PARIS, Oct. H. 1873.
The court room at the Grand Trianon was
crowded to-day.
The examination OF Marshal Bazaine was con-
tinued.
In answer to various questions by the President,
the accused declared that he never was fully in
formed that MacMahon had been made subordinate
to him. He denied that he received any telegram
appointing him generalissimo.
The dispatches in question were produced in the
court.
Bazaine explained his apparent neglect to CON-
municate freely with the Emperor Napoleon, on
the ground that he thought the latter was fully ac-
.quainted with the situation.
He read despatch which was sent from the
Prussian headquarters during the siege OF Metz to
the German Ambassador at Constantlnople, stating
that "the Germans would in no case march on
Parisn
Bazaine reiterated his assertion that he was not
Informed OF MacMahons advance until the 3Oth OF
August. In reference TO this and several other
points he offered adavits in support OF his state
ment.
The President coldly said they 'swould be re-
ferred, with other afdavits, to the Court when the
time for the examination OF witnesses had
arrived
The feeling is that to-day's proceedings have
been unfavorabe to Bazaine

or the hundreds OF claims now pending against
the city, the case mentioned below is only one OF
the many in which the Comptroller demonstrates
his utter disregard for laws relative to paying
honest debts due by the city, and sets up his
superior Judgment to that of our highest courts.
The following letter was presented to his Honor
Mayor Havemeyer by ex-Judge Edmonds few days
ag0:-

The above letter, 1t appears, from information
obtained was at once transmitted by the Mayor TO
the Comptroller and that ofncer sent for the
attorneys in the case. One or them waited on the
Comptroller, who proposed to give city bonds in
payment and said that If they were not accepted
ne should appeal from the last Judgment ior
81 902.
The proposition was not accepted. and under
order OF the Comptroller, and without the approval
OF the corporation Counsel an appeal has been
taken.
and the Sheriff's fees will add 49, 900 more to
the claim.
The question now recurs to this point:-If the
s1s7o0o Justly due by the city, as the Courts OF
the highest jurisdiction have determined and the
Comptroller has admitted by proposing to issue
sl15,ooO in city bonds and the balance In cash in
few days nen Wny a. does ne not provide at
other hand, the Comptroller stated to the claim
ants attorneys, III the proner OF the bonds were
not accepted he would appeal the cases."
and Mr. Comptroller Green has placed
himself in a contradictory position from
SELF There is still another query connected with
the Comptroller's PROPOSAL Has he any power TO
pay in bonds OF the city without Offering such Sc
curities TO the highest bidder ~
The solution OF the problem which the settlement
OF Mr.. Guidet's case involves must necessarily
AFFECT other similar claims, and is now looked Tor
ward to with intense interest by the many con-
tractors who daily besiege the Comptroer's Office
Tor their justly earned pay.
