WESTERN UNION DIVIDEND. Instead of the anticipated long drawn out argume yesterday in the injuuction proceedings tustituted by S. A. Dowley, in the Supreme Court, to prevent the Western Union Telegraph Company from paying ite dividend announced to be paid to-day, and a probable of such payment, the matier was for the purpose of porchasing oF ad n | brought to a speedy determination by Judge West- Merits of the Controversy a Subject of | Future Argument. pe BS Bees Some time in the fall of 1868, the old Amorican Ex- press Company became consolidated with or merged into the American Mercvants’ Union Express Com- | pany, and at the time of such consolidation, exclusive | of property of the American Express Company ferred to the American Merchants’ Union Express | Company, a transfer of all the property, assets and | accumulations of the former was made to James C. Fargo as trustee, upon a trast to convert the same into money, and after puying the debts and Htabitities of the | American Express Company up to the Ist of December, 1868, to divide and distribute the remainder of such money among the shareholders of the company, in proportion to the number of shares held by them re- spectively, as they sbould appear on the books of the company on the 30th of November, 1868, Upon aceept- ing the trust, Mr, Fargo issued certificates of trust therefor to the shareholders of the company im equal numer to the shares held by them respectively, the holders surrendering their stock to the American E, press Company and receiving therefor, in addition to the certificates of trust, five shares of stock in the American Merchants’ Union Express Company, of the | par value of $100 each, tor every share of stock held by in the American Express Company, the last named company becoming thereby merged in the Mer- chants’ Union Company and ceasing to exist ay a com- pany, Out of the moneys realized from the trust Mr. Fargo, on the 15th of June, 1870, declared a dividend | of five per cent, or $25 on each share, to the holders of | the certificates, Again, on the 16h of June, 157: sevcmd dividend was declared by him of six per cent, or $:@ per sbare, With the exception of holders ot 696 shares these dividends were accepted by all the holders of the 18,000 certificates issued and the certiticates themselves surrendered, ‘These holders of the 696 shares disputed the accounts of the trustee in a suit brought for that purpose, and it was referred to ex- | Judge Henry E, Davies to take testimony in relation | to and pass such accounts, ‘the matter has been for yome time pending before the referee, by whom a large Amount of testimony has been taken, and who has now | rendered and filed his report, In this report, in uddi- | tion to the preceding facts, he finds that the whole Amount for which the receiver is to be held to account | is $1,259,825 4. OF this sum he is credited with | authorized payments, including $10,000 lor Lis own , to the extent of $1 them trost the Americ un ment to Mr, Furgo as truste rvod therefrom cer- tain enumerated properties and cash, amounting to 40,000, Which in said agreement it was declared to the American Merchants? and all of which bad been psierred, except $50; ) in eash, in hea of which the Merchants’ Company subsequently agreed to | luke and did jake stock to the same amount of (he Viuladeiphia and Erie Ratiroad, the National Express Company and the Albany and Susquebanna Railroad, This stock of the N press Company, number 1,204 share the American Express Company at the time of the nm of the trust, and was purchased by it on the izth of October, 1865, at the price of six wud three-quarter per cent above par, and was taken at by the Merchants’ Company to make up the balance in cash. twas claimed by the Cootestants that the defendant, as trustee, should be charged with the cost price of this stock to the Ameri- can Express Company upon the ground that he, being interested in th rican Mercuants’ Union Express Company py himself as trustee to himself perefore the cesiuis que trust have le, and to hold y sold and had been d that t ct the trustee jor t charge bim with the ditier y such value and | the price received by him t or that the cestuis que trust mght repudiate the sale and compel the tancellation thereof, and require the trustee to re place in the trast estate the property so sold. ‘he American Express Company not being a party to the pre ng, (he cestwis que trust inust elect to contirm the sale und charge the trustee with the ditfer- ence in value, itany. On this point the reteree holds that (he trustee reserved the full value of the 1,204 Shares of the stock of the National Express Company At the time it was tukeu by the American Merchants’ Union Express Compa: The contestants also claimed that upon the {inal sale and trauster made by the trustee of the residuum of the assets ia his hangs as trustee in Mar h, in 1878, he did not receive the fuil value of 5,200 shares of the American Express Company's stook then heid and owned by him as part of assets of the saia company. On this point the | referee 1s satisfied beyond ail reasonable doubt that the full market value, if not more, was received by trosiee for this stock, and that if the assets, stucks, bonds and residuum of said trust estate had been sold At anction by the trustee they would not have brought anything hike the sui realized by the trustee upon (ie sale thereof by him, and that nothing appears to im- ach the good faith of the trustee in the transaction. t was also strenuously contended on the part of the coniestants that tne trustee was to be chargeable with ,970 which he received irom his brother ‘This claim was made on the state -On the 2d of April, 1869, | ho resides at Buffalo, in this | the brother of =the fendant, borrowed of the American Merchants’ Uni Express Company the sum of $61,080, payable on de- mand, With interest, and transferred 4s collateral 100 Winona and St Peter Railroad Company's bonds, of the par value of $1,000 each, On the 25th of April, 1869, the defendant, as trustee, assumed the loan, and paid to the Atnerican Merchauts’ Union Express Vom- pany the amount thereo:, recetving the collaterals pledged therefor, On the 11th of Jane, 1869, the tras tee joaned to William G.

