} } | | THE COURTS. po A THE TWEED SIX MILLION SUIT Decision on the Appeal from the Supreme Court, General Term, Decisions. A Stay of Proceedings Denied and Case Ordered to Speedy Trial. ‘i A decision was given yesterday by Judge Lawrence, in Supreme Court, Chambers, upon the motion argued before him on the day previous for a stay of proceed- ings upon the decisions recently granted in the Tweed six million suit by the Supreme Court, General Term, ‘The object of the stay was to make an appeal to the Court of Appeals, which, however, does not meet till the 9th of next month, Judge Lawrence, as will be seen by the opinion given below, denies the motion, which will compel the case to be brought to trial before the Supreme Court, Circuit, on the first Monday of next month. The following is the opinion:— OPINION OF JUDGE LAWRENCE. Amotion is made on the part of the defendant for:— First—An order staying all proceedings until the de- fendants’ appeals to the Coartof Appeals from the orders made by tho General Term herein, on the Sth and 9th of October, shall be heard and determined, &c, Second. Jat an order made to extend the time for said defendant to answer until the said appeals shall be heard, &c. Third—The notice of motion is also for such other and farther order as may be just. ‘Tho order of the 8th of October is an order of the General Term of this department reversing an order made at Special Term of Mr, Justice Donohue, requir- ped the plaintiffs to serve an amended complaint speci- 1g :— oyna What right and interest in the promises the Mayor, Aldermen aod Commonalty set up or pretend to, Second—Requiring the plaintiff either to strike out tion of the complaint or to state that they do not rely upon the allegations therein contained as a cause of action, or that the plaintiffs shall strike out so much of thecomplaint as sets forth fraud, conspiracy or com- bination on the part of the defendants Tweed and Nelsox, ‘Third—Requiring the plaintiffs to serve a bill of par- ticulars of their claim upon the defendant. The order of the deneral Term affirming an order made at Special Term by Mr, Justice Barrett, denying a motion to re- duce the amount of bail ordered to be given by the de- fendant in a previous order for nis arrest. ‘Yhe granting of the stay of proceedings upon this ap- Peal rests in the discretion of the Court, and the ques- tion for determination is whether on the papers before me a proper caso is made out for the exercise of the discretionary power. One of the orders appealed from among other mutters provides, as nas already been Stated, that the plaintilfs shall turnigh to the defendant & Dill of particulars, The granting of a bill of partic- ulars algo rests in the discretion of the Court, and it is settled that orders which rest purely in the discretion of the Court below are not appealable to the Court of Appeals. This has been held in numerous cases (Gedney vs. Purdy, 47th N. Y., 676; Jarley vs. Graham, 48th N. Y., 658; ‘People vs, Behorncher, 50th N. ¥., 499; Paul vs. Munger, 47th N. Y., 469), ahd in the caso of Tilton vs. Beecher fags Howard, 178) the Court of Appeals held expressly that they would pot decide whether the Court below in the exercise of its discre- tion, should grant or refuse a bill of particulars. The appeal in that case was entered solely on the ground that the Court below had refused to give the bill to the next of power todo so. In the light of this decision it would seem to be improper to grant a stay so fur as the appeal relates to the order refusing a bill of partic- ulars, as it is apparent that such an appeal must be nu- peg A portion of the order of Mr. Justice Donohue lenied the motion on the part of the defendant to strike out parts of the complaint, As to this part of the order, it woula appear from the provisions of the 4th subdivision of the 11th section of the Code of Pro- cedure that there can be no appeal. As it seems clear from the authorities cited that no part of the orders of the 8th of October are receivable by the Court of Ap- | peers and that said appeals must be dismissed by that uri, Ithink that it would be improper for me to grant the stay applied for, An order for» stay in and bf an appeal, which the appellate court, in similar tases has frequently declared it would not entertain, would seem to be an unwarrantable exerciso.of power. ‘Again, the General Term of this department, in the opinion delivered on the settlement of these orders, has expressed its opinion virtually upon the question sub- mitted for my consideration. 