THE DIVIDEND THAT SWELLED THE DEBT. ‘@n‘the resumption of the investigation of the affairs ofthe Erie Railway Company yesterday morning’all -@fthe committee were present and also Mr: 8, L. M. Barlow, counsel for the directors; Mr. William A. Beach, ceunsel for the stockholders, and Mr, Stick- “mey, counsel for the committee. The testimony ‘which was elicited from the witnesses during the forenoon was not of a very startling nature, put better and more complete achievements were ohoped for by the Senators. What are now most earnestly desired are the names of the legislators ‘who were influenced by the money which was used ‘for lobbying and other equally corrupt purposes. Mr. Watson, president of the company, was present ‘.@ering most of the session, and looked upon the .proceedings with a smiling, but at times rather disturbed countenance. ‘The frat witness was MB. SAMUEL D. BABCOCK, -@ director, who testified in relation to the declara- tion of the dividend. He said :—I was one of the four directors who opposed declaring a dividend and voted against it; I had no doubt of the cor- rectnesa of the financial statement made. by. the President, but could not agree te distribute among \the stockholders money which was needed for re- pairaot the road; the proceeds of the $10,000,000 -@envertible bonds were to have been devoted to -@enstruction; I don’t know that they were used to pay the dividend; I think, and I give my opinion ‘as & banker, that the commission paid Bischoffs- heim & Co. was excessive. The larger part -@f the Erie stock is held abroad and the reasen for declaring the dividend was to show the fereign holders of stock the good wesnit of the change in the directors, and the Ronest and economical management whieh the ‘Bew ones had initiated; I was opposed tothe divi- @end because I thought the net earnings should be + Used in liquidating the debt and for construction; 4 there had been no heavy debt I would have voted for the dividend ; I believe a coysiderable sum was spent for “construction ;” but Ldo not think that apything was charged to the construction account that did noi add to the permanent value of the , Property of the Erie Railway; 1 considered the Statement of the net earnings of the road @ver the signatures of the directors would Rave the same moral effect im strength- ening the BLOCK of the company as the declaration of a dividend, except in London, where such a large amount of the stock fs neld; 1 Delieve the directors had a legal right to declare the @ividend, but I considered that it would have been mauch better policy to have reduced the floating @ebt; it is perfectly right for a company, if it has @pent its net earnings in extending tracks or other permanent construction, to declare a dividend on the net earnings and pay it oul of tbe sale of new bends issued to cover the necessary expenditure; $his Would of course increase the indebtedness of | the company to the amount of the dividend paid; -' @ company which changed hands very often 3k consider that the prefits for the current time should be distributed among the stockholders or with equal propriety should be ‘ased in paying eff the floating debt of the cempany er for permanent improvement; the increased value of stock in the latter cases would indemnily the stockholders for the lack of a dividend; it was represented to me that the disgorgings of Gonid ‘were laid aside to pay the floating debt, and hence the earnings eould be devoted to paying a divi- end; I have no idea of the value that could be re- alized on the stocks which were restored to thre company. MR. 0. H. P. ARCHER ‘was recalled to be examined ip relation to the amount of his profits under the freight contract which he held. He read the following statement of his receipts and expenditures :— Recetpts from the Erie Railway Company for the. + $908,048 a Profits... $13,833 Mr. Archer declared emphatically that the con- tract was not profitable enough to suit him, and that he was anxious to relinquish it, In res) © a question by one of the committee he s: id not say on my HMrmer examination th: Peo ig this contract, but that I did not want - Lincoln—Would yeu be wiiling to make it over to the committee and let them remit on the ®ame terms that you have enjoyed?

He was then questioned by Mr. Stickney regard- {ng the voucher produced on the day before in the ; too of the Committee, and recognized his sig- jayore. He said :—I approved the expenditure, sup. it to be for legislative purposes; I don’t ow whe received the amounts, or what the smopnts set opposite “Delavan House and “Con- greve Hall” were for; I did approve them without aby knowledge of what the Popments were for, ex- cept upon the statements of .

