. NEW YORK HERALD, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1875—TRIPLE ‘ SHEET. THE COURTS. wA Son on Trial for Killing His Mother. REVOLTING STORY OF MORAL DEGRADATION. Important Decision Under the Bankrupt Laws. SHE ATTACK ON JUDGES DAVIS AND DANIELS, Referee’s Report in the Suit Against the Watson Estate. A case of unusual interest was brought to trial yesterday, in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, before Judge Barrett. Thomas Callahan, a man twenty-eight wyears of age, of large pbysique, red hair, clean shaven face, and vyes almost incessantly looking at the floor, ‘was placed on trial for that rare and most inhuman of erimes—matricide, An unusual féature of the case was the fact that his own sister was the principal witness against him. District Attorney Pbelps appeared for the prosecution. The prisoner had engaged Mr. William WW. Howe as counsel, but the latter, not being able to attend, had sent Mr. Laird as his representative. The prisoner, however, expressed somo dissatisfaction @t = this, = and thereupon Judge Barrett went for Mr, William: F Kintzing to assist in the case, assuring him that he would be ‘ably defended. This gave satisfaction, and the trial proceeded. The story, as developed on the opening of ‘the case, was that Mrs. Callahan was a widow and a ‘hard-working woman; that the prisoner was dissolute ‘and drank nearly all the time and continually asking her for money to gratify his insatiate passion for drink. On the 28th of August last, as usual he asked ‘her for money, which sho refused to give him. Ho ‘then, as the story for the prosecution further alleges, ‘knocked her down, kicked her after she had fallen, Breaking several ribs, and finally, when she was help- fess, dragged her into a corner of the room, threw a few rags over her and took away the bedding from her ‘bed and pawned it to buy liquor with. The mdictment egainst him is for murder in. the first degree. Annie Walker, a colored woman, was the frst witness called. She testified that she was acquainted with the deceased, and had gone to her house two days before the murder; that she had been atthe house at ten e’clock on the day of the ‘murder, and went up stairs ‘to seo Mrs, Callahan; that she knocked at her door, but received no answer; that she went into the room and aw nothing bat a bundle of dirty clothes; that upon closer scrutiny she discovered a smal! portion of a bare t; that she took the clothes off and discovered the ody of the deceased; that she was lying on her back; ‘that she saw no blood, nothing but finger marks on her Katie Callahan, the sister of the prisoner, testified that she lived with her brother and mother; that she slept with her mother, while her brother occupied the gofa down stairs; that her brother was formerly a poldier in the regular army; that he did nothing in par- ticular for a living; that three weeks before her mother died the prisoner had a fight with her; that he was drunk and asked her for liquor; she would not let him ave it, so he kicked her once on the knee and struck er in the face; she had him arrested, but did not ap- gd against hi and he was discharged; he then went Bed Bank, did not come back until three or four days before her mother’s death; he was drunk all the time; her mother was also drunk, and when they were that way they scolded her; she got from ber work about six o’clock in the evenin; ‘wont ap stairs; saw her mother lying on the floor an: it brother was also there; her mother said she did not weil, that she was very weak; witness was unable to ther on the bed; she stood ‘in the room for some ime, but they both had been drinking and com- “menced to scold her, so she went out, because she was afraid; she went next door; when she returned her er was still on the floor in the sume place and her ‘other was in bed; prisoner was asleep most of the ‘while and did not awaken for some time; the prisoner ot up and went out; did not return until about half- — twelve o'clock; she went away about five o’clock + morning; mother was still lying on the floor; about half-past ten some one told ber that her mother was dead; 4s soon as she hheard it se went home and saw her mother; her face ‘was black and blue; she was covered with clothes; on ‘tthe night provious her clothes were scattered about the floor ; the windows were open; her hands were closed, but she saw nothing in them, Upon being cross-examined by Mr. Kintzing the wit- oral testified that she did not know of any other fight tween the prisoner and her mother; her mother had been drunk from the time her brother kicked her until ® short time of her death; she had several fights with wome of the other people In the house, and received in- & ;, When intoxicated she often fell; one time she fallen from the walk to the basement and cut her head; when she wanted liquor she would pawn things and take them from the trunks; nothing eccurred Uetween the prisoner and her moth®r. On the redirect examination witness said that her ‘Brother sometimes beat her. Dr. Cushman, Deputy Coroner, testified that he made & post-mortem examination of the body; he found several bruises on the body, but one ox the left arm ‘was tore recent; he found two ribs fractured on ‘the left side and ‘three on the right; on removing the scalp there was found ‘extravasation of blood beneath; the injuries she received, with the accompanying ex: fravasation of blood, caused her death, Captain McDonald testified that the prisoner after ‘Deing taken to the station house confessed to him that he struck bis mother two or three times, but that he did so because she threw a pitcher at him and called shim a thiet and a loafer. ‘After