~ THE COURTS. THE OHUROH STREET EXTENSION. A Nice Question of Interest—Important Test Case in Connection with Street Opening. THE DEATH SENTENCE. Besentence of David Murphy To Be Hanged— Application To Be Made to Gen- eral Dix to Commute. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. In the United States Circuit Court yesterday Judge Woodrum rendered his decision in the case of Robert Graham vs. the New Amsterdam Fire Insurance Company. On the ist of February, 1878, Mr. Graham filed a petition in the United Btates District Court, praying that the New Am- sterdam Fire Insurance Company be adjudicated a bankrupt. on the ground that it had committea certain acts of bankruptcy about the month of October, 1872. This petition was denied by Judge Blatchford, who heid that it was not put on file Within six months after the commission of the alleged bankruptcy. From this decision an appeal ‘was taken to the United States Circuit Court, and yesterday Judge Woodruff rendered a judgmeat sustaining the decision of Judge Blatchford. The case of Simon Donau and Christopher Flood, who had been on trial for several days in the ‘United States Circuit Court, before Judge Benedict sand a jury, on an indictment charging them with having conspired to defraud the government out 1 the tax on a quantity of whiskey manufactured at the Spring Valley Distillery, Rockland county, has resulted in a-verdict of conviction against both prisoners, who were remanded for sentence. Yesterday J. S. Nicholson was charged before Commissioner Shields with stabving Herman Stanger, on board the American bark J. H. Seigund. Defendant was held in $1,000 bail for examination. Ormsby Roddy, 388 First avenue, was charged yesterday before Commissioner Shields with hav- ing passed a $20 counterfeit bill on Isaac Schredzkl, 890 First avenue. The evidence offered in support of the charge entirely failed, and the defendant was therefore discharged. The Supreme Court, General Term, adjourned from yesterday till the 11th of this month. An important decision having reference to claims against the city growing out of street openings ‘was rendered yesterday by the Supreme Court, General Term. The opinion in the matter given by Judge Davis will be found in full elsewhere. David Murphy, who in June of last year shot and Kilied David Barry in front oi a liquor saloon in Second avenue, and upon trial before Recorder Hackett,in the Court of General Sessions, was found guilty of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be hanged, was yesterday resentenced in the Su- preme Court, General Term, to be hanged on the 8th of next month, A singular phase in the case ‘was the presence of the Walworth jury. Subse- quently a stay of proceedings was obtained, and every effort will be made to induce Governor Dix to commute the senteace to imprisonment for life, In the United States Circuit Court yesterday, be- fore Judge Benedict and a jury, Joseph Kendall ‘was put upon his trial for sending through the Poss OMce an article intended to effect an immoral pur. pose. The case was not concluded, and will be re- @umed to-day. Judge Blatchford has gone to Newport, R. L, te enjoy hts vacation. At intervals between the Present time and October he will return to hold ourt, editing on each visit twoor three days, THE CHURCH STREET EXTENSION. A Nice Question of Interest, and How the City Saves It—{mportant Test Case im Connection with Street Openings—The Law, as Defined by Judge Davis. There seems to be no end to litigation growing Out of the Church street extension. Mnmerons suits brought against the city—and this ‘was regarded as a test case—was one by Mr. A. Gordon Hammersley. He owned which was among the buildings taken. The award of damages allowed him was $90,000, to which there was Go objection. The city paid the award, but he claimed interest on the amount to date from four months from the confirmation oi the re- Pport—an amount altogether of some $7,000. Te Com- mon Council, a8 will be remembered, pursuant to the act of 1818, suspended the opening for eighteen | months. Meantime, he remained, as others did, fm peaceful possession, and enjoyed all the rents; but notwithstanding this, from the fact ©! the report of the Commissioners of Estimate and Assessinent before confirmed beiore this, asked under the statute interest from four months atter the confirmation. In Supreme Court, Circuit, he obtained a verdict in his favor, and from this an | y to the Su- ae case Juages of appeal was taken on behalf of the er preme Court, neral Term. A decisic ‘was rendered yesterday, in which all t the Court—Judves Mullin, Fancher and Davis—gave | opinions for reversal of the judgment and grauting @ new trial. in ful, it being much longer and more exhausting On the subject thun those of the other Judges not the city of New ¥: ‘of iands taken for streets on the coi Hirmation of the report of assessment of damages, £e., and were authorized times thereatter to take possession of the y Part or pasts thereat; ‘Without any sult or proceeding at law for that purpose.” Under that statute the Corporation were required within four calendar months alter the confirmation of the re- port to pay the owner, and if not paid the parties in Whose favor they were made were authorized, at any time aiter appl 10 recover the sau iterest, fro application. 1 remedies es und rt, and nd the power fo take and ex asure of the Corporation were also im- ity to pay within ‘nd the rigut to bring sult after application expiration of the four mouths holly, inde ‘ntiy, of the on to take calendar months ting n 80 similar evils act ot 153.

