| RRs _ Brothers, publishers of THE COURTS The Seventh Regiment's Fight for a New Armory. FORMALITIES IN BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS. Important Decision by Judge Blatchford. The efforts of the Seventh regiment to obtain an armory and drillroom soem to meet with very grave opposition, An act having been passed by the Legis- Jature paving the way for (he erection of such a struc- ture, the desired plot of land having beon secured and the necessary amount needed for the purpose having been duly appropriated by the Board of Aldermen, the way seemed clear for the speedy accomplishment of this Jong-talked-of project. Everything was going on very smoothly until the Board of Estimate and Aportion- ment refused—and without which all that was done be- fore was without avail—to insert the amount appro. priated in the tax levy for next year. Of course there was only one way to getover this obstacle, and that ‘was a mandamus to compel the Board to incorporate the same in next year’s budget of city expenses. An order was granted to show cause why such a manda- mus should not issue, and after two or three adjourn- ments finally camo to an agreement yesterday before Judge Donohue in Supreme Court, Chambers. Mr, Peter B, Olney, on behalf of the regiment, in- sisted that the Board of Apportionment had -no alter- native but to make the appropriation. It was only dis- cretionary with them whether or not tho $350,000 de- manded should be inserted mm one year’s tax levy or ‘bo incorporated in several. He insisted that under tho acts passed by the Legislature in regard to the matter, as well as under the provisions of the military code, the building of a special armory for the special use of the Seventh regiment was not only legal, but an urgent public necessity. He passed a glowing eulogy on the “gallant Seventh” ana urged that for a regiment of its brilliant record and promptitude on every occasion to Tespond to a call for its services, 1t was asking but a small favor of the city to furnish it with a suitable ar- mory and drilroom. A block of ground bounded by Sixty-sixth and Sixty-seventh streets, between Fourth and Lexington avenues, belunging to the city, had been secured at a nominal lease for the purpose. The regi- mont had guaranteed to pay the expense of keeping in order the armory, and, the building once erected, no further exponso would be entailed on the city. Corporation Counsel Whitney in opening his reply stated that no one stood more ready than himself to pay fts just meed of praise to the Seventh regiment, ut the question at present before the Courthe in- sisted was solely a legal one. In reference to the lease, he claimed that by its terms the lands ceased to vest in the city, except in fee, and could not, there- fore, be’ designated by the Aldermen. Moreover, it was argued that the city could not appropriate for a building over which it would have no con- trol, and in this case the designation was nonsense and appropriation would be a virgual nullification of the lease given by the city. It was also argued that one of the recent amendments to the constitution expressly forbids donations of public money to individuals or cor- porations, He contended, also, that in making this ap- propriation other regiments would be asking for similar appropriations for armories for themselves. He claimed that this was against the system of the military code. In conclusion he raised various technical objections, ‘among them that it was too late for the mandamus to issue, that the Board of Estimate and Apportionment Tad already exhausted its powers and was functus oficio as far as regarded the issuing of a mandarnus, Mr. John 8. Strahan followed in a few observations, after which further remarks were made by Messrs. Olney and Whitney, At the close of Mr. Whitney's concluding remarks Judge Donohue took the papers jor examination, DECISION IN BANKRUPTCY. In the caso of Delos W. Getchell, an tnvoluntary bankrupt, Judge Blatchford, of the United States Dis- trict Court, gave yesterday a decision embracing sev- eral important points in bankruptcy proceedings. Tho following is a statement of the facts of the case and epitome of the opinion given by Judge Blatchford em- bodying his decision. The petition was filed February 25, 1875. An order ‘was issued to show cause, returnable on March 6, 1875. The petition was verified. by the taking ot oaths before a notary public, before the publication of the United States Revised Statutes, approved June 22, 1874, repeal- ing the statute which authorized oaths to be taken be- fore notaries public to be used in proceedings in tho United States courts, On March 6, 