LEGISLATION. 4 (yCLOCK EDUIOI THE FDCH8 JUBY. Wbat Foreman Johnson Sara About It. In a oonTarsatian with the Foreman of the Fuohs Jury, Mr. Jobs H.

Johnson, a well known, In tantgent snd tesnootsd resident of Greenpoint, that gentleman stated to an Ejloui reporter that after the jury were locked up nearly ail of them indulged In considerable talk over the testimony snd the Judge's charge. Being somewhat experlenoed In Jury business he called them to order snd suggested the propriety ot taking an informal ballot. It was agreed to and tho result wss six for murder in the first degree, five for the second degree snd one for the third degree. A formal ballot was immediately after taken, snd they stood nine for the first, two for the second snd one still for murder in the third degree. Mr.

Johnson Inquired of the man in favor oMhe third degree if he was opposed to capital punlshment.and was surprised to receive an affirmative reply. He told him that he had no right to bo on the jury In that ease, and a mile sua a half. He asserted that nineteen tweh tleths of ths people ot bis ward favored steam. Alderman Blaok asserted that all his people were in svor of steam and none against it. Senator Belkteg sold that he hod reoelved forty letters from residents of Brooklyn In favor of and font against steam.

This dosed the hearing to day. Since writing the above it bos been intimated that Senator 8elkreg, Chairman of the Committee, Is opposed to the bin. This may be a false report. So far he has declined to commit himself either way. Senator Eennaday has arrived st the determination to force the bill out of ths Committee.

NEW LOTS GAS. Sometime slnoe Mr, McOroarty presented a bill to repeal the charter of the New Lots Gas Company. This bill was referred to the Assembly Committee on Oittes, of which Mr. MoGroarty is a member. This afternoon ths Committee decided to report the bill favorably.

Eaton, of the Hartford Firo Departrosnt, disappeared from that city nnder vary peonllai olrcumatanoe.

0. F. Celebration of the Third Anniversary music Recitations and Addresses. The members of Fort Greene Lodge, I. O.

O. celobMted Its third anniversary at the Brooklyn Institute last evening. The exercises embraced staging, musio snd recitations, and had evidently been carefully selected. At eight o'clock the floor of the haU was HtoraUy paokod with tho guests of the Lodge. Thero was hardly standing room.

The rear of the rJatform was tBtlly hung with flags, and in tho centre was tho charter of the Lodge encased in an elegant frame. The platform waa occupied by tho offlcerB of tho Order, and was also nsed ty tne musi cians ond singers. Tho programme commenced witn the overture from the "Caliph of Bagdaa," in wmcn Nolan's brass and string band was accompanied by the Misses Heather and Ehrlloh and Masters Fickeand Eckstein, who ployed on two pianos. The pleoo was well executed. Next came the OPENTNO ADDBESS, which was delivered by J.

A. Oatman, P. and which was very brief, but to the point. From it, it appears that Fort Greene Lodgo was formed on April 11, 1873, and the figures taiten irom too rocora oi it show best as to tho mannor of its progression. Its total reoolpts up to the present tlmo have been $4,997.

At tho close of Brother oatman's speccn, union was loudly applauded, Miss Ella Roe gave a recitation entitled "Tho Maniac." It was weU rendered and received. A banjo duet by W. G.

Thompson and J. Young brought out tho first tncore, in return for which the bonjoisls played together a Bpanisn lanaango witn great skill and effect. Mr, A. Johnson sang a oomio song, "Grandfather Dan," ana dia it so aamuaoiy as to be encored. "101 Follow Thee," song by Miss O.

Nichols, was vory fine and called forth a genuine ap plause. Mr. WUliam G. Kellett tnen sang a comic song, "Can any ono say Where my nanny gonej Booond part of tho programme opened with a grand chorus from "Ernani," hail us, ye free." It was rendered by the Adelphi Choral Society, under the eon ductorship of Mr. F.

Bechtel, the director of tbe Adel phi Conservatory. The voices were aocompaniea oy the band and two pianos. J. K. ireaioaer, r.

men DEIdVEBED A BBOBX ADDBESS, In whioh he congratulated the Lodge on its third anniversary, and hoped that prosperity would ever attend Mb progress. The exhibit of the present standing of tno Lodge aa given by Brother Oatman, was not only gratifying to its members, but it is emphatically tribute to the Order Itself. It la but a specimen briok of what tho Order of Odd Fellows is doing throughout the country and the members of which number over half million. Odd Fellowship teaches" to man his duty to bis fellow man and to his God. Its principles ore such that it makes of its members better citizens, truer patriots, and kindlier neighbors than some ot them might be perhaps without the influence of the Order.

