16 NEW YORK HERALD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1875—WITH SUPPLEMENT. : CHE WHISKEY WRONGS. A Thunderbolt Falls Among the Chicago Distillers. SEVEN LARGE ESTABLISHMENTS SEIZED. The Government Shows a Keen Watch- fulness and Activity. Supervisor Mathews and (Collector Webster Direct the @nslaught, eee THR = CULPRITS COMPLETELY = SURPRISED. Cuicago, Dec, 29, 1875. ‘The grandest episode in the Chicago whiskey frauds eccurred to-day when Supervisor Mathews, with the tid of a dozen assistants, seized seven of the largest fistilleries and rectifying establishments in the tity. These houses are far larger than those previously seized, and the seizure made this afternoon marks anew epoch in this great whiskey conspiracy. {twas made purposely late in the day in order to pre- vent the afternoon papers from getting hold of it, as Volone] Mathews was afraid the seizure might not be tompleted before the distillers would have opportunity to act upon w formation and remove the whiskey from their premis The houses seized were the following:—William Cooper's, on the North Side, with a capacity of 1,200 bushels per day; Dickinson, Abel & Co.'s rectifying and distilling establishment, on the North Sule, s00 bushels per day; Chicago Alconol Works, on the west side, distilling and rectifying estabe Usnment, 550 bushels per day; South Branch Distilling Company, on the South Side, 800 bushels per day, and Keely & Kirwin’s rectifying house on the South Side, TRE PLAN OF STEZURE. These houses have been suspected of being in the “Ring” for the last six months, and Colonel Mathews has ba them under the closest observation for two months, A thorough diplomatist, Colonel Mathews kept the matter a profound secret, and the seizure was as underbolt from aclear sky. Colonel surprising Maihews left Milwaukee about three weeks ago to pre- pare at raid, and it was mapped out with great | practi |, So that all the houses should be seized ‘at the same time, and so that no body should be able to illers of the fate impending over was it arranged that ull the houses of each other at about warn the crooked dis them. So splend: were seized within ten minute. TE oO) Each revenue axent asgigned to make the with the following order: with instructions from the Su- rict you will please to proceed to L ORDERS. deputy collector who was izure was previously provided éeize for violation of the revenue laws the distillery of William Cooper (or other name) and appurtenances, You are authori: to call upon the ers on duty at the d y for any a need, in charge as custodians, giving them written or order of the Collector to that effect, secure s and papers and safes at once. ‘The custodians will be imstructed to permit nothing to be removed from the premises, The b in the tubs may be run off, care being taken that the product gues nto the cistern. Very n tfully, «J. D. WEBSTER, Collector,” General Webster himself had previously been forti- fied with the following order from Colonel Mathews:— “The developments of the last few days prove to my mind beyond question that the following Louses—to inson, Leach & Co., now Dickinson, Abel & 0.5 Ybicago Alcohol Works, the South Branch Dis- tillery Company and the distillery of Willam Cooper, together with the rectifying houses connected with each of said distilleries, were engaged in perpe- trating frauds against the internal revenue laws during the jatter and will thi part of 1874 and up to the 10th of | May, 1875, by removing distilled spirits without the | puyient of tax and by the reuse of warehouse and tax paid stamps. Yeu are thereiore respectfully requested to seize ail such houses and cause the arrest of the guilty parties connected therewith, as provided by the Statute in such cases, and report your action in the premises to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue and to this office, Revenue Agents Brooks and Somer. ville are in this city and will assist in te seizures un- der your directions. “a. C. MATHEWS, Supervisor.” CONSTERNATION OF THE WHISKEY MEN. Four distilling and three rectifying houses were seized. The revenue agents, who were assisted by the local deputy collectors, were instructed to descend apon the illicit stills at the same hour, and this was done. The distillers could scarcely believe their senses when quietly informed by them that their establishments were now seized, and that they must surrender all | their papers, &c. Dr. Rush aud George Pablman are the owners of the Alcohol Works and Harrison Powell is the proprietor of the South Branch, the names of the other implicated distillers veing already mentioned in naming the firms. Revenue Agent Somerville seized — Cooper Mr. Brooks took possession of the alcohol works, Deputy Collector Springer the distillery of Dickinson, Abel & Co., Deputy Collector Loughlin the south branch distillery, and Deputy Collector Campbell Keely & Kirwin’s, Atter expressing their utter amaz ment and terror, the distillers quickly surrendered all their property, their papers, cc, without making the slightest resistance whatever, The papers of