ATTEMPT 70 BRIBE CUSTOMS INSPECTOR (CONTINUED FROM EIGHTH PAGE.) Deputy Collector. At the Cunard dock, Hirsch’s ex- tremo anxiety and, mportunities to. Inspector Carroll that his baggage should be passed immediately, tixed the suspicion formed by Carroll upon the steamer, Hirsch capped the climax by asking Carroll to erase from his declaration the silk declared, giving a8 his reason, ‘I pays you instead of the Custom House,’’ Upon retusal, Hirsch then offered $30 to have an offic assigned who would expedite nis baggage. Carroll re- ported the facts to Deputy Surveyor Nichols, and it wos arranged that an ollicer should be detailed, who should make a searching investigation. Inspector neem was detailed and commenced so vigorously that within five minutes Hirsch raised his offer to Carroll to $100, and also made overtures to Inspector Eagan. Four trunks, filled with new and valuable goods, also # vahse containing a sealskin overcoat, brought by Hirsch for a friend named Iselin, who valued it ut $1,200, arenow in the seizure room at the Custom House, by order of Deputy Surveyor Nichols. In all Probability Mr. Hirsch will be arrested, and the case Will doubtless be treated as a test one by the Secretary of the Treasury. The goods have been scheduled 1n the Vustom House, THE COURTS.

A Week of Ineffective Work—A Possible Change of Engineers—Money Hardening—The Bank Reserves Down—The Gold Fluctuations, FIRMNESS OF GOVERNMENT BONDS. Wat Sraeer, Sunpar, Dec. 19, 1875, During the past week the commercial situation re- mained unchanged, save that dulness has become in- tensifed. The movements of crops trom tne interior show a material decrease, owing to the already large accumulation on the seaboard and at the principal shipping points, and to a decle in prices, The latter might be considered a favorable feature if the decline were sufficient to startan export movement, but so long as it only follows instead of leading the Liverpool | market the relative position is unaltered; meanwhile our storehouses are full. The merchants of this city have continued in a feeble sort of way to agitate the subject of railroad discrimination against New York. So far as we are informed the total raguit of the week's work has been a “‘committee’s”’ visit to Mayor Wickham and the presentation to him of a communication setting forth the grievances to which we are forced to submit, What the committee expect the Mayor to do, or what power he has in the matter, does not appear in the com- munication, The business on THE STOCK EXCHANGE has been exceedingly hght and uninteresting. The week has passed without the presentation of any of the “big things” which were promised, There have veen no arresjs tor “conspiracy” in the Northwest case, no lively times in Lake Shore or Pacific Mail and no noteworthy exhibition in Western Union, On the con- trary, after six days of “hard work,” prices generally are lower than they were one week ago. The favorable reports concerning increased business and net earnings which were put in circulation are apparently too highly colored to inspire confidence in the average profes- sional or occasional operator. It isa matter of fact, and it fully accounts for the prolonged apathy in stock circles, that the large holders ot speculative securities bought them without regard to present or prospective values, expecting to create a speculative excitement during which they could unload and take position on the other side again, as has been so frequently and successtully done before. Jt remains to be seen whether or not they have attempted to play the game once too often, It is also a fact that THK PRESENT HOLDERS OF STOCKS generally belong to the richer class of speculators. Henee it is that those who will not follow their example decline to sell stocks “‘short,’’ tor to do so under exist- ing circumstances would probably insure prompt punishment. Of the speculative stocks Western Union has remained about the steadiest, owing doubtless to the approaching dividend of2 per cent. There bas been much discussion concerning this security and its fu- ture, Some distrust is manifested on account of the large sales that have recently been made, and are sup- posed to be for old friends of the company, and from knowledge not yet made pubhe; but, as before stated, the price has been well maintained on sales of 67,600 shares for the week, Pacific Mail was extremely dull, 49,000 shares comprising the total business of the week at 401/ a 3934. Lake Shore shows up but 138,000 shares at prices ranging as follows :—62}; a 613; a 617% a 60% a 6134. The prediction of botter earnings and a divi- dend has been no less confident than it was during the previous week. Of tho probabilities of such an event, however, the readers of the Hxkatp will find a more reliable basis for an opinion in tho following official figures than in the gossip and rumors of Wall street. OFFICIAL FIGURES CONCERNING LAKE SHORE. ‘The charges upon the net earnings of the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern Railroad are as follows :— Annual interest on its own and guaranteed vonds, as per pago 21, report for 1874..... $2,864,680 Rent of the Mahoming Railroad. . 42,921 Annual dues to the sinking fund... esse 250,000 Dividend on $533,400 Michigan Southern guaranteed stock........ nda 58,350 Total annual liabilitios............ $8,210,951 The business of the company lor tho half of this year, January 1 to June go, was officially reported as tollows:— Gross earnings $6,041,060 Operating expenses . 5,465,000 476,000 1,4 Net earnings. ne 000 ‘The suin required tobe earned for the sil Mast MX MOREDS 18... ccceesreeeeearsees $1,784,951 CHICAGO AND NoRTUWZST. Northwest, after several attempts to pass the ‘40’ port, settled back and closed at 3824 a 3874, with sales of only 26,900 shares for the week. In the figntat “long range” over this stock, to which the pablic were invited a few days since, it wav telegraphed from Chi- cago that the President of the roud stated the com- pany had receptly made large remittances to this city. The sources of a portion of these remittances, as will be seen by reference to a quotation made elsewhere, was the favorable negotiation of the compa- ny’s own paper at a Chicago bank. ‘This story doesnot well correspond with the positive assertions made here that “the company does not owe a single dollar of floating debt."” Union Pacific was traded in only to the extent of 19,600 shares, and at decliaing prices, as follows:—TT3s a 75% a 76% aT4a 76075 The re- maindor of the list requires no comment further than that in its movements it bas sympathized more or less with the manipulation of the more active stocks. The decline on the last day of the week presented no feature different from those of the previous advance. It was probably as much the result of wirepulling, and ouly suggested the thought that perbaps at the meeting of “magnates”? which was held on Thursday afternoon and evening the running of the “machine” had been changed and totrusted to a more experienced en- gincer.

Nearly all of the interior exchanges are against New York, which, of course, prevents any return of currency. As yet there is no material advance in rates for first class mercantile paper, but otker qualities are almost unsal- able. THE SITUATION AT CHICAGO is thus expressively described by a local writer:— “There was a stronger feeling in the local loan market. ‘The demand for loans was greater and there was, con- sequently, an improvement in the tone of affurs. The packers have begun to put their paper on the market, and if their applications aggregate as much as they usu- ally do the surplus of the banks will be rapidly re- duced; in fact, the needs of the country banks are now So pressing that the surplus is not likely to last long. Money that was loaned the country banks thirty and sixty days ago, in the expectation that it would be coming back at this time, to be again lent elsew’. ~>, is replaced by new paper instead of payment. The amount of renewals by country banks is very large, aud there is also a lively demand for additional discounts, There | is not much call upon the banks from their elty cus- tomers, Considerable railroad paper bas been dis- counted, including some made by the company re- eently raided on Wall street, and which was discounted at very favorable rates, Rates of discount at the banks are 8 a 10 per cent to regular customers ; to independent occasional borrowers better rates are made for short loans, On the'strect busimess is quiet, Rates are 6 a 18 per cent.”? EXPORTS AND IMPORTS, ‘The foreign commerce of the port for the week was as follows:—General merchandise imports, including dry goods, $5,279,516; produce exports, $6,540,980, and specie exports, $414,750. The total imports of mer- chandise since January 1, this year, were $310,863,530, against $377,389,600 for the corresponding period in 1874 and $376,983,227 in 1873. The total exports of produce since January 1, this year, were $24,914,897, against $275,883, 783 in 1874, and $287,725,021 in 1873, The total exports of specie since January 1, this year, Were $07,889,031, against $58,381,463 in 1874, and $47,148,057 in 1873, RAILWAY AND STATE BONDS, Railway bonds, especially those of the older issues, have been in the main firm, and it is expected that they will be better early in the new year, when, as the result of interest payable by the government and various corporations, investors are compelled to seck a resting place for their additional capital. The fluc- tuations were neither wide nor noteworthy. In State bonds considerable activity was shown in Tennessees, lower prices having been established, owing to a lotter from Governor Porter stating that the Janu- ary interest would not be paid and that the first money received would be applied to the payment of the loans made to meet the interest of last January. North Carolina bonds remain in state quo, the provisions of the funding act of 1875 evidently not being acceptable to the bondholders. Louisiana consols are firm, having sold up to 61. Virginia consols are also stronger, and some domand is reported on foreign ac- count. The interest due on the secured sinking fund bonds of Arkansas, 1874, is to be paid on or before the Ast of January. GOVERNMENT LONDS, These were in fair request and freely supplied by abroad, and are reported as being eagerly sought by investors as the safest of all securities, Such a con- dition, in viow of the many defaults that have occurred here and in Europe on other kinds of bonds, is not un. natural, Speculators are said to be purchasing in an- ticipation of yet higher prices next year, DOMESTIC MARKETS.

