The ore was discovered about 0 o'clock by a ui^hl
watchman who slept on the fourth floor, in the rear, uu<
?who was awakened by tbe flames bursting up through i
hatchway from the room beneath. He made hi.? way t
the lower atory, but did not reach the street until th
alarm hail tn-en given by a polietwofllcer, who had dir
covered the fire from the alley behind the building. Thi
flames spread rapidly, until at 11 tbe entire re?
part of tne structure rpll. followed aKnost liumedtatelj

that the front portion of the building could lie saved
but, soon after, the flames made their appearance at tb?
sixth story window? on the Chestnut st. side. Thn effort,
of the firemen wore powerless to prevent the attei
destruction of ti?e entire building. At ISO the roof fell

The trial of Mayor Hall wan ron tinned yen
U niay before Judge CharU ? P. Daly, the morning hour
being occupied by the di?eu??lou of the objection? which
were pending at the adjournment on Monday in regard
to aaaaoaaa pal to Mr. Lyne? and going to the real
met Its af the trial. At 11:10 Mr. Lyne? took, the stand,
and Mr. I'eckbam BgaM offered the Oarvey warrant in
evidence.
Mr. Hurrill ?aid he understood that this warrant was
ofUnd to the Curt iilon? for it-* information as to
whether the vouchers en which it wa? Issued were loi-t,
and might not to lie read to the jury.
Mr. Maaajktaa argued the qu< .?tlon, citing varion?
cases.
Chief Justice Daly gave hl-< views of those ease?, hold?
ing substantially that the evidence was proper to i.'o to
the Court, audit Incoin|ietentouthc main iaaac the Court
could direct the Jury to disregard It.
Mr. B tough ton objected that evidence once heard hv
the Jury must have it? weight on them, by the constitu?
tion ol human nature, ?mithat weight would be prejit
diil.tl to the defendant. It might be easy iu a <:\il
ea^e to reniovc certain it* ins of evidence from their
mind?, but it would lie very ditlicult In this case?essen?
tially a criminal case. He suggested that the Court could
ili.-i.ii-s the Jury and hear tho ii.-i u- -.nu alone. Ha was
free to say that tbe defense took tbe gummi that no
offense wu?. charged by this Indictment.
Mr. Tnmain claimed that this discussion wa? out of
order now.
Judge Duly thought tt would lie more proiier to raise
these BJBBCtBBM after the tcstimouy for the pro se i utioii
hud closed their B1 uleii. c.
Mr. Htoughton asked how they could deiiUe what was
relevant evidence until they had ascertained the char?
acter of the i barge I
The enarl vas disentangled by Mr. Tremaln, who
eft. red the warrant for the present an only evidence to
the Court,reserving tlic right hereafter to offu' it to tho
Jury on the main Issue.
Mr. Lyne? then testified: There 1? only one kind of
w an .nit used for the payment of ull kind? of claims ; the
accounts to which i-nch warrant is to be charged are
placed on the margin of each ; these word? on the end of
tin- warrant, "County Liabilities," were used for uo
other claim? than those passing through tbe Hoard of
Audit; my -Icuat ore was out on this at the time I entered

the claimant; I get this from the indot. ement of tho

hut 1 -omctinii s made it ; I made it fi "in a glance at the
bill; I cun't tell whether In this ease Mr. Watson or 1
mude taM indorsement from which tin? particular entry
was made ; I never drew a wairiut without a voue her;
I never uiude the-o entries without a voucher and a
warrant.
Mr. Pcckham then offered iu evidence tbe book of au?
dit. Mr. BarrlU -aid ho would like to cross-examine,
and Baked :
Q. Is or Is not the record of vouchers a transi Opt from
audit book No-1 t A. It 1?.
q. Is not the audit book No. 9 made from (lie waii.mt

