large crowds of people began to assemble
along Market street, waiting for the
counting of the vote,
The GAZETTE office was soon jammed
with excited and eager Democrats, while
the the Democratic headquarters were
crowded all evening. Returns were re-
ceixed here from various other States.

fruitless rejoicings.
About twelve o'clock, the Democrats

at his cffice, Ninth and Market street, who
made brief response, reviewing the cam

seized him, and took him down Fifth street,
towards King, for the purpose OF taking
him to the Custom House.
A large crowd soon collected, and Ser
geant Legg, who came along just then,
rushed into the crowd to see what was the
matter. As soon as he approached the
Murshal, the latter drew his revolver and
ordered him TO stand back. The crowd
then closed In, and the two officials became
|seperated.
Sergeant Legg then procured from Es-
tquire ONeill warrant for Marshal
Dunn's arrest, and promptly served it
The Marshal was arrested and taken to
the City Hall, where Esquire O'Neill
gave him hearing and held him to bail

A small gathering OF long haired young men ana
short-haired young women might have been found
last evening on the third door OF Plimpton Hall,
in Stuyvesant street. This meeting was composed
OF the component but heterogeneous parts OF the
organization known as the Young Mems Woman
Suffrage League, and the subject OF discussion
was, as usual. consistent with the name OF the
league. Waldorf H. Philips was announced to
make an address In opposition to woman'a

ington, Dutchess county woman named Emily
Place and her sister, Q Mrs. Cronkrite, have had
an interview to-day with Coroner Wilson
Hicks, OF this city, and requested him to
exhume the body OF Harrison Brown, now lying
in the churchyard at Bungal, this county, stating
that to the best Of their knowledge and belief. he
was poisoned by his wife. Harrison Brown, they
stated. resided near Snunpke station, on the
Dutcness ana Columbia Railroad. He died Novem-
ber 26. Early in the day he was around as usual
and apparently In the best OF health He was taken
suddenly Ill, according TO the statement made
to the Coroner, and died In three hours In great
agony. Emily Place claims he was poisoned, and
stated to Coroner she believed his wife gave him
strychnine In some wine, or some other poison.
She charges that Brown and his wife did not live
happily toge tner, and tnst on several occasions
sne openly threatened to poison him. Miss Place
said that on The night Brown died MIS- wlie acted
looked deasnly pale. There was :
NO PHYSICIAN PRESENT -
at his death. 1t was also stated that arsenic had
been lound IN the house on several occasions and
destroyed. 1t is alleged, also that long before
hts death Brown, who Is said to have had about
he should not leave MS wife cent OF money. On the
night he died the only persons In the house were
mis- wife, nelce and hired man. Another person to
whom the Coroner went tor Information told him
that Emily Places reputation is bad, and that she
had always had trouble with the Brown amlly,
being step-daughter. and that she had tre-
quently made bold ana dangerous assertions In
regard to them. This person also told the Coro-
ner that whatever Mrs. Cronkrlte told MIN ne
could rely upon and she told him the same story
as did Emily Place the Coroner regards the case
as serious one. DR.. Pult2, II Is said, examined
Brown alter death, but did not give his opinion as
to the cause OF his demise. IL was understood
when he was buried that ne died OF heart disease,
and II was so given out 1t remains to be seen
what will be the result OF the interview with tho
Coroner. II ne decides to take the body up the
day, when post-mOrtem examination viii take

A SINGULAR INDICTMENT.

Sudden Termination OF . Murder Trial
in Westc hester County-Ths Supposed
Fatal ARRAY Between Col0red Men at
New Rochelle.
In the Court OF Oyer and Termiuer at White
Plains, westchsster county, Justice Pratt presfd-
ing. yesterday, John Pugsley (colored) was placed
on trial for the alleged murder OF Samuel Eveson
(also colored), at New Rochelle during the month
OF May last. 1t appears that both the accused
and tho deceased were friends, and lived
near each other IN the village named. The
prisoner, however, succeeded In causing
the wife OF Eveson to leave the latter ana take up
her abode with him, he having previously dis
carded his own sable mate in order to facilitate
his salacious Intentions This action OF the pris-
oner naturally exasperated the deceased, who,
meeting hlm on the street, provoked fight with
him, during which deceased was kicked In the
abdomen BY his antagonls,, and, having been
carried home, died in about week afterward.
During the post-mortem examtnatt0ni 1t was
found that the bowels presented two or three per-
tents mad passed into the abdominal cavity, pro-
ducing peritonitis ana death. The doctors were OF

the prisoner ana the deceased, nearly all OF them

when portion OF the medical testimony had
been adduced, which went to show that on the
post-mortem examination no external marks OF
violence were found on the body, AMI that, In the
opinion OF the doctors, death had been caused BY
liberation OF the bowels produced by disease the
Court remarked that IL seemed useless to waste
any further ame in the matter, as there could be
no charge OF either murder or manslaughter made
out, and that the only question for the jury TO
consider at that stage was whether the accused
was guilty OF assault and battery on the deceased
District Attorney Briggs colncided with the
Court, stating that he had been simply doing
MS duty in presenting the testimony to the jury in
behalf of>tne people. Alter few remarks De-
tween opposing counsel Y was agreed that the
Court should give the case to the Jury Accordingly
Justice Pratt instructed that body in effect that
if they iound from the evidence that the deceased

whereupon the prisoner was discharged.