TI am of opinion that the judy- ent should be reversed and anew trial ordered, with costs to abide the event. THE DEATH SENTENCE, Y . but th gestion ect tg modify Resentence of David Murphy To Be Hanged—The Walworth Jury Present— Stay of Proceedings and Probable Com- mutation of Sentence to Imprisonment tor Life. David Murphy shot and killed David Barry on the 18th of June, 1872, in front of a liquor saloon, corner of Second avenue and Sixty-second street. It is unnecessary to recite the particulars of the homicide, as they were published in full at the time in the HERALD, as also all the details of the subsequent trial, before Recorder Hackett, in the Court of General Sessions, when he was convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be hanged on the 2d of last August, This looked like that speedy justice for which the public was then quite as sedulously and impatiently clamoring as now. Bat in this case there were peculiarly extenuating circumstances, the strongest of which, perhaps, was that Murphy was trying to prevent his brother from drinking, and that while thus engaged a crowd surrounded him, including Barry, who beat him, when he pulled out his pistol and fired the fata, shot, Of course Mr. William F. Howe, his zealous and indefatigable counsel, under such circumstances, used his utmost efforts to save his client from the dreadful doom to which he had been adjudged. He applied fora writ of error and a stay of proceedings belore Judge Leonard, at the Supreme Court, Chambers, which was granted, and upon this the case was long and ably argued atthe last May term of the Supreme Court, General Term, by Mr. Howe on the one side and District Attorney Phelps on the other. The Court, as 18 well Known, affirmed the judg- ment of the Court 01 General Sessions, but both Judges Ingraham and Brady, the third member of the Court Peis § Davis, in their written opinions pronounced it, however, a case in which executive clemency might with great propriety be inter- posed. APPLICATION TO GOVERNOR DIX. Upon the state of facts just mentioned Mr. Howe submitted the tacts of the case to Governor Dix. He also submitted a letter trom District Attorney Phelps, stating his concurrence with the recom- mendation of the General Term Judges, and also one of similar purport from ex-District Attorney Stewart, who tried the case. In order to bring the case properly before him Governer Dix suggested that Murphy be again resentenced, and with thts view the prisoner was ordered to be brougnt before the Judges at the reassembling of the Court yes- | terday morning. THE WALWORTH JURY ON HAND, At the meeting of the Court at eleven A. M. yes- terday, Judges Ingraham and Brady promptly took their Seats on the bench, They sent for Judge Davis, the other member of the Court, and the lat- ter Judge at once temporarily suspended proceed. | ings in the Walworth trial, A somewhat singula: | and unusual feature was a request by the jury try- ing young Waiworth for permission to be preseat at the passing of the death sentence, which was readily granted. They at once filed into Court, preceded by Judge Davis and District Attorney Phelps. Meantime Murphy, who is a young man of preposessing face ana bearing, had been chatting in the most pleasant and unconcerned manner imaginable with Mr. Howe, his counsel, MOTION OF SENTENCE BY MR, PHELPS. Judge Ingraham asked if the prisoner was in | Court, and on being answered affirmatively by | Sheri! Brennan Mr. Phelps thereupou arose and | Stated briefly the facts of the case connected with | the arrest, conviction and previous sentence of iw risoner and the subsequent proceedings in | Court. He then said that although he had written | to General Dix recommending a commutation of sentence, it became his duty to move for some day to be fixed for carrying out the affirmance of the Court of the judgment of the Court of General Ses- sions. NG THE DEATH SENTENCE. Murphy requested to rise, and then Judge Ingratiam proceeded to pronounce the death sen- tence; stated that the Court had caretully reviewe his ¢ and while no errors had been commttted at the trial which would justify the reversal oi the | judgment, they had expressed the opinion thut an application should be made tor exec clemency, aud in order that oppertunity | given for’ the Court of such clemency PA they had concluded to designate the sth of next August as | the day for the carrying out of the sentence. | STAY OF PROCEEDINGS, | During the passing of the sent ¢ Murphy stood caimly unmoved, showing clearly that he regarded the whole thing asa mere iormality and nothing ; more. Mr. Sparks, the clerk, next read the death warrant, and at the end he committed to the | custody of Sheriff Brennan, whe transierred him to Deputy Sheriff Stieids, by whom he was at onc | conveyed to his old quarters i the city pri | Scarcely had he got out of the building befere Mr, Howe, with characteristic punctuality, applied to Judge Dauiels, sitting in Supreme Court, Chambers | for astay of proceedings, This was obtained in order that if Governor Dix, in the multiplicity of nis en- gayements, should {ail to give his decision in the | case before the appointed day of exetution, it j could not then possibly take place. There is but little doubt that Murphy will escape the gallows, | and that his sentence will be commmated to impris- onment for life. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. i apa | UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT.

