New York, Nov. 7, 1881. “My Dear Captain: Your favor of the Sth inst. Was received yesterday. I gave your letters, de- mand, &c., to Mr. B. for his consideration. ' He leap me an engagement last Friday week, and failed to keep tt. “A few days after he went home to Connecticut sick. I have been very busy with my own affairs, and shall leave in a day or two for ‘New Orleans. mm what I learn, though, affairs are in @ hell of a muddle through some parties who boughtsome backbone stock honestly, and throt some other parties who were in Congress and the Senate when the bill was erin ‘who repre- sent stock that was pald as bribes. “As the road is now an assured fact I care but. Sheed aay ae for ea all ings, delight to see a rigil and close investiga- ton, and if they do not spoll the chance by settle ment I shall move an investigation in December. If they settle of course they will all swear one way. If they don’t settle then we might get some truth, and in that case you and Newell would be of valu- able assistance. “I am only sorry for Mr. Wheelock, “I trust you and Col. Newell will get your honest dues. I suppose Mr. B. will give you direct answer a8 soon as he is well. But trom the shape of things I think there will be no settlement at ail, but that | a devil of a row will be kicked up, and that when Co meets that resolution of final forfeture will be passed. 1 shall leave here in a day or two forhome.

Developments This Morning in the Equity Court, ASSIGNEE SMITH CAUSES A GREAT SURPRISE—ERE DESCRIBES THE RELATIONS OF DISTRICT COMMIB~ SIONER EDMONDS WITH THE BANK—QE THINKS THE CREDITORS MAVR & RIGHT TO MB EDMONDS’ BAFE, &C. The case of T. C. Crawford against J. H. Squier and his assignee, J. B. Smith, for an injunction and the appointment of a receiver, was before Judge Cox, in the Equity Court, this morning—Messrs. Cook and Cole for complainants, Messrs. Allen Rutherford and R. D. Mussey for Squier, Judge Shellabarger for the assignee, and Mr. N. Wilson for District Commissioner Edmonds Mr. ‘Squier anda number of his creditors were present. Mr. ‘Squier’s answer was read denying the allegations in the amended bill, He denied every charge of fraud or attempted fraud, and asserted that the assignment was made equally for the protection of ‘the creditors. Mr. J. B. Smith, the assignee, in his answer sald at the time of the assignment there was but in the bank. He denied that Squier or any one had taken away or suppressed anything of the assets. He states that ie ts unable to give the amount of abilities, because he does not know ‘the amount of Squier’s paper out. He dentes that he ts under the control and influence of Squier, or that the assignment 1s virtually an assigninent to juier himself. He admits that he has received no schedule of assets except from the books; but he belleves that a correct account can be made. ‘MR. EDMONDS’ RELATIONS WITH SQUIER Mr. Smith's answer further states in regard to the averment that Squier hada silent partner, some responsible person, “that this respondent has ‘no knowledge in regard to said matter, except that ‘he Is informed and believes that James B. Edmonds, of the city of Washington and District of Colum- Dia, was at the time of and before the sald ons meht under a contract relation with the said Squier, Which relation was from time to Ume evidenced by several written contracts between sald Edmonds and said Squier. Respondent is not able to give a copy of the sald contract now in force. He re- questa said Edmonds to permit respondent since the assignment was made to gee the contract, but ‘the sald Edmonds did not furnish such Inspection torespondent. ‘That at the ume the said = ment Was made,to wit: on the 7th day of June, 1884, and for several years before that time, sald contract or contracts existed between the said. H. Squier and Edmonds, the substance of which was a3 Tespondent can state, follows :—That the said Edmonds would and did furnish money to the said ‘Squier, the amount whereof respondent cannot aver, for which a note or notes were given to the said Edmonds, and it was by Said writings that sald Squier would buy pay vouchers at such Fates as to yield a certain dé ated profit; that ‘these vouchers should be delivered from time to Ume to the said Edmonds, and that there should ‘be collecied by the salc Squier, when they became due, upon his delivering to said Edmonds other Vouchers of equivalent amount and like kind with those surrendered for coliection; and that in the Settlement of the said matters relating to the sald vouchers, as purchased under the said written con- ‘tracts, the sald Squier should pay to the said Ed- monds the principal sum by him advanced and ev- idenced by sald promissory notes, and also the interest on said principal at the rate of one and one-half percent permonth. In view of the matters aloresaid existing between the suid Edmonds and the said J. H. Squier, respondent believes and charges that respondent, a8 assl ‘and_the creditors of the sald J. H’ Squier & Co., have an interest in all vouchers purchased under said con- tracts. and are entitled to have an accounting in com ape and aie charges that i an jonds 1s ‘proper and necessary party case. Respondent is Informed and chat thata large amount of vouchers of the kind calied for and described in said written contracts between the sald Edmonds and said J. H. Squier, and which were purchased by said Squier pursuant to said written contracts, are now in the safe claimed by sald Edmonds as private property, and which 1s 1p the said banking room on Pennsylvania avenue, In this city; and the respondent avers and chai Unat the said vouchers ought, under the order of Lhe court to be placed in the possession of this respondent and assignee, for the of taking sald account and for the purpose of securing any interest which said creditors may be found, under ‘the direction and order of the court, to have in the same. Respondent has not since said Was made, nor at any time, had access said Vouchers $0 kept by sald Edmonds in said safe clitimed by him: and respondent has not the com- bination of the lock of the safe and never bad it. The reading of tbls part of the answer caused a sensation in court, Tue counsel then proceeded to argue the case. ‘The court took the papers, and will announce its decision to-morrow.
