SWAIN GAINS A DELAY.
AN ADJOURNMENT FOR A WEEK
GRANTED By THE COURT.

Gen. GrOsvenOr Called to Ohio to Wage
Legal Battles in that State-Ths De-
fendant's Case to be Bolstered Up in
the Meantime-Further Interruptions
to be Avoided.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 24.-Upon the
opening of the Swain court martial this
morning, Gen. Grosvenor. of the counsel
for the defense, asked the court to take q
recess from Wednesday of this week till
Saturday.
- said that he was obliged to go to Ohio to
attend the trial of some important suits before
civil courts at his home, and that if this court
did not grant the indulgence asked for, he
would be compelled TO absent himself tempo
rarlly from this case. He also said that in
view of the developments since the hearing OF
the case began, it would be necessary or the
defense to ask for a delay of some time in the
near future in order to perfect their
case, and perhaps it would be as
well TO ask for that DELAY now
before the court proceeded to the taking OF
testimony. He added that the defense were
making no factOus opposition to the progress
OF THIS case, although the public press had. he
said, intimated that they were, but that it
was necessary that this delay should be had
now.
The Judge Advocate announced his willing
ness to agree to rec IS il 1t were taken now.
before the taking of testimony began, and il
the counsel for the defense would give the
court an assurance that the case would be al
lowed to go on peremptorIly on Monday next.
THE STAND OF THE COURT.
He said that upon such an assurance he
would ask for recess until next Monday, but
he would object to going on now and inter-
rupting the examination of witnesses on We'd
nesday by a recess.
The counsel for the defense agreed to this
proposition, and assured the court that unless
something now unforeseen should occur they
would ask no further delay.
The court then took vote on the question
of acceding to the request of the counsel, and
agreed to take recess until Monday.
Gen. GrOsVenor then made a statement to
the court to the effect that his chest was now
under arrest and not allowed TO leave the
District of Columbia, and that the defense
deemed 1t absolutely essential to their case
that he should be allowed to go to New York
for a few days. He therefore asked the court
1t were within their power TO so modify the
order of arrest as to permit of Gen. Swaim's
going to New York.
The President of the court said that he
would submit the request to the Secretary Of
War, with his approval. The court then took
a recess until MONDAY next.

A TRIANGULAR FIGHT.

Before the grand jury recOnvened
an attorney appeared before Judge
BlOdgett, saying that he represent
ed a candidate for the House of
Representatives of the State Legislature,
whose district included the disputed pre-
cinct; that according to the returns made
his client was defeated, but that he had
hopes that recount of the ballots in the
regular election contest would show that
his client was elected, and finally that if
the Federal grand jury were allowed to
handle the ballots it would prejudice his
clients contest. On this statement the
Judge decided to hear further argument
tomorrow and ordered that in the mean
time the grand jury should not have ac-
cess to the ballots. County Clerk Ryan
therefore appeared before that body at 3
O'Clock with only the poll book and tally
sheet, which were inspected by an expert
from the sub treasury. The result of the
inspection was not made public.

ILLINOIS SQUABBLE.
County Clerk Ryan Ordered to Produce
the Tally Book in Court.


CHICAGO, Nov. PA motion for an
attachment to compel County Clerk Ryan
to produce the tally-sheets, poll book and
ballots of the Second precinct in the
Eighteenth ward of this city was argued in
the Federal Court here this morning. The
allegation is made that the returns from
that precinct have been tampered with in
connection with the Leman, Rep, and
Brand, DEM, Senatorial contest, the
final determination of which will settle
the question of Republican or Demo-
cratic majority on joint ballot in the
State Legislature. The attorneys for
Ryan denied the jurisdiction of the Fed
eral Court, but Judge BIOdgett declared
that the court clearly had jurisdiction,
and directed the County Clerk to produce
the ballots, poll book and tally sheets be-
fore the grand jury within one hour.
The grand jury had, in the meantime, ad-
iOurned to O'Clock in the afternoon

On Saturday afternoon last a promi-

abort drive into the country. The
weather was delightful, aud every thing
pointed toward pleasant drive. The
route taken was out the Newport pike.
and having fine animal, the houses OF
the city rapidly disappeared from view,
and soon the party emerged out into the
country. They continued on without
any trouble until the toll gateiw reach

gate keeper, in his usual demand for the
few pennies that 90 toward paying for
keeping the road in good repair.

pulling up his horse ut the toll-gate he

unfortunately the wife had left her
pocket at home, as ladies gener.
ally do when they 60 out in company
with gentlemen. Without further de.
lay the gentleman drew forth q roll OF
bank notes and rendered a 50 bill to the
gate.keeper, requesting him to take out
the four cents tor toll.
The gate-keeper grasped the bill,
eyed 1t eagerly for some time, (for he
had not seen one for ~ long time) and
then returned it 10 the owner with the
remark that he could not change 1t.
The couple then drove OFT without be.
ing able TO pay their toll or account
for the missing money-bag. After
driving a short distance the horses
Lead was turned and the couple pro-
cseded towards home. Thinking that
perhaps the money, bag had accidentally
dropped from his pocket into the road
the lady was deputized to keep sharp
lookout for the same. At one point in
the road a dark object was seen, and it
WAS NJ once supposed that the money!
bag had been found. An investigation
followed, but instead of it beingIa money.

The search was renewed and kept up
until they arrived home, but without
success and the bag was given up as

About an hour or SO after they ar
rived home, the gentleman had occa-
sion TO place his hand in one of his hip
pockets, when he felt something soft,
and in pulling 1t forth, it proved t. be
the missing money-bag with it's con-
tents, (ahout o. cents) all safe and

p-cially when they thought OF the poor
