av PENAL SERVITUDE FOR LIFE. The Four American Forgers Who Trifled with the Bank of England. The Last Day at the Criminal Court. Central Begging for Meiey Without Effect and the Hard Features of ‘Exact Justice.” HONOR AMONG THIEVES. The London journals of August 27, devote im- mense space tothe final proceedings against the Bank of England forgers who have been undergoing trial before Mr. Justice Archibald at the Central Criminal court. The RERALD in a full report by cable, has already given the substance of these Proceedings and has recorded the sentence to penal servitude for life passed by the Court on the four American criminals, The case, however, merits further notice, because of the extraordinary in- terest it has excited on both sides of the Atlantic, The London papers have almost, without exception, Jong editorial articles recapitulating the career of amgenuity and audacity led by these men. {From the London Daily News, August 27.) THE LAST DAY OF THE TRIAL. After the evidence was closed, Mr. Giffard pro- ceeded to sum up the case for the prosecution, and hhe said ne probably should not have occupied the me of the jury in so doing but for some witnesses that had been introduced into the case, with regard to whom he thought a few observations might be made. He then explained that the cn: against the prisoners was that they had all combined to- er to commit this gigantic fraud, and it was clear that in such a fraud different parts must be taken by the different parties; but il they were all bere in carrying out one common object, they were all equally guilty. It he could understand one Portion of the defence, it amounted to a complaint hat the Bank of England had not taken proper pre- cautions, and uad not made proper inquiries; but it was all very well to be wise after the event, and the actual state of things at the time was very important to be considered, He then reminaed them that such a portentous scheme of forgery had probably never betore been projected 4n any country, and that in the first instance good bills drawn Seen the first houses in the kingdom. and amounting to £9,000, were presented, and Were duly paid, and this in itself was calculated to disarm suspicion. The bills were also carefully examined, and they were sent for discount under such circumstances as not to excite the least uspicion, The learned counsel next referred with #ome minuteness to the various facts that had been proved in evidence, and said he did not know whether any point would be made by the counsel for the prisoners of u fact that Austin Bidwell was not in this country when a great number of his cheeks were presented at the Continental Bank; but in point of tact, although he was out of the country, submitted that it was clear that he was tae rincipal mover in the matter, and that he left be- id him checks signed in blank, in order that his Partners in the crime might nave an opportunity of withdrawing the proceeds of the forgeries from the Continental Bank. The learned counsel then briefly called the attention of the jury to all the other material facts in the case, and concluded by expressing an opinion that, upon the evidence the jury had before them, only one reasonable conclu- sion could be arrived at, which was that the whole 01 the prisoners were guilty of tne gigantic scheme of fraud and jorgery that Was imputed to them by the prosecution. THE COUNSEL ABANDON THEIR CLIENTS. Mr. Metcalie then said that he felt that it would be periectly useless, alter the evidence that had been given, tor him to address the jury on behaif of the prisoner Macdonnell. That prisoner, how- ever, was desirous of addressing himself a few ob- servations to the Court. Mr. Besley said he Lo apace that a similar course should be adopted with regard to the prisoner George Bidwell. MACDONNELL ADDRESSED THE JURY, and he said that what he had to state was so sup- ~NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1873—TRIPLE SHEET. ter to dispose of the case at but the Court in that the jury was adjourned for some nt ha meu = ve some refreshment.. Lordship gave a brie outline of the general character of prisoners’ ings and the circumstances under which the account was ori- ginally openea with the Bank of mrapand by the prisoner Austin Bidwell, and of the circumstances under which the torged bills'were subsequently sent to the bank to be discounted. He said that there might have been.a little want of caution on the part of the bank authorities, but it should not ve Jorgotten that he was recommended by a re- Spectable customer, Mr, Green, and that he paid 10 @ considerable sum of money—£1,200—and these were circumstances well calculated to allay suspi- cion. It appeared to him to be very dificult to lieve upon the facts that the statement of Macdonnell was true, that