G. I’. Lowrey and William A. Beach, In opening the case Mr. Lowrey read two affidavits, one ot Ehakim L. Bowles and the other of Wilham Orton, Presivent of the Western Union Telegraph Company, The former states that, shortly after the closing of the transter books of the company in June last, he met Mr. Dowley at the Uniou League Club, when the latter offered to bet bim that the stuck ol the company would seil at sixty-five betore it sold at seventy-two, and that on his refusing to take the bet Mr, Dowley told him be had no interest in the com- pa Mr, Orton states in his affidavit that at e meet- ing of the Board of Directors, held on the 20th of last June, it was resolved to pay on the 16th of July adivi- dend of $506,720; that kuch dividend was to be patd from the profits of the company, that if such dividend wus not paid it would cause serious inconvenience to many of the stockholders and wouid involve the com- pany in serious diMiculties, and that it would create cobiusion in the stock market and depreciate the value of the stock, of which the company owned over 000,000, Mr. Low then went on to stat thatthe order of reference provided tbat tho referce should submit the testimony taken betore bim betore the Court to-day, and on such testimony he asked that the injunction be dissolved. ‘Judge Westbrook said that he had granted an order on the application of Me, Case, which, perhaps, might aifect the present motion. Mr. Redfeld stated that the Qird bad flown and could not be found in bis usual nadnts, and the papers im consequence not having been served the order Way in- operative, Mr. Lowrey reviewed the action neretotore taken in the case betore Jugge Donohue. As to the reference, which was set down tor eleven o'clock, they were even o'clock if necessary. Ail their with ce. A more dilatory exami- nation he never Witnessed, most of the questions being irrelevant. Jt remained forthe Court to determine | whether the examination was properly ended; as to the present case he felt anxious to have it concluded as spovdily as possible. There were certain scandals connected with the case, Persons holding responsible positions in the company had been charged with falsify- lug statements, Judge Westbrook said he should require time to examine the testimony before the referee, and he At it best to postpone the present motion till next Mouday to give bim such opportuntt: Me. Guiteau defended the dilatoriness of the ex- amination before the referee, Most of the time, he said, was occupied by the opposing counsel in objecting to their questions, Lu regard to the present matter he | contended that 1t was not proper ty delay initiating the proceedings tll so tate a time. In this motion the point urged in the moving papers was that the plainti? im the original proceedings had guilty of an illegal act, It was, he iusisted, o ein Ww o security could be tal Judge Westbrook sald that this question bad been decided in :he Court of Appeals in a case in which he ed 98 counsel. The plaintiff claimed that the J because the money had not been earned, and the defendant insisted that the act was legal because the money bad been earned. Mr. Guiteau said that the amount of dividend pro- posed to be paid was $506,720, and the bond should be double this sum, Mr. Beach suggested that if without hearing them, under the order of Judge Donohue, the course urg on the other side was taken, great injustice would be done to the company. He asked that a hearing might be had on vhis order on next Monday, to see if the in- Junetion should be contioued and tegal ground existed for its continuance. The referee, under Judge Dono- hue’s order, thought he bad no power to curb the range of the examination. He hoped that, under the circumstances, some instructions should be given to the referee, As the case stood there was a serious im- putation upon the telegraph company as to the management of its affairs. Juage Westbrook said that both sides bad rights in the bh the Court must regurd. “Betore ssary to de- points, as, for instance, the nto the referee. As the case stocd be saw no reason why the injunction should be continued. It would be a great disap. ountment to the stockholaers not to be paid the dividend, and with a bend being given for damages he saw no objection to the payment, The injunction would, theretore, be so modified as to permit the payment of the dividend. Mr. Lowrey satd they hada bond all ready and passea the same up to Judge Westbrook for his ap- proval, who approved it, the sureties being accepted by the opposing counsel. He added that be did not seo now the alieged damages could exceed the amount of the bond. After some further discussion the hearing in ti range to be § | Dowicy cuse, on the order of Judge Donobue, was postponed till two P. M, next Tuesday, and the order modifying the injunction duly entered, Mr. Redfield asked that the return in the suit of Mr. Case be adjourned to the same hour, which was granted, ntime the examination belore the referee in the Dowiey suit was directed to be stayed till the hearing on next Tuesday, The bund given in the Dowiey case tor $35,000, being twice tho interest of Mr. Dowley, areties in the bong wore Messrs, Oliver H.