a brief opening by Mr. Laird several witnesses ‘were called for the defence. Their testimony went to how that the deceased had been addicted to drinking for severai years; that on the day before her death she Zell, while intoxicated, into a ay | inflicting severe injuries, one effect of which. was partly to destroy her Counsel will commence suroming up this morning on | ‘the reassembling of the Court, and, in all probability, ‘@he trial will be concluded to-day. BANKRUPTCY DECISION. Judge Blatchford, in the United Statos District Court, | yesterday rendered a decision in the case of Stephen B. ‘French, assignee, &c., of the estate of William Adams, | deceased, of Sag Harbor, L. 1, against the First Na- tional Bank of New York. It i.a3 follows:— The evidence shows that at the close of business on the 5th of January, 1871, the bankrupt had a debit Dalance against him in the books of the defendants of $1,868 35. On the 6th of January the defendants paid drafts drawn on them by the bankrupt to the amount of $119 65. This made a dobit balance against whim on such books of $1,988 at the close of business on the 6th ‘of January. defendants then wrote to him the letter of the 6th of January, which was sent to him by the special messen- rr saying, “Your account with us is overdrawn about 00, and’ we have refused payment of about $3,000 ore of your drafta, It requires full $5,000 to make You good. If you are short of money, so that you cannot send that amount by the bearer, you must send by him some bonds, notes, &c., that wecan make you loan on and save you from further discredit.” The special messenger, with this loticr, left New | ‘York on the 6th and arrived at Sag Harbor’ the same evening, Meantime, on the 7th, aftor the messenger ‘Thad left, o remittance of $1,115 4, which had been sent by the bankrupt to the defendants on tho bth, ar- rived and was credited by the defendants to the bank- @upt in account on the 7th. They also credited him on ‘the same day with $589 52, as the proceeds of igols. On the same day they paid draits drawn on them by im to the amount of $161 82 This le! inst him on their Books, at the close of business on e 7th, of $433 86. But the testimony of the cashier ‘of the detendants shows that they had in their custody yn the 7th the item of $140, coupons, afterward credited ‘account on the 11th, and the item of $633 41, Hunt, afterward credited im account on the I4th. The bank: jrupt was, therefore, not really indebted to them at ail j@t the close of business on the 7th, As the result of Wtheir sending the special messenger, ho obtained at Qarbor, on the Tth, the package containing the items which ' he delivered to the defendants on the ‘1th, and which they credited in account on that day ‘at $1,527 39. Whatever might have been the proper ‘Conclusion as to this $1,527 39, If the bankrupt had not Femitted the $1,116 94 which he did remit on the bth | in the regular course of business, and which on the evi- dence must be regarded as having come to the hands of | the defendants before the $1,627 30 was placed in the | prands of the yr, it is apparent that the $1,527 39 ‘eame to the hands of the messenger at a time when the ‘Dankrupt was not indebted to the defendants, but when oe were liable to respond to him for the sum of 3 55, They subsequently responded to him for the 80 and the $239 56 and a further item of for his account on the 18th, being a total of ©o! bes i 4. see, therefore, nothing in the transaction as to the $1,527 39 which the plaintiff can impeach as in viola- tion of the provisions of the Bankruptcy act, All the remittances jo by the bankrupt to the defendants * to have been made in the ordinary course of business dealings between the parties, and there is no evidence of any intent on the part of the bankrupt, in Wespect to them, to give any preference to the defena- ants, even though at times his account may have been overdrawn, because he was constantly drawing on them and they were constantly paying drafts of bis yd | vessel, sued defendant, the master, for an assault and ‘Ceiving remittances from him, and t! ten Of his afwor the 7th of January—ni five on the en, two on the 14th, two'on the 17th and one on the otreu sae thas cine ce under se m1 rus ner tor the plaintiff Peabody & Barker IRA SHAFER EXPLAINS. ‘The attack made a few days since by Mr. Ira Shafer on Judges Davis and Daniels, and which at the time through the boldness of the assault excited general wonder among both members of the Bench and the Bar, has, from tho hint thrown out by Judge Law- rence, before whom in Supreme Court, Chambers, the opprobrious epithets wore uttered, that he should re- port the case before a General Term of the Court, in- duced the plain spoken lawyer to riso to make ex- planations. He took occasion, to borrow a legal phrase, to put himself “right on record.” On the reassembling yesterday of Supreme Court, Chambers, as he arose to address the Court there was the most profound silence, Mr. Shafer spoke with great feeling, his remarks being substantially as follows:— May it please Your Honor, I have obtained a copy of as! inion on Heatherton vs Hastings, and while ‘our Honor sustains my objections to the motion, you remark that you deem it your duty to report my lan- guage to a General Term of the Supreme Court. ‘I pre. sume Your Honor refers to my remarks respecting Justices Davis and Daniels. Judge Lawrence nodded his head by way of assent. Mr. Shafer continued—It ix dificult to describe the feclings which overcaine me on that occasion, My friend had been impeached for doing what Your Honor was asked to do by counsel. I had been sued, and, to say the least, been severely