Decisions—~A Husband’s Liability—Suit to Re- cover Architect's Fees—The General Sessions Calepdar. Awrit of error has been allowed and a citation signed by Judge Blatchford in the case of George Washington Bowen vs. Nelson Chase, known as the celebrated Jume! suit. The case now goes on appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, and the record, which is very voluminous, will be made out in the course of two weeks. In the case of John Whitehead, who had been convicted for sending obscene literature through the matis, counsel for the defendant moved an ar- rest of judgment. After hearing the arguments the Judge reserved his decision, ‘The Supreme Court General Term Judges yester- day appointed Messrs. Charles A. Jackson, William F. Kentzing and Edward Gilbert committee for the examination of applicants for admission to the Bar, and Messrs.

Judge Benedict sat yesterday in the United States Circuit Court, at No. 27 Chambers street, and pro- ceeded with the despatch of crimtnal business, WHE DEFALCATION IN THE ATLANTIC NATIONAL BANK—THE CASE OF FRANK L. TAINTOR. When the above mentioned case was reached on the calendar Mr. Purdy, United States Assistant District At- torney, said he was ready to go to trial with it, Mr. Sherwood, of counsel for Taintor, observed that this surprised him very much, as the District Attorney had served him with notice to the effect that the case would not be called on till the second Monday of the term, He nad not the slightest idea that the case would be called till Wednesday, He would be ready for trial a week trom next Mon- aay, and he asked that the matter be put off ll then. Mr. Purdy remarked that he understood a special plea would be interposed on behalf of the defend- ant. If such a course were to be taken he desired to know it. Ifnot he was ready to go to trial with the case, Mr, Sherwood said the report about a special plea was new to him. They intended to try the case on the main issue. After some {urther conversation between coun- sel on both sides in relation to the case, the trial ‘was set down for Monday, the 28th inst. THE CASE OF OSCAR F, WAINWRIGHT. Mr. Charles Wehle, counsel on behalf of Oscar F. Wainwright, who is indicted for perjury, and is in prison, made a motion for the postponement of the trial, on the ground that important and Material witnesses for the defence resided in West Virginia, and that time should be allowed for their production. After some discussion, the Assistant District Attorney consented to a postponment such as would not throw the case over the present term, as he had a witness for the prosecution, an elderly lady, Who might die at any moment, Judge Benedict said he would put the case down for Monday next, and if the witnesses for the defence were not then present, he would hear a motion for farther adjournment on proof of what steps had been taken to secure their attendance. The Case of Stephen H. Knapp—Alleged Embezzlement in the Post Office. The defendant, Stephen BH. Knapp, had been Superintendent of the Newspaper Department in the Post Office of this city. He is indicted for hav- ing embezzled about $30,000, the property of the government. Counsel on behalf of Mr. Knapp moved to quash the indictment. Mr. Purch said he would save the learned gentie- man considerable trouble by consenting to strk- ing out the ninth, tenth, eleventh and twelfth counts. Counsel on behalf of Knapp then went on to con- sider the other counts, and argued that the inaict- ment should be quashed on the ground that the allegations therein were vague and uncertain. ‘The Judge granted the motion as to four counts and reserved his decision as to the fiftn. RIGHTS OF COLORED CITIZENS. The Cases of Jarrett & Palmer and Wal- lack=—The Management of Theatres a Private Right. The right of the colored race to go into theatres has been some time before the courts. Two grand Juries have dismissed complaints against Palmer & Jarrett and Josh Hart for violating the so-called Civil Rights law of 1873. Yesterday four cases came ap in the Supreme Court, Chambers, before Judge Barrett, againtst Wallack’s Theatre, Mr. A. Oakey Hall moved for a rule obliging the colored plaintiffs to receive unverified answers, and claimed, under a special law of 1854, that in all actions founded upon statutes giving fines and enaities such answers were permitted. He stated ‘hat his clients were advised to take this course to escape annoyance, as well as receive legal protec- on. Ex-Judge Culver opposed, and claimed that this statute was repealed by the Code and that the management must admit or deny on oath whether cluded for color or not. Barrett leaned strongly against him, but took the papers. A similar suit in Albany against Manager Richardson, of the Opera House, resulted in & disagreement of the jury. But our city man- agers have, on strong legal advice and authority both in England and America, a8 was stated on the arguments, claimed and exercised the right to view their theatres as private business places, and exclude whom they please by rejusing to sell tickets and without reference to either biack or white, Heathen Uhinees, or Jim Nyes. And they deny that the Legislature can force them, while managing a rivate business, to conduct the latter according penal statute. It will now be at least a year pads the cases in question come to trial, if they ever do. BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. SUPREME COURT—CHA KBERS. Decision. By Judge Barrett.