Auscin Bidwell had repented, and resolved to have nothing more to do with the atfair, His Lordship next proceeded to deal with thn case of Noyes. who, he said, was represented to have been merely the clerk or innocent agent, andthe any, would have to consider whether, upon the tacts, they could come to the conclusion that tnis was his posiuon. As to his being @ stranger, it was quite clear that this could not be true, be- cause it Was proved that he was telegraphed to by the prisoner, Austin Bidwell, in August, and again in December a peremptory order was sent to him to come to England by the next Wednesday’s steamer, and i: was evident that he did start in ® great hurry, because he brought no luggage With him, and nothing at all except a small valise. It also appeared that Austin Bidwell had engaged @ room for him at the hotel, and had told the landlady that he expected a friend, and when hearrived he was introduced by the name of Brooks. He then called the attention of the jury to what tovk place at the dinner on the Christmas Day, when, according to the evidenee of Ellen Vernon, all the prisoners were on the most friendly and intimate terms, and it was for the jury to consider how this state of things was consistent witn the suggestion that Noyes wasa stranger to the other prisoners. The learned judge then called the attention of thejury to the other material points in the evidence, and concluded by leaving the case in their hands, THE VERDICT. ‘The jury retired at a quarter-past seven o'clock to deliberate. They returned into court in about twenty minutes, and found: all the prisoners uilty. - The prisoners were then formally asked whether they had anything to say why judgment should hot be passed upon them. The prisoner (Austin Bidwell) asked whether he could not have his sentence postponed, in order that he might lay before the Court.some incidents of his past life. He could, however, only speak of time wasted and of opportunities thrown away, and this he supposed would not avail him, and therefore he should not press the application. He desired, however, to take that opportunity of making the only sehacance in his power to one gentieman, Colonel Francit, and to express his sorrow at the wrong he had done him, ‘hen his resentment had passea away he hoped that Colonel Francis wouid believe that he sincerely repented of what he nad done, Macdonnell next addressed the Court, and said that, so jar as he was concerned, he had Bosnia to say with respect to the verdict, but he wished to bas few words in reterence to the prisoner, Hills, ir, Justice Archibald told him he could not be Permitted to do that. Macdonnell went on to state that all he wished to say was that Hills knew nothing whatever of the forgery, and all that he was told was that it was their intention to Introduce some shares of depre- ciated American mines on the Stock Exchange. GEORGE BIDWELL then addressed the Court, and he commencea by complaining that all his own property had been taken away from him, and he was without a shil- ling. He inquired whether Mis Lordship could not make an order that some portion cf this property shoula be returned to him ¥ Mr. Justice Archibald said he had no power to enter into this question. BEGGING FOR MERCY. George Bidweil then said that, so far as he was concerned, he did not esk for mercy, but he did ask for mercy tor his brother. He was twelve years yeonney than himself, and he might never have een in the position he now was but for him. He had just married a young wife. He was young, and he entreated the Court to have mercy upon him and give him another chance, The Apperes Noyes then briefly addressed his lordship, and he said he would not deny that he knew his fellow prisoners when he came to Lon- don, but he declared that he never knew that forgeries of this description had been going on until he was taken into cus- tody. He admitted that he knew that “something wrong’ was going on, but he thought it related to the placing of shares in depreciated mines upon the Stock Exchange. He declared emphaticaily that he knew nothing about the forgeries, and prayed his lordship to consider Whether there were not some mitigating circum- stances in his case. He concluded by saying that it was God-like to show mercy, and he entreated Ported by the evittence that it would be well Worthy o/ consideration. So far ashe was con- cerned, personally, he admiiied that this evidence ‘was conclusive, but lie was anxious to rescue one of his fellow prisoners from being convicted of an offence of which he was innocent. He was aware that ne was cutting the ground from under his own feet, but he was desirous to screen one of his companions. Mr, Justice Archibald said he could only permit Sim to address the jury on his own behalf He could not permit him to address