1875, proof of service of the petition and order to show cause on the debtor was presented to the Court in the form of an affidavit made by William ©. Gaylor, and sworn to betore a notary public, The affidavit contained no name. In it the officer swore that he had served a certified copy of the petition and of the order to show cause on Delos W. Getchell, of the city of New York, on February 26, 1875, by leaving the same personally with him. On the same day an order of adjudication was entered in the default of Getchell to appear. ‘Thereupon a warrant was issued and his property taken and turned over to an assignee, and a number of proofs ofdebt were filed, and the bankr@pt filed an appli- cation for his discharge, the proceedings being now depending undetermined before a register. On Novem- ber 1, 1875, a creditor, who is not shown to have proved his debt, presented a petition to the Court, praying to have the adjudication and subsequent proceedings ‘vacated, on the grounds that the original petition was reviewed before a notary public; that no deposition as to any act of bankruptcy nor deposition as to-any claim of any petitioning creditor is to bo found on the files ‘of the Court; that snch depositions have never been presented to the Court nor filled in it, that the proof of service of the petition and order to ‘show cause, on the debtor, were defective in that the name was not stated therein, that the oaths were taken be- fore a notary public, and that it did not allege that the petition and the order to show cause were served on the debtor by delrvering the same to him personally, ‘or by leaving the same at his last place of abode, an that no order of publication had been entered or ob- tained. In his decision Judge Blatchford says;—‘‘As to the verification of the petition before a notary pub- lic, this was irregular; but the irregularity did not effect the jurisdiction of the Court, If, before the order of adjudication was entered, the irregularity bad been brought to the notice of the Court, !t could and would have been remedied; but the question as to whether the petition is verified before a proper officer is one of ractice and not ‘Of jurisdiction, It is competent for the Court to de- cide thai {t has been verified before a proper officer, and when it has so Aecided, and an order of judica- tion has been entered, it is tod late for the debtor or any creditor to raise the question. * * Astothe depositions which are not now to be found on file, and which, it ts alleged, were never filed, the objection is of the same character with tnat in regard to the verifi- cation of the | eionege * * * Tho objection in re- spect to the absence of the statement of any venue in the affidavit of service of the petition and order to OW Cous¢ on the debtor, and the objection that such amidavit was sworn to before a notary public, and the objection that such affidavit did not allege that the petition and the order to show cauge weré served on the debtor by delivering the same to him personally or by leaving the same at his last place of residence, and that no order for the publication of the same had been entered or obtained, are not tenable. They are not inde by the debtor, but by a creditor who does not bring them to the attention of the Court until nearly six months after an adjudication of bankruptcy has ween entered. The application is denied, with costs, HEAVY LIBEL SUITS. fhe managers of the Daily Graphie have brought in the Court of Common Pleas six suits against the New York Times for alleged libel, claiming $100,000 in each suit, making a total of $600,000 sued for, In four of these suits the summons and complaints were served yesterday, and as the calendars of the Court of Common Pleas aro less burdened with cases than those of the other State courts it is quite likely that they may reach a speedy trial. The complaints are voluminous in their details, The alleged libellous statements are that Goodsell the Graphic and the Spectator, were retained by democratic lead- rs in this State to use money against the Allen Toker in Ohio; that they had from time to time bled with great success various insurance companies; that they have long continued to use journalism in a way which ought to have landed them securely in the Pen- itentiary, that they had endeavored to blackmail Jay Gould; that “there are on file at Albany reports of legislative committees, showing that these men re- ceived moneys from officers of insurance compunies to procure whitewashing statements from @ corrupt State official,” and finally that they were ejected in disgrace from the HeraLy for stealing its telegrams for the nse of Western papers.

