\h Pe EE LOL sas THE COURTS. Aldermen Entitled to Pay as Supervisors. Northern Pacific Railroad Bonds in Court. The HOUSE OF REFUGE COMMITMENTS, The Last Hearci of the Ar- kansas Tisveller. A woman named Ellen <uapp was yesterday ‘brought before United Sta:es Commissioner Os- born, charged witn having extorted $50 for tne collection of a pension, mucii more than she was entitled to under the stature, She was hetd in $1,000 bail. In the United States Distr.ct Court, before Judge Biatchford, the foliowing ;roperty, seized at No. 401 Greenwich street, on suspicion of being smug: gied, was yesterday condemned, no owner ap- pearing :—Thirty tour diamonds, four diamond riugs, twelve watches aud a quantity of otner jewelry. . A question yesterday arose before Judge Blatch- ford, sitting in bankrupscy, which 1s interesting to practitioners in thts court and their clients, The amended Bankruptcy law, it appears, does not Provide tn express terms that answers in involun- tary cases shail be sworn to, Judge Biatchiord decides that notwithstanding this omission the answers in question must be affirmed on oath, SALARY OF THE SUPERVISORS. cote The question chat has doubtless for several Months past greatly ugitated the minds of tne members of the Board of Supervisors whether they, in addition to drawing pay as members of the Board of Aldermen were entitled to an additional ssiuzy as members of the Board of Supervisors, has at length been brought to a judicial determination. Upon Comp. troller Green refusing to pay them as Supervisors, claiming that the oilice of Supervisor was embraced in that of Alderman, and that the charter forbids the holding of two salaried oMces at the same time, they put their heads together, and, having selected Mr. A. Oakey Hallas their counsel, 1t was arranged that Alderman Monhecimer bring a test suit, the termination of his case to settle all the others, After Mr. Hail had won his case in the Su- pertor Court, both at Speciai Term and in the Gen- eral Term, the other side took the case into the Court of Common Pteus, before Judge J, F, Daly, and precisely the same questions were raised. Mr, Hall moved to strike out the answer as frivo- lous and give judgment tor Mr. Nouheimer. Judge Daly axe his decision yesterday in the case, granting the motion and giving luis reasons for do- ing 60 in the io!lowing opinion :— OPINION OF JUDGE DALY, That the provisions of the city charter (chapter 835, Laws 1873, sections 114 and 116) do not alfect the right of the members of the Board of Aldermen to draw salary as Supervisors in addition to the salary of Alderman fixed by that act, has been de- cided by the Supreme Court at Spesial Term | (People ox rel Monheimer vs. Green, September, 1873, Judge Fancher), and that cecision was amirmed at General Term, October, 1873. The same view of the provisions oi the charter was taken by this Coart at Specia! Term on a case containing | similar questions. (Matter of Recorder Hackett | vs. Green, Common Pleas, Spec:al erm, September, | 1873). The ouly issue raised by the answer on this | case has therefore beeu disposed of by this Court and the Supreme Court udversely to the deiend- i ant. The piea of payment in the answer must be | read in connection with the other averments, and | amounts to no more tuan an allegation that delend- | ant bas paid plamtiit bis salary as Alderman. There | is no allegation that he bas been paid what he sues | tor+-viz,, his separate salary us Supervisor, There | is no salary jor “Alderman of the y of New | York and ex-oMcio Supervisor of the county of | New York,” but two salaries, one for Alderman as fixed by the charter, and one for Supervisor, as | xed by prior, statutes, Nor docs the subsequent Cansolid:tion act touch the question of the platn- tits salary. That act does not abolish the office of Supervisor or the county o: New York. It re- quires the Board of Aldermen to perform all duties devolving upon the Board of Supervisors; but for the last four years, and for many years prior to 1867, the Aldermen acted as Supervisors. Tne city and’ county governments are now congolidated ; but the act recognizes the necessity, for the pre- servation in jorm and in faci, of a Board oi Super- visora for the county. Nothing is said tn the act as tothe salary which the Aldermen received up to the passage of the act for holding office as Su- pervisors. hile the office itselfis preserved, and nothing is enacted as to salury, there isno au- thority for saying that the salary ceases, because the greater part of the separate duties of Super- | visors have been abolished. ‘The incumbents of | the office of Supervisors, performing its duties, are entitled to the salary fixed by previous statutes for such office. 