Its every aim is to increase man's happiness and remove anything like cars and sorrow from his path to shield him In trouble and adversity snd comfort him in his last hour. Brother Tresidder was glad to have the opportunity, he said, of being present tho anniversary of the Lodge. Tbe programme then closed with "The Spirit Bridegroom" recitation, by H. E. Firth, P.

song, Waiting exquisitely rendered by Miss G. Moore; three very good comic songs by an unknown gentleman, who was called on by request to sing one snd wss encored twice as penalty piano sort, by Master Carl Ficke, very bad performance, in which oomio Irish songs (Indifferent in themselves and to the way they wero rendered) wtoe accompanied on the banjo, and tho "Centennial Chorus," by the Adelphi Choral Society, band snd piano. The entertainment, as a whole, was very pleasing and thoroughly enjoyable. Alter the close, the floor was clsaxed snd dancing oom tnenoed.

TBBEATESKD TO TAKE LIFE, David Lena, an employe of the Knickerbocker loo Company, was returning from New York teat Saturday night, when he had a dispute with the ferrymaster on tho Brooklyn sldo of the Roosevelt street Ferry, He drew a revolver, and pointing it at tho ferrymaslor, threatened to take his life. He was arrested and committed for examination. JEREMIAH.

Injunction to Oast Him from the Fort. The African M. K. Church Trouble In Court Justice Gilbert Won't Allow tho Church to he Closed They Must Eject Mr. Murray by an Action at Law What was Agreed Upon.

Counselor D. O. Van Cott applied this morn, ing, to Justioo Oilbert, for an injunotion to enjoin tho Rev. Joremiah B. Murray, pastor of the Fleet street M.

E. Church, from proventmg tho trustees dosing tho church. Mr. Van Cott said that Mr. Murray was living, eating and sleeping In tho church, and would not allow the trustees to close the edifice, though a ohuroh mooting hod directed them to do bo.

Justice Gilbert said thby oould not try Itho title to real estate in an equity action. Mr. Van Cott Bald all they desirod was simply to en Join Mr. Murray from preventing tho closing of the church. Justice Gilbert said the same etate of things existed in the Rockvllle Centre case.

A minister was appointed by tho Conference, and ho remained in the parsonage. They commenced an action of ejectment to turn aim out. He claimed that the Conference had a right to locate him thoro against the will of the church. Though tho logal right to the property lay in tho trustees, yet it was in trust, to bo administered in aocordanoo with tho canons of the ohurch. His Honor did not think the trustees had a right to stop tho pastor.

Tho trustees merely had tho control of tho property, but COULD HOT CONTROL THE PASTOB'S PBEACHING. Mr. Van Cott said tbat tbe church corporation directed tho trustees to closo tho cburoh odince, in consequence of serious irregulnrity. They asked liim to tender his resignation, but ho refused; then another mooting ordered tbo building to bo closed. They attempted to closo it, accordingly, a week ago last Sunday, and the pastor resisted.

Thoy wanted tbe injunotion to enjoin him from preventing tbclr closing tbo edifice. Things were in such a state that Mr. Charles H. Butcher, ol the Continental Inaurauco Comoauy, had applied to have their risk transferred. Tho church had appealed to tho bishop, bat ho had not regarded tho communication.

Mr. Haguer, for tho pastor, said that Mr. Murray was an older of tho Methodist Episcopal Communion, and was assigned to tho Fleet Btroct Church by tho Conference in 1874, and reappointed in 1875. Tho Discipline provided that tho minister should bo chairman of tho Board of Trustees ex officio, and tbat his signature Bbould bo nocossary to all documents, where tho law oi tho Stato did not provido otherwise. The true tecs declined to let tbe pastor bo chairman, and that was the cause of too trouble.

Tho Discipline also provided that when a minister did something unacceptable to his people tho Conferenoe should EXAMINE INTO TBE MATTEB. In this csbo no charge whatever had been preferred. Tbe pastor preferred charges against Mr. King and ho was tried and rcmovod. Ho applied to the courts, wblch supported tbo action of the minister.

The difficulty woe trifling, only a few of the coqgregatlon being dls satlsuod. Ho had but a short time to remain, and he asked to be allowed to servo out bis time without interference. Mr. Van Cott What! and eat and sloop in tho church 1 Mr. Uagner Ho remains tberc, and takes bis meals in the church, as the paBtor who preceded him did.

Ho was discharging bis duty when be refused to permit a few pcoplo to close tho building. Everything was qmot, except when tho plaintiffs came and throw somo pf tbo friends of the pastor into the street, Mr. Van Cott Bald that no discipline oould modify tho statuto, which did not make tho pastor an ex ojpeio member of the Board of Trustees. Wbonever a trustee opposed bim BE OUT OFF HIS BEAD. Ten men were expelled becauso thoy said ho was not Chairman of tbo Board of Trustees.

The church called a meeting which directed tho trustees to closo tho edifice. Justice Gilbert Tho trustees hold the building in trust, to keep it open, not to close It. They hold it for the purposes of worship. I don't think they havo any right to closo it. Mr.

