INTERESTING LOST WILL CASE fhe Money Paid by General James Watson Webb to Influential Brazilians. ——— RETRIAL OF SCANNELL TO BEGIN TO-DAY. In the suit bronght in the name of the people against ex-Court House Commissioner Thomas Coman, to ro- tover about $800,000 alleged to have been fraudulently | appropriated by him ana his co-Commissioners, inger- } soll, Walsh and Norton, out of funda recoived by them for the completion of the new Court House, Messrs. Lockwood and Post, as attorneys for Coman, served his answer on Mr. Wheeler H. Peckham, counse! for the people, late yesterday evening. In his answer Coman admits that about December 1, 1870, under section 10 of chapter 382 of the Laws of 1870 the Mayor of this city appointed James H. Ingersoll, Jobn J. Walsh, Michael Norton and himeelf Commis. sioners for completing the new County Court House, as alleged in the third paragraph of the first cause of action in the complaint, and ho also admits a similar allegation in the same paragraph. For a separate answer he alleges, upon information and belief, that John J, Walsh, James H. Ingersoll and Michael Norton, the other Court House Commissioners, with whom the complaint aileges he conspired with mtent to defraud and cheat the plaintif_s, and who have been heretofore charged with participation in the moneys alleged to havo been obtained thereby, have been prosecuted or otherwise pursued by the plaintiffs, and that the said plaintiffs bave heretofore obtained from them, the sart Walsh, Ingersoll and Norton, or some of them, large amounts of money and other property applicable to the reimburseinent of the party entitled to the same, and that the plaintitls ave discharged and released the said Walsh, Lngersoll and Norton trom all claims on account of the matters aforesaid, For aturther separate answer he alleges, upon information and behet, that Androw J. Gurvey, with whom the plaintiff alleges in the first cause of ac- tion in the complaint he (Coman) conspired with intent to defraud plaintiffs by obtaining payment of certain bills alleged to be false and fraudulent, and John H. Keyser, who is in like manner charged in the fourteenth cause Of action in the complaint, and John McBride Davidson, who ts in like manner charged in the Of teenth cause of action in the complaint, have been pros- ecuted or otherwise pursued by the plaintiffs, and that the plaintiffs have obtained from said Garvey Keyser and Davidson, or some of them, large amounts of money and property applicable tothe reimburse- ment of the party entitled thereto, and that they, the said Garvey, Key#tr and Davidson, bave been’ dis- charged and released trom al! claims on accountof such ‘8, He further alleges that he is informed and be- lieves that certain parties have been heretofore charged by the plaintiffs with participation im the frauus alleged in the complaint, and that plaintitls have obtained from said parties large amounts of money and other property tor the reimbursement of the party et titled to the same, and have released and discharg the said parties trom all claims on account of said mat- ters; but he cannot give the names of such parties or the amounts received from therm. He sill turther alleges that Ingersoll. and Garvey were witnesses for the plaintill in a certain action Drought in the Supreme Court by plainpiff against Mar- garet Watson, administratrix of James Watson, de- ceased, und tliat the said Ingersoll and Garvey came forward and testified upon the trial of said cause for the plaintitts, by virtue of agreements severally made detween them and the plaintiffs, that for such testi- mony fn that cause and in this and similar cauges they should be released from all claims against them arising out of the pretended (rauds reterred to in the complaint in this suit; that said Garvey and Ingersoll each bad and still have property of great value, out of which all claims arising vat of said transactions, or a great part thereof, could, if valid, have been satisfied. ‘he complaint concludes with the same allegation as that contained in all the “ring” answers previously served, to the effect that the city of New York, and not the people of the State, are the real parties in'interest, and alone entitled to bring this suit. Allallegations in the complaint not specially ad Mitted by the loregoing starements of the defendant aro denied by him, and the answer 1s duly veritied by Coman under oath, THE LOST WILL. Mr. David L. Jackson died in January, 1872, at his residence in 100th street, near the St. Nicholas Boulevard His direct family consisted of tour sons, pamed David 1. Jacksony Jr., who was the eldest; William 0., Henry and Frederick Jackson, It was sup. posed, until recently, that the deceased died intestate, but a few days ago testimony was adduced leading to the supposition that he left a will and that it had been destroyed. As nearascan be ascertained at present the story is ag follows:—Mr. 8, F. Cowdrey was the family lawyer, and the Rev, Dr, T. M. C. Peters was a trusted friend of the deceased, ‘Directly