8 NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY 14, 1875.-TRIPLE SHEET. WM. M. TWEED. ‘An Application to Vacate the Order of Arrest or Reduce Bail. ‘A STRONGLY CONTESTED ARGUMENT. Look on This Picture and on That. Look Tweed a Wickedly Persecuted Man and the | Greatest of Modern Raseals. <eiinenseiog THE ARGUMENT TO BE CONTINUED 10-DiY. The summer solsticean dulness of the courts Was somewhat relieved yesterday by a pro- dongea aod warmly contested argument upon the order to show cause why the order of arrest against William M. Tweed, in the new sult re- cently begun against bim, should not be vacated or She $3,000,000 bail be reduced. Before Judge Bur- rett, in Supreme Court, Chambers, the argument ‘took place, and the occasion drew together quite @ large attendance—a fact to be mainly attributed to @ widespread supposition iat the ex-Mogul of Tammany would be present, but which, how- aver, did not prove to be the case. But there ‘was no lack of his representative counsel, Messrs. David Dudiey Field, Dudiey Field and Robert BR ‘Deyo appearing for him, William M. Tweed, Jr., ‘and Mr. Foster Dewey, former secretary of tue 2x-Boss, were also present. Messrs. Charles @Oonor and Wheel:r H. Peckham represented the people. THE NEW COMPLACNT. David Dadiey Field opened the argument by stating the grognds on which the application is made and recited the tities of the various papers, among which were tne notice of lis pendens, the attachment against Mr. Tweea’s property, th notice of discontinuance of the old suit and the commencement of the new, the complaint and order of arrest. Me then read the new complaint tm the case, This complaiat sets forth that in 1870 Tweed, Connolly and Hall were appointed a Board of Audit for the county, and that they held put One meeting; that Tweed and tnetr clerk, James Watson, conspired to obtain moneys of the city, ‘and caused to be presented various warrants and Vouchers, the amounts of which were paid out of Moneys to the Comptroller's credit, and which were paid to various individaals and were ob- tall possession of Dy Tweed and Watson, and ‘She action 1s to reclaim the money for neglect to Budit or conspiracy or both. The property de- scribed in the lis pendens is enormous ip amount @nd scattered. The compinint avers that $6,000,000 ‘Were stolen trom the city by the defendant ana Watson, and the order of arrest is batlable in $3,000,000. A BRIEF RESUME. The defenaants urge that the snit In 1870 was Substantially for the same cause of accion; that the Court of Appeals decided that tne suit nad no foundation; that the Legislature was induced to pass an act, the object of which appears to have Deen to nullify the action of the Court of Appeals; that the present suit is founded on that act; but bafore commencing it the plaintiffs did not take the precaution to discontinue the frst suit; that Shey indeed entered an order declaring that the sult was discontinued, and directing that the de- fendant’s cos's snould be paid; bat the costs never were paid or tendered, and the defendant's ball im that sult have = ot brought in Mayor, &e., and the ocher GROUNDS OF THE PRESENT APPLICATION. p 0) The principal grounds Support of the — were that dant has been siready arrested and held to bail in $1,000,000 at ‘the suit of the same plaintils, for the samme cause of action; that the order of arrest was made while other act ig aad thi Mes, for th + pending, wherein the deJendant was and ie still ‘under to the amount of $1,000,000; that the papers oo which the order was granted were yd 8 for the i Bufliciently or properly verified; that no cause action im favor of the plaintiffs ie shown by tl compiaint or the papers on which the order 1s ranted; that the defendant cai be held to and his property at the same tme and in the game action; that the bail would be excessty Supposing @ good cause Of acilon to be show! that the amouut O! bail 1s excessive and propibite yy the constitution, and that tue bail exceed an amount wWlico the delendant is sup- posed avie to give. DUDLEY FIELD'S ARGUMENT. His first point was that @ defendant once at rested in BCivii action cannot be again arreste: for the same cause Of action except under circum- ptances Wuich do nol arise in toiscase. He urged ‘that this is the rule, though the first sult may hav discontinued, ‘ne geverail rule on the suv- ject is vans laid down to defendant having cace been meral be arrested again Jor the same cause of action. Nemo debet bis verari pro una et eadein causa.” He then clted tue case of Archer va. (8 Moore, 607), In which toe Court “The general rule