Verdict in favor of defendan MARINE COURT—PART 2. A Husband’s Liability. Alexander T, Stewart & Co, vs, Christopber Martin.—This was an action to recover $154 66 of the defendant for a bill of dry goods sold to his wife on the 23d of last May. Mre. Mary A, Martin testified that she was the wife of the defendant and resided at No. 158 Jersey avenue, Jersey City; that on the 16th of lags April her husband aban- doned her, giving her at the time $10, and that he gave her no more money until the Court decreed her $18 a week during the pendency of the suit for adivorce; that she received this amount from the 26th of May up tothe 2ist of August, since which thine she had received nothing from him; that her husband owned a house in Jersey City worth $9,000, one in Harlem worth $8,000, a Central Park lot and thirteen lots in Brooklyn, besides a stand in Washington Market. The articles which she purchased irom the plaintiff, she said, were neces- sary for herself and her child. * The defence was that the articles were not nec- essary, as the term “necessary” is understood in jaw, for the use of the defendant’s wile, it being proved that they lived separately, and that in acase where goods were sold to the wile without the knowledge or consent of the husband he is not lable to pay Jor them, ‘The Court instructed the jary that a husband ts liable for necessary articles furnished to his family if he does not supply them himself with the neces- saries of life, and in this case it was purely a ques- tion of fact for the jury to determine whether the goods Were necessary for the wife and child at that time; and if they found that they were the plainuiff was entitled to recover such amount as the jury saw fit to give him, with interest from the time the goods were sold, The jury returned a verdict for the plaintiils for the jul) amount claimed, COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. A Dishonest Servant Sent to the State Prison for Five Years. Before Recorder Hackett, In this Court yesterday Maria Bauer, against whom were four charges of grand larceny, pleaded guilty to one indictment, which set forth that on the 10th of May she stole a silk dress and sack and one or two articles of jewelry, the aggregate value ol which was $40, Sne was éngaged as a servant by Ferdinand Poock, of No. 213 Bowery, and, after re- maining one day, stole the things and jet without eye any notice, She was sent to the State Tison for five years. Asaulting an Officer. Martin Callahan, who, on the 19th of September, struck Officer O'Halloran with an iron bar, pleaded guilty to assault and battery. One year in the Penitentiary was the punishment inflicted by the Recorder. Petit Larceny. John Wilson and James Williams pleaded guilty to petit larceny. The allegation was that on the 2d inst. they stole clothing valued at $45, the prop- erty of Leonard Kromer. They were sent to the Penitentiary for six months, Acquittals. Ferdinand Stritmatter, a youth, was tried upon acharge of acting in complicity with two boys named Green and Burke in attempting to break into the liquor store of John Howard, No. 43 Spring street, on the 24th of September last. The evidence showed that the accused was near his own house at the time and that he was an employé in the St. Nicholas Hotel. A verdict of “not guilty” was ren- dered by the darts John Kane and John Dineen were also acquitted oO! a charge oi grand larceny, preferred by Patrick Pesnng: se alleged that on ae night of ae i4th of September the prisoners gyole $100 from his per- son. Te was ahowh fern all doubt that the coni- plainant had been drinking for hours during the evening, and although the prisoners were in com- pany with him most of the time he told a respect- able witness that he did not believe that Kane and Dineen stole the money, William Madden, who was jointly indicted with William Burke for assaulting Henry Rice on the 1st of June and stabbing him witn a knife, was found Not guilty. Burke was convictea some month ago. Madden was charged by Kice at the time with handing a knife to Burke, but when he (Burke) went on the stand he said he might be mistaken about that, His Honor intimated. to the jury that the complainant had been tampered with. Charles Moore Bailed in $5,000. It will be remembered that over a year ago Charles Moore was tried and convicted of swindling an emigrant out of $900 in gold by means of what is known as “the beit game.'’’ The case was appealed, and the Court of Appeals has reversed the judgment. Yesterday Moore was bailed in the sum of $5,000, Charles Schulz, of 116 Greenwich street, became his boudsman. As the complaining witness was a German emigrant and has lett for parts unknown, it is not probable that Moore will be retried, corder grant ticket swindling establishments down town ; by sending McDermott, Moore’ and others to the 8 Prison.

