A motion to make the answer more definite and stmke out certain portions of it was yesterday de- nied vy Judge Donohue. Betore Judge Dononue, in Supreme Court, Cham- bers, there Was argued yesterday a motion made in the sui of Remington vs. Wester to open a $2,500 delault on « policy of msurance. Plaintiff and de- tendant were partners, and a policy of insurance be- longing to pininti’ was placed in the safe, The “deiendant allerea the combination of the sate and did wotintorm the plaintiffof the uiteration, The part- nership Was dissolved and the policy disposed of under a power of attorney from the piainutl. On the argu- ment there Was sume dispute as to Whether the power oi attorney had becn revoked, After the argument the Court sook the papers, reserving decision. Messrs, Devhn and Miller, counsel for Joby L, Brown, the jate city contractor, got a verdict in bis favor tor $140,000 in the Court of Appeals, Other counsel went to work, as claimed, and compromised this claim for $50,000, The orginal counsel are still obliged, in consequence, to contest the question of their ees, they claiming that no money should be paid by the city to Mr, Brown’s executors on account of | such compromised judgment, tor the payment ol their | fees, be case was argued at length yesterday betore | the Supreme Court, General Term, Messrs, Sullivan, Koppe and Fowler appearing for the city, and Mr. The Court drawo out by George Miller, an order of ar. | Henry H.

The question, being 4 novel and interesting one, was argued at considerable length, after which the Court took the papers, reserving decision, LESSON FOR BANK DIRECTORS. When the Manufacturers and Builders’ Bank in- croased its capital stock Mr. John Sexton, one of tho directors, was induced, us he claims, by the President | of the bank to give his note for $5,000 for additional stock, with the understanding that he would never be ealied upon to pay. the note, the object being simply to show on the books that all the additional stock bad been taken. ‘This note was renewed trom time to time, and before becoming due after its last renewal the bank failed. Mr. William A. Batler, receiver of the bank, sought to recover payment of the note, Mr. Soxton paid $1,800 ou the note, but alleging that he id so without advice of counsel and not knowing bis rights in the premises, the note having been given, as Dank having brought suit | | | | | | | he claim thous cousideration, Mr, Buller Drought sult to recover the balance due ‘and obtained a judgment against Mr. Sexton. After ovtaining such Judgment, Mr. Sexton paid $1,000, and, ‘as stated by Mr. Butler, agree to pay the balance in | sixty days after execution. The sixty days having ex- pired and the amount claimed not baving been paid, execution was issued. A stay of execution was then obtained, and meantime application was made to Judge Donohue for permission to put in an answer, Iu sup ort of this application a lovg aflidavit was submitted yy Mr. Sexton setting forth the circutmstances under which he gave the note in question and bis payments of the money referred, to, and further averring that he jost $9,000 in other stock he owned through the | tuilure of she bank, and that there was no justifiable seuson for saddling him with apy additional loss, Un he other hand affidavits were produced showing that yo had been paid aividends on $5,000 worth of stock | ansterred to his name on bis giving his note for this amount of additional stock. In his decision given yes- terday, Judge Donohue denies the application for leave to put in an answer, holding thatafler the judgment and execution, the Court cannot grant such permission, CHANGE OF HOSTELRY. Hollis L. Powers,’ proprietor of the Grand Central Hotel, brought a suit in the Superior Court against Lawrence A. Curry to recover the sutn of $25,000 dam- ages for alleged false imprisonment. !n April, 1874, the defendant, who was adeputy sheriff and attached to the Order of Arrest Department, proceeded to the Grand Central Hotel to execute an order of arrest issued out of the Marine Court at the suit of one Ellis Eling against Mr. Powers. It is alleged on the part of Mr. Powers that instead of giving bai! he tendered to Curry the sum of $450 in lieu thereof, as provided by law, but Curry refused to take the same and took him to Ludiow Street Jail, where, afier being incarcerated tor a number of hours, he was reieased by Mr. Joel Ste- yens, the then Under Sheriff On the part of the de- fendant {t 18 claimed that be bad no authority to receive the money and offered to take Powers to Mr, Judson Jarvis, who had the authority to receive the money, but that he refused to go, ana that thereupon he was obliged to take him to jail after making all possible efforts to find Mr. Jarvis, The case came up dolore Judge Speir, holding Superior Court, Cham- bers, on au application made by Mr. Henry ©. Deni- son, counsel jor Curry, to dismiss the action tor want of prosecution, it being claimed that the plaintiff has ubreasonably neglected to prosecute the suit. An order was made by Judge Speir directing the cause to be placed upon the day calendar for trial for Wednes- day next. Agreat many novel questions will arise upon the trial as to the duties and lability of deputy sherifls. Tho plaintiff is represented by Mr. Charles §. Spencer and the detendant, as already stated, by Mr. Denison, ‘The trial will’ doubtless be a ieugtby | one, i LOSS OF THE HARVEST QUI It will be remembered that on Christmas Day, 1 the ship Harvest Queen, bound for Australia, was Jost in the Irish Channel, caused, it was alleged, by | the steamship Adriatic, of the Waite Star line, collid- | we with ber.