1 find that the Corporation Counsel comes to the same conclusion, in bis opinion to the Board of Supervisors of May 20, 1874 (vide City May 26, 1874, pp. S72 and 573). Motton ‘| granted. NORTHERN PACIFIC BONDS. Elijah Myers, holder of $15,000 of the original is- sue of the seven-tnirty bonds of the Northern Pa- cific Railroad, has brought suit on his own behalf and on behalf of those similarly situated to tore- cloge the mortgage given to secure those bonds. ‘Tne defendants are the ratiroad and Jay Cooke and William B. Ogden, the trustees of the mortgage. The plaintiff alleges that, under the trust deed to them, they are required, in default of the payment ot the interest on the bonds, to uotify the company and then enter on the lands, aud, after six weeks’ notice, sell the lands for the benefit of the bond- holders; that default has been made in the ast January and Juiy interests, but that the trustees have not acted unuer this deed. he | further alleges that some time ago the road re- solved to give no more seven-thirty bonds under this mortgage, Dor Auy bonds bearing a higher in- terest than six per cent, but that since there have been Issued more seven-thirt, nd the is- sue of stil! more is imainen > claims that all such bonds are not protected by the mortgage. He further alleges that tne lauds ure able to be taxed ana that the corporation cannot pay them, thus endangering the whole sure He $ an order that tne trustees go on and take the proper steps to pogsess themselves of and sell the lands for the benctit o1 the holders of tne seven-thirty wsued before 1874 only; that the 5 ent trustees be removed and the ratiroad restrained from tgsuing any further seven-thirty bonas. The case came yesterday beiore Mr. Jus- tice Donohue on a motion’on behalf oi the railroad company, to remove the case to the United States Circuit Court. The motion was made on a petition setting up the act of Congress authorizing such re- moval, and @ bond of George W. Cuss, the Presi- dent of the road, for $1,000, posed by Messrs. Hall and Blandy, tne plaintif’s counsel, on the ground that tue surety was insuf- ficient and that the action was not on @ “liability”? of the corporation, all that was asked in regara'to it being an injunction, the main action being against the tru: Jadge Donohue held that as the papers were regular the case must be transierred and all the questions raised jn the United Staves Court on a motion to remand the case. INDEFINITE COMMITMENTS, Max Waptcovitch, a bright-eyed boy of fifteen, | qwas brought yesterday into the Supreme Court, Chambers, Judge Dononus on the bench, in onedi- ence to a writ of habeas corpus previousiy granted bis counsel, Mr. Willian F. Kintzing, through which is sought bis discharge from the House of Refuge. General Seasions at the last May term, belore Judge Sutherland, upon a charge of larceny from the person, convicted, and, in consequence of his youth, sent to the House of Reinge, in which insti- tution he has been confined ever since. Mr. gerald, counsel for the House o! Refuge, submitied a8@ return to the writ the commitment of the Conrt, setting forth the age of the boy us being Aifteen years of age, and committing wim to the care of the managers of the House of Refuge. Mr. Kintzing raised the point that the prisoner was illegally aeprivea of his liverty, The commit- ment, he ated, showed its lace that the prisoner had’ been convicted of a felouy the statutory punishment tor which could not ex- ceed five years; but for all this the commitment showed that he had been sent to the House of Refuge for an indefinite period. quest the power of the Oourt to commit a juye- nile delinqnent to the House of Refuge, but tie de- nied the right of ajudge to commit ior an indefi- nite period. The time, he tnsisted, should be specified in the commitment, and shouta not ex- ceed the maximum punishment fixed by statute. Mr. Kintaing turther contended that if this course The motion was op- | ‘The prisoner was tried in the Court of | Counsel did not | NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 26, 1874.-TRIPLE SHEET. of practice was to be upheld, the punishment to be meted out in case of aconviction of a child of ten- der years could be greater tnan that inflicted upon an adult aud hardened criminal, for the reason that under the law & minor could be kept until he was twenty-one years oO! age, and as at the time of his committal he might be only ten years ol age, this might make his punishment of eleven years’ | duration for ap offence the highest punishment | for which the statute says shall not exceed five years. ur. Fitzgerald, in reply, said it was true the commitment did not specify the time for the ex- piration of the imprisonment; but, under its act of incorporation, Wie managers of the House of Reiuge could discharge prisoners at any time in their discretion, spectiying, however, that they shall not be kept atter they arrive at twenty-one years of age. He contended turther that the House of Refuge is not & prison, but a reformatory, and that the course of practice adopted in this case bas slwars been the practice since the organiza- tion of the society. He asked upon this state of facts that the writ be dismissed and the prisoner remanded to the managers of tne House of Refuge. Mr. Kintzing, im rejoinder, acknowledged the fact that the statute left it discretionary witn the Judge as to what was to be the punishment, apd, in the case of a minor, the place of imprisonment ; but the Court, ne urged, must exercise that discretion, both as to the time of the expiration of the sentence and the place "of