A justice of the peace of Bockland County deposed to tbe affidavit made before bim by Maggie Johnson referred to in her second affidavit and to the effeot that tbe said affidavit was read to her before she algned it. The affidavit made by the said Maggie Johnson In November, 1889, In which abe deposed that various efforts bad been made by different persons to get her to leave tbe service of Mrs.

Barber and tho off era of monoy whloh aha received. Mrs. Sybil Walker, of Classon avenue, deposed in contradiction of the allegation that Harroid walked in the room adjoining the court room while the trial was in progress and that she waa in the room. John H. Van Seeklen, of Brooklyn, who spent two Bummers in Bockland Coanty.daposed to frequent visits to Harroid, and to his helpless and weak condition.

At tlmea he Buffered so that be Oould not converse that he saw Harroid when taken to ride he was sitting tn the. back eeat bolstered np with pillows and suffering great pain neighbors and friends were welcome to visit the house. James H. Mead of No. 139 Myrtle avenue, depoaed that ha boarded with Mrs.

Barber at Nanuet Harroid wae very ill and moved about with difficulty and suffered great pain. Deponent's wife corroborated her nsband's statement she rememberod tbe colored servant, Maggie Jpbnson, and saw her fraquentlylrub tho plaintiff's limbs and beard her express great sympathy. Mrs; Annie Burroughs, wifo of Lieutenant Burroughs, of the United States Navy, and sister of Mrs. Mead, and who also boarded at Nanuet with Mrs. Barber, depose to the Bame effeot as Mrs, Mead.

Anna J. Byokeman, who also resided in tho family at Nanuet, also corroborated the statements of the two last named deponents. Mrs. Mary E. Barber, elBter ot Harroid, deposed as to what her brother's physical condition was previous to the accident, that he was strong and well: that since the accident he has been very ill and suffers greatly in bis aide, bock and legs and cannot move about save with great difficulty that she has never known him to do any labor of any kind since be waB injured that she does not know Mrs.

Rockwell, and never spoke or rode with her or spoke to her about Harrold's condition that she knew the girl Maggie Johnson, who told her that certain persons were trying to get her away, and wero offering her large wages also that deponent had seen Maggie Connors, who said tha affidavit made by her was not as she had stated it; that when tbe plaintiff was removed to Nyack, the plaintiff suffered greatly, and they were hours In going six miles; also, never employed Forshay to pick apples, or knew that Harroid was in the orchard that Harroid did no calclmlnlng, and that the affidavit of the girl Johnson Is absolutely false as to that matter. Other allegations as to Harrold's activity were denied by tbe deponent. That persons who wore not known were excluded from the premises by direction of plaintiff's counsel beoause the house was watohed by spies that since this motion doponent's German servant had been approached by persona who attempted by intimidation to prooure from her an affidavit against Harroid. The affidavit of Dr. Jonathan T.

Deya was road, in which he denies the allegations of A. Malmont, or that be held any of the Interviews alleged by Malmont It was absolute and unqualified denial of the allegations made by Malmont in reference to the case, or the conversations alleged, and deolarlng Malmont's allegations were fraudulent, false and porjurod that after the trial Malmont came to deponent's office? and asked if Harroid bad not been previously injured by a fall from a scaffold that deponent subsequently was told of some conspiracy in reference to tho csbo, in which Malmont was concerned. Deponent waa informed of tbls plot by Fisher, who was Instructed to keep in with Malmont, and that the eobenie was abandoned by reason of Mal out's becoming frightened; also, that Malmont's reputation was baa, and that he is, in deponent's belief. In tbe employ of the Third avenue Elevated Railroad. A.

H. Dalley deposed to the part Malmount was play lug In tbe case as set forth by Deyo. Albert Mennet, wholesale merchant of New York, deposed aa to Malmount's employ by the Elevated Railroad Company alto that Malmount'a reputation is bad also that Malmont admitted to deponent that ho was "working a racket" on tho Harroid case for money, and out of which ho expected to make money. Mr. Chauncay Shaffer, of oounsel for the defonso, deppsed to Malmont' action lu the oase that Fisher brought to' deponent's office a paper which Malmont had brought to him to sign and out of whloh they could make money, as It would break Deyo's testimony.

