THE COURT RECORD.
superior COurt-Crlminal Side-Judge
T0Hramca.


Superior Court-Criminal side-Judge
Torrance.
John J. Clerkin, ex-clerk in the town
agents Office, came out somewhat ahead in
the Superior court yesterday. Judge Tor
rance rendered his decision on the demurrer,
which was argued a week ago. He sustained
the demurrer and decided that the prosecu-
ton against him was based on the wrong
statute, and that the CAGE against Clerkin
had no standing in court. Clerkin was ar
rested under section 1858 of the general
statutes of the State. The act was passed in
1874 and reads: "Any magistrate or officer
or agent of any public community who shall,
with intent to prejudice it, appropriate its
property to the use of any person, or make
upon its books any false entry, or draw any
order upon its treasury; or present or aid in
procuring to be allowed any fraudulent
claim against said community, shall be fined
not less than $50 nor more than $500, or i'm
prisoned not less than go days nor more than
one year, or both" Lawyers w. B. Stoddard
and w. o. Case In behalf of Mr.. Clerkin de-
INJURED to this complaint and held that their
client could not be prosecuted under it, on
the ground that he was not the agent of the
town In the sense intended by the statute.
His honor said that the question hinged
on the word "agent;" whether the word in
the statute was to be taken In its popular
sense, or whether 1t meant person who did
some particular work for another man, or
body Of men, as town agent, prosecuting
agent, etc. He concluded that the legisla-
ture did not intend to cover such cases as the
one In question. The statutes covered a
special employe engaged to do CERTAIN thing
or things, and did not cover subordinate en-
ployes. The statutes did not take cogni-
zance Of the Office of a clerkship, as held by
the accused.
Attorney John w. Alling notified his
honor that he would appeal to the Supreme
court. II Mr.. Alling can appeal and does
appeal, and the Supreme Court Of Errors
agrees with Judge Torrance, the case of the
State va. Clerkin will be stricken from the
docket. If the Supreme court disagrees
with Judge Torrance, the case stands as it
did originally and will come to trial.
Charged with MansIaughter.
Thomas Shields was put on trial before
Judge Torrance and jury yesterday on the
charge OF manslsughter. The accused was
the foreman Of gang of laborers who were
laying the tracks near North Haven at the
time Of the accident on the Consolidated
road when three persons were killed. Attor-
w. @. Case and Attorney Rorabuck, of Hart
ford, defended the accused, while State At
torney Doolittle was assisted by ex-Judge
in the prosecution. Shields
pleaded not guilty to the charge of man
slaughter, he being arrested at the dime of
the accident, II being alleged that he was re-
sponsible for the defective condition of the
track which caused the dersilment of the
train and the loss Of life. The case is still
on.

House.

With the examination OF ]. A. Thomas,
w. N. Wilkerson and p. p. VanVleet, for
the defendants, and James A. Matthews
and james S. Robinson, for the plaintiffs,
testimony in the big suit OF the Mansfield
Drug Company against one dozen insu-
rance companies closed at o'clock yes

Judge Hammond then announced that
arrangements for the arguments OF coun-
sci were in order. These could, he said,

sired, and he had no desire to or intention
OF limiting them. For their guidance,
however, His Honor informed them that
he had a promise out to Judge Jackson to
relieve him at Toledo next Monday, could
not get his consent to disappoint him, and
must leave for that point Saturday night.
In order TO speed conclusion, and have
it settled in time for his departure, he had
thought OF holding night sessions,
which would be done II the jury
and counsel were willing. Assent was
heard from both quarters, and recess
was taken TO 7:30 o'clock pm. At that
hour Col. Josiah Patterson began his argu-
ment for the plaintiffs, and laid them
upon the minds OF the jury in sledge ham
mer style. He will be followed this morn
ing by lawyers for the defendants in turn
as agreed upon between them until 1880
O'Clock pm, when court will adjourn to
730 o'clock at night
An APPEAL reporter heard great deal
OF the testimony in this case. Its whole
trend was TO establish claims OF the insur-
ance companies set forth in these
columns before, viz: That the Mans
field Drug Company had failed %
correcdy estimate the value OF IFS
stock in the last inventory taken and
proof OF loss submitted after the fire, by
failing to allow reasonable reductions for
an accumulation OF old and unstable
goods incident to long established
business; that cartoons" or paste
board cases for certain proprietary
medicines, and labels, were not, properly
speaking, contemplated in the insurance
policies rs merchandise, any more than
the ordinary wrapping paper used. In
other words, that they, the insurance COM
panies, through professional adjusters, had
| the right aud authority TO construc the
policies issued, aud under which they were
liable to the drug company for stated
amounts.
Caution extraordinary was volunteered
by one Of the opposition counsel to Col.
Patterson after that gentleman had con-
Quoted hot cross-examination oil an in

"Josiah, why are you 50 ugly tempered

The caution did not deter the Colonel
from making the witness squirm.
