The motion to postpone the trial of
Thomas C. Fields, who is charged with
fraud against the city, was denied and the
trial set for the twentieth instant, Fields
counsel said he was unaware of Fields
whereabouts.
William NJ. Tweed's counsel moved to
quash the Indictment in the Oyer and Ter
MINER which was for a cheat in converting
to his own use an order on the city.
The grounds of objection were that the
Indictment does not allege that the sigma
ture of Pace was forged or otherwise and
therefore could not be proved properly; that
after the said Indictment and others, the
same bills of keyser Il Co. were found
against the defendant in the general ses-
sions for larceny and forgery, and that the
last indictment supercedes the first under
the statute; also that what is stolen can not
be got by cheat. The counsel also claimed
that Tweed was prosecuted by multiplicity
of indictments. The argument was ad-
iourned at the request of counsel represent
ing the attorney general to Thursday.
The Liberal Republican Executive Com
mittee have issued an address calling upon
the Liberals to work with renewed energy
for the November election, as there are
twenty States casting nearly 200 electoral
votes that they can still carry if they only
will. The address says they are in danger
of defeat, mainly because some faint hearts
are discouraged, and urges the Liberals to
resolve that by stout hearts and strong
arms the Liberal cause and candidates shall
be borne onward to a decisive triumph.