tne jury on behalf of another prisoner. Mr. Macdonnell then said the prosecution seemed to be desirous to make out that they had all come to this country for the express Et ead of carryin out this {raud. He asserted that they had ro suck 4ntention. Mr. Green told them that the openin; Of the account was a complete accident. They had been travelling about and intended to go to San Francisco. They intended to do “certain business”? at Vienna, but were prevented by his becoming very ill, and he subsequently purchased in Ainster- dam a bill upon London, and he had another bill from Vienna drawn upon London, and he had means of seeing how business of this kind was done, und noticed that it was very different to the American method, and he telegraphed to a son abroad to state that he had made a great uscovery. in America wheu @ bill was intended ‘to be discounted it was always sent to the accepter to be initiailed. Here he found it was different, and the result was that he was standing before ‘them that day. Hein the first place telegraphed w George Bidwell, and toid him to purchase the foreign bilis that had been spoken of, and this was the real commencement of the fraud. He then went on to say that Austin Bidwell, aiter he had met with the accident on the railway, was advisea to go abroad, and he left England in January, and was entirely ignorant of what occurred alterward. He thep went on to say that the evidence of Mr. Chabot, that the endorsements on some of the forged bilis were written by Austin Bidwell, was .mot correct, and no one, he said, knew this better than he did, itor he wrote them himself. He then went on to as- sert that austin Bidwell, at the time he went away trom England, knew nothing of the tutended 4raud, aud he reminded the jury that when he leit 4t was clear trom the evidence that al! the arrange- ‘ments were in confusion. He deciared that it was solely owing to the factiity with which the first lot oi bills was discounted that they were encouraged to continue their proceedings. He urged upon the Jury to cousider that it was of no interest to him to make this statement, and he was only desirous that an innocent man sbould not suffer tor a crime that had been committed by others, aud he asked them to remember that none of the forged bills Were presented until after Austin Bidwell had lett Engiand, He then commented upon the other facts of the case, and, while admitting his own @uilt, asserted that he was desirous to make all | ‘the reparation in his ap and he hoped it would | bave the efect he iad in view of inducing them to relieve Austin Bidweil trom the position in which he was piaced. The prisoner sat down aid he had , but rose up directly, and Iso something to say on behalf oi THE PRISONER Mr. Justice Archibald said he could not permit nim | to do that—he was defended by counsel. George Bidwell next addressed the jury. He also said he aamitted his share in the guilty trans- Action, ond he would kave pleaded guilty and Ubrown himself on the merey oj the Court if he had Bot een aware that it Would be uecessary for the prosecution to have proved all the tact», and would Dot have bad this opp ortunity of addressing @ lew observations to tue Court. He was then about to Make some observations Wit yes, but | the learned Judge told him he could not permit | he sat down, morely observing | uid do Was to repeat the observations that bad been made by his fellow prisouer Macdon- ell, aud to ussert tit was true, Mr. M‘intyre then addressed the jury on behalf of THE PRISONER AUSTIN BYRON BIDWELL, | and be endeavored to stow that the account which | had been originally opened by bim at the West End | Branch of the Bank of Eu, Was au accidental sircumstance, and he argued that there was no | evidence Whatever to suow that at this time any regary to N his lordship to exercise it towards him. THE SENTENCE, Mr. Justice Archibald then addressed the prisoners, and said that although they were only charged in the indictment upon which they had been convietea with forging one bill of exchange, the evidence that it was necessary for the prose- cution to bring forward in support of this charge made it quite clear that they had all been engaged in a scheme of fraud which, perbaps, for it audacity of conception, Hs magnitude, and the skill with which it was carried out, was completely un- paralleled. He could not see aay mitigating cir- cumstances in the case of any one of them. They were not pressed by want, but had the command of @ considerable sum of money, and they were not. persons who might, perhaps, have been ig- norant of the terrible consequences in a com- mercial community like this that were likely to be occasioned by such acts as those of which they had been guilty. Their crime was aggravated by the factthat they were men possessed