THE COURTS.
Slow Headway Made in the Rapid
Transit Fights.
Argument on the Sixth end Ninth Ave
nue Railroad Injunctions Post
poned Till Next Month.
IN THE MESHES OF A DANSEUSE.
A Plea if Gnilty by Lawrence and Hi> Re
lease on Bail.
The rapid transit fight Is making alow headway In
the courts owing to the continued illness of Chief
Justice Monell, of the Superior Court, although it la
gratifying to know thai he la slowly convalescing, and
the improbability or hia being able for aeveral weeks to
resume hia seat on the bench and hear the continuation
?f the argument on the injunction proceedings instl
'tuted by tho Sixth "Avenue Railroad Company against
the Gilbert Elevated Railroad Company to restrain tho
latter company from constructing Its proposed road
over the route of tho Sixth Avenue Railroad Company,
between Amity and Fifly-n nth streets, an arrange
ment was yesterday entered Into between tbe opposing
counsel that will obviate any delay on account o(
Judge Monell's sickness anil the likelihood otherwise
of the case going over until after the summer vacation.
The arrangement made was that tbo case should he
argued on us meritsbelero Judge Sedgwick, at tho June
term or the Special Term of the Court. As
will be seen this not only expedites the
settlement of tbe main question at Issuo of
vital importance to the perfecting of rapid transit
in this city, but is a very auvantugeous arrangement,
lor, of course, whatever way the case may be decided,
It will be taken to tbe Court of Appeals, and such ap
peal could not be taken from the decision on tho
motion lor a preliminary Injunction. By trying the
case on the merits, therefore, a final determination may
bo reached much quicker than by continuing tbe war
fare of technicalities.
An argument was to have been held yesterday before
Judge J. F. Daly, holding Special Term of the Court of
Common Pleas, upou tbe order to show caui-c why the
temporary injunction grautcd against tbe New York
Elevated Railroad Company upon tbe application of
tbe Ninth Avenue Railroad Company should not be
made permanent. All tbe counsel were present except
ex-Judgo Emott, whose abscncq was urged as a ground
(or adjourning tbo argument. Somo ol the cuinsol
were anxious to linvc the adjournment flxod at an curly
day, but Judga Daly suggested that the same questions
would substantially bo raised as in the su;t or PaUuu vs.
The New York Klevated Railroad Company, now betore
the General Term on appeal from Chief Just ice Daly's
# recent decision. It was probable, he added, that tho
General Term would give lis decision by the eud ol tho
present :nontb, and he, thereloro, rcco:umended I no
adjournment of tho argument to the first Monday ol
next month, which suggestion was finally acquiescod
In by tbo counscL
CANCAN AND ITS CONSEQUENCES.
Katie Forrost, a blonde ot the purest typo, was pres
ent in Fart 4 ol the Marino Court, before Judge
McAdam, yesterday, as plaintiff In a suit brought
against Solomon Cars lor tho sum of $900, alleged to
be the value of certain articles of jewelry which she
charges htm with taking from her room at the St.
Cbarles Hotel, in this city, and converting to his own
UFO. Tbe defendant's answer Is a general denial, but,
notwithstanding this, be was in charge of a sheriffs
officer, under an order of arrest, in default of $1,200
ball. Mr. John F. llcl n tyre appeared for tbe plaintiff
and Mr. A. II Furdy lor tho deicndant, both express
ing themselves ready and willing to proceed to trial;
but owing to the engagement of Judgo McAdant in re
lation to the business of the General Term tho cause
was adjourned until one F. M. to-day. The pleadings
In themselves are us flat and umuteresting as replevin
pleadings usually are, but, Irotn the statements of the
rcs|iective counsel, it appears tho suit is not without
some romantic features. Both sines concur in the
adnmsion that deluadant is a travelling salesman of
jewelry; that he Is married to a comely bru
nette, who was present in court, and ap
parently a much nioro dissatisfied party
thau her hiondp rival in the affection's
ol tho mild-eyed Cars; that In his wanderiugs o'er
laud and lake Cars found himself in ttio city of St.
