The bill of costs had been taxed at Supreme Court,
Chambers, an appeal was taken to the General
Term, and thence the case was carried to the
Court OF Appeals, where the original bill OF costs
was affirmed This was legal victory for the
commissioners but they nave thus far failed In the
most important and vital point OF the whole mat
ter-gettlng their money.
Finding the Comptroller was backward IN COM
0G forward to settle their little bill, motion was
made yesterday in supreme Court, Chambers,
before Judge Fancher, for peremptory mandamuS
against the Comptroller, directing him 10 pay to

BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS
COURT or OYER AND TERMlNER.

Arraignment OF Alleged Murderers-
Genuine Bogus Deputy sheriHs-Tho
Grand Jury Observation-Disclosures In
iicted for Murder In the First Degree.
The Court OF oyer and Terminer entered yester.
lay on It's September term, 80 that the business OF
Ihe fall and winter campaign in this branch OF our
criminal court may be said to have fairly begun.
Occupying the bench was Judge Daniels, Of Buffalo,
mho during the time he has held Supreme
pourt, Chambers during the past summer, has
made himself widely and iavorably known to the
Bar Of this city as clear-headed, sound and dis
eliminating lawyer. Our city criminals brought
before him for trial may be sure OF rigid and
strictly impartial justice. The court room, as
few alleged murderers arraigned to plead to IN
iictments found against them, there WAS nothing
10 satisfy their cravings lor something sensational
% the criminal line.
Four persons were called up to answer to indict-
nents for murder in the first degree. These were
William Larkin Peter McKenna Charles Coburn
and John McManus. The particulars Of the homt.
:ides with which they are respectively charged
nave already been iully given in the HERALD, and
II is therefore unnecessary TO recapitulate them.
a. to aer wets Mr. .o
7. Howe, who had been engaged by each as coun.
sci, nterposed Tor them plea OF not guilty 1t was
subsequently arranged that their trials be set
down for October and meantime they were re.
manded to their quarters in the City Prison.
GENUINE DEPUTY SHERIFFS OR OTHERWISE.
Edward Florence and John Breen are charged
with having swindled poor woman In Chatham
street, under the preteXt that they were deputy
BherifIs. Mr.. Abe Ii. llummel moved to have their
0ail fixed pending the appeal from the Judgment
fOund against them in the Court OF Special Ses-
yons where they were convicted of the offence
charged against them and each sentenced to the
Penltentiary for three months. Mr.. Hummel sub
mitted an afildavit OF Under Snerin stephens that
1t tue time OF the alleged onence they were deputy
Dheriis; and as the case had been carried to the
Supreme Court General Term, on appeal, he desired
they might be admitted TO bail pending the decision
On such appeal. Judge Daniels took the papers,
feservng his decision.
INDICTMENTS BY THE GRAND JURY.
The Grand Jury brought IN some dozen indict-
ments; but excepting one Tor murder in the first
degree against Michael Broderick, who recently
stabbed his Two sons IN a tenement house In Car.
mine street, they were chiehy for minor offences.
rumor prevailed that some pubic oficials mad
been indicted, but such indictments were found.
The story probably got started rom one OF the
Jurors stating that "among those indicted there
were some old timers.n
The Court adjourned, to meet at eleven O'Clock
