e DAVENPORTS DOINGS. How Citizens Were Arrested and Im- prisoned on Election Day. THE POST OFFICE “CAGE.” An Extraordinary Scene at the Session of the Congressional Committee. It was eloven o'clock yesterday morning, instead of ten, when the committee investigating the charges against Commissioner John I. Davenport, Supervisor of Elections, resumea their work in the Post Office building. i John A. Foley was the first witness called. He stated that on election day he spent most of the time in the federal building. A messenger came to his house early upon that morning and left word that a man had been arrested, and he was requested to assist him as counsel. Ho weht to the designated place and found a mah in charge of & deputy marshal. He immediately hastened to repub- lican headquarters, and while there a despatch was + brought by a special deputy marshal, purporting to be signed by Supervisor of Elections Davenport. Mr. Davenport asked tor the contents of thut tele” gram, objecting to testimony being taken in regard to the action of deputy marsh: A QUESTION OF VERACITY. “Colonel Wingate knows,” said Mr. Davenport, and everybody knows that I have nothing what- ever to do with the appointment of deputy marshals.” Colonel Wingate—Mr. Davenport knows, as every- body knows, that he dictates the appointment of every one of these deputy marshals. Mr. Dayenport—That remark is untrue in concep- tion and construction. I never dictated the ap- pointment of a single deputy marshal. Chairman Lynde put a stop to a threatened war of words, and iustructed the witness to stato, if he could, the contents of the telegram in question. IN THE “CAGE,” ‘Mr. Foley replied that in substance it was—that all persons arrested should be brought before Commis- sioner Davenport. In reply to further questions by Colonel Wingate witness narrated the state of affairs as he found them at the federal building upon his arrival there, Many arrests had been made, examinations were going on before Commissioner Davenport, and there were twenty on thirty persons confined ina “cage” on one of the upper floors of the building. When he returned to the building, between nine and ten o'clock the court room was crowded and every- thing was in confusion. The great percentage of the Grrests made, witness saidj were democrats. There was not @ single republican from the Fourteenth dis- trict, though he recognized twenty or thirty demo- crats who had been takenfromthere. Themen under arrest were not allowed to go out of the roomand had no cpportunity to get any food. Mr. Davenport handed witness the naturalization papers of Simon Callen, referred to in the direct ex- amination as duplicates. ‘Witness said they were evidently the originals. Mr. Davenport—And yon say he voted before 1868. Isn’t it a little strange that the mm should vote be- fore he was naturalized ? A’ Not at all; I know many who dia. * ‘Lo Colonel Wingate—Knew that these arrests had deterred a great many from voting. Witness was then asked by Mr. Davenport i? he had received or sent any telegrapliic despatches on efection day, Witness replied he had received none. ‘TWO DESPATCHES FROM JOHN KELLY. Mr, Davenport—These are addressed to you, are thoy not (handing two despatches to witness) ? nover reccived these; if I had they would never have got into your hands. Mr. Davenport—I will prove to the committee that those despatches ‘were found open on the table in my room and atthe place where you (witness) sat. Colonel Wingate—You discovered them something after the manner Butter found the cipher despatches, Mr. Davenport—butler is able to take caro of him- selt and so am I. ‘Tho despatches, which were put in evidence, were as follows :— Tammany [aut, 9:16 A. M. A. "gy Commissioner Davenport's room, General t Office Got out habeas corpus before Judge Donohue and test the question. JOHN KELLY. Tamwany HAUL, 9:25 A. M. rer a ht apg Commissioner Davenport's room, Gencral Post Office Have habeas corpus issued by Judge Dondhue et once and test question. se Od. RELLY. EX-JUDGE QUINN ON THE STAND. ‘ Ex-Judge Denis Quinn,-the next witness, testified that he was before Commissioner Davenport much of the time on election day, and before eight o'clock that morning had some difficulty in getting into the room; there seemed to bea great deal of unnecessary dolay in dealing with the cases; there appeared to bo no blanks for preparing bail bonds; sometimes the Commissioner was a little harsh in dealing with the