The examination into the Jay rupte Cooke bank- case was resumed in Philadelphia on ‘uesday before Re; Mason. The Record prints the examination of Jay Cooke, which was closed until Sept. 15th, and says: Henry D. Cooke, the head of the Washington house, w: then called. He testitied as follows: He had no reason to anticipate the suspension of the firm before that event took place; on the day of the suspension he believed they had on hand at the ‘Wasbington house the usaal amount of cash; the relations existing between the First N: tional Bank of Washington and the firm of Jay Cooke & Co. he explained in this wise: The individual members of the firm were the prin- cipal owners of the bank, which institution sus- pended payment on the same day Jay Cooke & Co. did; the bank was not indebted to the firm, but the firm owed the bank about $109,000, which amount was contracted on a current ac- count; @ portion of it grew out of bonds and other transactions. Witness was then asked to refer tothe ledger of the Washington house and turn to the ac- count of this bank. He did so, and continued. The bank held no security tor the indebted bees of the firm; we held $19),000 security in ‘orthern Pacific railroad bonds, and that w the bonds were given at the time of the dis- count of certain notes; to his knowledge the Grm did not turn over any other securities, bonds, ete., three months prior to the suspen- sion; at the time the bank suspended he was in- debted to it persopaliy in the sum of 249,000; the affairs of the bank are being settled up by the controller of the currency, through a receiver, and as yet that official has made no final adjust- ment of the tirm's account with the bank; at the time of suspension the Potomac Ferry com- pany bad overdrawn their account; the tirm were interested in the bonds of the company, and some ot the firm were interested in the stock; he was consulted at times as to the affairs of the ferry comp At the request of counsel, Gov. Cooke referred to several accounts in the ledger which were shown to have been overdrawn at the time of suspension, among others that of President Grant, who had drawn out $2 506.87 more that he had deposited. He had contidence in Jay Cooke’s judgment when ke recommended the negotiations in the Northern Pacific bonds. During the months of April and May, 1873, the sales of all kinds of bonds were reduced on ac- count of the stringent condition of monetary affairs. The property owned in Washington was owned by the firm indirectly, as already stated. The trustee bas realized a tair price on everything he has sold. When he received the telegram announcing the suspension of the Philadelphia house he asked for advice and r- ceived instructions to suspend payment. In the early part of September, 1873, money was very searce and deposits were being withdrawn, bat as the house had passed through many such tight places he supposed that all was safe; that provision had been made for any contingency. This provision was made by calling in loa: and by personal contributions. Messrs. v Cooke, Moorehead and Fahnesock ci tributed. He was upable at the time to do so. Mr. Fabnestock occasionally and incidentaily expressed doubts as to the propriety of making such advances to the North Pacific company; on the day the crisis took place he was at the Governor’s office, and was not expecting any- thing of the kind; he understood in a general way that the New York house was being more generally drawn upon by the Philadelphia house than it desired; since 1562 the firm has had transactions with the United States Treasury department; the firm had negotiated about two thousand millions of dollars for them; he was president of the First National Bank, and at the time of its failure it was a debtor of the ‘Treasury department in about £175,000, which grew out of continuous transactions; the sub- scription agency of the firm was directly con- nected with the Treasury department, and the house by its clearances was indirectly connect- ed. At this point the examination was conc ded tor the day. This witness will also be ex- amined in Sertember. fhe Tart Cleland Race: Th Yesterday, at Cleve- land, Obto, the first race was tora purse of $5,500, free to all.

THE BEECHES SCANDAL. ‘ Particulars by Mail and Telegraph Last ‘The Beecher examining committee met again last night in Brooklyn, but adjourned, after a session lasting one hour, without, it is believed, examining avy witherses, as none save members ot the committee entered or left the house.

DID TILTON PROCURE HIS OWN ARREST? The New York Jribune yesterday 8a) ‘When the news of the arrest of Mr. Tilton came to the ears of the members of the investigating commitice and of their counsel and advisers, there were many ex, os of surprise and of incredulity. B. F. Tracy said that the arrest was a fraud, a mere trick, ® sham that would have noeffect upon the committee. Mr. Hill called it the merest fari Jude the public, as the; bottom of it. "T. ¢ & device of Mr. Tilton, a new effort to keep himself constantly betore the eye of the pablic. It would make no difference in the work of the committee.

The New York Sun says:—“Last Sunday Theodore Tilton made an unsaccessful attempt to see bis former wife (ashe calls ber.) He called at Mr. Ovington’s house, and told Mrs. « cnn ton that if his wife would like to see him he should be pleased to see her. Mrs. Ovington re- plied that she would take the m up etairs to Mrs. Tilton. She soon retu with the answer that Mrs. Tilton did not desire to see bim and did not think it best. He then went inte quite & protracted conversation about his treubles, in the course of which he remarked that his wife had made @ great mistake in not putting her case into his hands. If she had done that, he said, he would have protected her en- tirely. Finally, before leaving, he repeated his request to see his wife, and Mrs. Ovington went up stairs with the second message; but Mra. Ti - ton persisted in her refusal, and be went away without seeing her.” ANOTHER DENIAL PROM MBS. TILTON. Mrs. Tilton utterly denies that she ever had any euch conversation with Miss Anthony as is alleged. She says that ail she told Miss Au thony or any other woman was that her husband accused her of adultery, and not that she was guilty of it. MRS. WOODEULL TO COMMENCE AN ACTION AGAINST NOAB DAVIS. Yesterday Mrs. Victoria C. Woodhull was in censultation with ber counsel, Mr. Charles W Brooke. The published cross-examination o: ‘Theodore Tilton was examined by them. The various motives assigned to Mrs. Woodhall by Mr. Tilton for the publication of the scandal were discussed. Mrs. Woocbull indignantly denied that her relations with Mr. Tilton, Mr. Beecher, and Mr. Moulton and their families were maintained to conciliate her, and that Mr. Tilton ever rendered her any servic on that score. It is said that proceedings are to be in- stituted '_—— Judge Noah Davis for the ar réstand imprisonment of Mrs. Woodbull, and that it can be shown that he was aware that there was no law for the arrest when he istued the warrant. Mrs. Woodhull sass that it is surprising that Mrs. FJizabeth Cady Stanton or Mrs. Susan B. Authony did not open their lips before to the public. The time was, she added, when they spoke freely of the scandal and com: @emned Mr. She -ays that she simpl; aske that they will tell the whole trath, au: then she will be vindicated. Bricham Youne has been interviewed upon things ip general. He says that the Mormons were the first to = e idea of building & railroad from the Atlantic tothe Pacific, and that as farback as 1852 the territorial legisla- ture had memorialized Congresson the sub- ject. Betore the days of the railroad he erected Scotton mill at Sait Lake,the machinery of which was transported across the plains and mountains by ox teams. The cotton used b: the Mormon factories is Utah, and is fully equal to that raised in Ten- hersce. ae. Young added ¢ that he is Row ex- erimenting on the proj jon and oys- fers in the river Jordan, and hopes to succeed. The first intimation he had of Utah was from Fremont’s book, in which the General de- scribed Salt Lake, stating that it was salt at the northern end and fresh at the southern end. This wasa mistake, caused by the fact that Freemont, in going westward, passed the north- ernextremity of Salt Lake, and in returni: passed Utah Lake, which is’ further south and y in southern THE PITTSBURG CLOUD BURST.