Louis, where he visited one ol tho theatres, and there
first behold tho plamtlft, flouting in the bewildering
figures of the cancan: that, forgetting his (list
love, be made the acquaintance and associated wuh
this new affinity lor about two years, keeping li s fam
ily in ignorance of bis whereabout)', and finally wind
lug up in the st. Charles Hotel in lists city, where tho
ptestnlcauscof action arose. While thus associating
with the plaintiff it appeara be made her presents from
time to tune of the jewelry which form? the subject of
tbe action, and It is claimed on her part that, antici
pating she was about to separate from him, ne took
the property irom her room without her knowledge or
consent, and appropriated it tu lus own use. Tho
claim on bis behalf is that be took iho property with
her consent, and with tbo understanding that ho
was to raiso money on it to pay their board at
the St. Cbarles Hotel, and that ho did pawn a
Crtion cf it, and that in any event ho came
vlully into possession of it. Tbe testimony ol
tbe pawnbroker, taken by convent of counsel, was mat
defendant told him be urns pawning the property to pay
plaintiff's board (mentioning her nam> ), and that ho
returned to tho St. Charles Hotel to see if tho amount
offered would satisfy her heioro he ncoepted it. It was
fqrtber stated, by touusel that defendant's wtfo pro
posed to institute proceedings against him for a divorce
according to the Jewish ritual
LAWKENCE PLEADS GUILTY.
The case of the United States against Charles A.
Lawrence, who was some time ago Indicted by a United
States grand Jnry on a charge of smuggling, ho being
then a Custom House offlccr, and with forgery, and
irho, it will be remembered, fled to Canada and tbenoo
k> England, took an unexpected turn yesterday. The
* trial had boon several times postponed, aud those fre
taent delays, together with the report, which found
ready credence, that Lawrence to save himself from
trial aad Its consequences bad made an offer rt a full
crafeaaion, which the government. It was suppoeed,
had under consideration, were taken as confirmation
of the report. Yesterdiy'a proceedings but go
to farther strengthen thia view of the ease, not wit h
itanding District Attorney Hiiss' partial explanation
of the circumstance attending [.awrenco's plea of
(Uitiy. When the case was called in the Circuit Court
yesterday Lawrenco waa present with bia counsel,
leaded by General It. V. Butler and a number of friends,
fbe court room was crowded and a great deal of Interest
ras manneated in anticipation ol thn opening of tbo
trial and what developmeuta li might bring forth. No
little surprise, however, was Iclt at the unexpected turn
tbe case look. Tho indictment upon which I<awrence
sas railed to plead la that known as tho "Blundiiig"
lorgcry, to which Lawrence pleaded gtNRv. Aftur tbe
plea bud been recorded Judge liencdict asked Mr. Bliss
IT ho moved lor sotitoncc, to winch tho District At
torney answered, "Notat present." This, lor the present,
and*tbe casa On motion of lAwretire's conusel bo
waa admitted to bail in the sum ol $1S,000. This will
appear very small bail in tbe lace of tbe fast that Law
rence ploadeu guilty to an ofl'enco tbe penalty lor which
Is ten years' imprisonment. Wheu questioned
on the sutiject District Attorney Bins said
that the acceptance of- Lawrence's plea was
tbe easiest ami best way of disposing of the
case; that there was nothing behind It, and that in due
time Lawrence will be called up for sentence. Ho fur
ther stited that Lawrencc could havo been convicted
sf smuggling Iftao other Indictments against him bad
been tried, bat tho other charges will not be pressed
igainst him. As the ca*e now stands. Lawrence is out
on small bail. And It is still asserted that tbe proba
bilities are that ha may be used as a witness should It
be thought advisable to turn to account in the proseou
tio* of others any Knowledge he may possess in that
Une. Lawrence's sentence will bo moved for at the
June term, to which lime he Is out on ball. His sure,
lies are J. J?. Morris, nnd Zipporsl, the wife of Law
rei.ee.