prisoners. ‘Co Commissioner Davenport—A discussion arose at a meeting of the Tammany Hall Committee on Or- ganization in regard to the matter, in which many prominent men took part; the result was a resolu- tion appointing a committee, consisting of Luke F. Cozans, H. D. Purroy and witness, to wait on Com- unissioner Dayenport; there was some discussion abont the committee meeting Commissioner Daven- ‘ort nud examining each case as it came up, but no finite arrangement was come to; the impression lott on witness’ mind was that Commissioncr Daven- port was intlexible in his course; he considered many Of the questions put by Commissioner Davenport to persons brought before him impertinent and useless and his whole conduct arbitrary. ‘Yo Colonel Wingate—Belie that from tho fear of arrest by United States marshals on the part of items) ontntemngted party last year lost from seventh a to ten thousand votes. ‘Lo Chairman Lynde—Did not know of any persons being urrested for false bis, Peg who did not pre- sent themeelyes at the polls; nearly all that were ar- rested were democrats. ARRESTED AND DISCHARGED. Michael Lawless testified that he had lived in this country about thirty years, and had taken ont m uralization papers in 1460; he was told on the morn- ing of election day that a warrant for his arrest had Deen issued. Mr. Davenport admitted that the certificate was correct, arid that the witness had been arrested on a complaint charging him with haying a certificate issued in 1868, and that he was discharged. IM ALL DAY. General Martin ion, formerly chief of aieff of the Sixth Army corps, who appeared on elec- tion day betore Commissioner Davenport on behalf of two voters of the Seventh Assembly district, said be bad great difficulty in gaining entrance to tho room, which was crowded, In Place assigned to the prisoucrs was a person inst whom no com- plaint had been mado, and who was not discharged until after a long imprisonment. ‘the two men tor whom he appeared were arrested about eight o’clock A. M. and were not released until about eight o'clock P. M. The arrests deterred fers) Ba ed from voting. Ali the cases could have m disposed of much more rapidly than they were. Albert Koli, the next witness, said he went to the war us a soldier in the Forty-second (DeKalb) regi- ment; afterward served in the Seventh artill to the end of the war; took out his papers in 1868; went before a judge 1m some of the courts; told how long he had served in the army; wrote his name on the back of that paper (in Colonel Wingate’s hand); was on ted on election day and discharged after night- tall, At the close of witness’ testimony Colonel Win- gate, Who had in his hand the naturalization paper tthe witness, Cae him:—"I suppose you value is paper ighly ?”” Win ness—L do, ne, Colonel Wingate—Thon there it is; A SCENE NOT ON Tith, Mr. Kohl leaned over and bare! ting hold of the papers, wheu Davenport spran; from his seat aud made a clutch at the document. “No you don’t!” boldly exclaimed the witness, “You will see it I don’t!” revorted Dayenport, strug: Be to regain the paper. The attempt was buftled y the old veteran, Mr, Davenport—You will aco if I don’t get it. Voices throughout the room—'Don’t you givo,| it up to him. ‘ick to it.”” . Kohi—You must recollect, Mr. Davenport, that my rights as @ citizen are worth as much to mo 46 yours are to you, Mr. Davenport (appealing to the committee)—That paper is a record of this office, Mr, Prye—Counsel had no bueinese or authority to give up the paper to the witn 3 it Was an iim spertinence to the committee sitting here holding is investization. Colonel Wingato—that paper was vot in tho cus- tody of the committee, ond is nota record of the Caurt, Witness has stated that it was forcibly taken from him by one who was not on officer of this Court, and he bas a right to its possession; but if the com- mittee consider it a record of the Court I willask the witness to return it; but he is a discharged soldier, and his paper was taken from him by foree. ‘If it was arecord of the Court that is another thing the paper was taken from this man by force by subordinate of this Supervisor of Elections, and he has w legal right to it Chairman Lynde—Whatever right the Commis- he paper bed is not the taking possession keop it, « LL. sioner had to tke question here, but the manner of the paper was highly improper. Colonel Wingate uvsired to make an explanation, NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, JANUARY 