is that a defendant t be rearrested ulter a disconunasnce, it or bon pros. unless the former ac was founded on a mistake, weich Mnistake would tend to show that tne sevond @rrest was not vexatious. But it is not only neceassry or the plainiiff to stow that Re discon- Ciaded of noo-pressed the former action, on the ground of misconception or mistake, but tuat the second Sfrest Was not Vexatioags, and if he does hot do this the Court will infer that it was so.” He then tusisted that the amendments to the Code under which the atiacament the order of arrest are obtaiaed Im this action ts only of two distinct sections of » Of arrests and of attachments; the only alterations sre to extead cases where arrests may he Persons ootaining, without rigat, ag to extend the cases ents may oo had to the Same Class Of persons; tuat in all otwer respects the law remains as it Was befor id is nothing to authorize tne tbat the had to cases pub- prier sult im whica lie is bela $o ball is pending, ano chat if the prior suit had been discontinued the second would have been held vexatious, His second point was that the — Sait is vexatious, and the prosecution, nder ail the eivcumstances, may be charscterized 84 & maliciout one, and that the Court wi Willingly iend }%8 aid in & suit of that cha He urged that where are im faet turee otuer Toe Peopie vs, Tweed, the Mayor, &c., va. ge and Tue Board of Supervisors vs. Tweeu, His third pomt wae that an atiachm has been issued im tia action, and that purpose; that the aMdavits o: A. 8.

Bis remaiuing poiots Were that no cause of action exists in favor of the present plaintiffs; that the Court | of Ap; in 8 deetsion in tle Mist case, sustaining the demar, have decived that the people cannot sustain Bach action; that the get of the Legisiacure aoes improve the plaintifl’s position; that supposing the action weil founded in ali respects, suth am amount of ball is excessive and contrary to the constitution of the State; that without reference, however, to | tutional quesiion, the bail (I! allowed at id be Teduced tO @ reasonabe amount, | and finally that the order of arrest should be vacated or the ball reduced to a moderate sum. THE ARGUMENT OF MR, PEOKH AM. Mr. Peckham made @ leagtuy argument in reply. The motion, he began, was made on the papers © which the order was granted and on the papers | 10a suit of the reopie va. Tweed, impleaded wiih Ingersoll, The on'y aMidavit Was by the avrorney o: Tweed in the Ingersoll suit, to the effect that the costs therein uad not been paid or tendered. In this connection fe read au aMdavit show! that the costs had been tendered siace tue order was granted to show cause, The motion, he tn- sisted, Was couseqieutiy made for alleged irregu- larisies, except so far aa it is a motion to reduce bail, So far as that branch of the motion was con- | cerned, he contended toat if a judge or court bas apy discretion in xing the amount of bail, iu is @D appeal trom the discretion of one judge to an- other—the practice anomalous in this State. There | atically plunderin control of tae to suit their purpo: the local treasury, that they gisiature and fasaloned laws apd that they hadfiiled both the prosecuting judicial oMfces with their tools, or at least their friends. It was impossibie, thereiore, to prosecute them here. ‘Tue ouly re- source on benaif of ti ublic was the Attorney General. Tweed was the teader of this band of thieves. He received the “lion's snare” of the booty and wielded the “iio ’s share” of tae power, As the corrupt jodiclary was overthrown and the public prosecutions passed into other and not subservient hands, several of the more prominent of these public plunderers ted, not daring to face the prosecutions mmatituted against them, This defendant alone, with a boid- as and effrontery tne offspring of a Yong career of successful crime and an entire confidence in gid methods the of irand and rascality, to defeat justice, deter- mined to remain and to contest the ifort to mete out to him the punishment he so richly deserved, The result was notorious, tke crvil action fallea, because, a8 the Court of Appeals has deciared, the peo bad no causefot action. To Tweed’s amazement the criminal proceeding succeeded, bat its morai eCect hag been sudstantially destroyed through his receat liberation. Several of the judges of the Court of Appeals regret his lberation, change fom the Penitentiary on Biackweil’s Isiand to Ludlow Street Jail. The defendant has now been arrested in this action, and he asks this Court to vacate the order of arrest or reduce bis bail. He makes this ap- plication