10 “THR NERY “CROOKED” Testimony | eago Grand Jury. Intense Secrecy . Enj from Washington. | arts + i | GIST OF THE EVIDENCE. The Principal Characters Still in the Background, LESSCN OF MINTY'S ESCAPE. Reasons of the Government for Leniency Toward the Distillers | Curcaco, Jan, 81876, | Owing to the absence of District Attorney Bangs, | who was expected back this morning but did not reach | bere until after the Grand Jury he urned, none of | the important witnesses were brought before the latter | lo-day. Messrs. Junk Joleen waited all day to be talled, but were not, 4 the other “‘squealers,” as whey are called—Parker, Mason and Roelle—were also ready to tell all they knew, As District Attorney | ange bax especial charge of these cases {t was deemed | dest to defer the laying of the important testimony | before the Grand Jury until bis return, Meanwhile } two of the minor witnesses of the government ap- | peared before them, Fredericks and Miller, the owners of the Lake Shore distillery, whicb, although small, was ene of ihe most “crooked” of all the “crooked” tstablishments in Chicago, Both Miller and Frederick, | who paid taxes on about half the whiskey they sold, | are uncer indictment, but have turned states’ evidence, | The mnan besides the jurors and witnesses present | ‘&m the room was Mr. Wirt Dexter, one of the special | tounsel engaged by the government for these whiskey | tases. PPPORTS AT MYSTERY. Never in the history of Grand Juries was there rrenter care taken to exclude representatives of the | press, First, they were banished from the door, and | sfierwards even from the hall leading tothe door. The | most comprehensive precautions were taken to pre- | rent anybody from obtaining an inkling of the testie mony, and still the Hrratp will be acgurately | @iormed of its general drift as given by these iwo witnesses. They gave a history of | the Chicago Ring from its inception, showing that | ihey were decoyed into it by corrupt officials, at the | ead of which stood Hesing and Rehm, who promised | to assign to their distillery conniving storekeepers and | guugers on condition that they would divide the spoils. | THE RING MASTERS, From their evidence it appears that Hesing and | Rebm, through their supposed ability to control the votes of Chicago, dictated the assignment of these petty officials to whatever distillery they pleased. Ostensi- bly Collector Irwin, who is now dead, made these as- | gnments, but Hesing and Rehm, as it was generally understood by all the “crooked” — distillers, controlied them, Tt also appears that large aus of money were paid by the wit nesses to Hesing and Rehm, they understanding | tbat these two gentlemen had to divide with Miller and | other prominent city officials, with a weil known Con- gressman—whose name need not be mentioned until he is also indicted—and with other influential persons at | Washington. They also gave some details showing the mode of making these payments, SUBTLE | WAYS. Both Hesing and Relim, it seems, were too cauti to take checks, and imsisied in evers upon receiv. ing some of Mr. Spinner’s currency. The mode ot windling the government they also confessed frankly, but nothing new is to be said on this score, as it has Deen repeatedly explained in the Heraup, According to these witnesses the money paid to Hesing, Rehm and) @&mpany was always charged to the ex- pense account of the distillery, in pursuance of ap agreement made to thatelfect." ' The government has the bank accounts of these gentlemen, which cor- respond eo closely to these large entries for expenses that the accounts received by them can be exacuy ascertained. The above information, although it comes from no government official, is, nevertheless, trust- worthy. It seems (hat the most stringent command das gone forth from Washington to all counected with | the prosecution not to breath a syllable of the tes- fimony given before the Grand Jury to mortal ear. Even to-day telegraphic injunctions were received to that effect, ‘THE ESCAPE OF MINTY. \ The reason for this extraordinary secrecy is this:—It is feared that if Hesing. Rehm ond | Company learn how overwhelming is the evi- | dence against them they may escape and | forfeit their. bonds, They do not dream at pres- | ent of the sirength of evidence that can and will | be brought against them. How neces: government to preserve the strictest 8) the escape of Minty, which, it appears, is entirely | owrng to the indiscretion or carelessness of a gentie- man attached to the District Attorney's office.

