ot footing the bills.
In county "Ring" circles there is a general

motion to quash In their cases was partly ar
gued before Judge Farwell In the CTfmtna!
by thcir, attorney were purely technical, rs fol-
lows: Mr.. Reed held that the indictments
were repugnont on account OF the first count
laying the olfeusc rs having been committed
June l, 1877, while the second count liked the
date as June l, 1876. His second point vas
which the conspiracy had been entered into, and
that on this the indictment was not sufficiently
express aud positive. His third point Was that
the indictments had been found on the evidence
OF the indicted alone, and, consequently, were
illegal.
Sidney Smith argued in favor of the motion,
and contcuded that the indictments should be
quashed; first, because the names OF the CON-
Inlssioners who were under investigator io1
bribery at the time were not stated. LIS sec'
ond point was that the nature Of the evidence
alleged to have been destroyed had not been.

OF the er,asu1es referred to. His third point was
that the second count was too general, and tailed

point was that the means BY which the consplc-

given with the degree Of certainty requisite In
criminal law and practice.

tfons tomorrow evening, after which Mcssrs.

Seaton in the Chair, met again at the City
Clerks office last night to hear further evidence
the request of John Riordan as to fraud in the
late Aldermanic election. in which R:ordan
claims to have been elected to represent the
Seventh Ward in the Council. Hildreth and
some OF his hackers we're present, as were also
Riorlau, some OF his witnesses, and his attor-
gave very few new facts, vas introduced by
Riordan's side. The testimony went to show
that gangs oi repeatcrs headed by ''Soapy" Levy,
"Big Ned' Burns, "Cabbage Ryan, and other
well-known and disrcputable charactersh had made
circuits of the precincts of the ward and driven
voters and ba1lot-box guards away, and then
east votes. all of which Was duly recorded In
the columns Of THE TRIBUNE at the time Of the
occurrences. Further testimony showed that
there was trouble ut the Second Precinct when
some mcn claimed right to vote and we're de-
MED it. Nothing was shown to fix any fraud
upon anybody in particular or throw any new
light on the case. The Committee will hold
another meeting Thursday night, at O'Clock,

graphed BY the news agencies on Saturday, tho

Privy Council Office BY the Town Clerk this
afternoon, stating that Information had reached
that department OF the reported prevalence
Of Colorado beetles In Hereford, and
requesting that an immediate investigation
should be instituted Accordingly tine Mayor
and Town Clerk, Superintendent Of Police, and
other public officials, commenced a strict
investigation all the afternoon. It was soon
found that the insects had appeared in several

that they existed IN the vicinity OF the two rail-
way stations, principally near the goods ira tic