after the funeray of Mr. Jackson the four sons returned to the house at 100th street, and giving the keys of Mr. Jackson's iron safe to Dr. Peters, requested him to search for a will Dr, Peters says that he did find a will, or what he supposed to be the will of Mr, Jackson, ana read it to the four sons, then gave it to David L. Jackson, Jr., the cidest son, What the pro- visions of that will were the reverend doctor does not | now remeinber, Mr. 8 F. Cowdrey, the lawyer, was asked if he had drawn a willfor Mr. Jackson; bat he declined to answer, saying that he could not say what he had done for any of bis clients, Further mquiry rr vealed that Mr. F. H. Twine, formerly a carpenter and builder in the apper part of the city, but now engaged in tne freight department of the West Wisconsin Railroad Company, at St. Paul, Minn., Was present whon the will was signed, and he says that it prec for an ab- solute gilt of $3,000 to Mrs. Julia Houghton, and fur- ther provided that a little girl named Jule Coffin should | be pan yearly the interest on the sum of $3,000 until she arrived at her majority, at which time the principal should be paid over to her. Mr. Twine says also that the will required the executors to reserve | from sale the lots owned by the testator, lying north | of 100th street, to meet that bequest to Julia Coflin, and that the sum of $5,000 was to be putin the bands of a Mr. F. 8. Cowdrey or 8. F, Cowdrey, he cannot remem- | ber Which, in trust, to pay the ‘said interest, and, | ultimately, the principal sum of $3,000 to Miss Coflin, | provided the lots to be reserved were insufficient to meet the requirements of the bequest. The case is ono of peculiar interest, especially as Mr. David L. Jack- son, Jr., has died since the decease of his father, ond there appears to be no trace of the will. A further in- | vestigation of the matter will be had to-day before Sur- rogato Hutchings. GENERAL JAMES WATSON WEBB. * In 1867, while James Watson Webb was United States Minister in Brazil, itis charged by the United States government that he collected £14,000 from the Brazihan government as indemnity for the illegal condemnation of an American ship, and did not return the whole amount collected, but paid £5,000 only into the United States Treasury, After General Webb came home the mited States began suitin the United States District purt to recover from him the remain . General Webb stated in his defence tho £9,000 bad been paid to “influential Brazilians.” Counsel for the government then tiled interrogatories for the defendant tu answer, among others there being the interrogatory, “What are the names of tho inilu. ential Brazilians to whom you say you paid that £9,000" No answer having been made to this ques- tion, United States District Attorney Bliss, for th wernment, has moved before Judge Blatchford, in tho United States District Court, for an order requiring General Webb to give an answer to that iterrogatory or show cause why he should not be committed for contempt of court, The order has been granted, but no time fixed for patting tn the answer mentioned. Gen- eral Webb is said to be iil and contined to his house, THE TRIAL OF SCANNELL. The retrial of John Scannell for the alleged murder, over two years ago, of Thomas J. Donohue, in Jobn- #on's pool rooms, was set down peremptorily tor yes- terday in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, As might have been expected, the court room was densely crowded. The prisoner, with nimble step and a smile | on his face, promptly made his appearance, and though, &s a matter of course, the eynosure uf every eye, vatd no heed to the curiously environing throng. His wife, who was an aniuling attendant through the previous trial, came into court with hin and took & seat by his side, Three of his counsel, Messrs, William A. Beach, Charies 8. Spen On the case being called SMe, Bevel im frose and applied for an adjournment on the ground that be would be unable to proceed, owing to the un avoidable ubsence of Mr. William F, Howe, one of the tounsel in the case, He said that to Mr. Howe had been expecially assigned the duty of obtaining a jury, And he did Hut feel xuiliciently competent ty perform is duty, having given it uo attention, He thought that the best interests of the prisoner would require an | sdjournment wntil this morning, at whieh time they | would bo ready to go on. District Attorney Phelps made no very strenuons ob- | Jection, and Judge Barrett consented to adjourn the eourt until tea o'clock this morning. Previous to ad- | John ch Journment be stated that during the trial the court ‘would open at ten o’clock and continue in session until five o'clock P.M. As since the last trial some of the witnesses have died and others left the city it thought that the present trial will consume much less time than the previous one. The defence, it is under. stood, will be the same as at the former trial—a plea of insanity. DECISIONS, SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS. By Judge Donohue.