confinement, and that it can- Dot delegate that power to the managers of the House of Retuge. It would be virtually saying to the manazers of the House of Reiuge, “Here, take | the convict and punish him for as long @ period as in your discretion you think proper.” This power, | he contended, was never contemplated by the Statute, and to vest such a power in the House of Reluge would work great injustice. Judge Dono- | Due, aiter hearing the respective counsel, came to | the conclusion to dismiss the writ and remand the prisoner. Mr. Kintaing immediately had an or- | der entered trom which to carfy the case to the Court of Appeals for a decision upon this impor- tant and Knotty boint of law. ‘The question is | ohe of considerable importance, as in case the | pot taken ts sustained it will result in a gen- | eral delivery from the imstitution, as nearly all the | immates are confined under like commitments. REF2REES IN BANKRUPTCY. iestticinonnes In the suit of De Forest vs. Farley and others, for foreclosure om a mortgage of $125,000, Mr. Keves, who held the ‘equity of redemption,” be- came insolvent and filed a petition in bankruptcy, and Judge Blatchiord, of the Unitea States Bank- ruptcy Court, noticed all the parties, appointed an assignee and ordered him to sell, in conjunction with the referee who had previously been ap- H pointed by the Supreme Court, The referee at- | tended the alo, bnt, it is alleged, did not take an | active part, and he aeclined to give aceds to the | purchasers. A motion was made yesterday in | Bopreme Court, Caambers, beiore Judge Donohue, on benaif of holders of leus on the property, to | restrain the reieree irom getting any deed and for an order o1 resale. The motion was opposed by counsei ior the bapkrupt’s creditors, Judge Donohue promptly gave a ruling. He would not interfere with the assignee in bank- | ruptey. The purchasers m'gbt take his deed if the | sale was a valid one; but as the releree is an of- ficer o: the State Court he could not transier his power to give a deed vo the officer of another court without permission, Ifthe assignee hagcome in and substututed himsell as a party for the bank- | rupt the Court would have modified the decree ac- | cordingly, but as matters stand the Court grants the injunction against the referee, but withhulds | decision as to the jorm of the order, there being a question whether the sale was by the reieree, | THE ARKANSAS FIGHT. The late sensation, the arrest by Jacob F. Trumpler, of Arkansas, of Henry H. Clark, on a charge of attempting to assassinate and rob him of $42,000 on a Jersey City ferryboat, has exploded. When Clark was arrested he protested his inno- cence, but was held to bail, and then, seeing matters look very serious, ‘Irumpler having post- tively identified ‘him as one of the gang who at- tempted to murder him, Clark retained the pro- fessional services of Mr. William F, Howe to extri- cate hit from his difficulties. The case was called yesterday tor trial at the Court of special Sessions, Clark and a host of witnesses from the Adams | Express Company, including John Hoey, Jr., were resent, but Trumpier did not appear, and Mr. Howe, after elaborating on the conduct of the complainant and pronouncing his story @ hoax, moved the Court for the discharge of his client, which was granted, and Clark and his array or friends leit the court room rejoicing and uttering congratulations on the victory obtained. A COURT HOUSE KEEPER'S PAY. | eee James Haskill brought suit against the city for Salary as assistant Court House keeper. The | ciatm was duly audited by the Board of Super- | visors. Judge J. F. Daly, before whom the case | was heard, in the Court of Common Pleas, gave the following decision yesterday:—Uounsel for the Corporation concludes that there 1s but one question to be discussed upon the answer inter- posed hercin—viz., the authority of the Board of Supervisors to audit on December 9, 1873, the claim of plaintiff at $1,225 for services as assistant keeper of the Court House trom September 1, 1871, to June 24, 1872, The plaintiff was regularly ap- jointed to that place by the Board of Supervisors, aly 5, 1869, at a yearly salary of $1,500. While he held the position the act chapter 382, section 11, Laws 1870, Was passed, giving to tour Commis- sioners powers to complete the County Court | | House, and declaring that henceiorth all powers | | of the Board of Supervisors over the erection of said Court House should cease. But this act can- not be tortured to take away from the Board of Supervisors any of its powers over and duties in | respect of the County Court House, except the | power of erecting or completing the building. Its care and custody of that, with other county offices, | remained, and the appointment and employment | | of keepers, &c., had not been removed. ‘The rigut ; to audit plaintif’s claim as assistant keeper was unquestionable, Forming his decision on the fore- | going rales, Judge Daly sustained the aemurrer to | the answer and rendered judgment for plaintiff for | the amount claimed. DIVORCE DIFFICULTIES. | Altogracta Cepeda de Liamoso has brought in the Supreme Court a suit for Mmited