8 THE COURTS. Important Decisions by the Supreme Court, General Term. NEILL DOGHERTY’'S WILL General Sickles Taking a Flyer in West- ern Railroad Stock, UNRELIABILITY OF EXPERTS. ‘Tho Supreme Court General Term Judges yestorday— Chief Justice Davis and Judges Brady and Daniels on the bench—handed down a Jarge batch of decisions, mainly of cases argued at the January term of tho Court, There is given below epitomes of the more im- portant opinions. Leading off the cuses—at least in the length of the | opinion given, which covers over seventy pages of | closely written foolscap—is the one ip the proceedings brought to disbar William H. Gale, The circumstances which brought Mr. Gale so conspicuously before the | Court in a proceeding of this necessarily paintul char- | acter have already been fully given in the Herat, As | will be remembered, ho was employed some two years by Alonzo Megarge to prose- cute a suit for divorce against Mary A. Megarge. No imputation was cast upon the conjugal | fidelity of Mrs, Megarge, but incompatibility of temper Jed to disagreement, and for this reason Mr. Megarge sought to have their marital relations dissolved. Mrs. Megarge’s story is that Gale induced her to go to tho Grand Union Hotel upon the representation that it was necessary for her to see a party thero in regard to the pending suit for divorce; that he detained her through- | out the evening in apartments, consisting of a parlor and bedroom, under pretence that he was momentarily | expecting the person in question; that her desires to | leave tho hotel were opposed, and, finally, that he | locked her in the room with himself and detained | her through the night against her remonstrance, he retiring to bed and she sitting upon the lounge in the outer room untii set at liberty in the morning. Upon evidence of criminal misconduct on her part, and proof that she remained there at | the hotel with a person other than Mr, Gale, a decreo of divorce was. granted against her, Judge Daniels writes the opinion of the Court, He re- | views at great lengih the testimony showing that on the night of the Sth of November, 1874, Mrs. Megarge | was at the hotel with some person who registered as | ago James H, Baldwin and wife, Pousbkeeps| Y. He | then discusses the question whether Mr. Gale was such | person or whether through deceiving her he made out | ascertainable, | the beq' Roman Catholle children in that parish, He further directed that the school shall be under the mapage- ment of twelve respectable farmers, who are to serve without pay and be appointed by the bishop. His final airection ip rd to the school is that the same shall be callea ‘Tbe Doberty American Institute,’ The nearest of kin of the testator, twosecond cousins aud a child of one of thew, contest the will. An | action was brought for the construction af the will in Kings county, In the Generai Term of that d ment there Was a disagreement as to the co: of the will, and the case was thereupon transferres the General Term of this department, where the cume up yesterday tor argument before Chief Justice Davis and Judges Brady and Daniels, Messrs. Jesse Johnson and Abraham Lott are counsel for Bishop McDevitt, who was the Roman Cutbolic bishop at | Raphoe atthe time the will was executed and 1s still the bishop there, Messra, 3 P. Nast appears for the executor, James J. Garvey, The argument in the case occuplea @ considerable portion of the day and was listened to witb great in- terest by the large number of lawyers and others pres- ent, It was claimed on behalf of Bishop McDevitt that will expresses a carefully considered scheme for founding and maintenance of a school tn Ireland for cation of poor children of the Roman Catnohie ud that the execution of the trust was devolved upon a bisbop of that Caurch, and that such bisbop, as such trustee, aided by the equity powers of the Court, all the quality of succession necessary to perpetuate the charity, Jt was further insisted that under the law of ireland Bishop McDevitt is competeut to take and administer the trust declared in the will; that alter his death the trust will devolve on the Court of Chancery, which willappointturther trustoes as trom ume to tithe may be unecessary, In reply to the argu- ment (hat the bishop cannot take because be can have nos sors, it Was insisted that it must be proven that be can have no successors, and especially when the nature and character of the office he holds is _con- sidered. ‘Tho Court takes judicial cognizance of the Christian religion. Of “its own kuowledgo tt ognizes the mea of the term “Roman atholic Bishop of Raphoe,” and that this title repre- sents a persou claiming title to his office through a succession of bishops. The Court must presume the Bishop of Rapboe will have successors certain and If the Court finds he can have no successors, yot, as the designated payce under the will, he ts entitied to take and execute the charity so long as he lives, leaving the question of subsequent equities to be determined when and where they arise. It will presume that the laws of freland are sufficient and proper for the adimipistrauion of this charity ; that 4 18 good under the laws of Ireland, and tbac there 1s no embarrassment in the case by apy of the old penal statutes against the Re in Catholic faith, such acts having happily all been repealed. It was contended im opposition, Mr. Chauncy, Shafler, Abel Crook, G. H, Badduu and Jobn 3, Harkin being among the opposing counsel, that the claim that the estate bas vested in the Bishop of Raphoe cannot be maintained; that the devise of real estate to an alien is void; that the bishop would pot have been capable of taking lands directly under Une will; that no such estate could be created through the instrumentality of a power in trast; that the scheme tails under the Irish law, and is void under the laws of the State of New York, The argument having finally been concluded, the Court took the papors, reserving decision. GENERAL SICKLES’ RAILROAD STOCK. In the suit brought by General Daniol E. Sickles, Benjamm F, Stevens, the oxecutors,of John Bower apd others, against Benjamin Richardson, John A. El- well, the Chicago, Saginaw and Canada Ratlroad Com- pany, Ashbel Green, William Bond and others, there | was a brief argument yesterday before Judge Law- ronce, in Supreme Court, Chambers, on a motion to continue the injunction recently granted by Judgo 3,574 bonds of the railroad company, that such bouds have been illegally issued. At the conclusion of the argument Judge Lawrence took the papers, reserving his decision, 4 fictitious case of guilt against her Upon careful sift. ing of the testimony he arrives at tho conclusion that | tue mory told by Mrs Megarge is the truth. Judge | Daniels concludes his opinion us follows:—The case has | been searched in vain for some circumstance thut | would justily such a degree of distrust ot the evi- | dence ‘tending to support the rge as would result ju the creation of so much doubt | as to render its dismissal proper on the ground ot fail- ure of proof. The serigus consequences that cannot | fuilto follow the conlirmation of the referee's report have induceda careful and critical investigation tor | that purpose. But, imstead of developing that result, the more. the evidence bus been considered the stronger the conviction has become of | sue respondent’s guilt, And upon that being found to be estublished, it has vot, as it could | nol, be denied that his misconduct bas been such as | to require that he should no longer remain in | the he compromised. He has deg himself’ to such an ex- | veut as to render it the duty his Court, under the | authority for that purpose ¢ upon it by the | Biatute of the State, to strike bis name from the list of its profes ott and annul tbe license totore issued to him. An order svould be ex ed firming the report of the releree and directing that the name of William H.

