THE BROOKS CASE.
The Motion for n New Trial of the Convicted
ASsassins-

ASS0sslns.
This morning Messrs. Mann and Cassidy appeared
in the Court OF Quarter Sessions, before Judge Lud
low to argue the motion made for new trial in the
case of Hugh Marrow and James Dougherty, con-
victed of assault and battery with intent to kill
James J Brooks. AS the to exceptions taken to the
rulings of the court in regard to the challenges
made to jurors, the arguments were limited.
The main ground for the motion was in reference
to the witness Mclaughlin, counsel maintaining
that as the Commonwealth had called him as their
witness they were bound by his sworn testimony
and were not entitled to contradict him or impeach
him by direct testimony, and should be, at the
1arthest allowed only to prove that he made other
and different statements but the court enormously
permitted the District Attorney to prove, by Mayor
Fox, what those other statements were.
AsO error was committed in permitting the
District Attorney to make, in the hearing OF The jury
the statement he did make concerning the absence
OF Policeman Kelly, and the Importance of his at
tendance, which undoubtedly had a tendency unduly
to influence the jury.
The Judge likewise made a mistake in sending for
the jury before they had voluntarily sgnlhed their
readiness to render a verdict; the ateness OF the
hour the tedousness of the trial, and the summons
from the Court must all have combined TO deter the
jury ION giving to the matter that calm and mature
deliberaton which justice required also the taking
of the verdict Sunday morning was discussed, but
appeared TO make no impression.
The argument not concluded on account Of
Judge Ludow's presence being needed in the Com
mon Pleas.

THE CASE OF ANNIE PEOPLEs.-As, by an unusual
oversight and omission the part OF all the papers
in the city, except one the termination OF the OF
Annie Peoples was incompletely reported, it is due
to DR.. Addine Hewson, who appeared as witness
on the trial. that the following statement should be
published
In the testimony which the counsel for the defense
produced for his client he did not prove, as in his
opening address to the jury he had promised TO do,
that Dr. HewsOns professional associates at the
Hospital had repudiated the use of dry
earth as a dressing, and the cross-eXami-
nation OF those gentlemen by the
District Attorney elected the facts, that they had
applied to offensive sores preparation OF which the
chief component is clay, and that none OF them be-
leved it to be irritating The counsel for the de-
fense did not produce single witness, to whom such
dressings had been applied TO establish that they are
irritating, or in any way Injurious; nor did he pro-
duce single witness to cOrrObOrate the testimony
OF the chief witness for the defense, Dr. Chapman.
These facts, coupled with that of the feeling which
this witness entertained against DIR. Hewson and
with the actual abandonment by the counsel for the
defense of his adopted line even before any testi-
mony in reouttal (Which would have included that of
patients treated with such dressing, and OF eminent
surgeons insthe city, who had been subp9naedD had
been produced, show that the allegation
of malpractice was untrue, and could not be sus-
tanned. Judge Ludlow, in his charge to the jury,
set this forth very emphaticaly. lie said that 'the
Commonwealth had only pressed for a verdict Of
murder OF the second degree. The counsel for the
prise ner had conceded that his opening address as
10 the matreament had failed. There was evidence
as 10 fighting, Sufficient perhaps, to reduce the
grade, ana the counsel on both sides had agreed TO
take verdict OF voluntary manslaughter.'

Congress votes the money the Department will
commence the work.

TaIing Out the Bodies from the Ruins OF the
Asy Ium.
Special Despatch to the Ecentng Telegraph.
GRANVILLE, Ohio, Oct 30.-The terrible
catastrophe which has just occurred here has
thrown deep gloom over our town. The Lu-
matte Asylum was quite a large building. The
fire, it is said, originated in the culinary de-
partment, and by reason of the very dry and old
material comprising the structure the flames
covered it with fearful rapidity. During the
excitement attendant upon the discovery of the
flames, all seemed to have forgottenEthat in one
of the upper stories ten demented persons were
confined.
lhese persons were immured in room that
was strongly barricaded-since their paroxysms
OF rage, which held almost constant control over
them, rendered such a confinement necessary to
the safety of the other inmates of the establish
ment. Their shrieks were appalling as the
tames hemmed them in. Desperate efforts were
made to save them but the flames remorse-
lessly checked all advances of those who would
have rescued them.
The building is now pile of hot and steaming
ruins. Preparations are making to rescue the
unfortunate persons who lie beneath the debris.
The scene is surrounded with dense throng of
people, and the feeling of grief is intense.
