SEEKING A NEW TRIAL.

The case of Benjamin Mayer. convicted in May
last in tho Court Of Oyer and Terminer before
Judge Barrett. of obtaining goods by false pre-
tences. the facts being fully published the time
has just been argued on appeal in the Supreme
Court General Term. Mr.. John o. Mott, who APP
peared on behalf of Mayer, claimed that
the Court erred in the admission of
the evidence OF Ezra G. Dillingham; as to
Mayors statement to him to his financial stand
ing; that there also i'll admitting tho test-
mony OF Car Wight as to Mayors statement to him
to his financial condition the 22i of March,
1876. whereas the goods in question sold at an
earlier date. He alluded to various other alleged
at the trial and claimed that such errors
the judgment OF the Court of Oyer and Terminer
should be reversed and Mayer granted now trial.
District Attorney Phelps strenuously combated the
various points raised by Mr.. Mott. He insisted that
all the testimony was properly admitted; that thcro
were errors demanding a reversal OF the judg-
ment below and that the judgment should, there
fore, stand. Tue Court took the papers.

THE COURTS.
ONE OF THE LUDLOW STREET FIRE BUGS.

ONE OF THE LUDLOW STREET FIRE BUGS.
The public have not yet forgotten the peculiar
circumstances attending the conviction of Abraham
D. Freeman, Charles Bernstein, Abraham Perlstein
and Joseph Levy of setting fire on November TO-
1S7S to the ve-story tenement house No. IL Ludlow
street aud the sentence of each to State Prison
life. While Levy's companions in crime were
speedily sent to State Prison stay of proceedings
was obtained for him by his counsel. Mr.. John o.
Mott. pending an appeal to the Supreme Court
General Term. where the case. on such appeal. has
just been argued at great length.
Mr.. Mott. who made the opening argument, in
sisted that it is not necessary upon the trial of an
accessory having been convicted of being an ac-
cessory before the fact the part Of the prosecu
ton to enter into detail of the evidence which
the conviction Of the principal was founded. and
that the record of the conviction is sufficient against
the accessory to put him upon his defence; that
when the accessory is brought to his trial after the
conviction of the principal, and it comes out in
evidence upon the trial of the accessory that the
affence of which tho principal convicted did
not amornt to felony in him. or not to
he spects of felony with which he
harged that the accessory may avail himself of
ih:s. and ought to be acquitted; that the
u. Freemas did commit, if any. in the
second degree; that the Court erred in refusing to
the indictment and that the Court also erred in
fusing to charge the jury that there was no evidence
in the case; that the keys used by Freeman were
those belonging to the plaintiff in error. He further
urged that by the Laws OF 1885, chapter $50 q r. s..
9th ed 24l sec 6gD. this Court may order now trial
it it shall be satisfied that the verdict against the
prisoner was against the weight of evidence or
against law. that justice requires trial,
whether any exception shall have been taken not
in the Court below. In conclusion. after recting nu-
merous authorities in support of his argument, Mr..
Mott con,ended that the Judgment of the Court of
General Sessions ought to be reversed and the pris
oner discharged.
Assistant district Attorney Rollins. in replying.
claimed that there justifable legal ground
for reversal OF the judgment of the Court below.
He said that there abundant evidence that Free
man. Perlsten and Bernstein incendiaries,
who visited Levy's rooms with the express purpose
of destroying them by fire and after previous
with him. and that, though the direct
proof of his own acts was confined to what he did
after the Are it entirely within the province
OF the jury to infer therefrom what must, beyond
reasonable doubt. have preceded.
At the conclusion of the argument the Court took
the papers for examination.