Another long affidavit by Mr. Sldera Chaae in reference to Mr. Roberts was read in whioh deponent said Roberta had no difficulty In seeing Harroid and that he, Roberts, acknowledged that he thought Harroid very ill. Aa this report doses the reading of affidavits by the counsel tor Harroid is still in progress. The argument will be adjourned until another day.

SHOT HIMSELF. Attempted Snicide in. Prospect Iarlit. What Looked at First Like a Suspicious Case How William Burn Kecelvod the Intelligeneo that his Son had Shot Himself and was at Death's Door. The attention of Patriok Irwin, one of the' keepers at Prospeet Park, was directed yesterday afternoon to a young man who lay bleeding and apparently helploss on a grass plot by the lake, and opposite Cliff Bridge.

Tho keeper went to the spot and found tho yonng man elttlng'down witb one of bis gaiters off and Buffering from a wound tn the right temple, from which he was bleeding profusely. He was about 30 years of age, was five feet eight Inches In height, of Blight bund, fair complexion, brown hair and eyes, and was dressed inablaoksult of diagonal pattern, white shirt and collar and wore gold sleeve buttons. He was sitting only a few yards from the water's edge. He seemed to be in a stupor, and Eoeper Irwin and Officer Kessler had some dlfileulty In bringing him to the Park 8tation House, where be soon reoovered consciousness and said in response to tbe inquiries of tbe keeper that his name was W. H.

Burn, and that he lived at No. 743 Downing street It was Bubsequently ascertained that, although he had glvou his corroot name, he had not given his resideuco, and 'that he had lived with his father, William Burn, at Ho. 540 Fulton street. A earryall having been secured aa soou as possible, the injured mau was takon to tho Long Island College Hospital, when It was fouud that be was SUFFEIiINO FBOM A BULLET WOUND, and that tbe chances of his rocovery were exceedingly slim. The physlolans iu attendance had some difficulty in arousing him so as to be able to gel Ins acoount of tho shooting.

Ho told several dirferent stories. Oao story was that he had been struek by a derrick at Rockaway, another that bo bad been sbot while passing through Poarl street, and still another that he had sho: himself. There does not seem to be any doubt that the last is the corroot story, and that the young man sat down near the lake In the park and deliberately fired the bullet in bis temple and then threw the pistol Into tho water. From the character of the wound it is supposed tho ball was of twenty two caliber. As soou as the Injured man was removed to the hospital Eeepere Irwin and Hyuos made a special report of the ease to Colonel John Y.

Culyor, the chief engineer, who in turn notified the police of the facts. It was not. however, until late last night that the identity of the would be suicide was positively fixed and his family communicated with. His father, Win. Burn, a German, is a palntor.

dolug business at No. 540 Fulton street, and the family occupy apartments up stairs. At 11 o'clock last night Coptain Rellly, of the Elovonth Precinct, who was in charge at Police Hoadquartors, sent word to Mr. Burn that his son bad been badly injured and that he would like bim to call round. Officer Raid, of the headquarters squad, was tha bearer of the message, and broke the sad news to Mr.

Burn In as dellaate a manner as possible. The sympathetic officer was thunderstruck at the manner In which the fathor received the first Intelligence of his son's shocking act aud the prospoatof his death beforo morning, "I am glad of It," he tbundored out. "I thought he would do it. I hope he is dead." Sueh were aomo of his expressions of glee as ho walked with Officer Reid to hoadquartors, whoro ho repeated tho same language in the presence of Captaiu Rellly and other police attacbes. "I hope he will not get better," ho said "US WAS AN INFEHNAL SCOUNDREL.

ThlB son of mine hn3 ruined me In my business, I never could tell whore I stood, for he went round collecting bills and appropriatirg tho monoy. Oh, I'm glad there is an ond to this." Whilo the fathor was thus giving vent to his feelings his eyes flashed and ho pounded tbo railings with his olenched flat. Captain Iteilly asked him if ho had any doubt as to hia son shooting himself and he said be bad not, although be was never known to have a pietol. "He collected," eaid the father, "eome of my money this morning, and ho may havo bought tho pistol with it." Said Dotoctlvo Loouoy, who had just rotumod from tho hospital and loarnod that thore was no hope of saving young Burn's life "You will uot bo troubled auy moro by your eon if you want to see him, you had bBtter go to the hospital to uight." 'No, exclalmod the ludignaut father, "I won't go, not if it was to savo him let him dio the sooner the better and (this as ho waa going away) mind this, I don't want to have his body brought to my house I won't bury it." A moro surprising exhibition was nevor wltncssod at headquarters. It seems that youuu Burn has givon bis father groat deal of trouble.

