8 THE CHICAGO CROOKED, Another Important Advance of the Gov- ernment Forces Anticipated. NAL ARRESTS TO BE MADE —_——<. The Tricks and the Manners by Which the | Swindles Were Perpetrated, ADDITIO ON THE SHADOW OF THE DETECHIVES, Speculatic he Disposition | of the C nal Steal. PREPARATIONS FOR THE DEFENCE. Cmicaco, Jan. 2, 1876. The ar is still heavy with the portents of another ttorw of impending arrests and additional seizures, Only this evening Collector Webster said to your cor- respondent, with a shake of the head that was meant to be very significant, “You'd better not leave this week; we are going to have some lively music, ye.” The Grand Jury which meets Tuesday will not only Indie the distillers whose establishments were seized 4p the last grand raid, the politicians arrested on Fri- May, but, as it is genera eved, some O7RER PROMINENT Minty, the revenue clerk, slamps fora mere song to the Bull at large, Some imteresting details of the manner im which the frauds were carried on have come to who sold rectifiers’ Hight, For instance, Cooper's d ery, Or, as it is gen- erally calied, F x ‘oe THE BLACK NAWK, began mies ng in crooked whiskey in 1872, its products being taken by the rectifying houses of Mason & Crosby and Gholsen & Bastman up to May of lastyear. By tollusion of the storekeeper and gauger the whiskey was sent to the rectifier, who TOOK OVP TER STAMPS and sent them back, the storekeeper and gauger put- hing them on a new lotagain, In thie manner they d\ uty three or four times, the last lot being reported as Straight. Thus about one-third would be straight and Ihe remainder would pay no tax at all. This whiskey ihe rectifier would take at #0 much per barre! and gen- srally dikplose of it in New York. THR STRALINGS tm the case of this one distillery were abopt seventy rents a gallon, or 120 barrels of forty-two gallons per | ‘week, amounting to $3,528, ANOTHER MODE practised by another distiller was to gange bis barrels Sorty-two gallons when they would hold forty-six. These were put into bonded warehouse as forty-two and Defore shipment were filled up, the distiller thereby gatping a diference of four gallons per barrel, ery ANOTHER METHOD war the shipment of a large amount of distilled water from the distillery to the rectifiers, a certain per- ventage of the barrels being filled with whiskey, Supervisor Mathews will return to the city to-mor- row moruing. The information against the seized dis- tilleries will be filed to-day in conri to effect their for- folture te the government. ANXIOUS FEELING OVER THE PROBABLE COURSE OF BRISTOW—-WHAT HAS BECOME OF THE PROCEEDS OF THE CHICAGO STRAL—THE DIs- TILLERS ORGANIZED FOR LEFENCE. Cmeaco, Dec, 29, 1875. If a wan at this particular time knew exactly what Becretary Bristow is going to do, and would propose to tel] it pnblicly at $5 per head admission, he could ll ihe biggest ball or theatre any night in Chicago. It is st this which i* purging everybedy bere—What wiil ristow do? Will he enter into a compromise with the Ring, or will be send them all to Joliet? I bave al- yeady, in my letter of yesterday, expressed the opin- 4on—which is that of the best informed people here ani | wf those supposed to be in the coniidence of the gov- | prnment—that bot few compromises will be entered spon, and that there will be a disposition ko carry ont the law rigorously. This opinion was vtirengthened to-day by conversations with the leading viiciale of the prosecution. The general response to the question whether they thought all these men would yeally go to State Prison was that some of them un- | toubtedly would, altho ugh many who frankly disclosed ali they kp of who were among the less guilty ones, might get off with a fine and 4 brie: imprisonment. Boi let me say right here that I do not attach much woportance to the views of the local officials, for there is every indication to believe that not one of them has vecn taken inio Bristow’s confidence. Bristow just Yow Ie tho GREAT AMERICAN SPHINX, : ond it is & mysterious, unfathomable Sphinx, which ihe “crooked” distillers do not like at all, They all know tbat it is be, and not the loca) offictals, who will fecide upon their fate. that the government—and it te bine to remember that she government in this shutk snes, tow—will have entirely | fay, #0 fi are of punishment to be doled out te the i ctey parties in concerned.