of educa- tion, who could speak several languages, and who must have been well aware of the nature and effect of what they were doing, and the serious shock that was likely to be given to commercial credit by the course they were pursuing. Those who acted in such a manner Inust expect, when they were reached by the arm of the law, to receive w# terrible retribution at its hands. So far as they were concerned, he could not see any distinction in their cases, and ifhe could have conceived any case of forgery worse than theirs he would have considered whether he might have been justified in refraining trom going to the full extent of the law in tne present instance. He was unable to conceive a worse case, and ne therefore felt 1t to be his duty to order each of them to be kept in penal servitade for life, and he also made an order that each of them should pay one- fourth of the expenses of the prosecution. ‘The prisoners, who exhibited a most dejected and downcast appearance, were then removed, DANGEROUS NUISANCE IN JERSEY CITY, For some montis past every person who has passedewithin a quarter of a mile of the slaughter house and guano factory on the boundary line be, tween Jersey City and Hoboken has been com- pelled to guard against timediate sickness of stomach, owing to an intolerable stench that emanates from that quarter. Complaints have been made by hundreds of persons, many of whom have been taken sick while passing, but so far not the slightest heed has been paid to the earnest appeals of the people who sufler, Disease has be- come prevalent in the neighboring houses, owing to the noxious vapors constantly dissipated by the rendering and bone refining processes. If the health authorities persist in their negligence to in- duce the owners of the nuisance to adopt some measures for the relief of the neighboring inhab- itants, the matter will be brought under the Chan- cellor’s notice. FEARFUL FALL At a late hour on Saturday night John McCon- nell, a lad, sixteen years of age, who lived in the six story tenement house No, @ Mulberry street, proceeded to the roof to take a nap, and subse- | quently, while asleep, rolled off to the front side- waik, falling within a few inches of where his brother and some other boys were sitting. John's | almost lifeless body was forthwith removed to the Park Hospital, where death ensued soon after- wards. Coroner Young was calied to noid antn- quest on the body in Mulberry street, whither it las been taken by permission Of the Coroner. HAVANA MARKETS, Havana, Sept, 6, 1873.

The Payment of the Geneva Award— Secretary Richardson’s Plan: The exact amount of exchange sold the British government to the bankers entrusted with the payment of the Geneva award was $8,191,419.58, and the amount of government se- curities purchased and transferred on gold cer- tificates was $7,308,550.42, making the total of $15,500,000, The object in calling in the 20,000,000 five twenties on June 6, was to anticipate the three months’ notice required by law for retiring bonds bearing six per cent, so that the Geneva award could be promply invested when te sum was paid into the Treasury instead of giving notice three months from the date of payment. Secretary Richardson was certain the payment would be promptly made, and the call of June 6 be- longs solely to the Treasury Department and has nothing to do with the business of the Syndicate. Of the five-twenues, interest on wich ceased yes- terday, four millions were registered bonds held entirely in this country, principally by national banks ana insurance companies, and of the remain- der (sixteen mi’lions of coupon bonds) one-hal! at least were held in the United States, ‘The agents of the British government would, had it been pos- sible, have paid the full amount of the award in the bonds of the United States, and every effort was made to secure the called bonds. Ger- many was searched, and yet of the June call only two millions could be found in that country. The objeet of the call was not however to help the parties engaged in making the’ necessary transfer of gold indebtedness to this country, but to save the government @ loss of interest on the award when paid in. Many plans were proposed by the Syndi- cate by which the business was to be consummated, and the simple plan of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury was the only one which met the approval of those consulted. He made the call of bonds large enough to cover the full amount, and said to the bankers, ‘there are called bonds worth their face vaine in gold. Get them wherever you can find them, for they will be paid on the 6th of September, and the gold certificates will be obligations on the part of this government to pay whenever presented.”” The result has been satisfactory to all concerned, and