West Matunoy Township School Di rectors Pile Their Reasons. TIME FIXED FOR AN ARGUMENT. It la RepSrled lhat More Prosecutions Are to Follow And a Presentment Will be Mado at the Next Sitting 'of the Grand Jury. Tho reasons for the motion for an arrest of Judgment lb the case of the West Mahauoy township school directors, found guilty of misdemeanor, weie fllod by Messrs. Marraud Wadlinger, counsel for the defendants, yes terday. There are eleven of these reasons, threo of which relate to the foreman of the grand jury. It Is claimed that Ben Kauf man was net sworn as foreman and that he signed ouly his name, uot tho words "Fore man of the Grand Jury." Most of tho other reasons rolate to the 30th count on which tho' directors were convicted. It is claimed that this count Is vague, uncertain aud indefinite and does not set up the names of tho direc tors. It Is also claimed that tho board con sisted of slx'members. tho sixth man being Thomas Dixon, appoiutod to fill tho unex pired terra of Martin E Dixon, who died. and therefore tho evidence does not show 'hat P. J. Fergusou, Patrick M. Noono, Thomas E. Flanagan, Martin E. McLaln and John Donlin ','wero the duly constituted aud elected board of school directors of the town ship." The 7th reason claims "That there is no evidence in tho caso showing that order No. 109, d ato l December fith. 1890. navable to directors for $30, attending institute, being tlio order embraced in the 20th count of said Indictment was Issued by authority of any of tho above named defendants, acting as school directors of the school district of West Malianoy township, or that said order was received on the part of any of said do fendcuts with a fraudulent knowledge and Intent to dofraud said school district. Following are tho other reasons: 8th. That tbero Is no ovldence iu tho case showing or tending to show that payment of the order set forth in tho 20th count of said indictment was ever demanded of the treas urer of said school district by any person; that as a matter of fact, shown by tho evidence, said ordor was never paid to any person by tho treasurer of said school dis trict ; tho $5 alleged to have been paid to ench of the above named defendants by one, Martin E. McClain, was paid a long time beforo over said order was issued, to wit, on the day known as Directors' Day at tho meoting of tho county instltuto held at I'ottsville in November, 1890. 9th. That tho fact that an order such as Is set forth in tho 29th count of said In dictment was issued on the 5th day of De cember, 1890, without authority or ordbr of tho board of directors of tho school dis trict of West Mahauoy township, and that Martin E. McLain, treasurer of tho school district, was afterward allowed credit therefor in the annual settlement of his accounts as treasurer of said school dis trict by tho auditors of the district, does not visit or impose any criminal responsi bility or liability on said defendants, and tho said Martin E. McLaiu, treasurer of the said school district, being also a mem ber of Bald board of directors, must liavo known tho circumstances uudor which tho said order was issued, and if knowing tuo clrcumstancos of the issuing of said order to be illegal, he would not bo entitled to credit In tho settlement for the payment of said order, and would bo liable under his bond to said district for tho amount of said order, and tho school district could not, therefore, bo defrauded out of said 530 or any portion thereof. 10th. Tho verdict is contrary to tho evi dence. 11th. Tho verdict is contrary to tho law. A reporter for tho Hebald was informed to-day by a person who appears to he well in formed that tho misdemeanor suit just tried does not end the prosecutions against the dchool Directors of West Mahanoy Town ship, but to tho contrary is only an iuitiatlvo aud that prosecutions nro to bo entered ou similar allegations hearing upon the admin istration during tho years 1893, 1894 and 1895. Tho allegations in tho suit just tried referred only to tho year 1890, The infor mant says presentments will bo made to the next Grand Jury. THE CONTROLLER'S CASE. Iteasons Filed With the Clerk of the Courts to Quash Indictment. The affidavit and petition for a bill of nar- tlculars and tho motion and reasons to quaBh the indlctmont, charging County Controller Benjamin E. Severn, with misdemeanor, were filed yesterday In the office of tho clerk of tho courts by W. J. Whltebouse, the con trollers counsel. Mr. Whltebouse has as sociated with him Messrs. Wm. A. Marr aud George W. Dyson In this case. Tho reasons areas follows: First. The foreman of the Grand .Tnrv who returned the said bdl "a true bill" was uot only not sworn according to law, but was also not sworn at all as foreman of tho Graudjury that found tho "true bill." oeoonu. juanyot tue counts contained in the said indictment are couched iu language