> NEW YORK CITY. THE COU UN'TED STATES DISTRICT cOUST. portant Decision in Bankruptcy—Validity of Chatte!l Mortgages for Pre-existing Debte— Rights of Assignees in Bankruptcy. The following opinion has just been given by Judge Blatchford:— The bankrupt filed his voluntary petition in bank- ruptcy in this court on the 24th of Decemoer, 1868. Horace Bedell was appointed his assignee on the 3d of February, 1869. In October, 1865, Mrs. Adela Gil be t loaned tothe bankrupt the sum of $250, no time of .epayment being agreed upon. On the I7th of December, 1868, she loaned to the banki the further sum of $1,000, on the security then and there given, 01 @ chattel mortgage, executed by the bank- Tupt to her, on certain Rousehold furniture of his, ‘The loan of the $1,000 was made on condition that the mortgage should secure tie payment not only of the $1,000, but of the $250 previously lent. The mortgage waa so drawn and the amount secured by it was made payable on demand, and it was duly led im the proper Office. On the ath of Feb fe 1860, the mortgagee demanded payment from bankrupt of the almount secured by the morgage. On the 8th of February, 1869, Mrs. Gilbert assigned the m to Joseph A. Salomon, and Salomon then an ere paid to her as the consideration therefor the sum of $1,250, Subsequently Salomon ovtamed possession of the mortgaged property, it having been removed trom the in of the bankrupt without the consent or Knowledge of the assignee m paukruptcy. What has since become of the property does not appear. The assignee to bankruptcy now presents u petition to this court, claiming that the mortgage 18 void as to the credi- tors of the erecta pt and eevee that is may be set asife as fraudulent and void and that the property May be put into lis possession and be tor the benefit of the creditors of the bankrupt. Mrs, Gii- bert Salomon and the bankrupt have appeared and answered the petition, and proofs have beep taken on a reference for that parpose, ‘The mortgage to Mrs. Giloert, so far as concerns the $1,000, secured by it, isnot shown not to have been made in good faith. Jt was made fora then present cousideration of $1,000 loaned, and was given as security for ihe debt thus created, and it was in all respects otherwise valtd, and it was re- corded pursuant to the statute of the State of New York, it must, theretore, under the fourteenth sec- tion of tiie Sankruptey act, be held to be a valid mort- ice a8 aga nist the assignee in bankruptcy, 80 far as 1,000 of tie amount secured by it 1s concerned. As to the $200 covered by the mortgage, I think the evi- dence sais to show that Mrs, Gilbert had reasonable cause io believe, when, she received the mortgage, that it was madein fraud of any provision of the Bankruptcy act. It must, therefore, stand as a valid mortgage for the who!e amount secured by It. But while the amount secured by the mo. must be paid out of the proceeds of the property, if they are suiticient for that purpose, the property Ate self must be sold in such mainer as to realize the largest possible amount. Jt passed to the assignee in bankruptcy, and the title to it vested in him as of the 2th of December, 1833. The debt was not de- manded from the bankropl nor was auy action taken by the mortgagee to disturb the status of the property, until after the assignee was appointed, m the time of tie filing of the bankrupt’s petution the property was in the hands of the Court, and at least from the time of the appoiniment of the assig- nee the possession of it by the bankrupt was in law the possession of it by the assignee. The taking of any of it under the mortgage was after that ume unlawful, and a taking of it from the custody of this Court and of an officer thereof. Its vaiue must be accounted for as of the time it wastaken. It pgnete by the bankrupts scheaules that the value of thepproperty exceeds the amount of the mortgage, The assignee in bankruptcy has a@ right to seil the property if 1% can be restored to him in specie and retain surplus of its proceeds after paying the mo} If it or any part of it spall not bere- atored to bim the defendants concerned in taking it or such part of it must account to the assignee 11 bankruptcy for its value or for the value of such Dart of it as of the time it was taken. If a reference te necessary to ascertain such value it must be had to the register in charge ot the case. When his re- port thereon shall pe made the Court will make such order as shail be proper as to the payment of the mortgage. . 'T. Burwell for the assignee in bankruptcy. M. J. Friedlander for the defendants. UNITED STATES COMMISSIONERS’ court. Alleged Violation of the Stamp Act—Kaid on the Morrisania Brewerles—Important Ar- Before Commissioner Shields. The United States vs. Anton Hupfsel, M. Kunze, Gotlib Schott, John Eichler, Henry Moenchhausen, Arnold Henrich, Adolph Muller.