NEW YORK HERALD, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 26, 1875--QUINTUPLE SHEET. THE COURTS. The James B, Taylor Will Case Again—Spirit- ualistic Developments, WIDOW TAYLOR AND RUFUS F. ANDREWS. Motion for Substitution of Counsel—De- cision Reserved. Very few cases during the past five years have occn- pied more the attention of the courts than what is popularly known as the ‘Taylor will case.” James B, Taylor, a record of whose career has been so often pub- lished in connection with the prolonged litigation over his will as to render it unnecessary to repeat here, fied on the 22d of August, 1870. It was believed that be died intestate until several weeks after- ward his will, or rather a document claiming to be his last testament, was found snugly hidden away in a volume of “Benton's Thirty Years in the United Btates Senate,” By the terms of this instrument the bulk of his estate, valued af some $700,000, was devised to his wife, Mrs. Laura §."faylor, Upon offering the document for probate Mrs. Kate B. Howland entered a Protest against it on the ground that it was a forgery. And here a rather curious story is told, While Mrs. Howland claims to be a niece and heir of the deceased, and is declared by Mrs, Taylor to be ber Diece, an affidavit hag been made in other Proceedings touching the right to the estate that she ‘was no blood relation, but an adopted daughter of the decedent, and that he had always treated her as his own daughter. The proceedings before the Surrogate lasted some three months, which resulted in Surrogate Hutch- ings admitting the will to probate. An appeal was taken to the Supreme Court, General Term, where, the decree of the Surrogate having been affirmed, the caso was carried to the Court of Appeals, Before the latter tribunal there was a very lengthy argument, Senator | Kernan being one of the counsel who appeared for Mrs. | Taylor. By the Court the decision of the Surrogate was reversed, and the case remitted to the Supreme Court for trial by jury. When the will was first offered for probate Mrs, Taylor employed Rufus F, Andrews as her | counsel, In May last she notified him by letter that | she did not require his professional services any | Jonger, ant, upon such notification, a notice to substitute other counsel was made in the Supreme Court, This motion came up for argu- ment yesterday, before Judge Donohue, in Supreme Court, Chambers. There ‘was a large crowd in attend- ance, and the proceedings, being from their very nature of special interest to the legal fraternity, were listened to with marked interest by the throng of lawyers | Present, Colonel George W. Wingate appeared for the widow and in support of the motion for substitution of counsel, while on behalf of Mr. Andrews there appeared | ex-United States Attorney Samuel G. Courtney and Mr. | Richard Busted, APFIDAVIT OF MRS. TAYLOR, The proceedings opened with the reading, by Colonel | Wingate, of Mrs. Taylor’s affidavit, After reciting the facts connected with the probate of the will and the employment of Mr. Andrews as her counsel in all matters relating to her estate, she avers that, although the continued to allow bim toact in that capacity and followed his suggestions and advice almost implicitly | i op to May last, yet during this period | her confidence in him, although not destroyed, | was so greatly impaired that she frequently | arged him to employ other counsel to co-operate with | him, but without success. In tnis connection she | quotes from a letter of Mr. Andrews to her, which, if | not in the Beecher vein of epistolary literature, at least | quotes from the great Brooklyn preacher, the quotation being as foliows:—‘I do not propose to battle the enemy in front and be bothered constanty by a set of designing scoundrels and fools, who are putting up jobs | in the rear. * * * You’ need have no further trouble with me. I propose to ‘step down and out,” aud then you can have such lawyers as you and your advisers choose. I do not propose to discuss the subject | further. ‘Try your new friends, and let me know when ye find another as faithful as I have been.” Mrs, lor then goes on to say that she received very little money all this time, and a mort. gage on her house was foreclosed, She got Ro satisfaction as to what was going on, and the | And in every instance all these departed lawyers have approved everything that I was doing in the management Of the affairs of said estate, 1 further say that on every ‘occasion when I have been called upon to receive theee communications from the medium, one has purported to emanate from the said James B, Taylor, the husband of the sald Laura 8, Taylor, and he also. has signified his approval. of my course, That all these various bequests on the part of the said Laura 8. Taylor, and this disposition on her part vo be governed by spiritual communications, a8 to the management of her affairs as executrix, led me to believe, as I did believe, that, while it was my duty to treat hor with great kindness and affection, at the same time not to accept her {idement as to the conduct of Dusiness affairs, and I have, therefore, mainly relied upon the executor and my associate counsel for judg- ment and advice.” In this connection Mr. Andrews inserts a letter re- ceived by himself from Mrs. Taylor, bearing date the 6th of May last, and directed to him as “Dear Rufus,” which letter closes as follows:—‘tNow, dear Rufus, Kate Fox is coming to see me this afternoon. 