Conclusion of the Central Branch Union Pacific Railroad Suit. RECEIVERSHIP THAT WENT A BEGGING. Supplemental Answer Allowed in the Tweed One Million Suit Gettlement of the Commissioners of Jurors’ Controversy. The Central Branch Union Pacific Railroad suit on trial before Judge Larremore, holding Supreme Court, Circuit, for several days, was yesterday brought to a close, which was much sooner than was anticipated. At the opening of the court'Mr, Effington H. Nichols, for the defence, was questioned by Mr. Besch, counsel for Mr. Samuei L. Tredweil, the plaintif, and stated ‘that im addition to the asvots mentioned the day be- foro there were $600,000 m land coniracis, made by Settlers for lands purchased. He denied having been elected treasurer for the parties in the contract or even having acted as such. Mr, James Wadsworth was then recalled for the plaintiff apd sworn to a revolution which he said ‘was in the handwriting of Thomas M. fother, which Mr. Beach then read as follows:— “Moved by Hale, seconded by E, H. Nichols, Re- solved, That ihe ‘Ireasurer of parties in interest, E, H, Nichols, Esq.,’ be desired to request Wiliam Osborn to iorwara, with his drafts, a memorandum of {he expenses for which tuo same are drawn.” It was tlso shown that the reason the lands remained with the company was that if was considered advisable, as she company was active in Washington for additional subsidy, Willits Gaylord, being recalied, stated there was a minute book of the company prior to the oue | produced; it was kept in Kansas and atterward in bis | Office, in this city, Bon-production — of he would show by the tain syockholdors that Mr. Fuilerton had Berted were siockholdérs, but not interested in the contract. Mr. Mount, associate counsel, said he had subpenaed both Mr. Nichols and Sother to pro- duce it. . As it was not tortheoming Mr. Beach pro- eeeded, under ruling of Judge Larremore, and showed by the Witnessthai the stock referred to had not any existence and that tho parties referred to had uo stand- ing in this action. Further extracis trom the minutes ofthe parties in interest iv the contract were then read ant the exum:ation of witnesses ended. It was agreed ‘by counsel that their brieis should be handed to Judge Larremore within ten day: A VALUABLE RECEIVERSHIP. is well known the courts have it in their power ntly to give to their favorites profitable re- seivershtps, But there are some receiverships that fre not as profitable us others, as Was illustrated in the case brought yesterday before Judge McAdam. Some time since Giacomo Lizzardi obtained ® wadgment against Guisseppi Bafll for $85 for moneys loaned the latter, being an Italian organ grinder. The execution was placed in tho hands of a deputy eherif, who found that the only property which the deiendant possessed was a band organ, a monkey and,adog. The Sheriff, how- ever, did not think it worth while to take posession of this property, and accordingly returned the execu- tion unsatisfied.’ Proceedings were hud yesterday for the exummation of the defendant as a judgment debtor, Bafl testitied to bis ownership of the nand organ, monkey und dog, and that these comprised the sum tnd saistance of his worldly goods. *f ask,’ said Mr. William F. Kintzing, counsel, “the appointin “Who would you suggest as such receiver ?”’ inquired Judge McAdam. “Sr. George L. Simonson,” answered Mr. Kintzing, “a most worthy and trusty man?” “TL object,” interposed Mr, Simonson, “as I have no var for music, no fondness for monkeys, and a special fislike for dogs, particularly at this season of the rear. is there any lawyer present,” asked Jadge McAdam, “who differs from Mr. Simonson and has.a fondness for organs, monkeys and dogs!’’ After waiting for awhile, and there being no re:pouse among the legal fraternity present, Judge McAdam added, ‘I see none of you have any musicin your soula) I know rman who wilj most admirably fli all there requisitions, Ho is not present, but I know he wiil feel highly honored attne position, and will discharge the cuties with leg The Court appoints as such receiver Michael 4 A spirited debate eusued over the this Mr. Beach said A relation of cer- As bcarsareges! ~- A JUDICIAL ENDEMIC: Just after reaching the Court House Judge Donohue was taken suddenly ill by an attack of vertigo which tompelled his being placed in a carriage and taken im- ‘mediately to his residence, The result was that no Bapreme Coort, Chambers, was held. Judge Donohue is the fifth judge of the State courts now on the sick list, the entire list comprising Chief Justice Davis, Judges Lawrence and Donohue, of the Supreme Court, and Chief Justice Monell and Judye Van Vorst, of the Superior Court. Thus far the judges of the Court of Common Pleas have seémed to escape the judicial endemic. The concurrent iilness of so many judges ig attributable to the poor ventilation of the Court House--a subject, by the way, which is now being in- sestizated by the Board of Health, and which it is to be hoped will terminate in the adopting of proper remedial measares to insure vetter health to the judges of the court, THE TWEED ONE MILLION SUIT. A motion was made yesterday before Judge Barrett, of the Supreme Court, by Messrs. Field & Deyo, counsel for William M. Tweed, for leave to serve a sup- plemental answer in the $1,000,000 suit against Will- mm M. Tweed. The text of this supplemental answor has already been published in the Heraup, Judge Barrett ranted the motion. This looks very much as though Mr. fweed’s counsel were making ail due preparations on tueir side to try the case on the first Monday of next month, the time arranged by Judge Westbrvok for this trial, THR CUMMmiosSIONER OF JURORS, The Court of Appeals gave its decision yesterday, Jadge Audrews writing the opinion, in the case in the quo warranto writ brought by Douglas Taylor to test . ‘the legality of the appointment by Mayor Havemeyer of Thomas Dunlap as Commissioner of Jurors in place ‘of Douglas Taylor. The progress of the litigation im | the lower courts has been given from time to time in the Hexatp. The Supreme Court, Genera! Term, decided against Mr Taylor, who carried the caso to the Court of Is, where the same assertions were raised; Mr, 4. Oakey Hall appearing for tho appellants and’ Mr. William M. Evarts for the respondent, asin the a= ment atthe General Term. It was urged on behalf of Mr. Taylor that ander the act of 1847, creating the office of Commissioner of Jurors, the office was a county office, and that, therefore, the Mayor bad not the right do remove or appoint the incumbent, and further, that the act of 1873, giving the Mayor the right to ‘remove the Commissioner of Jurors, is unconstitutional, as the power to make such appointment and removal Ie oot embraced 1m the title The Court of Ap} overrules both of these objections and holds that tho act of 1873 vested the power of appointinent of Com. @issioner of Jurors in the Mayor and Common Council; that this made tt distinetty a city office, what- ever may have been its previous character; that there is no delect of legislative power to provide thatthe Jury abould be administered by city oillcers; that it lw for the Legislature to distribute the powers of local government as between the city and county governments as it may deem best; that this discretion, when not restrained or excluded by some provision of the constitution, is abort: and that no buch provision by es je tothe matter under consid- eration exists, Court thereiore ailirms the judg- mont of the Supreme Court, conclusion, that the sabject of the appointment of a Commiss:oner of Jurors was embraced within the gen- | subject expreased in the title of the act of 187; ‘end that Mr. Dunlap, the preseut incumbent, was = gaily appointed to the oilice. SETTLED IN COURT. ‘When the case of Fernand Jardell, the young Ffench- man, of No. 136 Bleecker strect, arrested on Monday Bight by Detectives McNamara and Kennedy, of the Central office, for passing @ worthless Mexican draft for $550 on S. Z Ball & Co., piano makers, of East Four- teenth street, came up before Justice Murray in the Tombs yesterday, a somewhat singular proceeding was noticed, It ged that the facts in the case were that Jardell, who is the nophew of a prominent wine Merchant, called on Ball & Co. and purchased a $375 » Biving them in the draft for $550 ome by Garcia Pe of Vera Cruz They check for the balance gave him a dated & month ah alter, his arrest.