while no advantage whatever was given the bankers, our government reaps a double benefit. The calling out of the market $20,000,000 of five- twenties has already been followed by subscrip- tions to nearly that amount of the newyfive per cent bonds, which, with the five per cents in which the award 1s to be invested, and the $65,000,000 already subscribed by the syndicate, will now make a total of $300,000,000 five per cent bonds bearing interest, and leave but $200,000,000 of this part of the new funded loan to be placed. The Work of the American and Spanish Claims Commission. The American and Spanish Commission has, thus far, disposed of about ten of the claims before it. The number pending is 118, some of which have been filed since May last. Several are now before the umpire for hfs decision. It is said at the Oftice of the Commission that the business would have been closed eighteen months ago but for the difficulty of obtaining Information outside of the limits of Havana. If the existing rules with regard to the filing of printed memorials and exhibits, in both English and Spanish, shall not be complied with before the 1st of November, the cases to whfch they relate will be dismissed. The Resignation of Governor Cooke. The resignation of Governor Henry D. Cooke is in abeyance, and will be accepted in a short time. Mr. Cooke leaves here the latter part of this week for New York, whence he will sail on the 13th ior Europe to join his family in Switzerland, at Berne. From that place he will, it is said, send tne neces- sary document to the President, and the office will be tendered to A. R. Shepherd, the present Vice President of the Board of Public Works, though the announcement will not be promulgated for at Teast six weeks. In this connection it is also stated that Mr. Cooke will remain abroad two years, and will, after his travelling season, be at- tached to the London firm, exchanging places in the banking house with Mr. McCulloch, who is ex- pected here the latter part of this moath, The Vexatious Delay in the Delivery of the New York ‘Mails. The continued irregularity of the New York mal) for Washington is becoming intolerable. Inquiry at the Post Office Department shows tnat the de- tention is entirely north of Baltimore, and that the Ba'timore and Ohio Railroad, instead of being at fault, is the only company—barring unavoidable detentions by accident—that has promptly fulfilled its part of the contract. It is stated by the Post OMice officials that frequently the mail has been brought from Baltimore to this city by special engine, when delivered behind time to the Baltimore and Ohio Company, and is never on thelr road over sixty minutes, It is also said, Im defence of the postal arrangements, that these delays were very seldom known until. the Pennsylvania Central Railroad, Which controls and owns the route from Philadel- phia to New York, and the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad from Baltimore to Washington, ten days ago begun its proscriptive action against the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. The ob- ject, 1t is said, is undoubtedly to compel the Post- master General to annul the contract with the Baltimore and Ohio Company and give it to the Baltimore and Potomac, or else make the public endure the detention of the postal car north of Baltimore. Since the order forbidding the cars of the Baltimore and Ohio: road to proceed north beyond Gray's ferry, near Philadelpma, there has hardly been a mall from Washington that has not been five or six hours behind, The greatest privation to the public is the absence of news- papers, and as the sale of the HeraLp in Washing- ton is larger than all the other daily papers put together, the rights and interests of the public will be ignored while this proscription is continued. Night afcer night the news stands have been bar- ren of the New York dailies, and to the repeated inquiries, “Have you the HeraLp?? the answer has been, “The HERALD didn’t come to-night.” How long this is to continue depends upon the | Pennsylvania Central Railroad, which, througn its representatives, preached anti-monopoly to Con- gress until it secured franchises of imestimabie value to the Baltimore and Potomac road, and now 18 the first to embarrass the government in forwarding the mails be- tween New York and Washington. The people should not be made to suffer on account of rivairy and oontention between railroad companies. Contracts for Headstones for the Na- tional Cemeteries. Bids were opened at the Quartermaster-General’s oMce yesterday to furnish headstones for the Na- tional Military cemeteries, There were quite a large number of bids received, nearly all of them accompanied by samples of stone proposed to be furnished, It is estimated that 253,088 stones will be