Van Cott Suppose Mr. Murray was to turn infidel Justioo Gilbert Well, It might be right in sowoeason, but not unless there was somo gross act on the part of tbe pastor. Tho Court eaunot interfere eo as to pervert the object of tho trust. Mr. Van Cott Ho has expollod the trustees.

Justice Gilbert He can't do that unless by permission of the Conference. Mr. Van Cott This Court can onjoln him. Mr. Gilbert I won't.

I can't pervert tbe object of tho trust. Tiioy are bound to keep tho ohurch open. Mr. Van Cott Can ho live there, your Honor, Justlca Gilbert Try that by an action for ejectment. On tho mcro grounds of a gquabblc, it is monstrous for tbo trustees to assumo that right to elose up tho church.

If tho pastor had booomo an infidel, or a Roman Catholic, it would, bo dilleront. Mr. Van Cott Tho minister end port of his flock aro living in the church. Jnstico Oilbert Withdraw your threat, and, if tho pooplo don't like bun, let them etay away. If, on in tlrimtiou, tbat tho trustees won't module, tho pastor won't do what is right, renew tbo application, Mako an order such aa you may agreo upon.

Counsol consulted, and Justioo Gllbort finally directed on order to bo made granting tho motion tor an. injunction bo far as it restrained tho pastor from using the church otherwise than before tho diffiouity aroao, and providing that he should bo allowed to minister in tho church until tho furthor order of tho Court. THE SCANDAL. Address by tlie Uonimitlco of the Association ol Congregational Minis ters Appointed to Kccclvo New TestimonyAnybody Who Knows Any. tiling; New Asked to Come Forward and Tell It.

At tho recent annual meeting in Brooklyn, of the Association of Congregational Ministers of Now York and Brooklyn, as a port of tho action taken in Mr. Bcochor's case, a Commlttcoof Three was appointed to call for and receive any additional testimony whioh might exist in relation to tho charges against bim. This Comwlttoo, consisting of Revs. Smith Hobart, B. 8.

Stone and Samuel H. Virgin, bos issued the following call for such testimony THE CALL. At the annual meeting of the Now Vork and Brooklyn Association of Congregational Mlnlstors, held iu Brooklyn, April 5, 1870, a Coinnnttco was appointed, under resolutions already widely published, to call for auy ui ther untried IcaUmoay in tho case ol tho Roy. Henry Ward Beechor. Tbe immedlato and only purpose of this action is to determine Mr.

Boocher's worthiness to remain a member of this Association, and it is bassd upon facts and principles stated in the preamblo to thoso resolutions, as followB, That "every ministerial assooiatlou must bo deoply airectod by whatovor gravely touches the moral reputation and character of its members." That every member, when unwarrantably assailed by disreputable charges, has a right to expect and to ask from tho brothron of the Association whatever aid thoy. can render toward discovering and establishing JUo truth;" That not ho alone, but tho whole body of Christian ministry and tho christian faith, has the right to ask it of them That there iB Btlll more or loss extensive dissatisfaction with previous investigations into what has been aKegod against our brother;" That tuore is now the possibility of a now investigation by a Commission of five aro.lno.nt Christian rnon, according to tho udvlco of tho lato Brooklyn Council;" And the furthor fact that Mr. Beeohcr has publicly, repeatedly and in Btrong torms his desire that such an investigation shall be thorough, complete and dual." It cannot bo reasonably doubted that thB entire Association also strongly desire somo mothod ot inveBtlca tlou adopted that shall bo decisive and satisfactory In lis results to all fair minded men. But although oey nro not fully agreed ae to what that method should be, wo are confident that tho Association, by their action In this matter, do not mean to oommlt themselves aa to tho Congregationalism of tho late Brooklyn Council. But just aa ouo would omploy a fit and oompetent person for a difficult service without inquiring who his father was, they seek to utilize a provision already made, which seems more hopeful of suoccos than any other as yet devlaod.

Wo do now, therefore, in tbe language of the resolutions appointing tho Committee, most earnestly invito and argo any parlies believed or professing to bavo evidence, or any Knowledge of ovidenoe, not already Investigated boforo the civU court, to present the samo Leforo tho Commission," and wo hereby also publicly offer, as wo are requested to do, to give to them, or to any parties bringing definite cbargea ogaiuBt Mr. Beechor, assistance may seem needful to those parties and proper to this Committee, in order to each a presentation of the same before the Commission as shall bo likely to ecouro the earliest determinate and satiBfylng issue," We make this call in tbo name of an Association which, notwithstanding the deeply regretted withdrawal, on a aide issue, or a row honored and beloved members, still remains by far the largest association of Congregational ministers in this State. And we make it in that full conviction of tho reasonableness of this oourso wblch led tbo Association hnally to resolve 'That if thoso who thus claim to have evidence, or to bo able to substantiate charges, against Mr. Boocher, eboll knowingly fall or refuse to make use of this or other means to bring such obargca or evidence before that Commission of Investigation, this Association, in thoabsonce of further light, must hold luelf theneo forth amply Justified In utterly condemning those charges, allegations, insinuations and rumors as fatae and slanderouB, and iu defending Mr. Boooher aa a worthy, honored and beloved member of thiB body." wn Ihn undPTsionod.

members of tbo Committee appointed for this purpose, accordingly hold ourselves rcody to receive and act upon any proper communication under the foregoing call, Signed) I Smith Hodabt, B. 8.