most establishments were leit in their safes, and two | custodians remained in each place for the night and will be relieved this moraing by others, Kevenue Agent Somerville, finding no sale at Cooper's, was pru- dent enough to bring all the papers to the Coliector’s office. Mr. Brooks, finding that the tafe at the alcohol works could be opened by a combi- nation lock which he did not understand sealed the safe so ag to insure its not being tampered with. Super- vieor Mathews and Collector Web deputies and assistants in a carr did their duty. GETTING THE FACTS. Meanwhile, however, the local reporters and your correspondent having, by the unusual activity discern- able at the Custom House, got wind of someshing which they deemed extraordinary going on, had jumped into @ carriage and followed them. to elude them They followed them quickly and wit- nessed the entire seizures, or rather the scenes which ensued when the Collector and Supervisor arrived at the respective places. A large number of cattle were found at the various distilleries. At Cooper's, 680 bead; at Dickinson’s, 800 bead; at the Chicago Alco- hol Works, 800 head, && Colonel Mathews ays that’ the frauds committed by these firms were exactly of the same character as those exposed in St. Louis and Indianapolis; famely, in the reuse of tax-paid stamps and the ship- ping abd selling of distilled spirits yghout payment of taxes; and ip some instances the tule were returned and used ax often as three times. The frauds were very extensive, beginning in the latter part of 1672, and continuing ull May last, and Colonel Mathews | thinks that in these seven bouses they will approxi- mate $750,000. He says that while the St. Louis dis- Hilleries were seized on mere suspivions, these are seized on the CLEAR AND DOCUMENTARY PROOF, Some of the former employés of these distilleries tonfessed to Colonel Mathews as to the misdoings to which they had lent their aid, aud copies of the books were obtained stealthily, which, when compared with ster followed-their | ge to See that they | In | vain did the Supervisor and Collector endeavor | ment five barrels of rectified 1 owing were just about Jeaving the ‘ey? op a dray. ese the officers cap- tured, and the draymen were reluctantly compelled to put them back, AN ADDITIONAL SEIZURE has come to hght—that of the rectifying establishment of William Mathe This brings the number of the rec- Lifying houses that were seized to-day up to four and the total number of seizures up to eight. One of the the distillers whose establishment: was seized said, jocosely, “Well, we can’t buck against the United States kovernment,’* It 18 said to-night that some of the distillers who are | indicted haye purchased immunity trom punishment by lodging information against the distilleries that were seized to-day. Rusgell’s recent visit to Washington and the journeys of others there are naturally con nected with these sudden seizures. It is quite probable that the ditillers and the implicated gaugors and ¢* ore keepers may be arrested to-day and be brought belvre Commissioner Hoyne, THE BONE AND SINEW. THE PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW YORK LABORERS RESOLVE AGAINST A THIRD TELM, Trnong, Pa, Dec, 20, 1875, A large convention of laborers, composed of 132 dele- gates from various parts of the State and from New York and Connecticut, has been in session here for two days, Among the resolutions adopted was one declaring against apy subsidy being granted by Congress to the Texas Pacific Railroad, and requesting the government to give the Union and Central Paciile Railroad compa- nies a certain time to pay their indebtedness, and, failing in that, the government should assume pos- session of the roads; and also one providing for the appointment of a National Committee of thirty-seven to issue a call for a convention of representatives of labor and industry from all parts of the count to be held in Putsburg ‘n April next. Another resolution was adopted requesting the Pennsylvania Legislature to pass a law protecting the workingmen of the State from being drawn into private contracts by their employers, whereby nearty all their earnings are absorbed by store credit, &c Several reselutions tn the interest of the various labor organizations were adopted, together with the following:— Resolved, That we favor the election of the President di rectly by the people, and we are emplatically opposed to third term, SECRETARY OF STATE APPOINTMENTS. MR. BIGELOW'S SELECTION OF OFFICERS FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF THE SECRETARY OF STATE. Atuaxy, Dec. 29, 1875. Mr. Bigelow has signified his intention to make the following appointments in the office of Secretary of State, to take effect on the Ist of January :— Edgar K. Apgar, of Ithaca, Tompkins county, Deputy Secretary, vice George Franklin, resigned. Daniel S. Lamont, of Cortland, Cortland county, Chief Clerk, vice Calvin Willers, deceased, Samuel M. Clapp, of New York, corresponding clerk, vice Paul F. C, Tucker, resigned. C. H. Seatin, Director of the Census Bureau, Horace