(Continued from l'ltsl Ige.) qnenfthocae when he asked tho court to dismiss. Ho can mako moro out of nothing than any other member of tho bar. Did nobody set II ro to this mill ? Mr. Marr pointed out the stoltcotn!ng of tho evi dence given by the defendants on tho stind and slid tho witness Wills knew more than he wanted to toll of tho meeting nt Daniel's corner. The truth was they never went to Dleary's, When they loft Wills they wont down to Parker's. Then we find lilcbardson and I h mill at Elchnian's about nine o'clock, bo fore tho fire. Let tue tell you there Is no man nt thu bar who knows better how to try a criminal caso than my eloquent friend Mr. Whltchotise, and If there bad been a father, a mother, a brother, or a sister who could locate these young men at other points at the time or theso fires they would have been here to testify. Mr. Marr claimed tho Supremo Court sus tains evidence such as given by Wooden as leea ly corroborative of Fleinuilng's stoiy. You find Dairub near Elchnian's stable when the stable fire was discovered and Klchaid sou on the other street, giving tho alarm. Is there any evidence hero to show who else set fire to this stable? Not a hit. Accordiug to their story you find them next on tho railiond. What wtre they talking about? Of the lire? No. It was not -firo" that bothered them. They wanted to gcta bottle filled.

Kituwles tells you he then took a walk uttt of his nay for his health aud meets D.trnih and lticliardson at Tyler's comer, squalen away from his homo, 20 minutes after they had parted for the night. Who believes that story? Flciumiiig came into town a com- paiativo stranger after tho Parker fire and met this gang at tho Eichmau lite when it was ill full blazo. Ho tells you they talked of what a grand fire the hosiery mill would maku, Wooden said, "Don't doit. Tlieie aie a lot of girls working theio." liichsidsoii s.iid, "Yes, your girl is working thereand you are a coward." At this Flemmiug said that Wooden was right and Wooden wanted Flemming to go home witlt him. Flemming said, "No, I stayed with you one night a week agoand I will go somewhere cNs to ulf,ht." Flemmiug lit tho castein end ot tho mill and Kichardsou lit It moro to the centre One of tho defendants tuld of trying to set fire to tho Kaier Houso and of the failure to do it. We have shown you they were all traveling together that night m a gang, aud fur what purpose? What reason have tkay given you other than we have given you ? Mr. Marr concluded his address at 11:05 o'clock, and soon after Judgo Koch loin uiencud charging thu jury. Tho court oc cupied about au hour and a half and tho case was given tu the Jury at about ouo o'clock. THE MEVKltS' CASl.

Tho counsel for the defense made a motion to withdraw a juror and continue tho case until Mr. Ulrich would bo able to appear, but tho certificate stated that owing to the illness Mr. Ulrich would ba eight weeks ill at the shortest. Judgo llechtel denied the motion. It was arranged that Messrs. Schalck and Whalen should mako tho address to tho jury in behalf uf tho prosecution and Messrs.

