The Trial Of Mayor Hall.

New YORK, March 11.-An immense
crowd endeavored to obtain admittance
to the Common Pleas Court this morning,
to witness the trial of Mayor Hall. The
police were called in requisition before
order could be restored. One OF the ju.
rors was prevented by sickness from at.
tending. A certificate was read from his
physician, stating that it would cndanger
the life Of the juror to attend for several
days. After some debate from The coun.
sci, Judge DAILY adjourned the Court until
Friday morning. The physician states
that Clark, the sick Juror, is suffering
from greatnervous prostration, and having
had an attack Of paralysis two years ago,
he urges that he be entirely relieved from
service on the jury. Lest the suggestion
OF the physician occasion debate, the
Court is to have the usual legal investga-
tion in the physical condition of the
juror. Halls counsel were anxious to
have the case go on despite the sick juror,
and one Of his counsel urged that it be
postponed only until tomorrow. II the
sick juror be not conValescent by Monday
next, the time Of adjournment, tho whole
case will have to be tried over again.

% WASHINGTON, March 11.-Colone

V. McNally, chief clerk Of the Ord,
nance Bureau, to-day produced copies Oi
letters and records before the Senate
Committees investigation of the sales o.
arms. In reply to questions to that effect
he said that he did not know that the
Government officer who made the sales
realized one dollar in consequence of the
sale Of these ordnance stores. ts-
Colonel Burnet was also examined, and
in reply to question by Senator Schur2
he said he did not know of any written
record of the construction put by the
Secretary OF War on statute GS in relation
to the sale of ordinance stores; he had
always understood that this construction
was clearly put by Senator Sclnrz in
the following question ~ ..u
1t appears from advertisements here
that two thousand brccch.loadcrs were
advertised for sale, and bids were invited
thereupon publicly. Now party desir.
ing to buy arms might not desire to buy
two thousand, but might desire to buy;
two thousand, therefore, would not be
sold, and the two thousand not having
been sold, would you consider the De
partment authorized to sell all the rest a,
private sale on the strength of that adver,
tisement? Is that the construction?
Answer-Yes; that would he my con
struction.
Colonel Burncts examination will bt
continued at the next meeting.
