We perceive that Mr.. Park has promptly

TesIimOnN TO b. Decided.

The turning point IN De witt c. Taylor's
suit against Jay Gould and others was reached
yesterday upon the admissiollity OF evidence as
to Speyers's giving to Taylor a memorandum in
writing Of the contract for the rate OF the $780,
900 gold. w. W. Farrell, clerk for Taylor, tes'i-
fed that he requested Speyers to put up mar
ain on the gold that he bad purchased for James
Fisk, Jr and associates. De Witt C. Taylor, the
plaintiff, testified that be sold $9DO0O0 IN gold to
Speyers. aud req lested Speyets o put up twenty
per ccntum IA the Farmers Loan and Trust
Comphny. and he himself put IN 10000. BE
tween and o'clock he learned that the defend
ants would not and could not give tue margins.
The gold WAS then sold out under tie rules Of
the Gold Exchange at a loss Of $5i,OO0. Alter
ward, at about 3 O'Clock, he received memo
randum IN writing Of the contract from Mr..
Speyers.
Mr.. Beach objected TO this testimony on tho
ground that, under tho rules OF the Gold ES-
change, rs soon as there was a failure to put up
the margin the contract WAS repldlatcd, aud
then the agency Of Mir. Speyers terminated, and
no authority remained Ia aim TO make any con-
tract binding on THE principals
Judge Barrett will render his decision on Mon