PROTEST OF THE COMMITTER ON AGITATION APPOINTED BY THE COOPER INSTITUTE MASS MEETING. The following letter is a copy of one that has been prepared by the Commitice on Agitation appointed by the indignant e»ponents of the Excise law enforce- ment: To the Hon. Wins of New York :— Drax Sin—The undersigned, on behalf of the Com- mittee on Agitation appoiuted ‘by the mass meeting of citizens recently heid at the Cooper Institute tor the purpose of protesting against the despotic and arbi- trary enforeement of the Sunday laws by the police au- thorities, respectiully represent as tollows:—When, after a vigorous and earnest popular agitation of sev- eral years’ duration, the Metropolitan Excise law of 1866 was superseded by the statute of 1870, it was gen erally supposed that & compromise had been effected, under which the public peace and order could be ou: forced on Sunday without an obnoxious invasion of pri- vate rights and an oppressive curtailment of popular Hberty. The police authorities of this city were, by the passage of that act, deprived of a good deal of power which had previously been exerctsed in an arbitrary way und the exercise of which had made the Metropoli- tan Excise law odious in the eyes of the people, and the words ‘ule and beer,” which had been in the Sun- day Ctause of the Metropolitan Excise law, were omit- ted from the Sunday clause of the new act. These and other concessions that could be pointed out were made in deference to the views of men who bad argued and shown beiore the Legislature that it had become the poticy of every enlightened government to wean its people trom tts habitual use of strong and intoxicating liquors by encouraging tha substitution ef a mild and nutritious beverage—namely, beer; and that by the pursnit of this policy, in conjunction with the gradual @ducation of the masses, the cause of true temperance could be more eflectuaily promoted than by the pas- sage of sumpiuary enactments, which only arouse popular opposition. During the first five years of its 70 was enforced i tho spirit which had led to its enactment, and public peace and was maintained under it without subjecting citi- to unnecessary hardships. But the present Commissioners of Police, who were appointed by you, did not remain contented with this general resuli. Blinded by a newly born official zeal, they suddenly set to work not only to eniorce the very letter of the statute, but to stretch their powe utmost possible exte » even more, lieged violations of the tute as construed by them tn violation of decisions made by the courts on former similar occasions, for the purpose of being enabled to cnforce it rigorously. Arrests and jncar- cerations of citizens of undoubted respectability and wealth took piace for the sole purpose of securing their attendance berore a committing magistrate, Many of these arrests were not only mado in a clearly Vindictive and persecuting spirit, but were held by the courts to have been made without apy Justification whatever. svlute monarch of Europe would have dared to cause them to be made iu the same cruel dunjusiiiable manner, 1t was a monstrous perver- sion of power, for the power to arrest criminal oflend- ers likely to escape without warrant was by the law never tutended to be exercised upon respectable citt- zens who are atall times ready and willing to appear on simple notice, Finding their course in this respect condemned, not oply by their victims, but by the mass of the honest tizens of this great city, the police authorities de- ved from A general enforcement of ihe roupoa altempied a sort of disérim! nt ior the sake of keeping up appearances im cer. quarters. But their discrimination is now directed ed by the poorer classes and principally beer is soid, and in favor of tue places (requented by the wexltuy men or controlled by persons of political influence, where choice wines und liquors can be obtained m any quanuty, One illustration to this effect will suffice, For the last two Sundays not only beer, but the ehuio- exst wines and liquors wer aad in the presence of the police, sold while atthe At a highly respect- able place Un rt of the poorer classes, was Virtuajly taken possession of by a large number of policemen, who were stationed Itiside of said premises by the orders of thetr superiors, (or the purpose of im slauily suppressing any attempt that might be made to fell lager beer and = who) seven went to far as to snatch glaskes from the ips of guests ior the purpose of ascertaining the kind of beverages con- tained therein.