1t has declared that, as there was no stay of proceedings by the order appealed from, the strict legal result of the reversal of that order ‘Was that the defendant’s time to answer or demur had ired, and after discussion on the settlement of this ler the General Term grapted to the defendant sev- eral days in which to answer, stating that such a pro- vision would leave the plaintiff sufficient time to notice the cause for trial at the Novemrber Circuit, ‘The effect of granting a stay would practically be to set at naught the order of the appellate Court, made after a full examimation of the case and atter hearing the parties, So fur as the application for a stay relates to the order affirming the order of Mr, Justice Barrett I {eel myself obliged to deny the motion, on the ground that the General Term has, by 1ts opinion and decision above referred to, left me no alternative. As 1 cannot grant the stay without assuming to qualify or modify tunditions deliberately imposed by the General Term, after hearing I am obliged to deny the motion. SETTLING THR ORDER. Directly following the giving of the opinion an order was prepared by counsel in accordance with its direc- A CITY RAILROAD COMPANY MULOTED IN DAMAGES. On the 13th of May, 1871, as Emily Furst, five years vid, was crossing Second avenue, at Sixth street, on an wrrand for her invalid mother, who has since died, she was run over by a Second Avenue Railroad car, causing injuries which resulted in the amputation of herarm. Suit was brought against the railroad company for $20,000 damages. The case waa brought to trial before Judge J. F. Daly in the Court of Common Pleas, On bebalf of the plaintiff Mrs. Cook, a lady who witnessed the accident, testified that the child was srossing the avenue when the car, which was driven ‘apidly, the horses being on a gallop, struck her, and shat the driver had his head turned aside and was mak- ‘hg gestures at the shop girls who were on the sidewalk. Opon the part of the defence it was proven that the car was going ata slow rate of speed and while passing some new buildings on the avenue where a pile of build- Ing materials. had been placed the child unexpectedly ran out on the track and against the centre of the car, where the break chains caught her, which resulted in the injuries complained of. An amusing episode of the trial was the cross-ex- ‘mination by Mr. Chauncey Shafer of the driver of the tar, Michael Toumey, who testified that he was at proses engaged ae curt driver for the company, bat as his employment since the day of the accident, as to dates, he was oblivious; he could not tell how many passengers were in the car, because it was not bis busi- hess to count them, and if the counsel himself were there as driver he would find it enough to do to attend to his horses, “Now, on that Sp down, did you make any signs or gostures to any shop girls or other women?’ asked Mr, Shafer. ‘The witness (with indignity)—“No, sir; Iam not one of that kind; 1 have got one woman, and that ts enough for me without going for another; by gosh, I have got one; I cannot keep her even without getting another; I wish you would assist me to keep her,” aay ce did you see any lady on the sidewalk that “No; but I seen women, Could not you sce them yourself in the streot every day?” ‘ ‘You say you are driving a cart now ?”” ‘That ie just what lam, and you would not like it yourself.” “What were you doing after this accident happened ?” “Well, I will just tell you, sir, I was working up at Kingsbridge and High Bridge—and you know where that is—until the ‘dimicrats’ got out of power, and they burst me out, That is honest, indeed. They put I wanted a soft thing, and I got it; but it did tot hist long.” * Upon beng further interrogated as to his occupation from the time of the accident until his last employ- ment by the company he could not give precise dates, and, turning to Judgo Daly, eaid, “It Tam asked by a ered like you I can tell you, but I don’t want to bothered."’ Several doctors were examined asto whether another amputation of the stump would be necessary, and they testified that it would not, and also that the child's growth was retarded from the shock resulting from the Qccident, Mr, Scribner moved for a dismissal of the complaint upon several grounds, and submitted that, upon the evidence, it was a case of contributive hegligenco; that the mother of the child was alsu negligent in allowing one of such tender years to go on the public streets unattended. Jude Daly, in charging the Jury, left it to them to say whether the negligence ‘was on the part of the’company or the child, and in an orute charge defined the legal distinctions between negligence and contributive neghgence. ‘The jury retired and, a(ter being out some two hours, brought in a