THE COMPTROLLER IN 4 BOL. | Mr. Green Tries His Hand at Sensa- tional Journalism. THE CUNNING OF MIS “MAN FRIDAY.” A Correspondence Considerably Enlight- ened by Facts. The Comptroller yesterday made another of his strategic efforts to influence pubilo opinion in his favor. How far he will be successful may be un- @erstood after a careful reading of both the in- terview and letters which follow, Two letters, emanating trom the Comptroller's office, were yes- terday sent in manifold to tne newspapers of the eity. The impression intended to be conveyed by | Mr. Green’s correspondence was that the School Feachers’ Association had rallied to his support, Bnd that, male and female, they were “with him to a man.” A paragraph in the editorial columns of the Benard on Sunday, May 16, had so roused Mr, Green’s ire that adout ten days afterward be sent | @ henchman, named Clark, to 4 Mr. Southerland, President of the School Teachers’ Association, witn a suggestion (as coming from Olark) that be ought to write a note to the Comptroiler, compit- menting the present school system, This, Clark puggested, would make Mr. Greeu jeel nappy amid | she worry and care of his oMctal duti ‘The un- Bospicious Mr, Southerland allowed himself to be “taken in,’ and yesterday, after a half month’s Meubation, the sensation, involving the poor school teachers, was horn, Upon the receipt of the letters a reporter was @espatched to find Mr. B. D, L. Southerland, The gentleman was found, alter some travelling, gnogly ensconced belind his desk im the public sonoo! building on Hudson street, The reporter entered the school room and stepped up to the de It was recess time. “Ig this Mr. B.D. L. Southerland, President of the School Teachers’ Association? asked the re porter. “That is may name,” was the reply. “Two manifold letters have been sent out, pre- sumably irom the Comptroller’s office, to all the Bewspapers. The first, whic I hand you, is a letter with your signature addressed to Mr. Green, ‘Will you tell me the cirenmstances of iis produc- tion?’ asked the reporter. “Certainly. Take this chair (pointing to one at his side) and 1’!! tell you all about it,” said Mr. | Bovtherland, “Tuat’s just exactly what I want,” said the re- portor. “Well, there was a small paragrapb appeared in | ® Sunday edition of the HeRaLp criticising Mr. Green’s course in relation tothe payment of the @ehoo! teachers’ salaries.” “Did you see tue article itself?” Te “Not at the time. I do not read Sunday news- papers,” was the answer. “How did you come to write this letter, then, to Mr. Green ?”’ inquired the reporter. | “Some days after the appearance of the article, | Idon’t know exactly how long, my attention was ealied to it.” | “By whom or im what manner? Dia Mr. Green ‘write you a letter asking you to whitewash bim Or smooth the matter over ?”’ askea the reporter. “No, he did not write me; but he sent Mr. Clark to see mé, and he (Clark) said that Mr. Green felt very mach annoyed about tne article. He (Ulart) asked me to write a letter to Mr. Green, in effect Smoothing the thing over; but I never dreamed that it was jor publication. | am very sure thatl aon’t want to beluggea into a fight with tne HERALD just to please Mr.Green.

COMPTROLLER GREEN ATTEMPTING TO DEFEAT | THE APPROPRIATION, To rue Error oF THE HERALD:—" Among the bills awaiting the Governor's signa- tore is one appropriating the sum of $575,000 to the Department of Parks, to be expended upon the improvement and completion of vhe several parks of the city, Comptrolier Green has persistently op- posed this bill from the beginning. He delayed its progress while in the Assembly. He succeeded in | having the Senate committes cnt down the amoant. And now that the Senate has passed the bill as originally proposed, he is at work bringing strong opposition to bear on the Gover- nor against it. In furtherance of this purpose he procured the signatures of business men, who address the Governor against any increase of the city debt. This is the only cry be can make, and all his opposition finds voice in the repeution of his statement of his policy, that of retrencnment, | a that can be called a policy which Js at all times the duty of an admivistrative ofMcer. With this argument he readily finds his signers of memo- riais against the expenditure of money among those Wio have suffered from the extravagance of the Ring, ana who fail to see that it 13 a juui- cious economy to expend money on works that niake 80 ample a return a8 do the amounts ex- pended on our pubite pleasure grounds.