COMMITTED TO AWAIT THE ACTION OF THE GRAND JURY-~TESTIMONY, GRAVB AND GAY, OF THE PERSONS ROBRED, The five members of the gang of Astoria masked burglars, arresied on Wednesday night by Captain Murray, of the Fourth precinct, assisted by Detective ! Carr, were examined yesterday by District attorney Downing, of Queens county, before Police Justice Par- cells, at Astoria, and, alter careful investigation, were committed, without bail, to await the action of the Grand Jury. ¢ Although the examination was set down for twelvo o'clock and the New York officers and the Astoria officials were on hand at that time, the hearing was delayed for several hours on account of the absence of District Attorney Benjamin W. Downing, of Queens county, who wast to conduct the proceedings. Atthree o'clock a telegram was received from him stating that be was unable to cross over from New York on agcount of the ice in the river, but would take the next boat, ARRAIGNMENT OF THE PRISONERS. Half an hour later he arrived and the prisoners were brought up from the cells and seated within the railing. “James Reily, Jeremiah McCarthy, John Schmidt and John James,” said the District Attorney, “you and each of you are accused jointly with having burglari- ously entered the house of Willam H, Green in As- toria, in this county, with intent to rob and steal and with having robbed and stolen, James Reily, what do you say to that charge, guilty or not guilty ?”? The re- sponse was a very feevie “Guilty,” and the eyes of the otner four were Oxed ine vindictive manner upon the speaker. They all pleaded “Not guilty ;?? Schinidt, the German, adding sullenty, ‘+l know nudding about st,” Captain Murray was sworn, and, in response to the questions of the District Attorney, told the story of the search and capture substantially as detailed in the HekaLp yorterd: ‘The prisouers not being represented by counsel were invited to ask wil- ness such questions as they chose, und Schmidt availed himaelt frecty of the privilege, and made a_ number of little speeches declarative of his innocence. When Captain Mucray produced the gold pencil case which formed the first link cotnecting the prisoners with the robbery, and stated that he had procured it from one tu whom it was given by James, the latter assumed a surprised air and demanded to known what proof there was that he bad ever had the trinket. Hubert Carr, detective of the Fourth precinct, cor- roborated the testimony of the Captain,, He had never seen either McCarthy or Reily until he arrested them; the others he knew. Mr, Carr was very’ ill, but, notwithstanding, remained — in the court room ready to give whatever information ‘The knives identified by Mr, Hillier were, he said, taken from the pockets of Reilly by an offlcer while Witness held a pistol to the thie(’s head, The civar holder laentitied by the same gentleman Mr, Carr took from the pocket of McCarthy, together with a skeleton key. When these statements were made McCarthy, who is cross-eyed and — evidently very weak minded, voluutecred the explanation that the key in question “opened bis back door,” and that h had borrowed the bolder from Reily to smoke a ct with, Considering the longth of time the prisoners had to think over their case, those explanations were considered by the officers to display great poverty of juvention ou the part of McCarthy, SCUMIDT'S PROTEST, Schmidt asked Mr, Carr whether he knew anything evil of him, and, being answered in the negative, be- came emboldened, and proceeded to declaim, “Why pee ge be kept chained up like a wild apimal?’? “DN tell you why pretty soon,” said tho District Attorney.” ‘We can’t prove everything at once,”? Schmidt's only reply to this was a grunt and asuddon loss of effrontery. Mr, William H, Green testified that he had lived in Astoria for many years; onthe night of December 22 he was at nome with his wile und child and his wile’s sister; in the other part of the house, occupied by bis brother, there were himself, wife and child and three brothersin-law, named respectively Alfred, Wiliam | and Mortimer Willis, a sister-in-law, Nelle Willis, and | other persons; about one o’clock bis wile woke him up and suid there was somo one in the house; hg saw four men entering his bedroom; he inid bis band on his revolver, and one of the men said, “You have a revoiver in this room and I want it; the cartridges that fit it are in your barroom,” District Attorney—Do you sce that man present, | Mr. Green? [1 so, point him out Witness—(Vointing at Schmidt)—Yes, sir; I should judge that was the man. Schmidt—(Wazging his head)—‘Oh, dat won't do, Georgie. (Laughter.) Dat’s only your jadgen’ on it”? District Attorney—“Ob! well, we'll prove tt to you more precisely by and by, Schmidt; don’t bo in a urry.?? Witness then continued—The man then said he had heard there was $500 in gold in the house and de- manded 1t; I gave him the pistol and told him if he would spate our lives I would give him all we had; then he ransacked the drawers and came back to the bed; all this me thero were four men in the room; ‘The'man whom I belfeve to be Schinidt asked whether [ had any rings ov my hands; L showed him { had