TITE COURTS.
A Universal Reformer's Individual
Iinpecuniosity. *
INTERESTING BANKRUPTCY CASE.
The Affair* of the Manufacturers and
Builders' Bank.
* Among those who hare given much titue end labored
latollectuat effort to the subject ul reform in this city,
as well a* all oror the world, Is Gustav Kirscbman.
Ever Since tbe first crack or the Corporation "Ring'g
was hoard he has beau constantly at work preparing
documents, making suggestions aud counselling, when
ever be could gel an occasion, with all tho lawyers
prominent In the work 01 municipal reiormation, in
cluding Messrs. O'Couor, Tlltlen, Porter aud 1'eckbnm.
True, he aid uot always have llie sntlsluctlou ol seeing
bis suggestions carried out, but all who know him are
satisfied it was not (or any want or earnestness on his
part, and, in bis judgment, tbc loss lias been irre
parable to tbc city aud tbo world, {jut whilo
devoting bis ttino to great public rei'ortns it seems
bis efforts for sell-coinlori and existence bad
sotuowhat slackened. Yesterday lie was onllod upon
to appear beioro Judge McAUuin in tho .Murine Court
to dciuud proceedings taken to dispossess linn Iroui the
little apartments bo and ins wile have occupied lor
about two years past at No. Pi Walker street. The
owner is Samuel Pmlllps, und he charges through bis
ngeul that tbc term ut Mr. Kirscbman ended on the
1st ol tins .May, but that ho holds over aud retime* to
give up possession. Mr. Kirschuinn Ueleudetl ins ow n
suit, putting in au affidavit incomprehensible to ordi
nary shallow minds, lie placed his title l.ir back of
tile ownership ul the premises by Mr. Phillips, bill
unfortunately did not have the documents to salisly the
Court on that point. For the luck ul legal documents
be evidently itueuUed to niako up in the elaborate affi
davit which lie prepared and submitted lo the Court.
A specimen ol us lucid and loreibio allegations is as
follows:?"Hy lb Use citCUineluijCcs as Ibis declared
victim lor tu.ni auu country, Gustuv Klrschman, being
duly swoi i], Miys thai he is the person sued as ten
ant in me proceedings herein named, and deponent
denies that lie holds over or tliat bis term lias expired,
and delendant denies oncb ami every allegation, and
the affidavit ol John V. dnnlli, agent ol ibe above
named landlord, in opposition ol tins complete con ire
ol justice in controversy, tint el utlii vox jmpuli juxticM,
as declared herein //ro bono publico, qui nop Uat i/ui
non hahet" The Judge decided uguinst him, but
stayed the issuing of the warrant uutil uuuduy next,
wiib inn assent of the landlord. Kirscbman loll me
court room suying lie would uo tho best he could, t ho
results may leave him homeless aud hungry, tun, per
haps. lull it is doubtiul ll they can uiuko the poor Id
low unhappy er awake him Irutu Ins contused dreams
ol a universal roioriuatiou
BANKRUPTCY law.
Ccrtalu creditors of tho bankrupt Dim of H.
>Vronknw k Co., on Jttnuury U, 1SV7, filed r. potitlon in
bankruptcy ngulnst them in this district. Hermann
Wronkow. ono of tbo partners, resides in New York
ctiy, and Thomas G. Koran, the other purtuer, resides
In Culllornin. The bankrupt Wronkow buys their
goads in this market and the other bankrupt Hognn
cells them tit California. A rtcolver was appointed
who took possession of tnc stock at .San Francisco.
The debtors were adjudicated bankrupts and then
offered n composition ol twenty cents on the dollar,
and in addition they proposed that their real estate
should remain tbo pioporiy ol ibo creditors. Three
object iou? were raised to the composition by opposing
creditors:?
h'irst?iuat litis District Court hits never acquired
Jurisdiction, for the reason tbut the debtors' business
was conducted in Culilorniu, aud ono of the debtors
resided there.
Second?that the proposal ol the Jebiort was not in
money, auu, ibt-ruiore, prohibited by the Uunkrupt
acu
Third?That tho composition proceedings should
not be proceeded with until the ab-cul debtor liognu ;
uppournd ut the composition meeting aud submitted 10
uu examination. .luugu Ulatch lord bas overruled
these objections. M. H. Kegeusberger appeared lor
the assignee aud peiillobing creditors. Messrs.
Dlumensilel, Goodman, tlrowu, Fiero aud Wtlcoxen lu
support ol' tUo objections.
THE MANUFACTURERS AND BUILD

ul the Circuit. William A. Duller, tho receiver oiihe

on notes amounting to about *4,000. it appeared in
testimony on the trial tbat the notes were made as an
accommodation lor a Irieud ol 1'byie (Mr Byrnes), ut
Ibe rcijuosl ol Mr. Davidson, the late president ol tbe
bunk. VVbatMr. Davidson appears lo have said was
tbut II Mr. l'liyle would make the noios be |
would never hear of ihctn again. This, it was
:iuiuiod l>y Mr. William Strauss, counsel for de
tenu int. was equivalent >o giving an accommodation j
note to the hank, aud tbe latter t onld not enforce pay- !
muni. Jud.u Douunuu bold, however, inul Mr. Duvid
son s language umounted to nothing more tbau au ex
pression ol conlldenco ibal Mr. Byrnes, who was
petiiug the accommodation ul the notes, would lake :
cure ol ibein, and in (bis way Mr. 1'Uyio would never I
hear ol tiiein again. Testimony wus ulso given on tbo ?
point us to w bother tho i.uuk liud actually paid away ttio
proceeds ol the notes, it being elaiiued lei the dcfenco j
that it went lo make good (he account ol ilyrh s, |
ulrea ly wituurawu. The Judge held the lest.ninny to .
be sufficient lo hold ibe inukor ol (be notes, and on
Immunol Mr. Bright, eouusel lor tbe receiver, gave !
Judgment in bis tuvor.

