When court met Et 3 o'clock yeEterday
afternoon the Jury in the Powell-Courad
caae was dtscha iped, again haring declared
Its Inability to ever agree.
The Lynch-Martin matter was then re
sumed by Mr. Lore. After making a few
preliminary remarks he took up and con
sidered the affidavits which were presented
to Impeach the sworn statement of Thomaa
Toy. All the affidavits stated that Toy was
not at the polls during the entrle day, but
did not deny he was present at the voting
place. One of the affldavlta, that of Henry
Dupont, waa qualified by thé statement that
Toy was away f rom the window of the polls
sometime. _ -,
There was no denying of the assertion
that 30 Illegal votes were cast at the polls
election day. Positive evidence of course
always outweighed mere licresay. The
affidavits of the respondent were criticised
as not meeting the affidavit of the relator,
and the weak points In them shown up. The
assertion of Toy that 30 illegal votes had
been cast for Marlin showed that there waa
a defect in his title. He agreed with Mr.
Bradford that the burdt'if'M proof did rest
with Mr. Martin to show that he waa legally
elected. When, in the pleading Martin
should show that he had a legal title, *ben
the burden of proof would come hack to
the relator. There were many discrepencies
In the various counter affidavits, some de
daring one thing and others another. It
was not proved that Thomas Toy's affidavit
was not conclusive.
Mr. Higgins thought the exhaustive char
actor of his colleague's argument made his

Av the conclusion ot the argument the
Chief J usticc remarked that the case was a
very u#n cu lt one from ordinary applications
for a.rtk*. There was a reason why the
matter atauld be well examined into, and
he proposed with the approval of counsel to
take some tim« to do so. The whole sub
ject would be taken into consideration aud
judgment delivered at the first day's meet
ing of the Court of Appeals, qn the first day
of January uext, in Dover. Alter consider

JAMES n. A A IlON AGAIN.
By this time all the judges were evidently
very anxious to leave the bench and adjourn.
The Chief Justice did so, and after a little
quibbling the matter of dissolving the
foreign attachment issued against the pro
perty of James H. Aaron was again
taken up.
Mr. Nields moved to have the attachment
dissolved, but counsel on the other side ob
jected, and they were permitted to call
the stand fteujumin II. Money, a brother of
James II. Aaron's. The witness was ques
tioned as to Aaron's condition before
disappeared, and also os to the latter's busi
ness affairs. All matters of record were

ueaa went on to Chicago and found Aaron
In the poet office; went there because he
thought lie would expect a letter, and I did
not write; Aaron first stopped at 35 West
Washington btreet, Chicago; I lived with his
w ile, who Is my slater, and during hie ab
pported her ami her children, who
would otherwise have starved; did not
notice anything unusual iu Aaron's appear
mice when he was iu Chicago; Aaron
lived under an aiibumcd name In Chicago.
Mr. NIclda banded Money a note of
for $175 and asked if he didn't owe that to
Aaron. He said yea, hut that Aaron owed
him $300. The reply caused a laugh at Mr.
Nielli's expense. The WjtneSs then pro
duced a note of his own for $300 payable to
Aaron, which he saiil was what Aaron owed
him. The laugh was then the other way,
but the witness explained that iie liad had a
transaction with Aaron about some horses
und had never received his uion»y.
The court at last agreed to dissolve the
attachment with costs, it not having been
proved that Aaron liud chauged his resi

A DECISION GRANTED.
A decision was given by the court in
. Seidell, Hast
case of Henry E. Shimp
lugs & Co., argued at the last term ol
Superior Court. The claim was $363.23
three tarloads of charcoal supplied to
feudants' order ; the defense pleaded set
aud recoupment, the whole of the order not
having been executed and the defendants,
us they claimed, being put to ad
expeuse in supplying
. Plaintiff deb ur red to
. a
ditional
deficiency
pica aud the court sustained the demurrer,
holding that the. special plea w as bud, but
that it could be given in evidence under
general issue. The decision establishes
point that when an order is only partly
executed the amount of the executed por
tion may be sued for while the defendant
may plead the damages caused by nou-de

A CAPIAS FOR TKACY TITUS.

Old Debt»—A Peculiar Cam.
Last night between the acts in "The
Lace Handkerchief,
a deputy
Queen's
sheriff walked up to Tracy Titos, manager
of the company, as he came off the stage,
and said:
"I have a capias for you, Mr. Titus."
"All right," was the cool remark of the
young manager, "I'll go with you in a
minute.
Then the two walked quietly down to the
Clayton House, where the matter was fully
explained. The whole thing was done so
quietly that very few people, outside of the
Initmate friends of Mr. Titus, knew aught oi
what had taken place.
The capias on which Mr. Titus wss
arrested waa lsaucd ou the oath of William
Green, formerly an Iron dealer of this city,
through II. C. Turner, Esq., his counsel,
aud is for a debt of over $700, including '
terest, against Alice Oates' Company, wli
was advanced the troupe about seven years
ugo. while performing here. At that time
Mr. Titus was the husband ef the festive
Alice, and It Is claimed that he is responsible
for the claim. Bail in the amouut ol $1,500
is demanded.
Mr. Titus when called upon by a Gazette
reporter to-day refused to make any detailed
statement about the matter,and while some
what annoyed at it, treated It more as a
Joke than anything else. "The whole thing,"
said he is larolal to talk oi holding me for
that old claim. I really have
statement to make because I know so little
about it." Walter Cummins, Esq., has
been retained as counsel by Mr. Titus, and
the impression is that the whole matter w
be satisfactorily adjusted in the course ol
to-day. Mr. Titus expects to join the troupe
iu Chicago, where it appears on Monday
evening.

At City Council's adjourned meeting last
night President Conrad presided. Mr. Gar
rett moved that the Opening Streets Com
mittee be authorized to grade Market street
from Twenty-third to the city line. The
necessity of the work was conceded, but
some doubt was expressed as to where the
money was to come from. Mr. Talley
moved the postponement of the matter until
the Opening Street Committee could
confer upon the matter. On motion
of Mr. Garrett the Street Commit
tee was authorized to advertise for
proposals for covering the 8hipley Run
sewer at Maryland avenue and Chestnut
street, to be done not earlier that April 1.
Mr. Garrett's ordinance striking out cer
tain clauses prescribing the details of the
Clerk of Council, was introduced and in
definitely postponed on motion of Mr.
Talley. Mr. Bailey, chairman of the Public
Building Committee asked permission to
purchase maps for the Clerk's office, Water
Department and Street Department, which
was refused. President Conrad announced
that the law providing that bills passed

The Middletown Transcript says: The
news of the murder of two Americans named
Biggs and McDonald, by the Indians, at
Casas Grandes, Mexico, last week, greatly
alarmed the relatives and friends of 8. R.
Biggs, formerly of this neighborhood but
now in the West. Mr. Biggs haa for some
time been one of a corps of Government
surveyors in New Mexico. Re
cently lie wrote his father, Joseph
of Cecil county, Md., that
he was about to make a long trip to the
Southern part of the Territory in company
with a friend, not, however, giving ht® In

the death of two Amerioans belonging in