KE. Chandler performed in connection with his name appearing upon one of the vouchers; Sickles said to me, “ tt ought I to charge for what I have done?” I said, “You ought to charge £50,000,” and he aaid, “I think too; when I was in London I was told by hoffsheim & Co, that a large sum would be expended to produce @ change; they had heard fabulous accounts, of the 1ortunes made by persons who had control ofthe road at the time, and they wished to get their friends in; if the assistance rendered by Bigchoffsheim to the company was of a purely speculative nature, I don’t think Erie would bo entitled to recompense them.

President Watson was re-examined and ex- lained an error into which he had Jalen during tis previeus examination, by statmg that certain vouchers were signed by &@ man named Fenissy, when such was not the case. “LEGAL BXPENSES.’?

Secretary Richardson Said To Be About to Relieve ‘the Boys.” Fearful Stringency in the Money Market. oes See Bupture in the Gold Pool, but Another Poo] Form- ing—How Long Are Merchants To Be at the Mercy of Speculators }~One Per Cent a Day for Money—Can the Government Control the Price of Gold }—A Windfall of Ten Millions in Groenbacks Supposed To Be Coming—Two Small Fail- ures at the Stock Board. Brokers got up very bright and early yesterday morning and rushed down to their accustomed haunts. There was promise of a field day, and there were many very well informed persons who predicted a general smash up. The upward ten- dency of gold frightenea many who, under usual circumstances, might have been considered very easy-going, peaceably-disposed people. But, with all, there was a certain sort of feverish tendency to get excited, which boded no good either to the market or the general community. Parties met each other on street corners, and buttonholed each other very extensively to exchange views as to the state of things. There was a general inter- change of ideas, which, of course, left things pre- cisely in the position they had been before, but which, at all events, proved one fact—that there Was something out of the usua; way going on, something which everybody would have liked to be able to foretell, When the market opened gold went down, and continued to fam by eighths until it got just over into the sixteens, This Jooked from the beginning very bad for those who had been reported as hold- ing immense quantities of gold in their own inter- est but against the interest of the community in general. It was whispered around that the gold pool had unloaded apa that the members of it were sellfngeut as rapidly as they could, This may have been 60, but there was ANOTHER SIDE TO THE STORY, and whieh shows that if the original pool burst there was a number of other gentlemen who were quite willing to take the other pool's chances and eontinue the game. This theory obtains some confirmation from the fact that all the gold that was offerea was speedily bought up. It issaid, and the HERALD man has it from the best possible authority, that one firm yesterday bought in $20,000,000 of gold and held it. It was also said that Mr. Jay Gould, that great little man, 18 a silent partner in the firm which consummated this transaction. If this be true, and it no doubt is, Mr. Jay Gould must be at the bottem of this second pool, with the hope to send cot & great deal higher than it has yet been within the past few days. ‘Itis pretty certain that though fold did go down to some extent yesterday, and that some- body was hurt, the demand ior it was extensive and heavy. THE REASON OF GOLD'S ASCENDANCY. ‘The chief and most popular reason assigned for ‘the rise in gold is the excess of the imports over the exports. It required no very deep calculation to see that the tremendous imports would cause a proportionate demand for the precious metal. The question was with those who bought it up when they saw the demand coming, whether they would be strong enough to carry it. With imports trans- cending by millions the exports the use of gold becomes imperative, and it must be bought. Those who hold it under these circumstances ought to ve able to exact their own terms, and, to some extent, they have done so. But the demand usually falls a little toward the middie of the week, and it may have been allowed to fall slightly so. as to rise ail the higher as the demand increases for the depar- ture of the Saturday steamers for Europe. ‘These are the opinions of men on Wall street, who pre- tend to know, and have every opportunity of knowing, what they talk about. To these it seems | Most probable that gold will not fall below the low- est price paid yesterday, but that it will continue torise. Others who argue in the same strain