Common sense any one that while these extensive on here, while the crooked dis- tiller “saved” seventy cents per gallon—that was the amount of tne steal—there was ne field here for the honest distiller. The latter could not possibly have competed with his dishonest rivals, and jt is thus sensibly argued that the very fact of a distillery irm doing business daring that period and continuing it proaperously proves tbat they aiso must have been in the Ring. “‘In the face of snch odds,’ remarked ap honest distiller to me, who bas only lately entered the business in Chicago, ‘no bonest distilicr could exist, and if he did ny ‘and did flourish, as they all id, 18 only proves that they made crooked whiskey frauds went Saredinatens we have the extraordinary spoctacle oft fome of these distillers untouched while others are indicted, The explanation, vo doubt, is found in the remarka above quoted.

Speaking of the Ring, this is a word which is very generally used, but which has bitherto never been ac- curately defined as applied to the combination of Chicago whiskey defrauders, Was there a Ring? Did these men act with mutual knowledge of each other's uilt and in pursuance of a programine of conspiracy distinctiy agreed upon? Or did each act ‘on bis own hook’ with simply an assumption of the rascality of the others? This isan important and highly interesting question, which has never been settled. Some exceed- ingly well informed. persons—among others an ex- revenue collector of Chicago—have stoutly maintained re gee that there wus, properly speaking, no Ring at all. “Look at !t yourself,” said he; ‘was there any ne- cessity fora Ring? In New York merchants cheat the government of millions and millions every year through undervaluations, &c, The thing is regularly and eyste- matically dove; but nobody supposes that there is a Ring, that there 1s an agreement among these mer- chants to cheat the government. All you can eay is that each one swindles it with the tacit supposition that the others are doing the fame thing, but that is all. And here it was justthe same, Each man acted indepen- dently of the other, and while there were a great many little Tings, as bet ‘@ distiller and his gaugers and storekeepers, for instance, I am positively convinced that there was no Ring as between all the whiskey men, Others, however, are of a different opinion, They eay that there undoubtedly was a distinct and CLEARLY DEFINED AGRERMENT among the distillers and rectifiers, and that if there had not been they could not have warded off the final crash so long. No matter if there was no Ring pre- viously, there is no doubt whatever in the mind of any- body that there is one now. Adversity brings not only strange bedfellows together, but makes it desirable to | bave astate counsel, and when these connsel have to | ‘De paid enormous fees it is well to have many purses to draw upon. Look at this array of counsel generally understood to be engaged by the alleged conspirators. Sidney Smith, Leonard Swift, Juage Beckwith (who, 48 consulting counsel, is pradently kept in the back- ground), Judge Gowdy and RK. G. Asay, That the in- dicted men hold nightly meetings and are in regular and tbat all have agreed to {fol- line of defence, cannot now be questioned. The Ring is strong’ financially and legally, and even if it be only of recent date it now stands in Chicago as a rather imposing organization. For, while these men are indubitably pretty well inghtened by Bristow’s flerce attitude, they instinct- ively feci that there’s many & slip between the cup and the lip, mere especially in American courts of law, and when one nas a goodly pile of money at one’s back. Of course the storekeepers and gaugers who are among the indicted are alinost all poor men, but the rich distillers, as whose catspaws they figured, ‘will unquestionably de- fray the costs of their defence. Two or three of these gangers storekeepers undoubtedly made considerably more money than tho rest, being vastly more in the confidence of the distillers, but they were all very extravagant, launched immediately into fast horses, fast women, &c., and lost their ill-gotten spoils. As to Roelle, Junker, Russell, ex-Postmaster Eastman ana the other leading distillers who have been indicted, they are either mch themselves or have, through infla- ential social, political or business ties, friendly money power at their back. One of the most DISCOURAGING FRATURES of this business to the prosecution has been the skill with which these men have been able to elude the vigi- Jan of the jaw and to dispose of their property im @ manner that, while they can still control it for pt of defence, the government cannot possibly lay hold of i, Very cleverly bas this been done, and several of these men who drive this very be! a cent teams aud give cham; @ suppers to their companions are, as far as the law is concerned, pespare, penniless outcasts.