which does not set out and indictable nf. fence. Third. The Indictment is bad for mnltl. plicity; containing as it does uot only a muiHvuue oi oneuces, commuted at different times, under different circumstances, and witli different persons, but repeating the sameotftmoes in an -unnecessary number of ways, thereby tending to confuse the jury, aud work an injustice to the defendant. Fourth. The Indictment contains counts pretending to bet fortli an aliened nflhuiw. and thi is followed, not iu Its logical order, uui uy BiJiBwmy scHiierea counts, turuugu out the iudiatmeut contained ooimtltnnnt parts of the same alleged offence; if uot with an apparent intent, at least leaving the painful impression that it was doue to con fuse the' Jury, aud lead them to believe they are bviHtraiu uuu uieimut crimes. Fifth. In connection with tlm fourth reason, defendant alleges that the District Attorney did not draw up the indictment, that It was drawn up by private counsel, who represented parties who have private interest in the prosecution, aud the indictment as a whole is not that "concise, ordinary aud intelligent statement of the oharges" to which defendant is entitled. Sixth. Several counts in said iudictment contain two or more several and distinct ouunces. Seventh. Several counts In said Indict ment do not contain the words "vl at arml." nor words equivalent thereto, aud therefore set forth a new trespass, and should be quashed. Eighth. The defendant's counsel claim that they have this day and heretofore called at the office of the Clerk of the Courts and that of the District Attorney to obtain the original Imllctrrfont lit this OMe, and were unable to obtain the mm, and for this rea son, and the farther reason that they have been busily engaged In court, reserve the right to file more specific reasons hereafter. The motion to quash the Indictment will he argued before Judge Bechtel on December lSJ At Kepelilndld'fi A remit, Cafo Puree of pea, free, during and between the nets to-night.

The plant of the Shenandoah Fertiliser Company, which is composed of William Neisweuter and John SchaefTer. Is now In successful operation and yesterday turned out its first lot of fertiliser. It is one of the most complete plants In the state and promises to make a profitable investment for the owners, who have put about $8,000 in machinery, buildings and wagons. The plant Is located in the southern part ot town and almost opposite the Cambridge colliery. When its erection was first proposed there was considerable opposition to it on the grouud that the offensive odors would become a public nuisance, but this objection has been removod by practical demonstration and an official visit by the Board of Health. The improved machinery used does away with odors so oflectually that they can ouly he de tected within a small radius of the scene of operations inside the building, and even thoro they aro reduoed to a minimum. There Is absolutely no odor about tho Immense tank In which tho carcasses nre reduced. This is duo to tho operation of a condenser. A two- inch pipe runs from the tdfftjf the sealed tank to thereof of the building and there the con denser brings cold water into play upon the steam ascondlug from the tank and destroys ine smell, i no same contrivance is used in connection with the machinery iu which the fortlizeris dried. Tho tank in which the carcasses are roducedjs an immense affair 12 feet higtxaud 5 feet i'n diameter. It Is laree enough to hold twelve head of horses, mules, or cattle. Tho carcasses are first cut up and thendumpod into the tauk. When reduced the remains are transferred to a press, and thon to the dryer. Tho process is simple and thero is no waste of material. Fertilizer, tallow and hide are tho products of the plant. The company has erected a cement warehouse lu which the hides aro stored and salted down. A car load of tallow will bo shipped in a few days. The company now has a force of seven men at work, including a butcher and engineer. Next week another butcher aud two helpers will be added to the forco. Yestorday a miue mulo that sustained a leg fracture and six broken down horses wore slaughtered at the plant. Twenty-seven mulos have thus far been transformed into farm Btlmulant and tho company has two wagons constantly ou the road gathering in material. The carcasses of fifteen animals wore gathered -i town vosterday and run through the plant. The ouiiuingin wnicu tho operations are con ducted is 80 feet long and 3.0 feet wide. In the spring another building of similar pro portions will be erected. Messrs. "Noiswender and Shaefforare very enthusiastic over their venture aud are nppareutly justified. One thing is certain, tho fertilizer plant will succeed in doing what so many High Cou stables of the towu have failed to accomplish. llreen's lttalto Cafe. G. A. II. bean soup, free, to-night.

