THRILLING SCENE.
A Church Floor Falls In During Divine Service.

Last evening, about o'clock, the Westmin-
ster Presbyterian Church, better known as DR..
Swings Church, corner OF Ontario and North
Dearborn streets, was the scene of an accident
that might have been frightful in its nature and
fatal in its results, but rs good fortune would
have it, the consequences were of q very trivial
character. The church is a small wooden edi-
flee, capable of seating some three hundred peo-
pie comfortably, but last evening was crowded
to almost double its sitting capacity. The SER
vices had cOmmenced the Doctor had begun
the evening prayer, and scarcely dozen
words had passed his lips, when loud
crash was heard throughout the church. The
doctor paused in his prayer, the congregation
looked around and then at each other all won
dering what could have produced the noise. No
one stirred. The surprise over, the doctor re-
sumed the prayer OF the evening, which he
flnished and then commenced the second lesson.
He had scarcely given utterance to three sem
tences when another and louder crash was
heard, which was Immediately followed by q
sinking of the floor The congregation now
became thoroughly alarmed prayer-books and
hymn-books were hurrledly dropped, and each
and every member rushed for the door. The
pressure was too great. With crush the floor
rent in twain precipitating large number OF
ladies and gentlemen into the halt-frozen mud
below.
mainder of the audience, now panic-strcken,
made wild stampede through the doors. The
unfortunate victims OF mysterious disappear
ance, after their fright had left them, found
their way out of their unpleasant dilemma, and,
ON investigation, were delighted to discover that
the only damage inflicted was sustained by silks
and broadcloths.
After the church had been cleared, some ad.
yenturous gentlemen entered to survey the
damage to the building. In the course of their
Investigations they found numerous gloves,
handkerchiefs, and chignons. The last-named
are now awaiting their fair owners at the resi-
dence of the sexton of the church. Chicago

THE HIGH CHURCH LUNACY CASE.
Further Argument Before the Supreme
Court-The Alleged Contempt Of Counsellor

Further argument before the supreme
Court-The Alleged Contempt Of Counsellor
Pritchett.
This case came up again in New York yester-
day, before Judge Cardozo, in the Special Term
of the Supreme Court pursuant to the adjourn
ment from Friday last
Ex-Judge Strong continued his argument, op-
posing the motion made by Mr. Shea, counsel
for the alleged lunatic Mrs. Caroline q. Allen,
to have Counsellor Pritchett punished for con-
tempt of court.
Judge Cardozo at the first hearing of this
case, strongly intimated that Mr.. Pritchett de-
served punishment for going before Judge
Dwight of the Seventh Judicial district, and
getting an order staying all the proceedings
then pending before him (Cardozo), and likened
the action to counsers going into another room
in the new Court House and getting a stay from
another Judge during the trial of a case.
Ex-Judge Strong insisted that the two pro-
ceedings were not parallel. He cited the statutes
of this State on the subject of contempts at con-
siderable length, and concluded his remarks by
urging upon the Court the Importance of taking
a broad and liberal view of the whole matter
Mr.. Prltchett was, he said, young man JusS
commencing the practice of the law, and he felt
confident that in what he had done he intended
no contempt of Court.
Mr.. Shea said the gentleman on the other side
was mistaken if he supposed that the primary
object OF this motion was to punish the young
man. What he and his client wanted was to
have the law settled in the first place as to
whether it was legitimate to have orders and
counter orders in the way they had been
obtained; in the second place his client, Mrs.
Caroline G. Allen, though sane, and so adjudged
to be by numerous witnesses, experts some of
them, and so found to be by the report of Mr..
Jarvis, the referee, had been compelled to part
with her under clothing to raise money TO pay
the fees of certain attorneys.
While what we regarded as idle questions
were being discussed her property was being
dissipated. He had received no fee, and eX-
pected none. Messrs Burton and Ten Eyck,
both reputable counsellors of this Court, had in
formed him of the way she had been compelled
to part with her personal clothing.
Judge Cardozo said that counsel should pro-
duce an affidavit at the next hearing in regard
to the property being dissipated aud he would
on his own motion restrain the persons SO doing.
The case stands adjourned.

PLEASURES OF TRAVEL.
Drunken Conductor Assaults the PnssenRe

A Drunken Conductor Assaults the Passengers
an EmtRrunt Train.
The Cleveland Herald of the 20th inst has the
following:--
At T30 o'clock on Sunday evening, as the emil
grant train arrived on the Atlantic and Great
Western Railway, Officer Schroeder observed a
great cOmmotion among the passengers On
entering one of the cars he saw burly English
man brandishing knife and q club, and he no.
ticed that the others in the car appeared pre-
pared TO attack any one who might enter. As
he had on police uniform they did not assault
him, though he at one time thought they in
tended to- On conversing with the persons who
were so greatly agitated, he learned that the
passengers had been shamefully insulted and
abused, and were only on the defensive, evil
IDENTIFY anticipating repetition of what had oc-
Cured only short time before.
1t seems that about sixty miles from Cleve-
land a large, powerful man, crazy with liquor
had boarded the train and treated the passen-
gers in n most disgraceful manner On first
entering the train he had attacked Swede and
bruised him considerably. Then he crossed the
aisle and seiZing German woman, seated in
the midst of her five children, he grossly in
suited her. He next struck an Englshman in
the face, and proceeded to take improper liber-
ties with some young girls.
By this time the emigrants had got tairly
aroused, and the men began an attack on the
drunken scoundrel. A severe fight ensued, and
the intruder was getting the worst OF it, when a
brakeman stepped into the car and eXtinguished
the lights, thus enabling the assaiant to escape.
Later in the evening, after the train had
reached this city, the same fellow made his APP

