TILE CITY COUNCILS IMIIROGLIO-.-Witurs OF Quo
WARRANT° AGAINST MESARS. nituseat, LISSOff,
AND TIMMER, OF COMMON COUNCIL, AND A WRIT
OF MANDAMUS AGAINST TILE UNioN
OF SELECT COUNCIL, APPLIED FOR.
The dlfliculties In the Select and Common Coun
cils of the city have been before the courts for some
time, and the public are by this time pretty fully
acquainted with them. On Saturday, however,
they assumed a new shape. E. Spencer Miller,
Eeq., presented to the Supreme Court three eug
gestions for writs of quo warranto, in the cases of
William Meeser, Isaac Leech, and Thomas J.
Barger, members of Common Commit from the Filch,
Twenty-fourth, and Second wards of the city, and
asked that rules to show cause, returnable on the
next motion day, Wednesday, be granted.
Remy M. Phillips Esq., who appears for Mr.
Barger, said that, without intending to raise any
point then, he would state that Mr. Barger would
avail himself of the fact that, as a member of the
Legislature, he was privileged from any such pro
cess.
The suggestion in the case of Mr. Keener, is by
Henry E. Wallace and Edmund S. Yard, and sets
out his acting as member of Common Council from
the Fifth ward, since the sth day of January last;
that the act of Aesembly of March 21, 1861, enacts
that each ward of the city shall have a member of
'Common Council for exch 9 coo of taxable inhant
-151101 ' - I IL I
tar mu 1111Firaning to
im us tiller; too 1 1 11111 ulna 11041 len than 4,500 Mee
bre inhabitatitti, anti was, therefore, only entitled to
one n ember of Common Council, and as one, m a '
hi. Baird, who was elected member of said council
for said ward, on the second Tuesday or October,
1861, held for two years, and was, of course, still Mt
ting as member of the ward, was not entitled to
elect any other member at the election in October,
1563, and the Sheriff's proclamation published prior
to said election indicated that no election fora mem
ber of Common Council was to take place in the
said ward, and accordingly both parties withdrew
their candidates, or none were put forward or voted
for in the usual manner by either party.
On counting the votes, however, after the polls
had closed, it was found that five votes had been
cast by some persons for said Wm. Messer; said
votes were returned as cast or voted, and a certla
cafe was -fraudulently given by a majority of the
judges of the said Mud certifying that said Keene
was duly elected a member of Common Council from
said ward, having received all the votes cast for that
office, which certificate lie fraudulently received and •
used at the organization of Councils, and the same
was, by the officers organizing said Cou's, fraud
ulently received, and he permitted to take his seat
by virtue of it, and has, from the time aforesaid,
held and used the said office, &0., wherefore the re
lators pray process against him, to show by what
warrant he claims to have, use, and occupy the
franchises, lights, and privileges aforesaid.
In the suggestion in the case of Isaac Leech, John
R. McCurdy is the relator, and it sets forth his
acting as member of Common Council from the
Twenty-fourth ward, since the 6th January last;
that at the election in the Twenty-fourth ward in
October last for. member of Common Council, the
relator received IAI votes, and the said Isaac Leech
1,650, the said John R. ltlc(Jurdy having a majority
of 32 votes. And the judges of said election ovule
such return and signed a certificate in favor of said
John 11. McCurdy, certifying in due form that he
was duly elected a member of the Common Council
for said ward, by means of which the said John R.
McCurdy became and was entitled to take his seat
in said Common Council at the organization thereof
on the 6th of January last.
Yet, notwithstanding said election said return,
and said certificate the said Leech unlawfully com
bining and conspiring with five of the nine judges,
obtained and received from them a false and pre
tended frandUlent certificate that the said Leech - hail
been duly elected a member of Common Council from
the Twenty-fourth ward; and, after falsely, fraudu
lently, and frequently avowing and declaring that he
would not use said certificate, and thus throwing said
John B. McCurdy off hie guard, and inducing him not
to commence any proceeding for the purpose of can
celling or preventing the use of said certificate, he,
the said Leech, fraudulently combining with the
president, clerks and other organizing officers of
said Common Council, used said certificate, and
falsely and fraudulently demanded his seat in said
Council thereunder, anti was by said organizing offi
cers fraudulently allowed to take his seat at the
organization of said Council. Wherefore, the rela
tor prays dueproeess against the said Leesh, that he
answer to the Commonwealth by what warrant he
claims to have, use, and enjoy the franchises, &a.
The suggestion in the case of Thomas J. Barger,
is by Paul J. Field, and sets forth the exercise, by
the defendant, of the office, Ice., of a member of
Common Council fromthe Second ward, since the
sth of January last. That by the 4th section of the
act to incorporate the city of. Philadelphia, passed
Feb. r d, laN ' it is provided " that no member of the
State Legislature, or any one holding office or em
ployment from, or under the State, at the time of
said election, shall be a member of said Councils,"
and the relator avers that by this section it is en
acted and intended that no member of the State Le
gislature shall be a member of either the Select or
Common Council, while he continues such member
°lithe Legislature.