Ilw UiUxma lo Grtenwood, A Young Prussian Soldier's Elopement With a yivandiere.

His Wife Follows flint to Brooklyn and Has Him Arrested for Abandonment Stagrnlar Tale of tore, Heroism and Infldellty. This morning an intelligent and dignifloa German, about 38 yoars of age, waa officially Introduced to Justlo Semler by Officer Guise. The offloar, arrested him yesterday, at his rcsidonos, No. 3oo South Fourth street, E. on a charge of abandonment preferred by bis wife, at tho instance of Charities Commissioner Baber.

Tho name of the accused is Philip Heniga, and his story is a romantlo one. Ho claims to be a young mon pf aristocratic connections and to have lived at Baden Badea before coming to reside in this His father, he alleges, is an army offleer of high rank in the Prussian service. When quite youth, Philip married tho woman who now complains against him, and there were two children bora of the union, at a period when he entered the army to take part iu the Franco Prussian war. He entered a regiment of Hussars, and served with distinction, as tho medals of which he was the recipient, attest. During one of the great battles he was wounded, aud while eiok he found fond snd gentle nurso In a peasant girl, who followed the regiment as vivandiere.

Between this young woman snd the soldier, away from his wife snd homo, on sffeetionoto Intimacy sprung up. He soys that he was never attached to his wife, and that their marriage was the re suit of a family mtrigao, suoh aa is oommon in soma parts of the Fathorland. Bhe. too. ia of coed fomllv.

and la represented as owning considerable property st Baden Baden. Bnt after their marriage, her husband says she fell into habits of dissipation, and when at the battle field, ho Btates tldlnga camo to him of her infidelity to her marrlago vows. In a very circumstantial narrative of this part of his life, told to Offioer Guise, ho related how, from the moment he heard this, the current of his affection set against the woman, around whom It sho uld have centered, and how, owing to $er kindness to bim, and hor aolloltuda for his recovery, be came to love the llttlo vivandiere. After Sedan, in oommon with other soldiers, Philip was permitted to toy down his arms, snd when he reached Baden bo wob accompanied by the girl who bod followod the victorious fortunes of the regiment. There, he relates, he found awaiting him confirmatory proofe of the sad Information that reached him when away.

His wife's habit of intemperance had grown upon her, ond he afhrma that she had beoomo suoh an adept wine drinker tbat she oonaumed six bottles in on hour. To live with her undor these circumstances, he alleges, was impossible, and a greater Impossibility still BccniB to have boon to shake off tho vivandiere, even If his love for her had diminished, which does not at all appear to novo been the caso. Faithfully as ehe had followod the heroes of the war, she followod Philip yet more' faithfully, and to tho young man, borne down by domestic miseries, and without means of his own, tho whilom daughter of tho regiment suggested flight. Her voice to htm, in the principal emergenoy, was like that of a siren, although her method of induolng compliance with her entreaty eriuoed a fair share of worldly wisdom, Sho bad saved monoy mado during the time sho was vivandiera, and ia offering Philip haraolf sho offered him her little ortuno oIbo, telling bim tbat they would have enough wherewith to reach America and then live happily ever after. To this assurance of his enslaver, tho young knight barkened, and deserting his family ho fled with her and reached Hew York about four years ago.

Here ha found employment, aud tbo vivandisre's dream of happiness appeared to bo realized. Not so Philip's. He was consolenos smitten, and manifested continually an anxiety for Ids children that all tho arts of tho woman he lovod could not allay, and BUspense oonoorning them became so unbearable that ho went to Germany to visit thorn about six months ago. It Booms he bod arranged that his uiothor, who was ignorant of tho circumstances of his flight, should pay some attention to them, and ho found that they had been cared for. Bat bo adds that his wife had found anothor lover with whom sho was living in tho relation of husband, and that he, therefore, had no desire to see her.

Ho loft Baden after a vory briof visit, and returned to Wtltlamsburgh and tho vivandiere. Whon ho departed, it appears, his wifo beard of bis having boon homo and became greatly incensod at his nogloat of her. Hitherto, sbo had not known where ho was, but when aha ascertained that he was living somewhere near Now York sbo determined to follow him, and putting hor resolution into effect, she arrivod hero on Monday last. Sho tben visited tho German CoubuI, and aided by bim discovered her husband's whereabouts. She was instrnotod bow to procood, and represented, on oath, to Charities Commissioner Baber that sho waa about to beoomo a charge on this oounty.