M'FARLAND ARRAIGNED.
He Pleads Not Guilty-A Great Rush TO See
the Notorious Homicide. Al


Long before the hour of opening the Court of
General Sessions yesterday morning the corri-
doris of the hall leading to the courtroom were
filed by an eager crowd anxious TO obtain a
sight of Daniel Mcfarland as he passed to and
from the prison, to be arraigned at the bar of
the Court for the murder of Albert ID. Richard
son.
As soon as the doors were opened, every seat
in the room was filed, and as many crowded
into the limited space reserved for spectators as
were permitted by the doorkeeper to enter,
great numbers were doubtless unable to obtain
admission. At II o'clock Recorder Hackett took
his seat on the bench. Soon afterwards District
Attorney Garvin entered, accompanied by As
sistant District Attorneys Fellows and Tweed,
and the prisoners counsel, Mr.. John Graham,
Mr.. Elbridge Gerry, and Mr.. Charles s. Spencer
also came into Court, and took their seat in
front of the place usually reserved for the
counsel. Mcfarland was then brought forward
by an officer, and seated Immediately behind his
counsel, who entered at once into conversation
with him.
M'FARLAND's APPEARANCE.
He was neatly dressed and cleanly shaven,
but he had very pale, careworn look, showing
that the peculiar circumstances of his position
and his confinement have begun to tell on him.
Still, he appeared calm, and betrayed no emo
tion whatever.
ARRAIGNMENT OF THE PRISONER.
The proceedings were opened by District
Attorney Garvin, who rose and inquired-"Is
the court ready to proceed?" to which the Re-
corder nodded affirmatively,
Mr.. Garvin--I move your Honor that Daniel
Mcfarland be brought to the bar.
Mr.. Sparks Qhe clerk) said, "Put Daniel Nc
Farland at the bar" whereupon Mr.. Mcfarland
and one of his counsel Mr.. Charles Spencer,
rose.
Clerk-Daniel Mcfarland, you are indicted
for murder in the first degree, in having caused
the death of Albert ID. Richardson on the night
of the 25th of November last; how say you to
that charge, are you guilty or not guilty?
HE PLEADS NOT GUILTY.
Mr.. Spencer-The defendant pleads not guilty.
Mr.. Mcfarland was then taken back to prison,
and after a short consultation together his
counsel also left the cOurt.-M. I. World, tO-daN.

Remarkable Dramatic Entertainments at Stein
way Hall Last Evening
Miss Anna Dickinson last evening achieved
the greatest conquest of her life-that is SO far
as we or the public know. She actually cap
tured the arch-enemy Of the wOmans rights re-
FORM the Hoa. Horace Greeley, and led him in
triumph upon the stage of Steinway Hall, where
she acclaimed for an hour, before 2000 people,
upon the wrongs of her sex, and the glorious
future in store for them when they shall swell
the great army of repeaters, and see their chosen
Representatives high in the councils OF the ring.
As Mr.. Greeley shambled towards the front of
the stage with his fair captor behind him, his
countenance wore look of sheepishness as if
conscious OF his absurd inconsistency. He
looked like the lion in love, or Nick Bottom in
the tolls of Titania.
The title of Miss Dickinson's harangue was
"Whited Sepulchres."
Mr.. Greeley only wanted the historical old
white coat to pass for the living embodiement
of the subject.
The Hon. Whitelaw Reid, of the Tribune, was
present, of course. He applauded Miss Diclkin-
sons burning eloquence to the echo.-N Y. Sun,

THE BROOKS CASE.
This morning Messrs. Mann and Cassidy appeared
IN court to try the case Of Robert Hamilton, Peter
Donohue, and James Atwell who are charged with

that two material witnesses for the Commonwealth
were absent; and could not beprocured to-day, and
Therefore he was obliged to ask that the cause be
Mr.. Mann, for the prisoner, opposed theE continu
ance earnestly and complained Of the hardship OF
keeping Hamilton in prison under S20,O0O ball and
yet deferring his trial for so long time.
The District Attorney assured the Court that he
had DO desire unnecessarily to postpone the trial
the contrary, he was extremely anxious to dispose
OF IT. and would try It at the earliest day. As to
OF the prisoners Peter ponohue, alias Bottlcs,' he
did not believe there lcient testimony TO

The Indictment against Donohue, alias "Bottles,o

found by the Grand Jury upon McLaughlins testi-

that no reliance Is to be placed in It, which was stated

the Case by the evidence alone, there was but one
course fer them to pursue and that was TO acquit.
One of the jurors forgetting the tenor of the oath
he had taken declined to Join In such verdict, be-
cause he didn't believe in allowing known associ-
ate OF infamous villains to prowl about the c0mmu-
nifty without being put under bonds or other re-
strant from committing crime. Being reminded
by the District Attorney that juror had nothing to
do with this question, but was only to decide whether
defendant was guilty or not guilty OF the crime OF
which he was accused, he at length consented to q
verdict Of not guilty, which was accordingly rem
dered.
