The Lady’s Shrewdness and Intelli- gence Vouched For. _—— + SHE WAS A CATHOLIC. Views of Chancellor Preston, Moses Taylor, Judge Durell and Others. The contest over Mrs, Merrill’s will, which promised to bea bitter one, seems now to become a one-sided and short affair, It has been positively stated by the fepresentatives of the nephews and nieces, whe have objected to Cardinal McCloskey as the residuary lega- tee on the ground that the Jady was unsound of mind aud under undue influence at the time she executed ‘the codicil, that the will, or this part of it, will be set aside un the crushing revelations they promise to make On or after tte 18th of December. Thus far it will be seen by their statements in the Hynal.o that they did Bot kpow the very important fact that the lady was a Roman Catholic, having been received into the church several years ago by ber Welsh, of tne diocese of Portland, Indeed, 4t bas been positively asserted by Mrs, Merrill’s acquaintances and business friends that hor relatives knéw little or nothing about her or her affairs, because she had no very great lik- ing for these people who were only her relatives by , BOL by blood, Some have gone so far as to 10 kept out of their way purposely, at any rate, whatever, may be shown before the Surrogate, as the matter now stands the legatces seem to have the best of it. In connection with the controversy sev- eral ofthe deceased iady’s friends were interviewed yesterday with the following result. JOUN Q. JONES’ STATEMENT, Mr. John Q.

Slate, who charged the youthful “sawbones’’ with having created a disturbance at a meeting of the New York Liberal Cluv, held on iast Friday evening in the hell attxchod to the College of Physicians and Surgeons, The court room was filled with the friends of the delinquents and their accusers, and when Judge Murray took his seat upon the bench al) eyps were turned expectantly upon him. To judge by the faceg of ali tho situation was a most interesting ono, For the time being the frionds of the prisomors, who were mostly all their confreres med to forget the surgical mysteries the friends of tne ac, who were their confreres in the New York Liberal Club, acted as though they had never taken part in the heated debate on last Friday evening, when the alieged offence was coininitted by the prisoners, aud gave their every attention to the proceedings be. fore them, In respgqnse to the Judge’s command Quinlan and Swan, who had been indolently and von- chaluntly sitting 1p the prisoners’ box, with nothing else to do than to exchange an occasional wink with some sympathetic friend in tho surgical element that ecoupied many of the benches in the court room, took their piaces before the bar, The accusers were then called up and requested to state their case, THE HRINOUS CRIME OF THE STUDENTS. From tho statements made then it would appear that the alleged offence was but the crowning act of a long series of alleged outrages upoh the part of tho students of the coilege against the members of the New York Liberal Club, At several lectures, the acousers averred, had they been annoyed by the un- seemly conduct of the students, but on Friday night it became intolerable and outrageous, Upon that occasion, they stated, Dr, E, B, Foote, Jr., a young man, aud, by the way, the son of the notorious Dr. E, B, Foote who was convicted last spring of sending obscene literature through tho mails, wus delivering a lecture upon ‘Generation aud Regeneration.” This lecture, the sudents stated, was, despite the tact that there were @ number of women 1u the ball at the time, of ap cxtremely indelicate and offensive character. After the lecture there was a discussion in which a Speaker made some Wholesale accusations agains ‘he Medica! profession, and the students showed their @isapprobavion of it by hissing. For this they had been arrested, Their accusers, however, put a worso phase upon the charge. They alleged that, shortiy r the opening of Dr. Fuote’s lecture, the udents began to bigs and groan, and, finally, to be- come very Jewonsirative; im tact, objectionably so, Alter a while they arose in & body aud moved toward the door, singing a poplar song, Av tho clore of the lecture, the uccusers added, the stu- dents, who hud sought the upper and mystical regious Of the college, came rushing dowa, making as much noise aa possible. The Rov, Pagaix McCurthy was in the bull ut the time, and riging to bis feet—this is the Statement of didintercsted parties—ho deciared in a meio dramatic and highly tragic tone that ‘ihe students were lvarping to get a license to muruer wholesale.’”? This suge remark, however, appears to have been productive of no better — result than to intensity the contusion thai already prevailed, in the midst of wnich the doors were Closed, when comparative qaict was restored, a Moment, however, a student Jumped up aud asked, “Are we medical Supposed to have no rights in our own buliding?” “Yes, if you venave yourself,’ was the quick reply, The student then took the plat Jorm wud said ‘*ho merely Wished Lo enter adisclaimer Against the indecencies which had been ultered ugainet the medical proiession; such improper ianguae snouid oot be permitted am this bali.” Lhe irrepres- sivic aud Rov, Pi@aix then tried tospeak, “Drugs, he said, “ure tno great # humanity"’. is Voice was dr Babel ot nois w At this juncture one of the members poured upon the scene with Lwo of the wad, poiating oul Swan and Quiulan as t! ot the meeting, ordereu the officers to arrest them, which was accordingly done, aud the two students were locked up in the Twenty-seound street police Station, to ponder daring the might, not apon the va- rious uses to Wuich wu gguipel can be pui, but upon “hose ways which are Wark and tricks that are vain,” THE JUDGE'S REMARKS. ded the story of the disiurtance, in who: risone: 8 bad taken an acti said, ‘ive! 0 ovidence Of these geutiomen. nol rigut that they should have passed the night as they Lave done—the compauionr of roughs und drunkards, It they interfered iu any manner Warrants sbould bave been issued, aod they could have veen :ound without &@ resort (0 such severe mensurea They are dis- charged”? ‘Tbe prisoners were then heiped out of the court room by enthustastlo irtends, Cueers tur Justice Murray were proposed, «nd then the crowd moved away.