Mr. Baber then, took etepe to effoct tho husband's arrest. When Officer Guise wont to his house in South Fourth street, last evening, and told him he was sent to take him Into cosiody, the grief ot the vivandiere was overwhelming. She clung to her lover and refnsed to lot him depart, until the officer had to deal sternly with her. Heniga stated to his Honor that ho was willing to support his chlldron, but tbat bo oould not consent to live' with his wifo.

Ho was represented by Counselor Pormentcr, who roqnested on adjournment of tho case, which was granted, tho prisoner being held to bonds. INDUSTB1AL SCHOOL ANNIYEBSABY.

After the prayer meeting this morning the dors wore olosod snd the Conference went into Committee, of tho Whole to consider applications for for admission into tho clergy on trial, Bev, 3.

Owing to tho fullness of the Conference and the few vacant charges, tbe delegated, after some discussion, concluded that it would not be advisable to increase their Dumber, NO CANDIDATES ADMITTED THIS TEAB, Bev.

Dr. M. L. Boudder oFTnrf.il a rAnMntton to tbo effect thot it was Inexpedient to admit any candidates into tho Conference during the present year; and that those candidates who had been before the Examining Committee snd paased examination should receive cer tificates for presentation to the next Conferenoe. The resolution was adopted.

The doors of the church woro then opened and tho Sews on tho floor and in the galleries were soon filled ladles. Bishop Harris resumed the chair at the commencement of the open session. AIDTKG POOR CHURCHES. Bev. Dr.

Kettell moved that the church at MianuB be authorized to collect funds from other churahes for its support and the payment of its debt. Kev. a. Piatt moved to add tbe Platinum unurcn. Several motions for the addition of other aburohoa were made, and a large number of imperilled churches were named.

This gave rise to a lengthy disoussion as to whether ao many churches should be authorized to coneot tunaa Irom other ohurcnes. Motions to add tbo church at West Haven and Flat bush to the Mianus Ohuroh woro carried. Bov. Dr. Scndder moved to add the church at Thom oaton, which needed aid and would rra down unless it had it.

Bev. Dr. Roach hoped the motion would not bo adopted. It was tbe last straw or feather that broko the camel's book, and it was now proposed to pnt a whole bag of feathers on it. Brothers who had como there without asking for aid should not do so because other oases hod been put forward.

Two years ago be wanted an appointment and ho wanted htm to eo to Newbridge and Seaport, but ho would not do so. The peoplo become dissatis fied. Another church bad boon formed, which met in a dwelling house at Nowbridgo that bad caused a great deal of trouble Brother Henson had preached for thorn two Sabbaths. This had causod a good deal of disBatiafacticn. because Brother Honson had rofused to go there once ond then went to preaoh for a faction.

Elder Fletcher called upon Brother Henson to oxplain. Brother Honson asked Brother Hristellar, who had originally made the charges, to oomo forward and repeat them. Brother Henson then wont on to explain why he bad not gone to Newbridge. The reason why bo did not go was tbat he would have to get a horse and carriage, preach three times ovory Sunday and get only $600 a year. The pooplo wore delighted when they heard ha was coming.

Brother Flefchor didn't know how many services they had, and didn't represent tbo ohuroh bb ho should havo done Tho objection to him was without foundation at all. With rogard to the prcaohing he had written a cord to Brother Hristellar, asking bim if ho would be offendod if he camo thero to proach. If thero was any responsibility it wss on tbat man; and bontde, Brother Exintollar had said tbat ho bad no objections. Mr. HcnBon faced Elder Fletcher, and, shaking the cord in his face, said that he had NOT TBBATED HIM AS PAIBLY as he might in tbo matter.

He was ready to answer any one yesterday on the subject if any one wishod to ask bim? Applause. Bev. Air. Hristellar proceeded to mako an explanation. He had sold if Brother Henson's oonscionco enabled him to proach he would let him come.

Tho peoplo wero vory much vexed about it and felt tbat Brother Honson waB tbo vory root and branch of evil and if ho over como in their ohuroh to preach they would get up and leave. Elder Flotchor said he had merely brought up the matter for the benefit of the Conferenoe, so as to silence any gabblo that might oocur aftor their BOSBlon was concluded, Bev, Dr. Merwln announced that the collection to enable Mre.

Adopted. The Committee on Eplsoopol Fund reported that 13t cbarobos bad contributed to tbo cause. Adopted. Boports on tho tract cause and Bible cause presented their reportB, which were adopted without debate. The report of tho Church Extension Commltteo showed the Socloty to be in a flourishing condition, and tbat the number of Methodist churches was increasing with great rapidity.

Adopted. Tho Committee on tho Women'B Foreign Mission Society recited a history of their work during tho post year aud commended them. Adopted, the "amehioan advocate" assailed. Tlit, report of tho Committee on Publications of the Methodist Book Concern stated that it had been conducted with great sagacity. The Christian Advocutt hod been ably conducted and had reacbod a circulation of over 50.000.