—The defendants ‘were arrested yesterday afternoon at Morrisania, on a charge cf dcirauding the revenue tn removing the stamps from the spigot holes of lager beer kegs and not destroying or defacing the properly affixed stamps, as required bylaw. The four first mentioned defendants are brewers at Morrisania, Moenchausen carries on a retall lager beer business contiguous to Hupfel’s establishment, while Henrich and Muller are bartenders, For some time past the authorities have beeu on the alert in order to detect the alleged frauds in the lager beer business, it having been generally supposed that @ large number of dealers were in the habit of removing the proper stamp from the spigot hole on the kegs and bringing it into use again when it, should have been defaced. Mor- risania Was 100ked upon with a suspicious eye, and @ successful raid was made yesterday. puty Marshals O’Crawley and Smith, together with a number of secret service men, proceeded to that locality and effected the arrest of the detendants. ‘The attair created great excitement, as the breweries were seized, and the accused conveyed before Com- misatoner Shields. It was said that on the road to Morrigania a cart cary; lager becr was searched, and a box coniaining @ number of stamps discovered, The following affidavits will more fully explain the nature of the proceedings:— Adolphus G. Haering, in his aMdavit, stated that he was a resident of Mott Haven, aud that he visited Huptel’s brewery, on Cave avenue, corner of Boston road, Westchester county; saw the bartender re- move the pani from spigot hote before tapping, and laid it on the top of the keg; saw two kegs tapped—one about two o’ciock, and the other about fourP. M. The stamps were removed from the spigot hole to the cenire of the head before tapping. Saw a keg brought in from the brewery without any stamp, aud it was tapped in the barroom. Subse- quently observed three kegs on tap, two, with stamp in centre of head and one without any “stamp; and at twenty minutes past four o'clock on the same day (August 8) he tapped another, but first removed the stamp from the spigot hole to the centre of the head. Ono August 22 be saw two kegs on tap, one with the stamp on the centre of the head, and then deponent saw kegs tapped as foliows:—One at twenty minutes before turee o’clock . M., one at five minutes afier three, two at twenty minutes after three, and one at twenty minutes before four o'clock. All of the kegs were tapped after the stainp hed been first removed from the spigot hole to the centre of the head. ‘The affidavit of John ‘tienke set forth that on the 15th of Angnst Tast he visiied Hupfel’s prewery. ‘There were two kegs of 1ager beer in the barroom on draught with tne stainps removed from the tap hole to the middie of the keg. Drank beer out of that keg and saw it sold to others. Saw a man taking empty kegs from the barroom with the stamps not de- atroyed; left them with a pile of empty kegs. When he went there again he found the empty kegs there ‘but the stamps had disappeared. Saw the man be- hind the bar taking the stamp from the tap hole and lay it on the top of the keg, then drive in the faucet and sell the beer, On the 224 of August ne went to the saloon and saw three lager beer kegs on draught in the barroom; on two of those kegs the stauips were romoved to the middie of the keg. On the third keg there was ho stamp. ‘The ailidavit of J. J. Nichois stated that he was a singer in the English Opera Troupe; that on the 7th of Angust, 1869, he visited the Hupiel brewery; saw na keg of beer brought into the barroom from the vault of the brewery without any stamp. On tie 16th of August saw twenty kegs of beer carried to the barroom. Before they were opened ‘ne stainps were removed and applied at the cenire of the keg wit! out destroying tne stamps. ‘The affidavit of Joseph M. Day set forth that he is an assistant operative of the Secret Service division, and that on the 22d of August jast he visited Hup- fel’s brewery, corner of Boston road and Carr ave- nue, Westcnester county, and that between the hours of two and four o'clock P. M, he observed one keg of beer tapped by the bartender without it being stamped; aiso at diferent intervals #ix kegs tapped by che same person. ‘The stamps ou these kega were in the centre of the head ot the kegs, and not on the spigot hole, as required by law. Two kegs were brought in (rom the brewery with the stamps afixed in the centre of the keg, and when the kegs were emptied they were placed in the cellar of the saloon With the stamps periectly whoie and uncancelled. The affidavit of Samuel Hopper alleged that he visited 5, Huptel’s brewery on the 7th uit,, between nine and ten o'clock P. M., and saw two kegs car- ried out from tne vauit of the brewery to the bat- room and taoped, and drank lager {froin voth kegs, neither of which were stamped. He visiied the brewery again on the 16th of August, saw kegs of lager beer carried into the barroom from the vauit of the brewery with stamps on the spigol.hole, The barkeeper toox the stamps off and put them on the ceutre of the keg aud tuen drove the faucet. They were carried back to tie vault when empiy with the stamps und ‘oyed, Veponent went into the vault and counted thirty-seven kegs Which were empty and Without stamps, since they had been previously removed. J. 1. det’ Omo deposed that he was an officer of the Treasury Denariiment; visited Hupfel’s brewery, and saw a keg of beer carried trom the brewery without & stamp, aud tapped im the barroom at pine A. M.; on subsequeat occasions saw kegs witht stamps in the centre of the newi aml others without stainps. ‘The affidavits of J. E. Stevens, Hugo H.

