They are only alluded to inthis place for the purpose of introducing the remark that the revelations have thus far produced no effect upon the general market, beyond the exercise of greater caution in dealing with other kinds of cecurities which pass by millions through the yarious avenues of Wallstreet, In fact, the tone of business men 1s antagonistic to anything like a panic, and convulsion can only be caused by some mighty crash, involving a larger area of loss than is likely to be created by the criminaiity of a haif dozen prison bird SALES AT THE NEW YORK STOOK EXOHANGE, Monday, Septem 10 A.

Brooklyn’s Last Defalcation—What Was Said and Done Yesterday—The Situation as feen by the President of the Trust Company. ‘There were no new developments in the Rod- mau defalcation case in Brooklyn yesterday, and the excitement appeared to have pretty generally subsided, despite the strenuous efforts on the part of wordy scribes to keep up an indated popular feeling on the sub- Ject. He remained in the Raymond Street Jail y. | Waiting for his friends to come forward and go ball for him in the sum of $50,000, They fatled to | come forward, and the ex-Deputy Treasurer, who managed to defraud the city out of $140,000, has | grown weary of waiting, His counsel are stil confident, however, that the 10oked- for bondsimen will come torward in good time and that their client “may be happy yet.” Much of the time of the city oMiciais Was occupied yesterday in submission to that mod- ern torture commonly known as “interviewing.” Among the victims of the reportoriai inquisition may be included His Honor Mayor Powe), Alder- man Ropes (President of the reorganized ‘Trust Company), Receiver Chauncey, Assistant District Attorney Cullen, Corporation Counsel De Witt, Treasurer Sprague, W. . Kingsley and Judge Me- Que. Mr, Chauncey informed the writer that the assertion recently Made by ove of the papers to the effect that he had, while acting as re- ceiver for the Brooklyn Trus¢ Company, received $13,000 from Rodman and had placed it tothe credit of that individual on the books at the request of the latter, was without foundation in tact, “The money was said to have been recetved by him on the lith of August. Mr, | Chauncey was discharged as receiver of the Trust + Company on the evening of the 8th of August, hence he could not have made the transfer acered- lved to him. The books of tue company and the re- port of the recetver are exact in taeir comparison with the statement of the accountant, Mr. Warren, so say Messrs. Ropes nud Chaancey. Warrants | were issued yesterday for tue payment of all the employ ésof the city, the same as Usual on the first of the month, Lhe story coucerning the forged gold check for $50,375, Which was in possession of the Trust Company, Which invoived a loss to that Mmstitavion of about two-tnirds the tace value, which was paid by the company, Was sprung as something new yesterday. President iopes says it cannot now be ‘ound in the oitice, elieves, however, that Rodman knew all about it.