Fatal Affray on Shipboard=—Trial of Oscar Hocliander for Killi: Olsen—Convicted of Mansi: the Third Degree and Sent to the State Prison for Two Years and Six Months. Before Judge Gilbert, Oscar Hoeliander, a Norwegian sailor, was placed on trial yesterday morning for Killing a shipmate, Gustave Olsen, on board the Norwegian bark Alli- ance, at the Atlantic Dock, on the 13th of Septem- ber jast. The men had been on a@ spree in New York, and on returning to the vessel became in- volved in a quarrel with each other, during which the prisoner stabbed Oisen. The injured man died a few days thereafter, Hoeliander is unable to speak the English lan- guage. He is about twenty-two years of age, small in stature and of @ not very prepossessing appear- ance. He was defended by Mr. Reymert, and Dis- trict Attorney Britton appeared for the people. A jury was secured with little or no troubie, and, ‘after the opening 01 the District Attorney, the ex-: amination of witnesses was proceeded with, ‘The story of the tragedy is best told in the testi- mony of Anthon Everson, another satior on board the vessel, who said :— I knew Olsen, the deceased; we wore shipmates; the Alhance came to this country from Southampton, Sng. land; Olsen and Ll shipped in Norway on the isth of April. the vesse! was a Norwegian vessel; Hoeliander slipped before I did; I was on board the vessel the night Hoeiiander was stabbed; Olsen was not on shore that night; Hoeliander caine on board about hall-past ten o'clook, with the steward and Christian; Olsen tolt Hoelander to be quiet, 1 was in 5 Hoeliander talked aw hil ther went to his berth and lay down; e Was a dispute between Christa ristiay spoke very loud and made Olsen mar ec 7 and told Christian to be quiet and sat down on tiny chest; the steward came over again to Christian; Hoeliander got up to defend him: T did not see the steward strike Christian, buthe put hie fist in his face and hit Olsen again he won!

SUPREME COURT—SPECIAL TERM. Brooklyn’s Bond Robbery—A Suit Com- menced Against Kessler’s Property. Before Judge Gilbert, Corporation Counsel DeWitt, of Brooklyn, yes- terday commenced a suit against the property of Rudolph Kessler, charged with stealing city bonds out of the Comptrolier’s oMce, and, on the am- Gavits in the case, Justice Gilbert granted an at- tachment against Kessler’s bank account in the First National Bank, When the Comptroller first accused Kessler of stealing the bonds, Kessler offered to deposit $3,000 with the Comptroller until the latter could satisfy himself of Kessier’s inno- cence, Mr. Schroeder refused to accept the gre osition, although he could have protected the in- terest Of the city to thatamouni at least. Now, however, he has sued out an_ attach- ment jt the property, but too late to. recover much out of it. On Mon- day morning Jast Mr. P. Keady, Mr. Kessler’s counsel, presented a check for $1,800 at the bank, and it was paid in full and subsequently handed over to Mr, Kessler, who gave a receipt therefor. Mr. Kessler, 1t appears, commenced an account in that bank on the 3d of July last, when he deposited the sum of $4,271 48. He also deposited $1,715 on the 2d inst., and on the 4th inst. he drew the check for $1,800, which he paid to his counsel, Mr. Keady. Mr, Kessler claims that his bank account is ali right, and eres he presented a check for $601 52, the balance remaining. The Sherift’s offi. cer arrived soon after with an attachment against Mr. Kessler’s bank account, but it will be seen the city authorities were to late. CITY COURT—SPECIAL TERM. The Havana Bank Robbery—Serious Charge Against the Spanish Consul. Before Judge McCue, On the 3d of August last Maria Urrach de Luca was arrested, In company with two Spaniards, who are alleged to have been implicated in the robbery of the Commercial Pank of Havana. The arrest was made down the bay, aboard the steamer City of Mexico, Maria charges that the Spanish Consul and the officers accompanying him searched her baggage and took from her some diamond jewelry and money, amounting to $19,000, which she has not since recovered, All the prisoners