required, 147,604 for the known and 106,304 for the unknown dead. Congress, at the last session, appropriated one million doitars w pay therefor, and the contract will be divided among several of the bidders, the elements of durability, decency | and cheapness being considered in selecting the stones, ‘The Secretary of War will examine all the bids and award the contracts in afew days, A ORIMINAL'S DARING ESCAPE. Memruis, Tenu., Sept. 7, 1873. Some ten days since quite an excitement was created in the eastern suburbs of this city by the | errest or J. E. White, a prominent citizen, on @ charge of horse stealing, and within a few days subsequent no less than a dozen specific charges for similar offences were made public. He was committed for trial Without bail, To-day his wile called to see him, and after spencing about half an hour with him came to the gate and asked to be let oat. When the guard opened the gave White presented a cocked revolver at lis head and cred, “Let me out or die!” The guardsprang back, and White darted out and mounted 4 horse which was in waiting, and dashed off before an alarm could be given. Pursutt was instituted as early as possi- bie, but up to dark he had not been recaptured, His wife had carried the revolver enveloped in her panier to Lim and had the horse in waiting. She Was arrested, THE PASHION STUD PARM INCENDIARISM. | The Accused Confesses to His Crime. ‘The investigation into the charges preferred against Morris Perpil for the alleged setting fire to the stables on Fashion Stud Farm last Thursday, was postponed to Tuesday next, in consequence of the State not being ready to proceed. The pris- oner, in the meantime, was committed to tne County Jail in default of $2,000 bail. The postpone- Ponement seemed to be on account of Mr. Cook and other witnesses being unable to identify Perea 4s the person who made use of the threats published in the HERALD of Saturday. They say that it Was another man, and not Perpil, who was guilty of using the language imputed to him. The oniy evidence brought forward against the accused was that based on an astidavit made by Mr. Jack- man, attaching suspicion to him, and on which the prisober was held. Yesterday morning, however, all doubts as to the imprisoned man’s guilt were removed, when he made a complete con- fession of his crime, The pr.son officials so harped on him with cross questious that they elicited Jrom the fellow @ full conjession, His trial will take piece, very soon, and no woubt tie jul penalty will be meted out to him. He is anxious to have his trial come off immediately, The news of his con- fession spread like wild-fire through Trenton, and created @ profound sensation. ARREST OF AN IRISH “AUTHOR.” Can a Painter Be Justifiably Called a “Pig Jobber and Hog Slaughterer ?” Mr. John McElgun, a young Irish author, of No. 873 Eighth avenue, was arrested yesterday by Deputy Marshal McLoughlin and piaced in Ludlow Street Jail, on a charge of libel preterred against him by Mr. John G, Carey, @ house painter, of No. 744 Sixth avenue, for publishing the following alleged jibelious remarks in a book written by Mr. Mckigun, called ‘Annie Reilly; or, The Fortunes of an Irish Girl m New York,” and published by a Barclay street publisher Mr. Carey alicges in his complaint that in said book deiendant is called by name John G, Carey, and is alluded to by Mckigun “as a false-hearte hypocrite,” “that low, mean, sneaking turn-coat,”” “the contemptible, crawling hound that he is;'? alao as a “pig jobber and hog siaughterer ;” that “Carey vas changed his religious belief; is “a lar, @ great liar, a skilful, systematic liar,” &c, ‘ne prisoner, who is a very intelligent young man anda native of Milltown, near Belturbet, in county Cavan, Ireland, says that the name of Carey isan imaginary one, and that his Carey is a pig jobber and hog slaughterer, and that the scene is in Munster, Ireland. He looks upon the matter as @ big joke, and says that Carey has no case. Clerk of Arrests, Mr. Judson Jarvis, says that Mr, Carey is very angry over tne affair. ORIMINAL VIOLENOE, Ellen McGovern, of Thirty-seventh street, be- tween Eighth and Ninth avenues, was stabbed in the arm yesterday by an unknown man while alt- tng in Fifty-seventh street. About five o’clock last evening an altercation took place between James Irwin and James Mar- key, of No. 36 Fast Tenth street, when Irwin struck his opponent with some sharp instrument in the eye, inficting a dangerous wound, He was atten led by Dr. Roberts. Irwin was locked up. William Kelly, of No. 43 Elm street, and Daniel Gillen, of No. 104 Bayard street, got into an alter- cation. yesterday in front of the latter's house, when Kelly stabbed Gillen in the leg. He was arrested by Captain Kennedy, of the Sixth precinct police, YACHTING NOTE. Yacht J. T.