verdict for $5,000 for the plaintim, COURT OF OYER AND TERMINER. Before Judgo Barreet, 4 NEGRO CONVICTED OF MANSLAUGHTER IN THE FOURTH DEGREE AND IS SENTENCED TO ONE YEAR IN THE PENITENTIARY, In the Court of Oyer and Tormimer, Thomas Sorrell, scolored man, was placed on trial yesterday before Judge Barrett, Assistant District Attorney Lyon ap- pearing for the prosecution, and Messrs, Poter Mitchell and Robert H, Racey for the prisoner, Tho facts elicited were that on the 18th of last July, at the cor- ner of Broome and Thompson sireots, the prisoner was violently assaulted with a razor by two notorious Righth Ward rougus, Bully’? Honry and Jeff Saunders; that after tho prisoner had lof tho place where he Bad boon assoulied, ho called the attention of-Oflesr | NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 15, 1875.-TRIPLE SHEET. "Larken to the fact that Henry and Saunders had cut -him, and pointed in the direction taken by Saunders nd Henry, who were running away ; that Sorrell followed son after the officer, and Immediately thereafter he was followed by « large crowd of friends of Henry and Saunders, who sbouted at Sorrell, and that Sorrell fearing ‘that his life was ‘in danger, an seeing that he was hotly pursued by about 100 persons, who pressed closely upon him, put his hand in his pocket and pulled out aknife, with which he stabbed one man to the heart, named Peterson, who subse- quently died, and alsoa man who is now in the hospital, ‘The evidence all tended to show that Sorrell, who had been brutally cut and wounded by a razor, became frenzied and acted like one crazy, and being a stranger in the neighborhood and knowing the character of his assailants, feared that his life was in imminent danger and struck the two men with the knife in self-defence. His counsel claimed that the acts of Sorrell were justi- flable and submitted a number of points in regard to the Jaw of self-defonce which were charged to the jury by Judge Barrett. The jury, after being out one hour, Drought in a verdict of manslaughter in the fourth degree, with a recommendation to mercy. Judge Bar- rett sentenced him to tho Penitentiary for one year, DECISIONS. SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS, By Judge Lawrence. King vs, Westervelt; Sedgwick vs. Bristed; King vs, Westervelt.—Granted.

In the United States District Court yesterday, Judge Blatchford presiding, Henry Marston pleaded guilty of opening a letter not addressed to him and was re- manded for sentence, Among the indictments filed by the late Grand Jury im the United States Circuit Court was one against W. J. & T. ©. Pollock, formerly importers, doing business in this city, The allegation is that during November, 1874, the firm imported twenty cases of worsted goods, subject to thirty per cent duty, but entered them as sill noils(% @ short pieces or knots of silk separated by combing), duty free. That four cases were ordered to the appraiser’s department, and that the cartmen left all of the cases at Pollock’s store, exchanging them for cases of silk veils, similarly marked and numbered. A bench warrant has been issued, but the Pollocks have not been found. In 1872 W. J. Pollock was indicted jointly with a John Davenport and Thomas J. McGrath for violation of the revenue laws on an invoice of 22,000 jute but escaped punishment The United States District Attorney yesterday dis- continued by noile Pinar a the suits brought in the United States Circuit Court by the Cnited States against the following ergons:—Joseph B. Purdy, for shipping firoworks; F, W. Jones, demanding illegal feos from pris- oners; Victoria C. Woodhull and ‘Tennie C. Chatlin, for sending alleged obscene literature through the mails; Abel 8, Benedict, assaulting an officer; W. H. Burke, sending sawdust circulars through the mails; Christy- pher Flood, violation of internal revenue; John Reis und William Just, illicit distillation; Serapis Serpa, Jobn B. Martinez and Blas de Bouchet, smuggling; Peter Campbell, iMlicit distillation, and ‘Theodore . Bremsen, presenting false claitus, A schedule was yesterday filed by Harris Rothstein in the Court of Common Pleas setting forth his liabilities at $87,069 58 and assets at $12,045. ‘Tho assignee, Abraham Shenfich, tiled his bond for $20,000. ‘The suit against Margaret Watson, administratrix o the late James Watson, to recover $6,000,000, the facts of which have already been published in tho Hgratp, was yesterday sent by Judge Lawrence, holding Su- prome Court, Chambers, before a referee. ‘The applt- cation was concarred in by counsel on both sides. Judge Lawrence wppointed Mr. Murray Hotfman the refereo, and it wus arranged that the