The prisoners on trial are Joseph Heins, Jacob Lindauer, Martin Smith, and "Butch" Muller. A large quantity of plunder found in their possession was identified by different people in Jersey City and Bayonne as having been stolen from their houses. On January 13 last the detectives made a descent on the premises No. 141 Mott street, New-York, occupied by Jacob Lindauer, and there found the stolen property.