Timothy J. Campbell and Frederick G. Gedney, the newly elected Civil Justices in the Fourth and Eighth districts respectively, were yesterday sworn into oflice by Judge Donohue, of the Supreme Court. The contest over the will of Patrick Burke, which was begun in the Surrogate’s Court last September, was concluded yesterday. Three of the testator’s children contested the validity of the will, on the ground of undue influence and incapacity. A number of witnesses were examined on both sides, and the testimony !s quite voluminous. J, F. Swanton and Alfred Roe appeared for proponents; Flanagan and Bright for contestants, In the case of the United States vs. Mrs. Elien Do Mott and her daughter, Miss Ella Kinney, for making and passing counterfeit five cent nickel pieces, a further hearing was had yesterday before United States Commissioner Shiclds, They were cach held in default of $1,000 bail to await the action of the Grand Jury. Two assignments were filed yesterday in the Court of Common Pleas. The first was that of Wm, A, Turnam to Clarence EB. Secor, the lubilities being stated at $24,801 18 and assets $7,200 13; and the second that of George M. Vanderlip and Jolin Taytor to Albert Capwell, the liabilities being stated at $88,727 51 and assets $5,013 48, The motion to vacate the order of arrest or reduce bail in the Tweed $1,000,000 suit was set down for argu- ment yesterday before Judge Dohohue, in Supreme Court, Chambers. Messrs, Dudley Field and Wheeler H, Peckham, opposing counsel, were both present, but after some discussion the argument was postponed until to-morrow, In the suit brought by Roebling and others against Duncan, Shermgp & Co. to recover some $4,000 on a letter of credit, alr, Francis H. Green, a member of the firm, was examined yesterday on supplementary pro- ceedings. Very little information of a definite char- acter was obtained, through objections interposed to most of the questions, the argument upon which was postponed until to-morrow, Those objectionable ques- tions had reference mainly to the amount of capital . possessed by the firm shortly previous to its failure, It was claimed that the assets were fully shown in the schedule filed subsequent to the assignment, United States Deputy Marshal Newcomb yesterday arrested Julius Witkowsk! in y, under @ warrant from the Supreme Court of Washington, District of Co- jumbia, and took him before United States Commis- sioner Osborn, by whom he was remanded to the cus- tody of the Marshal to be taken to Washington for trial. Mr, Samuel Boardman, counsel for the prisoner, applied to Judge Blatchford {n the United States Dis- trict Court to have the prisoner admitted to bail, which ‘was granted and the bail fixed at $10,000. It appears that on the 20th of last October indictments were found and filed in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia against Julius Witkowski, David C, Stewart, Henry Fetterberg, Aaron Brummer and’ General James §. Negley for an alleged conspiracy 10 defraud the United States out of $20,000 by offering a false claim upon it, The specification is that 4,140 logs of wood were furnished in October, 1862,’ to Captain James St, Clair Morton, Engineer of the United States Army, tor the defence of Nasbville, Tenn., and that General Negley certified to the correctness of said claim without any” personal knowledge of the trans- action, In the Marine Court yesterday, there was called for trial the suit of Townsend and others against Crow. The action, which was to recover $1,200 for liquors sold to the defendant, who keeps a saloon, had been already frequently adjourned on the appli- cation of detendant, A similar effort to a journ was made yesterday, but denied, and the case ordered to go on pereniptorily. While awaiting the conclusion of another case, the defendant Crow fre- quently left the court, and on each return showed in- creasing signs of having indulged in stimulants, When the case was finally reached and it became necessary for Mr. Crow, who js large of sizo, to go to the witness stand he give a sudden lurch from his chair and spread his wings on the floor, to the consternation of several lawyers who happened to be in the line of his down- ward flight. Mr, Drake, his counsel, soon came to his relief and put him again to roost on his chair, but it was evident he was in no condition for any very high flight as a witness. Under the circumstances it was concluded to adjourn the cause and let it go before a referee, the very thing, doubtless, which Mr, Crow want A TRIER TRIED. In the Court of General Sessions yesterday morning Mr. Algernon §, Sullivan summed up the testimony for the defence of the alleged German Baron, Ludwig A. Trier, on trial upon a charge of embezzling the sum of $1,900, the property of his employer, Henri Carié, an imporier of French millinery goods, at No. 23 Union square. He made an elaborate and comprehensive argument, the delivery of which occupied nearly two hours, and in which the