were brought to Brooklyn, and subsequently Maria was ajscharged by Judge McCue. She now seeks to recover the property, and the Court has issued an order for the Consul to show cause why it should not be returned. The following affidavit has been made by Maria touching her case. City of Brooklyn, County of Kings ss—Maria Urrach de Luca, being duly sworn, deposes and says:—That, on the 29th day of July, 187%, she sailed trom Havana for New York on the steam: hip City of Mexico, having previously procured trom the authorities a passport in jegal form, und having personally engaged and paid for her passage. ‘That, on arrival at Quarantine on the 3d day of August, 1873, several men, to her unknown, but whom she has since ascertained to bé one Manuel ‘Suarez, an employe ot the Spanish Consul at New York, and some police officers or detective agents, arrested the defendant and conveyed her to prison, where she was detained until the 6th day of August, on which day she was bi rouRit before the Hon. Alexander McCue, City vudge, id by him ordered to be discharged, Deponent turther ys that at the time of making such arrest said Suarez and the officers seageeitinn he A him searched deponent’s baggage, and also searched her person, and took trom her. and have since kept and still keep trom her, the fol- lowing property: of the deponent:— LA t to the order of this deponent for $17,000, nited States currency to the amount ot $1,225. %. United States gold coin to the amount of $371 £ One locket sgt with diamonds. 5. One diamond ring. 6 Ove diamond cross. 7. One enamelled watch. That when deponen: Fpl discharged from arrest, she expected the return Of hér said property, as she had been told that it would be restored to her immediately; that she has waited until pow, and her property has not been restore@ to her, and she prays that its restitution may be grdered. Devonens further says that she ts entirely un- equainted with the English language, and that the on!y interpreter furnished her was one ‘employed by (ae Spanish Consul, Deponent further says that she hasbeen this day intormed that acertain document which she was made to sign on the 4thday of August, 1873, while in ac tual custody, and atthe signing of which Were present the Spanish Consul and one or two of his clerks, together with several police officers, was a surrender o property; that the document which deponent signed was stated Uy the Spanish Consul to be an inventory of the property taken from her, and that said Consul read, or pretended to read, the said document to this deponent in the Spanish language, and, in so reading it, represented it as an inventory, and nothing more. Deponent has been informed that such document was an assignment to said Spanish Consul of all the property atoresaid and an advnission that such property was the proceeds of a robbery committed on the Bank of Commerce of Havana. Leponent emphatically denies that any such assignment or admission was ever signed by her with knowledve. and avers tha! her signature thereto was obtained by fraud and under duress, the representation being made to her that the same was an inventory of the Property which had been taken froin her and which would be restored to her: that said property did truly and legutly bel ng to this deponent, and was in no way the proce ds of any robbery. Her MARIA x URRACH DE LUCA mi: ar! Sworn to this Ist day of Cctober, 1873, before me—C. L. Burnet, Novary Public, Kings county. The case was belore Judge McCune yesterday. when General Craig, for the defence, submitted an amMicavit of the Consul, setting iorth that Maria admitted that the property was # part of the pro- ceeds 0; the Re that her own property had been restored to he! that the assignment was fully explained to ber, and that there was no fraud or deceit about it. Generali Craig contended that the Consul had merely done his duty, and charac- terized the charges against him as entirely un- jJounaed and scandalous in the extreme. Judge McCue will try the claim on the 16th inst., to which date the case was adjourned. COURT OF APPEALS CALENDAR. ALBANY, N.