criticised by the justices named for doing less. Smarting, as I did, under these reflections, in an unguarded mo- ment, notwithstanding ‘my loug experience at the Bar and my uniform courtesy to the Bench, I was betrayed into putting my ‘thoughts into language unbecoming the occasion and exceeding the license of legal debate, however great the seeming provocatioa, ‘The occurrence has given me great, pain, and itis due to myself, to the legal profession, to the ordorly administration of justice, to Your Honor and to all concerned, to say, as Ido, that I sincerel regret the occurrence, More would not say now, less could not have said and be manly. I had intonded to say as much before I saw Your Honor’s opinion, and attended hero for that purpose, but found Your Honor 80 engaged that I disliked to disturb you. I will add that, although what I said was without premeditation, I can recall from memory the language I employed, an Will furnish it to Your Honor if you desire it, I await Your Honor’s pleasure in the premises. I beg not to be misunderstood. I have said this much solely trom # senso of ‘duty, not from fear. The meaning of that word, personally, do not understand. Judge Lawrence—Your remarks on the occasion re- ferred to by you were heard by me and understood, They gave me a great deal of pain, and Twill consider what [ will do after your observations, I thought at the time that you were smarting under some injuries which you supposed you had recetved, although I had not seen the opinion to whicn you refer, I am very lad, however, that you haye expressed yourself as you ve, and I will take your remarks into consideration. Mr. Shafer—Lest there be some misunderstanding by Your Honor as to what Ihave said I beg leave to fur- nish you my notes, Mr. Shafer then rence, presumably THE SUIT AGAINST THE WATSON ESTATE. Ex-Judge Murray Hoffman, referee in the suit com- menced by the city against the estate of James Watson, yesterday filed his opinion in the County Clerk’s office. ‘The leading points of this judgmont are as follows:—In | the year 1869 James Watson, since deceased, combined | and conspired with Richard B. Connolly, William M. | Tweed, James H. Ingersoll, Andrew Garvey and others to procure and cause to be set up against the county of New York certain false, unfounded, fraudulent and fictitious claims, and caused them to be passed in formal compliance with the then existing laws. In 1869 and 1970 warrants, designated in a schedulo annexed, thirty-seven in number, amount- ing in the aggregate to $1,177,749 73—being the warrants which, as already reported, were proved before the referce—were issued by ‘the county in such false claims. Of that sum $529,258 22 was retained by the person in whose name such bills were rendered, and the balance, $643,491 51, was, pursuant to such combination and conspiracy, paid to and divided among the said Richard B. Connolly, James Watson, de- ceased, and others, As to the latter amount, the bills were Wholly false and fraudulent, and that sald James Watson was a party to the fraud, and received the pro- ceeds thereof, or some part thereof. As to all not mentioned in the schedule annexed, and proved before the referce, the plaintiff, on the consent of the defend- ant, discontinued the action and withdrew them from consideration, AS a conclusion of law the referee finds that the plaintiff is entitled to recover of the administratrix to be leviéd out of the estate, $648,491 51, with costs, and that after deducting therefrom tho ex- penses of the State as plaintiffs, the balance 18 to be paid to the Chamberlain of this city, to be applied to the use of the city. In connection with the above {t may be stated that a rumor prevailed yesterday around the new Court House { and the City Hall to-day that the representatives of the estate of the late County Auditor James Watson con- template surrendering to the city the $500,000 worth of bonds of that estate now deposited in one of the trust companies, and which have been attached. THE OCEAN BANK ROBBERY. ‘The suit of Samuel M. Archer against the Ocean Na- tional Bank, which failed in 1871, to recover the sum of $10,000, vatue of government bonds deposited as se- curity with the bank for over drafts, came up for trial yesterday before a jury in the United States Vircuit Court, Judge Wallace presiding. George Norris, coun- sel for the plaintiff, stated that the bonds were stolen from the bank at the time of the robbery m 1869, a robbery that he alleged was effected through the con- nivance of the then Cashier and President, Columbus 3, Stevenson. He proposed to prove that the robbery was planned by Stevenson, and remarked that Rut- ger Teal, recently pardoned by Governor Tilden on an offence for obtaining goods under false pre- tences, and wno would be called as a witness, knew ali the facts in relation to it. Hoe alleged that the bank | aid for the burglar’s kit used ut the time, and that Btevenson ‘was with them when they entered the bank, andaided in the removal of the bonds. He charg the bank directors with gross negligence in the manage- ment of its affairs, especially atter knowing the com- plicity of Stevenson in its robbery. The directors, he claimed, should be held responsible for the amounts di the depositors, Formal evidence of the deposit of the bonds was offered, and two witnesses were called to identify this documentary evidence. The case will robably occupy a number of days in its trial. George Worris appeared for plaintiff and F. N, Bangs for defendants. The names of the directors of the defunct bank could not be ascertained, MARINE COURT—PART 3. Before Judge Spaulding. ASSAULT BY A CAPTAIN ON HIS SECOND MATE.