The match at pigeon shooting between Captain Bo- gardus, of E’khart, Tl, the champion of the United States, and Dr. Talbot, of New York, brought a large number of people to Deerfoot Park yesterday. The mateh was for $250 a side, to shoot at fifty birds each, thirty yards rise, eighty yards boundary, and each con- testant to use the second barrel if necessary. The usual preliminaries of measuring the ground and choosing a referee—which latter resulted in the selec- tion of Mr. Charles Wingate, of the Long Island Shoot. ing Club—baving been concluded, the shooting com- menced by Bogardus loading off’ and killing his first bird, which had to be chased out of the long grass sur- rounding the traps. Neither the weather nor the ground was favorable to pigeon shooting. The air was heavy, and, although the birds were more than dverage good, they did not rise | well, and many of them skimmed along through the tall grass, making is very dificult for the shooters to bring them dowa. The frst miss made was by Dr. Talbot at his flith bird, a low tying hard driver. Talbot also missed his eighth and tenth, the last being bit with the second barrel, but it got away. Bogardus killed eleven straight, fairly missed his twelfth and lost hin thirteenth, which, although well hit, escaped. Talbot knocked down his next three birds in good style, yet his fourteenth escaped with a full charge in his Iv. His fifteenth bird was a fast driver, well killed with the first barrel, Rogardus then knocked over five straight, but lost his nineteentn by shooting under him, fe killed his twentieth bird, while Talbot had successfully brought to grass each bird that was ‘After scoring 20 each Bogardus was one bird ahead, Talbot having killed 16 and Bogardus 17. Retting was now treely indulged in, the odds being very slightly in tavor of Bogardus, The seore, after shooting 25 birds, stood—Talhot (killea), 18; Bogardua, 20, when the contestanta took a few minates’ rest and cleated their guns. On resuming, Bogardus killed thirteen in succession. Talbot lost his twenty-ninth bird, which fell dead out of bounds. He then kilied nineteen straight, during which me Bogardus missed two, leaving the score at the forty-seventh bird only one in favor of Bogardus, who killed his last three birds in goou style, each of which wasa driver Talbot lost his forty-ninth, which escaped, though hit by both barrels. There was now no hope of Talbot winning, yet be shot at and killed his fiftieth bird in good style, leaving Bogardus the winner of the mateh by two birds. only, after an exhibition of shooting that has seldom, it ever, been equalied. Bogardus holds the champion mesial won by him on a score of thirty-aine killed out of fifty, His shooting Yesterday Improved that score by four birds.

Stokes from Sing Sing to Auburn Prison in a draft of ifty men, on Tuursday evening bas occasioned considerable surprise, pot only among the residents of Sing Sing village and vicinity, bat «iso im the prison itself. In the latter place it was universally thought, by the subordinate officials as well as-by the 1,00 inmates, that Stokes, the “walking gentleman” of the institution, who had been indulged beyoud precedent ever since the day of his arrival there, would never be thwarted to the extent of being selected for shipment to the cheerless surroundings Auburn; por did the fear of such an adverse fate ever enter the imagination of the slayer of Fisk. It appears that nearly all the other felons whohad been drafted were kept locked up on a separ- rate galleyr during the day, while Stokes,§doubtiess feeling secure im his tenure of easy times, sauntered through the prison grounds. During the afternoon, however, he was called into the office of the principal Keeper, and ere a word of explanation could be asked or vouchsaled, his foot was put down and the shackies | fastened on him. In a short tine afterward be was securely linked to a notorous jailbird, known in the prison as “Jimmy, the Kid,” and placed in the gang of fifty on board the cara. Among the number was Fuchs, who butchered Simmons, in Brooklyn. In conversation with Warden Youngs yesterday a Heratp reporter ascertained that the State Prison 10- spectors decided two weeks ago that Stokes should be sent away in the next draft which took place, About the cause of h‘s beng transferred the Warden said he knew but little; although, be said, it might have been brought about by public dissatisfaction with the privi- loges granted to Stokes and which were denied to the other convicts. He imagined that the inspectors had grown ured of beiug accnsed of favoritism in bis case, and concluded to tran: bim. Among outsiders, however, another and less creditable reason 1s binted at. 8 cortainly strange that this man, who has only about eight weeks more to ‘serve, should be summarily sent to Auburn at the expense of the State, especially as all agreo that his conduct in the prison bas been uniformily good. When it 18 considered that Stokes, upto a few weeks since, was permitted to leave the prison every night and re- turn to the hospital at any hour he chose, in addition to the privilege of providing bis own table, aud in other ways enjoying himself to the full bent of bis in- clinations, the action of the inspectors in transfering hitn at this late date to Auburn appears incomprehen- ribie. Itis suid that when he became aware of the fact of his having been drafted he was utterly amazed and could only suy that he believed ‘she Governor was ‘at the bottom of 1t.’” When the train bearing the fifty convicts was ap- proneiog Utica this morning, one of them, named homas Edgerly, having in some manner removed his shackles, jumped through the car window while the train was going ata speed of thirty miles an hour, and was instantly killed. Deceased had been sentenced from Kings county to fifteen years’ imprisonment for burglary. THE NAVAL STORES TRADE.

THE BOARD OF EXCISE. Application was made yesterday by William H. Mundy, of this city, to Justice Wandell at the Tombs Police Court for the arrest of the Board of Excise tor a violation of duty in granting licenses to L.