Q. is it uol voiir duty to till up warrant? when directed
to do so by the County Auditor I A. Ye?.
0. Wa? not the hlank called to your attention yester?
day by the cuiiuael for the prosecution, and which is
attached to the bill of the creditor?wu? not that blauk
so attached by the County Auditor I A. Ye?.
Q? It had n printed indorsement on the ouftlde t A.
Yea; aud contained blank spaces for remark? relating to
tbe bill to wliich It was attached ; there was a blank for
a .embused atatenieiit of the ebaruetor of the bill to
which It was Attached.
??. ordinarily, the ( ountv Auditor himself filled up the
blanks I A .Ye?, generally.
q. When one of tbe-sr vouchers came to you, this blank,
upon which this indorsement was, wu- the outside pa
isr 1 A. Yes, Sir.
q. Did you draw warrant? from that indorsement t A.
Ye?.
q. And In tho?e caae? you didn't examine the paper? 1
A. No?only the indorsement ; I assumed that to be cor?
rect, and made up the warruut by its ln?truction? ; I in?
serted the claim in the warrant from the indorsement.
Q. You only noticed, In a general way, what wa? the
chara? ter of the Idiiiik t A. That Is all.
q. 1/ooklng at the entrv In tho audit-honk, No. 004, have

q. Can you sav, looking at that, whether it is the right
warrant 1 A. IBB.
<?( Now, can vou ?t?te, from all your experience Id and
knowledge of these account?, whether there wa? or not
a bill or account corresponding to thut amount I A.
There waa a voucher for that amount.
Mr. Pockbam then offered in < vldence for the Jury the
warrant aud audit book. Mr. Hum 111 agulu desired to
' :.?-11 i?mine. and proceeded to do so.
q. You ?ay you tiliea up the wurraiits from the Indorse?

wairant 1 A. I know of mv own kuowledge when I made
thut up In tbe audit book that there wa? a bill witn the

q. H air. Watson had handed you blank No. 1, in?
dorsed, with the blank? on the Indorsement all tilled up,
with a lot of papers inside, would you have opened those
documenta to see what they were I A. I should leave
them at I found them.
Mr. linrrlll reiterated hi? objection to the warrant and
book, and a question theu arose as to the kind of evi?
dence it should be considered?whether secondary or
primary. A queer misunderstanding also arose m to the
n.eanlng of Judge Daly, yesterday, In designating tho
particular kind of evidence?i|ueer. because It was all on
oue aid?. The defense thought that Judge Daly meant
"preliminary" by "primarv." Judge Daly Dually al?
lowed them a? secondary evidence.
TESTIMONY OF WM. S. COPELAND.
Wm. B. Copland, Assistant Lookkcpcr under Mr.
Lynes, was next called, and detailed the routine of busl
nes? In his office; Mr. Watsou would baud the bill or
t isim to Mr. Lyues, who would examine it, and baud It
sometime? to Uic witness aud ?onetime? to other clerk?
to ?a? whether the addition? or extrusions were carried
out; then be would take it and add Interact, if any wa?
needed, ami affix the proper rrrlineales blauks? and
than baud it in to the Auditor; lu tbe cou rae of tlruc
general! v the same day-it would come back signed by
the proper authorities; then a warraut would be pre?
pared and tent to tbe Controller for Bis tignatuie, theu
to the Mayor'? otllee for hi? signature, and after that to
tbe Clerk of tbe Board of Bupervlaor? for hi? ?1 feature.
q They would go to Mr. Wataou un?igur.l aud ?ou?e