30, 1879—TRIPLE SHEET. but was interrupted by the chairman, who said don't want to hear anything further in this matter. ‘That r was produced for examination, and coun- pel acted most int roperly. in taking it while it was being used in evident. the witness has a right to it there is a proper way to obtain possession of it.” Colonel Wingate to witness—The committee are of opinion that you should not take the paper; please return it. Mr. Kohl—I have got it now and I will keep it. Avoice in the crowd—Don’t give it up; let them arrest you, THREATENING EXPULSION. Mr. Frye, of the committee—I will expel any per- son improperly interfering with. these proceedings, whether itbe counsel or any gentleman Cr swage the bar (referring toa gentleman prominent in the room). ‘fhis paper was in evidence fore the Court and in the custody of the Court, and no party had a right to take it. It was a contempt of Court on the part of counsel, contempt of Court on the part of witness and contempt on the part of any gentleman outside interfering in the proceedings. Mr. Forney (of the committee)—The paper was not in the custody of the Court, but in that of Mr. Davenport. Mr. Frye—It was produced in evidence. Mr. Forney—That is true. Colonel Wingate (to witness)—Please return it to the chairman, ‘The witness threw oil on the troubled waters by La re the document to the chairman of the com- mittee. Mr. Frye—I don’t deny that the witness has a per- fect right to the possession of this paper, but he has ay use he can obtain it. ey ntleman—How can this discharged soldier, this laboring man, enforce his rights? The paper is rightfully his and you have no right to take it from him. He is no lawyer to go into the courts for redress, Mr. Frye—He is backed up by Tammany Hail men, and no doubt they will aid him in the matter. The chairman demanded order, and the even tenor of the proceedings were resumed. Very little further business was transacted, and the committee ad- journed till ten this morning. VANDERBILT'S ESTATE ANOTHER INEFFECTUAL EFFORT TO VACATE THE ORDER OF JUDGE DAVIS FOR A STRUCK JULY IN THE ONE MILLION SUIT. Counsel for Cornelius J. Vanderbilt in pis suit against William H. Vanderbilt for $1,000,009, claimed to have been promised him by the jatter if he would interpose no objection to the probate 6f Commodore Vanderbilt's will, are still fighting ‘vigorously to bring the case to a speedy trial. Dissatisfied with the decision of Judge London refusing to vacate the order of Judge Davis directing a stay of proceedings until struck jury could be obtained to trv the case, the counsel prepared affidavits on which to base are- newal of their application for the vacation of Judge Davis’ order. Upon this renewed application the matter came up for further argument at half-past three o’clock yesterday afternoon before Judge Lan- don in Part 3, Supreme Court, Circuit. As on the previous arguments, the court room was crowded, Messrs. Scott Lord and Ethan Allen appearing for the plaintiff, and Messrs. Henry L. Clinton, William A. Beach and Rufus H. Choate for the defendant, Mr. Lord read an affidavit setting forth the necessity of an immediate trial of the ease, and that to compass such a trial the stay granted by Judge Daly should haye to be vacated. Mr. Clinton raised the preliminary objection that, as required by rule 25, it was not stated that in the affidavit upon which the order to show cause was ranted, that a like motion had already been made Sacre another judge. It was conceded that Judge Davis had been applied to to vacate his own order granting the stay, and that Le had denied this ap- plication in-a written opinion. He insisted that the affidavit submitted by Mr. Lord should have stated this fact. Judge Landon said that the fact that the question had eiready been passed upon by Judge Davis was defensive matter, that might be urged upon the merits, somewhat in the nature of a former judg- ment.) The conclusion of the whole matter was a final desision by the Court sustaining the preliminary objection which leaves the order of Judge Davis granting a stay in full force, REAL ESTATE. The only sale on the Real Estate Exchange yester- day was made by Ludlow & Co., who, by order of Theodore Arnold, referee, sold the three story brick dwelling, with lot 16,8x50.4, No. 169 West’ Forty- eighth street, north side, 50 feet east of Seventh avenue, to Mary U.