He no longer controls the appuintment of its oMecers and clerks. He cannot procvre the dismii of those who are obnoxious to him. His share ol the lavor rouage has greatly dimin- ished. He finds that two of the tour Comuiissiou- ers will Dot ylela to his commands; hat they consider h's 1Mterlerence in the management of the «fairs of the department as suoversive of | discipline, obstructive to progress and eMciency, apd latal to a successfai and economical aiminis- tration, Agalost these two Commissioners, who Will not consent to made it a personal matter.

In tis way he expects that the park management will fali into disrepute and that comparisons will be made favorable to the management that he bas controlied more or less completely up to tue be- ginning ol this year, If Green succeeds in persuading the Governor to Withhoid ois signature irom this bill the Depart- ment of Parks will have no money ts year to go ou with the improvements in the parks, o! whicn | many are in progress, aud others imperanveiy demanded by the nee " the pie.

CIVIs. New York, Juae 4, 1875. MUNICIPAL NOTES. Mayor Wickham announces that he bas not yet bad an opportunity of examining the evidence and report of the Aldermen on the investigation against Comptroiier Green. All the documents were yesterday transmitted to His Honor by the Clerk of the Board of Aldermen, A caceful exam- ination of tne evidence will take considerabie time, Speedy action on thisimportant subject, however, is desired by the citizens. The old fight between Comptroller Green and Mayor Wickham, growing ont o/ signing warrants for empioyés of the Fire Department, was again renewed yesterday. One thousand individual warrants were sent over to the Mayor for bis sig- co Ww mature. They were sent back to tue Comptroiler’s omece. Former practice prescrived the signing vy companies; now the uunecessary jaoor seems to be thrown upoo Mayor Wickham o! signing each paper separately. in the meanwhile the firemen iu receiving their justly eurned salaries. rhe Tammany Generali Committee of the First district, Deauea by Mr. Muiler, have been at work during the past lew days compelling the removal of Senator Fox's iriends from some of the de: ments. They nave so far succeeded in ousting a janitor from Justice Quion’s court, and one of the street inspectors. su much for compliments of the “ins” of Tammany Hali to tne “outs.” The m1Xea condition of our city commissions, politically, has given an opportunity to leaders in Tatawany Hali to shove off responsibility for re- duction of laborers’ wages on somebody else's seouders. Tas manauvre was beautifully de- Veloped at the regular meeting of the Board of Aldermen on Thursday last. Poor laborers hang- ing around the (ity Hall yesterday seemed at sea wuere to trace the biawe for tneir grievances.

Commander inthe Quban Navy, Spanisn secret service man, <c., and an Inmate of Ludlow Street Jail since Decoration Day, ‘The frequently changing réles played by Norton, of captain, master, owner, agent, charterer, make it dimMeult to, decide Mm which cheracter he has goined most evil renown, Several of his fraudulent and protested dra{ts are now in this city, and suits will be probably brought against him on them, Insurance com- panies in France, Italy and England are also en- deavoring te recover moneys of which be has de- Irauded them. Special Treasury Agent Brackett seized a number of opals and other precious stones from Mrs. F, L, Norton, for alleged smuggling, when she arrived with her husband on the steamer City of Austin last Monday trom Koy Wear, THE CUBAN PRIVATEER PIONFER, James E, Ward & Co., of Wallstreet, who have jast arrested Norton, advancea him $2,000 on mortgage on the schooner Resolute, which vessel Norton afterward called the Pioneer, The money jor the purchase of this vessel came irom the | Cuban agent in this city, Mr. Mayorgo, The Pioneer idaded a cargo in this city for Jamaica, which was Guly delivered, and for which Norton received the freight, Norton then sailed for Port au Prince and there ran up the lone star flag of the Cuban Republic, mounted & gun, showed some ammunition he had on board and pretended to be a privateer, The Pioneer on ber return passage was seized by the United States revenue cutter Moccasin, off Block Island, and taken to Newport, R. L, where she was seized and sold by the United States authorities, as Norton doubtless intended she should be. Norton was subsequently arrested at the suit of J. E. Ward for obtaining muney under false pretences and locked up some fifty days, when he confessed judgment and was re leased. Me then entered the Spanish secret ser- vice, While so employed he engaged Simon Gratz, | a Philade!phian, to heip him, and obtained a ‘safe conduct pass’ for him from the Spanish Consul Uriarte to go out as a spy on the Cuban expedi- | tion which Gratz said was being fitted eut. Nor- ton and Gratz were in constant commuoication with Messrs. Craiy & Webster, the Spanish govern- ment lawyers in this city, NORTON'S RECENT SWINDLES, in March, 1874, Norton and one George McFar- land obtained possession of the yacht Julterte, formerly of tne New York Yacht Club, and saile in her from Stonington, Conn., for tne isiand of Bermuda. ‘Yhe Juliette arrived in Bermuda in due course, and two ladies joined the expeditten—viz., Mrs. Norton and Mrs, McFarland. Having taken in a fresh stock of provisions, they, with “pleasure the prow and beauty atthe helm,” started tor Curacoa, but put into St. Thomas. Leaving St. Thomas they proceeded to Curacoa, where the ‘ot the doat coppered and drew upon H. Clews ‘o. for $508, gola, at sixty days’ sight.