taking of testi- mouy begin at twelve M, to-morrow at Mr. Hotfman’s office. In the case of Michael Finnell, charged with the murder of O’Baldwin, the Irish Giant, Judge Barrett, holding the Court of Oyor and Terminer, formally dis missed yesterday the writ of habeas corpus, owing to the unavoidable absence in another court of Mr, Will- fam F, Howe, the prisoner's counsel, It was stipu- lated, however, that counsel would appear and movo for discharge on bail at any time in the absence of the prisoner. The Supreme Court, General Term, was occupied most of yesterday hearing the argument upon the ap- wl taken in the sutt brought by Paran Stevens against rs, Lucy D. Fisk, administratrix of the late Colonel Jame: Fisk, Jr. Colonel Fisk, as alleged, agreod to pay Mr. Stevens some $9,000, expended by the latter on the Ninth Regiment Fb expecting to be maemnitied by the city, As Colonel Fisk died, and the money was not paid, this suit was brought, in the lower Court a verdict was rendered against Mrs, Fisk, trom which she.appealed, After hearing the argument the Court took: the papers and reserved its decision. A rather curious foreclosure suit has just been tried before Judge Van Vorst, holding Special Term of the Supreme Court. The suit is tbat of Fletcher against Clark to forectose a $4,000 mortgage. The defence was that the mortgage was a cover for a usurious loan, After hearing the testimony, which presented sume rather singular features, and not at all complimentary to some of the lawyers ongaged in the case, the Court took the papers. In the suit brought by Henry J, Williams against Nel- son J. Abbott, witch has been on trial in the Supreme Court, Special Term, before Judge Van Vorst, some of the ins and outs of stock transactions wore developed. ‘The plaintiff claims that he arranged with the defend- ant in regard to stock transactions and that the latter agreed to divide with him the profits, He alloges that the defendant bought 1,000 shares of Union Pacitic stock but fuiled to account as to the result, but did give him $480 60 on account of 100 shares of the same stock which he purchased. The defendant says there was no such agreement; that he simply agreed to carry 100 shares us a mutter of friendship and gold them on plawtiff’s advice. The suit is for an accounting. The ‘Court took the papers. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS. Before Judgo Sutherland. ALLEGED MALPRACTICE, Eliza Altenhain, Julius Von Meyer and Theophile Webber were placed on trial yesterday upon an indict- ment for manslaughter, The woman named isa mid- wife and the two other defendants claim to be doctors, On the 10th of August last Ursula Wick, wife of Gustavo Wick, of No. 800 East Sixty-sixth street, the com- plainant in tho case, being taken with the pangs of labor, despatched her husband to bring Mrs, Altenhain toattend her, Aftor examining tho deceased the mid- wifo wrote a receipt, which complainant had prepared by a druggist and administered to his wife. Shortly afterward Mrs, Allenhain came to complainant and tola him that his wife's condition was very dangerous, He then insisted upon having a doctor called in, and she named “Dr.” Webber and “Professor” Von Meyer, who were accordingly vrought to the bedside ofthe’ patient, They, in company with Mrs, Alten- hatn, for two hours worked upon the decoused with in- struments, The two men then left and the midwife told complainant that the case was hig bad. He then brought Dr. Schueider, of No, 224 Kast Forty-sixth street, who examined the deceaged and pronounced her past all hope, He declared that sho bad been literally ‘torn to pieces by the ignorant and unskilful manner in which the metruments had been manipulated. He took his departure and goon after the patient died, The complainant testified to these facts on the stand yester- day. The second witness called was Dr, Schnetder, of No, 224 East Forty-sixth street, who testified to his having been called in to see the deceased, He found her, lie said, in a dying state, His examination had not beon completed when the Court adjourned, STEALING A ONE HUNDRED DOLLAR BANK NOTE, Josephine Thompson was found guilty of grand lar. ceny and was sentenced to one year’s imprisonment in the Penitentiary, The complainant, George B, Putnam, had been living with her for some time at her apart: ment, No, 53 Forsyth street.

Robingon, tho Inspector of Weights and Measures who was indicted on acharge of demanding extortionate fees {rom a shopkeeper whoae measures he had inspected, was discharged, in consequence of the inability of the olficers to find his clerk, Obarles Travers, whose testimony was indispensable to @ con- vietion.