without any dental of his guilt, ‘Wi.hout @ Word of contradiction of the aliegatious of the complaint, without having returned a singie dollar of the stolen money, and reiying solely on the leading tecnnicalities uf astute tech- nical counsel, In no seuss did such a0 application commend itself to a court of jastice. Every hon- est impuise is against bim. 1: would never ve granted uoless to deny it would be found in con- Miet with some stera, well settled and inflexible Tule of law to which morality itself, must yieid. Alter these general preliminary remarks be took ‘up the case strictly in its legal bearings. Hs first polut was that the supposed rule that no one should be @ second time arrested by the same plaintiff for the sume cause of action i it could be proven would bave no applicati He in- sisted that this was not the ame oause Jately and finally ¢ ofaction. The present action was brought ander jaw transferring causes of action existing In favor of the Mayor, &c., of New York to tie people. An anelogous case was the rignt of the Attorney General in England to sue for misappropriation of public iunds by pudlic omcers of municipal corpo- Fations, prior to the The Ingersoll suit was Giscoutinued rrest in this case, and prior to the commencement of this action. There could be, he arged, no qnestion at this day that a defen tmay be arrested in cond suit after the disc ntimuacce of the first, provided only that | Becond arrest does not appear vo pe vexatious, in support of this principie he cited sev. eral cases. In Brown vs. Davis (Ist Chitty Report, 161, K. #,) motion that ball bond be cancelled on the ground that 1ormer action ior the same cause had oeen brought and compro mised. But that does not authorize the setting aside of the proceedings In au action institute Yor tue same cause unless the second arrest ap- ears to have been made purposely to agzrieve ne deiendunt. In the case of Bates ve. barry (2 Wilson, 881) the defendant having bi arrested &nd cause at issne of pain discontinued, on ment of costs, having discovered that he uld have brought covenant instead of case. e then commencea cond action and again arrested defendant. Motion was then made to Gisebarge from this seeond arrest on comnen bail, on the ground that it was oppressive. It was held that there was no intention to oppress. Having elaborated this point at great length, he urged a8 bis second point that +whatever ir ‘ity May exist in the manner of verification it Dot potuted out in the notice of motion as required by the Code, and that tnere is no irregularity in the verification. His third point was that the cause | of action is clear if the people have a rigut of ac- tion, w! he insisted they cleariy have under the law of Marca 12, 1875; and, moreover, that in pursuance to the opinion of this motion the Court will Dos tn tion of this Kind. He raised as a arrest and attachment may sees 1a Next point was const mj een oly to crimimal cas of ball im civil action was bot! adopti (| the Constitution the amount of plain- | tills demand. His conciading potnt, and one urged at greater length than any of the previous ones, Was taat tne ball is not excessive, but, on the contrary, | tat itis really too smal. He ciaimed tbat | there was no that defendant was uuavle to give afl demanded; that | Rot denied that defendant intends to Au order of arrest and an attachment in the same | action should not be allowed. The two provisional femedies of attacbment and srreat for the same Matter canno. be resorted to, for that would werk pgs Indeed they cannot co-exist, for y are inconsistent, To require ball of & de- Jendant, alver tuking trom him ali his proper to require what would be an impossibility in nine cases out of ‘en. The whole spirit of our law is Against it, Tue sole purpose of au arrest ia to Secure the person of the deiencdant: the sole pur- pose of Dall is to relieve bim irom constraint.

Yo have at the same time the two provisional remedies of at- tachment ama arrest Would thus be inconsistent with the theory of the final reweay. ‘ihey are, Moreover, imcousistent wita eack other. ‘oe Code allows @ deienaant to deposit money instead of bail (section 197). But thr defendant cannot deposit money if you take it from him; therefore, to take irom 4 defendant tue means of making & Geposit for nis relief, and then to arrest him and say in erfect oa Shall remain im jali until you make the de- sit, is to bind him first and thea teil wim to de- fend himself, Let as s0ppose the deendans to have $3,000,000 In money @ the commencement of the action and to Nave nothing eise.

