8 FINANCIAL AND CONMERCHL, The Money Market Active and Unsetiled. THE RATES 7 PER CENT TO 1-16. A Drocping Speculation at the Stock Exchange, Decline of 4 Per Cent in Western Union Telegraph Shares. LAKE SHORE EXCEPTIONALLY STROWG. —_—+—_—_ A Fall in Consols in the London Markct. GOLD FIRM AND FEVERISH. ‘Advance in the 67’s in the English Market—De- cline in the Rates of Foreign Exchange—Ad- vance in Missouri Bonds—Railroad Earn- ings During the Month of January. WALL STREET, } Monpay, Feb, 10—6 P. M, On ’Change to-day cotton was quiet and easier for both “spot” and “future.” Flour was quiet, but firm. Wheat was neglected and nominally easier, while corn was in fair demand and firmer, COMPARISON OF THE IMPORTS, Zhe following shows the imports, exclusive of specie, at the port of New York for the week ending February 8, and since the beginning of the year:— i871. 1872, 1873, ++ $3,502,786 $4,283,568 $2,583,030 4,120,012 8,276,909 3,346,812 $7,622,708 $7,560,475 $5,292,842 Prev. reported, 25,588,906 81,934,617 36,398,267 Bince Jan. 1.......$33,211,704 $30,494,992 $42,328,499 THE FOREIGN MARKET. The London quotations show a sudden decline of XM per cent in consols, attributed, in the absence of other explanation, to the ramored intended ab- dication of the King of Spain, On the other hand French rentes in Paris have been steady at 56.05. United States bonds have been rather firmer, and ‘the 67’s improved \ per cept, as if from the cessa- tionof the competition of the new loan. Erte shares Were weak and declined one per cent to 52, but dosed a trifle better. MONEY ACTIVE. The money market was again active, but un- Settled in its working. The early business on call ‘was at 7, gold, to 7 per cent, currency, with the ad- aition of a commission of 1-64, During the interval between two and half-past two o’clock the rate hardened to 1-324 1-16 per cent, a good deal of bosiness being done at 1-16. Still later the market relaxed to 7 per cent currency, but before the close ef aealings on the sidewalk borrowers had to pay Wper cent, coin. Mercantile paper was neglected and almost nominal at8 10 per cent discount for prime names, FOKEIGN EXCHANGE LOWER. The gold speculation, by keeping the premium at its current altitude, has enabled a steady export of produce to Europe with the result of creating a larger supply of bills. Asa further consequence the foreign bankers have lowered their rates for foreign exchange, the market to-day having been weak. Prime sixty day sterling sold at 10914, The following are the reduced rates:—Sterling, sixty @ays commercial, 108% a@ 109; do., good to prime bankers’, 1094 a 10934; do., short sight, 11044 a 110%; Paris, sixty days, 528% a 625%; do., short sight, 619% a 518%; Prussian thalers, 71% a 7214; Ant- ‘werp, 525 a 620; Switzerland, 625 a 520; Hamburg, 053, a 9645; Amsterdam, 40% a 405; Frankfort, 407% 41%; Bremen, 9544 0 96%. GOLD FIRM—110% A 1144. The gold market was firm upon the special support given it by the clique whose particular ministration was required to off- set the effect of the weaker tone of the foreign exchanges. Early in the day the price advanced to 114%, but subsequently receded to 113%, the market at times being quite feverish. Eventually the decline in consols in London came to the help of the ‘bulls’? and enabled them to close the dealings with a pretty strong undertone atil4. The Sub-Treasury paid out $245,000 on ac- count of interest, and $400 on account of redeemed five-twenties. The course of the market is shown fm the table 10 pt -14 2PM. lay 38 P.M, 07 P.M. + 18% 4 P.M In the gold loan market the rates ranged from 1-82 per cent for carrying to flat for borrowing. The operations of the Gold Exchange Bank were as follows :— Gold cleared... Gold balances.. Currency balances. GOVERNMENTS ULL. The government list was firm, but exceedingly dull, the entire recorded transactions at the three boards amounting to the trifle of $13,000. The new fives were lower and altogether nominal.

