His Arraignment for Sentence in the United States Circuit Court—Some Points of Law To Be Judi- cially Considered and Sentence Deferred, THOSE TWEED WATER METERS Claim for Payment Again Pressed in the Courts—Further Verification of the Law's Delay.

Returns to Mandamus Writs—Trials, Qonviotions and Sentences in. the General Sessions, Areport was circulated yesterday that all the mecessary steps had been taken for the purpose of throwing the Erie Railway Company into bauk- Fuptcy. On making inquiry in the office of the clerk of the United States District Court it was ascertained from the officials in charge there that Do petition in bankruptcy had been fled against the company, and they were not aware of the ex- istence of any such document. Judge Blatchford stated, in reply to a reporter, that no application, either written or oral, iad been made to him on the subject, and that he had heard nothing what- ever in relation to any such petition. . The calendar of bankruptcy cases disposed of by Judge Blatchford on Tuesday and yesterday in the United States District Court was the heaviest known in that Court for some months past, There were forty-five cases of petition for adjudication of involuntary bankruptcy on the calendar, Twelve adjudications were made, six cases were ordered to be tried by jury, one case was dismissed and the Tomainder were adjourned over, Recorder Hackett, as will be seen by the report of the proceedings yesterday in the Court of General Sessions, is making rapid havoe upon the criminal calender. He is not only thinning out our City Prison at commendable speed, but he is giving to many what they would not otherwise get—an opportunity to spend the balance of the season in the country—and more too. They are still fighting in the Courts over the Na- Varo claim for $300,00) tor water meters made for the city during Tweed’s administration of the De- partment of Public Works. The case has been set down lor a final hearing and adjudication on next Friday week. It has been progressing at a long metre rate for a long time, and has reached such a stage now that it will probably be soon dis- Posed of in short metre, THE ALLEGE SUB-TREASURY FRAUDS. George F, Dunning Brought Up for Sen- tence im the United States Circuit Court—Sentence Deferred and the Ac- cused Released on Bail. Judge Blatchford, in the absence of Judge Bene- dict, sat in the United States Circuit Court yester- day. The only case disposed of was that of George F. Dunning, indicted about three years ago for pre- sentinga false aud fraudulent paper at the Sub- Treasury of this city, with intent to defraud the government. The amount alleged to have been embezzled was about one thousand two hundred and forty-six dollars, At a recent term ou! the Court a demurrer to the indictment was argued and overruled, and the understanding then was that the defendant should weet guilty to the first count Of the indictment, which charged him with presenting a false and forged paper. lea of this character wasentered and yesterday the deiend- aut was called By for sentence, AMidavits of Isaac F. Smith, receiver of the Centra! City Bank; John H, Platt, receiver of the Stuyvesant City Bank; J. M. Floyd, chiet clerk of the Treasurer of the Assay Ollice; Herbert G. Torrey, Assayer of the Assay Office; ex-Collector Barney, General Buttertield, H. H. Dyke, General Howard and the Rev. Wayland Hoyt, ot Brooklyn, were read, all going to show that hith- erto Mr. #unning had borne an unexceptionable character, and tuat they did not believe he had in- tended todeiraud the government. Mr. Dunning's affidavit was also read. It stated that he had entered the Assay Office in 1844 in Philadetphia; that $244,000,000 of gold and silver had passe through his hands; that not a cent of that money had been dishovestly used by him; but that, having become embairassed, he presented the voucher in question, and had been making efforts to recoup the government in the sum which it was alleged he hud embezzled, Juage Blatch.ord made some brief remarks upon the case, stating that, inasmuch as the count upon which the deiendant’ had pleaded guilty did nq allege that he presented the paper at the Sub- Treasury with the intent to detraud the govern- ment, he did not believe he had power to sentence him under the act of 1866, The only other act that might apply to the case was the act of 1823, and he was not periectly sure whether under that act it was within his power to impose the sentence. He would, however, conier with Judge Benedict, Who had ‘heard the arguments in this case, and the determination of the Court would be made known at a tuture date, Mr. Dunning remains ont on bat Pat ‘ourt Was then adjourned to the 16th of Sep- mi NAVARO’S WATER METERS, One of the Legacies of the Tweed Re-~ gime—A Chapter of Delays, but with Final Reaching of the Beginning of the End. They seem to be making long metre of Navaro's water meters. These meters were made for the city under the Tweed régime, and the snug sum of $300,000 is sought in payment for the same from the city treasury. The case, for several months past, has been so freqnently before the Courts that it has got to be an old story. The