Time and time again ho collected money and used it in dissipation, so that hia father was seriously embarrassed on moro than oue occasion. About Blx months since hi: arrest was determined on, but at the last moment bis. father relsuted, and the erriug son made a column promise of reformation to Dslcctive Rigfl, who was armed with the warrant tor his srrett It is said that he had become involved in r. love surr.po and also had au Infatuation for bettincr on hoi co races, and that most of the money which ho obtained, right or wrong, found. Its way Into tho pool box and seldom or never returned Into hie own pocket.

Ho left his homo about 9 o'clook yesterday morning, and it 1b not known whoro he spent tho Intervening four or five hours until he was found in the park. Tho bonso curgson at the Long iBlaud' Collego Hospital reports that there is no change In his condition to day. VITAL STATISTICS. Weekly Report of OirtiiH, ITlurrtacen and IJoatln In (IiIn VHy.

COLLINS' LASTSRa. Tbe Annual Pleasure Trip of tlie ff.aw renco F. Carroll Association. The Lawrence F. Carroll Association of the Fourteenth Ward gave their annual excursion yesterday.

Tbe affair was partly private, as only tbe Jmme diato friends of tho members oould procure tlokets, which were $3 eaoh. Tha steamer Only Sou put into the North Fourth (treat dock shortly beforo 9 o'clock and within half an hour it was filled with ploaaure seekers. At 10 o'clook the boat steamed out luto midstream and headed for College Point, the scene of the day'a festivities. During tbe sail some of tho company danced and others amnsed themselves in various ways. After disembarking the excursion proceeded to Donnelly's Boulevard Grove, where dancing was oondaoted for a few hours, after whloh dlnner was announced.

When ample justice had been done the meal the festivities were resumed and were kept up until the steamer's whistle warned them that it waa time to start for home. The North Fourth street dook was reached In a seasonable hour. The arrangements were admirable and were in oharge of tbe President William J. Staple ton, assisted by appropriate committees. Amotig thcee present were Lawrence F.

The Commissioners of Charities Give the Tract Society Permission to Reappoint him Why Mr. Tan Sielen Voted in the Negative. At tr regular meeting of the Commissioners of Charities and Corrections this morning a resolution was adopted giving the Brooklyn City Mission and Traat Society permission to reappoint tho Rev. Job G. Bass as ohaplain of tho KingB County Penitentiary.

Since the withdrawal of Mr. Base from that Institution very strong pressure lu bis behalf has been brought to bear on the commissioners. Several churches havo tjlkcn up his cause, and ex Supervisor Herman and Mr. George H. Fisher havo made personal appeals to the board.

No attempt has been made to justify Mr. Bass in the courso be pursued, or to show that the commissioners treated him unfairly, the reverend gentleman's iudlscretion being frankly admitted, and promises of good behavior in the future belug made by those who desired to sea him go bask to the Penitentiary. At the meeting this morning some business of a routine obaracter having been transacted, Commissioner Kiesam offered the following resolution C0MMI8SI0N2B KISSAM'S RESOLUTION. Resolved, That tbe Brooklyn City Mission and Tract Society bo and it la hereby permitted iu tbo exercise of its judgment and discretion to reinstate tbe Rev. Job G.

Bass ob chaplain at tho Kings County Ponltoutlary and that the elerk of this board forthwith notify said of their resolutiou. In advooating the adoption of tho resolution Commissioner Klssam said In offering this resolution, Mr. President, I desire to aay but a few words. I think that this board is acting wisely in adopting tbe resolution asking tho society to withdraw the Rev. Mr.

Bass aa chaplain. Under the facts as they thon oxlsted this board could not well have done otherwise. If matters stood now as they stood then I should not favor tha adoption of the resolution offered. Since that time, however, a number of the ehurohes throughout this olty through the congregations have expressed a desire for Mr. Bass' reinstatement, upon the ground that his long services as chaplain bave particularly fitted him for the position.

This seonis, also, to be tho feoilng generally among Protestants taklugan active interest in church matters. While I believe that due deference should be paid to the wishes and desires of those actively Interested lu ehurch matters that ia itself would not induce me to offer and support tbe resolution had we not had positive assurance as to the future courso of the Rev. Mr. Bass as chaplain. Wo have boon waited upon by ox Supervisor Herman, George H.