The prosecuting off- pialg have candidly admitied to me that this Grand Yury will be very sharply waiched, as euch efforts would otherwise certainly be made, and the vast amounte of money at the ditporal of some of bese hitherto unindicted members of the Ring would Mein qt’ these efforts very probable. It be stated, however, that the pew Grand Jury. ae i have been able bo ascertain, are a set of ra men, some of them retired merchants and to do farmers, and, unless the money power proves we overwhelming, it seems bnt jurt toward them to « that they will do their duty.

The government counsel, however, will combat these efforts at delay quite as persistently as they will be arged. Governor Ayer, Mesers. Bouielle, Wirt and Dexter, who have been retained as special counsel for these cages, and the new United States District Attor- ney Bangs, are all eager to try the cases, if they are wo be tried at ail, in the precent full flush of the government vietories and while the prosecution has all the benefit of the éclat produced by the previous convictions ob- tained tn St. Louis. bg the way, these gentlemen, although they will be equally wei! paid as Brodhead Dyer in St. Louis, are naturally rat worry that y hav oak ios im St. Louis, which would attract to jJegal efforts the widest attention. The Babcock case, which will be tried in St. Louis at the very same time when the trials of the Chicago distillers are in progress, will completely dwarf them in significance, and it is generally acknowledged that the conviction of the President's private secretary would even bere excite a profounder sensation than that of all the fity indicted distillers’ rectifiers, gaugers and storekeepers of Chicago put together, THE SUPPOSED COMPROMISES. ‘Of course the statements of the supposed compro- mises between the accused parties and the government continue to be daily made and contradicted, and there i$ # ceaseless batch of sensations, rumors, &c., which tends to keep the public excitement at fever heat.

THE ASTOUNDING DISCOVERY WHICH MR. BABBITT MADE AFTER YEARS OF CONFIDENCE-—-LOSS ABOUT SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOL- Labs. One of the most extensive cases of embezzlement that bas oceurred in the commercial circles of New York for years has just come to light The amount stolen ageregates, as fur as known, nearly $500,000, and before the investigation is completed it !s not improb- able that $200,000 more will be added to the sum. The victim of this gigantic robery is Benjamin T. Babbitt, of No, 69 Washington street, the widely known soap manufacturer, and the person at whose door the guilt is laid, by evidence apparently incontro vertible, 18 a former trusted employé, by name Charles R Beckwith. The robberies cover a period of 2 yeart—from 1868, the date of Beckwith's employment, to 1873, the year of his dismissal from the establish- ment. Yesterday afternoon Beckwith was arrested and to-day he will be fully committed for the felony. The history of the case is replete with instances of unbounded confidence 1a the integrity of bis dishonest clerk on the part of Mr. Babbitt, and a depth of cun_ ning avd knavory 0 on the part of Beckwith seldom met with, In the carrying on of Ais extensive business Mr. Babbitt had no partner, Dut felegated to Beckwith, who held the position of chi bookkeeper and cashier, powers and privileges almost as great as those enjoyed by himself in the management of the business. Beckwith super- tmtended the filling of all large orders, engaged and dis- charged employés, kept the books of the firm and at- tended to the payment of all bills, He was prompt, active and energetic in the discharge of his maltitudi- nous duties, and was regarded by Mr. Babbitt as an in- valuable man. His compensation was more than gen. erous, and he enjoyed not only the confidence of bis ewployer In a basipgss point bade but also bis social esteem, Mr, Babbilt ra BARELY OVERLOOKED HIS BOOKS. On occasions when inquiry into the extent of busness became nécessary, the verbal information furnished by Beckwith upon the point asked about was sufficient, Frequently Mr, Babbitt, in the extent of his trust, permitted the affairs of his establishment to go on for months at a time, relying solely upon Beckwith. Once he went to Europe and was gone several months, pay- ing no attention to bis business other than receiving Ap occasional letter from Beckwith announcing that al! was going on well. This state of things continued for a period of over four years, At last aday came when Mr, Babbitt had his attention called, more by accident than anything | else, to asmall irregularity in the payment of a bill ‘Tho evidence of the irregularity was almost conclusive, but still he hesitated, irmly believing in the honesty of