latest phase, as re- ported in yesterday’s HeRaLp, was Mr. Carter, Counsel for the Corporation, losing his papers, and on this account the hearing in the case was ad- journed over a day. Pursuant to this adjournment tie case came up again yestera in Supreme Court, Chambers, before Judge Prat It was to be argued ona motion made on behalt of the Ccomp- troller to quash an alvernative writ of mandamus, Issued against the latter, to enforce payment of the claim or show cause why the same should not be paid, Mr, Carter announced that he had not yet wucceeded in finding his lost papers and he asked on this account a (urther adjournment. Strenuous aS mgs was made to the proposed adjournment by Mr. A. K, Lawrence, Counsel for Mr. Navaro. He recited at length the proceedings already had in the case, since the proceedings Were instituted in Februay last there had been, he declared, frequent adjournments at the instance ol the Comptroiler, when finally the case came peremptorily to a hearing on the 8d of June, Again there had been postponements, and all, ex- cept on one occasion, at the instance of the Comp. troller. He insisted that all this was trifing, not only with Mr. Navaro, but with the Court. He asked that the argument be proceeded with at once. Mr. Navaro had expended nearly half a million dollars in the matter, and while these delays might be fun Kms Comptroiler they were death to the claim- wnt. Mr Carter still protestea With the argument. He required further time to prepare a briel, and, moreover, it was periectly clear to his mind that this mandamus could not stand, and if it could not the Comptrolier should not be compelled to go into the tacts, Mr. Lawrence read in reply @ portion of ‘an opinion rendered in the Supreme Court, General Term, in which was ailirmed the delivery o: the meters by Mr, Navaro in good’ taith, and the duty of the Commissioner of Pub: lic Works to certify thereto declared, the mandamus could not stand this ‘was, he insisted, the stronger reason why the argument should proceed: at once, and thus effect a speedy disposal of the case, MWe apprehended, however, that the facts would show au altogetuer diferent conclusion. Mr. Carter still insisting upon tha necessity of delay, Judge Pratt suggested that for the argu- ment of this motion alone delay was not necessar, t.at he was inclined to make an order that if an adjournment were granted it would be on condition that this motion be submitted to the Court on euch adjourned day simaltuucoualy with the return against proceeding to the sult, and for such purpose Would grant an adjournment until the 15th instant, Mr. Lawrence suggested that Mr. Carter with- draw this motion and take until the 14th instant to make his return. Mr. Carter, alter some reflection, said he thought the proposition of Mr. Lawrence not an unreason- able one, and assented thereto, ‘The case was accordingly adjourned till the day named, when the return to the writ will be put in on behalf of the Comptrolier, BUSINESS IN THE OTHER COURTS. SUPREME COURT—CHAMBERS. Buying Up Custom House Claims. Before Judge Pratt. A motion was made in this Court yesterday to vacate an injunction in the case of Isaac K. De- Voe against David R. Nutter. The aMidavit of the Plaintiff, on which the injunction was granted, set forth that Nutter having one- half interest in various claims against the Collector of the Port, sojd the plaintii® one-half of his inverest, and that he hag since recovered a Claim, of which piainti’s share is about $1,600 gold dnd $450 curreney, whicu the deiendant has leposited with private bankers, The affidavit also deciares the delendunt insoivent. The injunction preven s bim irom withdrawing the money, The defeudant’s counsel, in answer, denied on ati- davit that the detendant was insolvent, and said that the plaintuf at first agreed to pay $250 for this share, but alterwards, alter advancing only $85, got back his money and re- scinded the agreement; that thereupon the defendant made a similar arrangement with Mr, 4B, F. Mudgett, and now was bound to give that gentleman one-nali of his recovery, and if he had to give tue ather to Mr, Devoe nothing would be jeit to the de.endant. Besides, this, it was alleged, was @ mere deposit with his bankers, and not money in the bands ofa third party, and that the injunction tied up $7,000 on a mere claim ior $2,000, Counsel Jor plaintiff asked leave to answer the new matter, and the Court, modiying the injuction so as uniy to cover the amount claimed, granted such leave, The Mandamus Cases of Sheriff Brennan and Mr. Johnson. In the proceedings by Charles Johnson and others to compel the Comptroller to pay $27,000 for the rent of the Ninth Kegiment Armory, and by Sheriff Brennan to compel the same oMeer to pay $52,000, nine wonths’ fees, in whica writs of alternative mandamus Were yranted, and to which, on Tues- day, the Compvroiler made unsworn returns, Judge Pratt decided yesterday that it was @ matter ot dis- cretion in the Court tu require that the returns ba made under oath, He accordingiy ordered that the returns be verified by the Comptroller in that man- her, or that the same be stricken out, SUPERIOR COURI—SPECIAL TERM.