Moody, of St. Lawrence county, tirst clerk in the Census Bureau, vice Lamont, transferred, Mr. Bigelow was desirous of retaming the valuable services of Judge Franklin as Deputy Secretary of State, but this gentleman having made his plans many months since to resume the practice of his prof upon the expiration of Mr. Willers’ term of office, could uot be prevailed upon to change them. Mr. Apgar, who succeeds Judge Franklin, has held the position of Deputy State Treasurer during the two years, and was a favorite candidate for the office ot Treasurer before the late Democratic Convention, and possesses great familiarity with the work of the depart- ments of our State government. Mr. Lamont, who is selected for Chief Clerk, has had large experience as a clerk in several different pbs of the Assembly, and during the past year has held one of the most responsible positions in the State Ceusus Department, Mr. Clapp, who takes the position of Corresponding Clerk, is a member of the New York Bar, and for tour ars past has been the law partner of Mr, homas Cooper Campbell, member ot the last Assembly. In virtue of his protessional _ac- complistiments he will ve charged in addition to the customary duties of his office with the veritica- tion of papers filed for the organization of new corpora- tions which, under recent Jaws tacilitating the establish- ment of new corporations, has became one of the mo=t laborious and responsible duties of the Secretary’s oltice. Mr. Seaton, who will be charged with the direction | and superintendence of the digest of the State Census Department, was chief of one of the divisions under Hon, ¥. ‘J. Walker, the Superintendent of the Federal Census of 1870, Subsequent to the completion of that work he was for nearly four years Chief Clerk of » the — Pension Burean at Washington. He bas recently been employed us a Special Agent of the Pension Office in investigating doubtful claims from the Indian Territory, where | he has been occupied for several’ months past. He left that service only last week at Mr. Bigelow’s special solicitation to accept the direc- tion of the census work of this State now in progress. Mr. Moody, who succeeds. Mr. Lamont in the Census Bureau as first clerk, is a brother-in-law of the late Governor Silas Wright, and was his private secretary during Mr. Wright's entire administration as Governor. Mr. Bigelow contemplates no further changes in his office until such time as it shall appear to him from critical observation that the public service requires uber. CANAL INVESTIGATING COMMISSION, Aunaxy, Dec. 29, 1875. Nothing important enough to make public trans- before the Canal Investigating Commission y. Mr. Thayer was in the Auditor’s office, but not for the transaction of any public business, ‘The commission is engaged making up its accounts, The appropriation made to meet its expenses is not exhausted, notwithstanding the witness’ fees and the large number of stenographers, clerks, &c., it has been obliged to employ, and the very great amount of print- ing done, THE VACANT AUDITORSHIP. Aupaxy, Dec, 29, 1875. The vacancy in the office of Auditor of the Canal De. partment, caused by the suspension of Francis S, Thayer, has not yet been filled, Immediately after the euspension of Mr, Thayer yesterday afternoon the appointment was tendered by the ernor to Mr. Theodore Townsend, of Mr, Townsend was Collector of Internal Revenue uuder President Lincoln several years. He was a faithiul public officer, and has always been a republi- He is now Secretary of the Albany Insurance It is a matter of much regret that al- strongly urged to accept the office ot Auditor he was compelled to decline it on account of tue pressure of his private business, The position has since been tendered to a re- publican in New York city of peculiar fitness for the duties, This gentleman has also declined it on account of ill-health, ‘There are rumors ot other probable can- didates, and it s presumed that an appointment will be made in a day or two at the latest, “THE FALSE AND THE TRUE.” The lecture delivered last evening in the Cooper In- stitute by Victoria C. Woodbull, entitled “The False and the True,’’ @ lecture she has delivered in this city before, This fact, however, nor the inclement state of the weather did not prevent quite a large num- ber of persons from going to hear it, nearly every seat in the hall being occupied by eight o'clock. The audience was rather a mixed one, men largely predominating. It was a quarter past eight o’clock before the lecturess put in an appearance; but before she did a large black cat with great dignity of stride and a rather abashed look came upon the stage and began minutely to in- spect an umbrella and hood that lay upon a chair, prob- ably to see if they were orthodox. It is quite possible can. Company. though that some of the youngsters in the assemblage imagined the cat was “Vic? in a new | disguise, for they greeted “pussy” with hearty those of the parties to whom tne whiskey | was shipped, rendered the {raud apparent by thowing that packages with came samps had