Dr, Turpin 15 just now hending his energies to the task of making a complete inventory of the real estato eccurities. In one column he puts down tha sum of money toancd on mortgages, and in another column he wants to insert a commaon- ecnee description of the property, an1 a cor- rectly-appratsed value thercof.

The petition which be filed Saturday, asking Jeave to prosceute and defend all kinds of suits which may nrise in thecourscof his receivership, awl aleo askiug the appointment of these cx- yerts to value the real estate, came up before Judee Mcore yesterday morniag.

In fact, he regarded it as an fdlo Inquiry which could do no good aud might do harm.

Mr. Jewett, oounsel for Mr, ITalnes, had no objection to the petition except with regard to the request for the appratsers. Mr. Dupec, for the, Recelver, explained that 1t was that gentleman's desire to make a report tothe Court ua soon ns possible. Somo value hiad to be plaved on these asscts, the real estate requlring particular investization from people posted fn such mutters, Clearty, the Recelver ought not to guess at these things, but should go outside and securo the assistunce of gentle- men mote competent to pags ou the question. 1t was possible that questions might arlee as to the bunk's sccurities, und as to whetber the Kecciver should commence suits. The petition Aid not ask that he be authorized to sell Should an appraisement bo made now, and ghould the value of the property rise before the time to dispose of u.l the Recetver would most undoubtedly take advantage of that rise. Mr. Jewett thought an appraisement now wonld be ainatter of guess-work at best, and puessea at this time were apt to be azainst tho par value. There were $100,000 worth of asscta Inthe bank, which, if sold now, would not bring o5 cents, but for which the Lecelver could, ln the, get nearly theie (mr value, Mr. Dupee replied that it was a question if the depositors Qid not bave 3 right to kuow the present value of the proverty, It was not the objeet ot the Court to advise the depositors to scll or hold thelr clalms, But the depositors were catitied to the nformation, aud they could act as they thoght best In view ol it ‘The Court aaid that he could not shut his eyes 10 the fuct that there have been before the pul- e two appralsals of the property, ong by Mr, Derckson, the other by Mr. Haines, and that the newspapers clalmed that these were too high. fle did not want any misicuding of the devositors, 11 be should do anything, it would De to give these partles accarate nformation. At the request of 3r.

All that could bo learned {n regard to the matter of thelr con- versation was that * Uncle 8yd” explulned, in a practical way, what he meaut by * looking outslda of the hole atter the exploslon for the fragwents.” In other words, he put Mr, Ward on the track of certain real estate, told how it was incumbered, ete., the particulars of which the public would o doutt like to know, but for which fu will have Lo wait untll Mr. Ward makes his,report to the Court.

TIH STOCKIIOLDERS' BUITS, Judgo Farwell grunted an carly audlence yes- teraay morning to the attorneys Interested In the bill to enjoln creditors of the Btate Bavings Institution from rushing in indlscriminately ond sulng the stockhulders, to the preat preju- dlee of the Becetver, who believes he ousht to wet all that 13 collected in that way, to swell the assets. As Judge Farwell was to preside at the trial of certain high-minded citizens uver the river ut 10 o'dock, 1t huvd been urranged that he thould meet the sttorneys intercsted In the Otix bill at 9 o’clock room ut the Clty- Hull, Accondingly at that hour there were, Lesides the Court, present Messrs. flich nnd Bonney, for the Recelvor; Messrs. Dall, Schuy: ier, auid Chesbrough for certain of the deposit ors who bave_brought sull ascainet the stock- lulders; ana Messrs, Lemnon and Rogers, repro- senting certain stockholdera. I'he proceedings were opened by the Court's reprecenting that he supposed the'attorneys for the Kecelver desired a time fixed for the hearing of the wotlon. Mr, Bouney etated that ho was presont to ask tho Court 10 fix a time for a hearlug, and to srunt a temporary stay of proceedings uutil that caring could be had. Measre. Ball, Schuyler, and Cheabrough ob- jected to 'HY stay of proceedings, Mr. Bchuyler renuarkiog that possibly the Court could heas the care th two weeks, and deterwine whether an tnjunction was the pruver thing to be grant- «l. 1nthe meantime, bodid not think the in- terests of the Recelver would suffer, ‘IThe Court did not see the vecessity of & tem- posury mLum:tluu, Inaemwuch us o judgment cunld be obtained until the wotion was heard. Mr. Bunney said the application was wade by one of the oflicers o1 the Court, Some lunx'gr y or fifty uctions wt law had been cowmmences theae depositors. 11 the order for a temporary stay of proccedines was granted, it would prevent a prefercuce to these depositors. If the Court should dectue to make an order for tuls tewporary stay of proceedings for & week or Lwo, the wembers of the Bar would not dare tokeep buck the auits fest they sbould Lo charged with neglect of the {uterests of their cliente. In that thne there might be 100, or 200, or 800 of these uctluns ut luw brought.” He Lad po doubt whatever that when the matter waa heard )t would be allowed.

The Court doubted the propriety nf making an order of this kind. Ifit wna ‘inade, there would have to ba a bond given to &ccure alt there men that they were not prejudiced b, reason of others coming In and gmth the prel- erence. If they were prevented by Injunction from coming {n and '{,"“'" the “preference, there would have to be a bond to indemnify them for Josing the rigbt of bcm;é stayed In these ruits, Ilo was inclined to think, inas- much as o Judgment could be obtalued before this motion for an Injunction could be heard and decided, that it woull bo an improper proceeding on his part to enjolnj at any rate, it he should enjoin, he should nsk such a bond as would protect everybody. The point fn tho ense, he supposed, was that romebuody, by suing first and getting o judg- ment, coitld recover. The law was such that, if n person got Judgment against a stockhokder who was , the ‘wmm conld collect the amount of his Habllity, leaving others to look the other stockholders. As for the of preventing them purpose from getling B?x. preference, the Reeelver claimed—and such might be the Iaw—that tho stockholders shunld pav all they owed into a common fund for the benefit of ‘all the deposit- ora, They,on the contrary, thought that by rushing in under the statute they could vollect. Mr. Ball sald it all came_back to the question whether or not this was a double Hability of the stockholders whether the clatm on the stock- holder was an assct of the hank or not. The Court thought that Judge McAllister had declded that, Mr, Schinyler sahl the decision appeared on its face to declde the matter, but on investiga- tlon he_had found that it did not. The Court remarked that {f these men were not to ‘xct Judgment before he lieard the motion, hie_should not be indined to issuc any temporary injunction, 1€ he did, it would have to be with aboml, If anybody thougt hest tosue before he heard the motion, he would have to 1o 50 on his own responaibllity and at Lis own costs, No ]ud%mrm coulil be obtalned untit the motion was heard, and he did not suppose the stockholders would'confess indement. le could not ges that the Recelver woulid be dam- aged by this refusal to grant the stay, al- tmgh, as had been enld, it would mnke a [ MANT SUITS AND CONSIDRRARLE PUBS.