After the Verdlot Was Heudered and He Was Removed to His Cell the Fiend Declared That Mrs. Nack's Con fession Was True. New York, Dec. li Martin Thorn was yesterday convicted of murder in the flret degree In killing William Gulden ouppe, his predecessor in the affections of Mrs. Augusta Nack, at AVoodside, I I., on June 26. At the request ot Thorn's counsel the passage ot the death sen tence was deferred until next Friday morning;. Thorn heard the Jurymen polled on their verdict, and listened to each of them sealing his fate with a nervously uttered "yes."' Thorn gazed at each one of them and appeared to be less Impressed with the solemnity of the occasion than any one in the Jury box. His face never changed color dur ing the trying ordeal, but with Hps flrmly compressed and Jaws hard set he faced the Judge, Jury and court room full of spectators with well feigned stoicism. . About three weeks ago Thorn's first trial on the charge of murder was be gun lrt the Queens county court at Long Island City, but owing to the ill ness of a Juror it had to be abandoned after three days. A Becond trial open ed a week ago last Monday, and count ing out three days on which the court did not sit the trial consumed only six days. Mrs. Nack's testimony during the mistrial made it compulsory for Thorn's lawyers to change their line of defense In the second trial, and they Immedi ately adopted the only plausible defense that could be conceived under such try ing circumstances. They made a di rect charge "against Mrs. Nack, and in-. slsted that her alleged confession was a He, and that she herself was the Insti gator and perpetrator of the murder, Thorn being ignorant of the killing un til after Guldensuppe had been shot by Mrs. Nack. The woman was not produced during the second trial, but Thorn went on the stand and' substan tiated all the assertions made by his lawyers as to the midwife's guilt. His story, if anything, was more dramat ically told than that of Mrs. Nack, but, as the verdict shows, it did not have the desired .effect upon the Jurymen. WherT 'court opened yesterday Law yer Howe began a summing up in be half of Thorn. He made an earnest, thoughtful and impressive appeal to the Jury for his client, and It was thought by many who had the privi lege of hearing him that his efforts would leave a very great impression on the Jurors. Mr. Youngs followed, and held the attention of the Jurors throughout his speech, which lasted almost an hour. Judge Maddox's charge was carefully prepared and well deliv ered. It was acknowledged by the law yers for the prisoner to be extremely lucid, fair and impartial. The Jury remained in deliberation Just three hours', when they sent word to the Judge that they were ready to render a verdict, The fact of their re maining out so long gave hope to the defense, but as each one ot them took his seat in the Jury box his facial ex pression told very distinctly the result of the three hours' conference. """Guilty or the charge preferred" were the om inous words which fell from the Hps of the foreman ot the Jury, and although this verdict was not an unexpected one, It hit the defendant's counsel very hard, as they had built up the hope for a disagreement or a verdict In the minor degree. Thorn's lawyers moved for a new trial on the ground that the verdict was not In accordance with the weight of evidence, but the motion was overruled. Just what will become of Mrs. Nack has not been, madeJjnown by the wueens county nuinormeB, nut it is generally thought that the people will accept a plea from her which will not call for capital punishment. When Thorn had been led back to his cell after the conviction he admittted that the verdict was Just, and that he, and not Mrs. Nack, killed Guldensuppe. This acknowledgment of guilt took place while Thorn's cell In the Jail was being prepared for him. During the trial Thorn has been under charge of Police Captain Methven, of Flushing. Captain Methven had him under his watchful eye when the Jail officials searched the cell Thorn is to occupy for a day or two. While this was being done Thorn talked with the police cap tain. He said: "I am glad it Is over and the verdict given. I am convicted, and I am con tented. It was I who killed Gulden suppe, and I cut up his body. Bvery word that Mrs. Nack said upon the stand was substantially correct. When I was on the stand I lied when telling the story 1 did, but I lied to clear my self. It Is no use carrying It any fur ther. I am guilty and am convicted. It is what I expected, and what I sup pose people think I deserve, and per haps I do."