Fisher, aud tho Rev. Mr. Smith (gentlemen whom I highly esteem), reora sentlng the churches aud Mr. Bass, and they hare aelcd bis reinstatement. There has boon no attempt on their part to justify tho actions of Mr.

Bass or condemn the oourse of the commissioners on the premises. His reinstatement is asked upon the ground of hi past services, and with the positive sssurance that bo has not at any time wilfully violated tho dlsciplino of tbe Penitentiary and that in the future ho will not do so. Mr. UasB Is an old gentleman aud has spent many years of his life in laboring among eonvlots, I have no doubt his removal was A SEVERE BLOW to him. and one from whloh he might never recover aud will prove a lasting lesson under all the ciroumstaucea of the case.

1 am disposed to give him anotbur obanco knowing that If wo err tn doing so we have this remedy, viz: That of a prompt romoval at all tlmos lu our hands. I movo you tbe adoption of the resolution. Com. Van Siolou I think we wore right in asking for tho removal of Mr. Bass.

I seo no reason why I should change my position In the matter. I think the Rev. Mr. King ie doing excellent work, and I do not feol that I am prepared to vote for Mr. Bass' reinstatement.

The resolution was adopted Corns. Klssam and Ryan voting in tho affirmative and Com. Van Slolen votiug lu the negative. At tho close of the meeting Commissioner Van Siolen in conversation with an Eagle reporter, said that he had no feellug whatever against Mr. Baes.

He simply thought that his reappointment would not be a good thing for tho Penitentiary. It would bo regarded by tho convicts as a vlotory for Mr. Bass aa against the wardeu, though tho latter would oare nothing about tho matter so long as the ohaplain minded hla own business. He (the commissioner) olalmed, however, to bo In a position to judge of the advisability of letting Mr. Bass go back again, and In aplte of promtsea of good behavior he seriously doubted the.

wisdom of such a course. MONEY SIARKEr. Wall Stbket, July 193 P.

Masarln. Tho defendant claims relationship with the great cardinal. The parties were married In Marseilles, France, in 1863, and have bad three children, all of whom are living. The defendant is a niarluer, and In 1871 he told his wife that he was going on along voyage and woald os away a year. He was away three years, during all whloh time his wife never heard of bim' and received from bim no support for herself or family.

In September, 1874, be returned and told a strange story of shipwreck and capture by savage tribes, aud pointed to the ecari of wuuods received in his repeated attempts to esoape. In tbe meantime bis wife's aunt had loft her a small fortune, and tbe defendant was content to stay at home for whole year in order that hia shattered health might be restored. He induced bis wife to invest htr money lu business, of which he took the control. In August, 1875, he sold out the business unknown to his wife, pocketed the proceeds and disappeared with hie eldest child, a boy of 12. When the plaintiff was penniless and almost in despair a distant relative died and bequeathed her one half of ble property, thua plaoiug her In easy circumstances for the rest of her life.

Time passed ou and she heard nothing of ber absent husband and child. In 1878 she met by ahance a former shipmate of her huBband, who Informed her that Mazarin was keeping a sailors' boarding house In New York. Mrs. Mazarin, satisfied that the information was correct, came bitber aud mado inquiries. She learned that in 1870.

when Mazarin made a voyago to this country, ho became acquainted with a widow, namod BenBtrom, who kept a sailors' boarding plaoe across the river. He promised her marriage, representing bimself as a widower. He returned home and in 1871 Btartod again for thlB country and married the widow. At the end of three yeors he felt an unconquerable desire to visit his old home and concocted a story to deoeive his New York wife, telling her that au uncle bad left him eome property and 1)0 was anxious to find out all about It. Ho returned homo once more, and after robbing hie wife departed for New York with the spoils and bis son.

When Mazarin learned that his wife had come hither to prooure a divorce from htm, he fled, and is believed to be in Chicago. As soon as Mrs. Mazarin has procured ber divorce ahe Intends to return to France and let her husband pursue his own course. Counselor A. P.

Hlnmau represents the plaintiff. Way William Harvey Was Sentenced to the Penitentiary. The youthful William Harvey snatched two pooketbooks and ran. He was oaptured and indicted and pleaded not guilty. While he lay in jail ho became slok with smallpox.

