HENRY S. IVES IN COURT. HEARING OF THIS CELEBRATED RAIL ROAD CASE. "What tha Napoleon of TTftll Street U Charged With by the Freildent or the Olnclnnntl, Hamilton & Dayton Itall rondThq Judge ltcsarres Deolsion. Wkw Yoiik, Doo. 10. Ilenry 8. Ives ap peared at the Tombs police court to-day with an array of prominent counsel to answer the charge of President Dexter, of tho Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton rail road. The interests of the latter were looked nf tor by Lawyor Cass. The pi oceedlngs opened with tho reading of the complaint on which tho warrant for the arrest of Ivos was grantod. Tho com plaint chargos Ives with having appropria ted to his own use tho proceeds of a sight draft for $l00,0O, drawn Juno 3, 1887, by the First National bank of Cincinnati on the "Western National bank of this city. Mr. Dexter charges that tho draft was in part payment of (t39,0u0 by the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton for 6,000 shares of Terro Haute, Vandalia & Minneapolis rail road, and should havo been handed to A. R. JIcKcon, president of tho corporation. It was alto cliargod thut instead of doing this Ives had it deposited with tho Amorican Exchango bank to the individual credit of H. S. Ives & Company, and that it was afterwards paid by tho Western National bank. President Doxter, the complainant, was the first witness calloil. Hardly had Mr. Dexter began his testi mony when a deluge of objections Woro in terposod by Mr. Ives' lawyers. Aftor a long wrangle", Mr. Johnson on the part of Ives, said: "Wo admit tho recei t of this money by Henry 8. Ivos, trustee, and that it was deposited to his credit in the bank. We court investigation so far as this oaso is concerned. We will ovon admit that the money was never passed Into the credit of tho general account of tho Cincinnati, Ham ilton & Dayton company. Wo will show, however, that Mr. Ives legally held this money as truitoo and vice president, of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton railway, and that It was properly passed to tho credit of Henry S. Ives, trustee, on tho books." A call for tho books of the Cincinnati, Hamilton & Dayton was made by one of Mr. Ives' lawyers. Mr. Cass, for the plain US', retorted that all the boohs of the company would be forthcoming if Mr. Ives, would produce tho dthors.'' Mr. Dexter said he was not satisfied with the admissions modo by Mr. Ivos. Ho wanted them broader. Piles of books were brought in and another legal wrangle ensued. Judge Kilbroth cautioned tho lawyers that they were straying away from tho case. Mr. Cas3 for President Dexter then said: "Your honor, we claim that not one cent of this 1100,000 was ever paid over by Mr. Ives to the company's credit We claim that the f 100,000 was en over-payment by Mr. Dex ten Ho paid $100,000 mora 'than he in tended to pay, Mr. Dextor and his attornoy struggled for a long time to got in some testimony but the objections were too numerous, and finally Mr. Johnson, of Ives' counsel, took witness in hand. Ho severely cross-examined Mr. Dextor. The latter admitted that he was not an oflicer or even a stockholder of the company at that time and only knew of tho matter of the draft from tho books nnd. files of the company. Ho also admitted that he had commenced this criminal pro ceeding without authority from the direc tors of the road and that ho had secured Mr. Cass as tho attorney because Mr. Ives had other criminal matters of his own against Mr. Ives. The witnoss acknowl edged that ho had threatened criminal pro ceedings against Ives some time ago. Ives interfered in tho matter of the loan of Irving A. Evvnn, of Boston, although it was a private business transaction of Mr. Ives and Ives had threatened to enjoin the wit ness from purchasing tho socunties in that loan." Aftor further testimony Judge Kilbreth took the papers and roserved his decision. DESTROYED BY FIRE. Lincoln Wigwam, in Toledo, Burned. Other Serious Fire Losses.
