Yesterday Justice John Otto, of Newark, held an examination in the case ot/Frederick Greiner, George Dicterle and Charles Luiz, who were recently arrested upoa a charge of abducting # young girl named Eliza- beth Hart and by threats compelling herto marry Lutz, The party were first tried jointly upon a charge of subornation of perjury, 1m forcing Elizabeth to swear before the minister who married ber and Lutz that she Was over eighteen yearsot age. The first witness called was George Hart, the father of Elizabeth, who testified that his daughter was not yet sixieen years of age. Rev. George M. Boynton, of the Fairmount Baptist Church, testified that be married Elizabeth to Charles Luiz on Sunday afvernoon, October 28; as they were straugeré to him aud looked very young ve re- quired both to make affidavit that toey*were over eighteen years ofage; Elizabeth so testified and Charles declared that be was twenty-four, Elizabein was next placed upon the stand. She had testified that she would be sixieen years old nex! month; that she left her home on the witernoon in question under the pretence of getting ber tooth pulled; she walked from No, 165 Hamburg place to the corner of Market and Broud streets, where sbe met the defendants, At this olnt Mr. Kalish, counsel for the accused, objected to er giving any 1urther testimony, on the ground that & married Woman could not ‘testily against her husbaud or any others charged jointly with him, ‘The Court sustained the objection. No turthes testi- inony was given, and the Court decided that the evi- deuce of the Rev. Mr. boynton was sufficient to hold the defendanis for subornation of perjury. The defendants were next tried lor conspiring to abduct Biz beth and forcing her to marry Lutz, but the State having failed to prove a case the defendants were discharged upon this and bailed to appear before the Special Sessions upon the first charge.

SHALL BOYS AND GIRLS BE TAUGHT TOGETHER IN OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS?—VIEWS OF OFFI- CIALS AND TEACHERS—BOTH SIDES OF THE QUESTION. £ The discussion as to cocducation of boys and girls in the public schools hus recently been so warm and bitter in Massachusetts that the subject has been re- vived in New York and Brooklyn, In Boston tye Latin school is an institution supported by the public, ‘The argument to exclude giris by the presidents of six of the iending American colleges, including Harvard and Yale, was that the moral atmosphere of » boy’s £cuool is not a fitting ono for girls, and that the moral tone of the Latin and Greek classica, while it does not burt boys, is bad tor girls, To this powerful argu- ment against coeducation Hon, Charles #rancis Adams adved the weight of bis opposition by deciar- ing that_be believed some shocking scandal would en- sue from it, which would drive us back into tbe Lue Topean system of separate schools, On the other hand, Mrs. Zina Fay Pierce put in a plea for coeduca- tion on the ground that the taste aud refinement of giris have the effect of softening the barane a of lessening tho coarseness of boys when they are trained together, » WHAT NEW YORKERS THINK ‘A HeRatp reporter, in order to discover how co- education was viewed in thig locality, called upon some of the most prominent teachers and officers of our educational societies, and their views were tound to bo as toliows:— Mr, Lawrence D.

WHE REORGANIZATION SCHEME NOT LOOKED UPON WITH FAVOR—OPPOSITION OF BOND- HOLDERS—-THE FOSITION OF THE WILKES- BARRE COMPANY TOWARD THE CENTRAL. ‘The scheme in reiation to the reorganization of the New Jersey Central Railroad, already published in the HERALD, It is beleved, will moet with considerable op- position from the bondholders. Among the bood and stock holders und others interested there seems to bea feeling of uneasiness, and it is understood also that many of the bondolders of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarro Coal Company, which is at present leased to the New Jersey Central, are feartul that their imterests muy suffer and to protect them bi formed a syndicate, in which neerly three miilions of the bouds are already represented, Upon this point Mr, Tillinghast, receiver of the Lehigh ang Wilkesbarre, wi ticent, but inti- mated that plans for the reorganization of that com- pany were under consideration and would in time be submitted to thoso interested, His company bad nothing to do with the proposition made on bebalf of the New Jersoy Ceutral Railroad, PROUABLE REJECTION OF THE SCHEME Tho opinion of Mr. G. C, Haven, No. 17 Wall street, onvol the bondholders, being asked, the following conversation ensued:— + “Whatdo you think of the proposed scheme for the reorganization pf the New Jersey Central road?!” “Ido not think-it will gothrougn, The Lehigh and Wilkesburre Coal Company controls the entire coal interest of the Central road, and the bondholders of the Lebigh Company will not agrec,’”? “Batis not a large