The Challenge to the Jury Array of De- fendant’s Counsel Sustained. JUDGE DAVIS’ DECISION. Counsel Withdraw the Challenge and Announce Their Desire to Proceed with the Trial. Empanelling the Jury---Six Jurors Obtained. INCIDENTS IN COURT. The proceedings in the Stokes’ case yesterday were rather remarkable in these days of dilatory action im courts of law for the progress made in obtaining a jury. This, no doubt, was due to the disposition evinced by the counsel! for the defence to imterpose no technical objections to a fair, speedy and impartial trial of their unfortunate client. Two years have now nearly elapsed since the crime with which he stands charged was com- mitted, and though no palliation or extenuation arises therefrom, yet the fact of prison sufferings so long endured and that hope deferred which maketh the heart sick, so long, no doubt, the main- stay of Stokes’ existence, is sufficient incentive to risk the pending issue to as short a trial as possi- ble, It was probably from this feeling on the part of Stokes and his nearest friends and advisers that his counse) urged no more technical objections to jurors yesterday, ana owing to which SIX JURORS WERE SWORN ON THE TRIAL, At the adjournment of the Court Judge Davis stated, in the course of his replies to the remarks of defendant’s counsel in urging their objections on the previous day to the jury panel, that he was satisfied that the defence intended to proceed on the trial of the case in good faith and WITH AN HONEST INTENTION to rest their cause upon such a defence as they could establish, The prosecation—Mr. District Attorney Phelps leading—have thus far shown no disposition to press their side of the case beyond the limits which a just and conscientious sense o: public duty demands, and hence the public may rest satisfied tat the third trial of Stokes for the murder of James Fisk, while it may not occupy so much of the time of the Court as did the two tor- tially and strenuously prosecuted and defended as the others, It will be seen from the subjoined report of the roceedings that Judge Davis sustained the chal- lenge of defendant's counsel to the jury array, Here was an important point gained by the de- fence, if delay had been the object sought for, in presenting the challenge. On vhe conclusion ot the udge’s decision, however, counsel lor Stokes arose and, in a iew remarks explanatory of their action on the question, withdrew the challenge, with the permission of the Court, and then stated that they were ready to proceed with the case, ‘The empanelling of a jury was then proceeded with. The only incident of public interest in this connection was the eliciting of the fact froma juror on the witness stand, when questioned as to is avallability to serve on the jury, that a person had approached him, knowing him to have been summoned, and sought to entice him into @ conversation on e subject, but which he had evaded, The juror was not sworn, and the Court ordered @ summons to issue against the party to bring him before the Court and show cause why he should not be punished ior con- tempt. The prisoner and his relatives and friends were early in Court. Counsel on both side were also up to time, aud punctually at hall-past ten o'clock A. M. Judge Davis took his seat on the bench. The Proceedings. THE CHALLENGE TO THE ARRAY SUSTAINED—JUDGE DAVIS’ OPINION. Judge Davis on taking his seat on the bench at once proceeded to deliver nis decision on the point raised on the previous day as to the legality of the jury array. Judge Davis said: I have given the challenge interposed by the defendant as full an examination as time has permitted. Lregret y the condition of my eyes is such thyt | have not been able to put my views on paper. rhe staiute régd- lating the drawing of jurors for the city and county of New York puts the entire. prelimina hinery Jn the hands ot a single officer, who is clothed with very large and to @ great extent judicial powers over that subject. On him is conferred the examination of persons who usually constitute a jury list of the county, and to him is given alone the power to decide upon qualifications, upon the sufficiency of their excuses and ujon their general exemption, until he shall have eliminated trom the general list, which he enters in his book in the first place, and have reached @ conclusion as to a list ultimately. in_pursu- ance ot the statute, to be filed by him. He is an officer, as T have said, clothed with quasi-judicial powers, in the ex- ercise of which he is subjectto no control by Court or any other authority, except the Legislature, unless he be guilty of such violation of official duty as’mav subject him, in certain cases, to indictment and punishment under the statute. Now, if the question presented here related to the propriety of his selection of a list of jurors Fes any qdestion hing the qualification of those “whose names be had inciuded in that ist or the right or Propriety. of excluding any or of including any he should have excluded from the list, there can be no doubt that