DMore of the Elevator Firm’s Trans- actions Unfolded. The Agerement. with Armour About Taking Charge of the ‘Warehouses, Yesterday morning Mr. Tra Y. Munn, of the elovator firm of Munn & Scott, was again before Register Hibbard, and in reply to interrogataries Dy the counsel for. creditors, responded ss fol- lows: The Northwestorn, Munn & Scott, and Union Elevators were conveyed on Sept. 23, by deed, to Georgo Armour, which deed was made at witness’ own suggestion, and for the rea- son, a8 he told Armour, that Munn & Scott were embarrassed, and he wished to protect the pub- licin the use of the elevators. Did not know that be stated to Armour the extent of the lia- ‘bilities, but said it would take about $300,000 to carry them through. Armour consented to sc- copt the deed on the day following the first con- versation, without any pledges whatever on his own part. The object of making the deed was to put Armour in possession of the ele- vators, being eatisfied that everything would be dome rightly. It was - under- stood, though nothing was saud, that Ar- ‘mour would carry on the elevator business as Munn & Scott had done. Hiram Wheeler was Mr. Hoyt had not at thet time stated that ho was going to advertise any mortgage held by him. Scott was not present at the preliminary nogotiations, but witness informed him before the deod was exccuted. The intention was that all parties in the elevator interost should ro- ceive their portion of the bonefits resulting, bt this was not 80 with regard to outside parties, Dbecause Munn & Bcoth intended to take care of outsido parties, and would have dono 8o if they bad been left salone. The indebtedness of Munn & Scott to parties expect- ed to bo benefited was about $300,000, Schedules siled show about what that indebtodness was. About 33,500 hied been paid on_claims _against Munn, Norton_& Scott ; the firm of Munn & Beott have paid sbout 310,000 worth of claims, Thero were call loans of Munu & Scott outstand- ing st the timo of making tho decd to Armour, abont $25,000 to tho National Bank of Illinois. Thero were no other call loans, but Munn & Scott were indebted to tho banks besides the amounts sppearing in_their atatement; about 55,000 to the Union National, about $25000 to the Northwestern, £40,000 or §50,000 to tho Merchants' Loan & Trust Compuny. Did not know whether theso panks had been paid or not; they had not beest paid by Munn & Scott; these were not put on the schiedule, be- causo. the banks had_collaterals; they might Dave disposed of tho collatorals, and in that case tho claims would not be outstanding. Tho Na- tional Bank of Illinois had received its mone throngh Armour & Co., who had collaterals an took up the notes. Didn't know whether tho banks had been paid or not, but his impression was that 89 all tho banke lLeld collaterals_they hed reslized the outstanding - indebtedness. Tho Wyndbam National Bank, of Connocticut, hod warchouse receipts os collaterals to- the amount of 310,000; didn’t think that had been taken up; didu't know, but supposod there wero from 2,000,000 to 2,500,000 receipts outstanding Desides thoso mentioned. The firm of Munx, Norton & Scott bought, eold, and shipped grain outside tho elevator business, and in violation of the agreement of 1806, in which outside business of Munn & Scott tho’ elevator intercst had no ehare. Tho property convoyed to C. & W. Wheeler, Sept. 23, 1872, was for $30,000 as_ clovator divi- dends, because the Whoelers needed tho money badly. Didn't know anything about Hugh Ma- ber, and nover talked with bim abont the wheat corner. Thero wae an agreoment between Munn & Scott, John Lyon, and s Canadian, whose name witness conld not 13call, in regard to tho wheat corner. They made s pool, snd Muon & Scott put in €50,000. Didn't jmow whother Hugh Eln.her was in the agreement or not. Itis Dot true that £300,000 was mado on that corner 80 far asMunn & Scott was concerned, but what- ever was made, Munn & Scott would be cntitled to iheir share, Never call- ed for any scconnt of amounts received, because thoy always supposed thero was & lods on it. The property conveyed to Ar- mour & Whecler was Munn & Scott's inter- est in tho Elovator Associatiori. Witness guessed Lio would not answer how the indebtedncss mentioned in Munn & Bcott's schedule to George Armour occurred, because he didn't want fo. Couldn' say what tho amount of indcbledness was o Armour, Mun- ger, theWheelers, Perry Smith, and Dunlap & MeKay.

Didn't thiuk he would answer out of what that’ indebtednees srose. Declived to give an answer why ho would not answer. Tho matter was theroupon prescnted to the Court, who takes it undor advisement mntd Monday. THE LAW COURTS. NOTES OF INTEREST, In tho Minn examination, yestordsy, the bankrupt protested against reporters being present, other than oficial reportors engaged for the Court. He objected to the publicity given to his statements, and as there scems very grave resson to question whother the witness will speak as fully betore s newspaper reporter a8 beforo the select fow who are officially obliged to be present, an idea prevails that all future meotings will be held with closeddoors. It will be remembered in this case that the first oxamination of any public intorest-to which 3r. Munn was sub- jected Was reportell in & very mesgro manner; the simple truth is thatthe affair was exploded on the reporters, and they knew noth- ing about it till it was over, and so could not Lelp themselves ; they made up for tho loss, Lowever, by buttonholing tho obliging official short hand writer., There were many admissions made by Mr. Munn, and somo expressions used, which that gentleman would undoubtedly not have uttered had » newspaper reporter -been prosent. The next time there was to be an oxamination, the reporters were again forced to be contented with a bare ides of what had boen said, & skeléton of half & quarter of a shad- ow of a summary, which-was, however, as much as Register Hibbard—who, it must be confessod, has shown every desire, throughout, to trent the reporters with oqual fairness, und to givo them as much information os his distracted head could well be supposed to carry —could be expected to supply. hat, the nesy day, the bankrapt completed his evidence, and TiE TRIsuNE pounced upon it and published it. The effect was very disagrecable to Mr. Munn, {rank confidences of & select few being bruited abroad by Tae TumuNe; of his bemng, I the Teporter may trust to his memory, © baited by tho newspaper headings.” Judgo’ Blodgott had once allowed, for a epecific purpose; and, no doubt, with a'wise and propor object in view, & secret examination to tako place, and Mr. Mupn now desired this secrecy to be perpetual. When tho question cameé up, yesterday, the Register eaid he did not_undorstand that the permission of His Honor, in reference to s par- iculsr cxamination, necessarily applied to all future examinations, especially as & reporter from TaE TaiBUSE had been present at recent meeting, and teken down the ovidence, without any objection being raised, [An examination, on Mondsy last, at which, besides the witnoss and the lawyers interested, there were " prosent tho Register, the official reporter, and & Trmuxe zeporter, end which might have ‘been_attended, for all that was said to- tho contrary, by the e, porters of all the other papers of the city, hed they preferred to be present.] On the occasian in_question, the Tegistor ppinted out, the lavyers on cither side were in fheir places whon the representative of TiE TrmUNE took his seat, and no ono objected to his meking notes ; and g0 long ns both sides consented tacitly to & newspaper reporter being in sttendance, there could be 1o good reason to atand up for the Judgo's ruling on another occnsion.