The motion to compel the plant? to file a vill of particulars is also denied. Upon this point Judge Davis says that there was an abundant answer to the motion in the statement that all the books o: the business and its mupagement Were unver the control and an the pose session of the defendants, and in short that the detwils sought to be set out to the bill of pare Licwiars were altogether in their bands, The Hebrew Bercvolent Orphan Asylum, assessed for building asewer on 5° th street, brought suit to | aide, claiming that there wa 1 upou the prop- erty, an clly within the de- cision ma Appeals in June last in the matier of the Avenue Metuouist Chure The Court holds, Judge Brady w ¢ opinion, that the case cited does not afl affirms the order appealed from, denying ® motion to Yacato the assessment, In the matter of the St. Joseph's Asylum, tn which au appeal was token trom fan order of the Court below, denying a motion to vu. cate the asse nt, the Court, Jadge Davis writing the opinion, aflirms (ue previous order, ‘The suit of the Christopher and Tenth Sreet Railroad itrai Crogs Town Railroad Com- up belore the Court on appeal trom an Speetal Tern, denying a movion to amend of the Court’ and the judgment entered The amendment was asked for on the grou ured the right of,ine ve t ct this case at all and therem. that the findings bad not de: fendant to lay the tracks of its road with sufficient o eral T definiteness.

D, An- drews against W. J, Ryun, and the point in- volved was tho value of buildings torn down on the After reciting the facts Judgo Van Brunt winds up bis opinion as follows:—I can- not dispose of this case without criticism upon some of the expert testimony offered upon the trial of this action, ‘Two ol the witnesses for the defendant swore that the lumber composing these buildings was worth 300, respectively, if taken away and as secoud nand, It sppeared from the evi dence in the case that the total cost both tor labor and | material for these buildings was but $2,200 In view of this circumstance | think it 1s appareut that these witnesses either wiltully testified falsely when they that they koew what the value was of those materials to be removed and sold tor secoud hand Jutnber, or they wilfully testitied falsely to the valua- The same eriticisin is equally apphcable tothe witness upon the | part of the plaimulf who swore that this lumoer was not worth $25, It would have undoubtedly brought more vban that if sold for firewcod, The inference seems necessary to follow that expert testimony 1s | never to be relied upon. NORTHAMPTON BANK ROBBERY. William Connors, the alleged Northampton Bank | robber, was brought again yesterday before Judge Brady, in the Court of Oyer and Terminer, upon habeas corpus As upon former occasions the court room was crowded with friends of the prisoner and persons’ who appeared to take considerable interest in the caso. Shortly after the Court opened the prisoner was brought in by the Sheriff and took a seat in front of the var by the side of his counsel, Messrs, Charles | W. Brooke and William F. Kintzing. There was present upon behalf of the bank Messrs, Clarence Seward, Before proceed- dozen witnesses that the prisoner was not a fugitive m the city of } consequently innocent of the crime charged him. This was objected to by Mr, Fellows, ¢ Brady refused to hear the testimony, hold- ing that this Was matter ol defence 1d be introduced upoa the trial, Mr, Brooke then proceeded to argue at great length a number of propositions of law, which, be contended, went to show that the proceedings against ‘the prisoner were — irreg- ular, tbat the warrant utd testimony were | imsuicieut and that the prisoner — should be discharged, Mr, Fellows followed on behalf of tue bank, arguing as to the suffictency of the warrant and that abundant testimony bad been offercd identifying Connors as the person hamed in the warrant wanted by the Massachusetts authorities, Judge Brady said he Was not prepared to render a decision then, but would | render his decision on next Thursday, and m the mean- time je remanded the prisoner to the custody of the Sherif. He was then handcuffed and taken back to Ludlow Street Jail accompanied by a number of friends, THE DOUBLE SALARY GRAB. In Muay, 1573, Joseph C. Pinckney was appointed Clerk of the Bourd of Supervisors, which position he filled until the end of the succeeding year, the salary of such clerkship then being fixed at $7,500 per an- The salary, however, was not paid, ana suit was brought to recover $1) 22, being the amount claimed for services during the time Mr. Pinckney 1 the office, In answer it was set up by the eity that during the time menticned the plaintif! was clerk of the Common Coaneil, and that under the stataie of 1873 he was required to dixcharge the duties of clerk of the Board of supervisors with- out additional compensation, Judge Van Brunt gave judgment for the city.