The rules to show cause were granted.
Immediately after the granting of these rules to
show cause, Ito., L. O. Cassidy, Esq., presented an
application for a writ of alternative mandamus
against the Union members of Select Council, to
show cause why a peremptory mandamus should
not Issue against them to compel them to go into
joint convention with Common Council for the pur
pose of electing heads of departments. The infor
mation recites the duty of Councils to meet and elect
such beads of departments before the Ist of March,
at which time the terms of the present incumbents
expire; and charges that the defendants have fraudu
lently refused on several occasions to go into such
election, and intend to continue so to refuse, where
by vacancies will occur, and the interests of citizens
suffer.
This is the substance of the information, which
we cannot give more fully because of counsel taking
it away immediately after it was read.
The court awarded the writ, and by consent of all
parties, Tuesday was fixed on

this artd the quo warrant() oases.

=ISI
The court was engaged with the Motion List on
Saturday morning, and a number of mums disposed
of. Among them are the following, with which our
readers are somewhat familiar :
Fideld vs. The Insurance Company of the State
of Pennsylvania. Rule for a new trialLpoint re
served. The case was an action on a policy of in
surance on the brig John Welsh, which was captured
by the pirate Jeff Davie, and the point reserved was
whether the loss was caused by the acts of pirates,
or whether it was occasioned by public enemies, a
peril not covered by the policy.
The Chief Justice on Saturday morning diseharged
the rule for a new trial, and entered judgment for
the defendants on the point reserved, saying that
the Jeff Davis was clearly a pirate, under the
criminal act of Congreer, but was not so under com
mercial law. They were public enemies, and the
loss by their acts was not a peril insured against.
The case will be taken to the Supreme Court in
Bane.

(Before Mr. Alderman Beitlez.l
Important Arrest of AllfgeSillastufact
rers of Cowsteefeli
On Saturday afternoon four persons, two males
and two females, were arraigned before Alderman
/lettler on the charge of making and laauing counter
feit notes, The arrest is one of the most important
that have taken place In Philadelphia for many
years. In its importance it is fully equal to the
arrest of George White, which took place in New
York a few months ago and it was accomplished D
through United States Deputy Marshal John Jen
kins, who was the prime mover In bringing that ao
complished counterfeiter to juetlec. All the appa
ratus necessary for engravingand printing the coun
terfeit notes was captured, and displayed at the
hearing. The case excited more than ordinary atten
tion. The parties gave the names of James Hughes,
Susan Hughes, Joseph Branch and Mary Branch.
The following evidence was elicited :
United States Deputy Marshal John Jenkins
Worm—Some five or six weeks ago, Mr. Sharkey
(Dep. U. S. Marshal) and myself, arrested Hughes
on South street near the river Schuylkill; he was in
a wagon; we drove to the station house in Union
street and left the prisoner with LieutenantGroldey;
I then got into the wagon and gave the horse a loose
rein; he took me to a house on Tulip street in the
Nineteenth ward; I searched the house and found
considerable bank-note paper in it. Shortly after
this I communicated the facts to Mr. Franklin, the
chief of the Detective force of the city, and arrange
ments were made for further developments. Serer,
grant Tryon of the Nineteenth ward was delegated
to watch the movements of the parties and the re
sult of our arrangements was developed last night.
Chief Franklin, bergeant Tryon, Mr. Sharkey, and
myself made a descent upon the house and arrested
Hughes and his wife and Mrs. Branch; we proceeded
up stairs and found the press; bundles of notes on
the floor, on the shelf; also this book containing the
signatures or Jac timilies of the signatures of differ
ent bank officers, and others; we found the engra
ving tools in the second-story back room; near the
press in the third story we found these bank notes
already cut for printing.
Some of the plates, it will be seen upon examina
tion, have been altered several times. Among the
more interesting are the plates of the Corn Ex
change Bank, Philadelphia; the Western Bank of
Philadelphia; and the Sussex Bank of New Jersey,'
the counterfeits of which were put into circulation
in Philadelphia a short time ago.
Question. Did the parties say anything when you
took them into custody, or when you searched the .
'unmet .
Answer. No, sir. They did not say anything even
When we found the things, one after the other. We
took the tlfree prisoners to the station house. In an
hour or so after this Branch came there and we ar
rested him also. He had on his person about two
hundred dollars in spurious notes. I had some little
talk with him. He said be was not an engraver, but
could only letter. He did not say who engraved. He
did not, nor did any one else, claim the engraving
tools.
Benjamin Franklin, Chief of the Detective Police,
sworn.—ln the latter part of December, when
Hughes was arrested, Mr. Jenkins called upon me,
and desired the cooperation of the city authorities;
I had en interview with the Mayor, and the result
was that Sergeant Tryon was delegated to work out
the case ; he arrested a man and two women in one
of therooms of the house; the parties seemed some
what excited or surprised when he entered; they
asked what process we bad to authorize their arrest
the parties were conducted to the Nineteenth-wan(
tatation.house.. The older here produced a couple of
packages of counterfeit notes, and said, "these were
found in the pockets of Branch, who came to the
'SitatiOrrhOuse ; there were between four and five hun
dred dollars in good money on him ; all the plates
recovered, except three, were found under the bed
in the room where this woman dressed herself.”
(The chief alluded to Mrs. Hughes.) .
E. K. Tryon sworn.—Am sergeant of the Nine
teenth ward; about four weeks since, I was deputed
by Chief Franklin to watch the movements ofthe par
ties. Day before yesterday this lady, Mrs. Hughes,
visited the house twice ; followed her, and she
went to Branch's house. I reported the occurrence
to Chief Franklin, and last night we made the de
scent. All that I can say in regard-to this, is cot
roborate the evidence of Mr. Jenkins and Mr
Franklin.
Robert Draper affirmed.—l am one of the firm of
the American Bank Note Engraving Company ; the
quality of this bank note paper is good. (Paper re•
covered by officers shown.) This witness examined
the engraved plates through a powerful magnifying
glass, and pronounced them all counterfeit, though
most of them had been engraved by a skilful en
graver.
•
Samuel P. Griffith, affirmed.—l. am a bookkeeper
at 'he Western bank ($3 plate shown) ; the bank
has not issued any three-dollar notes ; this plate was
not ordered by the bank.
Isaiah G. Horner, sworn.—l own the house the
parties live in ; Mrs. Branch rented the house from
me; she and Mr. Branch occupied the house toge
ther • when she rented the house she said her hue.
band a liquor agent ; that man (here witness
pointed to Mr. Hughes) was with her; that man
(Mr. Branch) paid the rent.
The evidence here closed, an d the parties wore
committed in default of $6,000 bail cash, to..answer
the charge of conspiracy to cheat; having false
plates in their possession ; having bank-note paper
in their keeping. Also with having more than ten
counterfeit bills in their possession.
The following is a ilst of the notes recovered :
$3, Bank of Lower Canada
$2, Union Bank, Baltimore, Md.
•
g $ 2 1 ; Shank °it th r f n % l3 Va S te k nal.
State v of Georgia.
The amount represented by the notes was calcu
lated. There was about R hat! bushel of them.
The following engraved plates were recovered:

There was one steel plate that was unfinished.
It was examined carefully through a magnifying
glass, and it Was supposed to be intended for trea
sury notes. Besides the above there were other
things taken by the police especially adapted to the
process of altering notes. These are called "bugs."
They contained the following names, &c.:• Nor
wich—New Haven—State of—lfartford—Bank of
.Lima—Rhode Island—Three—Chatenagee Bank—
Orange County Westfield Boston Lowell
Woonsocket—Massachusetts. Besides the above,
ail sorts of chemicals and different colored ink—
red, pink, green, black, blue—were recovered. We
might say, in conclusion, that the counterfeit notes
were very well engraved, and every way calculated
to deceive. The one-dollar plate Bank. of Washte
naw Is considered by competent judges u an excel
lent engraving.
[Before Mr. Alderman Settler.]
Serious Charge Against a Physician.
Dr. Samuel Bell, one of the physicians appointed
by the Guardians of the Poor, was arraigned before
the alderman on Saturday afternoon, on a charge
preferred against him by a widow lady named Mary
vans, residing in the vicinity of Twelfth and Lemon
streets. The husband of the lady died last August.
She bears a very respectable oharac ter. On the 11th
of the present month she made application to Mr.
Hough, the visitor of the poor, for medical assist
ance. Ho gave her a certificate on Dr. Bell. She
called upon the physician at his office, Tenth and
Mount Vernon streets, and the next day he visited
her at her residence. He prescribed LOT her, and
said he would call again.
Several days elapsed; he called, and on entering
the room where the sick woman was, he found a
person there named Mary Ann Williams, who oc
cupied another part of the house; she left the room,
and the doctor locked the door, and put the key
Into his pocket; the scene which occurred after this
in the room is of such a character as to be unfit for
publication.
The doctor at once admitted the statement of the
witness, excepting that she was entirely mistaken
in regard to hie having any designs upon her not
warranted by his profession. He admitted to De
tective Henderson that he locked the door, and put
the key into hie pocket, and gave as his reason that
he did so to prevent any person coming into the
room. It may be Pieper to state that the only other
person in the hone was Mrs. Williams, who vo
luntarily retired Dom the room when the doctor
came in. The complainant said that she had reported
the doctor to the Guardians of the Poor, and they
said it was her duty to have him prosecuted. This
was her only reason why she thus publicly made the
exposure. The defendant was required to enter ball
in the sum of $1,500 to answer at the present term
of the court.