Now the government was particularly anxious 4 punish Minty, who was, perhaps, THE BLACKKST OF ALL THE ROGUES in the ‘Ring,’ sellig the government stamp and bo- jug the central figure in a most extensive network of frauds on the revenue, and this escape of Minty has deen a serious warning to the officials engaged in the prosecutio The Grand Jury, after listening to the testimony of the two witnesses named above, adjourned at hall-past two o'clock in the afternoon until ten o'clock | to-morrow morning. Some of the important witnesses will be called to-morrow, when the session will proba- biy bea longer one. Assistant District Attorney Burke @ Ves it as his opinion that no indictments in the whis, Key cases will be banded into court before Saturday, GOVERNMENT LANIRNCT AP No additional distilleries or reet 7 bonded out to-day. It appears that the government's policy of leniency toward the distillers who have made clean breasts of their guilt and given important infor- mation leading to the arrest of the reaily guilty par- ties—pamely, the corrupt officials and politicians who enticed them into the “Ring” —is meeting with popu- Jar approbation. The /imrs and Zribune say this morn- ing, editorially, that these are the really guilty men, and that officers of tbe government and their wnoficial partners, who drove the distillers to the pere jon of these trauds, were really far more deserv- ing of punishment than the distille There seems to Be a good deal of sympathy generally with the last mentioned class ever since s appeared how they were forced by the officials into the conspiracy, they were assessed for political purpose was utterly imnpossible tor the honest to compete with the dishovest distiller, whon the latter could evade the tof taxes. When the first dishonest distilier into the “ring” (ormed by Hesing, Rem, Mil- Jer and their induentia! aids at Washington, the others could not go on with th business against such over- whelming Odds as he had, through the evasion of taxes, ‘wolens, they were GRINDING TYRANSY OF RESING AND RE!

It bas leaked out to-day that Hesing is 00 bo less than three distillers’ badus as bondsman—on the Lake Shore with 200 shares of his on coupons with 400 shares ‘and on the South Br with 260.

HANS YON BULOW. As the second season in New York of the above very remaykable German pianist draws to a close the pro- grammes at Chickering Hall become more and more interesting, ifnot always in the artistic value of the works presented, at least In their novelty, as far as the audiences are concerned. Mr, Theodore Thomas has | already introduced to us through his orchestra the | talented ¢leve of the Conservatoire of Paris and organist ofthe Church of the Madeleine, Charles Camille Saint Saens, wno has won @ high reputation as com- poser, organist and pianist, and who has recently been the recipient of the most flattering honors at St. Petersburg. Dr. Von Bilow commenced his concert last night by a suite from the pen of this composer for piano and violoncello, in which he was assisted by M. Aubert, The suite (opus 10, in D) was divided into the following movements:—Prelude, serenade, scherzo, romance and finale (fugue.) The serenade, scherzo and finale are exceedingly attractive, the first being the gem of the entire work, Itis as dainty and sparkling as if it came from the hands of Mendelssohn. The pre- lude is the weakest part of the suite and the romance is more labored than interesting. In the fugue the pianist gave full rein to his | impetuous spirit, and little was heard of the violon- cello, M, Aubert is a very tasteful and accomplished performer, and it would be difficult to find passages for the violoncello, calculated to test a virtuoso more thor- oughly, as regards technique, than occur in this work, Another composition for both those instruments played last night was the Introduction and Polonaise, opus 3, by Chopii It is not atavorable specimen of the piano poet’s style, being one of his earliest produc- tions and Jacking the exqnisite grace and delicacy that characterize his lacer works, Besides, the violoncello ig not an insirument calculated to do justice to the martial measures of the Polonaise, that embiem of Chopin’s Fatherland, trom which he drew bis noblest inspirations. The part of the pro- gramme in which Von Balow played alone was of more interest to the audience, as it served to show the won- derful powers of the pianist, undimmed by association with lesser lights. The “Vartations Serieuses,” opus | 54, by Mendelssohn, gave the pianist an opportunity to display bis extraordinary command of chiaro scuro effects on the