A BROOKLYN MAN MAKES TWO ATTEMPTS TO POISON HIMSELY—‘ALL ABOUT A GIRL”-—DE- TERMINED ATTRMPT AT SUICIDE. ‘Trenton, N. J., Dec. 19, 1875, A singular dual attempt at suicide has just come to light in this city, iu which a painter named John Ros- ton is the central figure. On Wednesday night last he was found in the upper portion of the city suffering from an overdose of laudanum. Dr, Lalor, one of the city physicians, sent him to the Almshouse the follow- ing day. He talkeg coherently and behaved like one under 4 near approach to delirium tremens, Yester- day he seemed to be in a recovered condition, and he was discharged from that imstitution, In the after- noon he entered a lager beer saloon and called tor a glass of beer. When it was given to bim he took a white paper out of his pocket und poured its contents into the glass and then hurriedly swallowed the potation. The burkeeper, per- ceiviug his movements, suspected he was about to poison himself, and, running toward him, endeavored to prevent his swallowing the draught.’ But ho was too late, The mixture proved to be arsenic. He was conveyed to the City Prison, where an antidote was adinimistered, On being questioned in relation to the affair he said that he had taken an oumce of laudanum on Wednesday, and finding it did not have the desired eflect he had procured another v Ile also took sone kind of acid, “I have,’’ said he, “taken two ounces: of laudanum, acid and arsenic, and here L am a living man yet.

THE BROOKLYN SUITS, ‘ aoe, La) WEAKENING OF THE TAXPAYERS’ ASSOCIATION— VIEWS OF COMMISSIONER STRANAHAN—KINGS- LEY AN IDEAL YANKEE, AMBIZIOUS, BUT UN- SELPISH. No move has @s yet been made by the lawyers en- gaged in the prosecution of the Brooklyn Ring suits Members of the Taxpayers’ Association have been tell ing the reporters for over a week past that the papers | were ready from day to day, but these long expected | \ | papers nave not been forthcoming, and there are nu- merous rumors afloat in Brooklyn that the prosecution has bucked down, that Dir, Parsons has you disgusted with tho lack of earnestness ov the part of the men who have been imstrumental in rawing the cry of fraud against the public contractors, that the money to carry ou the prosecution hus not been forthcoming, and that the evidence against the men charged with | Jraud is too weak to warrant a serious course of pro. ceedings in a court of justice, if Mr, Parsous tails to move the forthcoming week in the matter of bringing tho so-called thieves to justice, the only motive that can be advanced for his hesitancy is the one substan. tially conveyed im the preceding statement, that the | membors of the Taxpayers’ Associaticn have repented of their resolve and tuiled to subscribe the necessary m | expenses for the contemplated undertaking, LEX TALIONIS. Ithas been ascertained by a Henao reporter that Serious steps are already on foot to institute pro- cvedings against several members of the Taxpayers? As- sociation for conspiracy. The counsel for the defend- ants in the suit which Mtr, Parsous bas on hand will vasures, as one of the num- ber expressed Lumself, “to bring the pretended re- formers to their senses.” Preparations are being made Ww urrest several gentlemen for conspiracy under the Jaw, article 3 Revised Statutes, section $, paragraph 714, which says:— If two oF more persons shall couspire either to commit any offence or talvely und muliciously to indet tor any offe or tw procure another €o be charged or arrested for any sue! offence, of fulwely to move or maintain any sult, they stall be deemed guilty uf « miludemeanor, which Is puiishable by fine or imprisonment, &e, - ‘The names of those who, it is said, are to_ be indicted for libel are us follows:—Demas Burnes, Harvey Far- ringtun, Sumucl Hutcheson, Samuel W. Booth, Colonel A. ©, Davis and BE. 'l, Backhouse, These gentiemen are to be proceeded agaist for ‘conspiracy’ and detama- tion of character, The condition of the Stute suits is ‘thus considerably altered. The defendants are eager tor the fray, and they invite their opponents to make | un ueSault, but the latter party seems to weaken in the knees, When Mr. Parsons, in conjunction with Judge Van Cott, curried on the prosecution of the State against Judge Barnard he entertained a well-founded hope that the Legislature would handsomely reimburse him tor his services alter he secured a conviction. He put in a Dill tor $6,000, aud Judge Van Gott (a more wily law- yer) lor $10,000, The Legislature concluded to déduct jorty per c.nt trom the bills, and the result was that Judge Van Cott went away a little put out, but very happy, nevertheless, with the sum of $6,000 in his pockel, while poor Parsons, who did all the hard work and spent money treely in clerk hire, &., had to ve content with about $3,900. ‘This lett him a very small margin, and he naturally complained that the State Was a poor master to work tor. Now, Mr. Par- song, like the child who realizes the burn, does not care to fo into this case until he is satisied that he is to be remunerated for his great trouble. WHAT A LEADING BROOKLYNITE SAYS, Mr. J. 8. 