Over iwo hundred and ftv, millions of obligations have been issued by the Union and Ceutrat Pacific railroads, ot which not one-half were ever paid for; yet the commerce of this country is being taxed to Day dividends upon the entre mass of obligations thus created, The legislation of Past decade has been largely in the interest of powerful rings of Individuals, fo the great deirimeat of the public, Acts iving mil: Lions and tens of millions of acres of public lands to these rings hive been lobbied through Congress and the several ntate Legisiatures, aud scarcely a Vo ce has be: | raised agamstit. The Union Pacific Railroad alone has an area one-third larger than the States of ‘Massa- chuseits, Rbole Island and Connecticut; the Central Pacific nearly as much more: while the Northern Facile | bas twice as much as both the others combined; while unlimited amounts of public lands and money seem to have been had by @ favored few for | tne asking and without any conditions being im- posed which would protect the public interest. There is ‘even less excuse for lezislation which has been obtained from, subservient Legislatures allowing the gross frands 10 be perpetrated upon the public.

Piphis the New York Cheap ‘fansportation Association since ifs organization has tried to do, and while, doupt- ‘owing to imexpericnce and want of data, we have not done as well as we might, yet in the progress made have ample cause for encouragement. In the last report of the Railway Commissioners of Massachusests, of which Mr. Charles jschairman, we find the rollowin; involved is already deeided—the essential victory on tne partof the commantty ts secured, The sense of ac- Peuntabilicy to the public as well as to the stockholders, e necessity of dealing equitably under a heavy re- ‘ousidility to public opibion, the recognition of the dis- | finction which exists between @ railroad corporation and a manutacturing company—all th Ciples are for the future established. * With tue tacit recognition of these principles the abuses incident to tne | foruner svstem of railroad management will pass away and with them the feeling, of popular anger which they very naaraliy provoked. ‘“lpoor's Hattway Manual” for 1874-6, just issued, states that wuch lower rates for transportation prevailed dur- ing the year 18/4 than for any previous year on record, Yet owing to economical and improved Management the het earnings were nearly equal to those of the previous Soar which are the iarest on record. This ts the direct re- Suit of pudhic opinion being brought to bear upon the ae. fects 1n or transportation system; it means that Credit Mobilier fast freight lines, constructing companies, ‘an! apply companies, togetuer with otacr me: diums by which officers aud managers of railways en- rich themselves at the expense ot the stockholders, are gradually being crushed out; and that as honest and economical management is tuaugurated lower rates can be given to the pubile without detrimeutto be interest of stockholders. ‘Now, I veniuce to assert that this aascciation bas had more to do with creating the public opinion which has brought about these results than any otner cause. The | time which we have given, the researches which we have made, the information which we have sown broad- east throughout the iand, both throash the medium of the public press and the thousands of reports. and other documents which we have issued, have all had their influence, and where betore people were uninformed and cousequeatly indifferent, they now to some extent appreciate the importance of the question, and that they, In common with all others of the comercial pro- évcing and consuming classes, are deeply interested in it. We have been active in advancing our local interests. The establishment of elevators, togesher with the tem of grading grata, which is now an assured fact and ‘one of the greatest steps torward which New York has taken in years, Was zealously advocated by us; also the reduction of the terminal charges on grain, the reduc- tion of tolls ou the capala the improvements of our water fronts, rapid transit, &c. Ali these we have done our best to forward, and with more or less success. We have conmstevtiy advogated the consiraction of a trunk line of railroad to ‘est, to be built on @ bardpan basis, and to be ow and operated in the interest of ne commeres of New York, id Ohio 0 propitious accumulated @ ad iJ ay cost and capabilities of such all which point “In the strongest ality of its being able to carry 3 which have been by our presont in- y fair rates on capital he ‘effect of such rates upon our commerce can be appreciate yy any merchant who has endeavored to hold bis trace in tbe tace of lower rates of treight trom other seabo ird cities.

