/ 8 “THE COURTS. ‘Important Decision on the Decla- ration of Dividends. ———- Mortgage Securities and the Usury Laws. Purchase and Conveyance of City Property. In Common Pleas, Chambers, before Jadge Loew, | yesterday, Henry Wehie, counsel for Adolph ‘Neuendorf, proprietor and manager of the Terrace Garden Theatre, in Fifty-ninua street, near Third avenue, made application for an injunction to re- wtrain the Police Commissioners and Captain Gun- ner, o/ the Fifty-ninth street police station, from imteriering in any way with the musical and dramatic entertainments given at that garden on Sundays. Judge Loew granted a temporary in- Junction to the 6th of July, when arguments will be heard on the question of making the injunction ‘perpetual. Juage Blatchford, in the United States Circuit Wourt, yesterday decided to remand Cari Valentin to the custody of the Marshal, Bustaining the decision of United States Commissioner White, who held the pris- ‘oper jor extradition, Valentin was brought ‘wp on a writ of habeas corpus and certiorari. He is charged with forging the name of Bischof & Co., 4m Berlin, Prussia, to bills of exchange for the amount of $50,000, The prisoner will be sent back ‘to Prussia for trial. A young colored man, named Jacob Allen, ap- ‘peared before United States Commissioner Shields yesterday and made complaint against the law firm of Andrews & Smith. He alleges that he em- ployed them to bring suit against the owner of the schooner D. 8. Miller for wages as sailor, and that, Shaving recovered the money, they now refuse to pay itoverto him. ‘Tne amount due he claims to be $37. He was advised at the Commussioner’s office that the proper course was to bring suit, and “he accordingly proceeded to the Marine Court to procure summons against the partes. SUIT AS TO DECLARATION OF Dy: IDENDS. ' Some important points as to the declaration of @ividends were decided yesterday by Judge Van ‘Worst in @ suit tried before him at Supreme Court, Circuit, Part 3. The Board of Directors of the Wewicnawanich Company voted, at a meeting held on January 25, 1873, that a dividend of four per cent be declared, payable that day, and that @uother dividend of tour per cent be declared, payable at option by the company’s agent A question arose, under this declaration of div- ddends, between Charles E. Hill ana other parties, as to which was entitled to such dividends, In his opmion Judge Van Vorst says that the declar- ation of both dividends was absolute; that the dividends thus to be paid were to be paid out of tue property and assets Of the corporation; that they ‘were payable to the parsons Who owned stock on the day the same were deciared, and that it would peem. just to regard stockholders Who were such on the day of the declaration of the divicend as the persons who shouid receive it, and that any other construction would put it in the power of the person upon whom the option was cast to fix the day of payment so that he might act with ad- vantage to himself by purchasing stock at a price depreciated through such postponement. As on the day of the declaration of the dividend the jaintiff was not the legal owner of any stock, but e scrip for his shares having been pledged to the Park Bank, he hoids that the latter had legal title ‘Mo the stock and to the dividend declared on Janu- ery 25, 1878. There are other complications, bat the @bove is the only point of public interest, IMPORTANT DECISION UNDER THE USURY LAWS. Tn the suit of Dunkelstiel vs. Franklin, tried be- Fore Judge Donohue, being an action to foreclose ® mortgage, Judge Donohue yesterday rendered Bhe jollowing decision:—The defendant sets np that ‘the mortgage was obtained ‘rom her by jraud and hac no valid inception in the hands of the mort- waee, which I find istrue. The mortgagee sold the mortgage to the piaintiff at a discount of some Swelve per cent. At the time of this sale plaintift @ade no inquiries of defendant as to the validity Df the mortgage, but required a certificate of its being a valid and bona fde document. A state- ment of this kind was obtained from defendant by frand, and the paper in addition, on its face, on the facte pot disputed, bears evidence of iraud. It urports to be signed by a subscribing witness, no did not see defendant sign it. The piaintift took the certificate, the ialsity of which 18 fully roved, and relies on it to estop the defendant {rom er defence. I think, under the authority of Wil- cox vs. Howell, 44 N. Y., 398, it is not summ- cient, That case reviews the whole ques tion, and it is hardiy worth while to reconsider the cases here. The mortgage in the ands of the mortgagee had no validity, and ldo Ot think it has in the hands of the plaintiff. ‘The argument is pressed that the defeat of the Piaintit will destroy contidence in this class of securities. If that would be the effect of the dect- sion tt would be better than to allow such acts @ those to deprive parties situated as to this defendant of their rights. But I differ with plain- | tiff in tne argument. It will compe! a little more care in ascertaining whet are the facts on which rtles are dealing. There was no want of time. ttle had to be looked into, and yet plaintiff could not take the trouble to see the party whose prop- erty he seeks to hold and ask her if the mortgage ‘war valid. The transaction looks to me like an in- tentional effort to know nothing and rely on a Statement obtained no matter how. Complaint ismissed. J. W. Gerard for plaintiff and Dudley Field for | @efenaant, PROPERTY PURCHASED FROM THE CITY. peewee ‘Thomas Gearty in 1867 purchased from the city a Jot op the southwest corner of Third avenue and 125th street, paying ten per cent on the purchase gnd the auctioneer’s fees, making $910 ip all. | From that time up to the present the city has faj'ed to make a conveyance o! the same, notwith- standing his frequent applicauon jor adjustment and transfer oi the title deed. Mr. Gearty there- fore brought a snit against the city demanding judgment ior the sum he has paid, with interest, together with the costs of the action. On behalf of the city it isset up that the plaintiff fatled to fulfil his part of the contract and for this reason the transier of the title has not peen made. Judge Van Vorst, who tried the case, held that tne Plaintiff nust pay up the balance of the purchase money, logether with the taxes and assessments wiice the date of the pu hase, BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS.

