10 : JAY GOULD. Another Strange Chap- ter in Firie. A Proposed Motion to Vacate the Order of Arrest. ——_-— COUNSEL BARLOW’S STATEMENT. The “Gorner in Northwest” Noth- ing to Do with It. The Release of the Old Board Net Contirmed. THE ‘EX-PRESIDENT’S ANXIETY TO QUIT. A Million of Stocks for a Clan Bill of “Exemption. * 4 WHY J. G..CAN BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. S. L. M. Barlow, a director of the Erie Railway Company, having signified bis willingness to nwer pertinent questions relative to his knowl- edge of matters coming within the scope of the suit of the Erie Raitway Company against Jay Bould, Messrs. Field & Shearman, counsel for the tatter, prepared the questions. noted below, to which Mr, Bariow gave the corresponding replies, which are to be used with a view to che making of an affidavit in behalf of the defendant on a motion $o vacate the order of arrest. The main part of the testimony relates to the terms 0! surrender agreed upon in March in the negotiations between General Sickles and Jay Goud, Mr. Barlow claims that while General fiickies wae an authorized agent of the new Board of Directors the reiease given to the retiring Presi- gent was not absolute, but was to be confirmed by the new Board after the books had been eare- fully examined, and Mr, Gould's statement that he Kad not been guilty of any misappropriation of stocks er funds had been verified. The suit ayalnst ‘Mr. Gould bad been in contemplation two weeks before the “corner” im Chicago and Northwest, and the object of Mr. Watson In instituting it and eausing the arrest of tho defendant was to recover ‘what beionged to Erie and not to benefit any clique im Wallstreet, Tho bail xed upon did not appear exocasive and the witness did not suppose that ‘Shere would be apy delay in procuring it. The evi- Menoe is publiehed below in full, with the exception of a few questions which Mr. Bariow’s Information Mid not justify his answering :— Q Are you an officer of the Erie Railway Com- pany, and were you sueb on November 22, aud are ett) such omicer?

Were thore releases a subject of conversation in the Board or among directors or counsel of the company? A. They were spoken of by the connsel of the company in the presence of Mr. Watson; in the draft affidavit of Mr. Watson I alluded to them and characterized them in genera) terms as fraudu- jent and void; but Messrs. O’Conor and Porter ad- vised that nomotice of them should be made by Mr. Watson, ag they were wholly immaterial, un- necessary and unusual, except 10 reply, in case wach releases should be set up. Q.

Gouid and General Sickles, and if so, frum whom aid you get the in- formation and what was the arrangement? A. I know nothing of any arrangement; Mr. Gould has told me his version of it, but this was clrectly in opposition to what | was told by neral Sickles and also in opposition to Genera) Sickles’ course in compelling Gould w refund a large sum in money and in stock to the company, so that | know nothii ny writing ever drawn expressing the ngement thus made; if 80, Where is that writ- ona give Its contents ? A. I know of no sach writing. Q. Did General Sickles ever give to you any paper which he injormed you contained any memorandum ofan arrangement between him and Mr. Gould ? A Not to my knowledge; he gave me a loose mem- orandum which Lunderetood contained the points asked for by Gould on March 12, but not what he assented to; and the first time leaw this paper was when he delivered it to me at my office, after April 1, and, { think, as late the 10th; I sealea it at bis request, marked it with the date, and think I must still have it, but, though I have looked diligentiy, | cannot find it; it may have been handed by me with other papers to the company, or it may be simply misiaid; but I am contideut that this memorandum was not intended to express et arrangement made by General Sickles, and bis own course immediately after March 12, and to the time of his depavture, during which he consulted counsel as to bringing a suit, not unlike the present, as 1 am informed and be- lieve, forbids such a construction; General Sickles saia that Gould would retire if relcased; 1 told him that thought this would be done by the new board by the confirmation of the release, which L understood had been executed by the old board; that I would favor such an arrangement as far preferable to a litigation pending, by which the busi- ness of the company would be seriously embar- Yassed; that I thought the new