The discussion of church expenses in the editorial columns, however, was doprecatcd by the Committee as well as a few other subjects whfoil had been diBCUBsed as reflecting on tho Methodist Church. Tho report recited tbo labors of the concern during the year. Bov. Dr. Curry, editor of tho Advocate, opposed the adoption of tbo report.

Ho said ho was not surprised, but ho had learned thero was something coming and the animus of it. The thing was unkind and unbrotherly. He should be ready to meet all this and canvass all tbo facts, and jUBlify every act. If this was brotherly treatment, it was something new. Bev.

Dr. Buckley sold tho Committee, without excep tion, agreed on tho subject. Tho roport was agreed upon yesterday, and had never been voted upon untii this morning. The editor of the Christian Advocate struck out oil through hla course, and never sent men word tbat he was going to attack thorn. Bov.

Dr. Curry said ho never attacked men. Rev. Dr. Buckler rejoined that the Adcocatf.

had at tacked Bev. John Ganaham, and published a card con cernlngBome laymen, holding them up to ridicule, and said they hod dabblod too much in stockB, The Advocate had published an article about the speaker, which led his mother to believe he had been ruined. It was subterfuge that had been tried bofore to say that Dr. Curry waa not prepared to answer. Tho subject had been disouBBed for twelve years iu tho Advocate.

He thought, however, that as Brother Curry was unprepared to meet the statements made, they Bhould adjourn until 3 o'clock this afternoon. A dlsousBion relative to the time of final adjournment here occurred. It was resolved that a session bo hold to morrow morning, when it is expected tbe Conference will conclude Us labors. THE "ADVOCATE" AOATN. Bev.

Dr. Curry said that owing to his illness he could not bo present at the session this afternoon. Ho felt rank injustice was done him, but would have to leave tbe matter with the Conference. He saw his antagonist bad come prepared with statistics. Dr.

Buckley I have nothing but tho CAristi'un Atlvo Dr. Curry rejoined that it was a document of considerable rospoctBbility. Applause. Ho felt ho bad been deeply wronged. Mr.

Buckley denied that tbe Committee treated Dr. Curry with rank injustice. Ho was content to leave tho question with them. Ho was surprised tbat Dr. Curry Bhould cry for quarter.

Dr. Curry denied that he had cried for quarter. Buckley said he did cry for quarter. If he was in Dr. Curry's plaoo ho would take' Bomo other kind of mcdlcino than he had been taking.

Ho would tako quinine and TONE IflMBELT' CP and oome thore and die there if it was necessary. Loud hisBca and cries of "Shame. 'T Dr. Buckley oontinuod to argue that Dr. Curry was trying to Btnvo the matter off, and expressing his surprise at such conduct.

African Reformers who Understand the Meaning of Names More Beserrolr Talk. President Slocturi, of tbe Department of City Works, received a communication this morning from Joseph 8. Chose, President, and F. Q. Barnard, Chairman of the Executive Committee, of su Association composed of colored men living In the Fourth Assembly District, asking for "the appointment of representative colored man to position on the roll of the Department," the person to be selected by the Association.

The writers say "We ask this to carry ont certain principle of rof arm upon which you are so strong on advocate. We are demanding in this direction only what we propose to do in all the other Departments, for a single representation, whereby we can support and maintain our District Association without that cringing, dogged, menial, pound hunting, of being the devotees of what is really against our principle and honest intention. Therefore, accompanying this demand we would desire that you would appoint a time for conferenoe with a delegation from the District, whom you will find subservient to nothing bnt the great principles of reform." President Bloonm referred the oommnnlcaHon to Commissioner Adams for a report thereon. Commissioner Adams said that he thought that the colored men wero entitled to representation and If General Slocum did not go to the front in this matter, he would. If the colored men were good enough to fight for the Union and be declared voters, they were entitled to representation in public departments.

Mr. Adams, however, would make tho appointment of colored men conditional; they should not deposit any moneys they reoelved In a freedman's savings bank. THE STOBAOB BB3EBVOIB AOAIN. The Inference drawn from the remarks of Aldermen men Fisher and Hill at the hut meeting of the Common Council, that the Corporation Counsel had given the Mayor somo special opinion in regard to the storage reservoir to aid his Honor in any proposed polioy in tho Common Council, is lnoorreot. The opinion of the Corporation Counsel as to the power of the olty to complete the dam for the purpose of securing the safety of the work itself, under Ujo general power of tbe city, apart from any special act, was written February 21, 1872, and came into Mr.

Sohroader's possession upon his advent to offioo. Mr. DeWitt declined to render any opinion to the Aldermen, and merely confirmed tho statement ot the Mayor as to the character of the opinion which he had already rendered. Mr. DeWitt stated to an Eiole reporter to day, that while Mr, Siliimon and himself differed as to the power of the city to complete the enlargement of the reservoir without the aot of 1875, he understood Mr.