piano, as im sevenseen variations on a simple theme it is difficult to’ avoid mo- notony of treatment, unless with one well versed in the contrasts and effects of | piano coloring. In the eighth and ninth variations, the triplets in which the the:ne is go beautifully placed fairly scintillated beneath the fleet fingers of the pianist, Six songs, without words, by the same composer, consisting of No, 3 of the first book, in A major (molto ace); No. 2, second book, in K fat (andanie No. 3, in E, third book (presto € moito vivace) 2, in A flat, fourth book (andante con moto) ; No. 3, in G minor, fourth book (presto agitato), and No. 4, in ©, sixth book (presto). The last work was played | with stch eam and brilliancy that it was unanimously redemanded, The cantatile movements, which the composer invests with such tenderness and poetry, seem not tw be in accord with Von Balow’s spirit. There is with him in such movements a hardness of rendering, @ positivism of conception and a lack of | the finer feeling and of that emotional touch that re. veals the inner beauty of the composition. He played four of Liszt's minor works, three, if we mistake Bot, illustrating Lamartine’s poems, “Cantique d’Amoor," “Le Lac’ and “Au Bord d’Une Source.” more of the salon or parlor order than works to be played in the concert hall, The frst is particularly noisy and correspondingly ineffective. ‘The Valse Im- promptu””’ was better than its predecessors from the same pen. Miss Rosa MeGeacby, soprano, was the vocalist ‘on the occasion, from the first act of “I Martiri,"’ and a selection from Mercadante’s “li Giuramento,"”” She labored undér the disadvantage of not having an orchestral accompa niment, where, according to her selections, it is absolutely necessary, but she created an ianpression 80 marked that the Philharmonic Society may be con- | gratulated on having secured such a soloist for their next concert at the Academy of Music, There were many poinis of noveity in ber rendering of the music of Donnizetti and Mercadante that were fully appreciated by the audience, MUSICAL AND DBAMATIC NOTES, English journals compiain that the musical societies give the “Messiah” too frequently and neglect Han- dol’s other works. Tom Taylor bas written anew play entitled “Anne Boleyn.” Miss Adelaide Neilson will play the heroine, to whom she is said to have a strong resemblance, The Kiralfys intend to build a theatre in Broad street, Philadelphia, which is to be opened by May 1, | for Centennial pertormances. One of the plays they intend to produce is “L'indépendance,” a historical | | drama in five acts and nine tableaux. THE STATEN LA STATEMENT OF WILLIAM H. PENDLETON. Since the arrest of Mr. jam H. Pendleton, the ‘D'S FERRY WAR, representative of the New York and Staten Island | Ferry Company, for an alleged contempt of an order of Court the excitement among the people of Staten Island has been revive: Yesterday he was visited by a Henao reporter, to whom he made the following statement :— The North Shore Staten Island Ferry Company in 1873 ascertained that the premises No. 1 East River, then octupied as a United States barge office, belonged to the city of New York; and the government con- sented (o occupy other quarters, to be procured for them, and to give up the premises, in order that te | Department of Docks might be enabled to provide the company with a suitable ferry sip, Upon thts being known, the Union Ferry Company, of Brooklyn made to the “Department of Docks for the premises for an additional ferry to Brooklyn and a competition then ensued between the two ferry mpanies for an award of the lease of the premises, Committees from the Union Ferry Company and the Norih Shore Staten Island Ferry Company were in- vited to appear before the Dock Commissioners, and a committee of prominent residents of Island also appeared and urged the claim Staten Isiand) upon the department for th one slip in the iterests of Richmond Coun They represented the discomfort and inconvenienc the people of Staten Island were put to for want of a proper terry slip, The Commissioners received bids trom both companies until they reached the sum of $10,000 per anuam, being ten times the amount re- ceived by the city (rom the adjoining ferry sp. After tue deliberation the Dock Department decided to give it to the ferr hmond county, at the highest rket price much as the ferries to.Brooklyne er 1.100 feet of bulkhead on the which ‘bey paid only $1 a r to tho Upon this the North Shore en Island Ferry Company bad hardiy erected | buildings, docks and ferry houses uecessary for the | ferry, then af opposition was put on