TOMBs POLICE COURT.
Before Judge Kllbreth.


A NEW PHASE IN THE DUNCAN SHERMAN ROB
Berry.
Two days ago telegraphc despatch was re-
ceived from London, Ont, Canada, by the police
authorities. stating that william F. Leslie late re-.
cetving teller OF Duncan, Sherman d Co., bankers,
now under arrest aud on his way to this city on q
charge OF robbery, to the amount OF $25, 900. in
Guiding $4,000 IN gold certificates, had con-
fessed that Ella Shaw, OF this city, was a
partner In the conspiracy whereby the rob-
berry was effected, and the prompt arrest OF
that person was effected. Yesterday Miss Shaw
was taken before Justice Ktlbreth. she IS blonde,
Of twenty-five or tWentY-thIee, plump and rather
good-ooking. She was neatly attired, amt
demanded an examination on the ground that mis-
clients arrest was without Justification and as
serted his ability 10 prove her innocence. An eX-
animation was set down for Monday next. When
the prisoner learned that Leslie had been
captured in Canada by Ptngerton's detectives she
ned the city and was captured at the Beach House,
Coney Island. The acquaintance OF the absconding
cashier with Ter dates only about year back,
and her wtes have lea Leslie TO ruin. He has been
brought up in Duncan, sherman o.is banking
house and till he met this woman he was con-
sidered most exemplary man. He Is a native OF
Inverness, Scotland and Is the son or very respec
table parents When Leslie left here he fed by the
New York Central Railroad TO Suspension Bridge,
and thence rounded MIS- way TO London, Ontario.
Detective Pinkerton stated yesterday that he eX-
peoted TO capture a considerable amount OF the
stolen SIS, 0Oo and for this reason important de-
velOpments are expected next week

TILE COMING CORN CROP.

There is every indication that the com
Ing crop Of corn will be tue largest on re.
cord, not excepting the great one Of 1872.
Many causes combine to this end. Iii the
West a large quantity Of wheat was plowed
up and planted with corn under the i'm
preston that the wheat was to much in
jured BY the severe winter to pay, and then
IN the Eastcra States the prospect for huy
was 80 poor that wherever corn could be
planted it WIS put in, so that the fodder
might IN some measure make up for the
d ,ticiency Of the hav. II is estimated
that the c,eage Of corn Is fully one fourth
m ire than last year. and ifso this is an
enormous increase. From all ections tile
crop is reported as growing finely, and with
the increased acreage an immense yie
may be confidently anticipated.