Ho was removed to the hospital aud recovered. When brought up for trial ho withdrew his plea of not guilty and pleaded guilty. Iu view of tho fact that it was hia first offense and that he bad had long Incarceration in jail and hospital, Judge Moore suspended sentence and allowed tho youth to go on his own rooognizanee, warning him that if auy further misdeeds came to tbe ear of the oourt, be would be rearrested and sentenced. The court was Informed on the best authority that William had been stealing again, so he was arrested and appeared In court this morning. 'Harvey," Bald Judge Moore, "you've been at jour old tricks, and I'm going to sentence you on your conviction." "I havo done nothing, elr," Harvey replied, "I've been at home every night.

I've been drunk once or twice." "Where did you get those clothes you pawned?" Judgo Mooro asked. William glauced around haBtily, as though to die cover whether anybody was near lo oontradict him and said "They wero tho clothos they gave mo when I left the hospital." "No they weren't," the oourt said. "You've been Bteallng. Two years and a half In tho Penitentiary." THE ASSAULT ON MICHAEL HART. Another of the Blcn Implicated Ar rvntedSSart Vetting Better of SSI Wounds, Captain Mackellar, of tho Tenth Precinct, arrested John Lynoh a palntor, residing at No.

310 Hancock Btreet, at a late hour last night and locked him up on suspicion of baring been implicated in the assault upon Miohael Hart of No. 750 Classon avenue, who at au early hour yesterday morniug was so severely beaten in Andrew Handerhan'a lager beer saloon, No. 917 Bergen street, that It was bolleved at one time by Dr. McLaughlin, of Grand avenue, who attended him, that he would not recover. As soon as the police were notified of the matter, Captain Maokellar and Detective James Lenehan started out to forret up the oase, but thus far havo notsucoosdod in getting at the bottom facte of the oeourrenco.

It seems that there was a party drinking iu Handerhan's saloon about half an hour after midnight and a row ensued. It wae a drunken quarrel, and Hander han succeeded In gutting the parties out of hla place. Tho row was resumed on the sidewalk and Borne of tbe party appear to havo made a dead set on Hart, for be was knocked down, kicked and beaten until his faoe was unreooguisable, and his head covered with wounds. In this condition ha was carried home by eome of bis friends by whom he wae found. The polloe in working up tbe case secured the names of James and John Lynch, of No.

340 Hancook street, Joseph Henderson, No. 890 Atlantic avenue, and Henry Cook, No. GG Rogers avenue. Detective Lenehan arrested all of them except James Lynch and they wero questioned in turn by Captain Maokellar. All deny any knowledge ot tho assault, although thoy admit that they wero In tho saloon, Justice Walsh committed them for examination, and tho police are still investigating the case.

Dr. MoLaughlin states that this morning be finds Hart's wounds are not so serious as he at first supposed and that ho is out of danger. It Is claimed by his friends that Hart pushed bis bead through a pane of glass and thuB got his injuries. VERT SLIM EVIDENCE, Upon which Assistant Fire Engineer Smith Caused, the Arrest of an Ei Fireiuan for Arson A Suit for Damages Hew Jakey Worth Fig urea In the Case. On tho 14th instant William Lynch, an ox fireman, was arrested on complaint of Assistant Flro Engineer John W.

Smith, charged with arson. Tha oomplalnt alleged that on the night of the 13th instant Lynch set fire to a building at 351 North Second street. Yesterday afternoon the prisoner wae examined before Justice Naeher, Mr. Sidney Williams appearing on bis behalf. Engineer Smith testified that the fire In question was undoubtedly of Incendiary origin, from the faot that the flames started from the outside of the building.