STOCKS HEAVY AND LOWER, The stock market was heavy in its general fea- tures and drooped to a lower average of prices, but without a display of what could be called ac- tive weakness. The bullish element seemed to have lost courage on account of the incomplete success Of the Syndicate, and suffered the market to go by default, especially as the condition of the money Market was not calculated to inspire the Speculation fora rise, The ono single exception to the lower tendency of prices was afforded in the case of Lake Shore, which advanced about one per cent and retained pretty nearly all of its improve- ment to the close, its strength being referable in the first place to A NEW POOL speculation, and in the second, to the favorable showing of earnings during the late month of January, when railroad business throughout the West suffered so many extraordinary drawbacks from the remarkable snow storms of that very win- try month, The several bituminous coal mining stocks were also firm on the growing demand for the products of their corporations following the scareity of and advance in coal in England. The wider knowledge of the action of the Executive Committee of the Western Union Telegraph Company in ratifying the sale of the 16,000 shares disposed of last week by order of the directors caused further weakness tn the stock, the price of which went off, on extreme quota- tions, from 91 to 87%. The prospect of a final pas- sage of the bill to withhold the money earned by the UNION PACIFIO Railroad for services rendered the government as long as the interest on the second mortgage re- mains unpaid caused adecline in Union Pacific shares to 3334, although the denial of a contempo- Taneous rumor that this action on the part of the government would cause the company to default upon the March coupons of the income bonds was followed by a reaction to 35 a 34%. Pacific Mail continued weak and went below 74, although it Was explained that the steamer Henry Chauncey had left Aspinwallon anew time schedule, and Was not due until the 12th or 13tn inst, Erie, which was inclined to buoyancy in this market hy reason ofarumor that the expected dividend would be declared at a meeting of the directors to-morrow, was dragged down by the decline in the London market, and fluctuated between 66%, and 6534, closing at 6634, HIGHEST AND LOWEST PRICES, The following table shows the highest and lowest prices of the principal stocks during the day :— Highest, Lowest, New York Central. 10414 Lake Shore Wabash..

WITH GOOD CONNECTIONS IN [| THE COURTS. THE JUMEL ESTATE CASE.. The Long Suit Coming to a Close at Last Summing Up for the Defendant-—Ar- gument To Be Continued To-Day. The Rosenzweig Case in the General Sessions. THE JUMEL ESTATE CASE. The Suit of Bowen vs. Chase—The RB butting Testimony for the Plainti Closed—Summing Up of Mr. J. C. Carter for the Defendant. The hearing of the case of George W. Bowen vs. Nelson Chase was resumed yesterday in the United States Circuit Court, before Judge Shipman ant. the special jury. Mr. Hoar, Mr, Chatfield, Mr. Chauncey Shaffer and Mr. Sawyer appeared as counsel for tne plain- tiff, and Mr. Charles O’Conor and Mr. J. C. Carter for the defendant, ; DEPOSITION OF GIDEON J. TUCKER. Mr. Carter continued to read to the jury tho cross-examination of Gideon J. Tucker in his depo- sition, as taken in the progress of the present trial. Tucker states that he had an interview with Joseph Perry at a house im Brooktyn, and was: brought to him by a detective named Wella, Tucker wanted, he said, to have Wells keep an eye on Perry, 80 that he might have the latter arrested: and prosecuted for perjury. The reason he did not have Perry arrested immediately after the commis-- sion of the perjury was that the perjury was com- mitted in Rhode Island. TESTIMONY OF COMMISSIONER SHIELDS. Mr. John A. Shields, United States Commissioner,” deposed that on April 25, 1872, Mr. Tucker swore an affidavit before him; on that occasion Mr. Shields, Mr. Tucker and My. Shaffer went before Judge Davis, the United States District Attor- ney, and after some conversation it was agreed among them that, as the oifence (the perjury by Perry) had been committed in Providence, the warrant for his arrest should have been tssuet there; Judge Davis said that that was the proper’ course, and he (Mr. Shields) had a doubt ‘t he: had a right to issue the warrant; since then no per- son had spoken to him on the matter until day or” two ago, when Mr. Shaiter asked him to bring the: affidavit into Court. TESTIMONY OF WILLIAM H, ORYSTAL. William H. Crystal, clerk in the Tax Office of this city, deposed that the tax on the Jumel property’ for 1872 had not been paid, DEEDS PUT IN RVIDENCE. Counsel for plaintiff put in evidence a deed. dated July 29, 1865, from Eliza B. Tranckell and: others to Nelson Chase. The plaintiff here rested his case, After some discuss'on it was agreed on both sides that two counsel should address the j for each, paity, Mr. J. 0. Carter to begin for the defendant, and that gentleman to be followed by one of the counsel for plaintiff, who will be succeeded by Mr. O’Conor for defendant, leaving the last word to, Mr. Hoar for platntit. Judge Shipman said that, in view of the multi- plicity of matters involved in the evidence, he would not curtail counsel as to the time they should consume in summing up. SUMMING UP BY MR. J. C. CARTER FOR THE DEFEND- ANT. After the recess, at two o'clock, Mr. J. C, Carter’ proceeded to sum up the case on behalf of the de« fendant. He said he would be as brief as the na- ture of the case tet and he had no doubt the patience which the jury had exhibited all along’ would be extended to him in his argument. Ho would have to go into a variety of details, He- would have to show the circumstances under which this case arose. Madame Jumel was a woman fond of ostentation. She married Aaron » and afterwards obtained a divorce from him, | This: gave her great notoricty. She was introduced into society in France a8 the widow of Aaron Burr, Vice President of the United States, At. the time she made the will of 1863 there was not a whisper that she ever had _ an illegitimate son, an@ it was then well known that the children of Mr. Chase were her legitimate heirs. Notwithstanding that fact Madame made a will cutting off the Chases: from the inheritance. A suit was instituted to- break the will, and Messrs. Martin and Smith made inquiries as to whether there had been econe nearer to Madame in relationship than the BF but they could find none, Mr. Devine, of that firm,. as early a8 1866, went to Providence and called upon persons of the name of Bowen to come for- ward and state if tuey were related to Betsy Bowen, afterwards Madame Jumel. There were Bowens in the front of lim, Bowens at the leit of him, Bowens at the right of him. Mr. Devine wext,, at the suggestion of a Mr Potter, to r. GW. Bowen, but the Jatter he. knew nothing of Betsey Bowen, and as to me Jumel he satd he knew nothing of her except what he saw inthe papers and by occasionally her at Saratoga. Mr. Jamel bought this property in: 1810 or 1812. This was Mr. Jumel’s property,. which he subsequently vetiled upon Madamo Jumel, and {tt was aiterwards to vest in Mary Jumel, the adopted child of the Jumeis, and her heirs, The nominal defendant in case was Mr. Notson Chase, but he and his two children held this property, and they were interested in this litigation. jounsel then gave a history of the Bowen family. He alluded to the evidence of Mra,’ ‘Trauckell, who, he said, pioduses the commisstor: of Jonathan Clarke, and thus connected Mra. Maria. Jones as a member of this family. At this point of the learned gentieman’s argument hé deaitat lengtn: in comments upon old records produced in the case. He contended that those records made out: a clear case of relationship between Madame. and Mrs. Maria Jones. In the year 1804, peer Bowen, who was a woman of it at tractions, married Stephen Jumel and went to re- side with bim at 28 Whitehall street remaining there until 1810 or 1811, when they went to reside atthe Mansion, Mary Jumel was li with the Jumels as their adopted daughter, an 6 married Mr. Chase in 1832, According to all the evidence they had in the case, it was known that the lady, who was called Mary Jumel, was the danghter Maria Jones by a husband prior to her marriage with William Jones. The probability was Maria Jones had previcusly married some wWorthiess fel- low, who had deserted her, and that Mary Jumek was a daughter of that marriage, Mary Jumet! had been educated abroad by the Jumels, who had no- children of their own, and throughout the whole trial it was clear that the intention of the Jameis: was to make Mary Jumel (Mrs. Chase) their heir. Eventually the property was conve: to one Michael Workmaster in 1527, to be held in trast for certain uses and purposes to be executed by Mad- ame Jumel. But, in 1828, when Mr, Jumel returned: from France, another deed of appointment, under the previous trusts, was made, vestin, prop- erty in Mary Jumel and her heirs after death of the Jnmels. But Madame Jumel had reserved to herself the power of clanging that by Rer will. Had-+ Mary Jumel been living at the time | of Madame Jumet’s death she would have been entitied under (\..se deeds to inherit the property. It was perfectly clear, from all the facts and sur- roundings of the case, that the flxed intention of the Jumeis was to leave the inheritance of the estate to Mary Jumel. Counsel adverted to tho will drawn by Madame Jumel in 1846, contending that that will was @ farther indtcation of the inten- tion of the Jumels te confer the estate upon Mary,. for whom they had always expressed the greatest affection, The settiement entered into upon the occasion of Miss Eliza Jumel Chase's union with Mr, Paul R. G. Perry made that inven- tion still more clear, But it was evident that four. or five years before Madame’s death she was in- sane, and had been, when in that state, in the habit. of pouring out abuse against Wm, 0! Rvidence. was given on the part of the plaintiff to show that Madame had expressed hersell in terms. oh names to Mr. Chase and the members of his fanny TRC detendant never denied that, but when Jumei so expressed hers was she ye es ance to her real sentiments? Was she ir not a person Whose reason was unsettled and whose judgement had been dethroned? It had been sisted on the other side that Madame Jamel had been brought up been | a a An e and not evinced great purity of ilfe. Now, answe to that he would say, let them look at the way in which Mary Jamel had been brought up by Madame. Jumel, Mary Jumel’s letters breathed the most pure aud tender sentiments, and, ane ft le, 1 teratnre was not always of the highest invariably exhibited purity of thought amd kind. ness of disposition, At this veage of the proceedings the Court ad-- ir, Carter wii. jJourned till this morning, when continue his argument.