SUMMARY OF LAW CASES, A temporary injunction was granted yesterday by Judge Dondhue tn Supreme Court, Chambers, restrain- ing Frederick Lephorns from giving further theatrical performances until payment of his livense fees. Mr. Aaron Jacobs seems to have a great deal of trouble in the proceedings against him for alleged con- tempt of Court. Alter various orders by Judge Freed- man, of the Superior Court, and Judge Westbrook, of the Supreme Court, an order was finally issued yester- day, by Judge Donohue, vacating a previous stay granted tn the case, and remanding him to the custody of the Sherifl. A few days since Mary Simmons was convicted before Police Justice Bix: y of intoxication and sentenced to six months in the workhouse on Blackwell's Island, It ts claimed that the penalty prescribed for this offence ts cither a fine of $10 or ten days’ imprisonment in tho City Prison, Application was made yesterday to Judge Donohue by Mr. William F, Howe fora writ of habeas corpus preliminary to a full investigation of the pro- ceedings. The application was granted. In the case of the suit brought by the United States for the condemnation of fifty-four cases of French canned peas, alleged to have been entered by H. K. Thurber & Co, at an undervaluation, Judge Blatchford, | sitting in the United States District Court, yesterday decided that it was a proper caso for a petition to the Secretary of the Treasury for a remission of prnaities, and he thereupon threw the case out of court by with- drawing a juror, Recently John Sommers applied to Judge Donohue to have his two infant children, Fredericka and Will- jam, who were in the custody of their mother, sur- | rendered to him. The case was sent before Mr. Will- jam Sinclair as referee to take testimony as to tho facts. The testimony showed that he was a man of in- temperate habits and violent temper, and that she kept _a disreputable den in Cherry street, Upon tho proofs submitted Mr. Sinclair decided that, in his judgment, neither father nor mother was a proper per- son to have the care and custody of the children. In compliance with this report Judge Donohue, after ma- ture deliberation, decided to send them to the Shelter- ing Arms and gave an order yesterday to this effect. ‘As the Court of Special Sessions was trying Ellen Carter on a charge of keeping a disorderly house a writ | of habeas corpus was served on the Judges requiring her production before the Supreme Court. The Judges, however, paid no attention to the writ, but procecde with $10 costs, with the trial, found the woman guilty of the charge and sentenced her. An appeal has been taken from the judgment of | Special Sessions, and pending this appeal application | was made yesterday to Judge Barrett, in the Court of Oyer and Termifer, to admit her to bail It was con- tended by Mr, William F, Howe, ber counsel, that the writ served should have acted asa stay on the Jndges at Special Sessions. Judge Barrett said that the case involved a nice question of law, and he took the papers for examination. An application was yesterday made before Judge | Donohue for an order compelling the Comptroller to | apply Deputy Comptroller Earle’s salary toward the | ayment of a judgment of $1,500 recovered against im, An examination in supplementary proceedings | was had, and hecording to the testimony of Mr. Earle it | appeared that his salary was barely sufhcient to eup- port himselfand family, He stated that he had tour fons, two of whom are in business, that one of his sons, his wife and himself boarded in West Washington | square; that he owns no real estate, no bonds or mort- gages und no furniture, excepting a desk, but does own | a wal He added that about a year ago he made an assigninent of his property npon this state of facts, Judge Donohue denied the application, A turther hearing was had yesterday before Surro- | ate Hutchings in the ease of the cuntested will of John | Brown, formerly contractor for cleaning the streets of this city, Counsel for the proponents exaiined Hamilton Ewen, J. Hiscox, Joseph Warren, Patrick 8. | Kelsey and Mrs, Lontsa Sievert as to the mental capa- | city of the testator to transact business Just prior to his decease, the testimony going to show that he was of sound mind, Mrs. Althea Gedney, of Newark, i testified that she had known the testator and bis first wife, Mary Ann, for thirty years, and that when they separated Brown said thathe was glad to get md of Mary Ann, On crossexamination she stated that at one time she took a messago to Mary Ann, froma lawyer, offering to obtain $50,000 from Brown for her. She adited that she saw Brown two months before his" | death and believed that he was then in asound mental condition The npplication fora stay of proceedings, made to | Jndge Barrett by Mr. Wiliam F. Howe on bebalf of k, convicted of the murder of Jolin Trevor tn Rochester, in July last, and sentenced to be hanged, was yesterday dented. The application was made on the ground that improper testimony had been admitted on the trial of th w before Judge Smith, who tried { the case at the Court of Oyer and Terminer of Monroe County, Judge Barrett decided that the testimony w Properly admitted, and retused to grant the application. Ag the enso etands, aniess sume judge grauts a inéanwhile, the prisoner will doubtless on Fri be hanged, the two weeks’ respite granted by Tilden expiring on that day, The trial of the suit of Coristian H.

