District Attorney McGiu in the Hudson County
IN. j. General Sessions yesterday moved the trial Of
the indictment against the officers and executive
committee of the Mechanics and Laborers' Savings
Bank of Jersey City. which was closed by the
Chancellor in December last The persons charged

secretary, and Assemblyman Patrick Sheeran,
Finance Commissioner Jeremiah Sweeny, Adam j.

with conspirng to cheat and deraud the depositors
and public by continuing business and rece wing de-
posts long after they knew OF the banks insolvency.

the prosecution by ex-Judge Hoffman. When the
case was moved senator Abbott stated that the
counsel for the defence desired to oher some OBJ

defective and would not hold. 1t is alengthy instru-
conspiracy to dcfraud In concealing the insolvency
OF the bank; the second charging conspiracy to
cheat and defraud by fase representation ana
the third charging q conspiracy to defraud by
falsely representing specifically to James +. Cannon:
Dennis Kelly. James Chester and others. Counsel
commended that two of the counts were framed
under the statute law of conspiracy, for
which the punishment must be hard labor.
and the remaining count under the common
law the punishment of which may or may
not be hard labor. He held, then. that really two
offences were charged In the indictment when only
one could stand. Senator Albeit further argued
that the first count charged the defendants with
criminal offence In only conceaiing tho
insolvency OF their institution, which was
what any merchant corporation would do IL they
thought possible by prudence and care to recover
from their embarrassment. The argument was
answered at length by ex-Judge Hoffman.

against whom nine indictments are pending. was
called by the District Attorney, Immediately after
which the defence moved to quash the venire under
which the Grand Jurors summoned, be-
cause of its nonconformity with the law.
and the array of Grand Jurors, because
the sheriff and Jury Commissioners were not sworn
to perform their duty with fidelity before drawing
them, as the act OF Assembly required.
Senator Carpenter maintained that the action
OF the Grand Jury was not renewable,
even il the venire were defective, and
that the proposition to quash the array OF jurors
when had ended it's existence was absurd. Senator
Carpenters brief argument was listened to with
marked attention. Mr.. j. w. Slnonton, or Harris
burg. also for the prosecution, quoted NUM-
Der of decisions show that it was too late to nufy
the action of the Grand Jury. The defence was
represented by Messrs. Lamberton Il Herr, of Har-
rispurg; Mr. William IL. Armstrong. of Williams
CHUNK. Judge Black present, but aside from
suggesting few points to Senator Carpenter and
watching the with much interest, did nothing.
The remarks of Judge Pearson, who is trying the