Harrison, Secretary of the Commission, came out and volunteered the information to the press that @ resolation, offered by Commissioner Brown, was adopted, by which the Secretary was instructed tomsert an advertisement in the morning and evening papers, notifying parties wlo may have plans to preseat or models to place before the | Commissioners toeend them in before August 1, He also reported that thirty-seven persons had sent communications to the commission, elther submitting plang or asking an extension of the time for sending plans im, as the impression had got abroad that no plans would be recetved after yesterday. About two o’clock Board adjourned | until noon to-day; but just before the adjourn- ment an inventor named Hannah, from Onicago, was given a hearing. Tuls action, Mr. Mott says, was taken because Mr. Hannah, who haa been waitiag in the city fof several gays, had to leave for Chicago, Tae explanation did no tisty the other inventors, who were outside, and VERY SEVERE COMMENTS were made upon the action of the commission, One gentlemen who had putin a mode! and bad been turned out of the room approached the writer and satd:—“You are a Henanp reporter, I believe. Have you noticed that they have turned out those inventors who presented models with- out @ hearing and listened to a foreigner who lives beyond the State. You gentlemen of the press, who sheuld bein there noting everything and exposing any favoritism, aro shut out too, The thing looks to me like a regular ‘star cham- per,’ and I protest as an inventor invited here against their sitting with closed doors, When any one of usis explaining his plan all the others should be present and be permitted to listen to bim., The fact that the press is excluded is very suspicious, and the papers should denounce the secret conclave system.” Another inventor declared that he had supposed that they would all be admitted, and that the meeting would be open; but now he felt that if he could get his papers out he would retire from the competition, Indeed, the general sentiment of the inventors was in bitter opposition to the se- cret meetings, Mayor Wickham was closeted with the Commission for over an hoar. AFTER THE ADJOURNMENT Mr. Mott and one or two other members remained and numbered and arranged the models, draw- jogs and pians itor future reference. The police were still kept on guard at the door to exclude reporters and inventors, but about three o'clock two gentlemen, who admitted that they bad no scheme to present, were admitted by the policemen, and remained in the room about fifteen minutes, They were believed by some of the inventors to be lobbyists of some particular pian, and dissatisfaction became more general. ‘rhe Secretary, Mr, Harrison, seemed indisposed to allow the press access to the Information in ts possesion: pleading too much business in the ayor’s office, Some of the Commission expressed their desire tuat the reporters should be furnished the names of parties who have sigaified their in- teption of presentin: 8, but Mr. Harrison could not be found, The reporters danced attend- ance upon the Mayor’s odice uatillatetache after- noon, and fiually one of them got Harrison to leave his desk long enough to say he was too pusy to give them tue names of the parties, The Commissioners resolved to hold sessions every day this week excepting Saturday, begin- pas beon and continulog unt about three DESCRIPTIONS OF DESIGNS, Three modeis were yesterday exhibited before the Commissioners, the ioventors were not afforded ao Opportunity to give any explanation Oi their peculiar meriis. Une was the pian of Kit- chen & Hatdeld, an elevated, double track railway, the sysiem comprising @ Continuvus bridge rest- ing upon iron pos: 1 Se whole bulit of iron in tue e strongest mapaoer. #ides of the bridge would, itis claimed, screen p @ trains from horses im the street, aod by mea length of the framed girders obviate ta tue posts more frequeatiy than one im sixty-five feet, or three posits to @ block, on each side of the rong guard rail of heavy timber on of eacn rail, firmly secured, would wheels from leaving toe track. Tne tween the columns on either side be nineteen feet irom the sidewalk. The average height of the bridge would be eighteen feet. It would take about eighteen mon to finish the road from the Batiery to Harlem, ata cost of $250,000 a mile. It 18 said that thie is the same plau the Third Avenue Railroad Company resolved upon adopting 8.me five years ago. Another model preseated was tha’ of J, H. Han- Rat, Toe special claim of this plan—doubie trace, elevated-is that the cars would run luside the girders, and thereiore