In February, 1874, part of the premises tumbled doyn; plainuills say on account of improper construction of the building, defendants say by over- loading the floors.

DISTRICT ATTORNEY BLISS, WALTER GIBSON, AFTER ONE DEFEAT, REVIEWS THE CHARGES OF A YEAR AGO ON THE AD- VICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL. ‘The Hxraxn of yesterday contained a statement to the effect that no one possessed a knowledge of any charges having been preferred against District Attorney Bliss, This statement proves to be incorrect, as Mr. Walter Gibson, who more than a year ago preferred a number of charges against District Attorney Blis which were published in the Hxzanp of July 16, 187 has, at the suggestion of Attorney General Pierrepont, renewed the charges and appealed to President Grant against the decision of Attorney General Williams, who was of opinion that ‘fhe charges relate chiefly to mat- ters that are within the discretion of every United States Attorney.” ‘This decision was given when the President reterred Mr. Gibson’s former appeal to Attor- ney Genera Williams. The present appeal takes the form of a request to the President to personally review the charges against the District Attorney. The follow- ing extract from Mr, Gibson’s appeal contains some in- formation on this important subject not hitherto given to the public:— GrBsoN’s APPEAL, Permit me to inform you how the Grand Jury were prejudiced and misled by false statements. While tes- tifying, on their invitation, a marshal (oreibly removed me from their presence, ‘Assistant District. Attorney Purdy came in and said, “A political fight is going on in Harlem and 1 wish to wash my hands of it.’? Before the next he had talked with Mr, Bliss, advised me to withdraw y told a juror be did not wantany dificulty with Mr.’ BI and afterwards told the jury that he thought I was “warped.” rs. Purdy and Bliss told them I had no case, and that [ had had two hearings before Post Oilice agents. This is utterly untrue in evory particular, the only basis for the statement being that Mr. Pierce had had a hearing of which I knew nothing tilgatter it was over, and Special Agent Shar- retts was Ordered to make an examination. I for- | warded charges to the Postmaster General that he did nothing of the kind, and petitioned for his removal. ‘An order to do a thing and doing tt are two very differ- ent things, Mr. Tunison was admitted, con- trary to law, and read to the Grand Jury a letter of mine'to him which he unwarrantably con- strued as an attempt to blackmail him. It was written to test bik tnnocence a week after the Post Office agent His construction, there- fore, was ialso on the fuck but I had no opportu- nity to correct it. Mr, Bliss, treating it as relevant, if true, reported it to the Attorney General. Cousider- ing it an open letter I myself, out of pride, published it, | immediately, to show the pains I had taken to ascertain the truth, Mr. Tunison testified Mr, Pierce did not tell arged from his clerk- ship six months afterward, whereas he told it to two persons that very night. Shaw was introduced, con- to law, to prove an alibi for the papers, ‘I had mil evidence to rebut him, but no opportunity to offer it, A decision in the case was postponed till fall, when a minority attempting to call it up for disposal by vote were silenced by Jeers, coughs, and scraping of fet, In that deluge of manuscript that constitutes Mr. Bliss’s suppressed reply be secretly poured into the ear of the late Attorney General the accusation that I was “ false and reckless in my statements,” and yet he himself in opposition to the 18 just stated, assert that “a bill was unanimously refused.” Can justice be subserved by turning a Grand Jury into a petit jury and, Star Chamber-like, by denying a com- plainant the privilege of cross-questioning witnesses for the defence when the attorney of the people abdi- cates his function? For information ag to what oc- curred in the Grand Jury room I was mainly ‘indebted to Mr. Griffia, the foreman, Mr. J, Hobart Haws, another juror, a nephew of Robert T, Haws, signed the aflidavit'as witness. Mr. Bliss, to destroy his credi- bility in his suppressed reply, threw mud upon him, 1am informed by Attorney General Pierrepont that I have the right to appeal to yourself from the late At- torney Gonoral’s decision, I have, therefore, the honor to request that questions of law in both sets of charges be submitted to the Attorney General and ques- tions of fact to some United States Commissioner in this city, who shall be empowered to summon tho Grand Jurymen and all other witnesses, New York, Uct. 15, 1875, WALTER GIBSON, LABOR AND EDUCATION ACTION OF THE NEW YORK BOARD OF TRADE.