evidence was analyzed with the skill of a master, For the prosecution Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Bell made a concise argument, which arrested the attention of the jury for forty minutes. Recorder Hackett then occupied five minutes in the delivery of a characteristically brief and pointed charge, in which he deplored the amount of time spent in trying the cause, which, he thought, could have been tried ag well in an hour. He instructed the jury that the ife of the accused, the social status of his family, his personal habits and various other subjects upon which evidence had been given, were entirely extraneous to the case. The issue involved was whether the accused had or had not ay Irep bar the property of the complainant. If the jury believed Trier’s story about the loss of the money; f they were not absolutely certain that his story was false, they were bound to acquit him. After deliberat- ing for more than an hour the jury returned and av- nounced their inability to agree upon a verdict. After asstiring himself that there was no possibility of their coming to a conclusion, His Honor discharged them. Nine for acquittal and three for conviction was an- nounced as the way the jury stood. WASHINGTON PLACE POLICE: COURT. Before Judge Morgan. A DISHONEST PORTER. For some time past Mr. Martin Bates, doing business at No, 491 Broome street, has missed different pack. ages from his store, and, after investigation, he con- ciuded that the goods were purloined by the porter, a man who had been three years in his employ. A Central Office detective was engaged, and a trap was laid for Sigel, the ports A certain package of green silk was placed in a convenient place and he was seen fore him to appropriate, by. Mr. Bates yesterday to take the package and bring it down to the cellar, About dinner time Sigel went down into the cellar, put the package under his cont and went out of the store. Sigel was followed by a detective toa pawn office, kept by Charles Casey, atNo, 2Thonipson street. The detective, who went into the place on the pretence of wishing to purchase a violin, saw Sigel receive $2 from a woman behind tho counter and heard her say, “Call on Friday and I will gr you the rest,” Immediately after Sigel’s exit rom the pawn office he was arrested and brought to the Central Office. When taken before Judge Morgan yesterday afternoon he pleaded guilty to two separate charges of grand larceny, and was committed in $1,000 bail to answer each at Gen Sessions. Mr. Bates estimates his loss from Sigel’s operations to be at least | ARREST OF A HORSE THIEF. On Tuesday morning a man named John McAndrews, alias John Houne, called at the livery stable of Mr Abraham M. Stein, No, 229 Washington street, Brooklyn and hired a horse and buggy, as he stated, to take ¢ drive on Long Island, promising to be back at ono o’clock in the day. Instead of driving on Long Island ws, alias Houne, crossed over the ferry to New York and drove up to Johnson’s sale stables, No, 74 University place, where he sold the horse at auction $30 and the harness for $20, The property was traced to this place by OMcer Leacock, of the Fifieonth precinct, who yesterday arrested the thief.

FIFTY-SEVENTH STREET COURT. Before Judge Murray. A BOGUS BILL OF EXCHANGE. Frederick H. Conkling was arraigned on a charge of false protences, preferred by Martin Needham, of No, 552 West Fifty-second street, ‘The defendant keeps a branch office of the St, Nicholas Insurance Company on the corner of Twenty-third street and Third avenue, On the dIst of July last Needham went to Conkling’s office and asked him to change into British currency a one thousand dollar United States bond, worth, in- cluding interest, $1,100, Needham intended sailing for Ireland in a few days; hence his object in having the bond exchanged. Conkling agreed not only to exchange the bond but to purchase Needham’s passage ticket, for which he charged $52. Iu part payment of the remain- der Needham received $100 in United States currency and about $50 in British gold coin. A draft or bill of exchange on the Munster Bank in Dublin, payable to Needham’s order, was given for the balance of the money, $960, or its equivalent, £165. Conkling repre- ted to Needham that to make this drait good he had deposited moneys with F. Kun & Co., No. 113 Broad- way, the agouts of said bank. (n_ presentation to the bank in Dublin payment was refused, and it then Sppnanes that Conkling had no authority to draw upon the bank, having no account with or funds to hiscredit deposited there. On his return to this city Needham also learned from Kuhn & Co, that Conkling had deposited no money with them to mect bis dratt, Conkling ciatms to be innocent and says that the whole trouble must be the result of a mistake somewhere, The examination was postponed for three weeks, Conkling hopes by the expiration of that time to have evidence from Ireland showing that the draft had been honored and the money paid.