THE CITT8 FLIMSY DEFENCE.
li May, 186&, Benjamin Wood leased to the city for
ten years, at aa annual rental of $9,000, the secocd
tad third floors of No. 19 Chatham street, the same
kelag occupied by tbe City Inspectors Department part
ll tha time and tbe rest ol the time by tbe Board of
Assessors. Tbo last two quarters' rent ol lost year
Comptroller Green relosed to pay, on the gronnd that
iuring that year some of Mr. Wood's employes slept lu
tbe rear room on tbe second floor. He also refused to
pay 11,400 due upon tbe lease tor heating tbo
rooms. Mr. Wood assigned hie claim to Jacob K.
Oakley, who brought suit lor the amount claimed,
which waa tried yesterday before Judge Van Brunt, of
the Court of Commou Pleas. The defence, as slated
above, was regarJed as too flimsy to he entitled to any
judicial cr uslderation, aad Judge Van Brunt directed u
verdict.'-.-tbo plain 110 for $6,091 18, being tho lull
amount claimed, with interest.
FLIES FROM SENTENCE.
The trial of William Kelly, on a chargo of illicit dis
tilling. was resumed yesterday, before 'Judge Benedict.
Kelly bavlag beea abseat on TuesJsy, but attending
featerday on aotico from tbo Court At the conclusion
?l tbe casa tbo jury rendered tho verdict of guilty,
ind it was then found that tbo defendant ban disap
peared. It is sapposed that lie formed the opinion
.hat the case woula po against h|in, and thai during
l|ie basils attradlug Lawrence's |>lca be escaped. Hit
M*dsmea are Thomas Gannon, oi No. 25 OIJ flip,
and Daniel McKlbeany, of No. 331 West Fifty Oflb

DECISION IN EQUITY. ?
In the mattar of tba complaint in tba bill In aqaity
of John H. Piatt, as sssignoe ia tbe estate In bank
ruptcy of 8. Leland ft Co. against Edward B. Weslsy,
Judge Blatchford, in tba United States District Court,
has rendered tba following decision:?I am not pre*
pared to bold on tba eel donee that tbe payments by tf.
Inland * Co. of tba checks la question as they fell due
wore payments made with a view to give a preference
10 tbe defendant as a creditor, as alleged ia tbe bill.
Nor, even III could so bold, could I find on the evidence
that tbe defendant at tbe time of receiving such pay
ment} bad reasonable cause to believe thst snch pay
ments were made In fraud of the provisions of tha
statute, or reasonable cause to believo that a fraud on
the statute wns intended thereby. Nor can I bold on
tbo evidence that such payments' were not made In tbe
usual and ordinary course of business of the debtors.
It seetus to me that tbe observations or tbe Supreme
Court In Tiffany against Lucas (15 Wallace, 410) apply
to tbe facts o( this case. Tho bill is dismissed, witn
costs.
REVERSES OP FORTUNE.
Ex-Senator and County Coart House Commissioner
Michael Norton waa examined In supplementary pro
ceedings before Justlco McAdam, of tho Marine Court,
yestorday, in relation to a Judgmont for $621 obtained
against him by Isaao J. Oliver, tbe Tammany printer.
Tbe ex-Senator testified that ho was not worth a cent.
Counsel for the plaintiff asked hitn If he had over owned
anv real estate, and Norton replied in tho affirmative.
He was tnen asked when he parted with tbe owner
sblp ol the property, to which question his
couusel vehemently objected, clashing that It
was irrelevant. Tbo question was ullowod by tbe
Court on the conditio;! that should the witness
answer that he received but a small consideration for
tbo property tho lino of cross-examination should not
be continued lurtber. Ex-Senator Norton then testi
tbat bo sold bis house in Charlton street in 1871 lor a
very small consideration, the purchaser assuming the
responsibility of a mortgage of $u.t)00, which was on
tbo property at the time. Ho also trstitied thai tho
Pavilion Hotel, on Coney Island, and tbo wine and
billiard saloon corner of Bleecker and Carmine streets,
are both owned by the separate estate of his wife,
Mary Ellen Norton, and that be receired a weekly
salary ol $25 lor managing them.