nov; then he asked to see my wife’s hands; she had two nd he was about to pull them’off when she | cried, ‘For God’s sake don’t take my wedding ring ;”” the thieves then leit the rings and be; to turn over the bedclothes, saying we had mouey there, and finally insisted upon our getting out of bed so that they might search it, FOUR GENTLEMEN ROBBING A MOUSE, I knocked at the door of my sister-in-law’s room and said, ‘Don’t be irigutened Sarah, but tie still, here are four gentiemen going to rob the house;’’ the Uneves carried off the revolver, a quantity of clothing aud other articles, including gold pencil belonging to my wife. Here the District Attorney showed witnesss the pencil case which furaished the clew in the caso, and be idenified t the one stolen from his bouse “While the four men were in the room,” be said, “there was a filth standing outside the dour;” akeroseno lamp, he added, was burning, so that I could have dis- tinguished their features if (hey had not been masked; they carfied with them a lamp which they took from the barroom on the first floor; my wile saw all five of them; i identify Ubree of them’ here now; they are Keily, James and Schmidt; several of them pointe pistols at me; all currizd pistols but one, who was arined with my carving knife. Witnessswore that the man whom he took for dames carried a pisiol similar to that tuken from ames. “L tink you svare for $5 filly oats,” broke in Schmidt, adding some uncomplimentary remarks about the mother of witness, Witness said be showed the burglars to the front door and they bid him good might; next morning he found the robbers’ tracks in the snow; there was one Mrs, Green corroborated the testimony of her hu: bund, and identified the pencil case a8 her property | ana a black vetl picked up in the thieves’ boat as part ol (he property stolen irom her house, She identitied Jolin James and Reily as two of the burglars, and thought Schmidt was another, as she knew bis voice aod bad seen him standing by her bedside with a por- Jace.

The balance were business and other letters, which cause more inconvenience by a non-de- livery than actual damage, although a number of the businoss Jotters were orders for goods and merchan- dise, In order that the parties who forwarded checks ana notes through the robbed mail to their correspon- dents may obtain a clew to their property a list of the game will be found below, giving the names of the urawer, the payee, date of tho same aud amount on the face of the document.

Tarrytown, Jan, 5, 1877, To tur Epitox or Tae Heraro:— Ip your issue of the Sth inst, in an article concern- ing the mail robberies, the name of ‘Tom O?Mara” is mentioned as one of the thieves’ companions, This is anerror, The fact of the name being classed with thoge of the thieves was due, i think, to some in- ventive mind hereabouts, who purposely misled your reporter, I never was associated with any of the men mentioned in the article in any transaction that could uot be termed honorable, and I court # careful inquiry into this charge, or any other, feeling indisposed to be freighted with accusations wholly unfounded, You will do me the justice to make the correction, THOMAS F, O'MARA. SINGULAR SUICIDE. FREDERICK W. MARTENS, BROKER, FOUND DEAD IN HIS OFFICE, SHOT THROUGH TEE HEART. Quite a futtor of excitement was occasioned in the vicinity of the Stock Exchange yesterday morning by the announcement that a broker named Frederick W. Martens had committed suicide at his office, No, 68 Exchange place. : A visit to the office in which Martens committed the rash act failed to elicit any information, Al) inquirers were met at the door by a gentleman who refused ad mittance, and referred all callers to the police as the custodians of the particulars, At the station house tho Sergeant made the following statement to a HekaLp reporter:— THR POLICR RECORD OF THR SUICIDE. About twenty five minues often A. M. Maxwell A. Plaat came to the station house and stated that on opening the door of his office, at No. 68 Exchange place, he tound his uncle, Mr. Frederick W, Martens, dead inachair. Beside him on the floor was a singlo-bar- relied pistol, the bullet from which had pierced his rizht lung. ‘The unfortunate mau had evidently beon dead tor some time, and as he had not gono to his home im Brookiya on the previeus night itis sup- posed that he shot himself during the evening or very early in the morning. Mr, Martens was in comfortable circumstances and his relatives are at a loss to account for strange death, Many who knew the dead broker say he was a man of very eccentric mind and at times very irrita- bie. A story, lacking contirmation, however, was yesterday in circulation that he bad told certain mein- bere of his family that some morning be would be found doad, Tho suicide was sixty years of age and had been in busicess in New York for a quarter of a century, always commanding the confidence of those with whom he had dealings. The Coroner visited the office, No. 58 Exchango place, yesterday afternoon, and after an inquest the jury found a verdict v that Martens had commit- ted suicide, Tho body was subsequently removed to No, 298 East Baltic