against them in the interest of somebody who did not appear, The fall use of the slip was enjoined in a suit commenced by B. Delafield Smith, who was then Corporation Coun- sel; but the auit was actually carried om by the law | of Day Work & MENameo, the paid | Ferry Com. firn pany, Heory &. Davies, his son, and Mr, McNamee appeared as counsel for the city in ali the and in ail other suits which bave been inet city against this company. Is the city liable for the feegot this outside counsel of the Staten Island Rail- way Company! The taxpayers are imterested in tho answer to this question. If the city is pot liable for compensation for the services of these counsel it be- comes @ question as to the propriety of the practices of the Corporation Counsel. Afver the Nortieshore Staten Island ferry had been ed the sources whence the opposition proceeded, and, obtaining the consent of the Department of Doc! | to use the premises for another ferry company to run ferry from that pier to Stapleton, Staten isiand, in the interest of the people on that side of Staten Island, it extended tbat privilege to the New York and Staten Island Fer company. Immediately tion was commenced and an injunction obtained ro- straining the New York and Staten Isiand Ferry Com- pany from ig these premises: heir lease. nder ti As soon as the question was raised as to the right of the company to use the ines for this purpose, the stockholders immediately considered the and thev were ad- completed District Attorney Lockwood proceeded to | ‘They are She sang the romanza and caballetta | n | [tis probable that the representatives of the bank- | along the East River resounded, as | and as yot refuse to consider any compromise. ing from pier 1 East River for some time it dis- | vised by their counsel of their right to do eo, They im- | mediately dd eo, A short time after an injunction was served upon the New York and Staten Island Ferry | Company to prevent them from running @ ferry irom pier No, 1 East River to Staten Island, Within a day or two a further suit instituted, claiming that both companies and their presidents had violated the order | | of Court by disposing of the boat, based on affidavits work to on merely information and belief, The alle- gation of the plaintiff, upon information and belief, | was absolutely denied. | In the meantime the New York and Staten Island Ferry Company, to remove all doubt as to their propri- ety in maintaining and operating’a ferry, proceeded to | comply with all the demands of the plaintif, and sought to obiain the franchise and establisn the ferry, and | | upen application to the Committee on Ferries of the | | Common Council, a report was made by the committee | | that, in sts opinion, the establishment of an additional | | ferry from the city to Staten Island wus demanded by | | the daily augmenting trafic between the two islands, | in order to afford business men and residents in both | places the proper facilities for travel, and recommended | the following resolution, which was passed :— | ‘That a ferry be, and 1s hereby established to ron | from the bulkhead foot of Whitehall street, New York | city, to Staten Island, the franchise to be sold at public auction to the highest bidder,” which was carried by a majority of 16 to L. Thereupon the Commissioners of the Sinking Fund advertised for sealed bids for the lease of the franchise for a term to expire May 1, 1884, the time at which the | leave of the North Shore and the New York and Staten Island Ferry companies would expire, requiring that | bidders should offer to state the maximum percentage | ob the gross receipts which the persons offering to take such ferry would pay, but that no lease would be given atless than the mimimum rate of two and half per cent on the gross receipis, and further requiring that security satistactory to the Comptroller would be re- quired for the punctual performance by the lessees of the covenants of the leaso of the franchise in their be- | half, On the 4th of January, 1876, the bids received were opened in the Comptroller's office, when the following | bids were made:— The Staten Island Railway Ferry Company, already | claiming to hold a lease of a franchise to ran to Staten | Island, made a bid for this additional franchise, offering five per cent of the gross receipts; the New York and | Staten Island Ferry Company, the ferry company et | cent; a Mfr, John H. Starin, representing the opposition to the North Shoro Staten island Ferry Company, es- tablished upon their occupation of pier No. 1 Kast | River, offered fifty per cent of the gross receipts of this | | new