THE WRECKED BRIGANTINE FLORENCE. Their next operation was at St. Thomas, mucn dreaded by marine insurance companies, where they purcnased for a trifling sum the British orig- antine Florence, of eighty-lour tons burden, hail- ing irom Warbades, and which had been wrecked on Annegada oree!, near ‘Tortola, aud taken to St, Tnorfas by tbe wreci ers, yrton = ha her registered at Thomas in his wile’s name, Margaret Nort Here Norton chartered her to a firm in St. Thomas to joad a cargo of mahogany from 8%.

He assumed command of the vessel and proceded to St. Domingo City and found that the Florence had alreacy got her cargo on board and was ready to proceed to sea. Before she leit Norton instractea her captain to wait for nim off St. Thomas. The Surprise then loaded her cargo, and Norton received as an advance on bis Ireight the sum oO! $1,900. He then proceeded, not to Genoa, but to his rendezvous wito the Florence of pt. Thomas. ACTS OF BARRATRY. The vessels met and instead of proceeding to Genoa and Liverpool respectively tuey proceeded to Yarmouth, N. S., without loss of time.* They stated, upon their arrival there, that tuey had put in through stress of weather, and placed their Vessels in the hands of Caurchtll, Davis & Co., shiporokers. THE CARGO OF THE SURPRISE SOLD. After a few days tie respeciive cargoes were advertised ior sale on tne fictitious plea that tae cargo owed certain charges for general averag ‘The Cargo of the Surprise was actually sold, Nor ton purchasing upward of seven-eizutns of it. | Norton received about $7,700 for the mahogany. The next act of Norton was to have the vessel | transierrea to nis brother's name, Lamvert Nor- tou, Who appeared npon the scene at this time. ‘This arrangement was merely temporary, and she was ogain transferred to Olsen, a Dane ana mato of the vessel, and put under the Danish fag. rton then tade a coarter, in November last, with I. & E.