street, Brooklyn, from whence tho funeral will take place on Sunday, WAS IT A SUICIDE? Charles W. Solomon and his brother Rapbael, resid- ing at No. 210 West Fortieth street, retired together to their room on Thursday evening. The brothers were in good humor, and, alter a quiet conversation retired to their separate beds. At half-past seven o'clock yesterday morning Charles was aroused from his sloep by tho report ofa pistol inthe room, At first he thought of burglars and sprang from his bed, but on hearing a moan from his brother's bed he ran to it and was horrified to see a small stream of blood flowing from a wound in bis broth: ide, A | small double barrelled pistol was lying near the body. | Charles at once alarmed the house. He then ran for a | physician, and on bis return ascertained that bis brother was dead, Coroner Ellinger was promptly notified and took charge of the case. He gave a permit | for the burial of the body, and an inquest will be held to-day or to-morrow. Charles W. Solomon, the brother, informed a HxeraLp reporter last evening that tbe was no apparent cause for suicide, as he of a strictly moral character and of good habits. The deceased was engaged in the jewelry busi: ness and generally carried home with hin large amount of stock, he being afraid to leave it at the store, and always slept with a pistol under his jllow. Mr. Solomon also said that he believed that is brother had accidentally shot himself; that on awakening in the morning be took the pistol from under his pillow, and, while examining 11, it went off, with a fatal result, The deceased was about twenty- seven years of age, single, and was much esteemed by his numerous friends. A STRANGER'S DEATH. Two days ago Pietro Locatelli, aged forty-two years, and Tompio Mazzocehi, of {taly, arrived here from Japan, with the intention of taking passage on one of the transatlantic steamers which leaves for Havro to- day. They bad brought with them a quantity of silk worms’ oggs, which they intended to take with them to Italy. The men had separate rooms at the Hotel do Roma, in Kast Houston street, and both retired on Thursday night seemingly in good, health and spirits, Mazzoceht arose at the usual hour festerday, but Loca- telli overslept himself, the people thought at first. Later they becamo alarmed at the latter’s absence and called jn an officer, who burst open the door ond dis- covered Locatelli stretched on the floor beside his bed stone dead. Coroner Woltman was notifiel, He viewed the body and took charge of the deceased’s offdets, It appears that the deceased was the son of one of the wealthiest merchants in Lombardy, Tne post-mortem revealed that be dicd of rupture of an aneurism of the arch of the aort ‘THE CAPLURED SPANISH STEAMERS. Tho report published in the Henan a couple of days ago 18 now confirmed respecting the capture by Cuban political prisoners of the Spanish steamship Nuevo | Cubano, while on her voyage from the Isle of Pines to Batabano, on the south const of Havana, — [1 appears that the prisoners became possessed of the vessel, headed her toward’ a part of the island where the | patriots were 1p force, and safely effected a landing, The Nuevo Cabano was subsequently found wrecked abandoned on the coast of Cuba by a Spanish man- of-war. 1d Vessel was built about a dozen years ago for the Southern Navigation Company of Cuba, at the Fulton Iron Works, in this city. The President of the company, Sefior José Olano, is a stepson of Manuel Calvo, the great Cuban slave importer, She was built other ports in the Vuelto Abajo district, m company with the Espana, Leraund! and other vessels of livbt draft, She 1 said to resemble greatly in appearance the sidewhec! steam vesse! D. R. Marin, of th's port. The capturere of the Nuevo Cabano are believed nearly ali to have boen political prisoners Who were en roule to work as laborers, with several hundred members of the Havana chain gaug, on the trocha, im the Central partment, [tis beheved that the captain, officers and crew of the vesse! have either been killed or taken as prisoners into Cuba Libre, ‘THER EPIPHANY. The feast of the Epiphany will be celebrated to day by the Episcopal and Catholic churches with appro. priate coremonies, It isthe feast of tho manifestas tion of Christ to the Gentiles, From the time of the Council of Nice (525) this day was set apart through. It was also the custom there, at midnight on the feast of the Epiphany, to fetch water irom the springs, whieh was believed to keop fresh and pure the whole eusuing year, Su Epiphanius says this was done in memory of the water chanved into wino at Cava, was on the Epiphany, tn fine, that patriarchs and met ropolitans yearly published the ‘pascbal letters,’’ an- nouncing the precise timo for the celebration of Kaster aud Pentecost, Several of them are extant, BOND STREET SAVINGS BANK. ‘The Receiver of tho Bond Street Savings Bank, Mr. Willis 8, Paine, bas paid to date, from and including December 40 lust, all depositors who bave presented themselves a dividend of fifty-five per cent, Five bundred thoustnd doWars of this dividend 1s still in the | bands of the receiver, MARRIAGES AND DEATIS, "MARRIED.