his trusted heatenant, and tried to account for the discrepancy on the ground of carelessness. Shortly afterward another irregularity cropped ont, and Mr. Babbitt, now suspicious, determined to | make an investigation, He then discovered that Beck- with had been dishonest, but he never dreamed of the extent of that dishonesty. He thought that a few hun- dred dollars at the most would cover it. Unwilling to retain in his employ one who had proved unworthy, Mr. Babbitt discharged him. This was in March, 1873. | Mr. Babbitt after this heard no more from Beckwith, | and soon his petty defaleation was forgotten. j REOYENING THR CASE, A period of over two years passed befora recollec- tions of Beckwith were revived, In the early part of | last November Detective Timothy Golden, formerly | attached to the Central Ofllce squad, but at that time doing patrol duty in the Sixth precinct, learned of the | defaleation, and trom what he heard in relation to it | became satisfied that the sum stolen was much larger than posed, He acquainted Mr, Babbitt of bis suspicions, and that gentleman’ concluded ean thorongh investigation made, He first em- | joyed two experts to go over the cash account | is firm for the eighteen months immediately pre- | weather the dismissal of Beckwith and compare the re- mediately following the dismissal, A STARTLING DIFPERENCE WAS FOUND | toexjst. The latter period showed an increase over | the former of the large sum of $763,000. No possible | variation in the business of the establishment for the | two periods could account for this mammoth differ- ence. A research into the business ef both periods | showed approximatety that a difference of one-fifth the sum in the natural order of things was @ large esti- mate. | His eyes now thoroughly opened to the enormity of his former clerk’s dishonesty, Mr. Babbitt ordered the experts to make a minute and extended investigation covering the entire period of Beckwith’s employment, Their work revealed a system of embezzling rarely equalled. His modus operandi was as follows:—When payment for stock purchased became due Beckwith would draw a check payable to himself fora larger sum that the amount due, Owing to the frequent absence from his business Mr, Babbitt was accustomed to sign the checks in blank. Beckwith would draw the money from the bank and pay over to the creditor the proper amount, pocketing the bal- auce himself. He would then charge the amount drawn so his cash account might balance with his bank ac- count, and at his leisure be would further cover his tracks by altering the bill presented by the creditor irom its true amount to the sum drawn from the bank, When this latter course was inexpedient, for fear of detection, he would make outa new bill, The increase was regulated 1» & methodical manner, ten per cent being the amount generaily added, \ AS an instance, one bill calling for $5,274 had been altered to $6,774, an increase of ‘$500. On larger bills a higher increase would be made, while on bills calling for small sums the pilfering was small, This system the experts have found existing from shortly after bis engagement with the firm until the day of his dis. | missal. Thus far they have completed in their investi- gations a period covering less thaa three years, and the amount found stolen in that time is over $400,000. A period of nearly two years is yet before them, and it is believed, judging from what bas already been un- earthed, that Feet esas wre 404 will reach” F755, oa. Shortly alter the experts ‘had commenced their labors, which was in the carly part of last November, Mr. Babbitt placed the case in the hands of bis counsel, Messrs. Beach and Brown. On November 8 the coun- sel sent a communication to the Board of Police, re- questing that Detective Golden, who was tl n doing post duty tn the Sixth ward, be detailed for thirty days f | to work up the case, Tho request was granted and the detective at once took the matter in charge, under tee | immediate directions of Superintendent Walling, who gave the case his personal attention. A warrant for the arrest of Beckwith based upon | Babbitt’s aflidavit was granted by Jusiice Bixby aud | pieced in the hands of the officer, { The hier ws ore RBegkwith Were unknown, but it Was believed that Still in the city.

It was on the top floor of No, 998 Sixth avenue, where be was living with his wife. For ‘twenty days the officer watched the premises, hiring for the purpose a room in a house on the opposite side | of the street, but his man never peared, Tired of waiting and almost believing that | Beckwith was not there at all, tho detective | concluded yesterday to adopt a new course and enter | the house, even at the risk of giving the alarm th: ugh | his wife in case he was elsewhere.