1 wish that you would come, so that you can have a talk with Jim, We will see what he has to say. Do Rot fail to come unless something urgent prevents.” He states in explanation that the Kate Fox referred to is the celebrated Kate Fox, the spiritual medium, and that the ‘Jim’? referred to is the laté James B. Taylor, the deceased husband of .Mrs, Taylor. Owing to another engagement it was impossible for him to comply with the requests of Mrs, Taylor; but as the letter of substitution was written on the day following resumes that it must have been suggested by some spirit that Wingate and Cullen be substituted in is place,” ADVANCES TO MRS. TAYLOR, Mr. Andrews proceeds to give quite an account of dis- bursements and advances alleged to have been mado by him to Mrs. Taylor, He brings her in debt to him ip the sum of $8,563 69 for money thus advanced, and says that Mrs. Taylor has frequently told him ‘that except for the money so advanced she would have been turned into the streets and become a beggar.” He adds that he has ner notes for the money, DESIGNING TRICKSTERS, Mr. Andrews says that during the ~ spring he has discovered the fact that Mrs. Taylor has been receiving visits from persons not of any professional standing, some of whom he knows to be designing tricksters without moral character. A brief quotation from this portion of the affidavit has in itan interesting sugges- tiveness, ‘One of these individuals,” says the affl- davit, “who still frequents her house she informed me had advised her that ifacertain firm of lawyers could be retained as her attorneys and counsel a political in- fluence could be brought to bear, and which would assure her success in the courts.” WHAT THE EXECUTOR SAYS, ‘The remainder of the affidavit is taken up with vari- ous matters, the principal point of interest being a let- ter from Edward H. Tracy, executor, now deceased, directing him (Andrews) not to turn over to Mrs. Tay- lor the papers in his hands relating to the estate, as he desired to continue his services in the management of the property and suits. OTHAR APPIDAVITS. ‘Three other affidavits were made in opposition to the motion, made respectively by George H. Duryea, Will- jam T. Monteverde and Henry C. Mattison. Mr. Dur- yea, who was confidential clerk of Mr. Taylor, and has since resided with Mrs. Taylor, states that the latter has been kept fully apprised by Mr. Andrews of all the steps taken in her suits, and bas always expressed un- bounded confidence in him. Mr, Monteverde ts the managing clerk of Mr. Andrews, and heconfirms the statement of the advances by Mr. Andrews to Mrs. Tay- lor. Mr. Mattson had general supervision of the Utica claime against the Taylor estate. He says Mrs. Taylor always expressed to him her implicit confidence in the professional skill and integrity of Mr. Andrews, A sup- plemental affidavit of Mr. Andrews explains that he would pot have loaned Mrs. Taylor money had it not been for their relations as client and counsel and his assurance that it would be repaid to him from the es- | tate, ARGUMENT OF COUNSEL. The papers on both sides having ail been read the opposing counsel proceeded to argue the law points in- volved in the case. Colonel Wingate, who opened the forensic fire, said that he was willing that Mr. Andrews should bring an action to recover whatever might be due him for his professional services, He insisted that _ Mr. Andrews could lose nothing through the substitu- tion, He did not see why Mr. Andrews should not take the position ofany other creditor. He insisted that the whole thing was in a nutshell; that Mra. Taylor had become disgusted with Andrews; that sho wished to employ other counsel in his stead, and that she had a perfeet right to do so, Mr. Courtney made an elaborate response. He said that this was a motion of great importance as affecting counsel, There was a time when, at the whim and ca- price of aclient, an attorney could be removed. That day was passed, The courts had interfered to protect the rights of counsel, He relied upon rule 15, adopted by the Convention of Judges last year, directing that ‘‘an attarne; hie be changed by consent or upon application of the client upon catise shown and upon sach terms as shall be just, by the order of the Court or a judge thereof, and not otherwise.” He elaborated the points of this rule at great length, Mr. Busteed contended, in further opposition to the motion, that the right of a litigant to change an attor- hey Was not an unqualified or absolute one; that the exercise of this right had always been under the re- strictive powers of the courts, of which attorneys are officers. This restraining power of the Court would be | exercised of its own motion if it appeared that the best imterests of all the persons concerned in the estate of the deceased would be conserved by denying the motion to substitute, He argued that Mrs. Taylor’s present unfitness to select a new at- torney was ipparent on the opposing papers, and that at all events 1t would be premature to anticipate what action the Surrogate’s Court woula take in respect of counterfeit. They then visited the Atlantic Garden, drank beer and again tendered the bill. Captain Ken- nock, of the United States Secret Service, immediately arrested the men and took them before Commissioner Shields, who held them for examination. Yesterday the examination was held and the young men dis- charged, it being shown that they had no guilty knowledge of the character of the bill. The further hearing of testimony relative to the will of Eliza Hearsey, contested by her direct heirs, was FALL FASHIONS.

