never co ojcmted with Murphy in anything heretofore, and that he poses as a chronic ob jector to everything looking to the enforce ment of the lnpior laws. A meeting of the Board has. been failed for '4 o'clock this ufteruoon, and lively times are anticipated. Police Commissioner Murphy claims 10 have been wholly misunderstood in kis sitiou 011 thv question of closing the saloons on the Fourth. "Didn't vou fell State Treasurer Coo per that the order closing saloons would be modified?" asked a rejiortvr of Mr.

Murphy to day. i "No, fr; I did not, and Mr. (ijcr will not say that I did. I gave uo diil'ercut order or no consent to different ordersfrom those ,1..,, ft. by some means the saloon men had been led to believe that tlie order closing the saloon had been rescinded.

With sixteen police oin duty, and many of them a 'siu'iied to other work, it was impracticable to attempt to close up over thnue hundred saloons." Mr. Murphy was emphatic in his denial any consent to niotliticutiou ot this order; and he said he had impressed his mint many days before the Fourth of the necessity of proclaiming the law closing the saloons 011 "the national holiday to be in force. Ajstutni ing order 011 the Commissioners' books enforcing the Jaw closing tlie saioous ion all holidays was his authority, as president of thu Bourd, to issue the prociuuiation, without culling a meeting Of the Commissioners. Some interesting and leading gossip crops out in this connection. It is said to the surprise of many that Senator McDonald, the conservative und llut footed for law lendoY of the democracy, has taken strong grounds against Mr.

Murphy tin this saloon ruestion, and Mr. Murphy is understood to have said that the only prominent democratic leader who supports him iu his efforts to enforce the whisky. naw is Vice president Hendricks; ho.it hu lieeu treneinlly supposel in! favor ol extreme liberality "and certainly not disposed to close the saloons ''inconveniently early." j.

I to it ti I TALKING ABOUT IT. AIIGUMENT IN. THE BANK CASS.

Captain Sheprd's Orx uin; Speech Ptob 1 biUty That the Pow wow Will Last All Thl Week. Argunif nt in the long drawn out bank esse began in udge Court tbi morning. The regular term of the court has been extended under the statute for the special consideration of this case, aud nothing else will come before the court until this matter is dis(oscd of. A large audience (for a Suie. rior Court trial) assembled I to hrr.r the opening address for the plain tills by Captain Shepard.

Very close attention was given the speaker, who indulged" freely iu innuendo, and at times was sea thin, if not vituperative ik characterizing certain of the witnesses ami others who iigur iu the case as may be seen Iwluw. The Captaiu's effort Ihis morning was an attempt uncover the true condition of the First National Bank, at or about. the time the defendants (Messrs. New and became the controllers of. its stock.

If Iyt history was reviewed, and the pcuker sought to show. that in bad condition at the 'tiine tic. fendaut lieeame uirchascr. He recited evi tlcnce. and claimol that Euglidi aud New hud had a'difl'crt'uce v.xvt the 'discnvVry of wrongdoing in the bank, and that 'English "read the Tiot act to New, aud finally niaile the "give or take" proposition which led.

to the purchase by Mr. New of the bank' stock. English thereupon resigns the presidency, of the bank," and, as shown by the testimony, writes, a farewell. whielri auscribed uihu the' minutes. Captain ShejKird characterized the letter a "English's pathetic valedictory." The di rcctors nf the bank thereiiiou provide that ft .1.1.

I. oii'K'nc iiK uiuoai oe prepares. inuiCAtive 01 the esteem and regard in which Mr. English is held, "The lirst hard work which th ne managers of the bank do' said, the speaker, "wo to rtduce the number' of directors. These holiest and guileless citizens, who art defendants in tlie ca, wanted to Lave the bank so they could control il, and so they reduced lie number of directors to five.

But it wiui'uiincccssary for them to ay fur the sbKkj English bays it woji'du't have been healthy for anybody to propose to pay 1 him out of the assets of the' Dank. But he' gew a credit the bank fori 140,000. Those lueu figured over the' assets of tjic bauk and counted out. what English would take. Meantime Mr.