still further add that so long as our railroads keep up the price of freights as they have lately been doing, the imports must continue to be greatly in excess of the exports. THE FARMERS OF THE WEST cannot afford to ship their produce East at the enormous prices which are demanded by the rail- | roads for ireights; and, in the meantime, not only they themselves sutfer, but the railroads and the eople suffer almost equally with them. The only class which is benefited are the bulls who, without conscience—a thing it seems ridic- ulous to look for nowadays—trade on the necessities of the public. This has come to be such @ usual kind of speculation that it is hardly looked upou any longer as sinful and wrong. The mer- chants, it is true, suffer severely; but, after ail, the real loss will react upon the people at last, who will have to buy the articles at an increased rate and pay their hard-earned money therefor. That is, uniess, as during tue war, societies be organized to resist the sale ol loreign importations; but this is, of course, too ridiculous to be seriously dis. cussed, | ‘The HERALD man saw a preminent financier in Wall street yesterday, and asked him his opinion about this gold matter which is setting so many people by the ears, ‘This gentleman said that in ie present state of affairs, with speculators able at | any moment to ruin honest men, there was no help for it and things nad to go on as they had gone. But this gentieman said he had A THEORY ABOUT GOLD GAMBLING. He added that he thought he knew of a way in which gold gambling might be stopped. “Suppose,” he said, “that the Custom House were to take this matter of gold into its hands. The government must always be stronger than mere | specalators, stronger than any clique, Gold, say, is | quoted at 118 to-day. Suppose the Sub-Treasury announces that it will sell gold at 1i4. Do you think for one moment that these speculators, who, atter all, are very few and in themseives weak, would attempt to control the street against the government?” | “But would not this be recognizing the principle that gold is the standard above greenbacks?’ “The principle was recognizedjfrom the day that | the government went back on its own legal tender | by making the duty on imports payable in gold. Here it made a distinciion between gold and | greenbacks, which was iatal to the government currency. But whether it would be recognizing anew principle or not, what would prevent the governiuent otfering goid in this manner always a It | would do the very thing that Congress has passed useless laws about—stop speculation in gold,”” This theory mav be taken for what it is worth, and gore as one of the evidences of insanity which pervade the gold market just at present. In the Gold Room yesterday the excitement was very intense during the morning. Then it was a mooted point as to whether the quotations were to be sent up to ridiculously hign prices or whether everybody was to be relieved by its falling down, It took THE DOWN TURN fortunately, and if everybody was not satisfied the majority was, at any rate. The dreaded storm had passed over tor a day and the morrow migit take care of itself, But this does not mean to say that pod hei mind is relieved. Far from it, ere ittle talked of during the afternoen amongst those who more particularly take an interest in the price of the yellow charmer, Still there was one thing about a block off which interested Wall street very intensely, and, in tact, the whole country.. This was the money market, which, as the day grew on, became more and mere stringent. In the early morning money could be got at one-eighth; but as the day advanced money got tighter and went to one-quarter, then to one- half, then still on five-eighths, and shortly before three o'clock Money was bought for a day at three- er cent, The HERALD man saw one gen- tleman who borrowed $10,000 at one per cent until to-morrow. to say that this interest is above and beyond the seven per cent allowed by law. ‘bere 18 a secret, of course, to this stringency in money, Two reasons are given for it. itis said on one hand that some ‘tail’ speculators have been bor- rowing money from the banks until there is really VERY LITTLE MONEY LEFT IN THE STREET, and brokers to cover their -contracts, which, of course, they must pay, are obliged to borrow money at these ruinous rates, That is to say, a gentleman with $100,000 could go into the street and get $750 for his money on the best of security and without the slightest trouble. On the other hand, it is said that the cause of the stringency is that the farmers who make their settlements throughout the country on April 1 have been draw- ing their money from the