/ Dudley Field, counsel for Tweed,
statedshe was not ready to plead or
make a motion to quasl,, notice Of
this-iildictmen having been received
only. Within a few days. The district
attorney said it WAS evident the de-
fendant intended to pursue his old
tactics and staye off proceedings as
long as possible. This was disclaim-
ed BY Field after long argument, in
which it was argued on one side that
there was no reason why this should

other that no such favors had been
shown him, he having been outraged
by illegal confinement.

lions was an unleard Of thing till the

have time to examine the indictments,
but would not give his formal decis-
ion until later in the day. The court

On the indictment found by the
