A POLICE OFFICER on TRIAL.

CAPT. KILLILEA CHARGED WITH RECEIVING MONEY
FROM sALooN-KFEPERs.
The trial of Capt. Killilea, for receiving
money the performance of police duty from the pro
pretOrs of saloon, resumed yesterday before the
full Board of Police Commissioners President Matsel
acted as chief Judge and Commissioners VOorhs, Dis
becker and Duryce advisers Chief Clerk liawley
conducted the for the prosecution; Col. Fellows
and Mr. Brooke acted counsel for the defendant II
was expected that Mr. and MrP. kasefanG, who were
alleged to have paid Capt. killea money through
Augustus Miller, late Sergeant OF the Twenty second
Precinct Police, would have attended the hearing
witnesses for prosecution These witnesses did not
answer when their names were called and could not be
found Mr. Hawley said that the prosecution had been
unable their attendance without applying to
the Supreme Court for an attachment THIS the
Board had not deemedIt expedent pursue. The
for the prosecution therefore declared closed.
Col. Fellows then moved to dismiss the case. on the
ground that the only testimony adduced by the
ton has been that of Augustus Miller, who had been
shown by the testimony OF Commissioner Dsbecker to
be utterly unworthy OF belief MI Hawey said IN reply
the testimony of Commissioner DSbecker had not
materially dic red from that given in Mlers affidavit
did consider that tie character OF Miller for truth
veracy had been mpeached and he urged that the
mo: ion be denied Col Fellows then said ia at he urged
the dismissal OF the charges the ground also that the
alleged ofense committed at a date before
the present Board of Police Commissioners came
into office Tho laws that passed
by the Legislature completely did away with the old
force of police 1870. and again in 1873. Though by
that act the members OF reenroled they
began, when that statute went into effect, new
force The statute clearly said that the Board
should possess and exercise all the powers and authority
OF the old Board but nowhere could there be found, IN
any clause or section. any expression that could pos
siby sanction the Judgment by the present Board upon
an onense committed under the old Board The old de-
parment utterly wiped out ana the present Board
had, therefore, no jurisdiction In this case
Mr Hawley claimed that the power OF the old Board
was perpetuated in the present Board.
After consultation by the Commissioners President
Matsel announced that the motion OF Col. Fellows was
denied. Then after asking whether the defense had
any witnesses to call the President declared the
case closed Col. Fellows announced that he excepted
ruling OF the Court upon his motion 10 dismiss