there would be no ground for challenge to the array or any challenge touching the persons placed upon the poll ior a jury tor this or any other Court. These are the points which seem to have been decided in the cases to which my at- tention Las been called, as tor instance the Jewett case. Acase stronger on some points, Judge Davis said, was the case of the Queen vs O'Connell. In that it was charged that some sixty. names had been removed trom the list. If that case stood alone he would be bound, though not agreeing with its reasons, to sustain the demurrer. But in a case in the Second district, the People vs. McCloskey @ Parker, 303), he found a case more binding on him. In’ that case it was charged that some ‘unauthorized person had Placed six names in the jury, box, and tn that case, hough he himself thought the Court might have avoided the objection, by excluding the antruded jurors the Gen- eral Terin held that when. the objection was to the mode in which the jury list was inade up it should be taken b challenge to the array. This was ip direct conflict with the case of The Queen vs. O'Connell, and was binding on him. he statute prescribed the duties of the Commis- sioner of Jurors. je was to enter ina book the names of all persons ascertained by him from any source—the directory, private intormation, or other ‘sources—sup- see to be qualified tor jury duty. Thi E be made up from such examination He was to | decide who on this book was a proper and fit juror. hat was a work of labor and time, and if at any point o' | Tm work of lab dt a if at +4 int of time the exigencies ot the Courts demanded he had a list prepared, great or small | proper for him file was the er iat but this elude the work of the Court or the | The Commissioner, from time to time, | gressed, might add'to the jury box by But the averment of the challenge to be taken as true for this purpose was different, and was that the Commiis- | sioner of Jurors had completed a general list of com- | petent jurors, and from that selected a smaller list, ex- cluding from it certain classess. It that were true and thatit wasto the prejudice of the prisoner it was good ground for sustaining the challenge. In Friery’s case the gist of the decision was that a mere omission in the working machinery was no grotnd of challenge unless it amounted to ® perversion of such machinery or was w ot prejudice of the {ph alg It in thatcase. the challenge had alleged that the work- ing of the machinery in the manner stated in the chal- lenge haa produced that actual prejudice to the accused, the challenge would have been mais perly sustained. In this case, continued Judge Davis, that allegation is cou- tained, The act of the Commissioner in selecting from what is charged to have been a completed list « small number—to Wit, 2,000 out of 20,000 or 30 nd putting | thac smaller number in, is charged in this challenge to have been done with intent to prejudice the accused. Assuming that to be true, as the demurrer does aasume m of opinion that ine demurrer should be over- 1 that will leave to the District Attorney, if e may'be Be oe — to answer over in such form as h advised. Mr, Dos Passos—Although, may it please Your Honor, the challenge to the array was interposed by the counsel for the detendant in perfect good faith and upon the as- sumption which has been sustained by the learned opin. jon Your Honor deli <i, that the grounds which they laid down in the lenge were correct in prin- ciple, yet in view of the delay and contusion which may ensue trom the sustaining of this challenge, and from thi desire and anxiety of the prisoner as well as his counse! that this case shall be proceeded with at once, 1 am instructed by my learned jate f Y i 2 cated upon informatio: tome in person by the gentleman who holds the office of Commissioner of Jurofs, Yet, from facts which hnve | come to our knowledge since the argument of this chal. | lenge, we believe that there was no completed list of jurors in the office, and that the Commissioner referred ‘to the fact that there were between 20,000 and 30,000 per- sons Who Were on his list tor jury duty. He referred to those contained on his register, not that completed list which is intended to be embraced and which is under- stood by the challenge to the array, We, therefore, it Your Honor consents, withdraw the challenge. Mr. Tremain added that he had, since the adjourn- ment of the Court, a long conversation with Mr. Dougtas Taylor, and had then asceriained that the book which they hil before suppposed to be the perfected list was really the mere collection of names irom which to make lie any case they should have withdrawn this chal- en J PI ING A JURY, e pro Of getting a jury was then entered on, ‘The first called was Daniel D. Orrell, reai estate broker, of No, 337 Fifth avenue, He has re- sided in the city for over Wenty-five years, At the time of the ey he read the papers and formed an opinion, but he believed that he could be nn solely by the evidence given, ‘The Court ordered an order to issue to James H.

