8 THE COURTS ——_— End of the Snow Plough Controver UMPORTANT DECISION BY JUDGE SEDGWICK, It will be remembered that about a month ago a number of the residents living on the line of the Forty- second Street and Twenty-third Street Railroad took the initiative in what bas turned out to bea general crusade against the use of the snow: plough and sweeper on the horse railroads in this city, It is urged that the snow plough, which bas been in general use, 4s an unmitigated nuisance, causing such obstructions in the strect as are, im fact, quite dangerous, The first suit brought this winter was that of Mr. Prime and others against the Forty-second and venty third Street Railroad, This case was betore Judge Sedgwick, in the Supenor , Special Term. On the argument beiore him it was contended on the ‘tof the defence that the rail- road charter implied all necessary means for running » cars, one of which in the winter was plough ; that the tracks could not be otherwise and the public who travel on the cars, to the number of thousands per day, would be seriously !nconvenienced ; and, irrespective of the expense, it was utterly impossi- ble to procure carts enough to clear olf the snow as fast as it fell. On the other side, it was argued that the snow could be removed easily enough before it hard- ened; that the defendants were allowed to use the street, but not occupy i exclusively por pileup ice on the sidewalks, and that the’ ques- tion of profit to the railroad was never consid- ered by the Legislature, and that a protracted blocking up of the strects was never intended to be allowed. he A written opinion, covering twenty-three pages of closely written toolscap, Judge Sedgwick im bis decision sets forth the claims and arguments on each Side, examines the bearing of the Bumerous “casos” on the question at issu nd concludes :— “The defendant was not so performing a legal duty in removing the snow from its track, under its obliga- tion to keep its cars running, that 1t cannot be held re- sponsibie for any consequences of the removal, The plaintiff suffers dn injury peculiar to himself from the ance, and can maintain this action, The therefore, should be enjoined from forming Twenty-third street, at the side of its track, piles f the Snow removed from its track by the snow h or other means, except for the purpose of Z ame taken away within @ time reasonably re- d for such taking away.”? SUMMARY OF LAW CASES. The Examiners met in the General Term room yes- terday, and were oceupied a great portion of tho day in examining a class of six young gentlemen for admis- sion tothe Bar, Messrs. Lewis L. Delafield, J. D. Lawrence and Everett S. Wheeler are the examiners. The appeal ip the case of the People ex rel. Douglas ‘Taylor against Thomas C, Duntap will be argued in the General Term of the Supreme Court to-morrow morn- yng. The case, as will be remembered, was brougnt to test the legality of Mr. Dunlap’s appointment as Com- missioner of Jurors. In the case Jotte against Mrs. of Mme. Nellu Eugene Gil- Jackson for defamation of character, the full amount of damages asked for- being $5,000, was rendered by the jury, In May, 1874, Mrs, Gillotte was engaged in the costume business on West Thirty-second street, and numbered among her patrons many of the first families of the city. During the month and year mentioned two girls in her employ were on the eidowalk in front | 01 Mrs. Jackson's house, which was opposite Mme, Gil. Jotte’s, listening to the music of a band of street mu- sicians Mrs, Jackson’s son ordered the girls away, and, they refusing, an altercation was the result Mrs. Jackson, indignant at the scene, went to Jefferson Market Police Court and swore out a warrant for tho arrestof Mme. Gillotte, stating in the complaint that she had instigated the girls to create a disturbance. On examination, Justice Murray honorably discharged Mme. Gillotte, and the latter forthwith began the suit for damages which bas just ended in a verdict before Judge Speir, of the Superior Court, larger than was ever rendered in this city for malicious prosecution. The case of J. Alers vs. Captain Nichols, of the brig H. G. Sibley, camo up again before United States Com- missioner Osborn yesterday, Captain Nichols was arrested upon the ante-mortem statement of Alers, in | which he claims that be bad been inbumanly treated and defrauded of bis pay by Captain Nichols; that he was dying from blows inflicted upon him during the voyage; also that Alers, upon his arrival in Brooklyn, had told his story to Captain C. C. Duncan, United States heels Commissioner, who re- fused him any aid whatever. Mr. Howe appeared {or | ‘tho defendant, the entire crew of the brig being pres- sent as witnesses. A document was read from a phy- sician in Philadelphia, who found Alers euffering trom inflammation of the lungs. Captain Duncan stated that ed him he appeared to be in good | no reference to bis having been Dadly treated by Captain Nichola, but simply said that he had been defrauded of his pay. The further exam- Ynation was postponed until next Tuesday, at threo »’clock P. M.