the warraut from tbe voucher, and when tbe warrant
cante hark signed it wa* entered vu tbc audit book.
q. pM yew bave aaythlnf to da wltk the niingof thoae
vouchers 1 A. Yet; I died them in till? under the desk
in th? office.
O. Did yon look at the voucher?! A. Mo?t of them.
q. How many of (he Oarvcy vouchers did you look at t
A. Nearly au.
q What papers composed the Oarvey vouchers!
Tai? was objected to on tie ground tli.it It WM an In?
direct way of getting at the content? of the voucher iu
question without proving that tbe witness had seen the
voucher.
Mr. I'ci kham tried to put the question In .lee? objec?
tionable form.
q. Do you know of nny ease where a warrant was
drawn upon the account of eouiitv liaLillt:ch. except
uI?m a claim that had been presente'! 1
Mr. Burrill ratead an objection to this qnest'on also, a?
there was an absence of proof of knowledge on the pa ft
of thi? witness In regard to this matter. None of the
entries in book No. 9 were original or eotemjiovaneou?.
I.vnes's testimony wa? clear and distinct that it WM
Dothtng hut a transcript made uot from original pap?is.
but from the audit book, and book Ho. 3 WM solely
copied from the warranf, and contains no other Informa
tion. If it was made up from tin warrant, It certainly
was no stronger than the warrant itself.
Judge Daly sad that he understood the Audit book to
be |n already, a? prellminarv e\ idence.
Mr Hurrill ?aid that in this Instance whore tbe partie?
saw the name? and ?ought to Identify in a general way
the paper? loif. when the Court ?hall have fuindthf?
particular papar in existence then it will be proper and
appropriate evidence, whether or not tbe paper ?ought
foi Is lost, hut on the evidence of the exl?tei,cc of the
paper it amounts to nothing. There Is, therefore, no suf?
ficient proof Ju this case to justify the admission of
secondary evidence even ii thi? isacasc where BrCOadar*
e\ hleuee should be allowed.
Judge Daly held that, a? a mritterof fact, the exist?
ence, identity, and loss of this paper wa? siitllclcnt to au?
thorize the ?econdair evidence of it? content?.
Mr. Stoughton tried to ward off this ?olid blow again-f
tbc defense by suggesting Hint the Court did not hold
thai secondary evidence wa? necessarily admi'.sllile, al?
though, admitted hen-, because that question liad Hot
yet been argued. Judge Daly ?aid the question
was disposed of tor all preseut purpoat ?.
AU lie decided for the present was, th.it
It was now for the prosecution to prove the nature and
cant?ate 'if these document? M far as they offer any par?
tit alar piece of evidence, aud if there was any objection
matin to its addition, tbe Court would pass" upon tbe
question, Be understood Mr. F> wain to otf>r the war
rants aa a piece of evidence tending to ?how the Batare
and content? of the account, or whatever the prclltntn
wry paper may have been prior to the Issuing of the
warrant. Thero wore three-top? In the proof (1) of ex?
istence and Ion? of document. That WM disposed of.
<2.) Proof, oral and otherwise, ot the contenta of tue
document. That was now to be given, aud {li) the effect?
or legal consequence? of Unit document.
Mr. liuri ill e.veepted tothe deci?iou a? to the suffic'.enev
of the preliminary proof, and also to tho warrant, which
wa? tires, nte.i in a double osjieet- assecondarv evidence
of the original claim and a? evidence In chief under the
?eeoud count of the iudictmeut of the payment of the
claim.
The dispute a? to what wag evidence in thief nnd
what secondary wa? disposed of by Judge Daly, who
Intimated that the evidence must Is; excluded In whole
Off admitted in whole; tln.t iPit waa found proper only
Hs secondary evidence then the Court Would properly
direct th.- jury ; aud that a? secondary evidence M waa
admissible.