WASHINGTON PLACE POLICE COURT, Before Judge Bixby, THE WAY THEY MADE CITIZENS. Robert Davis, of No, 8 Sixth avenue, was arraigned at the above court yesterday, on a charge of attempt- ing to register illegally. Davis produced a cer- tiflcate issued from the Supreme Court on the 16th of October, 1868, signed by Charles KE. Loew, Clerk, ag to his naturalization and rights as a citizen, This certificate Inspector George Hepburn, of the Twenty-eighth Election district of the Fifth Assembly district, contended was fraudu- lent, as Davis admitted to him that he had received the certificate only three days subsequont to his having declared his intentions, the law of the United States being that the applicant for citizenship must declaro his intentions two years prior to taking out his certifl- cate of citizenship. Davis was held in $1,000 bail to an- swer, Mr, George S. Walsh, of No, 8 Sixth avenue, be- came his bondsman. | BEWARE OF PLUMBERS. On Tuesday morning Jacob Hess, a plumber, called at No, 212 West Fortieth street, and stated that he was sent there to remove the copper boiler by the Board of Health, as the boiler was out of repair, and it was dangerous to leave it in the house. Tho servant who opened the door for Hess refused to let him take the boiler, saying that she did not know who he was, and sho wanted him to get out of the house at once. In the midst of the dispute between Hess and the servant, Mrs, Gertrude Wheaton, the proprietress, came down stairs, and Hess explained the supposed defect in the boiler so plausibly that Mrs. Wheaton allowed him to take it away in an express wagon, Mrs, Wheaton subsequently discovered that she had been swindled, and Hess, who sold the copper boiler, valued at $0, to a junk dealer named Joun Savage, of No, 171 West Thirty-second stroet, for $11 40, was arrested by Officer Murphy, of the Twentieth precinct, yesterday and committea by Judge Bixby in $1,000 bail to answer, CAUGHT IN THE ACT. Mr. William B. Gray, a dry goods dealer at No. 391 Eighth avenue, caught John Balfe, of No. 14 Roosovelt street, on Wednesday afternoon, who had picked up five pieces of alpaca, valued at $75, from the front of his door and ran away. Balfe was held by Judge Bixby in $1,000 bail to answer. FIFTY-SEVENTH STREET COURT. Before Judge Murray. A BIGAMIST IN THE TOILS. William Murphy, a car driver, was brought to court on a warrant for bigamy. The two ladies who had the honor of bearing his name were present to prosecute him and their evidence was so straightforward and con- vincing that even Murphy’s counsel had little or no detence to make. Mrs. Murphy No. 2, cried bitterly on belng compelled to testify against her betrayer. All wife No. 1 wanted was ber husband. Murphy was com- mitted for oxamination. A BUBGLAR CAUGHT. William Degan was charged with breaking into and robbing the residence of Otto Alexander, druggist, No, 158 East Seventy-eighth street, of $60 worth of wearing apparel. Most of the property was found upon him when arrested. He was committed for trial, ROBBED WHILE" INTOXICATED. In September last Henry McCue, of No. 341 East Forty-seventh street, was robbed of $40 while on his way home, late at night, under the influence of liquor, He suspected two men, one of whom had taken him home, as the persons who had robbed him, but he did not cause their arrest until yesterday, hoping that they would refund the money. liam MeGalvin, and John McLean, the prisoners, were held for Peering ry former in $5,000 bail and the latter in $3,000, ny claim to be innocent, i, POLICE COURT NOTES. A question of interest was yesterday raised in the Court of Special Sessions, with @ somewhat novel result. Isidor Miller was accused of stealing a wagon load of ice, belonging to the Knickerbocker Company, The complainant testified that he saw the prisoner driving an ice wagon away and stopped him. Counsel for the prisoner here moved for a dismissal of the complaint and for the discharge of his client on the ground that there was no evidence that the Knickerbocker Ico Company was incorporated according to law, The Court seemed to be taken by surprise by the novelty of the proposition, and at once ordered the case to be ad- Jjourned until to-morrow, when it will be fully inquired | into. Lena Schmidt was accused at Essex Market Polico Court of shoplifting and was committed in $1,000 bail to answer at Goneral Sessions. UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT. Wasutneton, Uct, 14, 1875.

Atrial growing out of the disputed ownership of a tin coffeepot, “the worse for wear,’ was held in the | City Court, Brooklyn, before Juage Reynolds, yester- day.

To this generosity of the farmers the Long Island Railroad Company added ts mite by a tree carriage of the goods along its line, and several truckmen from the neighborhood | of the “Ola Brewery” conveyed them trom the railroad | depot to the door ot the mission free of charge, Tho | Superintendent, Rey.