country banks and the country banks on their side have been drawin, upon New York for money. This depletes the street in most lameotable fashion, of course. There is no'doubt some truth in both these reasons given for the money stringency. This, of course, produces the most dire distress. Operations both among the brokers and among our merchants are compara- tively paralyzed by this state of affairs, and the only question asked is WHERE If THE REMEDY? ‘The universal answer is that the remedy should come from the new Secretary 0} he hag been at the beim iw overnmen!, Mr. Kichardson, the the Treasury, in the short time aebingion has suc It is almost unnecessary. we presume, } }!) ceeded m becoming very unpopular with the mer- cantile and‘Omane,.al classes, But it seems that at last he is preparing to make some inovement towards relieving the monetary pressure. During the and two days Mr. Richardson has reeetved two bushel baskets of eeerepee despatches from prominans, merchants and 88 Men asking in he most piteous manner for hefp. It is, no doubt, this which has caused him to make some MOVEMENT TOWARDS RELIEVING THE PRESSURE. Hie to sell $6,000,000 of gold during the said to be of ne’ avail, because he with- draws from circulation its equivalent im green- backs, ani that makes matters worse than ever. But yesterday afternoon a despatch was received from Washington saying, ia answer to a message asking for iniormation on this point, that Seere- tary Richardson had been closeted with Prevideut Grant for some hours in the aiternoon, and that the result of the coniabulation was that Secretary Richardson was about to issue immediately $10,000,000 m greenbacks to relieve the financial necet of the hour, An interview with the As sistant Treasurer at this at. GENERAL HILLHOUSR, brought a statement ‘rom that gentleman that this statement of the iasue of $10,000,000 was altogether @ mistake, and that no such transaction had been as yet ordered, ‘I'he $10,000,000 spoken of would not be a new isgue of greenbacksfrem the Treasury in Washington, but simply an issue of a sum tothat amount which has lain dormant in the Sub-Treas- ury in this city since it was sent some time since to Pay of the three per cent loan. ‘This was done without using the greenbacks spoken ef, and the money has not since been touched. The effect of any such action on Wallstreet would undoubtedly be to relieve the money pressure, but gold would be sent up still higher than it has been. In Wall street yesterday, in consequence o! the excitement, there were mouth ONLY ‘TWO PAILUERE, of small men too trivial to demand any extended notice. Curious to about one, however, is the fact that he had been suspended from the Stock Exchange for eighteen months, and only got | back to his seat two oe meth when this second blow came upon him, It is considered a very un- fortunate case. Outside of Wall street proper it is the general impression that the government ought to do some- thi i immediately put a stop to the reckless gambling which is going on there at present. The very existence of a great many of our most prominent merchants depends, it is said, on the government breaking up the unprincipled specu- lating, and all men outside oj these “rings” and gl are calling loudly upon the authorities in ‘ashington to do what lies in their power to re- lieve the community from the ravenous onslaughts of these financial sharks, ABT MATTERS, Mme. Hazard’s Latest Reception, At Mme. Hazard’s reception on Monday evening, at 52 University place, a large number of artists and literary characters were present. Music, reci- tations and tableans pleasantly varied the even- ing. Miss Benziger sang the “Slumber Song,” and played the transcription by Liszt, trom “Rigo- letto.” Mme. Hazard represented Rome in the tablean ef that name, and sang “L’Esperance,”” a composition of her own. Miss Ferretti interpreted “Casta Diva” and a romance by Mme. Hazard, entitled, ‘I am Going to Die.” Miss Proudioot rendered a scene from “Evadne” (the one which is supposed to take place in the Hall of Statues) and one from ‘London As- surance,” and, with the assistance of Mr. Pope, gave the quarrel scene from “The School for Scan- dal.” Mr. Pope read ‘Papa’s Grave” and “The Fire Fiend.’ Mr, Carrozzi played a Roman march and Mr, Goffrié a violin solo. The rooms were crowded and the statuary gallery was the theme of general comment. ‘The last two receptions will take place next Monday evening and next Monday evening week. “ADRIAN Property at Riverdale, Hudson River, and on Broadway, between the cities of New York and Yonkers, Comprising ‘Three Houses and 388 Lots, To be yold at auction THURSDAY, April 3, At the Exchange Salesroom.