From there he went to the corner of Forsyth and Grand streets, and after emerg- in from that place he remembered nothing till he was arraigned at the police court this morning for drunkenness and disorderly conduct. His fine was paid and he was discharged. The sailor then discovered that he had been robbed of acheck for his baggage on the Pennsylvania Railroad, and went to the Eldridge street station house and stated his case to Captain Ulman, who detailed Detective Mul- Jen to attend to it. Detective Mullen repaired to the office of the company, found the carman who had removed the baggage and traced it to No. 17 Chrystie street, where he found aman, named Richard Confrey, whom be brought before Judge Smith, at the Essex Market Police Court yesterday, and who was idenufied by Joseph | Walsh. Confrey was committed in $1,000 bail to answer by Justice Smith, FIFTY-SEVENTH STREET COURT. Before Judge Kasmire. A SHAMELESS HOTEL FRAUD. | Herman G. Uebel was arrested for obtaining board | and lodging at the Windsor Hotel and refusing to pay for the same, ‘The fact was he did not have the means to pay. His large, heavy trunk contained only a‘largs | stone placed therein, he admitted to the Court, ‘to give the impression that it was full of clothing, 80 that he might be admitted to hotels and boarding houses to | rocure food and lodging without paying for the same.” Fre was sent to the Isiaud for a year in default of $1,000 bail to be of good behavior for that time, POLICE COURT NOTES.

They were taken before Justice Otterbourg at the | Tombs Police Court, and held in $1,000 bail tach to an- | swer. John W.

The details of s modern lady's tollet, and, indeed, their name is legion, are set forth on Broadway behind plate glass windows with a profusion perfectly be- wildering. Bonnets, dress materials, flowers, feathers, embroideries, laces and a thousand other accessories of that complex structure in which the female form di- vine should be encased, according to Dame Fashion’ latest order, are exhibited to thousands of inquiring and admiring daughters of Eve, lately returned from the mountain, seaside or spa, The great thoroughfare, which may be termed the principal boast of the me: tropolis, ig ascene of brilliancy and gayety this week, The modistes have put on their most charming smiles, and welcome back their customers in such a winning manner that it would seem impossible for the latter to resist them. Now there is a group of fair ones around a “sweet dress” or a “puck ov a mat,” and quite a little contest us to who shall be tho fortunate purchaser. Again, the gay equipages which have been during the sum- mer months the delight of Newport, Saratoga or the Branch, once more are seen on Broadway and the avenue, and “stop the way” at every noted mart of fashion. Over twenty large establishments hold their expost- tions of fall fashions this week, and the attractions are preater than during any previous season. It is a grati- Hing feature of Unis season’s fashions that a very noticeable absence of extravaganco in dress may be ob- served, Curtailment and retrenchment in expense of toilets have been acquiesced m even by the terrible Mrs. Grundy, One excellent retorm of late years is the cus- tom of adapting the dress to the demi-saison, There is no longer the abrupt change from light summer to heavy winter toilets, but a gradual transition in ac- cordance with the season. This is, indeed, sensibl for, in a climate like ours, where it is diflicult to calc: late upon the changes ot the weather, AN “ADAPTABLE”? TOLLBY 18 NREDED. A very important change in the toilet for the coming season will be the revival of the long outside cloak as an independent garment. It will replace the short Jacket for street wear and will do away to some extent With the suit, Such a change will be resisted by many ladies, as it allows less margin for drapery and graceful arrangement of tunics and overskirts. But, as itis convenient and will suit any dress without requiring the critical eye of an “artiste” to preside over it, this independent garment will not be without its adherents, The changes in millinery are very novel and becoming, although many of the favorite shapes of the summer are continued. To-day and Thursday will be the prin- cipal opening days of the present season, and the homes of the modistes will be radiant with toilets and belles, ‘THE INFLUENCE OF PARIS, representing several hundred dollars, ‘The liquor store at No, 473 Third avenue is owned by | a foreman over the Boulevard laborers, but he has not paid fora license, His bartender, William Jourdan, was arrested on Friday evening aud was held for trial by Justice Kasmire, | Charles Reed, nineteen years of age, was arraigned for stealing a whip, and his arrest was probably the in hig possession three pieces of candle and askeleton | key capable of opening almost any lock.

