor, who said that it was perfectly impossibie for such a thing to have occurred. Under these circumstances the jury promptly | rendered a verdict of not guilty. A Boy Burglar. William J. Meagher, a boy, was tried for bur- giariously entering the lager beer saloon of Adam Fries, 540 West Twenty ninth street, on the 22d of August, by getting through the fanlight. He stole the money drawer containing $10, was pursued by an officer, and, in order to escape arrest, jumped into the river at Eleventh avenue, but was subse- quently captured. He was found guilty of petit larceny and seat to the Penitentiary for six months. Two “Unfortunates” Sent to the Peni- tentiary. Susan Wilson and Josephine Clark were tried | and convicted of stealing $120 from Martin Brain while in thelr company at a disreputable house in Greene street five weeks ago. Although the pris- oners were pele girls of the town there were some mitigating circumstances which led the Dis- trict Attorney to invoke the clemency of the Court. Judge Bedford sentenced them to the Penitentiary for one year. Allegea Felonious Assault Officer. Willlam Dunn, an old man, was placed at the bar Upon an | charged with attempting to kill Oficer Ginley, of the Eleventh precinct, on the 12th of August by attempting to strike him with an axe. The oflicer’s account of the occurrence ditfered materiaily from that given by the accused and his witnesses, who swore that Ginley beat the accused in a most brutal manner. Mr, Hummel stated that he wished to prove b: Dr. Nealis that the defendant was wounded, and, as the usual hour of adjournment had arrived, the Court adjourned. Grand and Petit Larcenics, Frank Hudson, who on the 2d inst. stole three pieces of velvet, the property of Sigmond S, Prager, 482 Broadway, pleaded guilty to an attempt at grand larceny, and was sent to the Penitentiary for one year, A similar plea was accepted from Kate Ryan, who was charged with stealing, cu the 13th of August, $35 froin August Wilson, fary Ann Slavin pleaded guilty to petit larceny, the indictment charging her with steaing two pieces of lace, the property of Harris Wile.

Judge Shipman will sit in this Court on Tucsday, October 1, and for two weeks will be engaged in the trial of persona accused of criminal offences, His Honor has at present before him the question whether the indictments found against the mem- bers of the “Whiskey Ring” are defective or not. If he decides that the indictments are good in law it 18 probable that the District Astarney will take up the trial of one or more of the promi- nent leaders of this “ring.” Such trials would certainly occupy all the time now specified within which Judge Shipman is to confine his attentton to the criminal calendar, and exclude the possibility of any other case ofa criminal nature being entered Upon du that period. Ifanother judge be not Sppolnted sit, or if Congress do not empower nited States Commissioners to deal fina'ly with matters of a criminal nature the calendar will hard- ly ever be cleared, as the Grand Jury finds indict- ments much quicker than the judges are able to try them. On the third Monday in October equity cases will be taken up either by Judge Shipman or another. URITED STATES DISTRICT COURT. Business in Bankraptcy.