TANMANY’S TROUBLES, The ‘Short-Haired” Democrats Indig- nant at Their Treatment in the General Committee. “NOTHING CAN BE DONE” Mayor Wickham Declares Himself in Favor of the Ten-Hour System. The absorbing topic of conversation about town yesterday was the action of the temporary Chatr- man of the Tammany General Vommittes at the ‘The adherents of John Kelly aud Justice Quinn, the Chairman, were outspoken in their denunciation of the proceed- ing as @ bold and flagrant attempt at gagging. Justice Quinn himseif had nothing to say in de- fence of his action, except that the resolution should have, by the rules of the organization, gone to the Committee on Organization. About the decision of the General Oommittes, expressed in a most emphatic manner, to have the rules suspended he has nothing to soy. His strongest palliation for declaring the meeting ad- journed was, “We didn’t wanv to stay there all night.” The opinion expressed by the men who were among the 170 who voted to have the rules sus- pended and against the motion to adjourn 18 very emphatic. They say that if Judge Quinn thinks he is tocarn the nomination for the Sapertor Court Juageship by trampling On the rights of majorities and denying the representatives of the workingmen a voice in the deliberation of the party organiza- tion, he will find himself disappointed, Should he gain enough favor In the eyes of those who hope to rule the county convention to obtain the noml- nation, the woikingmen whose rights he has trampled upon will resent the insult at the polis. The outraged majority deciare that not more than twenty votes were cast for the motion of A. B, Cauldwell to refer the Clancy resolution to the Committee on Organization, The vote was un- mistakable, as the nays soanded like thunder, and no room 1s left for Judge Quinn to retreat from his positien by saying that it was @ mistake. Those who thiok that tne Judge will attempt any- thing of tbe kind are mjstaken, for in speaking of the matter he used these words :—‘'l was cool and knew just wnat I was doing,” He ts, he Bays, with the organization whetner he is a candidate or not. Tne rule unaer which Mr. Cauldwell made his motion to refer tne matter to the Committee on Organization was, according to Judge Quinn, passed for the purpose of anticipating just such an emergency as Was raised on Thursday night, THE WORKINGMEN. While the feelings of the representatives of the workingmen are those of indignation, the work- ingmen themselves are very sngry. A represen- tative of this class of feeling was heard holding NEW YORK HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 5, 1875—TRIPLE SHEET, forth yesterday afternoon within a few feet of the i Mayor’s ofiice, and just in front of the Common Council Chamber. He complaine4 that they had been forced during the winter to undergo priva- tions, owing to the scarcity of work, They had hoped that with the return of spring more work would be had. No sooner Is the work at band than they are thrust into the position they — occupied all the winter, Jf the party managers thougnt that the rank and file were to be nad by ne old rates just before clection they arecurn | ‘were mistuken.

TOO BUSY-TO DO THEIR DUTY. ‘ Fatiing of success with the Parg Commissioners the coumittee repaired \o the headquarte: f toe Police Com wissioners, in Muioerry street, Here they were informed that the Comme were too busy to see them, and they went away roud of the privilege oi receiving even such slight recognition. “NOTHING CAN BE DONE.” The next call was made at the Department of Docks, where the Aldermanic gentiemen were ceived by Commissioners Wales and Westerveit. loners | Alier a short and uosatsiactory consvitation | these gentiemen iniormed the commitice that nothing could be dour, and with this emphatic ine formaiion tue Aldermen left to go and sce the Fire Commissioners. most important department, that of Public Works, was reserved for tne last. When the com- mittee arrived (here they found Mr. Fitz Joon Porter 1» consalta.ton with Commissioners Dis- becker, Matseli, Stepvins, Wales and Dimmics. Commissioner Disvecker said that the meeting ot heads o. departments, of which Mayor Wickbum was Chuirman, had decided to reduce the wages by paying laborers ac tue rate of twenty cents an hour, and he conswlered the action thus taken as binuing on all Mayor Wicknam denies that he had aught to do witn tue proposition of paying at the rate of twenty cents an hour, notwithstanding that when he told the reporters of the acuon of the meeting he said, “We have decided,” &c. Not- withstanding that he denies the report that he Was the originator of the plan he 18 im favor of 1 now. He thioks if the laborers want $2 per day they should pave it by working tea hours at the new rate of compensation. This startling proposition will uo douvt arouse the trade unions, w whom Tammany bas had so muck trogole im the past. WHO REDUCED THE WAGES? This is a question which has been much can- vassed of late. It is known that Keily Is not favor- able the plan, bat 1s constraiued to support the action of “his’? Mayor, who ts now acknowledged to be tne prime mover in the matter. The reasons assigned for this actiou on Mis pert are bumerous and contradic- tory; but one whica nas come to be generally be- lieved Is that the object Was to allow a margin to ay fine salaries to the swaliow-talled members of the Manhattan Club, who are anxious for and in need of clerkships. Evervboty points to Wick- ham as the originator of the ruie. He denies tho imputation, but points to no one else. ACTION OF THE PARK COMMISSIONERS.

Mr. Martin offered a resolu- tion that each mechanic and laborer who gives notice that he prefers ten hours a day shall be en- rolied for such work, ond shall receive pay for the two acditional hours at toe rate per hour specified in the schedule of rates.
