How the Sappho Was Manned and Sailed. By special cable telegram from LonJowt we have the following report of the state of feeling which ex- ists in Kngiand relative to the result of the yacht rave contesis between the Cambria and Sappho;— What the English Prose and British Yachtmen Say. LONDON, May 19—A, M. The English press accepts the news of the final de- feat of the “orack” Boglish yacht, the Cambria, in the three races—races of Mr, Asiabury’s own selec- Hon as fo course and terms and so forth—with an tll grace. The British newspapers are just now claim- img that the few tacks which were made in shore on the first side of the triangle, where the Campria, alded py the cheating tide, managea to keep just ahead of the Sappho, almost as a victory, and thelr writers are endeavoring, meaniy, to disparage the triumph of the American veasel. ‘The Engiish papers claim that the Sappho sailed with an English captain on board. ‘This assertion 1s an ungenerous misrepresentation. The crew of the Sappho consisted of a portion of the hands serving on board the American yacht Dauntless, made up of sailors of all nationalities. Captatn Fish, of the Sappho, directed everything, gave every order, solely controtied the trim aud the manceuvre and manage- ment of everything. The Enguish yaechtmen, on the contrary, as dis- tinguished from the newspaper writers and others, acknowledge the uefeat ol the Cambria gracefully. Press Says. LONDON, May 19, 1870, The London Times has an article on the yacht race, At says:—“There 18 no schooner in England, probably, that can sail with the American yacht Sappho, which, throughout the match, was handled by an English captain and a crew under his per- sonal atrection.’’ The London News of this morning expiains that the telegram published on Tuesday by the Central Press Association announcing the award of the prize to the Sappho was premature. It was late yesterday afternoon when the Sappho was finally pronounced the winner, The judges arrived at this conelusion from the Cambr! having disregarded the official instructions reguiating the race, but which were faithfully obeyed by the Sappho, A MODEL FINANCIER. What the Lona The Yourg Gentleman Who Mudo a Fortune Suddeniy and Went Away with Mi y How He Came Back from Parts Unknown and was “icbbled Up”=—More to Come. It will be remembered by the readers of the HERALD that Wall street, on the 11th of last Decem- ber, was thrown into a fearful state of excitement over the discovery that heavy forgeries on the Man- hattan Bank had been unearthed, and that a num- ber of brokers had been victimized out of large amounts. The facts were that five $1,000 bonds of the New York State Bounty loan—sevens of 1870 and sevens of 1877—were purchased from the Manhattan Bank, who are agents of the State, by one T, H. Pratt, some time since, and that while they were in his possession the figures were altcred from $1,000 to $10,000, and tne name “W, E. Grey” filled in in lien of the name of the original holder on. each bond by some person at present unknown, The broker holding these bonds took them to a city bank for the purpose of leaving them on deposit as collateral security for @ loan. The negotiation with the bank was completed, and the money was ready to be paid over, when the cashier of the institution thought he would step over to the Manhattan Bank and ascertain if all was right, Although the forgeries were well executed Mr. Elder, the cashier of the Manhattan, at once de- tected them and refused to recognize the bonds ar all. After this discovery was made other parties holding bounty bonds ascertained that they had been victimized in @ similar manner, having taken forged bonds a4 collateral security for moncy loaned. The entire amount of the figures footed up abont $180,000. The man Grey, it will be remembered, made his escape, as did Pratt. They were, bowever, indicted by the Grand Jury, through the efforis of Superin- tendent Jourdan and Captain Ke's0, who, meanwiilie, kept their eyes open and their mouths shut, and began quietly to work up the case. Crey and Pratt were of that kind of ill-mannered scamps who, after doing a dishonest trick, make themselves scarce without even deigning to send a letter with their adtiress in it to the proper authorities, and so tne police had to get a clue to the whereabouts of the fellows the best way they could, Now, a clue to f AN oat THIEY hangin {s not always an ei ing to gob pold of, parttcu- lnriy wien the Thiet’ dopsit take iy. Superinten- dent Jourdan and Captain Kelso, however, are not men to lie down and go to sleep Sbecause a job tiey happen to have on hand is a hardone, On the con- trary, they consulted together over the matter and deciced upon @ plan of action, but what that plan was nobody but themselves know. Suitice it to say that it may yet end ina RAND TRANSPORMATION SCENE, with Mr. sate making an appearance at Sing Sing witit a beautifully checkered shirt on and ol his victims in 9 state of ecstatic bliss in Wall street. So far the plan has been developed in one of its phases, and Mr. Pratt is the individual who has seen fit, unwillingly of course, to illustrate at least its excellence. How it was known that he had been to Mexico and squandered his money and then had to come pack to a city where &@ penniless man can live on less food than in any other place inthe worid is not yet matter of hise tory. Atall events itis known that detectives Mu- Cord and Wooldridge strolled up Second avenue late last evening, just for A PLEASANT LITTLE WALK, you know, without in the least thinking about busi- ness—not the least. Somehow or another they be- came very much interested in a certain house in East ‘Thirteenth street, and ap- loth to leave its immediate vicin- peared ity, once they haa got into ft. After they had smoked their cigars down to an extreme Grant butt and had ta!ked each otter dry the front door of the house opened and @ young man tripped gayly down the steps. He was a man of slight though well knit frame, rather dark-complexioned, and wore whiskers about dis face that had evidently had a hard ume of it in finding their way out to a respectabie thickness, MecOord and Wooldriage, on seeing him, gave each other a poxe In the ribs, as much as to say, “That's the gentiemau,” and walked briskly efter the in- dividual, who, a5 soon as he had left the house, began to make rapid tracks for Fourth aye- nue, The detectives came up with bim and after taking him gently by theshoulder told him taat he wa§, like Brooks, “wanted”’—in fact, wanted very much indced. ‘The individnal was Pratt, pat he denied himeelf, and would, no doubt, have spent a few hours on the spot m a iengthy argument to prove that he was not BY LONG ODDS THE SON OF HIS FATHER, had hot McCord and Wooidridge beev practical men.. They cut his protestations short by giving him @ litte hint as to what Wall strect could say abont him, and then he became as Close-mouthed as @ mad oyster. Captain Kelso received him on his arrival at head- quarters with ail that gracious courtesy for whtoh be Js particularly distinguished, and Mr. Pratt, friend of Mr. W. &. Grey and other people’s moncy, Was a3 a matter of official course locked up in @ neat Iittie room for a nienvs quiet repose, Yesterday forenoon he was taken to the General Sessians and recommitted to headquarters to await “events.”? Mr. Pratt does not seem willing to give an account of himself nor his tilustrious friend Mr. Grey. The Pelee may therefore be obiiged to get Mr. Grey and make him tell ali about Mr. Pratt. ‘Then Mr. Pratt and Mr, Grey will be of some account to the State Prison, ALLEGED SWINOLING, Michael Carrol, a horse dealer, living in Forty. second street, Was arrested last Wednesday on a warrant issued by Juatiee Fullen, of Morrisanta, Westeheaster county, tn which he is charged by John Wilkinson wif having defrauded him in the stm of seventy dollars. Its alleged that Carrol sold the complainant a horse, which he represented to be sound and able to draw 3,600 pounds’ weight, but on taking (he animal to his home, at Fordham, Wil- kiuson became painfully convinced that the nag had been “doctored” to the contines of the boneyard and was darely able to drag its enfeebled frame to the stable.