Hartel, George MeKeuzio, A. E. | Masters, W. P. Ridgley. B, H Van Auken, N, ‘Berry | and H. M. Benedict, The trial did not develop the pro- { cess by which the transformation of animal fat into table butter was to be e! 4, but from the statement | of the company’s assets it appeared not to have been very protitable, The ols suit of John P. O'Sullivan, brought against Marshall O. Roberts, was again betore the courts yes- terday, the case being retried before Judge Speit, of the Superior Court, Plaintiff sued for 50,000 for ‘his services th getting m grant for a Mextean ratiroad in | 1865 from Emperor Maximilian for the New York and Tebuantepec Railroad and Steamship Company to build M railroad ucross the isthmus of Tehuantepec. Prest- dent Comontort had already given a grant to the Louisi- ana Railroad and Steamship ( pany, and Roberts, as lieged, bad told the company that he would pay them 4 certain amount if he could get a valid transfer of their mghts. Plaintiff obtained @ grant from Maximilian, who was succeeded by President Juarez, and the latter declared the contract void, on the ground that the Louisiana company’s rights had | without their attempting to do anything, a) granted all their rights to a new company, calle Tehuantepee Transit Company. When O*suiliv turned to the United States Mr, Roberts refused pay- ment, on the ground that he bad not carried out the terms of his contract, Plaintif got a verdict tor £15,000 on a former trial, Mr. Roberts appenied, and the case Was sent back for anew trial It is probable the trial will last two or three days Meantime the testimony is the same as submitted mt the previous triai, the facts of which were fully published tp the HERALD at the time COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS.

Fiske was called aud put over indetimtely, at the request of Colonel Charles Spencer, counsel for the agcused, who explained that he was employed in the Scannell trial, which was tnen in progress in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, and there- fore zould not be present to defend Mr. Burnham, The next case called was that of Mortimer Sullivan, inaieted for assanit and battery upon William H. Ken- nedy, inthe drinking saloon of Louis Schneider, cor- ner of City Hall place and Pearl street, on the night of October 25, The assault grew out of an argument about political matters, and {twas said by many that the Re- corder’s name was mixed up in the dispute, Accord- ingly that gentleman retired from the bench when the case was called, leaving Judge Sutherland to try the cause. The complamant is an undertaker, doing busi- ness at No, 470 I’earl street, He testified that while he, with two friends, was drinking in the saloon on tho night tn question, Sullivan entered and stood near himat the bar, and that while complainant was talking to one of his friends the accused called him a liar; that he re- turned the he and was thereupon stryck by the accused in the face with sug force asto black@n his eye, and that when he atempted to escape the accused followed him and kicked him in the side; that they were then both ejected by the proprietor of the saloon.

CAPTAIN MILWAIN'S TRIAL Captain John Meflwain, of the Seventh precinct, was yesterday arraigned before the Board of Police Com- missioners on charges based upon testimony recently | given before the Assembly Investigating Committee by Andrew Pennoyer. The specifications of the charge set forth that whilo | the detendant was Captain of the Twentieth precinct, in January, 1874, he failed to break up a panel houso | at No, 202 West Thirty-seventh street, in which Pen. | | hoyer had been robbed of the eum of $1,200; also that the Captain had made no proper effort to arrest the thief who cominitted the robbery. ‘The first witness called was Pennoyer, who testified that on the night of January 26, 1874, while in the premises stated in the ‘complaint, in com. he was robbed by means of the panel game of $1,200; on discover. ing his loss bo went to. the’ Twentieth station house aud reported the same to the sergeant in command, giving a description of the woman, LATER IN @1K EVENING Captain Mellwain accompanied the witness to the | house where he had been robbed, but found there only the Captain | a servant, the principals having fled; mae but one arrest and she was not the person; the house was not broken up, and the witness never re- | covered luis money. Justice Kilbreth took the stand and testified that on the 20th day of January, 1874, Captain Mellwain brought before him a woman pamed Lottie Williams, who | answered the description given by Pennoyer of the the | she was discharged from cus | woman in whose company he had been on night of the robbery; tody, Pennoyer refusing to make @ complaint against her, witness recetved the impression at tho time that Pennoyer did not want to prosecute her for reasons | known to limself, either having settled the matter | with the prisoner oF baving arrangements in progress for such settlement, After some further testimony ot no importance the case was adjourned until to-morrow. | CHANGE NOTES.
