8 THE COURTS. The Rose Michel Dramatic Controversy. PRELIMINARY ARGUMENT OF COUNSEL. “around the World Eighty Days.” in The legal controversy as to the proposed prodnetion. of the drama “Rose Michel,” at the Fifth Avenue Thea~ tro, is beginning to assume a phase of interest in the courts. A temporary injunction was recently granted by Judge Freedman, holding Superior Court, Chambers, restraining Mr. Daly from producing the play and Messrs. Simmonds and Wall, dramatic agents, from parting with any copy of the drama, and the case came, ap for argument yesterday before Judge Curtis, on the prder to show cause why the injunction should not be continued. The tacts of the case having been heretofore published in the Hxxanp it is unnecessary to repeat them. Ex-Judge Dittenhoefer and C. W. Brooke ap- peared for the applicants for the injunction, William D. Booth for Mr. Daly and W. E. Smith for Simmondsaind’ Wall. After the reading by Judge Dittenhoefer of the cem-- nt and other papers for the plaintiffs Mr. Booth. sed preliminary objections to the entire proceedtng. Heq*laimed tat the bill 1s fatally defective through: its. mult farious character in seeking judgmeat and relief againn two different parties of different character; that. the sam* was demurrable on its tacts, becahise seworal causes of, action are improperly united, and, jastly,. that Yhore wast fatal variance ot proof. The decision upon ‘these objections being temporarily waived, Mr. ‘Booth coded to read the papers on his sede, the ripei yone being the affidavit of M s In which ‘he latter, among other things, states at he purch ased the play “Rose Michel” from Brnest Blum, bat for 24 it untit for production bet ore Fifth Avenue Theatn ‘audiences, and subsequently purchased B translation of it from the codefendants; th at it was a “vicious French drama” as it came into defendant's hands, and that s' Was after defendant puri shased the play from the Em ‘lish agents, Simmonds & Wail, that plainti® commen ced to apply for purchase Yo the author, in deflance of a — previous wale to one I.

Some considerable | sparring ‘ensued when Mr, Sm&°h entered on the rea Bing of his papers on behalf of Sit umonds and Wall, the princpial paper being an aifdavk’ of the latter maki ag a gen- eral denial of the allegat'ons in the complaint.. ‘We challenge the oth er side to put in t aeir manu- script of the play,” ramarked Judge Di ttenhoefer. “Ours is tn, aad we want theirs in.” “We decline the challenge,” answered Mr. Booth, “put if the gentlemen wish «9 see the play, they can do ‘80 by going om Bext Monday*night to the F ifth Avenue eatre. a ‘Not if this injunctionis coutinued,”” retorted Judge ittenhoofer. ‘An affidvit was read by My.

Another theatrical squabble suitilms been brought in the Superior Court by Thomas Henry French, and the Kiralfys, who claim a proprietary right in the play “Around the World in Eighty Days,” to restrain James 3H. Connolly and Charles M, Pili'et from further pro- ducing the above named play, or @ny adaptation of it, The plaintiffs’ claim is that the noy el is dramatized by Jts author, Jules Verne, and one 1¥Fnnery sold the ‘copyright to Theodore Michaelis, and tieat the copyright was 8 uently assigned by Michaelis: to the plaintiffs, The defence claim that they dramatized the play them- selves from M. Verne’s novel; that the ir version dif. fers in many essential points from that of plaintatts’; ‘and that the play produced by plaintiffs dé ‘fers in esisen- ‘tual points from the French version, of whnich they:par- vhased the copyright.

BECONVEYANCE THE DUTY OF TRUSTEES—BAR- REN TRUSTS—-WHEN TO BE MADE, Wasnixerox, Sept. 9, 1875. Ira G, French, plaintiff in error, vs. Thomas Edwards, W. T. Carothers et al.—in error to the Circuit Court for | the District of California.-Mr. Justice Swayne deliv- ered the opinion of the Court. The plaintiff in error was the plaintiff in the Court below. The action was ejectment. The case was submitted to the Court with- out the intervention of a juty. The Court found the face and gave judgment for the defendants, The plain- tiff thereupon sued out this writ of error. The facts are found here: 1. That Robert H. Vance, on the Ist of March, 1862, | was seized in fee of the premises in controversy. 2. That on that day he conveyed the premises to the plaintiff, who thereupon became seized and the owner in fee, and that he continued such owner until the 9th of January, 1863. 3. That on that day he and the defendants exeented a | Joint conveyance of the premises to Edward Martin and Franeis E.