divorce against her husband, Antonio de Lamora de Lia- | moso, the charge being cruel and imhuman treat- | ment. The referee appointed to take evidence wita a view to settlement of the preliminary ques- tion as to the amount of alimony and counsel tee | | to be paid submitted a report, according to the | wife $35 a week alimony and $500 counsel fee, The | case was argued at some length yesterday in Su- | preme Court, Chambers, betore Judge Dononue, on @ motion to coniirm this report. Mr. Algernon 5. Sullivan, on behalfof the lady | complainant, urged that upon the evidence record- ing the income of the husband the recommenda- | tlons of the referee were just and equitable, He | | said subsequently, however, that if the pecuniary | means of the hnsband did not permit payment of so much he would waive bis fee rather than that | | the lady should be made a sufterer. Mr. F. Condert, | | in opposition, figured the husband's income down | | to @ sum not warranting the payment oi: the | amount named by the reeree, Judge Donohue | | took the papers, reserving nis decision. | | BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. | o. i SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS.

BRUTALLY BEATEN IN A SALOON, Mr. Duncan McPherson, Emigrant Freight Agent at Castle Garden, who resides on Schurts avenue, East New York, was te.ribly beaten in Dobbe’s saloon, on Baitic avenue, on Monday evening. Dobbe was absent at the time and his wife was in charge of the place, assisted by a son fifteen years old, Aman named Muller, who represented himself to be a New York detective, with a companion, en- tered, cuiled jor beer and sat down at a table to drink it, Shortly afterward McPherson entered, apparently excited from liquor or some other cause, and Calied tur a drink at the bars te then accosted the two men and made use of some opprobrious epithe.s. Muiler and his companion arose to resent the insult, Whereupon McPherson drew a revoiver. The two wen then seized him, disarmed him, and commenced beating him about the head and face tu a iright.ul manner, using the revolver for the purjose. Knocking him across a tabie, they contipued ,ounding him, and, finally, | in the face, Which uiso bears the imprint of their heavy boothees, Fearing that murder wou.d be committed, Mrs. Dobbe aud her son r@u for assise | tance, and upon returning With several men Muller and his companion desisted and leit the place, McPherson, Who Was ina pitiabie condition, witn his ieatures rendered almost unrecognizable and where he was attended by a physician, who pio nounced his injuries to ve very serious. “UNLUOKY DOGS, — The Census and Death Roll of the Dog Pound Yesterday. ‘The Dog Pound at the foot of Sixveenth street, East River, under the charge of Captain Mar- riott, is not, just now, the terrible noisy menagerie that it has been during the past six or seven | weeks, and yet there were yesterday a8 many as | 170 dogs’ chained to the ground awaiting their destruction, Which, in all probability, took place this morning. On yesterday morning, at 81x o'clock, 175 canine passengers were putinto Captain Marriott's “Black Maria” and rolied into their watery grave. The method of drowning them is very simpic and easy. | When locked up in the dog cage they are rolled down to the river's edge, a distance of about twenty yards, The cage, which generally hoids | about thirty canines, is tien lifted up wy means ‘of @ derrick and afterwards lowered into the fiver, Aiter the poor animals are submerged beneath the waves for ups | wards o1 five minutes they are again hited up vy the derrick and pronounced “emphatically dead,” They are thence conveyed in a wagon to the duniping ground, Thirty-firsc street and North River. During the past week 921 dogs bave been The average number received daily during the past three weeks is about 150, ‘The dogs to be seen at present at the pound present a most deplorable appearance, with two or three exceptions, All the poor, miserable | night before wneir capture. When a strange lace is seen inside the pound all the canines spring to their feet and give a unanimous salute by growl- ing, and continue to yelp until the whip sounds on the bench ‘near them. One of the dogs still remaining is @ potnter, brown color, and evidentiy @ spienaid watcnaog; another, a Spitz of good breed, There are, bi sides, one nice looking King George and some set viceable Newioundiand dogs, bull’ terriers, spai Jels, setters, pug dogs und carriage pets. Tae redemption fee is $3, Every dog, unless the owner interferes, 18 drowned alter forty-eignt hours’ re- tenuon. A stranger, by paying the pound fine, can release @ dog Lf not cla:med in due time by the owner. ‘The keever of the Newark pound, was pres- ent yesterday afternoon investigating the new process of extinguishing canine Iie. In compar- ing hotes he tound there was a decided difference between both processes, and said that the number of dogs destroyed in Newark during the summer was scarcely one-tenth of that recorded in the | New York Dog Pound, The tormer will close on the 27rh ult., but the latter will continue open as Jong as a dog remains at large tn New York. “OLTY TREASURY.