deen repeatedly shipped to different parties. There are other witnesses who will swear pe petration of these frauds, About] vely to the per- barrels of whis- key were seized at the samme time on these premises, snd the books seized contain the clearest proofs of the distillers’ guilt, The buildings and other property teized are worth about $1,000,000, The distillers will tol be arrested, Colonel Mathews says, uaul THE NEW GRAND JURY das met and indictea them. About twenty gaugers «ad storekecpers are also implicate tlso be indicted Bnd arrested. Some end storekeepers at these distilier the authorities, but the majority are deeply impli tated in the frauds. Swill additional seizures are ex- sected in a day or two ‘There are po wmly two distilleries left in Chicago that Jaw has not yet wuchea—the [liivois Distillery sod Shufelt & Co.'s, botn very large ones. Of course shey aleo stand a very good chance 0! being seized. (he seizures, as far as the public are concerned, are fll a profound secret, but w-morrow, when they will pe published, they will create the greatest sensation. fhe usual suits ior the condemnation of the property seized and for the recovery of the taxes in arrears will ve begun at once by the government, The men whose listilieries were seized wre very Tich, and us the reigures were too sudden to allow them to transier sheir property, aa the ovhers have done, considerabie money may be recovered. Of course, the revenue sfficiais are greatly delighted with (his brilliant coup Vdat, and congratulatory despatches have already been mcbanged between Secretary Bristow and Colouel Wathewa The Whiskey “Ring” are positively TERROR STHICKEN, to-night, baving been Julled into temporary ser by the recent apparent inactivity of the government, LATER DETAILS Some enrions incidénts oecurred at the seizure. Alen the revapve avenue enterad Nickens! extal inh v | applause, which drove her in terrible fright off the stage, and brought the lecturees herself to the front. Mra, Woodhull was neatly dressed in hiack, and wore a rose in ber hair and on ber bosom, She took her text from the Bible, ‘Know ye not that ye are the temple of God and that the spirit of God dwelleth myou, If any man defile the templo of God him shall God de- stroy,” &e, Itis needless to state that she did not mince | words during her discourse.

HANS VON BULOW. ‘There was quite a brilliant audience at Chickering Hall last night on the occasion of Dr, Von Bilow’s sec- ond concert during the holiday season, The pro- gramme was one of exceeding interest, comprising works rarely heard nowadays in a concert hall, Two there were that particularly attracted the atten- tion of the musical mind—a quintet by Mozart and another work of nearly the same kind in imstrumenial arrangement - by Rubinstein, In this concert it can be said with justice, les extrémes se (ouchent, for where can there be found in the wide realm of music euch @ difference in a quintet as be- tween Mozart and Rubinstein? The former, ever gemal, effective in bis very simplicity of treatment, and yet handling themes with the utmost delicacy; the other bold, impetuous and seeking for effect in the Strangest and most unexpected forms, In the Mozart quintet the executants were— Hans Von \Bilow, piano; Mr. Gortelmeyer, oboe; Mr. Trebis, clarionet; Mr, Gewalt, horn (cor Frangats), and Mr. Sohst, bassoon, In the Rubinstein quintet the same artists appeared, with the exception of Mr. Gor- telmeyer, the oboe being replaced by the flute, and Mr, Siedler undertaking the part allotted to the latter instrument, The Mozart quintet is known to the New York musical public so well that now it is ouly necessary to refer in detail to the work of tho great Russian pianist, It is numbered as opus 55 among the works of Rubinstein, and ig dedicated to Berthold Dameke, No better selection could have been made in chamber music to display the* wonderful powers of technique, breadth of style and fiery entha- siasm in works of the modern school of Hans Von Boilow. Rubinstein could not have wished for a more effective exponent on the piano of his remarkable work. The opening allegro, in which the piano frames’ the themes given by the other instruments !n the most effective manner, occasionally developing each motif, or leading to another theme in such a seductive manner that flute, clarionet, horn and bassoon seem to follow as did the Christian knights the sirens, in the gardens of Armida, There is not a dull pase age in this movement. The different ingye ments appear to interchange thoughts. OW it is the clarionet, with a pleading phrase; again the bassoon, with the same sentiment repeated |n another key. The flute discourses with the horn and the piano gives a brilliant coloring to all, The scherzo, in the second movement, abounds in difficulties for the players, and is in some of its phrases more compli- cated ‘than agreeable. ‘The third inovement, andante, begins with a lovely melody for the born, with @ quaint accompaniment on tho piano, and the theme is then transierred to the other Instruments and amplitied and enriched