A court of eq e bene- if ap- be presumea they discharged that duty rather than that they violated it by continuing to hold on to the ttle. The trust was executory. When its execution became impossible, common honesty, their duty, and the law required that they should at once give back to the donor the legal utle which he had given to them. The conclusion of law that the ttle was still in the trustees was, therefore, a manifest error; on the con- t y, itshould have been presumed that Martin and Edwards had reconveyed, and that the title had thas become reinvested in the plaintiff, and the Court should have adjudged accordingly. The judgment is, therefore, reversed, and the case will be remanded to the Cirenit Court, with directions to proceed in conformity with this opinion. CONTINUATION OF OFFICER MALONEY’S CASE— ANOTHER ADJOURNMENT. The cas@ of Patrolman Maloney, of the Twenty-ninth precinct, was again called up before Commissioners nth avenne Wednesday night, and found in his pos Matsell and Voorhis, holding Court yesterday at Police session a quantity of pawn tickets representing the | Headquarters. Hon, A. Oakey Halli appeared for the roperty. The prisoner was held in $2,000 bail | geronce, Counsellor Mel.can conducted the prosecu- tion. The first witness called was Mrs. Sellie Moultrie, the proprietor of a house of ill repute on Thirty-first street, who testified: — About two years ago a man dressed in citizen's clothes called at my house and asked me what I was going todo for the captam. He gaye me to understand that I would have to pa to save my house from being raided; he represented himself as coming from the Captain of the Twenty-ninth precinct, The witness was here confronted with Officer Maloney but would not swear he was the man who had called, Mrs, Moultrie continued :— The man who called was, 1 think, taller and stouter than Officer Male am not good at remembering faces; about two w erward another person waited on me and represented himself as Captain McCullough and demanded $50 of me; I paid him that amount and he left; never saw him afterward to my knowledge; cannot swear that Captain McCullough whom T see here was the person who obtamed the money from me; he is not so large as was the person I saw; that was all r paid to police; have been so approached since. After a cross-examination of the witness by ex-Mayor Hall, in which no new material facts were elicited, Mary Hendri a woman of the same class, took the stand, and swore to never having told David J. Twohie that she had been importuned by the police to pay money for the protection of her house, The case was here adjourned until the 21st inst. at ten A. M. OTHER TRIALS, More model policemen pleaded not guilty to the vari- ous misdemeanors charged against them yesterday be- fore Commissioner Smith. The cases, however, were of the ordinary character and of no general importanee. QUARANTINE INVESTIGATION. ves Ne \ COST OF DIX AND HOFFMAN ISLANDS. The Assembly committee continued its investigation into Quarantine matters at Castle Garden yesterday. The first witness was John W. Ritch. Was architect of Islands Nos, land 2—engineer and architect; was appointed January 15, 1866, and continued to April 1, 1871; Drs. Swinburne and Carnochan were Health OM- cers; I designed the lower Island No, 1 and the lower Island No, 2, the only construction work I supervised except the small boathouse; kept a record of certifi- cates given contractors; the rip rap was measured by an inspector on the island, and each car was measured before it went down there; $3 per yard was paid for the mp raps; it was duly advertised; think the work done there was as low as it could be done under the circumstances—those were high priced times; from October 28 to December 27, 1867, there wero only 142 hours’ work done; after the islands were com- menced the necessities of the case rendered it necessary to put the rip raps in; many obsta- cles were interposed by the elements; the first con- 4 tract was mado fdr a gross sum, without any regard to quantity; the second contract was by the cubic yard— Island No, 2; it is not invariably the usual way, it 1s the eafost way; when work is done by measurement it is the safest way; in all cases the work should be clearly shown by plans and the specifications can be duly se- | lected; the place and specifications were made by me with a detatied estimate of their cost; that report was | sent to the Legislature and an appropriation male | thereon; what is unprecedented in the history of State contracts, the contract price was less than the original estimate of the engineer; the amount of rip rap‘in | Island No. 1 necessary, owing to the action of the ele- ments, was considerable more than first estimated— the drifting of the sand adding to the difficulty and de- Jay of the work; my work was altogether confined to the construction on the islands; have not visited them sinee April, 1871, the date of my resignation, The witness, in answer to an interrogatory from ex- Governor Alvord, gave his opinion of the creation of those islands and the temporary structures erected thereon, explaining the action of the drifting sands and the object of wooden buildings easy of removal or de- struction when infected by contagion; the islands are becoming daily more solid, and are not likely to affect navigation; the soundings taken at different intervals demonstrate the satisfactory nature of the work. This closed Mr. Riteh’s testimony. Then it was stated by Messrs, Vosburg and Waehner that the Sergeant-at-Arms was at Dr. Carnochan's bonse several times, and Mr. Waehner addressed him a polite note, but he did not deem the committee deserv- ing the courtesy of a reply. It was announced by Mr. Schnyler, chairman pro tem., that as there were no more witnesses present the meeting was adjourned till to-day. BROOKLYN INCENDIARISM.

The work will ‘also be done with much grvater efficieney and expedi tion. The Park Commissioners have just appointed Mr. Edgar S. Van Winkle as engineer and surveyor of street improvements and are now engaged in perfect: ing the details of his office.