ferry. | Sinking Fund Commissioners, the mterests of the city | and of the public will be best promoted by awarding the lease of the franchise to a bidder who clarms to be able to pay one-half of the receipts of the ferry to the city before its expenses are paid rather than wo a com- pany organized in the interests of the people, who offer to pay four times the appraised value, and immediately operate it, having secured already the support of the people and a lease of the premises, CENTRAL PARK SAVINGS BANK. A meeting of the committee appointed by the de- | positors of the Central Park Savings Bank at their last meeting was held last evening at Brevoort Hall, Mr, | George J. Wood presiding, and the other members of the committee, Messrs, Timothy Donovan, John Bur- | langon, Horatio F, Averill and Francis Durning, being | present. It was stated that the total amount of the bank's liabilities was $77,388 23, while the assets were | estimated at about $66,650. Mr. Averill, who {s also counsel to the depositors, submitted a report setting forth that he had seen some | of the officers of the suspended institution and also the | receiver, and that the latter signified his willingness | to prosecute the trusiees civilly and even crim- j inally, if the depositors thought {t necessary. | According to the report, Mr. Thothas Gearty, the last | | president of the bank, states that he and Mr. Redman | and Mr. Jobn G. Cary, the vico president, took a deed of the property at the corner of Third avenue and For- | ty-eighth strest, at the request of the trustees, for | $74,000, giving the owner $10 000 cash and their indivi- dual mortgages for $64,500. The bank, he says, has Rott joined and holding the lease of the pier, offered ten per | ity ¢ It remains to be seen whether, in the opinion of the | crite sustained losses as lollows:— | Cost of charter. | | Fixtares, &c 300 | | Robbery... 500 | By raised check...... eresece 8,000 | Fitting up the butiding No, 724 Third avenue, 2,000 | Expense in excess of earnings iv the past six | years... a, 9,000 | | Total. +++ $21,500 | Mr. Gearty cli as been largely in- | solvent for several years and says its failure was caused | by the suspension of the Third Avenue Bank. He | | states that there was originally, due bim on bis con- | tract for building the bank $32,500; that $11,000 of | this amount was paid by mortgages transferred to him | and that he was paid $5,000 more in cash, On October + 18, 1875, there was a deficiency reported of $6,250, and | this amount, he says, was made up by the trustees, he | himself deducting $5,000 from the amount due bim on ; his eee ee as to allow the bank to go on He | | also paid $700 to the erchitect and others. Th | report gees on to sas that the ap. | | parent profit to Mr, Gearty was $4,350, which he claims was more than made up by his gilt of $5,000, The figares show that the bank property ac- tually cost $62,877, and he contends that itis really | worth that, and says in af offhand manner that he | would give $60,000 for it on time. At the valuation of $60,000, with the mortgages of $11,600 and $24,500 de- | ducted, ‘the balance remaining would be $24,000 with which to pay $40,000 to the depositors, This report was accepted by the committee, and will be presented to the depositors at an early day. H BANK SURPLUSE The following is the summary of the report of the | erence to the assessment of bank shares:— In the report of this department tor the quarter end- ing September 30, reference was made to the necessity | imposed by a recent judicial coustruction of the law of | | adopting a different method from that heretofore used im assessing the stockholders of banks. Thisannounce- ment has given rise to a good deal of discussion, based, in part, upon a misapprehension. All other cor- | porations ure assessed specifically upon the | surplus earnings, and an impression ha’ eb- tained that the “stockholders of banks were wo be | assessed hI manner, It 18 nog proposed to assess the surplus earnings of banks, but to assess | the shares of stock at sheir value, the surplus being | simply the measure by which the value may be de- | termined. | The essoctated banks have considered the subject | in council and have expressed their sentiments and | purposes in resolutions. ‘The utterances of so large and influentiai a body of capitalists are entitled to consideration, The declaration that the liability of. | the banks and their stockholders to indefinite taxa | tion by the general and State governments renders An appeal to both governments a necessity is one | with which no fault peed be found. Section 