Mr, Drake had an opinion which made ee - capable. but the third man called, Hoc aon tae lied, Thomas White ht bi i Bartholomew, of it Fiity-seventh stree! an elderly Crete inly fair-minded, thou; ‘f confessing to a slig! was accepted at twenty- five minutes past A Was 80 philosophical that Jacob Wollgapg Kae mer trials, will nevertheless be as ably, impar- | he was excused by both sides, Samuel Abrahams’ opinions were too settied, and Mr. Loomis Ballard had talked too Recently about the case, Two jurors were discarded and then Joseph Hauck, of 32 avenue A, was called, During his ex- amination the Court took a recess, and immedi- ately aiter recess he was accepted as second juror. Evan 5. Hoopes was the next one to pass and was sworn in as third juror, Both this and the Jast joror had hitherto escaped jury duty. George Wright Alston said the opinion he had expressed was that Stokes ought not to be banged, He, however, was quite clear that he could, not- withstanding his expression of opinion, act iairl; | and impartially. He passed the principal chal- lange, but was rejected on the challenge to the favor. Edward Sterting Calhoun, wholesale saddler, the fifteenth called, Was sworn in as fourth juror, Jacob Metz, clotbier, the twenty-lirst man called was sworn ip as fifth juror. Lemuel Heyward, of No, 229 West Forty-fourth street the twenty-fourth man called, though he had expressed the opinion Stokes ought to be hanged, passed both ctiallenges, but was stopped by the prisoner’s first peremptory challenge. Joseph W. Wentworth, twenty-sixth man, had expressed an C1 ge that if the prisoner was guilty he should be punished, if innocent ais- charged, He supposed he had formed some opt jon at the time of the occurrence, but didn’t re- member what. Challenged peremptorily. Charies G. Peters, the thirty-first man answering, me accepted as sixth juror at five minutes past four. During the day thirty-six jurors in all were called, thirty-one answered. Nine passed the ordeal of challenge for principal cause and to the lavor, butof these one was peremptorily chal- lenged by the prosecution and two by the defence. ‘rhe two who did not answer were each fined $50. This, with three excused, left but ten in the box, and the Court ordered a new pave! for to-day. It was ten minutes past four o’clock when the sixth juror was obtained. There was a general Jook of satisfaction on the part of counsel, the Judge, and everybody in fact at this successial crowning of the day’s protracted session. It was evidently a much better result than was antici- pated, and instead of tne several days which it Was supposed must necessarily be consumed in avant jury, there is now strongly confident hope of winding up to-day this laboriously monot- onous preliminary procedure. Judge Davis asked Mr. Sparks, the Clerk, how many names still remainea in the panel, and on being answered that there were only some dozen names in the box, ordered an additional panel of one hundred names to be prepared for this morning. ‘the Judge then, after imposing 4 fine of $60 each on two jurors who had failed to attend, directed officers to be sworn to accom- pany the jurors already accepted to their respective houses and remain with them till their return this morning to court. He told the six jurors that, while he desired to submit them to as little persona! inconvenience as possible, and, wuile having the strongest confidence in their individual integrity, he ielt it his duty totake this course and prevent the ap- proach oj any parties aiming in aby way to in- Huence their final judgment in the case. After a lew further words of counsel to the jurors and ex- Janation of the serious trust committed to them ¢ ordered the Court to be adjourned till ten o'clock this snotinys The prisoner Stokes, having exchanged a few parting words with fis counsel and bidding goodby to his father and brother, who had remained all day in Court, was taken by a deputy sheriff back to his quarters m the City Prison. On his departure the large crowd, including quite a number 0: ladies, Who had been in attendance, filed their way out the court room. CATHOLIC TOTAL ABS£INENCE UNION. ihe Ps An Interesting Session Yesterday—A Telé= gram of Sympathy Sent to His Holiness the Pope—An Address of Welcome to the Catholics of Ircland—Election of Officers. ‘Tye Catholic Total Abstinence Union met again yesterday morning in Irving Hail, Rev. James