board would con- sider the future of the road more important than the pursuit, through the law, of the moneys Gould had spent; I asked him if he was authorized to speak for Mr. Gould; he said he was not, but would. see him; he returned again the same evening. with Henry N. Smith; I was asked to repeat to the latter what I had satd to Dr. Eldridge; I did so spe ery and as nearly as 1 coald; one or both then said that he or they thought a settlement could be made, and asked if the new Board would assent; I gaid tnat I had no power to bind the Board, but that I was entirely vontident the Board would ratify any agreement I should advise, and that I was wiiling to advise a confirmation of the old release; no agreement was cone to, but Mr. Smith agreed to meet me at the Erie office at nine o’clock the next morning to take me to Mr. Gould, when it was believed an ar- rangement would be perfected; this interview both parties said that they had seen Gould, and that they came with his sanction; [met Mr. Smith the next morning by appointment; he took me to Mr. Gould, and left me with him; f told Gouta briefly what had occurred between myself and Smith and Eldridge; he assented, and said substantially this, “You know, My. Barlow, that in the course of the admmmistration of such @ company a man (or a nee does many things which he believes to e necessary and proper and in the true interest of one, the suit, in which Martin & Smith ap- peared, Q. Was a discontinuance of any existing suit had with @ view to the prosecution of this suit, and if Srna Gid such discontinuance take place? A. I seked my partners to discontinne the suit then nding on the morning of November 22, 1872, before ie ning Of this one, and J believe it was so discontinued. TBE ORDER OF ARREST. 9. Dia you on that morning expect to get the order .of arrest on that day A. lexpected that my partpers and Judge Porter would obtain the grder.at ten o'clock. @ Did you make any, and, if #0, what effort td- ward it? A. 1 had arranged to give them the papers for that purpose, which were not all ready ‘until seven o'clock A, M. of that day, and they were to mect at the Hall at ten o'clock A. M. for that purpose. ‘ Q Were you at the Court House on that Jay, and, 3 #0, at what time, ana what were you there for ? A. J Was not, Q. Did you send any word or canse any commani- cation to be sent to any persons in Wall street or in Broad street, respecting the order of arrest ? If | #0, give their name and occupation, A. 1 did not, gave that lcommunicated the fact that lexpe have the order by hali-past ten A, M., and that ¢ would probably be arrested before eleveno'clock to | Mr. ‘travers; when the order did not come from the | Hall by cleven A.

Q Were you ut that time interested in the com- Dion stock Of the Chicago and Northwestern Rail- road Company, or in Erie Railway stock, and if #0, to what extent, and how loug had yeu been so in- terested? A. I hai no interest in any way in Northwest; was an owner of both common and preferred erie; purchased part six months or more | ogo, and the remainder about November 1; my ‘wtal interest was 2,100 shares of Evie. Q Had you at that time any racts outstand Ang ip respect to the said stocks, and if 80, what vontractsy A. None. q Were you interested in any contracts not made with yourself personally, but im respect to ‘the said stocks? A. None. Q Were your friends interested in the said @tock, Or aby contracts reepecting it, and if so, ive their names? A. 1 don't know anything on je subject. Q. Did you at any time have any interview with Henry N. Smith in respect to the said order of | arrest, or in respect to the stock of the said com- | pany, or in respect to any contracts for the said | Sock at any time between the ist and the 224 of No- vemuer last; and if so, When was your first inte: view with Mr. Smith, and how many such inter- wiews did you have’ A. 1 had repeated interviews ‘with Smith for nearly two weeks before the suit, Always in relation to the facts connected with Gouid’s accounts—none as to stocks, though I understood that he was interested as stock ene im various stocks, inc!uding Erie and jorthwest. @ Did you give any information in respect to | re. claim against Mr. Gould? A.1 had no claim; gaye me information as the counsel of the com: pany almost daily for two weeks, | Q. Were you shown the books of the firm of Smith, Gould, Martin & Co., or extracts from them, the company, but which may not be strictly legal; and, among other things, he alluded