6 ee " WEAVY DEFALCATION IN WALL STREET, e Teller of the City Bauk Deeamps with $350,000 in Greenback, Dabbiing in the Stock of the Chicago and Rock Island Railroad the Cause of His Crime. INTERESTING LEGAL PROCEEDINGS. ‘The most intense excitement prevailed in Wall street yesterday on t nnouncement that James H. Leverich, the second teller of the City Bank, bad absconded with $350,000 in greenbacks, the property of that institu. tion, in his possession. The authorities at the bank are, ‘8s is customary In such cases, somewhat reticent on the subject of their loes, but we evabled through infor- Mation gleaned from tuem and other sources, to present @n accurate account of this most audacious robber; ‘The defaulting teller is a young man, net over twenty- five years of age, but lately married and most respect. ably connected, stauding in the relationship of nephow to Mr, Charles P. Leverich, Prasident vf the Bank of Now York. His late employers Dear high testimony tn regard to his smartness and {i telligence, and placed the highest confidence in his tegrity aud trustworthiness, He had been for sev years in the employ of the bank, and through his co rect deportment and assiduous attention to business had ‘Won tbe esteem of both his employers ard fellow clerks, He was iv tho receipt of asaiary of $2,500 a year, aud re- sided at No. 80 East Twenty-sixth street, The suspicions of the President of the Bank, Mr. Taylor, were firet aroused on learning that Leverich was paying for bis residence the bigh rent of $300 monthly, ‘and called him to account for living ino extray- @gant a manne! but Leverioh excused bim- welf by saying that so large o mansion was mecossary, as his mother and sisters intended to reside with bim. 1t has since been ascertamed that he nego- tiated with Mr, Lyman for the purchase of an estate ‘et Inglewood, but the money was net forthcoming and ‘the matter fell through, Last Monday week a note was Feecived by the first teller of the bank from Leverich f@ating that he was indisposed and might probably be @etained at home for a day or so, Several days having lapsed and he failing to appoar, the bank officials ordered an investigation of bis accounts, when ™% owas discoverca that he was a defauier te the amount of $300,000 to $350,000. The @xamivation has not yet been conciuded, and the deficit may on further investigation amount to a much Jarger figure. The olficials bave received information that be ioft nis residence at five o'ctock ou Sunday, the Bro inst. accompanied by his wife and having with bim es baggage only a small valise and travelling shaw), and Went in the direction of Seventh avenue. Previous to Dis Jeaving home he left directions with his servant girl to deliver two trunks and a hamper, which in ail pro- babiliiy containea tho greenbacks, to a cartman of the ‘Westcott Express, who would call for them on the fol Jowing morning at ten o'cock. The, girl obeyed the orders given her, and handed over the property te the expressman, who arrived at the house epctuaily to the appointed time. This baggage Las a waced to the Louse of his meter at Newtown, L 1, snd if, as 43 supposed, it contains tho stolen money, 11s recovery is regarded us certain, It is gratily- fag to stale that this dofa.cation will mot in the slightest @egree affect the credit of the City Bank, for, even ‘assuming the loss to be as high as stated, a’ surplus of $800,000 yet remains in its vaulls, aud its stock is now @elling at $175. it is curreutly reported on the street that the ruin of young Leverich bas been effected, nos Dy wo free an indulgence in fast horses and fast women, Dut by dabbling deeply in the stock of the Chicago, Rock islana and Pacilic Railroad Company, whose allairs ave of late been so prominently before the courts. In this connection {t may ot be inappropriate to pre- gent 4 brie! stawment of an interesting suit now pend- 4ng in the supreme Court, in which the Rock Island Kailroad Company are defendania, Un the 6th of Jap- sry Meser:. Fisk, Be.dea & Co. commenced an action @gainst the Chicago, Nock Island and Pacide Railrow Company ani its directors, Juvm F. Tracy, Caaries W, Durant, Francis H. Towes and oberg, alieging in their complaint that the 49,000 shares of the Kailroad Com- wy bad been Issued without any legal authority by eir Executive Committee, or a pari oi tuem, Wits the ©o-operation and consent of the defendants. ‘On atfida- ‘Wis setting forit these facts and showing that the issue was an vlozal ore Juige Cardca> granied aminj motion @gainat any transicrs of this allogbd illegal stock on the Books of the company. The plaintiffs having applied to Mesers. Towes and ‘Tracy to testify upon the motion for an injunciiou, and they having refused, Mir. Julius J Lyons was appointed as reieree to take testinony. On the 8th of January, the om appointed tor dessrs. Yowes and Tracy to attend, thSy were not present, and ap attachment was obtained trom the court against them, under which they were arrested und brought be- fore Judge Cardozo, bui having excused themselves and @erceing to attend’ the next day before the referes further proceedings were had under the attachment, Inquiry being made for the money which was received for the sale of these 49,000 shares, it was found that the whole amouat, with the exception of a thousand dolar, Lad beem taken from the orn Exchange Bank, where it was formeriy ted, and the direc.ors of the company declined to je auy joformation as to what had been done with it. ediately after the service of the tnjanction restrain- ‘$ug ‘be transfer of tlie new stock the direciors