A CAUTION TO WIFE BEATERS. A Son Defends His Mother and fs Com- plimented by the Judge. Every romance has its reality and every reality its romance, as the following will show:—John Horan went to the bar of the Tombs yesterday morning to make a charge of Jelonious assault and battery against his son William, a youth aged twenty years. Mr. Horan’s head gave proof that he had been roughly handled. Both of nis eyes were black and his forehead was cut, He told the Judge with much deliberation that his son, at whom he looked now and then with a sort of sar- donic grin, had beaten him most unmercilully, without provocation, William looked so quiet and decent that the Judge called him up to tell what he had to say. William modestly stepped up to the desk and was at first inclined to say nothing, but suddenly @ thought struck him and he said, “If I jet myself be brought to jail she will not be safe."”_ “Who will not be saie?” asked the NEW YORK HERALD, TUESDAY, JUNE 80, 1874.—TRIPLE SHEET.

A very remarkable case of kidnapping came within the cognizance of the Brooklyn police yes- Judge. “My mother,” said William, tm a very low tone, as he looked towards his father.

District Attorney Phelps opposed the motion, He saw no reason why the case saould not pro- ceed Without further delay. ‘The Recorder denied the application, observing that he saw Do reason why a man who committed murder one day should not be tried the next, and that the final penalty ought to be enforced within a month. Counsel renewed his motion for a few days’ de- lay, affirming, with great earnestness, bis beltef that be could show Gill was in such @ state of mind by reason of continuous intoxication as to be unable to form that cool, premeditateu intent which the revised law of homicide requires to se- cure a conviction for murder in the first degree. The Recorder, with the understanding that coun- | sel would be ready on Weanesday next, permiitea the trial to be postponed till then. It ls understood that the counsel profferred to the , District Attorney a piea of murder in the second de- | gree, out the prosecuting officer did not fee: autnor- ized to uccept the minor piea of homicide.

James Gibney pleaded guilty to an attempt at grand larceny, the allegation agamst him being that on the 20th of this montn he stole a gola watch and chain, worth $100, belonging to Melvilie | Brown. One year’s imprisonment in the Peniten- | tary was the judgment o! the Court.