to large pay- ments in Albany; he said, “If I go out, I want to go free, and I shall be happier than I have been for years if Tecan give up the road to you and your as- sociates;”’ I said J thought there was no objection to this, and that I had so stated to Smith and Eldridge; he then said, pulling a slip of paper irom his pocket, that he was entitled to $1,000,c00 in stovk in a certain eR which did not belong to the Erie allway, but which came to him because ol his position as President; that now I was entitled to share in this, and that he would give me one-half; asked him the name of the stock and its value; he tokl me both facts, stating, as 1 now remember, that the stock was then worth seventy or seventy- two per cent; I said guietiy, “No, Mr. Gould;” he seemed to misunderstand my meaning, and at once said, “I will give you the whole; I said no, aud as Tam not only counsel of the company, and shal!, ag such, be compelled to advise as to Sny arrange: ment, but also, as a director, vote upon it, I prefer you should name your terms through some other person, and suggested my partner, Mr. McFarland; ag I was about to leave the room Iremembered that he had gone that morning to Albany, and I then told Gould this, and suggested General | Sickles; 12 at once left him and sent for General Sickies; when he came I briefly explained to him the position, and he at once went to Mr. Gould's room; while he was there Mz. Shearman—possibly Mr, lield also—expressed un- Willingness to treat with General Sickles, or a preference tor a negotiation with me; I answered Ireely that any arrangement made through General Sickles wouid be the same as if made with or through myself, and would, undoubtedly, meet with the sanction of the Board; beyond this I made no arrangement or had any agreement of any kind; General Sickles then met Mr. Gould and his coun- | sel: aiter a short interwiew he returned to the Board room and announced that Mr. Gould would resign; 1 asked him, in the presence of General Dix and others, eae what terms?” he replied, “Uneouditionally,”’ but qualified this by stating tha Mr. Gould desired to save a point of honor by re- signing rather than to be removed, and that his counsei also desired, for the same reason that the action of the Board of the previous day, by which they had been dismissed as counsel, should be changed, and that a question of costs had been agreed upon, which last fact has been called to my recoliection to-day; the action suggested by Gen- eral Sickles in their presence and in that of Mr. | Gould was then taken; so far as I then knew or be- lieved, no other arrangement or agreement had been made with Mr. Gould, and I amconfident that this was the belief of every member of the Erie Board then present; Woo! portion of the arrauge- ment made by General Sickles was not then acted upon, it was the duty of Mr. Gould or his counsel then to have explained the fact, and asked for such action as was deemed necessary; no further action having been suggested, the Boar of Directors had the right to assume that their whole duty through the commitment of General Sickles had been performed; | afterward learned, first from Mr. Gould and inp Cadel from Gen- eral Sickles, that @ farther understanding as to certain past matters and as toa release ot Mr. Gould had been assented to by him, partially on March 12 and partially on the lith or 16th of the same month, when Mr. Gould resigned as a director of the Erie Company; but Idid not understand from General Sickles that he had made or had un dertaken to make any agreement by which Mr. Gould would be absolved irom accountability for id ‘180, when for the first time’ A. I first saw ‘Ane books of tne firm about November 1 or 14; ain not certain as to.daie, THE EVIDENCE AND THE BAIL. Q. What effect did you think the ar ould would have upon the price or ma v1 the stock of the said Chicago and Northwestern | Ratiroad Company? A. 1 had no opinion as to its effect on Northwest; 1 believed that an earnest effort to collect the money due to the company from the defendaut would probably enhance the market value of Erie stock; but this had nothing ro with this suit in any way, either as to time or otherwise; in fact, Mr. Watson be- Ueved that the suit could have been begun many days before, but from day to day postponed it solely because he could not finish his accounts, and 4t was near y midnight on the 2ist that he was for the fret time able to swear to the wffidavit on whieb the order of wrrest was made.