proportion of the bonds of the Lehigh Company held by the Jersey Cuntral Com- pavy?” “Yes, tho Jersey Contral owns most of the bonds, and by foreclosing could perhaps make their own torms; but it is very questionable if it would be to their Interest to foreclose,” “Woat would be the effect if they aid?” “Well, 11 the New Jersoy Central cancelled Its lease it 1s not at all unlikely that eome other concern would get the contro! of the Lenigh Company.” “Wuat is the company worth now “AC LUE present rates tie Lehigh Company is worth probably, in round figures, $7,000,000 or $8,000,000, ity actual cost berg ubous $23,000,000, The Jersey Ceniral proposition is equal to giving about twenty- five cents on the doliar, and I do uot believe the prop- osition will be accepted,” “Woat can the Lehigh bondholders do about it?” “Phey could force ihe New Jersey Coutral to to! close, 1 do not believe the proposition as made will be accepted, and in ail probability snother proposi- tion will bo made, In my juagment they will have either to make w Hew proposition oF wise toreciose.”” “How much of the Leuigh and Wilkesdarre bonds does the Jersey Koniral howd??? “The Jersey Compauy owns over $6,000,000 of their bonds, nearly wil of which are hypotuecated lor louns. About $4,000,000 more aro reserved, tor prior lowns, and thut—-tie wholo issue being about $15.000,000— Jeaves avout $5,000, 000 iu the hands of the public,’ “What is tue Jersey Central road dowg now 2”? “Weil, it is reported tuat in the past five Mouths the earnings of the road have beea amply suMcient to cover the runuiug expenses and the interest of the first mortgage bonds and the consolidated bongs, L believe the receiver is acting with great skill aud good judgment in the interest of the road. ‘The bondholders, however, caunot be expected to wait forever for thor interest.’’ “How would a foreclosure affect the bonds??? “ho first mortgage bonds would undoubtedly in that event be wortu as much as they are Low. MR. JOHNSTON'S OPINION, Mr. Jobuston, of Brown Brothers & Co,, stated that the offer was wade in good faith to include all classes of securities, aud its rejection or acceptance depended entirely upon the voudholders it was wot improba- bie that u foreclosure might take place at any time, WHAT SAMUKL SLOAN SAYS. Mr. Samuel Sloan, President of the Delaware, Lack- awanna and Westoru Railroad was waited upon and the following conversation took place:— “What do you think, Mr. Sloan, of the proposed scheme for the reorganization ol the New Jersey Ceu- tral Railroad?” ‘‘As one ol the holders of the securities of the com- pany I do not think the arrangement an equitable one to the Lehigh and Wiikesbarre bondholders, 1 re- gard the coal property as so important a property that if the settioment ts not acceptable to the holders of those bonds a coutest wouid inevitably eusue, as their valuo is not appreciated in the scheme. The holders would not give up & mortgage lien in Valuable coal property for preturred stock based on the success of the company, for if the New Jersey Central Company is deprived of its coal prop- erty it would be a serious damage to the company, its prosperity mainly dependiog upon coal transporuition. ‘The other coal compavies holding, a’ they do, their own coal properties, may be induced or tempted to quire the Wilkesbarre property on better termy thao thone Indicated 1n this reorganization scheme. 1t would seem as if the main object of the reorganization scheme was to secure the first consoliduied mortgage bondholders, who, 1 is true, would by a foreciosuro Wipe ou: their indorsement on tbe Wiikesvurre and American Dock und Improvement Company's vouds at the risk of losing control of the coal prop- erty, The reliel, however, of the Now Jersey Central from tts iudursemeut of the Wiikesbvarre aud Awericay Dock and other bonds mignt be vbtained in sotme Ocher more equituble mode. The Awericay Dock aud Lmprovement property has always veeo esteemed as most valuable vy tue holders of the bonds who now hold a mortgage lien on the property. For my own part I cannot accept iiity per cent ot preferred: stock for mortage jiens, aud 1 cannot but think that tbe first consulidated bondholders of the New Jersey Contral, of which 1 am one, will find \t to their interest to ‘r their | scueme of reorganization with a view to a more equitable proposition to the nolders of the Lenigh and Wilkesbarre aod American Dock and Im- provement bonds, so far as the stocknold- ers? “interests are coucerned, @ further exten- sion of amterest =puyments on the first consolidated Louds for turee or five years instead of | two, preserving the mortgage lien of the coupon until its final paymeut, thus doing uway with preferonce shares and contingent results. The stockholders would then bave more confidence to pay any instal- ment tho committee may order for liquidating > 'TEN'LH NATIONAL BANK. RUMORS OF PROPOSED CHANGES—THE BANK IN A SOLVENT CONDITION.