6, chap- | wer 761, of the Laws of 1866 provides:— : | For the purpose of collecting such taxes, and in addition to any other luws of this State, not in conflict with tc constl. | tution of the United States, relative to the imposition of | taxes, it shall be the duty of every such bank or banking as- | sociation, and the managing officer or officers thereof, to re- } Saim as much of any dividend of dividends velonging to such stockholder as shall be necessary to pay any taxes assessed in pursuance of this act, until it shall be made to appear to such officers that such taxes have been paid. Thus it will be seen that after the confirmation of the taxes the banks will be at liberty to pay very few, tf } any, of their 25,060 stockholders a dividend until the stockholder shal! present to the bank officer a receipt | for the tax upon his shares. The city Treasury will | probably be the gainer rather than the loser by this pro- cess, Heretofore the banks have paid the tax in bulk, gen- | eraily soon after the books were opened to rece taxes, obtaining thereby a rebate or discount at a rat dhen in excess of the rate which the city was paying for temporary loans. By the method proposed the amount of this rebate will be largely reduced, and probably equalled by the penalty, at the rate of one per cent por month, which lockholders will incur by neglecting to make an early payment. It is certainly unfortunate for the | banking interest that litigation between the two banks | should have evoked the dictum of the Supreme Court, | which has compelied the Commissioners to adopt the present course ata time so unpropitious, when taxes are at their highest and prgits on capital at their low. | est mark, ing ‘capital of this ety will subject the law under which the tax 1s to be levied to the severest possible | test in the highest courts. The Commissioners have met that interest with courtesy and firmness and avowed their purpose to discharge their duties without the agency of any annoyance of detoil which can prop. erly be avoided, without conceding any point whieh may jeopardize the rights of the city, Although the course of the Board hus been criticised by the repre- sentatives of the asgociated banks with unnecessary acrimony the Commissioners do not mtend that a sin- gie grain of resentment shail fall into the balance which it istheir duty to poise. THE CALKERS. Tho ship carpenters, having determined to accept the proposition of their employers in the matter of wages, went to work yesterday, and again the screw docks jal, with the din The calkers, however, steadily hold out, Yester+ day the corners fronting on South street were lined with loungers discussing the situation, and, judging trom the disposition generally expressed it would be difficult wo induee the great body of the men to apcept the reduce tion. A disposition, however, was evinced to treat the doskes courteously, tq avoid ‘any display of neediess hostility and to well consider all propositions of com Promise betore dismissing them, Some men who were interviewed by the reporter claumed that the reduction could in no way be of ulterior service to them, as the | Work now done at the New York docks such as | could Dot readily be done elsewhere, and there was no probability of a decrease in rates bringing in more, They said thas the shipwrights themselves sometimes cause | merchants to take their ships elsewhere on account of | their high ci 8 for dockage and the protit they ex- pect to make on labor. A member of a representative firm interested in the dock business denied these statements, aud showed figures that appeared to controvert them in some points He said hod beacon: could not be called & strike ag yet, but if it assumed such portions: bosses were able to hold out. Sw omy: Last of the calkers was held in Bo- of labor, WHERE ARE THE POLICE? ‘As Mr. Joseph Crawshaw was passing the cornér of Sixty-eighth street and Madison avenue, about olev o'clock on Tuesday night, he was attacked by two rob- bere, and only escaped by freely using asword cane which he carried. The residents of this vicinity are much annoyed by the prevalence of burglaries which are carried on ip the most audacious manner, tb police being ‘uvariably absens when they are wanted. It is said that burglars elimb up vo the front windows of the houses and coolly examine the rooms, seemingly assured that there is no danger of distur! auce irom the police, In Mr. Crawshaw’s case active search failed to discover the evidence of a single policeman for blocks around, A little more vigilance ‘op the part of the force m this neighborhood would be desirable.