Before Judge Curtis. McDonagh vs. Darrity et al.—The defendant, in conjunction with others, held a mortgage for $32,000 upon the furniture in the Revere House, then kept by one Fowler. Becoming suspicious of the financiai condition of Fowler, Darrity and his associates employed plaintif to foreclose the mortgage, agreeing to pay him, as plaintiff, some seven per cent upon the amount of the saies. De- fendants contended that he was to receive only six recent. It appeared in evidence that one T. J. Joe had @ prior mortgage upon the furni- ture, which, while plaintiff’ was in possession, he foreclosed and sold the property. Plaintiff claimed that he was prevented from toreclosing by the acts of Darrity and his associates, they coming to the conclusion to accept their share of Fowler’s estate, that enterprising publican having been declared bankrupt. Defendants denied that plaintit’ had rendered any services at all, Action on the quantum meruit, Judge Curtis charged the jury that where a party was prevented by the acts of the defendant from carrying out a contract, he was at liberty to regard the same as rescinded and to bring his action damages growig out of the breach of the reement.. In sucn case the measure of damages would be the actual worth of the ser- vices, not exceeding in amount the contract price; that when it was impossible for either tre to per- form the contract, plaintiff was entitled to recover the actual worth of his services, provided he couid show that defendant had been benetited by them; that, under the law of this State, the title abso- lntely vested in the mortgagee upon the maturity of the mortgage, and no subsequent proceedings in bankruptcy could impair it, Jury found for plaintiff in the sum of $703. For plaintiff, D. McAdam; for defendant, General John Cochrane, Effects of Chloride of Lime. ‘Travers et al. vs, McBean.—Plaintiffs stored with defendant a quantity of jute, which, from being placed in the same room with a lot of chloride of lime, became rotten and defective. It appeared in evidence that owing tothe intense heat the lime began to ferment, and bursting the casks in which it was confined, produced the injury. Defendant contended that he notifled plaintiffs to take away the jute as soon as he discovered the effecty of the lime upon it, but plaintiffs neglected to do 40, Plaintifls contended that it was dangerous to life and health to enter the room where the lime was placed, The amount of the storage was paid under protest when the property Waa tlually taken away, and this action was brought for the damage to the Jute. Judge Curtis charged the jury that a warehouse- man Was bound to use only ordinary care, except in cases where he had onstorage goods of a dan- gerous character to other merchandise, in which case he was bound to use extraordinary care; that it was the duty of plaintitts, after they had been notified of the effects of the lime, to take away their property, unless the jury were satisfied that it was absolutely dangerous to life and health for them or their servants to enter the reom where the lime was stored, The jury were to say whether the manner in which the lime was stored estab- lished negligence on part of defendant.

A Daring Highway Robbery—East Side Ruffians Waylaying am Citizen on His Way Home and Robbing Him. The East side rufian is as treacherous asa Mo- doc. An illustration of this fact came to light yes- derday betore Justice Scott at the Essex Market Police Court. On Tuesday morning Mr. John Curis, proprietor of a liquor store at No. 18 North William street, was on his way home, when he was met in Chrystie street by two quondam friends named John Gallagher and Thomas Hastings, The latter saluted Curtis in quite a friendly way. As looked round Hastings suddenly struck Curtis & poweriul blow under the chin, felling him to the sidewalk and causing him to feei for a mo- ment insensible. The two ruftians thep proceeded to plunder their victim. Gallagher, as is alleged, got away with his goid watch and chain, valued at $300, and Hastings, as the complaint says, strove desperately to relieve him of $300 he had in his inside pr t, and of which fact he appeared to have a perfect cognizance. While Gallagher was running down Chrystie street Officer Hearn, of the Tenth precinct, arrested him, he also arrested e two alleged culprits were taken be. jore Justice Scott and held to answer without bail, JEFFERSON MARKET POLICE COURT.