Q. Did General Sickles ever give you any paper which you had reason to believe contained a mem- orandum of apy arrangement between him and Mr. Gould or the counsel tor Mr. Gould’ A, I have an- swered that as folly as | am able, pid you have any interview on the 11th or 12th of March last with “Edwin Eldridge and Henry N. Smith, or either of them, and tf so, state where and when all of such interviews took placey A. | met Mr. Eldridge at my house on the evening of March 11; he expressed great regret at the position of afairs at the Erie office; he said that Gould was advised that his was the legal Board and that of Dix was illegal; he asked if the matter couid not be settled. Q. Did you not at some such interview state to Mr. Eldridge or Mr, Smith that you did not care | how much Mr. Gould had stolen in the past—that tie only question was to gain security for the future’ A, Notin the words of the question, but, as stated above, that the future of the road was of | | more consequence than to attempt to recover money #iolen by Gould. Q. Did you not in some such inte your associates in the Board of Directors, as you claimed it to be then newly constituted? A. No; except as in 28, that I thonght or hed no doubt the Board would concur in apy setiement that J ad- vised, «, Did you not have one or more interviews on or aboot the 12th of March last with Mr d and jus counsel, in Which the terms of Mr. Gould's wilh.

A CONFIRMATION OF THE RELEASE CONDITIONAL, Q. Did 1 not, in one or more such imterviews with Mr. Gould or his counsel, expressly allude to that part of the Sickles and Mr, Go firmation of bis past releases, and pledge yourself alresh to have that part of the agreement carried out? A, Thave aiways said, both to Mr. Gould and to his counsel! that I thought that this confirmation could be obtained, and on the terms that J also stated that I would do what I proventy. could to secure this settlement; bat I told him and his counsel, not once, bul many times, that nothing iooking to a gettiement could be done ‘until Mr, Gouid’s aceounts with the company were fully made up; that Mr. Hodgskia, and afterward Mr. Watson, were actively employed in making up there accounts; that nothing could be hurried, be- cause everything depended on these accounts; that when they were made up, if they showed simply, a8 Mr. Gould claimed, that he was charge- abie only with errors of ju ent, with ‘improvi- dent oreven illega! expenditures, but expendi- tures made in what he supposed to be the interest of the company, that then, upon the reconveyance of certain stocks and property to the company, most of which were embraced in the then ending syit against Gould, I had no fount, that I could obtain the confirmation of the oid release, and that I would try to do 80; but I stated many times to his coun- and at least once to Mr. Gould in the presence bis connsel, that if, contrary to his representa- tions, it should be found that Ne had put into his own pocket large sums of money, 80 large that he ‘was hot prepared to pay ibe amount to the com- Any, That then no arrangement such as he claimed ad been made through General Sickles or any confirmation of the release could be obtained, and to this Mr. Gould made no objection, always claim- ing to me, in the most positive terms, that his accounts were full and accurate, that he owed the company nothing, that nothing could be dis- covered of the character indicated, as the fact was otherwise; I never assnimed or believed thata release could be obtained for actual frauds not known when the old release was given, unless reparation was made. Dia you not, in one or more of such inter- terviews, promise to obtain the opinion of counsel im favor ol the validity of such release and to re- port such opinion to the Board of Directors of the said company, together with the opinion of your- self to the same effect? A. It was suggested to Me that I should give an opinion as to the validity of the old release, and | said that I preferred taking the opinions of other older and abler coun- sel, which would have more weight with the Board; but this was upon the belief on my part, as stated above, that the only open questions, save those embraced in the suit then pending, were as to improvident or illegal expenditures, not thata release could be a bar to Gould’s prosecution for Brergualy) unknown frauds, but any action in this irection was postponed until Mr, Watson should have completed bis accounts, and no one’s opinion was taken, Q. Was not an assurance