They were committed for examibation by United States Commissioner Bet Tne internal revenue officers, have for several months past been making seizures of whiskeys and Spirits forwarded bere from the West, For the con- demnation of these spirits numerous suits have been brought w the United States District Court Judge Biatchiord covered several of these suits yesterday by grapting a motion made by Roger M. Sherman, As- Bistant United States Attorney, that commissions be | Issued to the West to take testimony respecting these | frauds. From the large amount of “crooked stu” | shipped to New York the government ofticors have | been led to suspect that parties who have received | ‘thom bere are complicated in the fraud. There is but | fittle doubt that when the matter is sifted to the bot: tom the frauds of the West will be matched by those | of the Bast, — { TOMBS POLICE COURT. | Before Judge Flammer.

Judgo Sutherland yesterday listened to a motion of a very interesting character, and which {is almost un- precedented, George W. Miles appeared as atworney for the Commissioners of Charities of Kings county, who desire to compel Mrs. Abigail N. Keanier, who lives at the Grand Union Hotel, im this city, to sup- | port her father, Addison Alger, of No. % Cheever place, Brooklyn, aged eighty-two, and his second wife, aged Seventy.two, From the testimony given yester- day by Mr. Alger, !t appears that he was some years ago @ prominent batider in this city and Brooklyn, and other public buildings be erected the roadway Theatre, He is now feeble, affected with a variety of ail- ments, and utterly without means of support. Many ‘ears ago his first wife obtained a divorce from him in {iltnotaon the ground of crue! and inbuman treatment, Abrahain Lincoln, then practising his profession, acting as her counsel About the same time Alj only child, Mra, Kenpter, procured from her hus! a di. voree and a decree of alrmony.

Mr. Alger testified that his fake, bas anincome of $1,600a year and ‘that she declines to contribute to the support of himself and wile. It was claimed by defendant's counsel and not denied by the other side that Mra Kenpier was quite willing to have ber father come aud live with , hough she firmly declined to have anything to do with bis wife, Itaiso appeared that Alger has living four sisters and two brothers, one of the latter Doing a tea dealer st No. 135 Front street and reputed wealthy, and that his wife basa rich son, who !s a manofacturing jeweller and lives in Lexington avenua Mra Keanier's counsel claimed that ahe had been posed to her father’s marriago, and that she should BOt Dow be called upon ta contribute to the support of this wife while the latter has direct relatives who are better able to help ber. Judge Sutherland, on learning this much of the case, adjourned its further hearing for two weeks, KINGS COUNTY SUPERVISORS SUED.

The new Tammany Hall Executive Committee, which has formerly been called the Committee on Organizi- on, met yesterday afternoon for organization, All the members except two were present The meeting was calied to order by Hon. Augustus Schell, who stated the purposes for which they had come together. Messrs, Ackerman and Quincy were elected temporary Secretaries, and the Cominitiee then proceeded to the election of its officers. The districts were called in pumerical order, and each nominated John Kelly for chairman. His clection wag unanimous, and the fol- lowing were then elected by ballot:— Vice Presidents—Joseph J, Donohue and Jacob A. Gross. Secretaries—Henry D. Purroy, of the Twenty-fourth ward; George H. Morton, of the Ninth Assembly dis- trict; William H. Rooney, of the Third, and Edmund M.