Washburn vs. De Wolf and another.—The considera- tion of a note between the original parties 1s always | open to examination. The answer assails the consid- eration and avers that none cxisted. The allegations | oi the answer are peculiar, and may be said to be in- artistically drawn; but, considered together, present a efence if established in whole or in part to the claim. | They cannot ul! be considered frivolous, although some may be irrelevant, The issues thus made, 1 am sats- fled, cannot be tried by a jury. ‘The items of the plain- tift’s account, as shown by the reply, are very bumer- ous, and the examination ofa long account must be- come necessary.

This witness | testified to having made a fac-simile of the seal of the New York Central Railroad for Roverts a short time | before the utterance of the spurious bonds by the pris- oner. Louis J.

He stated shat he bad vain to obtain empioyment for some time, when he was introduced to a Colonel French by an old nd, Colonel Potter.

His leaving the thirty $1,000 bonda on the counter ot Eddie & Co., No. 26 Pine street, on the 25th of August, 1878, he explained by stating that he merel; | Went out to keep an engagement to meet Colonel Frenc! at the Stevens House, and that when he saw that | gentieman the latter informed him that there was | something wrong about the bonds, as he bad just Jearued, but be did not state what it was. He then in- | | Vited Williamson to come over to his house in Jersey | | City, and the latter without returning tor t.e bonds | accepted tho invitation, and was astonished on reading his name in the papers on the following day as ‘Will- | tamson, the notorious forger.’? The witness further | stated that !e had been in New York almost con- | | Unuously since that time.

While thus in the Confederate service, real estate situate in the | city of Washington wos seized by order of the Prest- | dent, under the Confiscation act of July 17, 1862, and a libel for its condemnation was duly fied. ‘The lot of ground reapeoting which the present contro- versy exists wis condemned as forteited to the United States on the 29th day of July, 1863, and | Of September next following it was ‘sold un | vendition! expooas, the deiendant Van Riswr ing the purchaser.

Wallach’s interest in the property ‘was, therefore, equity of redemption, and by th confiscation sale purel and held it with the security of the deed of trust.given to protect the payment of the promissory note.