AN ORATORICAL THIEF.
William Newman, an old sailor and an incorrigible
tlilsf, was brought up In tbo Special Sessions yesterday,

of iino,'' suecciwled4n talning himself ont of the scrape.
When he ?*?* r*IM <>n lor an explanation yesterday lie
began, "'Most Honored Judges, Allow me to vindicate
my cause." He tlien proceeded to demonstrate hia
lunoceui e by nsrertln* that the shoes were on the star
board "idti ol ihe door, while he was on the port side.

A COUNSELLOR CONQUERED.
!? the Court of Special Sowiom yesterday I.aurenee
Hughes, of No. 230 East Fortysixth street, charged
Terence O'Biien, a relative of Ins vile with assaulting
him Mid breaking three of his rib*. The prisoner
claimed to hsvo acted in self-defence, and when the
plaintiff was being cross-examined h* refused or failed
to give responsive answers to the questions s-knl him,
entering into lengthy explanations. At length the fol
lowing colloquy occurred:?
CodMlLUJI?Thern, that will do. You have answerod
tho question "Yes" and you noed not say any more.
Mr. Huohks?Sure au' what am I licnt for ?
CofNKSLLon?To lie ofotis-examined by me.
Mr. Huoitics?You're very much mistaken. I'm here
to tell tho truth and I'm going to do it.
At thla reply tbcro was a roar of laughter In the
court, In which the Bench Joined, and Counsellor Price
said:?"You may step down, sir."
O'Brien was lound guilty and flnod $100, which he
paid.
THE PRICE OF A JUSTICE.
When tbe case of John Hlgglns, a young man charged
with assaulting a negro on a Mott Huron train, was
called up in tho Court of Spnoial Sessions yesterday,
Judgu Murrav said, "U Mrs. Hlggins In court?" Mrs.
Hlgglns, an honcat looking old Irish woman, eatye for
ward, when tho Judge said, "Mrs. lliggins. you oame to
my house this morning and oflcrod uio $6 If I would
discharge your son. What made you do so?"
Mrs. Biggins In reply said, "Well, Judge. I didn't
mane to offend ye, but I uaderstand that that used to
be tbo price, and I didn't know thoro was any changa"
Judge Murray said, "Well, your sna is remanded for
a week In order to glvo tbe complainant a chance to
appear against him."
A DESPERATE THIEF.
William Farley, alias "English Xed," ono of tho most
notorious and ex|iert pickpockets in the city, was caught
plying his vocation ut yesterday's umtinoo performance
of Howes k Chushing's circus at the foot ol Houston
street, Kasl River. An ofllcer of the Eleventh |>re<'.ii|ci
grabbed him, hut ho succocded in slipping from his
grasp by leaving his coat In tho hand.- of his would i>o
captor. He lied up Houston street, hotly pursued by
on exoited crowd, aud effected his escape. Quite a orfln
motion was created in the circus by the struggles of
tho thief to iroe himself. Tho olllocr received a (cw
bruises and a black eye.
FUCHS, THE MURDERER.
It is generally believed in official circles of Brooklyn
that the county will not be put to the expense of hous
ing Andreas Fuehs, the convicted murderer of William
Simmons, win) h un^'er sentence ol death. Yesterday
bis counsel, H. B. Kimiboru. proceeded to Albany tor
tho purpose ot obtaining a commutation of sentenco ol
Fuchs lo Imprisonment lor life. The assent of all but
one or the Jurors who sat on tho trial has been obtained
to tho petition wbich is to bo presented to tho Uov.
ernor. It is understood that no objection will bo made
by District Attorney Brttton to tho eflorts of counsel in
behalf of the wretched man. Justice Pratt and Associ
ate Justices McKlbben and Wollort are favorable to this
dispositi<*n of the ekM. Several influential citir.cns
have taken an interest In tho case, and thus fnr Sheriff
Daggett lia.s taken no measures to prepare tor the exe