sent the tran to Chicage for the purpose of euabling the :rans(ers to be mado there, where they supposed the injunction of the Supreme Court of this State would Dave no effet. Upon discovering this the plamtffs ob. tamed an order to show cause against the dofendanis ‘why they should not be punished for contempt, alieging that this proceeding was, i fact, a violation of the in- fanction, aud also moved that the defendants be compelicd to deposit the money received for the sale of the new stock in court or poy, the same over to a receiver. The testimony en before Mr. Lyons, the referec, develops some curious facts, and isa fair specimen of the manner in ‘which stock transactions are managed. Subjoined are the material passages in the testimony of Mr. Tows aud Bverbatim report of the evidence given by Mr. Tracy. In answer to questions put to Mr. Tows be said that he ‘was unable te state under what statute the directors of company assumed to actin respect to the issue of 9,000 new shares; that meetiogs of the board of rectors, so far as he know, bad been held entirely in hs ciy at the company's olfico, 18 Williatn street ; that he was the secretary of the company and kept minutes of all the meetings of tho board, but could not tell how many there bad been; could uot say positively whetber there had been more than one, but thought there had; ‘that «ince the Ist of January an assistaet treasurer ba Deen appointed for the first time, their appointeo being Mr. B, G, Sherman; could not tell whesher auy @ppointinent hed or bad not been made since the suit wa: commenced on the 6th of January; he could not Fecoliect any act done by tho board of directors since orgauization of the company; the executive com- tee had mot frequently, always in the city of Now York ; he was absent in Europe from June $ to Sspiem- ber 19, during which time Mr, Ebenezer Cook ucied as secreiary of the committee in his piace; it was during this period that the issue of the 49.000 ‘new shares was Tesolved upon f ihe company's bools ‘was sent oul of 6 January; t were taken from ui linor, thi fer clerk, about twelve o'¢.v¢k, aud delivered by bh Mr, 8.

Important Decision—Rights of Petitioners Individuals and as Members of Auy Firm. Before Judge Blatchford, In the Matter of Henry Lewis, Individually and as a Copartner and for and on Behalf of the Coparinership Firm of #, H. Lewis.—In this case the Register om the i8ih of Novembor, 1867, ona petition filed by Henry Lewis individually, aud as @ copartuer of the firm of P. H. Lows, on the 13th of November, 1867, adjudged Henry Lewis, algo of the said firm of P. & H. Lewis, bankrupt. The petition was not joined in by Philip Lewis, who witn Henry Lewis composed the firm, nor did Philip Lewis asseut to having the firm declared bankrupt, This action of tye Register Was erroneous, General order 18 presents the proper practice in such a cuse, Where potition is fied to have a firm deciared bankrupt, if all the members of the trm do not join in or assent to the petition, notice of its ‘filing must be given to euch of its members as do not jom in it or assent to it, in like manuer as if the proceedings were on au involuntary bankruptcy against tme members of the firm. Until this is done the Kegis- ler has uo authority to make aa adjudicauon in regacd to the bankruptey of the firm. Pnuip Davis now pro sents to the Court a voluntary petition under the Bank- rupt act, which prays that ho and fiery Lewis may bo adjudged bankrupt, and be discharged trom their debta, The petition set forth the copartnership aud the fact of the tiling of a petition im bankruptcy by Henry Lowis, and is in other respects in form @ copartnership petition according to form No. 2. ‘The petition refers to schedules annexed to it as being schedules ef the debis and assets of the copartnersbip, aad of the debts aud asects of Phinp Lewis individually. Philip Lewis asks, on filing this petition, for an order that ho may bave 9 Join in the proceedings 80 heretofore taken by Lowi-, and of being made a party to the procecd- 4ugs bereunder, So far as (his potition of Philip Lewis expreases bis assent to have the firm declared bankrupt, aud bis desire to join in the petition of Heary Lewis, Philp Lewis may be properiy led a8 joining im the potion of Henry Lewis to have the tirm doclared bank- Tupt, 50 as to eilecta compliance with general order No, 18, and thus validate tue adjudication of bankrupts in reapoct to the firm. But it is not in any other respect necessary (or Philip Lewis te join in the proceod- ings taken by Henry Lewis, or to make a pariy to them. ‘The procoodings in respect to the creditors of the firm and the creditors of Henry Lewis judividualiy will (ake place under the petition of Henry Lowi, The proceedings im regard to tho creditors of Philip Lewia individually will take place undor the petition of Philip Lowis, will be adjudged a bankrapt and receive a discharge under bis own peution, Heury Lewis will also receive a discharge ander his own petition. So far as the petition of Puilip Lewis is petition for au adjudication of the bankruptcy of the firm, it may bo disregarded, except as indicating his assent to join in the petition of Heury Lewis for an adjudication of the bankruptcy of the firm, Under such circumstances general order No, 16 will mot apply to the case, as there will be but one partner for an adjudication of the bank- Tuptcy of the firm, The petition of Philtp Lewis will be referred to the same Register who has charge of the case of Henry Lewia, Benedict and Boardman for the defendants, Petitions Filed Yemerdny.