oi this kind one of the considerations upon which you induced Mr, Gould to secure for the benefit of the said company a re- sale to that company of about $3,000,000 of the con- solidated mor aeee bonds of that company at eighty per cent’ A, No. On the contrary, by the terms of that repurchase Mr. Gould provided for the con- tingency of a large judgment upon these old claims being finally recovered against him, by an express clause that in that event the amonht of the actual profit realized by the company on the resale of these bonds should be credited to him on such judgment, and thereby practically admitted the invalidity 0: the pretended release now set up, and the null.ty of the alleged agreement through Gen- eral Sickles, Q. Were you not informed, or had you any rea- son to belit when the said affidavit was drawn, that the purchase of 127,000 shares of stock by Mr. Gould, as therein set forth, was actually made some time in Noveinber, 1863, and not in August, 1809? A. Idid not know when these stocks were purchased, nor did [then or now consider that of any consequence; the charge is fraud in selling to the company at 67 stocks worth 28, which Gould then owned; if he had paid par for them it would have made no ditference; he made a speculation, lost and then attempted to throw the Joss on the company. ement between General = AMUSEMENTS. Stadt Theatre—German Oper Mr. John Koch, having found that German opera in Winter at his New Terrace Garden Theatre could not be made profitable, as even the most ardent admirers of this species of lyric art would Not brave the terrors of the Third avenue cars in Mid-winter, fell back in good order on the Stadt Theatre, and encamped there last night for the first time. It may be said that he has gone into Winter qnarters, and the veteran home of the stage of Fatherland is once more lighted up and its vast array of benches dusted and brightened for the reception of the Teutonic ¢tite, The company on which Mr. Koch relies for the stecess of his season is more remarkable for quality than quantity. There are two reliable, tried prime donne— Madame Lichtmay and Miss Clara Perl; a first class basso, Carl Speigier; a y baritone of considerable ability, Fritz de la Fon- taine, and a tenor di sorza, Mr. Horn, who has given much satisfaction in the rdles he has so far essayed in this country. The season opened last evening with Nicolai’s sparkling work, ‘The Merr: Wives of Windsor,” before an audience of no smail Magnitude, and good-natured to @ fault. Shak- | Speare dons strange habiliments when he appears in Teutonic form. “The Merry Wives, who on this occasion were represented by Madame Lichtmay and Miss Clara Perl, make Falstail (Mr. Speigier) the object of ridicule by a series of airs und duets, Proven, comic, but very un-Shakspearian. ‘he leading dle, Falstal, gives a fine opportunity for a basso to display his powers, and . Speigier made quite an efiect in the part last night. Mr, De la Fontaine did very well as Ford, but the rest of the cast was only passable. The prin- cipal feature of the season will be the revival of the immortal “Lohengrin” of Wagner, the grandest of all eperas. It willbe brought out about New Year's, with a strong cast, a very large chorus and an or- chestra of seventy pieces. The reproduction of this Opera will be an epoch in the history of music in this city, as the name of Wagner, thanks to Thomas’ orchestra, is as well known here as it is even at the Court of Munich, Chamber Magic. The second sorée of chamber music of Messrs, Mills & Damrosch was given in the piano ware- rooms of Messrs. Steinway last evening before a fall house. The programme was interesting, con- jist ad Raf’s sonata in G minor, opus 129, the second book of “Intermezzi,” by Schumann; Adagio, by Mozart, and trio, in E flat, opus 70, | Beethoven. The sonata is in one movement ior piano and violin, and is in the peculiar, labored style of Raff, clever, but not particularly interest- ing. Mr. Mills played the “intermezzi’’? superbly, With that clearness of style and nervous vigor that has placed him in the foremost ranks of American janists. Dr. Damrosch did full justice to Mozart's eautiful melody, but spoiled the effect by a very | Unwarrantable treatment of one of Chopin’s waltzes. But the trio was splendidiy delivered, An amateur tone, named Dennison, sang a couple of Ger- airs without elicitin; approval } partes taking the violoncello part, bari any mark from those present or without giving any evidence | | that he deserved it.
