Although a large number of complaints were heard by Marshal Tooker yesterday, and disposed of in short and sharp style, yet there were none of more than ordinary interest or importance save that of McCracken vs. Scott and ‘Tripp. The sub- stance of the compiaint in this case was published exclusively in the Heratp of Sunday jast, and since that time a number of verbal complaints and written statemeots have been presented to the Marshal, which, if they be true, are certainly of the most damaging characier. A letter was received by Mayor Hall, purporting to come from the counsel for J. Walter Scott, containing state- ments to theeffect that the man McCracken, who made the complaint, was unworthy of credit, and impugning the motives which prompted tne com- plainant to make the charges, A Geputy sheriff was on hand armed with an order of arrest against Mc- Cracken, but he unfortunately called just before the latter arrived, and again just after he nad leit.

Ever since the exclusive publication in the HERALD of the late sharp duancial operation through which, $26,000 was obtained from, the Na- tional Bank of the State of New York, through forged checks purporting to be signed by Jay Cooke & Co., there has been seaulous endeavors in certain quarters. to envelope the whole affair in a. veil of deep and Impenetrable mystery, It was denied that the checks were forgeries, and then the amount of money realized on them was reduced to an insignifi- cant sum, Without assuming to state the meaning of this mystery and, reasons of these contradictory statements one fact we can most positively state, and that is, that Justice Dowling has determined to give the matter a thorough sifting, and, while seek- ing to prevent the condoning of crime, do his utmost ‘wo Visit a the guilty parties their merited punish- ment. verbal complaint. in tae matter, ib ap- pears, was first made to Judge and chen the case taken before the City Judge. ling heid that the case on t came properly, if not solely, witnin risdiction, and on this statement to City Judge the latter functionary very cour- teously conceded to him his right of tL renee Meantime only one iy, &@ man givibg his name as James Smith, nes been arrested, and is now confined in the Tombs. He has been positively iden- titled as having presented one of the forged checks and received the money upon it. The present pre- sumption is that he offered the ovhers und was aigo the recipient of the remainder of the money, though thus far no positive proof has been offered on this point. It is clear the bank has not received back any m of the money paid on the checks, and it 1s equaily clear that no more skilful forgeries have been perpetrated in tus city for along time, no jess than three sepa- rate names having been forged on each check and so successfully done as to lead to prompt payment of the money Without tue ordinary precaution—and especially in checks of such large sums and partica- larly when the person or persous offering them were stranzers—of identitication of those presenting them.

The statement published In tho MERALD on Sun- day last in reference to the absconding and defaica- tion of Mr. E. H. Peck, o1 the warehouse firm of Parker & Peck, still continues to create excitement and tuterest among those interested in our ware- house system. It is now alleged that the absconding partner of the firm has but litiie money wita hiu—probably not more than a few hundred doliars—and that the missing funds were not takea by him lately, but have been used at various times during the Last two years for paying certain losses sustained by Mr. Peck in consequence of uafortunate grain specdlations at the Wesi, inate which he entered between two and three years since. Mr. Johu W. Mott, President of the United States Warehouse Company, apptied to Judge Gilbert for an injunction resiraining tue delivery of any Caiifor- nia Wheat, oats or corn from the warehouse, on the ground that the bulk of those cereais now stored there belongs to tue Company Which he represents, and that the removal of any of them on the demand of private partes will work injury to that corporation, The Judge granted the injunction, Waich is based on affidavits aad a com- ee setting Jorth ulleged fraudulent practices on he part of tue Wareliousemen, and pray! that the removal of all grain be enjoined until such property as is now in store be fully identified by the parties Claiming ownership of the same and @ judi deter. mination be had of the legal questions growing out of the defaication. * Sheritf Campveil.on recetving the order of the Court, proceeded imaiediately to execute it, and bs Gapones how have the Warehouse under their charge. ter- ence of opinion arose, in the day reiative to the proper interpretation of the order.