JEFFERSON MABKET POLICE OOURT. The Bank Burglar Before Judge Murray. henry Morgap, Charles Sanborn and John Simpson were escorted to the court room yester- | day morning by Officers Keller, Burns and Aiken, | of the Sixteenth precinct, together with Captain Cherry. Saturday morning charged with complicity in the attempted burglary on the New York County Bank, | corner of Eighth avenue and Fourteenth street. It | was thought that the examination would take place yesterday afternoon, but, on the application member anything about the occurrence of the | | business transacted was Of a routine character, They are the individuals arrested on | of Counsellor Hummeli, who appeared for the pris- | oners, it was adjourned by Judge Murray until to- day. The depositions of Richard H. Bull, President of the Savings Bank, and of the officers making tne | arrest were taken, and the prisoners committed temporarily to the Jefferson Market Prison to | await the /urther disposition of the case. | Yesterday morning a patrolman stationed at | the Thirty-fourth street ferry, East River, saw “Jimmy” Gilmore, one of those who ate | tempted s0 systematically torob the bank. He | was walking towards First avenue from the | ferry when the officer first noticed him and | times last evening by an unknown man who made walked rapidly alter him, with the in- | tention of getting bis hard on his shouider before attracting his attention. | This mode of proceeding was the more necessary because the oflicer is an old man and would have 0 chance, as the sequel will prove, of running down Gilmore, whose feetness of foot and agility in climbing Jences proved of such good advan- tage on the night of tne arrest of his “pals.” Un- fortunately 1or the future fame of the officer, Jimmy saw him too soon, and, like a eer, he turned the corner of First avenue, up which he | ran until he got to Thirty-seventh sureet. At this point the officer was about three blocks behind, and could only give the alarm to other police- men as he ran, in the bringing some of them to his assistance. It does not appear whether he succeeded or not; but at any rate Gilmore, who turned up Thirty-seventh street, allowed “‘no grass to grow under his fee” till he reached Second avenue. A car Was passing at the moment and he jumped upon it, and that Was the last glimpse his pursuer got of him, Not tu least trace bas been found of him since, though it may be easily understood how diligently the uptown police are seeking for him. It is sup- \ ned. that Gilmore has been conceaied on the ong Ishi shore since the attempted robbery, apd had come to this city yesterday probably with the intention of leaving it by some other route. | Officer Shaw’s Case Again Postponed. | The case of OMcer Wiliam Shaw, of the Twenti- ‘eth preeinct, charged with robbing James McKenna, was to have come up yesterday for ex- amination before Judge Morgan. Some twelve or filteen Witnesses were present on behalf of the officer, subpeenaed by his counsel, Mr. Goldey; among them three police captains under whom he | had served, AsJudge Morgan was not present, Jndge Murray adjourned the bearing until Wednes- day next, at three o'clock. | PIPTYSEVENTH STREET POLICE COURT. hope ol Surrendered by His Bondsman.

Resolved, That the clerk be directed to forward this and to notify the public b, talae of bald cars | Notice to the horse railroad companies referred to. An amendment was moved by Alderman Howel to the effect that no lady be allowed to carry “‘poodies” in her lap. (Laughter.) The resola- tions were referred to the Committee on Rail- Toads. A communication was received from the Board of Elecuons aechng jorth that last session a law was passed providing for the alteration of the election districts, Tue Aldermen were notified to | call at the office of the Board of Elections and ex- anne the districts that have been laid out. Placed on file. ‘A communication was received from the Corpo- ration Counsel, in answer to a resolution of the | Boara calling upon nim for an opinion as to the power of the “Common Council to prohibit or regulate the keeping of & home for idiots in one of | the streets of the city, otherwise exclusively de- | voted to private residences,” The opinion of the _ law officer 1s that nu such power is granted in any of the charter acts. He says ‘property acquires certain artificial advantages irom the growth of a city, in return for which it ought to be subjected to those police regulations found neediui to the | maintenance of the rights of all. For example, that an owner may erect a stable rigat in front of | arow of brown stone front houses or @ houge for the insane or idiotic waere a hundred other men have invested the earnings of @ lifetime for peace- ful residences for their Jamilies, or that a dog fan- | cler may set up@ noisy hospital for mongrels | at any point where civilization nay claim a right to exist, amounts, 1p effect, upon property and per- sons in acity to most abominable Wrong.” He recommends that the Legisiature be interceded to | give the Aldermen power to regulate the use of private property 80 as to prohibit the maintenance of asylums {or idiots and other nuisances when in- | jurious to private property. The communication was referred to the Law Committee, The following ordinance was adopted with a | view of curtailing the cur nuisance, by removing | the dispensers of hydrophobia:— | . Sxctiow1—It shall be the duty of every policeman to | kill any dog not tuily and securely muzzled, tound or to be tound upon the streets or vacant lots in this city, either with or without an owner. ‘The nominees of the Mayor for the Board of Edu- catiun were acted upon, Mr. A.

It appears the two held different views, not only in poli- tics but in religion, Dobbs being a contirmed Know Nothing and a follower of Luther, while Henry is @ pronounced liberal in politics and a reverent adherent of the Church of Kome. On the evening named the two men met in a saloon near the ferry and Henry asked Dobbs to drink. Dobbs declined, and a row ensued, the result of which was that Dobbs drew a pistol and shot Henry im the hand and breast, inflicting wounds which prove fatal. Several doctors tried vo extract the ball in the breast. but jailed; and one of them expressed his opinion that Henry woald die. He was removed to his house on Niles avenue, West New York. Dobbs was arrested, and, a8 above stated, lodged in the Hudson County Jail. He declares that he used the pistoi in sell- defence. At last accounts Henry was still alive, but nis recovery was a matter of grave doubt. Dobbs 1s reputed to be quite wealtuy.