Lyueh, he said, was the first man to give the alarm of fire. When asked wnat faot or oiroumstanoe led him to bBlleve that Lynoh aet fire to the building, the witness replied "The faot that ho stated to me that he discovered the fire first, and was demanding pay for the loss of an umbrella and a hat. No other faot of my own knowledge leads me to suspect him." Several other witnesses testified to the incendiary origin of tbe fire, but no evidence was elicited as to the guilt of the prisoner, and consequently he was discharged upon the testimony of tbe prosecution. Lynch remained In jail for six days aud for this hardship he proposod to sue Engineer Smith for $10, 000 damages. It is alleged by persons acquainted with the faots that Lynch'a unwarranted arrest, as it is termed by.

some, was the outgrowth of a political trouble In the Sixteenth Ward, last year. During the investigation of the Sixteenth Ward Bepubllcan primary, which waB contested, Lynoh made an affidavit that Smith had sent several membors of the Fire Department to tho primary to vote the Jacob Worth tloket. Lynch, himself, voted for Mr. Worth, but when, soon after, that gentleman, as Commissioner of the Fire Department, discharged him from the force, he took occasion to disclose, as be alleged, some of the political doings of that department. For this aot, it Is said, that the politicians have been wattltUor an opportunity to punish the man Lynch.

UBS. Rf LAND'S CASE. Mrs. Elsie Byland, who was some time ago indicted by tbe Grand Jury of New York, together with her husband, charged with forgery, and who was subsequently convicted by a Jury in the Court of General Sessions and sentenoed to serve a term la the Penitentiary, now seefce to have her case appealed, and for tbls purpose her oounBOl, Mr. Edward P.

Mitchell, upon an order to show oause, made a motion before Judge Height, In the Supreme Court Chamber, for a tay of proceedings. Mr. Mltohell argued that the offense for which his client had been convicted bad not bean committed by her but by her husband; that every act done by her was lawful; that ahe not being present whon the ohesk was forged, she therefore eould not be committed for tbe offense, aud that no oouviotion could bo had upon the testimony of an aooompllee. The counsel also claimed that there was no testimony in tbe case to show that his client had committed any unlawful aot. Assistant District Attorney Beqnier, who appeared in oppoaltlon to tbe motion, contended that there waa not a partlole ef proof of coercion In this case but that there wae olear proof that she waa an active partlolpant in the crime.

He claimed that she had uttered the check and was preeent when tho alterations were made in conclusion, remarking that where the wife is an active and willing participant in the crime she can be hfia. Decision was reserved. IHHHNITI TO DI8TUBBEB8 OF THE PEACE. At the Varet street Gospel Tent, last evening, between twenty and thirty young men began raising disturbances.

MUNICIPAL. Progress of Work on tlie Bridge. President Murphy's Weekly Report to the Mayor The Vacancy In the Park Com mission Fort Greene Infested Two of the Public Bullis Stranded on the Sow anus Shore The Water Question DIs charges in the Park Department, Etc. Two of the public baths remain stranded on the shore at tha foot of Twenty tblrd street. Meanwhile thousands of men, women and children who enjoyed their bousfits last year are loudly complaining.

It soems that last Fall, when tho baths were towed to the foot of Twenty third street to be kept thero until this season, tho tides were high. Whon they receded they left two of the structures high and dry, and as there have been no suoh tides since, thore they stick. This is the explanation given by Assistant Engineer DeMorritt, of tho Department of City Works, who has for several days hod men at work endoavorlng to get tbe baths down into the water. Last year the struotures were stuck in the mud and some delay was experienced in getting them ont. DoMorrltt determined to have them far enough up on shore this year, but he seems to have gone a little to for.

A few days before tho appointments were announced, however, the Alderman was Informed that Mr, Shults would not be one of tho commissioners.

An Affidavits on Both Sides. New Depositions Presented by thd Bail way Company to Prove the Case a Franrj.

The Reply on Behalf of tha Plaintiff aa Absolute Denial of the Charge of Sham mlng and Deceit. This morning the case of John T. Harrold against the New York Elevated Bailroad Company for damages received in the collision on the Third avenue Elevated Railroad in March. 1879. came before Justice Cullen on the motion mado'by the defense for a new trial on the ground of newly discovered evidence.

The railroad company was represented by ex Lieuten ant Governor Dorshelmer and Hon. John T. Bergen and Chaunoey Sohaffer and N. Dalley for tbe plaintiff, Harroid. It will be remembered that this suit exoited considerable interest at the time trial.

Major Harroid claimed to have been permanently injured tn the collision on tiie defendant's road at Forty seoond street. New York City, in Maroh, 1879. He sued the oompany for $50,000 damages, and the action was tried in the Circuit Court of this county in May, 1880. Witnesses testified to the serious and last ing nature of the injuries sustained by Major Harroid. After two physical examinations on behalf of the defendant Dr.