To THe Eprror or THE HERALD:— Will yon kindly notify the city authorities of the condition of the sidewalk in front of No. 636 Second avenue? ‘The whole walk is covered with water. i NEIGHBO! WHY IS THIS? To Tur Eprror oF THe HenaLp:— During the last two months I have been in the habit of mailing copies of the Henanp and of the illvstrated papers to a friend at Westport, Mendo- cino county, Cal., from Station E and the geueral Post Ottice. ‘Although I have always taken the pro- caution to have the matter weighed and have pnt on itall the stamps required not more than two pack- ages haye been delivered out of ten. 3. M. A LITTLE TOO RAPID, To THe Eprtor or THE Hexeup:— Last Monday night I rode on the “1” railroad, via Thifd avenue, intending to get out at Twenty-third street. I was standing behind the conductor, who had searcely opened the gate to permit egress, when he closed it and started the train, I told him I wished to get out. He said, ‘Too late now; you must ride on_to Thirty-fourth street.” At Thirty. fourth street I toid the ticket agent that I had bee: carried beyond my destination, thr mine, and requested to be carried back. i can’t help that; you must pay again if you want to ride back.” I protested, but it was rar pal DANGEROUS STREET CROSSINGS. To rue Eptror or tue HERALD:— Please cali the attention of the Street Cleaning Bu- rean to the bad condition of the street crogsings from ‘Twenty-ihird street to Thirty-fourth strect on the west side of Seventh avenue. On Tuesday evening my wife, with a baby in_her arms, fell on stepping off the sidewalk on to the slippery crossing, hurting herself and the baby, As you aré doing a great deal of good in showing the above “brreau” thé bad con- dition of the streets in general, try and do something for the masses that have to depend on “shank’s” mare for locomotion to pass over the slippery cross- ings, and you will have the best thanks of ACCIDENT. BASKETS VS. DIRTY WINDOWS. To tne Eprror or Tar HEnaLp:— Haying travelled on the New York Elovated Rail- road ever since it went into operation I was sur- prised this morning, at the Forty-second street west side station, at being refused a ticket for the train then due on aécount of _ having an empty basket, measuring about eighteen inches long and twelve inches wide and ten to twelve inchas decp, I protested, but it wak no use. I had to leave my basket in the station until I could call for it in the'evening. IT have never heard of any railroad in the United States#bjecting to such a small basket, and it is my opinion that if the party issuing such an order wonld issue a mandate to have the dirty windows of their cars washed it would be more beneticial than the besket order is. CONSTANT TRAVELLER. IMPERFECT ANSWERS TO ADVERTISEMENTS. To THe Epiror o¥ THE HeRaLD:— f Ihave a complaint to make which may strike you as somewnat novel, and yet it is an important one. It is in answers reccived to advertisements inserted in your paper. I have often wanted to call attontion to this fact:—Recently I had occasion to insert on advertisement for a salesman. The advertise- ment was very full, elaborate and comprehensive, and stated just what was necessary to gain the atten- tion of the advertiser. The answers were numer- ous—something like a hundred—and yet not more than five are in any way answers io the advertise- mnt, hardly entering into any details atall, One man, being out of a situation, thought he would apply, &c.; another says if our references ure satis- factory and will guarantee him a libgpal salary he will grant us an interview, and the majority of them desire particulars seut to them. Now, out of this nu- merous batch [have no doubt there are men of ability suitable to fill the position for which I desired them, but I am unable to find it out without reelly interview- ing every one of them, which is no small task. In call- ing attention to this I believe lam doing the unem- ployed a service, as in answering an advertisement they can hardly be too explicit, They will never lose anything by details as to how long they have been in business and who they have been empioyed by, their forte, if they have any, and all such facts as would bo apt to attract the a:tention of the advertiser. ‘Respectfully yours, RELIABLE, PARK DEPARTMENT. AN INVESTIGATION INTO ITS MANAGEMENT DE- SIRED BY THE COMMISSIONERS—RIVERSIDE DRIVE-—COMMISSIONER LANE AND SUPERIN= TENDING ENGINEER FRANKLIN. The Park Commissioners at their meeting yester- day thought it advisable to call upon the President