'l. Stranahan is oue of the most prominent citizens of Brooklyn, He ts president of, the old Board of Commissioners of Prospect wk. Heis also a di- rector of the Kast River Bridge Company, the president of the Auantic Dock Company and one of the largest tax- payers in the city of Brooklyn. He is a large-hearted, high-spirited citizen, aud the existence of Prospect Park, the rival of our Ceutral Park, may be attributed ina great measure to his energy aud persistency, A Hexaup reporter called on Mr. Stranahan yesterday, as the one inost likely to know the merits of the case now beetbere between the Taxpayers’ Association and the rooklyn Ring, alleged to have stolen inillivns of dol- lars trom the treasury ot the city, “Mr, Stranahan, what are the real merits of the tax- payers’ crusade against the Ring?” “Lreally do not know what the Taxpayers’ Association possess m the matter of charges against the gentlemen identified with the several enterprises that have been started of late years in Brooklyn, but, I think, what- ever they may be, there must be some mlsappreben- sion,’ “In what regard?” “Lunderstund Mr. Kingsley is to be indicted on a count of exacting undue payments for the work he has performed, His work will bear scrutiny and the city of Brooklyn should bonor him for what he has done,’ MR. KINGSLKY’S CHARACTER, “What is the accepted character of Mr. Kingsley in Brooklyn y”? “With the exception of the small knot of people con- stituting the Taxpayers’ Association Mr. Kingsley is He is u modest, retir- display of ability, but he bas got all the organizing and executive ability of a Napoleon; and yet ‘al he does is, as I know, more out of u bealthy ambition to be dis- tinguished in his profession than from any motive of mouey. He is ove of the class who illustrate American enterprise. yet he has done more in a legitimate way, as a con- tractor, than avy man [have ever known, He is as gentle and approachable as a child, and ho never was Known to doa mean act us far as anybody, and as L myself, have any knowledge.” “Do you mean to say, Mr. Stranahan, that thero is no foundation tor all this ery of frau “Lam not prepared to say as to what may have been done. No doubt, corrupt practices have prevailed in many departments of the city government, just as they exist everywhere else, bus these are inatters that should properly come ‘under the jurisdiction of local authority, When the State is invoked to prosecute olfences that come properly under local authority 1 think it is a bad precedent ww institute’? “What hus Mr. Kingsley doue ¥"? “Kingsley is not that kind of man the papers repre- sent him ito be. Wiy, only tor Kingsley there never would be an Eust River Bridge. He gave his days aud nights to that project. He sacriliced time, money, health and everything in the prosecution of this You know the olt saying, ‘A | | two P. prophet is nothing in his own country.’ To my mind Mr. Kingsley is one of the remarkable men of our time. He illustrates as tully as any American L ever knew the ideal progressive Yankee who gives no thought to the money he makes, but ail thought to the glory it will bring’ bis country.” “What has been the conduct of the East River Bridger"? is “Mr, Kingsley’s conduct of the East River Bridge has met with the unanimous approval of all the directors, in years io come it will be known what days and nights of anxious thoughts Le devoted to that under- taking. He ts one of the most unselfish of men, and he would rather be known as the one who accomplished the great undertaking of building a bridge to unite Long Istand with Mauhattan than be the owner of a gold mine or the conqueror of an empire, the secondary item in his calculations. He is am- bitious, but not with any unworthy purpose." HE TAXPAYERS’ ASSOCIATION. An informal meeting of gentlemen connected with the Brooklyn Taxpayers’ Association took place on Saturday evening, at the residence of Mr, E. Tl. Backhouse, on Carlton avenue. The gathering was held for the pur- pose of discussing the matter of the proposed suits just th ures looking to # more successtul method of so- iting subscriptions, Amokg those present were Messrs.