FAILURE OF A SAVINGS BANK IN A FACTORY TOWN UNDER SUSPICIOUS CIRCUMSTANCES, Lrttie Fauus, N. Y., Nov. 23, 1875. A few years ago aprivate banking house was opened in this village by a firm known as Burke & Hiley. They conducted business on a large scale, and were not long in securing a large share of the deposits of the business community. From the manner of living adopted by each member of the firm they were apparéntly backed by unlimited capital, and the confidence of the commu- nity was reposed in them without question. Inaddition to the general banking business conducted by Burke & Hiley, they had a savings department, where up to Inst week over $90,000 of the small savings of factory girls and other laboring people had accumulated. A year ago they erected a bank building which cost $75,000, The residences of the firm were the finest in the place. Recently ugly rumors in relation to their financial standing began to circulate, but notwith- standing the fact that several shrewd business men drew out their deposits from the bank and warned others that the concern was irresponsible, the mass of the people retained confidence in the firm and refused to believe there was anything wrong with them, until Thursday last, when it was offi:ially announced that they had suspended payment, .he aews soon spread through the village and the wiltest excitement pro- vailed among the unfortunate depositors, Women and children, employés of the factories, congregated about the palatial building where their savings were buried, and their lamentations were very pathetic. J. W. Cronkhite, a capable and honest resident of the village, has been appointed assignee of tho broken firm. From the hasty examination he has made into the bank affairs he judges that it will be an almost hopeless task to save anything for the depositors. The very best that he can promise will be less than a saving of twenty per cent. Burke & Hiley claim that they lost $30,000 on their bank building, $15,000 on a knitting mill project and large sums in Midkind Railroad bond speoulations. The bank is mortgaged for $40,000 and the other property of the firm is covered with liens, Itisnow known that the firm commenced business here without a dollar in cap- ital and the general opinion js that the failure is not genuine and that the firm have provided well for them- selves, The liabilities will reach, it is thought, over $150,000, with no visible assets, The indiggation among the populace is intense, THE BROOKLYN SAVINGS BANKS, The excitement attending the proposea reduction of the rate of interest among the savings banks of Brook- lyn, as was naturally anticipated, is very general, and much indignation is expressed among depositors at the plea put forward by the advocates of the scheme, who aseert that the surplus in the banks cannot find an in- vestment, This excuse is regarded as untenable, A prominent official, interested in one of the leading monetary tstitutions in tho city, said yesterday that the obnoxious movement was put on foot by ex-Senator John ©. Perry, counsel for the Long Island Savings Bank, and the Mayor elect, Mr, Frederick A. Schroeder, who is President of the Germania Savings Bank. The President of the Emigrants’ Savings Bank, Mr. Dough- erty, was also, itis said, one of the projectors of duction policy. The proposition to reduce the rate of interest from six to five per cent is opposed, it is claimed, by the directors and officers of tho Dime Sav- ings Bank, Williamsburg Savings Bank, Brooklyn, South Brooklyn and other leading banks. ’ They claim to have ample surplus, aud have ali their bonds in- vested in long seven per cent securities. THE BURNED STEAMBOAT. ‘The pilot and engineer of the Staten Island ferryboat D. R. Martin, which was burned to the water's edge off Tompkinsville, made thetr reports of the occurrence to tho United States Local Inspectors of Steamships in this city yesterday, The statements do not indicate the cause of the fir, An investigation will be mado next week to determine the cause, “YOUR. MONEY OR YOUR LIFE!” On Saturday night last, as Mr. Stephen Borgen, a farmer, residing on the Jamaica and Flushing road, about three miles from the village of Jamaica, was re- turning ho was stopped by three highwaymen, who de- manded his money or his life, One of the ruffians held the horse, while The ‘aner ry robbed Mr. Bergen of $22, and ‘the three then made their bo the woods, Mr. Bergen, being an old man, was unable to defend himself WILLIAMSBURG SMELLS. George Kubler, the proprietor of a fat rendering es- tablishment at East Williamsburg, indicted for main- taining @ nuisance, was tried in the Queens County Court of Sessions yesterday, convicted and fined $125, and the Sheriff was ordered to see that the nuisance was abated within thirty days, Kubler was defended by Mr. L. Bradford Prince and Justice Slocum of Newtown. Slocum, in addition to being a Justice of the Peace, is a member of the Board of Health, which wocured Kubler’s indictment. Dr. Zink and Justice ‘urphy, also members of the Board, testified in behalf of the defendant, while Supervisor Burroughs and Justice Burcham, two ether members, gave evidence for the prosecution, Kubler’s establishment has for a long time been regarded as a nuisance in the neighbor- hood, but he has until now managed to escape the penaity for maintaining it, although several times pros- ecuted. © ‘Ty REAL ESTATE FOR SALE, Central.