SiBiman repeatedly to agree with him that the olty might, if it were neoessary for the safety of the work, construct the dam at a small expense, under the common and inherent right of a corporation to preserve its own proporty. Mr. DeWitt also stated that Mr. Evarte hod never considered this question at all. STEAM OK ATLANTIC AVENUE.

Tho Special Aldormanic Committee appointed to go to Albany in the interest of the Atlantic avenue Steam bill, returned to Brooklyn to day. They had hearing before tho Senate Committee on Railroads and come back improssod with tho opinion that tho measure will be dofeated. RAPID TRANSIT. The A.tlantio Avenue Steam Bill. It is Again Discussed Before Senate Com.

mlttee on Railroads Fire Brooklyn Aldermen in Faror of the BUI Farring ton, Curtin, Cook and Baker Opposed. A. S. Barnes as a Director of the Green, wieli Street Elorated Railroad. Special Correspondence of the Eagle.

Albany, April 11, 1876. YeBterday afternoon the Senate Railroad Commiltoo heard arguments on the Atlantio avenuo Steam Bailroad bill. The Committee decided, notwithstanding the protest of Mr. Edward Baker, to limit the whole discussion to one hour and fifteen minutes. Of those in attendance in favor of the bill were Bus sell Parker, Charles Parker, Henry Hartean, Aldermen Frenob, Griswold, Hill and Blaok.

Of those opposed to tho bill wero Messrs. Farrlngton, Curtin, Cook and Baker and Barnes. Mr. Henry Horteau spoke earnestly in favor of the passage of the bill. He spoke in severe language of the adverse report of the bill by the Railroad Committee of the Assembly.

Ho orltlrlsed tho action of Senator Jacobs in causing the discussion on tho bill to be reopened in Committee. He contended that those who opposed the bill did not oppOBe it on its merits; bnt that they brought up sido Issues and issues which had nothing to do with the question. Atlantio avenue was a beautiful avenue, but since steam had been taken off, real estate on that aveuuo had deteriorated, and a pall, as it were, had been thrown over it. The question of restoring stoom on Atlantic avenuo was, with vory few exceptions, unanimously supported by tho peoplo of Brooklyn. They ouaht to be allowed to try tho experiment, fox thero were guardians in Brooklyn who would boo that her citizens were not harmed.

Mr, Charles Parker Bald be had bought property on Atlantio avenue, near Bedford, with a view that steam would be roetored. If it waa not restored ho was ready to eell the proporty at a loss of five thousand dollars, and this offer to sell he would keep open for six months. If steam was restorod he would keep the property. Mr. A.

S. Barnes sold he represented in himself and otberB about two thousand feet of frontage on Atlantic avonue. While attain was on Atlantic avenue all the framo houBes which could bo found wore movod on to the avenue for the reason tbat as a steam avenue it was not looked upon as an avenue for degaat residences. As soon aa a locomotive was restored on Atlantic avenuo none would trust their wives, children and carriages on tho avonuo, A locomotive would be dangerous (o both life and proporty. But oould they get rapid transit with a surface steam railroad He did not think if a looomotive was legalized that it would be allowed to run more than six miles an hour.

That was not rapid transit. Mr. Harvey Farrlngton dwelt at length upon tho amount of money paid for taking etoani off tho avenue. Mr. Edward Baker put In a word hero.

He produced a bundle of papers and pulled therefrom a bill of 83, which he had paid for taking steam off tho avenue. Mr. Richardson What is the data of that bill 7 Mr. Baker Tho 10th of February, 1870. Mr.

Rfchoxdsou Then you fought tbe payment ol tho amount for taking off steam for ten years Mr. Baker Yea, elr. Mr. Farrlngton resumed He reiterated that if the bill was passed there would bo money in it for tho benefit of certain pirtles. He charged that the Loug Island Battroad Company na agreeu to pay seven per cent, interest on tbe bonds and stock of the Atlantic avenue Baiiroad Company for running a locomotive on tho avenue.

He entered into a vorbose story about Atlantic avenue pavement frauds. He also contended that property on Atlantio avonue had appreciated in valuo since steam was taken off Mr. Richardson Bald that Mr. Farrlngton ought to know THE VALUE OF TBTJTR. There had been no agreement or suggestion or thought of agreement by which the Long Island Railrpad Company wob to guarantee a dividend on the Block or interest on the bonds of tho Atlantic avenue Railroad Company.

The only thing sought or mentioned was a rental based ou what the business might prove to be in tho future. Ho, Richardson, rospooted Mr. Birnes' opposition. He, Barnes, advocated that the road should run to the South Ferry on tho Brooklyn side; but ho, Barnes, was connected with and interested in the Elevated Railroad of Greenwich street, New York City, which was to run to the South Ferry on tho Now York side. Mr.