Wright had been exhaustiuj; his patriotism iu serving the country at the arscual while railroad rioters were stopping trains at tlie dpot, aud this uccounts tor his testimony he re uieuilers so tew of the details of this a flair. But he got a furlough and came down to the bauk. aud the resolution was adopt eda uthor iing the sale of $150,000 of notes; Mr. En glisli said he wasn't there, but the record say that he was. If you would believe these gentlemen, it was the quietest afliiir that ver occurred in this community.

Nobody knew who wanted to buy tlie bunk's sets aud nobody kuew who had $100,000 of the bank's stock Which could be' bought. Some feliow just jumiK up and moved that notes to this large amount be sold. There was nobody there who wasn't interested except Bobert Browning, and the reason they didn't talk about the proposed sale was that they didn't want bim to know anything about it. That resolution was got up lor the express purpose of buying the stock of the First National Bank to hold it in trust, but they dared not put this on record. Here's a nice little concealment as a starter.

Jt was put iu the minutes thc Diore Tou look the less you. 1 1 sce pniicipie. sJir. ngiisn ooirgnt tne assets, and he gave lii check for $131,000, and to Utt tacn wc bllt declined here make the trtmu cooil lie tnves a iilimilr to produce those checks, follintr back on his rights to, his 'private At the time English sold hi stock to New there wasn't enough money in the bank to pay him for the bald credit which was given hint on the book. The bank examiner (Lynch), in his October report of 1S77, says that the bank sold to English certain assets hich were given" in part payment for his stock.

After these things happened New and Wright carried it at the expense of the bauk for themselves." Speaking of the Slaughter defalcation Mr. Shepard said: "Why didn't they (defendants) prosecute this fellow? Because, they hod to unload their stock upon somebody; aud if they1 hud publicly prosecuted the defaulter they never would have got from uuder the avalanche ot come upim ruin winch would have them. Why did they say in 'Slaughter retired the public, press that from the bank because of uncongi inaljty, they did not want to conceal lrom the jsublic the condition ol the Ana then they curried Slaughters defalcation on the books us caik 011 baud, acting under legal advice. The. tuau who gave them this advice (Hauna) is dead.

It seems that every man who received the cor rupt breath ot this bank in his face, except the Jacks inside, died, a few years afterward." The attorney analyzed the report of Bank 1 Examiner Lyuch. It was shown, in testimony that in oneof these reports (October, 1877,) the examiner reported to the Government that in assets had been soldiby the rirst National to Air. English. 1 hi wa testified by Mr. Lynch to be a clerical error.

The amount should have been $131, iH). After recalling 'this test'uuony. the stK aker declared that the examiner intended to make this clerical error. "What he got for it, 1 don't know; but what I say is that he intended to conceal from the Government the true situation. Those thing don't come about 1 by clerical omUsions.

Neither had the batik "borrowed $30,000 from Wiuslow, ijuiier A a the bank examiner reported. But it waa necessary to show the source of some of the revenue which was used in payment of stock bought by defend ants from English, and so a loan of thia kind was reported." "We introduced ina evidence Mr. Henderson, who testified that Colonel New tried to sell him the bank. He not only tried to sell the bank stock, but ottered to instruct hint in the methods of bookkeeping which defendants had learned since coming into the bank. It wasn't necessary for the purchaser to have much money.

Just pass a few resolutions, nop over account from one book to another and go "uhead. Defendants also wanted to yuload on Dr. Thompson. waa liecessary to victimize somebody," At Qoon Mr. Shepard closed that portion of his argument relating to the affair of the bunk up to the time of the sale of ita stock by defendant to plaintin's.

This afternooa he is giving attention to this latter transaction. From the vigor with which the argu, nieut open by plaintiffs it is surmised that defendants wiil unc ork their vials of wrath when their turn comes. Senator McDonald will follow Captain Shepard in behalf of defendants. I j.