could not get off tue track. Tho plan includes supports either by single columne or by columns on either side. Another model exhibited was that of Edwin Gomez. This pian ts a four-track elevated road- way, one of the speciaities being that the tracks would be of tron and wood, the latter being in Bections which could be removed at any time for lepairs, and baviug @ centre stratum of giass, when would help to give # lighter appearauce to the work. The roadway would run irom curb to curd and serve a8 @ protection from the weather for the horse railroads on the street. The pillars would be of cast or wrought iron, hollow, with jackets fast to astring-piece or girder. The tracks ‘would be protected by vated timber rail several inches above them, Cost would be $260,009 @ mile. THE FOLLOWING NOVEL PLAN ‘was submitted by J, Wildam Kohier:—He would erect in tue centre of the road, ut given distances, geverally of Arty jeet, on solid blocks of stove, im- serted In the ground to a depth suficient to secure perfect Stability, three sets of cast iron culumns, at saficient distances from one another necessity of placing sired, On the inner aod firmiy bolted to the centre one, he would freed two cast iron girders to prevent outward jateral movement of the columns and also to pre- Vent oscillation generally. On the capitals of each set o! columns Would place a wrought iron girder on the latitce princivie, thus giving space four two tracks, wn up and down line, the dimensions of which, as of the supporting colamns, varying with the span, Avove the lower flanges of these girders, and firm'y bolted to the perpendicular webs, would = be piaced continucas suliably Sheped trons to support #mali wrought iron gird- er pon which wouid be laid for eace track three balks of timber, two of which would carry tie chairs th whica would be tuserted doubie & steel rails, on which to rau the locomot cars, A salety rail of wrought jron wouid alse be placed to act 48a goardratl Tne cars would be prevented ‘rom leaving the track by fixing be- heath each track a couple of strong wrought iron crutches with steel yolers, which, without touch- ing the centre rall, would be bent under the upper ange, leaving three-quarters of an inch play on the uncer side, and also on either side of the rail, itis claimed that if the care jumped or met wits an obstacie On the rails the ends Of the cratehes, by fils arraugement, would come im contact wity the under side of tue upper Mange of tue ral, and thus prevent the cars beiug elevated any bigher of the raiis, On the centre girder a rack for insulators would be placed, carryieg all tae city velegraph lines binte | the route, The floor of the passenger cars Would be om @ level with the top of the two out. side girders. A continuous platform, sour feet Wide, would run the whole lengtm of the road on either side of the viaducts for the up and down track, At the stations slong the route a light double wrought iron lattice girder would be threwn from the main girder (supported at its fanetion by two light iron columns) te the second story of the nearest house from the sidewalk, a staircase leading up to the second floor, which would be plannea out with ticket office, &e. Tne plan gives iurther details a8 to engines wo be used, ae, SUSPECTED INCENDIAR There is some reason to believe that the recent destruction Of Marston & Co.’s wooden Ware manu- factory in New Jersey was the work o! an incen- diary, As there was no insurance on the building or machinery the loss faila heavy on the owners, Aciew has been obtained which may suer*ty load to the arrest of the suspected parties, i. BROOKLYN POLICE REORGANIZATION. EXCITEMENT AMONG THE MEMBERS ON THE FORCE—THE DETECTIVES AND THE PAWN- BROKERS, ‘The sole topic of conversation in police circles Of Brooklyn yesterday was the action of the Board of Commisstoners demanding information upon knotty questions of alleged delinquency on the part of she directors of eMciency among the rank and fle, The entire police force does not exceed 500 meD, and tnis force has to patrol ap area of territory as large as New York and pro- tect the lives ana property of half a milion of people, or @bout one-half the population of Gotham.

The police captains made their reports of the number of robberies, a8 called for by the order of the Board, to the Superintendent yesteruay morning, and Mr, Folk will make his generai re- ort tO morrow, As soon as the Commissioners shall have digested the force and meaning of the fortheoming answer to their querte: promanl ery symptoms of a lively th ‘omictal hi do not snccumd to the di guillotine, then there ts nothing to be tear! by prophecy.