TMK DEFICUOrcIEd IS THE Mtookl.YN COK
TROl.LF.lfs ACCOUNT??.
The ('oiitnillei ni Brooklyn, P. A. Bt Inotil? r,
since he entered upon the discharge of his duties, |,as
Leen oi'cupled in mustering the detail? of hi? otliee, ami
ha? made a caretal examination tit the account? of his
department. Hi? investigation? disclosed a deficiency of
?W,160 In the account? of hi? predecessor, Evan M.
Johnson. The explanation given by Mr. Johnson thai
the deficit-m-v waa due to the fa? t that tbe as?
sessment and ?ewerage lion.la | were sold at
a discount, will probably be a? un?a?i?factory
to the c.ttzeiis of Hrooklyn as tt I? to Controller flbroedei
who presented t lie correspondence on the subject to the
Common Council, a? was stated In yerrtcrduy'a Triiii'nf.
BU gave at the same time a detailed BBMCBBCM of flac''
das? of bonds, with the date of issue, aud of the amount?
returned to the Treasurer. The bond? mentioned are
known a? a?.ses?meut bond?, liearlng 7 per cent, in?
terest, ?nd haviou" three year? to run. and are
issued for sewerage purposes and for regrading and
repuirttig street?. The total amount of liouds Issued ley
Controller Johnson wa? about ??.non.non. The deficiency
is the difference bMweaa the amount of the kaada i??ucd
by Mr. Johnson and the amount of money paid by him to
the City Treasury. Mr. Johnson claim? that he had the
right to ?ell the in.nils below nar, that he did so, aud
thut the discount thn? incurred explain? the deficiency.
The Corpoiiitlon Counsel dissent? from this view, and
denle? that Mr. John?on had any auch authority.
Another ciaot of balade bearing the *?Uie rate of Interest,
having the ?ame time to run, and MO ?ame ?ecurlty,
were sold by Mr. Johnson at par. The law expressiv
provided that this das? should uot be ?old at a diMcount.
It has been ascertained that many of the bolder? of these
Masai bought them at par, and that sometimes Mr. John?
son returned par for them. The ?Controller think? tbat
it 1? very strange that Mr. Johnson should
BBBBBM of a portion of tho bond? at
??, when he wa? able to ?ell other?
of the ?ame i??ue at pax. It 1? also aTleged that while
eni/aged during three year? In selling the iionds be kept
on hand an amount avi r..gius about IBBMM Tbe defi?
ciency occur? ou the fare of the boud?. The accrued in?
terest is accounted for, or credited to the city from tho
sale, i.- i do the books of the late Controller show any
rute of discount, or contain any evidence that ditcouut?
were allowed to any one.

Inquiry ?bowed yesterday that the E'.ias gang, In?
cluding four brothers, Is beticr known to tin Petal e than
to tho mercantile agents. The ringleader. l.iin II. Otan,
who lives in splendor at the Mctroiiolituu Hotel, applied
at this otlice for an aiwlogy a year ago. i ml was recoin
mendod to go to Police Headquarter? for further infor
niailuu about hiuisiif. lie there n und him
?elf set down as the chief of tho "sawdust
swindlers," and his three brothers, of whom
Banty V.lkj 1? one, were merely his " dummies."
A v tim went to the Tomi.s, yesterday, and offered to
m ike complaint against the gang at No. M Broadway,
for swindling, aud Judge bowling W said to lie anxious
to have I hem brought Is fore hnn. The following fact* In
regard to the Ellas Brothers have been tOVOalod ?into
tho tona of yesterday :
A bOgn firm, styling its? If Mann, Morgan A <'<>., and
having an ofllte on the see..ml tlo>r of No. islumdit.,
has been for some time pMt carrying on au ingenious
system of swindling, whereby niiiniici> of noblemen ami
wealthy per'oiis of iharitablo deposition in Euriqm
ha ce bei u defrauded of large sums of money.
TI h firm Is ?imply Ellis II. Elm?, and tue sein me
which the linn claims to represent and which it adver
tlses as worthy of supi>ort is called the " Emigrant Pro?
tectory Association." Tlio emular? anmiun-e to

that the Association " has been established |.y wealthy
and charitable New-Yorkers for the pagpoM of protect?

and thieves who watch the arrival of every p.iN.seugrr
vessel from Euro|N',and who shrink from no. rime mord..
to roll the pool 1er. i gurr s m every dolls rtl.ey have in their
possession. Fr this pin pose the Protectory Emigrant
Association employs at Castle Gardeu fea trustworthy
agents, who-e sole duty it Is to furnish all m cei?;?ry n,.
formation to newly-arrived emigrants, to prevent tlo-lr
being robbed by the vultures lying in Aait fef them, and
U> conduct WOb Of them as have no money to tho hotel
and farm of the Protectory Emigrant A?-o. latiou m tim
em iietis of New-York, where the emigrant? Hud good
houid and lodging at uieiely nominal rates, and where
an oppoitiinity is given them to work ai renniiinative
wages until other employment has been provided for

us It states that tln-y are " within two miles of the <iiy

After setting forth in glowing colors all t ho ad vantage?