Barnes oontended that there was no connection between his opposition end his interest in tho Elevated KichardBon Are you interested, 'Mr. Barnes, in the Greenwich streot Elevated Railroad aa a etockholder and director! Mr. Barnes said he was. Mr. RtchardBon Well, the gentlemen of the Committee oan connect the facta if thoy like; if there is no connection please don't make any.

Mr Baker asked Mr. Blchordson If Mayor Sohroo dar did not sign tho resolution restoring steam on Atlantio avenuebecause he, tho Mayor, owned six thousand dollars of etook in tho Atlantic avenue Railroad CMr1Bichaidson said that Mayor Sohrooder did own somo Btook, but not six thousand dollars' worth, in tho Atlantio avenue Railroad Company; but he did not approve of tbe resolution on that account. If Baker had been Mayor he would, donbtleas, have approved of the resolutions for the reasons etaled by Baker. Mr. Blchordson theu asked those who believed that Mayor Sohrooder approved the resolution for the reasons dlvon by Baker to bold up their hands.

Edward Baker John Curtin and Wm. Cook were tho only persona who hold up their handB. This causod much merriment in the Committee. Mr. Blchardsou exclaiming, "Just as I Anntjrt nnnlr.

Pakflr and flurtin." President French, of the Board of Aldermen, spoke earnestly in favor of the passage of the bill. He did not think that if Brooklyn wore canvassod to day that one thousand people could bo found opposed to the moosure. Ho thought that real estato on Atlantic avenue had improved in value on account of the proposi tion to restore steam. Alderman GriBwold ssld that the peoplo of tho Eleventh Ward were in favor ot steam. He hod yet to meet the first individual of the ward opposed to It.

No citizens on this oontlnont hod been deprived so much of accommodations FOB VISITING THE OUTSIDE WOULD as the eit tens of Brooklyn. He was before the Com mittse in tbe interest of no one. He was simply there aa the reprosentativo of his people. The half million Seople of tbe dtixens of Brooklyn asked for steam, and waa there to Implore the Committee to report the bill favorably. Mr.

Baker sold that he had periodically, fox a long time, visited Albany to expose tbe swindling schemes for the purpose of laying hold of Atlantio avenne. He waa sorry to inform the Committee that the remonstrances against the passage of the bill, which had been signed, were bo heavy, that ha found it impossible to bring them along with him. He, therefore, could not lay them before the Committee. History always re sated itself. 1876 years ago the beet man that ever ved was put to death crucified.

Senator Setkreg Tho has nothing to do with steam on Atlantic avenue. At this point Senator Tobey intimated that he had got the headache, and he moved that the Committee go Into executive session. Senator Eennaday intimated that Mr. Baker had not had his ten minutes' talk. Senator Tobey said he desired to give Mr.

Baker fair play. Mr. Baker continued his speech far two minute more, and the members of the Committee were bored. Senator Belkreg atraightened his spectacles, Senator Wagner yawned and Senator Tobey pulled vigorously ota cigar. Mr.

Baker took, in more water, and ratUed awoy until be ran off the track. Senator Belkreg took off his specs, and told Mr. Baker to oonflne himself to the Mr. Baker concluded, and left bis papers with the. members or tne uamminee.

naked him if tho question waa not put to him before he was sworn. He said It waa not, Mr, Johnson reminded him that he woe sworn to give a verdict in ee oordonoe with the testimony, and that meant the same thing; that the evidence called lor murder in tho first degree the Jury should so find. When the jury was polled a third time tho juror referred to changed bis ballot to murder In tho second degree. A friend of his on the jury then called bim aside and after reasoning with him a short while a fourth ballot wss taken which resulted in a unanimous verdict of murder in the first degree.

Certainly slnoe the trial I never havo expressed an opinion. It is a mere mattor of habit to refrain, ana I have had no occasion to do so.

Sup, Hawkes said that Mr. Cronin bod honestly performed his contract so for, and as he was losing a great deal of money in supplying primo mutton, be should not be oompelled to do more than was specially mentioned in the oontraot.

It was bis opinion that the matter should be referred to the Law Committee. Sup. Strong said the contract called for Iobs or more than the specific amount of pounds stated in the contract, and it has been the oustom of tho Board of Supervisors to require the contractors to furnish moro than tbe specific estimate, if it Bhould be needed. He movod that tbey should report adversely on the petition. Carried, Supervisors Hawkes and Harman voting in the negative.

Mr. Short, tho Supervisor's store keeper, at Flatbusb, stated that the supply for the remainder of the fiscal year would roach about 8,000 pounds, Mr, Cronin has given general satisfaction by strictly fulfilling his contract. To require him to furnish an additional 8,000 pounds of mutton would entail a very severe loss, indeed, it is said, will cripple his business, as he is a man of very moderate olroumstaneee. ME.