Johnson, Dr. Hutchinson, Alexander Mc Lean Hamilton and Dr. Skene testified that there was nothing the matter with the plaintiff and that be was ptrfeotly well. The jury gave the plaintiff a verdiot for $30,000. The General Term of Supreme Court and Court of Appeals affirmed the judgment.

Since that affirmation by the Court of Appeals the motion for a new trial was made, and the affidavits as to new evidence are very volumluous. The whole fore noon and up to half past one o'clock was consumed by the reading of affidavit on both sides. THE PBOOEEDINGS. Aftor some preliminary business had beenTdisposed of Justice Cullen called the Harroid case. Both eides answered "ready." Mr.

Dorshelmer before onenins the argument, asked leave to serve affidavits which had been procured too late yesterday anernoon lor servioe upon me oiner siae. They askd leave to sorve them now. Mr. Sohaffer said he should not be willing to asoept the service of the additional affidavits, There had already been a good many served whioh were outside of the limits of the order to show cause. The plaintiff's side were prepared to meet the allegation that had been mado by the defense.

When he readied hie argument, he would, unless aroatly mistaken, shown a condition of affairs whish would indicate a very low state of olvlllzatlon. The ery now made had been raised before, and the new material could only be cumulative. Judge Cullen said he would allow the affidavits to be read. He would hear ail the papers and an opportunity would be given to answer. Counsel for the plaintiff said it the thing was to go do thero would be fifty more affidavits served.

Tbe oefense had a mill whloh would keep on grinding. Judgo Cullen geld that If the affidavits were read now the plaintiff would havo aultable opportunity to answer, and that would end the service of affidavits, or they could be served now and the case adjourned to enable plaintiff to examine and answer In tho usual way. Mr. Scbaffer asked that they be allowed to examine the two new affidavits tben, before deciding whether they would adjourn. This was granted.

After examining the affidavits counsel for the plaintiff said they would proceed with the motion, the court to fix a time in which they should be allowed to answer. Hon. John T. Bergen, of oounsel for the railroad oompany, proceeded to read the affidavits presented by the defense In support of the motion. Mr.

Bergeu first read his own affidavit, whloh was published in (ho Eagle some days ago. It outlined tho case, giving tbe reasons why they asked for a new trial. Next he read the affidavits of George Colgan and John Furman, court officers in the Supreme Court, which were also published in tho Eagle some days ago. Also the affidavits made by Mrs. Lotta E.

Hockwell, of No. 75 North Fourth street; of Maggie Johnson, (colored servant) residing In New York, who was employed for a time in the Harroid family. The affidavits already published In the Eaole narrated the alleged activity of the plaintiff Harroid while residing at Nonuet, In Hockland County, ond were intended to show that be was not injured as claimed, and narrating the devioes alleged to have been practiced by Harroid to give the idea that he was fondly Injured and confined to his bed. A further affidavit waa made by the girl to the effect that she signed an affidavit at the request of Mrs. Barber, Mr.

Harrold's sister sho Blgned an affidavit before a justice of the peace in Rocalund County, but that it waa not read to her, and that at that time sho could not read and did not kuow what It was she signed. The affidavits of Dr. Joseph O. Hutohispu, of this city, of Henry A. Seaman, of Nanuet, Rockland County, of Margaret Conners, of the same place, of John Foshay and Kuth C.

Ackermau, of Nyack. The Bub stance of these affidavits have already been published in tho Eaqls and relate instanoes when Harroid was alleged to havo been seen riding and moving about the house in Nanuet, showing that he was not injured, as claimed. Her husband, Charles H. Ackerman, deposed to the same effect, and Robert A. Piukerton, of Pinker ton's detective agency, to the effeot that efforts of bis officers to ascertain Harrold's real condition were baffled.

Mr. Bergen also read the lien for $19,600 served upon the defendants. THE HEW AFFIDAVIT. Tbe new affidavits were read, the first being by Wll Horn RobertB, ot New York, that he went up to Nanuat upon one oocaslon with one 810 era Clare, that they alighted from tbe railroad some distance from tbe house and remained there that after waiting a short time taey were shown to Harrold'e room, where they found him In a bed which was fresb, the Bheets and pillow cases fresh, with a fresb handkerchief about bis hoad. Harroid looked well, but said in a whining voice that he woe very ill indeed that he wont down stairs to lunch, and snbnequenly wont upstairs again aud again found Harroid lying in a fresh bed with the bedllnon unruffled that the day was warm, and that it would be impossible for a porson to lie in the bed for that length of time without mussing tbe linen the family knew he visited the plaintiff on behalf of the railroad company.