The Strike of the City Railroad Black- smiths. The first case tried by the jury yesterday in this Court was an indictment preierred against James Fitzgerald for an assault with intent to kill Chris- ostomus Kuss on the 7th of July at the horseshoe- ing department of the Fourth Avenue Railroad Com- pany, in Last Thirty-third street. From the evi- dence adduced it appeared that the accused was a blacksmith by trade, and on the afternoon in ques- tion applied to Kuss for employment. He referred him to tae foreman, and without any provocation or excuse Fitzgerald lited a large hammer and struck him on tne ba k of the head, inflicting a se- vere, but, fortunately, not a fatal wound. Kuss Was in the hospital eight days. It was shown that the prisoner was siightly under the influence of liquor at the time and that he had heretofore en- joyed a good reputation ior peaceableness. These Jacts probably induced the jury to modify their ver- dict and to find the prisoner guilty of an assauit van a dangerous weapon with intent to do bodily parm. His Honor sentenced Fitzgerald to the State Prison for five years. A8 soon as the sentence was pronounced the wile of the prisoner, who was in Court, shrieked and fainted. ‘The officers carried her out and quiet was soon restored. Ye Grand Larceny.

A Wagon Thiet Sent to Sing Sing for ae Five Years. Frederick Secor, against whom were three in- dictments, was tried and convicted upon a charge ot stealing a light wagon, valued at #100, on the 14th of July, the preperty of Wilham Pepper. The prisoner, in the face of clear proof, had the au- dacity to go upon the stand and swear that he bougit the wagon, His Honor gave him the full penalty, which was five years in the State Prison. Grand Larce John McCarty and Frank Robinson, who stole a pocketbook containing $48, on the-3ist or July, owned by Ellen Driscoll, pleaded guilty to the charge, They were each sent to the State Prison for three years.

As the readers of the HERALD already know, the merchants of New York have taken steps towards effecting @ permanent organization for the pur pose of co-operating with the Farmers! Associa- tions of the West in securing speedy relief from the present embarrassments to commerce arising from insuficient transportation facilities, The shippers in Chicago are even more excited over the subject than the New York merchants, and, in canvassing the means for establishing a permanent reformation in the carrying trade of tne country, they are quite in advance of their correspondents here. Various methods for securing the one great de- sideratum have been discussed, but until now no project has been put into definite shape. Below will be found the text of A MBMORIAL to be submitted to Congress at the next session. It is being largely signed by the heavy mercantile firms of New York and Chicago, Whether the plan which it presents shall meet with favor at Washington or not will depend upon the mani- festation of public opinion at large upon it, pena- ing the introduction of a bill in Congress to sanc- tion the scheme, Politicians will do well to study this whole sub- ject thoroughly, and then retrain trom offering any opinion thereupon whatever until the popular voice shall have informed them unerringly which Way the rising wind will blow. THE MERCHANTS TO CONGRESS. To THR SENATE aND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THR Unitep STATES — We, the undersigned, citizens of the several Stat named below, would most respectiully present this memoria! uring the Winter months for years past there has been a pressing want of increased: transportation tacili- ties from the West to the seaboard. The railroad con panies have been unable to receive and transport all the roverty offered them, and their inability to meet the lemands upon them for transportation has Induced them to exact largely increased rates of freignt, with results alike damaging to the agricultural, manufacturing aud business interests of the entire country. ‘The immense elevators and grain warehouses of Chicago have been (in mid-Winter) ‘iilled to overflowing, com- elling thei partially to suspend business, so that fhe roads bringing grain from the West to Chicago have been ‘unable to unload their cars, and, consequently, they have Leen obliged to refure transportation to their patrons. ‘The warehouses in the country becoming full, farmers have, In many instances, been unable to find 'a market tor their gran, ‘This Winter freight embargo has also prevented the Westera Pork packers and provision dealers trom realising on millions of dollars’ worth of property wanted in i:uro- pean marke's, The impossibility of shipping said prop- erty when ready for market has resulted in severe stringency in money matters, derangmg and damaging business ‘and ‘causing financial embarrassment, Wo would, also, respec.iuily remind your honorable bodies of the rapid increase of” population and ol the agricul- tural growth aud industrial pursuits of the vast territory more than six hundred thousand square miles) between akes Michigan and Superior and the western boundary line of Nebraska, which, to a very is tribu- tary to, Chicago, in all business “matters, and through which city the major portion of the surplus products of that section of the country must pass during the season of suspended navigation of the lakes and rivers to reach the great markets of the Atlantic Staces ur have observed with pleasure ihe several propositio for enlarged and additional water facilities between the East and the West, to mucually benefit the producers and con-umers of Our produce.