McDevitt, of St. Matthews’ church, Washington, in the chair. Mr. Benedict J. O'Driscoll acted as secretary. There was a very large attendance, and a great deal of interesting business was trans- acted. The following telegram was directed to be sent to the Pope :— The Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America in convention, greet your holiness and beg your blessing.” Rey. Father Ireland read AN ADDRESS TO HIS HOLINESS the Pope, expressive of the sincere sympathy of the Union with him in his severe trials. The proceedings of the Board of Government at Philadelphia last year and at New York this year were contirmed, The Treasurer's report was read, showing that the unton numbered 255 societies ana 000 mem- bers, and that there was a balance of $565 87. The Committee on Resolutions reported a series of resolutions expressing sympathy with his Holi- ness the Pope, advising the formation o! cadet societies, recommending attendance at the holy communion {our times @ year, an’ recognizing the dmirable seryiceg of Kev. Father Burke. The ‘esolutions Were adopted. ‘A resolution was passed to hold a session of the Union at the grand centennial ceiebration in Phila- delphia in 1576, and TO ERECT A FOUNTAIN in Fairmount Park to commemorate the da, The Convention then adjourned till naif past {WS o’clock 1m the afternoon. In the afternoon session the Rev. Fatner Weish, of Hartford, read an ad- dress to the Catholics of Ireland and the United States, expressing the hope that they wouid plant the flag of temperance in every Catholic bome. Mr. BERNARD MURRAY, Of Philadelphia, read an address to the Irish Catholics, extending to them @ hearty greeting and speaking of the advances made in Ireland in the work ot reform. The address was REFERRED BACK TO THE COMMITTEE for correction, Mr. O'Driscoll being added to the committee, The Committee on Constitutional Amendments submitted their report. The first section, exciud- ing all societies who did not belong to some local union, gave rise to considerable debate. Mr. W. N. O’Brien, of Pennsylvania, protested against the new section, because unions were apt to be tyrannical. This section excludes the Young ien’s Society of St. James, as they with- drew from the local unions. Mr. Law- rence J. Goulding, the representative of the society, wanted to protest, but was unable to do so in consequence of the cries for the “previons quegyiop.” The section was subsequently amended 80 a8 to give the Society a chance to join the local union, Mr. Goulding protesting that the Union had no right to exciude the Society after having admitted it on the day before. The committee for dratting an address to the Catholics of Ireland presented a new address of fraternal greeting, which was adopted. Rev. Father IRELAND reported the address to the ae oe asking his blessing, which was lopted. Father ByRNF, of Trenton, N. J., was unani- mously elected President for the ensuing year. ai Convensan remained in session until mid- night. THE NATIONAL GAME. A Fine Amateur Contest—The Chelscas Beaten by the Nameless. From 500 to 600 people assembled on the Prospect Park Parade Ground yesterday afternoon to wit- ness the game between the Nameless Club, of Brooklyn, and the Chelsea Club, of Williamsburg. The latter club has, for some time past, been con- sidered the finest amateur organization in this vicinity, possessing as it does a remarkably strong pitcher. The Nameless party have recently secured the services of one of the swiitest pitchers, and as | they always nad a fine flelding nine, they are now in condition to successiully cope with anything short of a professional nine, The game yesterday opened well for the Name- | Jess, their opponents failing to hit Valentine for a single base until the filth inning. In the third inning, however, they got in 2 runs on calied balls. In the fourth inning the Nameless took the = by scoring S runs and from this to the close Of the contest led the Williamsburgers with ease, Rule’s pitching did not seem to bother the Name- legs boys to any great extent, but Valentine's swift delivery was aitogether too mucn for the Chelseas, Grierson, Brasher, Harmon and Nelson ed their respective peanane in most penatifaPatpie, as did also Thetford, @ running fly catch 0b: being especially praiseworthy, Meteair did t best flelding for the Cheiseas, The umpiring was very good and gave universal le The following is the score: cei W.
