— IMPOSITION. Another Sensation in Wall Street. “WESTERN UNION’ AND “WABASH.” Forged Letters Read in the &tock Exchange— “That Same 0ld Hand”—A Gentleman Who Writes Too Well—Stampede of the Festive Brokers—Selling, Buying and Sold— The Credit of the Street Impugned. Yesterday was an exciting day in Wall street. Not since the “panic” has such a bombshell fallen into that charmed circle known as the New York Stock Exchange. At two o'clock in the afternoon “the street” presented an unwonted appearance, ‘and to the most casual observer it was evident that something extraordinary had occurred to disturb the outward tranquillity which ordinarily reigns in that volcanic region. It takes a great deal to dis- ‘turb Wall street; but 1t was evident that a state of high excitement was reached yesterday. A few minutes aiter one o'clock yesterday after- noon @ messenger boy—one of the regwiarly uni- formed messengers of the Stock Exchange— handed a letter to Vice President Wheelock, who opened the envelope listlessly, and, standing, read out the announcement that the Western Union | Telegraph Company wished to give notice to the New York Stock & Union Telegraph Company, had increased their capital stock irom $41,073,410 to $50,000,000, The letter was addressed to Moses H. Wheelock, Vice President of the New York Stock Exchange, and ran as follows :— Westra Untow Trucrarn Cowranr, } esident New York New York, Feb. 17, 1874, K, Esq., Vice Pri Moses H. Wari Stock Exchange As required 1 change, you are hereby mtormed that the Directors of this Company, atier mature deliberation, and acting, 93 they believe, in accordance with the ultimate best inter- ests of the Company, have decided 10 Increase the capital K of this Company trom $41,073.410 to $30,000,000. ‘The proceeds of ‘the sale of ditional, stock, together with the proceeds of the sale of $7,200,235 of stock Jately in possession ot the Company, will be ex- ended in the repairs and improvement of the present ines and the eatension of the lines of the Company to nearly all the post offices in the Umted States’ and for the establishment of a line to California and Mexico, The directors beg to state that while the establishment ot new lines may delay for a iittle the expected divi- dends to stockhoiiers, they express a confident hope that by thus taking possession of the whole fleld, and etfectu- aily thwarting the establishment of a rival company, the ultimate value of (he stock will be in no way diminished, and that reasonuble divilends can be paid at no distant day. Yours truly, WILLIAM ORTON, President. This note had scarcely been read when another floor page rushed across the floor of the Exchange from the New street entrance and handed Mr, Wheelock another letter. The second letter wa3 addressed, as was the first, to Moses H. Wheelock, f the Vice’ President New York Stock Exchange, and _ the Vice President read it in THE SAME BUSINESS tone in which he did the other. was dullat the time. Tne gay and festive brokers ‘were apparently at their lunch. But if they were | the meal was hastily fiuished, For some one, who had an eye to number one in another sense, had had his sharpeued by the reading of the first letter and listened most attentively to the reading of the second, and carried the news right quickly, The second letter was dated from the offices of the | Toledo, Wabash and Western Railway Company, and both were written on printed slips of the com- pany’s paper. It ran:— New Yorx, Feb. 17, 1874. To tHe Vick Presiwent or tak New YoRK Stock ‘Bxowance -— Tn accordance with the rales of the New York Stock Exchange you are hereby notified that, at the expiration of thirty days, this company will issue 100,000 shares of, Additional capttal stock. increasing the cou +the company trom $15,000,000 to $25,000,000. such additional shares will be used for the mon stock of Proceeds of purchase of ‘new roliing stock and engines and for repairsot present | rolling stock, for constructing new bridges, tor building adaitional doubie track, for the purchase of steel! rails, for obtaining improved terininal facilities, and for other similar purposes oi the company. Very respectfully, J.D, CUR. Though the Exchange was comparatively empty when the above letters were read, it filled in an incredibly short time—in a much shorter time than {t takes to describe the change. Chaos, of course, ensued—a natural consequence of @ start- Ung announcement in the New York Stock Ex- change; but fortunately there were two or three sane individuals leit who took the letters trom THE VICS PRESIDENTS DESK, and, having examined them, pronounced them at | once and untesitatingly forgeries. ‘The oilicers of the Exchange of course immediately sent letcers to the officers of the two companies which were said to have increased their capital stock. The follow- ing epigrammatie announcement came from the officers of the foledo, Wabash and Western Rail- road Company :— The above is not genuine. Mr. Cox isin Toledo. There das been no meeting, neither is this Mr. Uox’s signature. P. W. BRIGGS, Transter Clerk. Later on the following etter was received from Mr. William Orton, the President o1 the Western Union Telegraph Company : — New York, Feb. 17, 1874. ae Cnarman, Esq,, President New York Stock Ex- iB T have just learned an announcement has been made 4n the stock Exchange that the directors of the Western Union Telegraph Company have recently voted to in- crease the capital stock to 0,00, This announce- ment has no foundation in fact. No meeting ot the directors has been heid tor several months, nor has the. | matter of the increase of the capital stock ot the com- pany been a sub,ect of consideration at any meeting of the Executive Committee. Respecttully, WILLIAM ORTON, President But meantime one stock, the Western Union, had fallen off nearly iour per cent, and the other, what Mr. Daniel Drew would call “those Way bosh sheers,”’ a trifile short of three percent. Men rushed into the Stock Exchange to sell when the forged announcements of ap increase of capital stock were made. In A FEW SHORT MINUTES men who had svid rushed in to buy at the old “panic prices,” but they found themselves “sold,”? e place was rather excited at first, but charac- teristically the gay and festive element knuckied down to “hard pan,” and by three o’clock in the afternoon all you could hear on the street was the usual hadinage, and an occasional question asked, in all seriousuess of course, “Was it you wrote that letter Several gentlemen who had been “carrying Western Union” took a serious view of the matter and were slightly demonstrative, but the twinkle in the right eye of the listener showed that he had been “short” and that “ne took it all in.’’ In these few short hours, in a word, hundreds of thousands of dollars had been lost and won, Jour per cent vee {ng what most mena would term a “heavy drop.’ Immediately aiter the bogus announcement from the Western Union Teiegraph office & HERALD re- porter calied on Mr. Wiliam Orton, the President of the company. Tuat ventieman was evidently holding a@ directors’ levee, but appeared willing enough to inform the public what he thought of THE FRAUD which had been perpetrated on his company. After the reporver had imtroduced the object of his visit, Mr. Orton said :— PRESIDENT OKTON’S STATEMENT. “You have doubtless heard the statement that this company intended to imcrease its capital stock. That statement is faise in every particular. The company bas no such intention, and did not have, ‘The thing ts a forgery pure and simple.” “Of course you could have no possible intimation of this, Mr, Orton,” bm grey the reporter, “No; beyond the fact that I received a circular, to which | paid no attention,” was the answer. “Might Lask what was*the purport of that cir- cular?” “Yes. It was a circular calling for a meeting of tke directors of the company, at the Grand Central depot, at half-past one o'clock to-day. ‘To-morrow, you know, 18 the regular day for a meeting of the directors, but when I received the circular I paid no attention to it, It was sent, asl understand, to most of the directors, but few of them, I believe, Pald any attention to it. Some did go to the Grand Central depot, however. It was part of tne same game to send this bogus circular and to send bogus annauncements to the Vice President of the New York Stock Exchange.” “Have you any idea where the fraud originated, Mr. Orton?’ asked the reporter. ‘No, sir; but the same man who originated the rumor of Commodore Vanderbilt’s death has un- dertaken this.’? The reporter left the building and went down to the offices of the Pacific Mail Company, at No. 69 Wall street. Here he conversed with several of the directors, who animadverted somewhat severel! on the Vice President's action in reading the let- Sr, Oe Prominent man on the street re+ “Be should have CONSULTED {HE GOVERNING COMMITTER of the Stock Exchange, or eise he should have sent to the directors of the companies inyoived | Derure Fonaing ay such document from the ros- rum, There is only ove course for the n Committee to pursue in the matter. © COvermNs This statement may be taken as an Index of the general feeling on the street tate in the after- Noon, for the Winners had gone up town early, a8 they said, because ‘it was a dull aiternoon.” THE GOVERNING COMMITTER, The Governing Committee of the Stock Exchange met at three o'clock to take action on the matter and remained in session for several hours, The consultation was of course private, but the HeraLp representative learned that four members of the Stock Exchange had been summoned before them §o teatldy aq to Dagdwxiting, It was then ataigd hange that they, the Western | ihe rules of the New York Stock Ex. | NEW YORK HERALD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 18, 1874.—TR authoritatively that the Governing Giscovered that the handwriting the letter to the Vice President which announced the deatn of Commodore Vanderbilt some weeks since, with the object of depreciating THE VANDERBILT STOCKS, was identical with that of both letters purporting to come trom the Western Union ‘ielegraph oma and tne Toledo, Wabash and Western Railway yesterday. SHORTLY BEFORE FIVE O'CLOCK the Governing Committee sent for Detective Sampson, who arrived on the scene with a brother of the craft.in a few minutes. The mee\ing broke up shortly afterwares, and the detectives accom- panied two ol the Governing Committee, who ap- arently had important matters to communicate ity them. Alter the adjournment @ HERALD re- | ter called on Mr. J. B,. White, the Secretary of { Rie Governing Committee, and that gentleman | went nalvely over tie whole story, MR. J.B. WHINE'S STATEMENT. im up Mr. White's statement amounted to ‘The Governing Committee have discovered t most ingedivus fraud has been perpetrated on the New York Stock Exchange. They have satisfied themselves of this, and they will meet to- morrow afternoon (to-day), at three o’clock, and | then the grand circus will begin. Till them there is nothing, avsolutely nothing, d:ing,”” Aud Mr. White Went away with an air as if he had not been carryivg Western Union and 4a 'f he nad said a very pleasant thing indeed.

For some time past the Joint Committee ef the Commen Council, appeinted te investigate the a! fairs of the various departments to equalize sal- aries, have been eellecting informatien on the sub- ject, They have iound wat the salaries of the chief clerks of various courts are larger than their services would justify, and that the number of sub- ordinate clerks and court attendants could be re- duecd some filly per cent without detriment to the publi¢ business. The committee has also as- certained that the expenses of various depart- ments can be reduced, and that prompt action on the subject will result in sav- ing a very large amount to the city. But the committee's powers are merely of a sugges- tive or recommendatory character. In some in- stances the number of eimployés and the amounts paid tothem are fixed either by statutes, ordl- nances or beads of departments. “The committee held their dist session yesterday afternoon, and will continue to meet until prepared to report on the whole subject. The committee consists of Al- dermen McCatlerty (chairman), Ottendorfer and | Billings, and Assistant Aldermen Clancy, Kehoe | and Healy. Mr. Francis J. Tuomey was appointed clerk. In the course of the discussion it was decided to begin with the Dock Department, next with tne Department of Buildings, then with the Fire De- partinent.
