arguing the C0Ses
The attendance of ladies of our city on
this case was much smaller this morning
than the day before, and this fact was one
OF very disappointing nature, as the pres
ence of many was counted on and eagerly
looked for.
The Marshals yesterday were evidently
suspicious on account of the great number
of persons present in the courtroom, and the
prisoners We're removed from their old posi-
ton surrounding counsel, and placed in a
corner by themselves, and guarded, and this
morning they occupy the same place.
On the Court assembling at 10 o'clock,
Mr. Bryan, of counsel for defense, took the
floor, to argue fully the law of the case.
He was still addressing the jury when this
report closed.
At 12:45 P. NJ, Mr.. William r. Whitaker,
counsel for the defense, commenced his ar
gument in the above case. He reviewed in
most elaborate manner the evidence which
has taken SO much time to gather. His
style was forcible and to the point, while
the concise manner in which he laid down
to the jury the true reading of the law, re-
hected much credit upon the profession of
which he is an ornament
Al 63O P. NJ. his remarks were brought TO
a close. The court then adjourned over
until Monday, June Sth, at 8 A. NJ.

TAMMANY AND THE ALDERMEH.

In response to question as TO whether Tam
many intends TO nominate two more candidates
for Aldermen-at-L Large, Mr.. Kelly answered that
the idea had been given up. "rhe legal advisers Of
the organization.n Mr.. Kelly said, .have informed
II that the new charter, even n IL be unconsttu-
tional has force until IL Is declared unconsttu.
tional BY the Courts. A doubt has also entered
the minds OF the Tammany chieftains tnat the
restriction OF the voting for Aldermen at Large
makes the new charter unconstitutional" Mr..
Kelly fur ther added, ..that Tammany would not
nominate and elect six Aldermen at-Large for
fear that, as the case would then be Drought to
the Courts, the charter would be declared con-
sttutionai and the entire election thus annulledn
