Before Judge Sutherland.
Almost the entire session of this Court yesterday
was occupied in arguing a demurrer and re-
joinder to 1t In the case of Abraham Greenthal
who, it will be remembered, was tried, convicted
and sentenced to the State Prison for Ave years for
grand larceny at the historic extended November
term Of the General Sessions. Mr.. Howe secured q

served a year OF his sentence in the State Prison.
the ground OF the illegaity OF the Jury by whom
the accused was tried. The prosecution now seek
to retry the same indictment, to which the prison
er's counsel object, mainly on the ground that
Greenthal has been once in jeopardy. The de-
fendant was not present in court yesterday during
Oakley Hail and Mr.. VIM f. Howe. The presence
OF the ex-Mayor In the General Sessions gave add-
sae he bs Sns ss s
cussed and the opposite quotations from ancient
and modern eases bearing upon the question at
and brilliant rhetoric for which the ex-kxecutive
and ex,District Attorney Is distinguished.
the question which Ills Honor was called upon to
decide was a somewhat novel and very important
one--viz., whether man who had, in the full
constitutional sense OF the word been fully put In
jeopardy shall be placed upon trial again after
having suffered his execution.
Assistant District Attorney Rollins, in replying
to Mr.. Halls able and ingenious argument claimed
that the accused was not put In jeopardy, from
the TACT that he was not convicted by legally con-
stituted Jury, and cited numerous cases to show
that the defendant was not put In jeopardy In the
legal sense OF that term.
Judge sutherland intimated that such was his
view but Grccnthal having served part Of his SEN
tence presented somewhat novel question, which
he would fully examine. He took the papers In
the case and reserved his decision.
Grand Larceny.
John Can, who was indicted for robbery In the
first degree, pleaded guilty to grand larceny. He
was charged with stealing $55, with force and
violence, from John Hudson Oh the 18th February,
at the corner OF Spring and Washington streets.

BROOKLYN CORONERs' FEES.

Among the bills presented for payment NJ the
last meeting of the Kings county Board Of Super
visors was one from Coroner Jones for holding an
inquest over the body Of q man who died from
lyrangitis. Supervisor stillwell, OF the Finance
Committee, was DESTROYS Of knowing by what
right the Coroner held an inquest over the man
alluded to- who died from natural causes and who
had peen attended by physician. The Coroner
explained that deceased had not been attended
by regularly qualified physician, and the
Board OF Health had refused to recognize the GER
tlficate or TO grant burial certificate The case,
therefore, came within the jurisdiction OF the Cor
oner. An effort is being made In the Board OF Su-
pervsors to reduce the fees OF the Coroners to $40
per case. They now receive $12.

Responsibility for Payment On Raised
Checks.
Before Judge LarremOre.
A sharp practitioner in the "check raising" busi-
ness some time ago purchased from the Hart Manu-
featuring Company goods to the amount Of $ls,
gave in payment a 500 bill and received in
change a check for $S1 43, drawn on the Bank of
North America. This check was raised to 1851 so,
and presented to the National Bank OF the Common
wealth and paid. The latter bank In its exchanges
with the Bank OF North America, handed in the
check which was received and the account
balanced as the full amount. subsequently the
forgery was discovered, and thereupon the Bank
OF North America brought suit against the National
check and refused to pay the excess, to compel
the payment. After hearing the testimony, which
was only substantially a confirmation OF the above
statement, the Judge ordered verdict for the
plaintiff. ts
Valuable Information for Mothers-in-
Law.
Mr. william Winchell married a daughter OF Mrs.
Maria Merritt. The latter, like other mothers.ln-
law, was in the habit OF visiting her daughter.
One OF these visits was made on Sunday. While
the mother -in.law was chatting pleasantly with
one OF her little granddaughter she heard noise
in an adjoining room, and directly her sOn-in-law
opened the door and elected his wife from the
room. She demonstrated, ana told her son-in-law
that such conduct was highly indecorous, and par
ticularly on the Sabbath. Upon this, as Mrs. Mer-
rift iurther asserts, her sonin-law seized hold OF
her and attempted to eject her from the house alto
gether, and that the result was her falling and
fracturing her hip BONE On account OF this injury
Mrs. Merritt brought suit against her son-iu-law
Tor $4,000 damages. The defendant failed to put
in an appearance and the jury gave her verdict
for 81, 900 damages.