THE STATEN ISLAND FERRY WAR. A LETTER EXPLANATORY OF THE LAW POINTS INVOLVED. To Tux Eprron ov tax HeraLy:— Hostilities between the ®aten Island ferry com- panies appear to be in aquiescent state at the present writing, and both parties are resting upon their arms. The question, however, came up before the Board of Pilot Commissioners yesterday, when tho officers of the New York and Staten island Ferry Company (Gar- ner’s line) made the following showing :— By an act passed by the Legislature in 1857 estab- lishing bulkhead and pier head lines, it was ordered that no pier should be constracted within 100 feet of another pier. The Legislature of 1818, without restriction, except that “——Corson and sons shall fish on said shore,’” granted to certain parties full title and interest in al riparian properties lying on the east shore of Staten Island, Under this act the New York and Staten Island Ferry Company, by purchase and legul succession of title, became actual owners of a portion of the shore, and built out a pler commensurate with their need, Long provious to this, however, the old (Van- derbilt) company had constructed a landing for their ferryboats, and when the new pier was in progress they complained that the law of 1857 had been broken by the new company and that no pier could be legally erected within 100 feet of their own. ‘There 1s more than one point in the caso, and the first appears to be whether grantees of land under water, according to acts of the Legislature, have any ownership under such grant, or Whether subsequent legislation can sweep away all previous action. In a word, is the Legislature constitutionally capable of passing retroactive laws ? ‘The second point 18 whether the Vanderbilt people have a legal objection or not, They claim to possces « pier. They also claim that no opposing parties shall erect a pier within 100 foct of their landing, Are they right or wrong? A pier, by the act of 1857, shall not exceed seventy feet in width. The landing place of the Staten Island Railway Company is 163 feet 7 inches in width ; it extends moro than ten feet beyond the bulk- head line, By the law it is neither a pier nor a bulkhead, but a nondescript without legal name, a nuisance which should and must be abated. ‘The Garner line contends that the Vanderbilt faction is in possession of and using for its interest a construction (call it bulkhead or pier if you will) that is in contravention of the laws of ‘the Stato, and demand that it shall be moditled to meet those laws; laws that can be shown as operative upon grants under water prior to the passage of the law of 1857. The North Shore Ferry Company is perfectly willing to rest its cause upon its legal rights, but do- clines to submit to any act of terrorism on the part of Pilot Commissioners or any other party acting ina quasi-legal capacity, OctosER 13, 178. STATEN ISLANDER, SEIZURE OF AN OCEAN STEAMSHIP. Yesterday morning the steamship Hammonia, be- Jonging to the Hamburg-American Packet Company’s line, lying at Hoboken, was seized by United States Marshal Louis Newcomb in the matter of a suit brought by Henry A. Fleischman against the above mentioned company, and in which he lays his damages at $10,000, The vessel was subsequently bonded by her agents, Messrs. C. B. Richard & Boas, in the sum of $20,000, being twice the amount of damages claimed; and the Hammonia proceeded to Hamburg last night, carrying a large amount of mails, passengers and cargo. A CARD FROM MR. COTTMAN. To tne Eprror or Tax Herat My attention is called to an article in the Heratp of October 13, which states that Iam counsel for the broken Third Avenue Savings Bank. I deem this a great injustice to me, as I, on tho contrary, represent the interests of certain depositors in that’ bank, aud purpose to collect their deposits even at the cost of the bank oflicers, This is the only relation I pro) ever to have with that institution, Respectfully, C. OTTMAN, THOMAS D. THE SEAMEN’S RETREAT. Itis understood that the financial embarrassments of the Scamen’s Retreat at Stapleton are such that legisla- tive action will be necessary, either for winding up the whole trust or for disposing of a portion of the exten- sive grounds to enable it to obtain temporary relief, It | is said that for the past few months the institution has | been running behind financially to the extent of about $1,000 in each month, and most of the products of the | farm have been sold to reduce the expenses. This being the case, the Board of Supervisors are urged to secure some of the buildings of the Retreat as a loca- tion for the county offices, the Court House and jail to remain where they now are, at Richmond. The county records would thus be more accessible to lawyers and | business men, and business generally with the offices | would be much expedited. MUSICAL.
