PRI = POG Continuation of the Trial of Mason, the Seeret Service Detective. DANGERS OF TOY PISTOLS. In the suit brought by Davis, the receiver of the ‘Ocean National Bank, against Henry D. Stover and Dthers to recover on four promissory notes, the particulars of which have been published im the HERALD, whe jury yesterday were unaovle fo agres Chief Justice Day, belore whom tne case was tried, thereupon discharged them from further eonsideration of the case. In the trial of the alleged railroad bond forgers, | before Judge Sedgwick, of the Superior Court, some interesting testimony was given yesterday, Superintendent Walling testified that he would not believe Spence Pettis under oath on account of bis reputation as an associate of forgers; buton his sross-examiuation be admitted that the defend- ania In this action, Roberts, Gleason and Cort, were ali of the same kidney, and known as such Jor many years in police circles. Mrs, Gleason, and Cort, the laiter admitting an alias, were among those examined. The latter, on Lis cross-exami- Ration, admitted that he bad served a term in Bing Sing. Neither of these witnesses, they being brotver and sister, stuod very well the crucibie of | cross-examination. The probability 18, from pres- ent appearances, that the trial will last at ieast a Week longer. In the suit brought by Ellen Doyle agsinst the sity for $5,000 damages on accuunt of the death of ber husband, Patrick Doyle, through stumbling against some timbers placed in a hole on the bulk- head between piers Nos. 3 and 4 North River, and in consequence being precipitated into the . iver and drowned, the jury brought in a sealed rdict yesterday before Judge Van Vorst, in Whose Court the case was tried. On the Jurors peing polled one of them stated tnat, although signing the verdict, he bad since changed his mind. Judge Van Vorst, alter severely repri- Manding him Jor the course he had taken, sent the jury out again, They were absent some three hours, when they again came into Court and stated that they could not agree, Upon this an- nouncement Judge Van Vorst discharged the jury, but ordered tae juror who had changed bis mind to appear before him on Friday uext and show cause why he should not be punished for contempt ot Court. THE MASON COUNTERFEITING OASE. ‘The trial of George Albert Mason jor dealing in counterfeit money was yesteraay resumed belore Judge Beneaict, in the crimimal branch of the United States Court, when Assistans District At- torney Purdy announced that he was ready to argue the points involved in the questions raised on tme day previous by prisouer’s counsel as to the discrepancies between the description of the sounterieits made in the indictment and tne word- ing of the bills. Prisuner’s counsel made excep- tions of a very Serious nature, and intimated thas tLe indiciment snould be quashed, as there Was u0 evidence to justify the allegaudns made in the va- rious counts. ‘The Court suggested to prisoner’s counsel tn: he would allow him to take excep ions for a new trial. The Court would overrule bis objections, and allow bim to move for a new triaion tue points raised, It was decided to discuss the points raised later in the proceedings, aud tne direct examination of Chief Washburn, of the Secret Ser- Vice Division, was resumed. He stated that the letser now produced, adaressed to Mrs. Wells, was im an envelope ia Masou’s handwriting, but Le could not say that the jetrer is in Mason’s basd- writing; the jevter iniorms Mrs, Wells thathe had taken a room opposite her piace in Hudson Street under the name of “Smith;” witness found im bis room clotuing, papers and @ prayerbook; he asked jor the return o! his clothing to the jail; he wold me bis business was “an old counterieiter and blackmailer ;” the suvstance o/ bis statement Was that be was an old counterieiter; this ne said ‘st Washington auc several tiwes aller; this was objected to, but admitted; I asked him 1! he badn’s been in tue counterieiting business and be said be had; I beard Masou say he could engage in sounterieiting and { could uot detect nim; r eard bim say he intended to engage in we vasine: Mason oojecied to signing the receipt | now produce, on tue grocad Bhat | Was HOt pay Dy enough ; bave Bot conversed With Masoa since bis arrest, or rather I bave bot Visited wim; 1 offered to get bis ciocni nd seud 16 10 HiM ut she jau; this Was ou the Stairs as I left your (vr.