with effects so entirely charming that one would desire a repetition of the same without the suggestion af any claque. The concluding movement, allegro appassionata, 18 full of fire and effect. The pianist performed his work, and no easy one it was, magnificently, The clarionet and horn players must be particularly commended for their artistic playing. In the Mozart quintet the oboe was occasionally at fault, and the Vassoon, probably on account of the heat of the hull, became @ little sharp at times in tone. , It is very difil- cult for wind instruments in music of this kind to keep in tune with a piano. The great Prussian pianist played three works by Beethoven which would, in the manner in which he rendered them have formed a satisfactory programme by themselves, They were the Sonata in C minor, opus 13 (pathetique), the Rondo Capriccioso, opus 129 (pos- thumoous), and a8 an encore the Sonata quasi Fautasie in C sbarp minor, opus 27, No 2 Von Bulow’s rendering of the pathetique displayed more fecling and expression than we have heretofore found in him as anartst. The adagio cantabile was treated with the utmost tender- ness, and not an eftect of this rare tone poem was lost, There was probably a little too much of the boisterous spirit about the rondo in Mr. Von Bulow’s hands, The dainty little rondo and. capriceio, opus 129, which seems to represent Beethoven in one of his rarely good-humoted moods, was dashed off by | Von Biilow with an élan that brought back reminis- cences of Rubinstein, The ‘‘Moonlight’? sonata is not one of Von Bilow’s successful works in interpretation, There is too much materialism and too little poctry in his rendering of this work to make it acceptable. Miss Cronyn sang selections by Spohr, Mercadaute and Rabinstein. GERMAN OPERA. Wachtel appeared Inst night at the Academy of Music for the last time in the réle of Man- rico in “Il ‘Tfovatore.”” He was in ex- celllent voice and created the customary furore by his brillant rendering of the Mine. Clara Perl appeared as the revengetul gypsy, Azucena, and shared fully with Mr. Wachtel the artistic and’ popular honors of tho evening. The chorus and orchestra under Mr. Neuen- dorff were excelient. The rest of the cast do not call | for any special comment. MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES, A matinde performance of “Crucible” will be given | at the Park Theatre to-day, Saturday being New Year's Day the usual matinée will not take place. Mile, Rita will ve assisted in her concert at Chicker- ing Hall this evening by Mile. Heilbrun, Mr. F. W. Hoffman and Mr. Ferdinand Carri, This will be Mile, Rita’s first appearance in America, and she brings with her a fine reputation from Europe. George Fawcett Rowe was to have appeared on Mon. day at the Baltimore Academy of Music, but the com- pany engaged to support him by the temporary lessees was on a strike, The directors offered to pay them for their services, but the Thespians could not agree, and £0 the audience, instead of laughing, departed in sorrow and Micawber went to New Orlean ‘ THE SAMARITAN’ HOME. Last‘evening there was held in the Samaritan Home for Aged Men and Women, in West Twenty-second street, near Ninth avenue, a rectption in which many of the old Knickerbocker families gathered. The guests were received by Mrs, Jane Sykes, the matron, and were invited to inspect the working of the institu- tion. A musical entertainment of rare excellence was provided, aiter which the guests partook of an elegant Innch, Among those present wore Mra, James Mc- Vickar, Mrs: Henry A. Smythe, Mrs. H. P. Van Rens- selaer, Miss Edith MeVickar, Miss Leggitt, Mrs, SL. M. Barlow, Mrs. J. H. Van Amronge, Mrs. Bigelow, Mrs, Hosack and many other ladies, These ladies intend to give a reception on Monday, January 3, for the benefit of the institution, THE PEABODY HOME. An art reception was given yesterday afternoon and evening atthe residence of Mrs. Eliza Greato- rex, No 105 West Twenty-third street, tor the benefit of the Peabody Home, which takes in penniless worthy old women and is free and unsectariun, ‘Tjckets for the exhibition were sold at $1 each, and during the after. noon and evening about 300 persons visited the house. The principal attractions were old New York curiosities, portraits and costumes formerly belonging to Mme. Jumel, Avron Burr and the Morris and Morton families, Among the number were a court dress worn by the mother of Aaron Burr; another court dress worn by Mme. Jumel; a portrait of George Washington, painted by Archibald Robertson; a pa:nting of St, Paul's church, on wood taken from the old chancel; aset of blue china from the Cary-Ludiow House on the Battery; an ola bed curtain irom the saine mansion, and tapestry worked by the Empress Josephine, Several other objects of curiosity and vertu interesting to old New Yorkers were on exhibi- tion, ag well ag a number of pen and ink drawings illu trating Mrs. Greatorex’s book of “Old New York.’ During the evening the proceedings were eomewhat enlivened by an impromptu concert, in which Mme, Ragozia, Mme, Despard, Mr. GL.