This road, worked at about seven miles to the hour, would carry from Chi o to New York every year @ tonnage equal to four hundred and fifty million bushels of wheat and return as many tons to Chicago. In case. Congress is not prepared to order the construction of such a highway as a national public work we humbly pray your honorable bodies to grant a charter tor the Construction of such a road, with judicious and proper restrictions as to capital stock. toll rates, speed of trains and impartiality in the reception and transportation of freight. In the judgment of your petitioners said charter should require the company (to whom it may be granted) to receive and transport over its ling, with’ reasonable despatch and at prescribed maximum and untiorm rates of toll, all cars (whether loaded or empty) corresponding in gauge and construction with its own, or of acertain specified standard of coustruction. ‘The charter, also, to Fequire of the company complete and full responsibillt in the care and delivery of all property which it re- ceives.

THE HARBOR MASTER INVESTIGATION. pelea WE Pe Penarth) The Evidenee All In and the Charges Unsubstantiated—Governor Dix to De- cide. The investigation into the charges made against Harbor Masters H, W. Johnston and E, Frost, be- jore E, B. Seaman, Captain of the Port, was con- cluded yesterday, and the testimony was for- warded at once to Governor Dix for his decision. | It is universally admitted that the case of the prosecution has signally failed to make out any direct corruption. It is @ notoriously dificult thing to substaatiate charges made against this class of oMcials, the old régime, which was notoriously bad, The intimacy between the stevedores and Harbor Mas- ters does not look well, to say the least. The fol- lowing Is the principal complaint upon which the trial was had: PR's . To ram Carraix ov tux Pong:— N5™ YORE July % 1878 Sin—On the 18th instant i applied to Captains Johnson and, Frost for a berth for the bark Genevie M. Tucker to Joad, ‘Ihey both tald me they feared they could do nothing forme til the first of ‘the week; bui Mr, Frost toid me to come in to his office the next day, between twelve and one o'clock, and he would see what he could do tor me, Lwent abgit one P.

[ then went to Captain i rost’s office about ten A. M. and he had not been there. On my way back to my office met Mr. Seeley, the stevedore. I asked him ti he had seen Mr. Frost, ‘He said “No; but Tecan put the bark in a will let me tow her.” {asked towing. He answered, “1am 1 then raid, What will you ‘Lean’t make the bargain, but Captain Jake.” Twent, Captain Jake wanted $20 for the job. I told him I would not pay him one dollar more than anybody else, and that I could get itdone tor $15; and after some talk I started to go, w Capiain Jake said, “Well, we can work as cheap as any: body, and we will'do it.” So it was then arranged to bring the bark up the next morning, which was done . H, WINCHESTER, Sworn to this twenty-eighth day of July, 18/3—E, B. Skaman, Captain of the Port. In reply to this Harbor Master Frost makes an affidavit denying all collusion with stevedores or ou men, and demanding a searching exami- nation, berth in pier No. 15, it y him what he had to dow THE EVIDENCE. Edward H. Seeley, stevedore, was sworn, and stated that he had acted without any authority irom the Harbor Master, and admitted that he had violated both tne law and the orders of the Harbor Master with the utmost impunity. He said that Jacob Henyon’s tugboat had been known under the ola régime as ‘the Harbor Master's boat.’ Then, from Captain Frost—“Did you ever, at any time, under any circumstances, offer, directly or indi- rectly, a commission to me for ‘influencing’ in your an Or any one else?’ Answer by the witnéss— “No, D, R. Norve!l, Secretary of the Shipowners’ As- Sociation, 56 Pine street, testified to Mr, Frost's good character, , Captain Jaceb Henyon, towboat owner, gave tes- timouy which would have made him an invaluabie witness at the examination which was held some time ago before Captain Jones. It was as follows :— Q. Did you ever make any pargain with Mr. Frost or any other Harbor Master to do the tow- ing? A. No, sir; not any of the present Board of Harbor Masters, Q. Have you ever offered the Harbor Masters any money tor aberth? A. Ni the present Board of Harbor Masters, Q. Do you consider you enjoy any more privi- leges towing in at pier ld and between piers 14 and 15, than any other steamboat man? A. No, sit; have no more privileges than any other towboat man. THE CHARGES AGAINST MR. JONNSTON were based upon an alidavit of Alfred Dutch, Sr., charging that the Harbor Master had himself “sent @ boat lor the bark St. Ursula, and that when asked about it admitted the same, saying tbat he did not care a damn for anybody and would kill any tow- boat man who did not do as he wanted him.’ Alfred Dutch, when sworn, could not say of his own knowledge that these charges were true, John Wilson, when sworn, said that he knew of nothing de\rimental to Captain Johnston's integ- rity. M Loyell, stevedore, did not know that Captain Such was the case even under | No, sir; meyer under | | | | .C i$ Johnston had any interest in the towboat bust ness. Jehn E.