The politicians around the City Hall were again busily occupied yesterday in speculating on tbe probable con- firmation of Mr. Allan Campbell as Commissioner of Public Works, At first sight it appeared to be clear sailing for Mr. Campbell, but several of the democratic Aldermen express contrary opinions on the subject. A report has been circulated that Mr. Campbell, acting as one of the engineers of the Fourth avenue improve- ments, paid the laborers $1 25 per day. As Commis- missioner Porter had fixed the rates at $1 60 per day, and was rojected by the Board of Aldermen for so doing, sotne of these gentlemen now argue that it would be manifestly inconsistent to confirm the second nomi- nee, who has paid a much less sum. The readiness with which the republican side of the Board has accepted the name of Mr. Campbell has also caused the democrats to consider more carefully before they Pledge themselves to any positive lime ofaction, Itis also claimed that the gentieman is @ republican in politics, although now apparently acting with the dem- ‘cratic party. Mr. Campbell, being out of town, has not yet signi- fied his intention to the Mayor of accepting or reject- ing the plece, 1f contirmed by the Board of Aldermen, Mr, Thomas Cooper Campbell, ex-Member of Assembly, however, states that he is ina position to promise the coptance of his father, A special meeting of the joard will probably be held next week to take action on the tiomination.

The lowest bid for the coal contract was $6 15 per ton and for the flour contract $5 22}¢ per barrel, TO IMPROVE THE POLICE. Police Commissioner Erbardt yesterday summoned before him Inspectors Dilks, McDermott, Thorne and Speight, to get the benefit of their long experience as policemen, with a view of improving certain of the rules of the department now in force. An extended conference, occupying nearly two hours, took place Each inspector expressed himself at length as to what measures should be adopted for creating greater efficiency in the department A considerable portion of the time was employed in overhaul- ing the duties laid down for captains and in comparing them with the conduct of many of those officials, The general opinion seemed to be that under the present m captains are permitted to spend too much of their time away from their precincta Several other matters in the same connection, partic. ularly the system of transfers, were talked over, and it 18 probable that on Tuesday next Commissioner Erhardt will present as the result of his labors, to the full Board, a series of amended rules aiming at holding cap- tains in the future to a stricter accountability than at present, THE PEOPLE'S SAVINGS BANK. MEETING OF DEPOSITORS LAST EVENING, A meeting of the depositors of the People’s Savings Bank held a meeting last evening, in Germania Hall, corner of Third avenue and Eighteenth street, for the purpose of hearing the report of their counsel, ex- Judge White Thero were about fifty depositors pres- ent Judge White spoke at considerable length, stat ing that he had ben to Albany for the purpose of see | ing the Attorney General with regard to obtaining a change of venue for the case from Albany county to New York county. The Attorney General was absent in Buffalo trying the Lord case, but Judge White saw his assistant, Mr. Page, who stated that he was satisfied Mr. Fairchild would readily wccede to the request The Bank Department was also conferred with, and stated that no objection to the pro action would come from that quarter, On Judge White's return he met Mr. French, the receiver of the bank, and be stated that he was willing to have the case transferred to this county, and added that he would give the depositors five days’ no- tice of any proposed motion on his part tending to the sale of any of tho assets of the bank. This would afford the depositors, through their counsel, an opppriunity | to protect their mterests to the fullest extent ‘At the conclusion of Judge White’s remarks the seo- retary of the meeting stated that he, tocether with several other gentlemen, bad made a pretty thorough examination of the assets of the defunct bank and was confident that the depositors would eventually get sixty-five per centof their deposits. They could get twenty-five per cent on the ist of. March and another twenty-five per cent thirty days later. Mr. Warren, the expert accountant, who is examining the accounts of tho bank, had stated to the secretary (hat there was an Cent ai deficiency of $22,000 but a real deficiency of $75,000.