Death from a Three Story Leap—I'wo Surgeons Unable to Discover Two Broken Kibs und a Fatal Fracture of the Skull, Coroner Eickhof yesterday held an inquest in the matter of the death of Edward McMahon, a | botlermaker, aged twenty-three years, who {ell | from the roof of the rear three story house, No. 354 | East Tenth street, on the night of August 14, ana died from his injuries the following morning. Mc- Mahon, according to the testimony of his mother, had been im the habit for the past tem years of sleeping on the roof during the summer heats, There was also @ young woman who slept on the roof for some time back. Edward went to his airy dormitory about ten o’clock, when his motner | perceived no sign of drink upon him. He carried aloft his pallet and the mother knew nothing of him further til after twelve, when she was awakened by a disturbance in the house and some one saying a person had fallen from the roof. She at once went up ard iound Edward’s bed appa- rently as though he had just arranged it to lie down, He was not to be seen and she went to where the girl was lying, apparently sound asleep. She shook her and inquired where Edward was. ‘The girl replied, “In his bed, 1 suppose,” and seemed utterly ignorant of his absence By this time the police had arrived, and picking the young man up from the area, helped him into a cart, which conveyed him to the police station, followed by the mother. He had the appearance of a per- sou stupeiied with Iiquor, answered questions, SUNG THE MULLIGAN GUakDS, was jolly, and gave no account of bis leap from the roof, which was a flat one and entirely un guarded at tue edge by parapet or railing to pre- veut the roliing of of its summer night sleeping tenants, Sergeant Abearn, who was lo charge at tue Eleventh precinct station house, sent lor the ambulance and the police surgeon. Meanwhile te Jeit McMabou’s pulse and found it normal, but its language Was obscene and his conduct deciaediy hilarious, 4is mother tried to check tus irregu- larities. but his breath toid of alconono stumuiant, and his tongue ran on like Tilton’s with the ser- vant girl, He told a halt coberent tale of having been threatened with violence by two strange men on the rooi two nights previous. TWO SURGICAL LUMINARIES, At length the medical officers came, Both the amouiance surgeon and the police surgeon ex- amined the leaper and could find no injury upon him. To their official eyes there was Visible no cut, bruise, abrasion, contusion or other tr:ce of violence. They only saw 10 him a good natured, tipsy man. heir acute and trained sense of feeling could detect no iracture or displacement Ol any boue, limb or organ. Their practised touch detected no abnormal characteristics oi; arterial } pulsation, nor diu their ears revea! unnatural sounds from heart or lungs. Yet this noisy stauon house patient, Whom,the two lights Of science in | Otce pronounced simply drunk, had two vroken Tibs, @ fatal fracture uf the skull and internal in- juries which were alone enough to lave produced death in a short time, WHAT TO'DO WITH HIM. He was ‘no case for me,” the ambulance sur- | geon said, and the police surgeon deciined to see any occasion for treatment. By their advice the police sergeant had him conveyed home. He walked up the stairs with tue assistance of Oficer Myers, Who left tim onthe floor of his mother's room as jolly a boy as ever siept ou aro! where two empty whiskey bottles and a sound sleeping young woman were left behind aiter his sudden descent, He talked and sung and to his mother seemed a little out of his head till nine o’ciock in the morning, when death silenced his noisy tongue. His mother suspected he had been pushed from the roof, No proof appeared to sustain her belies. Dr. Leo, who made the post-mortem examina- tion, testified that he ‘ound a fracture of the right temporal bone, fracture of two ribs on the rigot side and rupture of the spleen. He thought deat! resulted {rom compression of the brain. So thought the jury, who returned a verdict of acci- dental death from faliing off the roof, There are many roofs in this city similarly unprovided with guards at the edge, and hundreds sieep upon them In the hot sumwer nignts.