The court ladies made those princesses their models, and thus French fashions were established. Anne of Austria brought them to the highest piteh of extravagance, and found many imitators in the other courts of Europe. OUR HEROES’ GRAVES. WEEDING OUT THE TARES.

In pronouncing sentence on him the committee declared that Curran’s action in defending Post, who was proved guilty of in regard to the case is very bitter, as Curran was elected in the interest of reform and good government. When called on to explain his action he defied his con- stituents and said he wanted office no longer. NOT WANTING THEM. The Queens County Board of Supervisors, on the 25th of August last, passed resolutions that prisoners sen- tenced m the county to sixty days’ imprisonment and less than one year should be sent to the Kings County Penitentiary, in accordance with an arrangement made with the Board of Snpervisors of that county, It is now understodd that Sheriff Sammis, of Queens county, refuses to so transfer the prisoners from his jurisdiction, on the grounds that the commitm made since the resoluuions were passed by the Super- visors simply specify the County Juil as the place of confinement, and do not order a transfer to any other institution.

Ruggles; that the order was filed on the 24th of No- , vember, 1874, and that during all this period he had been making preparations for the trial of the case, Ho states further that shortly after the order of reference was made Mrs. Taylor informed hit that friendly rela- tions were about being established between herself and the plaintiff; that she desired him to suspend further action as to the trial until directed by her; that on the 23d day of September, 1874, a writ of prohibition was granted py Judge Donohue, prohibiting the executor and executrix from doing anything whatever concerning the property be- longing to the estate of Mr. Taylor, with an order to show cause why the writ should not be continued ; that ‘the papers he prepared in the case were voluminous and difficult; that there were seyeral arguments; that pending'an appeal from Judge Douohy’s decision to the General Term an appeal was taken in eight suits then pending in Oneidacounty, which ha en de- cided adversely to the executor and executrix by the Genctal Term of the Fourth Department; that these involved additional labor, and that, pending all these matters, he was kept constantly and assiduously em- ployed; that in all these proceedings he was suc- cessful, and that the utmost satisfaction was expressed yy Mrs. Taylor in regard to bis professional conduct. | ie next explains how he endeavored to protect Mrs. Taylor’s property against foreciosure and that the failure was no fault of his. He charges all the alleged delays tothe numerous motions interposed on bebalf ‘of the plaintiff, which motions, he says, were made for the purposes of delay and nothing elso, In reference to the motion for substitution in the several cases pend- ing tn Oneida county, he says he opposed the same because the affidavits upon which it was based were mainly untrue and because he deemed the proceedings ry OUTRAGE ON HIS PROVESSIONAL ConpvCT and made without justifiable cause or excuse. As to the general allegation of dissatisfaction, he says that the Urst {ntimation he ever had of anything of the kind was a letter dated the 17th day of May, 1874, but reach- ing bim a week later, bearing the signature of Mrs. Tay- lor, in which she states that she has made arrange- ments with Messrs, Wingate & Cullen and asks hin \o deliver over to them all the papers in his possession ‘appertaining to the same. In this connection he states for three years past he bad been greatly annoyed vy the persistent requests of Mrs. Taylor to associate with him other counsel; that, pursuant to such re- quest, he did employ Mr. Edward W. Stoughton, Ros- coe Conkling and Franeis Kiernan; that she men- tioned humerous other persons she wished yahomes t# counsel; that in the conduct of the litigation be has deen a frequeut visitor at her house; that he has told ore in connection with the progress of the tite, SPITS AS LEGAL MEDIUMS.