of the Board of Aldermen to order an investigation into the management of their department. The resolution, which was offered by President Wenman, called for this official action, and stated that the Board was solicitous that such an investigation should take place, “because of the various insinua- tions published in the press, and on account of a recent action of the Board of Aldermen reflecting on the manegement of the department.” On motion of President Wenman the communice- tion of Engineer Thomas Franklin relative to the work on Riverside drive, and the certificate of Julius W. Adams and William J, McAlpine, members of the American Society of Civil Engineers, relative to the same, were placed on file, The contractors of the Riverside drive were also instructed to proceed with the work in accordance with the terms of their con- tract. Commissioner Lene called from the table and moved the adoption of the following :— Resolved, That Mr. Thomas Franklin, Superiatendin; Engincer of the Improvement and construction of Riv side avenne, be, and horoby ix, removed trom his posi in this department, and that he be paid up to this dat The motion was lost. MR, LANE'S DEFENCE OF THE RESOLUTION, Subsequently Mr. Lane stated that the retention of Mr. Franklin would be injurious to the department. ‘A committee of threo civil engineers, appointed by tho Mayor, contractors and comunissioners, had ex- amined the work on Riverside avenue, and had re- orted adversely, thereby compromising Mr. frank- in and the contractors, ‘Cherofore it was the duty of the Commissioners to remove Mr. Frankiin and appoint in his place a practical engineer, who would have the confidence of the department and the R; blic. He could not conscientiously audit ills which had been certified by Mr. Frank- Im, as the latter official had heretotore approved of work which had been but very dimperfectly pertormed. Commissioner Lane could not understand how the order instructing the con- tractors to resume work would in any way facilitate | Dysiness, Without meney they could not complete theic contract. They were now seriously embar- rassed. ‘Thirty-four thousand dollars in Viens for work, labor and services performed are on fle agaiust th and the indebtedness of McEncroe, the sub-con- tractor, wmounts to $60,000 or $70,000, ‘There is a estimate for work performed in the Comptrdller’s oflice for $5,099 48, but the Comptroller has retused to issue a warrant for that amount. There area largo number of liens filed which the Comptroller muvt respect, aud therefore he is compelled to retain the estimates in his possession, These lien’ must first be removed betore the contractors can realize any share of the proceeds they are entitled to on the work performed. Their indebtedness to mechanics and laborers amounts to $20,000. The drive could be mpleted by the lstof August if the coutractors would only periorm their whole duty. Mr, Lane was anxious to have the drive open to the public by spring. If the provisions ot the contract were honestly complied with the drive would be a great boon to the uptown residents aud property owuers. It would open upon # new and picturesque portion of the city, and, with rapid transit pushed to that point, which ‘would be an accomplished fact by the Ist August, the completion of the drive would materially increase the vi of real estate in | that section of the city, It his action was calculated to retard the work, that was not his fault, as he was only desirous that the contractors and all others ofti- cially concetned should do their duty faithfully and | honvstly in the premises, A communication was received from Engene E. McLean, constructing engineer, submitting @ plan for the drainage of that portion’ of the Twenty-third ward which is bounded on the north by Georye street, on the east by Union avenne and White's lane, on the west by Delmonico and Concord avenues, and thence southerly to Long Isiand Sound, Permission was granted to the New York “I," road to place a double stairway on the sidewalk at the southeast corner of the Battery. SALE OF UNCLAIMED GOODS, Under tho provisions of the law regulating tho storage of merchandise @ large lot of goods remain- ing in bond over three years were disposed of yester- day, at public salo, by Burdett & Dennis, at Nos, 97 and 9) Water street, under orders fron the Collector of tho Port. In many instances the bidding was very spirited, Two trunks, filed with ladies” clothing, roalived $34; one cuxe Of sMOKers' art.cles bronsnt i, and another $35, Brandy sold tor $4 1, 4 425 per gailon. One box of confectionery was knocked down at $00. Oue bale of Peruvian bark ‘was bought for $360, aud other goods in proportion, THE COURTS. Application to Discharge John Schmidt on Bail. ——_—— DR. ROBESON’S WILL. Appointment of a New Receiver of Belden & Co. The Chambers of the Supreme Court was filled yesterday morning by a motley crowd of residents of the lower wards, interested’ in the legal proceedings in the case of John Schmidt, who was held, without bail, by Coroner Woltman for the alleged murder, on the 23d inst., of tho sailor Henry Madden at No, 13 Oliver street, Mr. Wilham F. Howe, who on Schinidt's Dbebalf had sued out a writ of habeas cor- puis, made a strenuous appeal for his liberation on 1. He insisted that the shooting, which occurred in the prisoner’s house, wis done in self<letence and with such provocation as would werrenta jury in finding a verdict of no higher grade than manslaughter in the third degree. To give additional pete to his argument he brought forward the prisoner and exhibited the marks which he claimed had been infil on him by the deceased betore the shooting. Assistant Dis- trict Attorney Leary, in opposition, contended that the case was one of murder in the first degree, that the shooting presented every element of «vlibera- tion, and that Schmidt should not, therefore, be ad- mitted to buil. Judge Barrett took the depositions given before Coroner Woltman and reserved his de- cision, the prisoner in the meantime being remanded to the City Prison. CURIOUS WILL LITIGATION. Dr. Benjamin R. Robeson, formerly residing at No. Washington square, died in Angust, 1578, at the ‘age of seventy-three, leaving a daughter, Mrs, Mary E. Sage, a son, Benjamin R. Robeson, and three grandchildren, He left a property worth about $200,000, and made a will in 1865 and a codicil in 1870. He gave'a lite estate to each of his three grandehil- dren, the remainder per capita to their childre: Thero are eleven grandcbildren, and Mrs. Sage hi seven out of the eleven. Mr. Robeson died in Sep- tember last, and no will being found Mrs. Sage offers for probate acopy of an instrument purporting to be a will, together with a codicil. She claiined that the original was destroyed by Dr. Robeson, the testator. Tue case came before the Surrogute ye terday on an application to admit the copy to pro- bate, it being claimed by the contestants that the original will was destroyed by the testator himscl!, Three witnesses testified to the making of the will, atter which the Court adjourned until this morning. BELDEN & ©0.’8 RECEIVERSHIP. Adecision was rendered yesterday by Judge J. F. Daly on the application to remove Mr. Henry #I. Belden, Jr., as joint receiver of the firm of Belden & Co. Judge Daly hands down a lengthy opinion, in which he appoints William J. Best the sole receiver of the firm. Judge Daly, in his opinion, holds that this motion simply reopens the original dispute and briggs up for judicial investigation and determina- tion the allegatious of the compiaint and answer of the affidavits upon the original motion for a receiver, and that joint action on the part ot Mr. Conner and Mr. Belden, Jr.,is impossible under the cireum- stances. In view of this fact he directs that they both be removed and a single receiver—Mr. Bost—an indifferent party, be appointed in their place. ‘ WIFE MORDERERS, The Grand Jury made two presentations of indict- ments for manslaughter, and the prisoners were yes- terday arraignéd before Judge Gildersleeve, in the Court of General Sessions. The first case was that of James McCiloin, charged with killing his wife, Mary MeGloin, in the tenement house 115 Mulberry stree on the 14th of last November. The other was James Dennedy, indicted for killing his wife Catherine, on the 3d inst., in West Forty-second street. Mr, A. H. Hummel, their counsel, interposed a plea of “not guilty” for both the prisone ‘A discharge in bankruptcy was granted in the United Stated District Court by Judge Choate yester- day to J.'f. Lynch. ° Godfrey Hunter, the colored steward of the schooner Sambs, charged with an assault upon Captain Henra- hen, of that vessel, was discharged from custoly yesterday by United States Commissioner Shields. Alfred Baker and Charles F. Fischer pleaded guilty to forgery, and Judge Gildersleeve sentenced the former to ono year and the latter to two years in State Prison.