Steimler, Jacob Simon and others are defendants in a number of suits brought against them by members of an organization known as the Cabinet Makers’ Co-operative Association who took deeds from them for lots in Astoria. Orders of arrest were issued against tne defendants on the ground that they made false and fraudulent representations a# to the property, which was burdened by a large mortgage. The plaintiffs claim that the lots burdened by the mortgage are worthless to them, but if the mortgage were re- moved they would be worth $500 each, A motion was made yesterday in the suit of Jacob Ritter (which is a test case) to vacate the order of arrest, the defendants alleging that no representations were made that the property was free irom incumbrance, but simply that the land would be free and clear. If the Court held that such representations were made, they were true at that time, as the mortgage was not incurred until a year aiterwards. Judge Reynolds took the papers and reserved his decision, SPAIN. eee oct Government Order for the Regulatioh of the Foreign Mercantile Marine on Entry and When in Port—What Must Be Done by Mariners and What They Must Not Fail To Do.

LET THERE BE LIGHT. Ww YORK, June 30, 1873. To THe EDITOR OF THE HERALD :— Is there not a city ordinance requiring in every | case where a street has been rendered impassable | or dangerous by excavation some provision for the safety of passengers at night, such as lights, &e.? If so, Why 18 it this law 1s disregarded by the coutractors Who are excavating the Fourth avenue | from Porty-second street to Hariem’ In this ave- nue the street lamps are not lighted, the gas being cut of, and there are no lights or other protection eross the avenue; consequently accidents are of frequent occurrence. On Saturday night & man, unabie to see the danger, waiked off the sidewalk at Highty-first street, aud was precipitated over the rocks into the excavation—a distance of about twenty feet. His cries and groans attracted some men, who succeeded ib pulling him from the track just as a train was passing. He was taken away on a@ stretcher—perhaps to die. Now, sir, if the law is not @ respecter of persons, or if the modern “Colossus of Roads” does not overstride the law, let us have this ordinance eniorced, and let there be lights, at least at every cross street along this yawning Chasin.

We have endeavored to keep the taxation at as low a rate as possible, consistent with proper administration of the affairs'of the city, in view of its rapid growth, and, while the rate of taxa: tion is still high, it appears less than last year, Inform: Hon has been received, though not of an official charac: n signe ¢ rate of ter, that the Deficiency’ bill has bee: v- ernor, which, proving authentic, will require aw addition to the estimates presented to the amount of $315,0W.

Alderman CLANCY moved that the budget be re- ferred to a special committee of ten for report and that 250 copies be printed for the uae of the Board, Alderman Wy.ik asked if the Governor had ed the charter. ‘ne Mayor said he thought not, as he had re- ceived no olticial notification of the fact, Alderman WyLik then oifered a resolution that the Governor be requested to veto the charter, as the citizens of Brooklyn believed that the taxes were already too high. ‘The resolution was laid on the table. After some discussion a motion of Alderman CLANCY to appoint a committee of ten was adopted, The Mayor appointed as such committee Alder- men Clancy, Kopes, McGroarty, Taylor and Rad- mon, Supervisors Fletcher, Johnson, Corrail, Fisher and Norton, The budget was referred to the above committee to revise and report back.

THE EXCISE QUESTION. The Germans Force the Commissioners into Action—A Pretty Good Move—Ex. pected Closing of Low Groggerics on Sundays. The dealers in intoxicating liquors, beer, wine, &c., are just at the present time anxiously watch- ing the movements of the Excise Commissioners with a view relative to keeping liquor stores open on Sunday, The Germans, who are usually pretty ‘oute in all that affects their interests and | Tights, last Sunday week attempted to force mat- | ters to an issue by inviting the new Excise Com- missioners to make a Sunday tour of the gardens and parks where lager and German wines freely flow at all hours of the day and night. This was a bold stroke of policy, in- asmuch as every Commissioner who tasted the javorite drinks ol Fatherland was a witness to the violation of the Excise law. Yet no arrests have been made growing out of this oficial visit, ihe Commissioners were accompanied by some of tne | Aldermen, and the result of the tour is anxiously looked for. To-day at ten A. M. the Commissioners will meet a delegation of Aldermen and other gentlemen at the office of the Excise Board, when they will ex- plain their views upon the subject, It is under- ood that the Commissioners are in favor of closing all the low groggeries of the city where vile | alcoholic concoctions are retailed, and are im favor of the unrestricted sale ol light’ wimes, lager and weiss beers in all gardens and other places where proper order and decorum are observed, and that the tuliest encouragement will be given to the Germans to enjoy their Sunday lager and music | under proper restrictions.