HOMX oy GOLDSMITH MAID, LADY THORN,
LUCY, JAY OOULD, UEMXRAL KNOX, TATTLER,
SOCHATE8 AND MAST OTHER CELEBRATED
TROTTERS.
Probably do two tneo IB the country hare doue more
to encourage and improve the breed ot trotting horse*
than Air. Robert Houuer and Mr. Henry N. Smith, of
this city. Men of wealth, they originally made u pur.
cliasc or two or Inst stock as a source ot recreation
and pleasure. Purchase followed purchase until the
animals had so accumulated that each found it
necessary to buy property and establish stock farms.
Mr. Bonner bought the King ol the Tort, Dexter, and
Mr. Smith secured the Queen, Goldsmith Maid. Mr.
Bonner bought Edward Everett, Pocahontas. Peerless
and Flutbtish Muid; Mr. Smith purchased Jnv Gould,
Lady Thorn, Lucy and Rosalind. Both nave spent
fortunes >u the accumulation of flue stock and the
establishment of stud lurms, and t?-Jny the two places
are celebrated lor lbs number aud quality ot the
animals.
Home time since the Hxhald published s list ot
Mr. Uouncr's horses, and now, as a companion piece,
g:ros those belonging to Mr. Smith, which will prove
all t lie store Into resting at this tlino, owing to the
near approach of the nnuual sale or that gentleman's
yearling*, which lakes place eu the 14tb ot June.
Mr. duiitli'a property, the Fashion Stud Karin, Is
situated one mile irotn Trenton, K. J., and borders on
the line ol the N'ew Tork and Philadelphia Railroad,
about equidistant Irom Now York aud Pniludeiphlo. 11
comprises 140 uciesul grouud, tins telegraph < on noc
uous with the outside world, au excellent mile track,
judges1 and a grand stand, the latter a well built and
commodious structure; e sale ring, Iblrty-elx lingo
paddocks, tiro stables, two ol which nro 200 loot iu
length, and one ot duo, with roomy box stalls, shelter
ing about 100 horses. As the slock Increased In num
bers changes und improvements wero necessitated,
and the farm so grow in proportions mat Us owner?n
busy mau ol tbe world, with other pursuits to occupy
his time?found it impossible to givo it that intention j
that lis magnitude required. Consequently, tome |
mouths Slueo ho associated with hunsclt .Mr. G. li. !
Lcuvitt, under whoso care aud ulteutiuu to details and ,
thorough system, It Sourisued like a green bay treo,
und the grouud* and stuck, all In perfect order and
condition, attest the wisdom of his choice. Much of
tli.s is also due 10 Mr. J. P. Gilbert, a horseman of
ripe e.xperiouce, who has earned tbe reputation of
being un able trainer ana one of the best conditioners
ol horsos in tue country.
It ib beyond tlio c unpn-s of a nowspaper article to
describe lu doiull the famous animals that have their
home at Fashion Rind Farm. .Such an article caunoi
do justice to sue!) worid-renowued horse* as Jay
Gould, Lady Thorn, Lucy, Rosalind und a score of j
others, whose speed aud prowess liuve indelibly fixed |
their usrnes lu brightest churucter* upon the annuls of '
the turf. Therolore it cursory view ol the subject, ,
with a complete list of the slock, is all thill It is pus- |
stole to give.
For tbrcn animal* Mr. Smith paid about 1100,009. I
One of this trio, Jay Gould, stands ut tbo bead of tho I
Fa-luon'? harem, u king among horses, tliut in one '
season on tho turf made u record ol 2:21 jj. uud never
once lowered his color* to u competitor. Before being
trained and entered lor ruoc* be made two or three j
seasons iu the stud In the Bust, and lurt yctir the llrst j
ono of his produce over trutned and trotted, with one I
exception, was the roiunrkuhle und very handsome 1
young horse King Philip, thai at the early age ut six j
years made as sudden aud almost as famous a reputu- |
tton as bis sire, trotting with little handling and hue !
In ilic fall, ut Flsotwood Park,*ln 2:29V In October 1
Inst Jay Gould, Jr., by Jay Uocld, won a race lu Wis- i
cousin, trotting u liltb heat In 2:40 During tnoso i
seasons iu the stud Gould also got Brigbaui, a lull j
brother to King Philip; the Dean lllly, owned by Mr.
Frank Dean, ol Full River, Mass.; Champion,, the prop
erty of Colonel Raymond H. Berry, of Bristol, R. 1.,
aud A. J. Davis' filly, all or which are very promising,
and now in truinlDg by Mr. Gilbert at tbo Fashion, aud
oue uow being trained by Dau Mace, ol this c.ty. None
ol Gould's produce, siuco he was put Into tlio stud by
Mr. Smith, are yet old enough to race, though there
are a number of promising two and ibrcc-ycar-olds lu
New Jersey uud Pennsylvania. That Gould is destined
to take a front rank as a sire tboro is uo room lor
doubt, and such should naturally prove the case when
bis conformation, his breeding and his spaed are con
sidered.
Next to Gould among the aires at tbe fashion stands

to do as much good in tho inturo as be has done in the
past. As the siro of Lady Maedo and Camors, both ol
which have records faster thau 2:20, his reputation as
a successful sire of trotters is tlrmiy established, while
a bust of other sous arid daughters that have made

old ouo-oyt d hero. Tbu other stallions ate Socrates,
Tattler, Gossip and General Washington. Socrates is