Jacob P. Gross, of' Nanuet. deposed to seeing Harroid while residing at that plaoe and saw bim moving about the premlsoj Vdthout assistance. George Williams, oHiUsioiv Nri deposed that ho also saw Harroid tho premlasa unaided, that he walked upstairs with deponent to look at a feather bed. which be sold to deponent for a few dollars.

Harroid, deponeni aaid, walked upstairs without assistance. August Alinont, of No. 921 East One Hundred and Eleventh street, New York, deposed that in the Spring of 1879 he was aoquatnted with Dr. Jonathan T. Doyo, who then resided at the corner of Twenty second street and Seventh avenue, and was often at said doctor's office; that the said Dr.

Deyo is tbe same person who was a witness for the plaintiff on the trial of the ease. That deponent remembers the collision in Maroh, 1879, when plaintiff olalms to have been injured that after the accident deponent wob in the office of the said Dr, Deyo who told htm what good luck he had bad in being called to attend a man who was on tbo train at the time of the ooltleton. Deponent asked the doctor if be was much hurt, and the doctor replied, "Ob, my, no no more than you are." Deponent replied, "If the man was not hurt I don't seo how you are to get great damiges from the oompany;" he explained to me how he ex peotedtowork the case; he said Harroid wae an old patient of his. whom he had known for years, and some years before Harroid, who was a builder, had bad a fall from a Boaffold and bad broken some ribs and received eome other Injury and Deyo said "Wben the dottsra of the company shall come to examine Harroid they must necessarily find that he bad been Injured, and they will be unable to fix the date of that injury or to tell how long ago it happened." Dr. Deyo said that be had a great deal of trouble with Harroid to make him do what he wanted him to do that he was very obstinate, and that he would not stay in bad that he had a great deal of trouble with him to have him manage It so that he should be in bed whenever anybody came to see him, and not allow people to visit him.

About the same time Dr. Deyo told mo about tho case of bis ewn sister, who had been on a train to which an aocident had happened on one of the roads to Coney Island, and that he had managed the case and made a very good thing out of tho company. On a subsequent occasion, but before the trial of this aotlon, Dr. Deyo showed to me an agreement whloh he had prepared for Harroid to Bign, by wbloh Harroid was to agree to give him one half of whatever might be reoovered from the oompany in this aotlon, and Dr. Deyo said "If Harroid don't sign this I shall leave the case, and then he cannot reoover a cent" Thle deponent says that he afterward understood Harroid refused to sign the eald agreement.

A little while before the aocident Dr. Deyo introduced me to one Charles Fisher, a young man about 22 or 23 yearB old. After the aooident this man Fisher came to Dr Deyo's office, where I then was, with his arm in a sling saying that he had fallen from a wagon or some other vehiolo and had Injured hla arm very severely, and Dr Deyo then said "It is a pity you did not oomo a little 'while before, for then we oould have put you into the elevated railway acoident at Forty seoond street, and you could have got large damages;" and turning to mo (thle deponent) Dr. Deyo said: "And you oonld have made something handsome out of it by simply testifying that you Baw Fisher in the elevated train, and that be waa a passenger on tbe train to wbloh the aooident happened." Tbe deponent further says that he had afterward repeated conversations with Dr. Deyo about the Harroid oase, both before and during the trial thereof, and that deponent well knows, from the conversations of the said Dr.

Deyo, that the said case waa fraudulent. After the trial of the case iu Brooklyn Dr. Dayo told me that he had groat trouble in making Harroid understand what he should do in order that he should appear to the court and Jury to be Bufilclently slok aud In a Btate of aufferiug, and Dr. Deyo aaid "The company bad the smartest dootora In Brooklyn and New York, and I had the aatlsfaotion of beating them." Tbls deponent further says that he narrated some of the matters above stated to a friend of hia shortly after the acoldeut, but that on this 17th day of July, 1882, this deponent did, for the flrat time, state all of the facts and matters hereinbefore set forth to Mr. William Dorshelmer, the oounsel for tbe defendant, and this deponent now makes tbls affidavit in the interest of publlo justice, and for the purpose of exposing what this deponent believes to be a fraud and conspiracy.
