Gnurf Notes.

The plaintiff in the case of Cornelius Pier pont, trustee of the Centerville horse rail- road company, against John M. Keller has been given a verdict to recover $1S0. The action was brought because of injuries to car
 horsas resulting from defendants emptying oyster shells as a car was passing by, thereby frightening horses so that they ran away.
 Rx-SenaTor YaIe's Case.
 Ex-Governor Harrison, as committee of the Superior court, heard the continuation of the case of ex-Senator Yale vs. Simpson,
 Hall & Miller, a suit to recover $10,000 all legged as back salary for managing the firms
 New York house. MT. Yalo testified that
 for several years his salary had been S5, ,000,
 but MT. Simpson denied it. A certain in demrity paper was given to MT. Yale by
 MT. Simpson to protect him against any loss
 from endorsing the paper of Simpson, Hall,
 Miller & Co.,, which at one time did not have
 the surplus of $500, ,000 it now has. The
 date of this paper fixes time when MT.
 Yale's salary was changed and therefore ma
 terially affects the question at stake, as here is where the disagreement lies, MT. Yale claiming he was to have larger salary far ther back than MT. Simpson admits. Mir. Simpson introduces an indemnity paper which he testified was the original paper. MT. Yale said it wasn't and introduced MT. Red field of the New Haven County bank and MT. Higby of the New Haven National bank who testified that upon examination they found these words upon what purported to be the original: "Copy of indemnity paper I gave MT. Yale for notes, drafts, etc.-S. H. M. & Co. The original Mir. Yale gave up to me so that this-of-importance The plaintiff claims that this shows that MT. Simpson still has the original in his possession. Mir. c. B. Yale and Expert Hutchinson say they have found many inaccuracies of Expert Wilson's account of the books, which he made for the defense, and in which he claimed that the whole profits of the New York house under the management of the ex- senator had been reported at but $70, 1000, They were really $140,0o0. E. B. Yale testi- fed to several alleged inaccuracies. The case
 was adjourned until this morning. Attornry filling represents the plaintiff, and William O. Case, Secretary of State Hubbard and William Ely the defend ant.
 Terrills' Identity Not Proven. The evidence against James Terrills, the cabman accused of an attempted assault on Mrs William R. Babcock of Grown street, was not sufficient in the City court Saturday to convict him and he was discharged. Judge Pickett said he was confident that Mrs, Bsbcock was insulted as she alleges, and he would take great satisfaction in punishing the guilty party, but the evidence failed to prove the identity of James Terrills, and he would therefore discharge him.

He was bound over to April 23 for hearing on $500 bond furnished by L. O. Bates. MT. Chidsey was recently tried in the City court and settled the case.