Those copies, it was represented, were made on photographic cards. Tunbridge was taken before Commissioner Shields, but he waived an examination. He was then held under $1,000 to appear on Monday. Yest Commissioner Shields issued a search Warrant st his establishment at 42 Liverty street, which was accordingly seized, Interesting developments are expected to-morrow. SUPREME COURT—SPECIAL TEAM. v Conflict of Authority. Between Judge Dowl- ing and Captain Petty. Before Judge Barnard. Witham H. Hart was brought before the Court yes- terday morning on a writ of habeas corpus when Captain Petty handed up a return to tne Court, in which it was atated that the prisoner was held be- ee Judge Dowling refused to investigate the charge. Mr. Howe (on behalf of the prisoner! The cap tain Mages a wilful mistake when he says Justice Dowling refused to investigate it, This prisoner incurred a debt. He was arrested ana imprisoned in the Fifth ward station house and detained over night, and neVer brought to a police court. Upon the statement of the case Judge Dowling said that Captain Petty had committed a error in making the arrest, and refused to take any steps in consequence of the man having out any authority. He had incurred simply @ civil contract debt; and tf this thing 1s permitted I don’t know what powers the police will assume next. Judge Dowling saw me and told me that the reason he refused to entertaim the matter was because no offence had been committed and that the man was illegally arrested, Judge Barnard—There don’t seem to be anything ainst him, or else Judge Dowling would Rave held im. Captain Petty—The question ia whether when an Arrest is made and the prisoner brought before Judge Dowling, he is not bound either to discharge him if there be no legal charge against him, or else commit him if the facts of the case warrant it. He Toust be discharged by some police magistrate or some judge, Judge Barnard—A police magistrate or, indeed, any citizen bas @ right to arrest a person when found in the commission of a misdemeanor. No person has a right to arrest another uniess he has @ warrant based on a proper complaint, This man must, therefore, be discharged. COURT OF GENERAL SESSIONS, Vommencement of the September Term.

The publication of these tests in the press has had a beneficial effect in freeing the mar- ket of the spurious article, and recent tests show that the quality of oils now sold are of a higher standard, While these examinations of oils have been pro- gressing the officers of the Board, under the direc- tion of Dr. Harris, Sanitary Superintendent, have been quietly investigating the subject of milk trymen who had been feeced by cheep jewelry dealers while attempting to get fortunes for almos' a ; but even they were few and far between, and, all told, $481 was the sum total of the losses complained of, and which, by direction of Marshal Tooker, wha refunded. During the week $320 were collected for license fees and fines, and 128 licenses were issued, as follows:—Junk shop, 1; junk carts, 7; express wagons, 5; venders, 29; drivers, transfers, 2; puolic carts, 38; porters, Tue Late F. 1.

RING. Prize Fight im Connecticut—Battle Between | Patsey Sheppard and Jim Murphy—Short, | THE PRIZE Sharp and Decisive”—Sheppard the Victor. NEW HAVEN, Sept. 4, 1869. A very pretty /Ittle exhibition of muscular sclence was made on the green sward of a fleld a few miles east of this city at an early hour this morning. It | was @ very pleasant morning, clear, cool and tn- vigorating, and the gentlemen who gathered to see | “the best man win" were as peaceably Inclined as need be. On the road, a quarter of a mile from the battle ground, we found = Jim} Murphy already up ana ready to salute his fiends as they passed. He wore an English jockey cap, | thited just a trifle over the left ear; pants tucked within his boots and a rough overcoat, Hig gait, as | he moved after the carriage from which he was ob- | served, was of that swaggering sort which might well be put on by a doubtful man at the opening of such a contest. A little nearer the ground we met the other nero of the day, Patsey Sneppard, looking as bright, fresh and unconcerned as if he had come to witness rather than win @ game tn Fistiana. . | THR RING was pitched on a level meadow plat, on the east side of which the ground rose in @ sharp hill, perhaps fifty feet igh; there was also @ gradual elevation to the westward, and the throng which assembled around the scene were afforded an excellent oppor: tunity to see all there waa of the thing. THE MEN could hardly be said to be matched. {t was an off- handed affair for $250. The actual weight of Patsey was reported to be 139 pounds, and that of Murphy 123; but Sheppard sald he had not been over tne acales for weeks and didn’t know his own weight, and thought the talk of the other side “just lugs.” Patsoy Sheppard ts no novice tn the ring. He } shook hands, and in this fight, we will here mention, weat down voluntarily or otherwise at every round. Going down 1s hi at forte and he is master of the dodge. His hitting accurate, tolerably well aimed, but rather sudden, he being too willing to go to earth, This style served him dnely, keeping him from pun- isliment antil near the close of the fight.