COUNCIL MEETING. I'lrit lltislneas Session of the New Organi zation Last Night. The now llorotteh Council held its first meeting slnco tho ro-otgaiilatlou last night and waded through considerable business lu a short tlmo, Tho members present wore Messrs. McGuIro, Coakley, Lally, Hoehm, Shoemaker, Strauelin, James, Englcrt, llren- nan, Hell, Hand, Murphy and Harklus. The first otdcr of business was an applica tion to have nn aro electric light placed at the corner of Catherine street and Mayberry alley. A petition liearlng 72 nimies was pre sented. Tho matter was referred to tho lamp and watch committee. High Constablo Dcvers said people wcro making complaints against refure that was belli i; hauled to tho public dump at tho west end of Lloyd street, and tho discission that followed led tu an animated, but brief scene, and resulted In some of tho borough olllcera lecelvlng instructions of a very posltlo character. After Mr. Devcrs concluded his statement Piesldent MiGulru said : "It seems that, not withstanding you realize your duties and are a paid olllrial of this borough, you come Into Council to make complaint about something you ought to attend to" At this point Constable Dovcrs ntti nipled to say something, Mr. Mcllulre told him to keep quiet, but as tho (.'oust ible persisted iu trying to talk President McGuire said with Mime emphasis : "If you don't give order the Clilel of l'oltco will remove you." "Is that so?" retorted Mr. Devers, as be slid buck int i his scat. Mr. McGuiro then added: "i'ho Council will bo justified in taking action to cumiel you to do your duty. You know of a viola. lion of the ordinances existing thereand It Is your duty to see that the ordinances are prop erly observed." .Mr. Devers eventually got l this shot at the chairman, "I say you gavu privilege lo dump It tlieie," to which .Mr. Medium re plied, "I (ell you you aio under a wrong ini picsslon " ,, Later Mr. Devers asked if Council would back him up if he made any arrests and lie was told that it would where the ariests wtre justifiable. During the discussion the Chief Hurcess was referred to and that ollielal arose and said, "It seems the High Constable is looking for trouble and trying to drag mo intuit. I am trying to do my duty and as Utile as I do I think tho High Constable does a d u sight less." Mr. Devers was on his feet iu au instant, but his remarks were drowned by tho chair man's lappings for order. A hill from Win. J. Ilrilt fot $37 for paving tho alley at tho rear of thu llorough building was up for second consideration. From the discussion it appeared that the Columbia Blowing Company had agieed to pavu the alloy on condition that tbo borough would grado it, and that the borough had not as sumed any responsibility for the paviig President McGuire ruled the bill out of order ou tho ground that the work had not been authorized by Council. A complaint by Mr. Hrennan that the bridge at the corner of Poplar and Chestnut streets needed repairs was referred to com mittee. The claim of $75 by Thomas Ferguson for damages by reason of his horse filling into a hole near tho Pennsylvania station was rofrrod for further investigation. The flnanco committee rcpurted through Mr. James that Edward llurke, tax collector. owes a balance of $13,521.40 on his 1867 duplicate, which amounted to $31,175.20. Mr. Straughn said that, while he appre ciated tho excellent work performed on tho part of the present tax collector, he believed tho law should bo enforced iu reference to tbo repoitsthat ho should make every month. Iu accordance with tho suggestion the secre tary was Instructed to notify Mr. llurke that monthly reports will be expected from him. Mr. James moved that the solicitor of Council fllo a written opinion as to whether it can legally exonerate real estate. Solicitor llurke was present and said ho would do so. Ho added that there was no doubt in his mind that Council had tbo right to oxouorato real estate, but iu doing so good judgmont had to be exercised and tho real cstato exonerated must not bo of a productive character. The Lamp and Watch Cotnmitteo was In structed to gt bids for police uniforms and helmets. Tho Survey Committee was instructed to ascertain if Mayberry alley has betu pro vided with a grado to Its wostorn limits. Mr. James said Council should instruct tho Supervisor to put a sigu at tho southern end of West street reading, "Danger! Contagious grouud 1" lie said tbo place is in a filthy condition. This brought a suggestion from Mr. Hoehm that tho sanitary committee of Council be abolished and tbo health affairs of tho bor ough bo left upon the shoulders of the Chief Htirgcss, High Constablo and Board of Health. President McGuiro concurred in tho sugges tion and upon motion of Mr. Coakley It was decided that the sauitary committee be abolished. It was roported that ouo of the pumps of tnt public water works Is not workiug right and Council decided lo ask tho mautifac turtrs to have tho pump examined at once. Mr. Englert reported tho fire plug In front of the Pboeuix Firo Company's houso and one near tho Indian lildgo breaker out of repair. The management of the Schuylkill Trac tion and Lakeside Electric Hallway Com panies having failed to mako satisfactory reply to Council's demand for payment for lepalrs made to tho bridges in town used by the companies, the matter was placed iu thu hands or tho law committee and the Bor ough Solicitor. Tho bond of Borough Treasurer T. J. Mullahy in the sum of $20,000 was read and ordered to bo recorded if the Solicitor finds it correct. Just before Council adjourned President McGuiio announced his appointment of com mittees as follows : Koads and HiaiiWAVs Hell, chairman, Lally, Hoehm, Ilarkius, Straughu, Coakley and Hand, Financk Hand, chairman, Straughn aud Lally.
